How about they just make a college game, with a career mode that starts from higschools to college basketball and the. Have players import into nba 2k through the continuation of a well in depth career mode .

That's just my opinion though.
I highly doubt they would obtain licenses from a number of College schools to only use their brand and name for a simple cut scene or two. That would upset the community heavily and show how shallow the mode is.

Side Note: I never saw any mention or any indication of Summer League being implemented in MyCareer Mode.

Laws the law. You need the licenses to use their logos and stuff. If Spike wanted the back story they needed to pay for those licenses.

I just don't see it being anything more than that. It's too deep. Too much work to fit inside a year when you take into account all the other game modes they're focusing on now.

I hope I'm wrong. But I just don't see it.

Eh, it's very possible that that's exactly why they did it. It does seem unlikely to pay the prices for just that. Majority of those schools charge a 15% royalty rate for the use of their trademarks.

Hey King_B_Mack and Phreezy P, I've updated the story w/ credit. We ALWAYS give credit where credit is due.

Phreezy, if you can send me the video, I'll be sure to add it to the post. King_B_Mack, send me the original post where you found it. I can't seem to find the original.

23, you of all people should know we always give credit.

My guess as well. 2K will probably start you as a senior playing in a high school state championship game, then decide where you go to college, then have you play in the elite eight all the way to the National Championship. After that, you declare for the NBA Draft. The story begins...
