Ok.. Why in the HELL won't 2ksports do what they should have done in 2k11? They made a great game this year that had and still has the potential to grow to be the best basketball videogame ever! In NBA 2k11 there are still a few things that should have been in the game to make it the GREATEST BASKETBALL GAME OF ALLTIME! One Thing that screwed the game up is the Commentary, There is no way I would have made 2k11 without Bob costas and Marv Albert.... Don't get me wrong Harlen is good, But Bob Costas would have took the game to another level!!! I know Marv Albert couldn't get away from EA, but I know they could have signed Bob Costas. I love Steve Kerr and Harlan and they should be in the game far as when it comes to the late NBA... But because of them implementing alot of the old legends and old teams into the game There should have been Marv or Bob in the Game! They Need to Add BOB COSTAS period!!!!!

Unless there making it a three man team, i see no reason why 2k would bring kerr in when the games commentary is already amazing. Kerr is a good commentator, but certainly isn't any better than Kellogg, and in terms of video games, starting over with kerr would actually be a step back.

Actually, 2K has better audio than Madden. Madden just refers to players as "He" and not by name.

wont matter who Harlan partners up with since its going to be the SAME lines from the past...only thing will change will be he stories being told about the players...

i want virtual Craig Saiger back...seeing him in those suits was just a treat

This is great news.. I like Kellog and all... But when I hear his voice I think College basketball.

Everyone keeps calling for a choice in commentary, the problem is what are your choices. Almost every commentary team works for the ABC/ESPN conglomorate. We aren't getting Van Gundy Jackson or Hubie or the rest of the teams. The VG/Jackson group was to be in elite this year and we all know the steaming pile that was. The teams they can get are from Fox Sports or Local Team announcers. EA set a standard with NCAA 10 but I am happy with Kerr's addition.

Like I said earlier, I feel this is also for a TNT presentation. Harlan and Kerr are TNT commentators, for 2K11, 2K brought in a guy from TNT to help with the presentation. Too many people complain about wanting ESPN or ABC overlays and graphics, IMO this also hints TNT graphics in 2K12, and also a possibility of CHoops2K12 with Clark Kellogg being a commentator there.

aw man ...im going to miss Kellogs "Spurtability" line every game
 
# 72 aloncho11 @ 03/16/11 08:36 PM
I wonder what Steve will say about himself when any of the classic Bulls teams from the late 90's is in action

If 2K holds true to the past, then Kerr will just repeat all of CLark's lines the way Clark was brought in to repeat Kenny Smith's lines.
 
# 74 aloncho11 @ 03/17/11 01:18 AM
^ True. Let's hope some fresh and more varied commentary lines are added to Steve.
 
# 75 STLRams @ 03/17/11 12:33 PM
Nice move by 2K, Im glad they got Kerr instead of Kellog. Someone did raise a good point about Steve Kerr doing commentary during the 90 Bulls teams games, it would seem weird. Who knows maybe there will be a third commentator that 2K hasn't announced yet that will do the classic team games with Harlan.....

oh lord
if I have to hear the studious, understated & eloquent Steve Kerr say the word 'spurtability' in 2k12, I might have 'spewability.

imagine that in the old lives?

Marv: Melo is on fire here in the fourth!

Kerr: Yep, spurtability is what i call it Marv.

Marv: YES!!

Ha! In NBA Live he would usually joke about how unathletic/non-flash player he was. So he may keep it this way. But I have a feeling there will be no MJ/classic-Bulls teams in 2K12.

bout time 2k did something right
 
# 79 Strings74 @ 03/18/11 10:27 AM
The commentary in the game is good but I'm looking forward to a little fresh blood. Will be nice to have a little change-up next year.

By the way, whoever said that Marv isn't the best broadcaster of all time... I'm sorry but your opinion is wrong.

Top 5 NBA Commentators:

1. Marv
2. Marv
3. Marv
4. Marv
5. Breen

Although you know what would be absolutely hilarious? If we could get Walt Clyde Frasier as announcer on 2K12.

Seriously, if you sold a Clyde announcer option as DLC, I'd pay 50 bucks for it on top of the game. *chuckle*

Commentary should be more dynamic also. Bring what is in The Jordan Challenge to Exhibition, Season, Association and Playoffs modes. The announcers should get excited when a team is on a roll and talk about the player(s) and or team. The commentary is very good right now...but the announcers seem to have no emotion other than when joking with themselves or telling a hilarious story about a player.
