Miller is the worse lol. I want him in the game but not as an announcer.

Once again 2k amazes me. Only thing more I could want is D League but this sounds like I will spend many hours in myleague and Pro-am (trying to be an elite team)

Most elements - not all. I really am glad we got Team Rosters back with 10 people - owner doesn't need to be present for team to play this year, either.

Great Job LD2K looking foward to playing this

You know, I'm starting to get a little worried about this shot stick thing. Listening to the YouTube videos of those who went out to test the game, it's starting to sound like this shot stick shooting vs button shooting is going to be overpowering, almost to the point of detrimental.

Honestly, I hope my fears are wrong, but I've got this unnerving feeling that shot stick shooting (and the bonus that comes with it) is going to be almost Patch 4 2K15-like, especially when compared to shooting with the button.

All sounds good - I hope there is some improved AI roster management. Nothing worse than seeing a team who has 2 or even 3 solid PG draft or sign another PG when they only have 1 centre on their squad.

I have heard that Madden 17 does a really good job of this so hoping 2k can match that

ok so ive been thru two 2K17 posts within 5 minutes...and im astonished
my gawd the news is great so far..

but what peaks my interest is

NBA 2K17 now has a total of 11 commentators. Some are familiar faces -- such as Kevin Harlan, Greg Anthony, Shaq and Ernie -- while others are new, including Brent Berry, Steve Smith, Doris Burke, Chris Webber, and David Aldridge. The commentary team is based geographically, so depending on which arena you're playing in, you'll hear from different commentary teams.


there's a possibility of Breen and Walt Clyde??

But there is going to be more skill involved in getting it right so shouldn't you be rewarded more for that?

Button shooting may still be the way to go for open jumpers or whatever but I'm looking forward to learning a new in game skill and seeing the way that works and impact it has. Ive always been a button shooter but will definitely be learning the sticks for 17.

Heh, you'll say that until people begin to splash ridiculous shots, contested or not. Won't see it early on, but would probably begin to happen once people get used to the new mechanic. And that's where it gets worrisome.
