Great game with some nice updates on the already existing modes. The one update that stands out the most to me is the ability to dictate how your defense addresses pick and rolls. That level of detail in a game takes leaps and bounds towards truly making this a NBA simulation. - My preferred mode is MyCareer. The changes Spike Lee brought are...interesting. It's cool that they build up a story going into your NBA career as well as throughout your rookie season, but I would've liked for it to have been interactive. The cut scenes between games are essentially a movie (a lot of which was pulled from He Got Game) and you have no say or control over anything other than what college you attend. After your rookie season, the game shifts back into what has been the norm in previous generations of the game. - The 2K Pro-Am is nice! Being able to run 5 on 5 games with your created player has, for me, always been the coolest part of this franchise. Overall, if you own any other version of this game, I'd suggest you upgrade to this one ASAP.
