The demo just isn't grabbing me, and with minimal to no changes to Be A GM, I don't see myself playing this game for very long, especially once NBA 2K12 drops. EA, if you want to include Legends into your game, take some notes from 2K on how to do it properly.

I may look to pick this up around the holidays when it goes on sale, but I can't justify spending $60 on a game that I've played over and over again. When EA decides to update the commentary and presentation, not to mention give us a lot more options in Be A GM (mid-game saves, customizable season length, etc.), I will gladly drop $60 for that game.
This is what I'm worried about as well. I love the new stat tracker.
But the longevity of this game will center around Be A GM and Be A Pro.
If neither has made that many strides, I don't know if I'll make it past Christmas with this game.

The gameplay is certainly improved, but since I'm a big offline gamer, I hope those modes can keep me interested throughout the season.
