Nope.
Bulls inbound, Point Guard Mack Potter flings a 3/4 court shot...it's good!
Referees go to replay. They rule the basket good. Lakers win 110-109.
No mention of the 3/4 court buzzer beater in post game show. No mention of the buzzer beater in any of the social media headlines.
Pre game for the next game does Ernie mention the buzzer beater? No. He goes to the canned "...we get our first change of venue, but what hasn't changed is my two colleagues..." blather.
Blurring the boundaries between a video game and the real world? Not so much.

General reaction "The presentation is so real!. It's like watching the real NBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Emperor's new suit is so cool!"

"82 regular season games, 3 rounds of the playoffs" to get right here.
MyLeague is 29 game seasons.

I play without the commentary. Even without the mistakes, it's repetitive. But I still hear the post game and pre game crap. Ernie, Shaq, and Kenny have little enough personality, much less their pre-recorded counterparts with their canned "personality".

Show me an example of a news article stating "wire to wire" victory or "dominate from opening tip" after a team trailed the entire first quarter, including falling behind by double digits.

Spurs never trailed, led by as many as 10 in the first quarter, ended the first quarter up 9. That's wire to wire, dominate from opening tip.
Game killer? No.
Detracts from immersion, the opposite of what's intended by adding social media posts in the game? Yes.

#1 - To bring up Trump or anything political in a NBA 2K17 section is really annoying. And your comparison to a video game tweet makes no sense.
#2 - However, because it's now been brought up. let me say a few things. To say that "Hillybilly Motherfuckers" impacted the electoral vote to get Trump in is also crazy. You do realize that both candidates are corrupt as hell right and part of a corrupt system? And that the choice was not that of the people regardless, those were not the two candidates we wanted up there, lets not act like we had any damn control over what the hell happened. Christ, the "protests" have been proven to be mostly paid protests (Ads on Craigslist asking for organized protests, for money, in most every damn city there was a protest). Keep thinking that we are helping make the decisions of who gets placed into office, those decisions are made in advance. Also to Arcane, I find your post pretty insulting, I am not a supporter of any of the candidates who ran, but your wording is shitty. And for the moderators who feel this post is insulting, please see the guy who called the guy who posted a hillbilly motherfucker.
#3 - fjjcommish - Where I do agree with others, is that your complaint does NOT deserve a thread. This complaint, and several others you made (mentioned above) are so petty I can't even believe it. I feel like handing you a copy of NBA 2k9 to see if you can enjoy yourself for even 5 minutes without nitpicking every little thing wrong with it. The amount of options/detail/authenticity we get with these games are basically unmatched in the industry. It's an amazing VIDEO GAME experience, and a solid simulation. Spend your time complaining about gameplay issues you see that could be improved in either a patch or 2k18.
Lastly, to Arcane again. I don't know you personally, and I don't see you post on here often. And I am sure you have a reason for your opinions, as do I. But to lash out on someone as a hillybilly motherfucker, and stereotype the crap out of someone who made a petty complaint about a game and just said the name "Trump", is absolutely insane. All of this Trump/Clinton political garbage pits the population against eachother, creating unnecessary labels, name calling, stereotyping, racism, bigotry, etc... Stop that nonsense, you are completely falling into the media propaganda trap. That's what creates the damn divide.
I would actually like to see this thread deleted off of this section, because I don't want anybody thinking that this is what NLSC is about, or that people with actual titles on here act like that or even lash out.
