NBA 2K12 Developer Insight #7 - Creating a Legend - Kobe Rated 94, LeBron 98

[thugnificant]

wade is highest rated in 2k11 and he still is no where close to unstopable same as kobe and lebron so i dont expect anything different.

Wade is one of those players who's game is hard to simulate in 2k11. Durant,Stoudamire,Blake Griffin, and Zach Randolph also fall under that category.

I wouldn't say Kobe will be tougher to stop in 2k12.

2k11 lacks the right animations and attributes to simulate them. Wade and Lebron uses athleticism and absurd lay-up attempts (sometimes flops ) to get to the line, while Kobe and Durant use craftiness.

With the additions of things like Hesitation attributes and better lay-up animations, Wade might finally get a closer simulation to Wade and Kobe might get a closer simulation to Kobe.

2k10 had Wade down better than 2k11, and that was because the first step was actually a factor.

I hate LeBron as much as I've ever hated an athlete, but come on man, you're coming across as incredibly bitter right now.

In association last year, my favourite thing to do was take an unused player and win most improved player. Looking forward to using this mode with guys like..
DeAndre Jordan
Derrick Favors
Gordon Hayward
Anthony Randolph
Patty Mills

They should lower Lebrick's rating to a 5 in the last seconds of the game... He was 1 for 19 in clutch situations last year. Either lower to a 5 or make it so he treats the ball like a hot potato and passes it off immediately in the final seconds. He doesnt have giant huevos like the Black Mamba.
