[videlsports]

As long as they keep all tree I'll be happy, if they make college hoops again, then I want Clark ellog to do College Hoops, But I LOve Kevi Harlen, He has good broadcast, and he makes the games exciting.

We Want Chuck! We need his Trillness...

Him + Hubie Brown/Van Gundy = Perfecto to me, commentary would be better than the gameplay

Well, not all "we", I don't like Barkley's remarks/style. And you mean you want Barkley as a play by play announcer? I guess, to each their own

I do agree about Hubie and Van Gundy, though.


The problem with Kerr may be that he won't want/allowed to repeat some (all?) lines from NBA Live. Which may mean that he'll need some new lines. Anyway, a new commentator means not many lines. It always takes about 3 titles to get the commentary more enjoyable.

Maybe this move can help them get a TNT exclusive presentation, now that both announcers are from TNT, although I think Harlan works with Reggie, not sure..

What does a network license add other than the graphic layouts? I'm so used to 2K's non-license presentation, that I'm actually wondering what would a license add, other than the layots?

Please get Mark Jackson!! He's the best commentator. "mama, there goes that man". or the classic. Hand down, man down

Man that would be a dream. I would love to get the Mike Breen, JVG, and Marc Jackson combo. And then have the TNT guys do some kind of weekly wrap up or halftime show. Since NBA Elite didn't come out, is it possible for 2K to get any of the commentators that were in the game?

Awesome! Kerr did so well in live.

Re: NBA 2K12 - Steve Kerr to Join Kevin Harlan on Commentary Team

The Breen/JVG/Jackson would be a HUGE improvement to me too. The actual commentary is good overall, but not at the level of the gameplay, and that would make the game trully complete.
"You know the rule, hand down, man down!"

Yea 2k should do a weekly show like did the collge game with highlights talk about the players around. The nba.

[Tommyklaid]

I actually don't mind Clark.....but I'd rather have somebody who ACTUALLY odes NBA games. I think this is a good move.

Plus....Steve Kerr was one of the few things I liked about Live.

This is GREAT news!!!

Finally, a duo that ACTUALL DOES the broadcast....

The biggest thing in broadcasting: the play-by-play and "color" commentators need to "mesh" and having two guys that broadcast together on a regular basis is HUGE....it adds a "realism" factor to the videogaming experience. I, for one, am always looking for my gaming experience to emmulate real-life .... so, this is GREAT news! Excited for NBA 2K12....they're presentation is above all the rest!

Re: NBA 2K12 - Steve Kerr to Join Kevin Harlan on Commentary Team

Hubie may be knowledgable i just can't stand listening to him because of how he talks. Too many times he's talking about something just kind of rambling to kill time until he sees the replay. He just talks too slow for my liking. Its not smooth and quick enough, he's always 2 steps behind the action. I'm not saying he doesnt know what he's talking about. Plus he's captain obvious with a lot of what he says. And he uses the phrase "now look" and the word "ok" way too much when starting what he's going to say or when he's watching a replay. Like he'll be watching the replay rambling about something waiting for the replay to show something and then when he finally sees something its "now look". Just something about the way he talks frustrates me. He says ok after everything. I absolutely hate it when he's doing a big game because it makes it less enjoyable to watch.

this guy isn't great but watch his Hubie Brown impression, he does a good job duplicating how he talks and how dumb it sounds. He doesnt sound like him voice wise but he gets his style down pretty good.

Now look, lol at your breakdown of hubie..funny but true. I find him to be a kinda crazy but entertaining old man for all the same reasons you listed. Ha ha...

[Shinyhubcaps]

Insane theory I'll throw out there: maybe Clark is being moved back to the College Hoops series?

Hubie would be awesome! His Basketball IQ and analysis of the game is outstanding.

It really is, I completely agree. If he is a commentator in an actual NBA game, even if I'm not interested in the game itself I'll watch it just to listen to this guy talk for two and a half hours. He knows so much and is just utterly brilliant about the game. He knows more about the game than anyone I've ever heard before. Also seems like a really good dude so that's cool too. Hubie would be a fantastic addition to the 2K Series, but I am also extremely satisfied that Steve Kerr and Kevin Harlan will be our commentators for now. That's one great duo.
