what? there's only 1 player in the nba who has a path to greatness?? come on 2K!!! that's weak...

I don't think that's what they're meaning to imply. It's just that LeBron is the cover player, so there's a LeBron-centric mode.

Like the Jordan stuff in 2k11.

Seems pretty cool. 2k implemented some good fiction there.

which is weak.. they should have an option to choose any player we want to take into greatness...

Varejao on the Celtics...

To do that, they'd have to write scenarios for everyone in the league. It's not simply Creating a Legend featuring LeBron, it's more like the storyline modes that appear in wrestling games. As I understand it, Creating a Legend is still in the game, so it's still possible to have a MyCAREER-type experience with a real NBA player.

How about just improve myplayer so teams play better basketball? Then the path to greatness is there for every myplayer career.
