Not of that level, but it was as close as they gotten to duplicating this...
Ever since 2k13 the legends arenas have been completely devoid of life. The colours and lighting are flat and there are almost no arena/music cues that play during the game apart from the generic 'CHARGE!' that you hear in just about every arena in the game. 2K11 & 12 had the arena's NAILED in terms of sound. Wish I still had audio recordings of the 89 Pistons court - that was tight as hell!!

I'm ashamed I didn't even think of that. I revoke my MJ fan status, effective immediately ;-)

Also, hand size and mental strength should matter in the game especially for MJ. The ball should be somewhat glued to his hands because of his gigantic hands, strength and mentality. Even when he literally gets smacked on the head by multiple defenders or shoved in mid-air for a potential injury, the dude just doesn't lose control. It's sad how 2K act like MJ is some soft generic superstars that you see today so that kids can own MJ with their favorite players in the game.
100% agreed. Jordan could do incredible things with those huge mitts, which is why I firmly believe he needs his layup package reworked to include some of his more famous one handed layups, c'mon - MJ was the KING of circus shots, he deserves far more attention!

Hell - the layup below was actually IN 2K11 and they removed it.
