Not bad, almost good
2k8 was a letdown aswell
2k7 was a success. The pace of the game was perfect. I didnt need to adjust it at all. the dunks and blocks all looked so realistic but stylish. graphics werent bad either.
The dribbling system was a fail, and putbacks are immpossible to stop if you dont box out. the whole concept of a shot stick also failed hard for 2k7.
But all of those ideas were eventually put into 2k9 and 10, which are great games.
little things in this game, like an in depth dynasty mode, kenny's halftime stamp show, and monthly online records are what made this game fun.
I would always stay online till 3 in the morning to play with my friend, lakers vs suns, or raptors vs pistons. Every game was decided in the final minute.
Its like the gamne was designed to be exciting.
