    I think it's a new one. They have their new secondary "Fleur de Bee" logo on the shorts (New Orleans exclusive from last year), and on the chest is a re-done "New Orleans" script that's supposedly in their new primary logo (it's pretty much the same logo but with the new font).

      5-5 online sounds great but its going to be interesting when all five members want to be Kobe and nobody else. And I wonder how they will handle substitutions and other similar facets. It's going to be interesting but if it works how great will that be. Can't wait.

            If five on five is done right, its going to be epic.

            However, playing people from OS will be key, as the chances of randomly finding 9 other guys that dont cheese will be like trying to pull matter out of a blackhole.

                That'd be a real step into the future of online sports right there.
                That would be incredible granted everyone knew their roles.

                One thing I love about 2K. When they drop a new game I know the old features that are still left in will not only work, but will get polished.

                I can't wait.

                    Well isn't that around when the demos have come out the last two years? Like 1-2 weeks before release?
                    I won't ask for Christmas or birthday gifts if you subscribe to the Operation Sports Newsletter (Not Just Another Roster Update). I write it, and it hits your inbox every Friday morning (for freeeeeee). We also have an official OS Discord you can now join.

                      That was the case last year, but unfortunately, many demos on the PSN have actually come out at the same time or later than the full-version releases.

                      Here's hoping for a timely demo release. I need to download and play all three NBA games this time 'round.
