Looking back on the old posts, I think any sort of "stiff" animation I saw was the running, at least when they went to help their defender, the transition from guarding to running was a bit jerky, but I think this game looks great.
The GIF of curry's shot, the animation (at least in the legs) looks a bit weird, like it goes STRAIGHT up and he looks a bit leaned back, besides that this game is really shaping up to look good. EA has always had issues with animations and how they look, but at the same time, it's always felt more physics based than 2k, everyone shames 2k for the mass amount of animations they rely on. It's disgusting at times.
Live's past couple games (this and 16) has graphics/visuals that blow 2K out of the water IMO. With 2K you can tell it's a game, it's too saturated, players look too alike, and have a certain cartoony feel from 2K, etc. But Live has always had realistic color schemes (kind of "washed out" and whatnot), their issue has just been animations, while they rely on it less than 2K, 2K still beats them in that department.
I wanted to like 16 so much even with it's flaws, but I'm actually hyped for this game, as much as I don't want to get my hopes up
