I can't see it being an issue. Meaning, if TNT wouldn't do the deal with Doris in the game, I can't imagine 2K not just removing her from the game.

Possibly. Alternatively, perhaps they don't feel that authentic branding is worth throwing out all her audio, and getting rid of someone they enjoy working with. However, I'm guessing ESPN wouldn't be all that happy with one of their key on-air presenters being billed as working for TNT, so it probably would present some issues. If it came down to it though and they really wanted the TNT presentation, then yeah, they'd no doubt replace her with a TNT presenter.

Not sure if it's Burke preventing them from using the TNT license, or if 2K feels ita not worth the price tag just for the name when they've got all of their commentators already

Clark Kellogg doesn't exactly work for TNT and I forget where Greg Anthony works now

Anthony's working for CBS Sports these days, as does Clark Kellogg.

And given they have Doris as one of the "dynamic" commentators, I don't think they're going to get rid of her anytime soon.

As far as presentation personnel goes, I think they should focus on getting Chuck on board, both as cast along Ernie, Shaq and Kenny and as a historic player. Last thing I remember about him is that he might've wanted to have something like Jordan challenges were in 2K11?

Chuck's supposedly not that interested in video games, which is why he's usually a holdout. If giving him the Jordan Challenge treatment is what it takes, I think it'd be worth doing, one of these years.
