Hope so. Wang has always been big on the feel of jumpshooting in an NBA game so I'd expect that aspect to be improved.

That comment actually kinda worries me though. I didn't like how quick and explosive the aggressive shot blocks were in 2k10.

Heck, the flat footed canned contests were slower...that's just not right.

Umm is this the same guy on the other screenshot? Calf sleeve still going all the way down?
Yes, its Anthony Randolph. How do you know it's not just a long sock though?

Somebody needs to hit up Mike Wang on Twitter to see if he can give any insight...

Look at the other screenshot of J-Rich dunking (different angle). I think you can see Randolph there behing J-Rich. I'ts probably a calf sleeve, but it's still going all the way down.
I think it's a calf sleeve because on the screenshot where he's standing with his back to us, it looks like a calf sleeve - look closer.

Hope that doesn't mean a bunch of jumpshots are gonna be getting blocked again.

That's my worry as well, the really need to slow down and allow for a gather on those agressive swats.

the suction effect/urealistic closeout speeds were part of the problem as well, but hte core issue is how they defend jumpshots. Alot of the time, they jump like they're blocking layups/dunks.

QFT

My biggest beef with the game....twinkle toe closeouts I like to call them.
