    That's great. You'll be working on a game millions of people play everyday.

    Here are some suggestions.

    1. D-League in Association mode. You should have all the D-League teams and allow us to send down/call back players as GM. The amount of playing time will impact the player's development.

    2.D-League in MyPlayer. Same thing but as a player you can get sent down to the D-League especially in your rookie season to develop before getting called up. It fits with the storyline of you going undrafted more.

    3. Get rid of cheesey tactics in Park mode. Setting screens underneath the basket so you aren't boxed out, alley-oops are too effective, tone down contested threes especially the step back cheese. 7 ft SFs have got to go make the player height affect your attribute caps.

    I like how people are making suggestions as if he is in control of the game and can modify it any way he likes. Dude is probably a programmer. He probably has very little say if any about the actual game.

    With that said, congrats. SF is a cool city.

    Very cool. You did what I could not pull the trigger on years ago when I interviewed and offered positions with them twice when they were Visual Concepts. Do they still go by that or just 2K sports now? I, however, was trying to get my foot in the door as a tester since I had no coding experience outside of school.

    I wish you the best, and congrats for sure!

    I'm joining the production and game design team. Lots of talented veteran producers on the team that I'm excited to work with.

    Please work to get the My Player mode to allow slider adjusting. I don't ever, EVER want to take my created player online for any reason, so why is my single player experience tied in with Street Ball or whatever it's called? Your help here will be greatly appreciated.

    If you don't give Papanikalou at least a 95 overall, you have failed us all

    Hahaha! After I signed the letter, one of the producers asked me about the best Steve Francis Rockets team and TMac team. I was hoping to get a one-of-a-kind myTeam card or something. Maybe there's still time…
