I think it's a memory issue. 2k is on record saying they were running out of space on current gen. If you compare features and content of 2k6 to 2k14 there is wayyyyyy more content in 2k14 that is potentially eating up space. That isn't an excuse for that bad KD on CG, that is just a bad scan job. Looking at the rookies in 2k14 lets you know they are capable of doing better work on CG.
