Was wondering the same. At least the alley oop animations looked like 2k13. I kinda hoped with the guy they brought in for dunk mocap sessions, they would add some less athletic packages, too. But maybe the Euroleague thing was added later and they didn't have enough time to include less flashy packages, don't know...

Something small, that sounds a bit off...The sound of the dunks is the same as swishes.Go to 0.45 or 0.53 and listen for yourself...

It sounds way better to me but that's probably not ingame sounds anyway.

Swish and dunk sounds need a lot of work in 2K. We don't need that broken glass sound effect a la street fighter when a guy dunks the ball. Basketball is a very smooth and quiet game in terms of sounds.

Smooth might not be appropriate to describe it but I can't think of anything else.

Probably an old build with euroleague teams...I can't see any of the new gameplay features in this vid...

Have the 2K guys ever watched a Euroleague game or even watched a top 10 highlight? That double clutch dunk off an alley-oop completely threw me off. There's no point in putting these European teams in, if the gameplay is going to be like that. As someone said earlier, there's more reliance on fundamentals in the European game since the court is smaller and hardly anyone there is a great athlete. There's also different rules as well. The offense isn't allowed as much freedom as they are in the NBA.

I liked the speed with which Ray Allen threw that pass. It really seemed like he snapped his thumbs to give the pass more zip. I liked the block on Lebron when he was going for a layup.

Watching it again, I noticed that the crowd looks just like your typical NBA crowd. European crowds are just like soccer fans of European teams put into basketball stadiums. They have chants, banners and even flares. Where's the colour? Why is there no crowd lighting? It's so dark.

From the YT comments on the video, looks like the Euro fans approve, but it seems 2K missed a trick by not getting in 12-time Serbian champions Partizan Belgrade in the game.

heh I would expect the Euro League teams will have their ratings out of whack much like the classic teams....in essence the teams are just there like stray cats hanging out in your backyard....

All the head above the rim dunks are horrible looking, and the fact that this is just a play now feature made this Euroleague stuff a waste for me. Wish they put these teams in the association and mycareer modes.

it is clear that the first alley oop when i watch it again, can be done by :

- Vince Carter when he was young
- Griffin
- and other good dunker man

but not in europe!! or maybe just one time in 10 years!!

for the 3 pt lign i'm sure it is a euro distance. I hope!!
