Well, due to the game not selling well. They scrapped it and the Developer MIke Wang said i am not with this and called 2K and said, can i get my old job back, these dudes are ****ing up. Well, 2K said sure because they liked the dude.
So EA basically said. Since we cant take 2K's basketball fans, we will try to go in a new direction (hired the main boss of the NHL series) and said we can just tap into our Fifa and NHL fans and make the game more casual. Well, the game was really bad and not even ready for that. So the Suits said we have to pull this game, it will get terribly killed by the reviewers and fans. So they delayed it.
