As far EA giving us "nothing" is concerned...yes, it's disappointing that a mistake has been made but I do believe they sent us the media in the first place. It's not as though we were the only site to suffer that misfortunate with the video mixup. This is what I've alluded to before, people complain about EA not doing anything for us and when they do, it's thrown back in their face And then they're accused of not showing us any respect. A mistake was made, it's unfortunate. Let's move on.
As far as the screenshots are concerned, I'm yet to receive any further word on them. As far as I'm aware, they are from NBA Live 07. Perhaps their presence on the official NBA Live 06 site disproves that and there's been a further mixup or maybe they're there because the official NBA Live 07 section hasn't been launched yet. If I receive another retraction, I'll be sure to post it.
EDIT: For what it's worth, here's a comparison of a screenshot taken of the default rosters from NBA Live 06 with no face patches or any other art updates applied:
And here's one of the screens posted the other day:
If the screens we were sent are indeed from NBA Live 06, it would seem Dirk's face has been patched from the default as his hairstyle in the new screens is noticeably longer and closer to his current style than the short crop he sports in EA's default face in NBA Live 06. It seems unlikely that they would do that.
