We will use two buttons to do manual substitutions on the fly:
(A) Right analog stick
(B) R1 (or L1)

Press down on the D-pad brings up the 1st substitution screen (current lineup on the floor). The player to be substituted out will have his name up top on the 2nd substitution screen (available bench warmers or substitutes).

GOAL: First substitution picture below. We will substitute Curry. Push up on the right analog stick will select Curry to be substituted out ("UP" corresponds to Curry; if wanting to sub out Klay Thompson, push "DOWN" on the right analog stick; if wanting to sub out H.Barnes, push "LEFT" on the right analog stick; if wanting to sub D.Green, push "RIGHT" on the right analog stick; "CLICKING" the right analog stick (R3) will select Andrew Bogut to be substituted out).

This will automatically bring up a 2nd screen showing most of the available players you can replace Curry with. Press R1 or L1 to show the rest of the bench players you can replace Curry with. There is a maximum of two pages worth of available substitutes.

NOTE: Unfortunately, nothing will highlight. Curry's name will not change color. The only way to tell who is getting subbed out will be seeing the player's name positioned at the top in the 2nd screen ("Toggle Page" substitution screen)


Court
(Players on the floor/court) vs. Toggle Page (available substitutes/bench warmers)

At the bottom of the substitution screen are the words "Court" and "Toggle Screen":
(A) "Court" is an indication that the existing substitution screen represents all 5 players currently on the basketball court.
(B) "Toggle Page" is an indication that the existing substitution screen represents the player that you would like to sub out and bench warmers that you would like to sub into the game. Hit R1 or L1 to bring up other available substitutes/bench warmers.

You can in the the pregame load screen.

Just cycle through the premade lineups and put the players you want in them. I do it every game. We've had that option for a while now.

One thing I don't understand though, is why we can't cycle through lineup types if we pause the game and go into the substitution screen from there. Would like to be able to edit pre-made lineups during the game too.

They certainly over thought this. It works once you get used to it, but it's hardly an improvement.

Re: In game substitution issue

They should just use the face buttons, sometimes the stick doesn't register and it eats up all my shot clock just trying to sub a guy.
