Argh...we're going to see a lot of Lakers today aren't we...

Full WNBA gameplay:

Lynx vs. Storm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yunzmXFD5yk
I also saw a clip in another video where Taurasi and Griner of the Mercury were scanned. Good news considering they're two of the most popular players in the whole league.

Dope they got different announcers. Not bad the crowd sounds somewhat different.

WNBA game-play looked pretty legit!

The WNBA has its own Broadcast Team, wow! That's impressive.

The WNBA commentary sounds more natural and cohesive than the NBA Commentary.

Why in God's name does LeBron have a headband on the 2016 Cavaliers and Kyrie has his current player model with the longer hair, when in the screenshot announcing the inclusion of the 2015-2016 Cavaliers into the game, Kyrie had his shorter hair that was accurate to 2016 and LeBron had no headband, which is also accurate to 2016? Come on man!

Thank you !!!
That’s what I was waiting for.
Lowry got some Major attention this year. His sig style I’d amizing. Dribbling, defense, shooting, step backs.....incredible.

Updated T-Mac! (@ 8:50)
EDIT: And looks like an updated Yao too!

I stopped the video at the 04 Pistons and no Sheed and Prince, at least we have a better CAP system to add them in.

No Ginobili or Joe Johnson this year

How do you know there is no Ginobili?

Not liking of of that. Guess I'll try the demo now.

I'm probably crazy but the WNBA movements look more natural than the NBA

I felt the same way about the WNBA in the other game and I’m kinda seeing what your seeing as well.

Womens are just more fluid and gracious :o:

I wonder if the WNBA announcers are like the fake announcers from NFL2K football games. That's pretty awesome and maybe that will lead to more broadcast teams in the game.

Lakers were pumped it was halftime

One of these videos went through the team select screen and Joe Johnson wasn't in the starting lineup for 05 Suns, same for Ginobili (who was a starter that year) on the 05 Spurs.
But I'm happy to see that Havlicek is still in despite recently passing away.

I am 13 seconds into the video and... this presentation... :y12::y12::y12::y12:

Thank heavens they fixed him!

Wow! Every year I say that 2K has gone as far as they can, and they up the ante even more to reel me back in! 2K and Visual Concepts just simply know how to do it. Period.

Classic players in the first year of retirement more than likely won't be in the game at release (remember Nash), only exception I can think of: Kobe.

I'd hope so given their popularity. I pointed out in another thread how they weren't scanned in the WNBA trailer. So thats good to hear.

Mac looks good! His movement/jump shot looks a lot better too! Loving that.....

Fun checking these videos out but man it's a little rough wading through all the "YO GUYS WHAT'S UP IT'S YA BOY!" intros.
Separately, I'm honestly considering running a season with the Seattle Storm.

Thats dope! I figured if they're adding 5K animations then there's no way they could miss out on those two, given there's only 12 teams.
2K continues to impress. Feel like this will easily be the best installment this generation.

Classic teams always seem to be. Quite inconsistent. And neglected.

Thankfully, Dirk Nowitzki is an exception to that because he's in this year.

d wade is sill on the classes

Players don’t leave the union until a full season after they retire, which is how Manu and Joe Johnson remained in 2K20. 2K21 is when they will need a new deal with Dirk and Wade.

The crowd reaction continues to be rotten . Listen to the first quarter of that Lakers game. It sounds like we're in church.
We need simple reactions that happen in a real game like a crowd cheering when the visiting team misses a free throw. Or how about booing a star like LeBron in Philly. Added touches of presentation and Atmosphere is still needed to add the immersion factor to next gen. Sigh.
Also hate to nitpick , but where do the cheerleaders disappear to during gameplay? Arent they usually cheering on the side behind one of the hoops?? Again . Added touches. Needed for immersion factor. Little things add up!!!
Gameplay ??
Looks good.

It seems like 2k20 is the game of pandering for roster updates.
Between Zion on the all-time Pelicans despite not playing a single game for them, Kyle Kuzma being an 84 overall and 2014 Spurs Kawhi Leonard being 91 (absolutely ZERO justification for this), this may be the most narrative driven rosters we've seen so far.

Finally some Knicks gameplay lol

So I haven't watched all the vids yet and I can't remember seeing anything, but are we still have instances where the game makes you do the slowest layup animation possible at the rim so the AI can block it?

Does this mean Lenny Wilkens is out of the game completely? Was that team the only team/draft class he was a part of? If so that's a major blow because LOL at Paul George taking his spot and he should absolutely be on the Hawks AT roster..
It's also really annoying that they are replacing some of these guys with players like Doncic, JJJ, DLo, instead of adding a new legend.

I'm curious if he's included also because it's not a good sign as the was only on those All-Time teams.
They usually are thinking of two scenarios when adding more recent players to the All-Time teams:
1. They lost the rights to a specific player that previously occupied that roster spot.
2. Young fans can identify with the Zion/JJJ/D-Lo more than if they added the rights to someone from the 50's/60's/70'/80's/90's unfortunately.
I'd love to see them really utilize everyone they can via the NBRPA but the specific player has to not only be a member of the NBA Alumni but have filled out the likeness rights paperwork then it has to go thru the league for approval then finally 2K has to create the art for that player unless they had it previously.
Two other things apply for whenever a player may/may not be included:
1. The player has to have been in the NBA within one calendar year of the newest 2K release. For example, the player has to of been on a roster during the 2018-2019 season. Anything before last season likely means they are not going to be included... hence why you don't see David West, Chris Bosh, Aaron Brooks etc.
2. The player can reach a exclusive deal directly with 2K versus having to be included in NBARPA. That's usually reserved for top tier guys etc.

When, or where, is the CPU vs CPU gameplay? No way to tell how good the AI is until we see it in action against itself
