The best NBA 2K17 ‘Start Today’ teams for different challenges with the new year
Many look at Christmas Day as the unofficial start to the NBA season. It's an excessively long 82 game season after all with a great number of them being perceived as largely, if not completely meaningless. That has especially been the case in the age of "super teams" with fans just waiting for the Playoffs when those few teams will inevitably go head-to-head.
That however is something that can be played out differently in video games and the new 'Start Today' feature for MyLeague Mode in...
Christmas uniforms added to NBA 2K17

NBA 2K17’s next Park After Dark scheduled for December 30 with Future
The first ever Park After Dark held in late November turned out to be a pretty big bust for NBA 2K17. The concept of having music personalities DJ special Park events was intriguing but the servers simply haven't shown the capability of handling event-type crowds. Needless to say it was a poorly conceived idea by 2K Sports to promote a feature that was specifically designed to draw as many people possible at one time onto the servers.
Despite that the feature moves on to its second of at ...

Details on the fourth patch for NBA 2K17
The fourth post-release patch for NBA 2K17 is now available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well as on PC. The earlier updates made to the game have addressed the ability to release roster updates, added PS4 Pro support, fixed the shot meter and various bugs, and tweaked gameplay and presentation. Despite that major issues have remained most notably related to CPU defensive AI and the game's online Pro-Am mode.
The new patch doesn't note any changes to the big defensive AIÂ concerns tha...
