After that, everyone’s name will be under the number. If a player chooses to keep a social justice message above for the remainder of the games, they can. It's actually the right decision so you easily know if a guy's last name is Peace or not (Jordan Clarkson looks a lot different from his Lakers days and I was confused when I saw him). One of the ways it feels like 2K is because fans have been replaced by cameras, providing angles we generally don't see during life basketball games. It does lead to a bit of an uncanny valley feel. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I think the new camera angles are cool as heck though. At least some of them. That Celtics/OKC clip is a blast, felt like sitting on the bench or at least in the seats that I can’t afford anyway.

Digby Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Also looks like they greatly expanded the sideline and baseline, er, lines on the court. I wonder if the original court that was being used in the scrimmages was too minimalist without filled-in paint surrounding the court, confusing the players/refs?

Digby Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Not sure if this is happening on the national broadcast. But I’m watching Celtics-Bucks on the local broadcast and the digital ads keep getting projected on the Bucks cream jerseys. They even moved the New Balance sponsor logos to floor space with less traffic in the middle of the game! Guess this is why chroma key is generally done with Nuclear Slime Green and not a very common shade of light wood grain.

Mr. Krabs Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 It's also cool how they digitally project the "home" team's logo and local ads on the courts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Scorcho Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Looks like you can choose between a civil rights phrase or your name, but not neither. Jimmy Butler started the game without a nameplate at all but the refs made him change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimball Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 The NBA has now added surnames to the back of the jerseys under the number. So the players that chose to keep the social justice sayings have clusterf--k of a design mess on the back. I knew this was going to happen, but it doesn't look good. I'll have to see if I can get a screenshot. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

Digby Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I was wondering about that when the Lakers already had it going. Don’t really see the need. Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimball Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 And, from my understanding that even if a player doesn't use a social justice saying the name will still be under the number like we've been with LeBron, AD, etc. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."
