It's a far more intimate setting as the crowd is literally court side. 2K mirrors a TV presentation almost perfectly. Madden feels like it's mostly going for wanting that feeling of being on the field or something more cinematic. There's a lot of downtime in a football game so there will always be more random scenes of the crowd and stadium. Basketball is go go go and most of the crowd interaction takes place and can be seen in the first 20 or so rows. Sent from my Pixel 4a (5G) using Operation Sports mobile app

True, but I feel like no basketball game I watch has the crowds completely lights out in the middle and top rows. Earlier 2K’s (like PS3 era) I feel had more accurate feels in that department as you could see the entire arena lit up.
