There’s something wholly cathartic about watching Team USA manhandle Justin Bieber’s avatar in NBA 2K13. When he exacts revenge at the end, well that was a little disappointing. But you know what? He totally travelled on that one-handed dunk. The crab dribble is still illegal, as far as we know. [The Basketball Jones]

The NBA season doesn’t actually begin for another month, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait to see what the newfangled Brooklyn Nets will look like.

The first official trailer for NBA 2K13 was just released. It features a Kevin Durant jump shot, Blake Griffin and Michael Jordan dunking, and Derrick Rose flipping in a layup… oh, and it also mentions that this game will be executive produced by Jay-Z.

The cover of NBA 2K13 will feature three of the game’s youngest, most exciting stars.

We’ve got Blake Griffin. We’ve got Inception references. We’ve got grapes. That can only mean one thing: the newest preview for NBA 2K13.
