NBA 2K9 Video: Lakers vs. Celtics

Re: NBA 2K9: Lakers vs. Celtics (User vs. CPU - Slider Speed @ 40)

I dont think there is much of a difference between Clark and Kenny. I thought Kenny was pretty bad. I think we as a whole place too much emphasis on commentary. There are tons of games released each year and only two have it right (The Show and Live) and even on those games I eventually ignore the commentary. Doesnt excuse the poor commentray but just putting it in perspective.

On the positive front, it sounds like they fixed the crowd. The crowd sounds great and I dont remember a "Lets Go Celtics" chant last year.

Yea there isn't, I just like the sound of Kenny's voice better(no homo,lol). Clark sounds like he's really really reading the script. Either way it doesn't make a difference to me. I agree with you that this board is a little too obsessed with commentary. It has never ruined a game for me. Also co-sign on the crowd.

Man, I thought Big Rob said they were going to fix players walking to their position on a broken play. I was almost screaming at my computer screen when I seen PP walk in slow motion to the 3 line. Some of the new plays in that video are directly from College Hoops which isn't a bad thing. Really wish they would give Derek Fisher a good shot, I always thought that Chris Bosh's shot on 2k7 would be PERFECT for D-Fish but they still keep giving him knock offs

I missed the opportunity yesterday, but this time I'll ask...

Please don't respond to this dude. He hasn't posted anything positive or thoughtful and is just baiting people. The forum's a better place when people don't take the bait.

There you go again getting butt-hurt over a diferent opinion. Last time I checked, these forums were about discussion....negative and positive. Apparently being the 2K sheep yourself....you can't take constructive criticism.

Grow up man....it's just a video game.

Pathetic.

Gentlemen, constructive criticism at its finest...

The ONLY advantage that 2K9 has over Live 09 is the passing aspect. Everything else Live 09 comes out on top (by far).

I love the internet. The fact that people get their feelings hurt over mbps is hilarious.

40 is definitely too slow for me. College Hoops 2k8 had a game speed and a player speed slider. I loved the way the game played when I had the game speed at 60 and the player speed at 40.

If they didn't bring the player speed slider over to this game then that's unfortunate because with both those sliders everyone would be able to tune the game to flow exactly how they want it.

Enough of this crap... discuss the game not other posters

It was a re-hashed Rafer Alston's shot I think, maybe Udonis Haslem. Shooting from the side of the forehead instead of cocking it back like Bosh's shot on 2k7 did and like Fisher does in real life, and like how Boozer shoots.

2k8 had player and game speed but it was only in the season/association modes.

Looks like sliders might be good at maybe 45

You guys keep harping on the fact that PP got to the 3pt line slow on that last play, but good lord how can you miss the fact that KG was in prime post up position calling for the ball and Rondo completely ignored him in order to throw Pierce that pass?

I wonder if the sig shots are all still off of stand stills or if you can do them in motion if you're moving. Thats one thing that Im hoping they got in the game.

Overall... I need to see more

In reality Rafer kinda brings his shot from down low though and at an angle whereas Fish's shot is more like you're describing it. They should be nothing alike.

As an Association only player, that would great for me if its still there.

I also thought he was going to throw it down to KG cuz he was in his signatue post up position.
