Really? No, seriously: Really?

If you didn't see nuances and intricacies in that trailer, you must not have played some sort of enhanced version of 2K8. Because like 90% of that introduced animations I've never seen before, on top of the little things.

Billups looks back on a fast-break, almost as an insult to his defender. LeBron's "whoops-too-high" ducking on the alley-oop as the ball bounces off his head. Ray Allen's behind-the-back crossover. Jamal Crawford's "pick-up-the-ball" crossover. The crowd reaction to that Iggy alley at the end was PRICELESS. KG's smooth spin-and-hook into the heart of the D. And the millions of Pierce adjusted layups, that show off the new in-air collision.

There's a lot in a short period of time. Sure it's flashy, but why can't it be informative and flashy? That trailer has given me more information on how the game moves as a whole, than any written preview has. I'm seeing the game function, which is helluva lot more than we've been given in the past two months.

Don't be a Debbie Downer.

He goes from a fast break vs. Gordon(Deng), Gooden, and Noah.. and when it does the 2nd part of the move, he's in a half court setting vs Deng, Gooden, and Hinrich, with newly viewable teammates Eddy Curry and Zach Randolph..

Yeah man! I was on the jack with my dude telling him about it and I was like "wait...he hop-stepped twice.....ooohhhh...it's just 2 clips blended 2gether 4 effect". Cause I was like, what kinda funky travel was that!? lol

Maaan! It's over!!!

Wow, the skin textures look great in the higher-resolution video. That shot with KG raising his arms early on looks phenomenal, as does Pierce.

Cosign, was just about to comment on that. Just watched the trailer two more times, they really did a nice job on the skin textures.

I noticed Elton Brands head looks to be the proper size as opposed to the shrunken size in the teaser trailer.... lol

Lol, dude you are funny. First you bring up a subject that has been dead for a minute. You get mad about people noticing sliding in the game then you get indignant when people are excited. Calm yo self down and let people be.

It seems my man the Raptors mascot didn't get the memo about the jerseys having red on the sides.. Him and the Hawks mascot from last year need to get together and have a late-to-the-party party

It's just a damn video game. Unless you own stock in Take-Two, there's no reason for you to get all 'sensitive' about this. Jeez.

I'm not impressed with 2K9 at all.....(bleeping) sue me! It's my own opinion.

I guess when it comes to NBA 2K....some people are just blind sheep.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
I don't think you're equipped to get me mad. Your post had a few bulletpoints that I knew would discourage discussion, and encourage insults, flaming and return hyperbole.

You have the freedom to dislike 2k just as much as you have the freedom to express yourself in a respectful and intelligent matter. Too bad you picked the former, but not the latter as well.

That's life broheim. You can't dictate other people's emotions, only your own.
