    Game specific commentary is awesome, and this is an example why....

    I was playing Memphis @ LA Lakers, and Clark was talking about the Gasol brothers, comparing and contrasting their strengths and weaknesses. It was pretty cool.

    Off topic, I was playing a road game with the LA Clippers and every time I went to the line with Blake Griffin, the crowd started chanting "o-ver-ra-ted"

    Awesome job 2k

    I agree it's awesome and that's without starting an association yet. It really makes every game feel different. I love it when they go on about another subject relating to a player and then get back to the game.

      Presentation is amazing, huge step up from last year. Like someone else mentioned, its really cool how they discuss the players and then get back to the game. The only bad thing about that though is it can get repetitive if your playing an association with the same team, you hear them say the same things about players every game, buts its still cool to hear what they say about the opposing players.

        Awesome job 2k
        The best ever in a game thus far IMHO.
        When the game is on the line, winners want the ball.

                the bucks are bad whether redd plays or not. makes no difference.
                EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

                    I love how in My Player mode they comment on how it's your first game and when you score your first points they comment on that to and continue to talk about your player.

                      I love playing NBA Today games and get the commentators previewing an upcoming game or reflecting on one already played. Very, very good job.

                          The one thing that I have noticed in my player games anyway that has kinda bothered me though is when they talk about a player's previous performance they usually only do this for one team per player and it is almost always the pg since he is usually the one dribbling at the top of the key when nothing is happening. That really limits them talking about how some of the other players played in previous games including my player so I don't ever get to hear about how I am coming off a huge performance scoring 26 points or grabbing 18 rebounds or whatever.

                            hands down..it's the best b-ball sim..no doubt live has improved but just like boxing..you have to beat the champ to become the champ..EA give up that NFL lic. so 2K do it right again..
