It would be disappointing, but given they don't have the ability to do head scans/capture the classic players the drop in graphic fidelity between today's NBA and the Legends could be a little too jarring to make sense to try to incorporate in the game. And I could picture people complaining more about that than having an understanding that some things are physically impossible to do. Either way, no one should be leaping to conclusions regardless.

Everything sounds absolutely amazing but I pray to the heavens that there is a season mode in the game. It seems like association is no more.

But that's the only negative. I'd assume plenty of guys who use Association picture themselves as the GM anyway, why not make it so? Another thing would be full control, as in 30 Controlled Teams. Albert is looking into that.

He confirmed that "legends would be present in next gen"

Yep, I was thinking about that aspect when I learned of the head scans as well. And you're right, no need to jump to conclusions at this point, but I surely would have preferred to hear something about classics than to not hear something. I'm hoping there's a way for 2K to include faces they're not able to physically scan firsthand.

I really liked hearing about the Emotion+, the different arena lighting, wing spans and coaching adjustments. Would have liked to hear more about gameplay though especially player tendencies.

I have no interest in My Player or Crew modes.

Still waiting on any footage to be shown.

I don't remember his exact words, but he said that classic teams are in basically. It didn't sound like there would be any subtractions.

All I took away from this was:

"..No warmup outfit for bench players.."

Disappointment!
