Re: NBA 2K12 Video - Los Angeles Clippers vs. Boston Celtics (OS Exclusive)

Positives:
-I'm actually loving how the CPU is playing. They are going to they're main guys Griffin and Gordon. And I don't believe I saw them run the same exact play twice. They may have run a similar play but it was on the opposite side of the court or they chose a different option. Also I love how Blake Griffin was so aware of when to set a pick, on one possesion I saw him set 3 perimeter picks when a play wasn't even running.
-The jumpshooting is very smooth; there are no hitches involved and and it looks like the days of getting your jumpshot blocked from rediculous places is gone.
-I liked the animation choices that the game made around the hoop. No more elongated contact animations down low when most NBA players are skilled enough to find a way to put up a clean shot.
-The post game looks completely overhauled for sure, looks like KG has a new post fadeaway. Also the post entries look MUCH better
- Ray Allen's new sig shot looks noooiccee. As well as everybody else's, minus Gordon.
-At 5:26, I love how Rondo began to initiate a euro step but since there was defense in front of him, he was stopped in his tracks and was forced to put up an ugly shot. NICE.
-I loved the final play of the video when O'Neal got blocked by Griffin. Looked smooth and realistic, not canned at all.
Negatives
-The CPU passed up a couple open shots.
-That Griffin layup... yuck.
-Ronnie is not too skilled at the game, seemed like he was trying to spam the paint with Rondo (maybe intentionally?)

Overall this video was great and definitely an improvement from last year in every aspect. Can't wait to get my hands on this game.
