2KGAME'S NBA2K SERIES AND EASPROTS' NBALIVE ARE TWO OF THE MOST POPULAR BASKETBALL GAMES AROUND THE WORLD. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThe latter once led the trend of basketball games in the 90s of the last century, leaving behind many classic works. But since 2006, 2KGAME, which was acquired by TAKE-TWO, suddenly exuded a strong explosive force, ousting the former king of this field from the throne. Become a unique presence in the entire basketball game market.

In October last year, in order to open up the Chinese game market with huge consumption potential, 2K09 released by 2KGAME deliberately launched a PC platform.

Simple interface, gorgeous game scenes, realistic character modeling, a variety of signature moves of the stars, and extremely realistic player ability values. As soon as this well-crafted game masterpiece came out, it was sought after by countless Chinese gamers (of course, the vast majority of them were pirated players).

However, after a short period of heated discussions, there is more and more negative information from the major game forums on the other side of the ocean to 2KGAME. Many Chinese players expressed strong dissatisfaction and doubts about the ability value of the Knicks Tanhua Show in this game.

In 2K09, the champion showed Derek. Ross and Kevin. Lefu tied for the top spot in the Super Platinum Generation with a total score of 80 points. Beasley was second with 79 points. Chinese player Sun Yi unexpectedly fought Russell, who was slashed by him for 61 points in the regular season. Westbrook also scored 77 points, which is not even as good as O.J. Mayo's 78 points.

In particular, as Chinese youngsters continue to play at a high level in the NBA, this wave of condemnation has intensified. Although these pirated users did not generate a single dollar profit for the company, the far-sighted senior management of the company took the incident very seriously.

Given the serious underestimation of the Knicks' ability in 2K09 and the large fan base that the league's best rookie has in China, 2K decided to invite Sun Yi to be the autographed star of the physical game discs.

For this low-paying endorsement cooperation, extremely shrewd agent Tony. Sorrentino immediately smelled the potential value.

With Sun Yi's amazing performance in the NBA last season, I believe that all those who love basketball know that this Chinese teenager has super strength and great potential.

But how strong is he? How much potential is there? It's hard for fans to have an intuitive idea. Then, as the most popular basketball game at the moment, the 2K series has become another stage to show the abilities of the players.

Many fans who can't watch the game often because of work or school are more likely to rely on this simulation game with a good reputation to judge the group of superstars in the league, who has the best ball control, whose mid-range shot is unsolvable, and whose breakthrough is sharp......

Sorrentino knows very well that the other party borrowed the mistakes of the previous generation of games, and the real purpose of the olive branch thrown to his boss this time is still related to the market with the greatest game consumption potential in the world behind Sun Yi.

As the agent of the league's best rookie, he also sees the opponent's dominance in the basketball game. As long as this cooperation goes well, I believe that 2K will spare no effort to promote this alliance superstar with a Chinese background.

Taking advantage of the few breaks during the training camp, Sun Yi was accompanied by his agent to the headquarters of 2K in Manhattan, New York.

In order to reflect the company's sincerity to this cooperation, the executive president, who rarely shows up, made a special trip with a group of subordinates to receive this very popular NBA rookie king at the company's front desk.

Before discussing the cooperation, Sun Yi visited the software R&D center, which is known as the heart of 2K. All kinds of jerky and difficult technical terms make the young Chinese guy confused.

The only thing that interested him was the simulation center, which specializes in making models of the characters' movements. In order to make the movements of the players in the game more realistic and vivid, 2KGAME has spent a lot of money to build this sports simulation center.

Through a large number of real-life game video analysis, the movement characteristics of each player are recorded in the form of data. Then, a professional simulator covered with sensors will copy each player's running, shooting, breakthrough and other actions in the three-dimensional modeling center.

It can be said that the styling and movements of each player in the game are the final version of these staff members after countless attempts against the reality model.

The working simulator suddenly removed the sensors on his body and walked out the door with an excited face after seeing the crowd outside the glass window.

"Hello, Sun! I'm a fan of yours, but now there's a favor that needs your help. ”

This guy who left his job at work didn't seem to simply come to say hello to his idol.

After listening to the other party's explanation, Sun Yi realized that people were in trouble, and this matter was really related to him.

Another problem that 2K09 has been questioned a lot by Chinese players is that the shooting action of the Knicks Tanhua Show in the game is too far from reality. It does not reflect Sun Yi's extremely high, ultra-long three-point dry pull-out and turn-back jumper.

As soon as the company got this feedback, it gave the simulation center a dead order that the 2K10, which is coming out this year, had to solve the problem.

The leader opened his mouth. The subordinate ran and broke his leg! It's the same in every country.

In order to replicate the league's best rookie shooting style, the simulation center used countless methods to solve it. With 2K10 just around the corner, the company was even looking for a new motion simulator who could do the job.

Sun Yi's arrival today has made the company veteran, who has simulated countless superstar signature moves for the 2K series, see the hope of saving his job.

The eager expression on the other party's face and the crying pleading really couldn't make the Chinese guy with good intentions say no.

When the Knicks changed into sports shorts under the guidance of the staff, his body was instantly covered with countless sensor threads. After the on-site staff confirmed that the equipment was working and everything was working properly, Sun Yi finally recreated his elegant shooting action that had captivated countless fans at the headquarters of 2K.

"Damn! Who can replicate such a bull X's vacancy and stagnation? ”

The action simulator who had just saved his job couldn't help but muttered in his heart after watching the performance of the Chinese guy up close.

More than half an hour later, the Knicks who completed the replication of his personal habits and movements were collectively saluted by all the staff of the 2K company's simulation center. Because, these guys finally don't have to work overtime until the early hours of the morning tonight.

After confirming the intention to sign the contract, 2K prepared an exclusive interview. When the time comes, it will be made into a disc and given as a giveaway to those who buy the original game.

Before the official recording of the show, Sun Yi learned about his ability in 2K10.

88 points!

This is a very high rating for a sophomore.

You must know that from the player rating sheet provided by the opponent, there are only eight players who have higher ability values than themselves. And these guys are all targets that Sun Yi keeps chasing, Kobe Bryant (97), James (96), Wade (96), Paul (94), Yao Ming (92), Howard (89), Delon. Williams (89), Garnett (89).

Stone Buddha Duncan, the prince of the Nuggets, Anthony, himself is tied with these two players destined to enter the Hall of Fame. Behind Sun Yi is Trail Blazers core guard Brandon. Roy, Celtics captain Paul. Pierce......

Buddy Kevin. Durant improved to 86 from 82 last year. Although Kroos lost to the Knicks in the Rookie of the Year selection, his better and better performance throughout the season still increased his ability by 4 points to 84.

This list of player abilities also includes the ratings of this year's rookies in the league. Blake, drafted by the Clippers. Griffin, with a score of 77, became the highest rating of the '09 rookie. James. Harden 76 points, Tyreck. Evans 71 points......

No way! Stephen, who was drafted by the Warriors with the 7th overall pick. Curry only scored 69 points, which was not even as good as the 18th pick in the first round. Lawson (73).

……

Going to the 2KGAME company to visit and sign is just a small vacation for the young Chinese to relax during the Knicks' preseason training camp.

Most of the team's training for nearly a month was conducted under the auspices of defensive coach Voi. Every Knicks player knows that improving the team's defense is a top priority if they want to make a difference this season.

Coach D'Antoni, who was busy and idle, quietly knocked on the door of the general manager's office on the second floor while the team was rehearsing the rotation after being broken by the opponent.

"Mike, do you think that guy's training is working?"

Chapman, who was standing in front of the glass window with his hands behind his back and watching the team's practice, did not look back to greet his old partner, but asked worriedly. Although the general manager of the Knicks, who was born as a scout, has a unique eye for people and selection, he is not good at technical and tactical aspects.

"Woning, Steve is a guy with a lot of ideas, and I think the defensive system he's built for the team is a perfect fit for my offensive playbook."

The mustache who came to Chapman's side by side and stood side by side in front of the window, although he was not good at tuning defense, was a professional after all. After so many days of observation, D'Antoni can't wait for the start of the new season.

After saying this, the Knicks coach frowned, as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Old man, how's Tyson's injury? When exactly will you be able to wear the Knicks jersey? ”

D'Antoni asked, looking at the big man sitting alone on the sidelines.

"Alas!"

A sigh from the general manager of the team made the mustache's heart tremble.

"I don't have any good news here, Tyson's old toe injury is no longer a big problem, the key is a muscle tear in his right shoulder, and no one can be sure of the exact date of recovery."

After hearing this, D'Antoni rubbed his somewhat sore forehead with his hand.

"But we can't expect Antonio to play the whole regular season, and no one knows when that guy is going to go down."

McDyce, a veteran center who has just turned 35, has maintained a good physical condition from recent training. But he should be the one with the most injuries in this team. Another white center, Aaron. Gray, although he has a good mid-range shot, has a somewhat soft style of play that is not favored by the coaching staff.

"Mike, we don't have to hide between us, just say it if we have something to say."

The mustache was a man who had nothing to do in the Three Treasures, and Chapman was very familiar with the old man's personality.

"Huh!"

The Knicks coach smiled a little awkwardly after being seen through by the other party.

"I think the central striker position needs to be strengthened. You know, Steve's defensive system for the team is built on having an inside iron gate. If Tyson and Antonio are unable to play due to injury, it will be difficult to guarantee our results this season. ”

D'Antoni's words were very direct and unreserved.

"Mike, tell me who you like."

For the burden thrown by the general manager of the team, the cunning mustache does not accept it at all.

"Hehe, I want Yao, Kevin. Garnett, Tim. Duncan, can you get it? ”

Chapman, who had been looking out the window, finally turned around. He walked over to his desk, habitually holding a pen and spinning it around his fingers.

D'Antoni saw that there was a play and hurriedly followed.

"Actually, I've been thinking about it for the past few days."

The general manager of the Knicks, who stopped what he was doing, looked obviously solemn.

"One plan is to find a way to get Tyson better as soon as possible." Chapman raised his hand to interrupt the interjection that the other party was about to prepare, and then continued: "I heard that there is a sports rehabilitation center in Chicago with a good reputation, and I think I can let Tyson try his luck there. Moreover, the little guy on the team has a lot of connections to this sports rehabilitation center. ”

The little guy is the name Chapman and D'Antoni privately call Sun Yi. It seems that after so many years of hard work by the Snyders, it is finally harvest season. Even the general manager of an NBA team knows about this newly emerging sports medical institution.

"Another scenario, based on Tyson's complete reimbursement this season. I have a candidate and would like to ask for your opinion. ”

"Who?"

When D'Antoni heard this, he was obviously a little impatient.

"Mark. Gasol, the big white man from the Grizzlies. ”

Chapman's answer came as a surprise to the Knicks coach. After thinking carefully for a while, the expression on his face changed from surprise to joy.

"Woning, you're a genius. This guy can be Tyson's best stand-in, it's just that what price do we have to pay to get him. ”

The mustache's approval did not make Chapman's face look pale, on the contrary, the general manager of the Knicks did not look good on his face at this time. If you want the Grizzlies to let go of this Spanish center, who averaged 11.9 points and 7.4 rebounds per game last season, the price will definitely be painful.

"Maybe Antonio, plus Wilson. Chandler or Al. One of Harrington's people, the other party is likely to be willing to open the door to this deal. ”

"What? No way! These two players are very important to me. ”

When D'Antoni heard this, he jumped up from his seat as if he had been stung by a scorpion.

"Relax, old man. Everything will have to wait for Tyson's injury and the final conclusion to be decided. ”
