They didn't face scan deandre jordan, looks like the same player model from 2k16. His fro is much bigger now. Jimmy Butler, Demarcus Cousins's, Demar DeRozan & Kyle Lowry models looks the same as well. Thibdeau, greg pop and Jim boheim are also team USA coaches, why aren't they in the pic? The socks look like stockings and have no texture, shoestrings are big as hell and probably wont move when the players run, accessories have no branding just like all the previous 2k games. It also looks like body types and definition is a another thing that was neglected in this game again. sure, the gameplay is more important but if a video game doesnt look right, especially something that imitates life like this one, the experience can be hindered significantly imo. I know It seems like I'm nitpicking but these are oversights they've had since 2k14. The folks over at 2k can just come across as flat out lazy. (when it comes to details)

Klay looks like he's glowing like they upped the contrast on his skin. C'mon 2k fix that can't have him looking like he swallowed a light bulb lol.Comment

I didn't get the bulky argument at first but NBA players are built more like runners and swimmers than football players the more you look at it.
The legs definitely look better though.Comment

Lets talk about it.
NBA players don't have wide waist lines
They aren't bulky they just have lean muscle..Even lifting weights, bulky is the last thing they go for.
The ones that do, shed more pounds before the summer ends because extra pounds is the last thing they need on their knees.
If you've ever worked out with an NBA player before you'd see they have serious lean muscle, much different than the average dude.
Most guys probably wear a pants size in the low 30's
Spoiler
That brings me to the shorts and unis. They are wide, but i can hardly find a picture where a player is moving and the shorts stay below the knee, not even the one you posted.
Kinda weird that its never looked at, ever.Comment

good job 2k.
i dont think the bodies look bulky at all. if anything its because they look less toned than normal NBA players.
but if 2k toned the muscles a bit folsk would say they look to muscular.
I personally think its height proportion issue. if Deander and Derozen were standing up theyd be a few inchers taller than every other player.Comment

This pic says it all. Westbrook is so stumpy in the game - he is considered "short" it seems. But that is by NBA standards. Looking at the above picture you can clearly see a lean, lankiness about him.
Long, lean, lanky.
I'd be encouraged if I knew someone at 2K were seeing/reading this stuff because you can't deny the fact after seeing some of the great examples being posted.Comment

Anyone else worried that 2k17 will just be 2k16 with an Olympic Theme added to it?Comment

Re: NBA 2K17 Screenshot - 2016 USA Basketball Men’s National Team w/ Coach K
No. I honestly don't think anyone else should be worried, either.
The tidbit they gave us about MyLeague shows us it's not just "2K16 with an Olympic theme"
When has 2K ever done something like give us the exact same game with a "theme" the next year?Comment

Not to be negative, just observant... but it has happened before, so it could definitely happen again.
2k16 is basically 2k15, but with Spike Lee's story added to it... Imagine what other improvements they could have made if they didn't waste all that time making Spike Lee's terrible story?Comment

Re: NBA 2K17 Screenshot - 2016 USA Basketball Men’s National Team w/ Coach K
Pretty much every 2K player has too big of a waist. Shoulders too broad. Legs too thick.
So 2K, tell us about that body-scanning again.Comment
