This is what I was talking about. Before the patch, you could contest a shot and have the ball morph through your hand for a swish. I can stomach the morph if the shot contest counts.

Here is a great example. Man, this vids are HILARIOUS. FYI, this dude made a later vid where he gave 2k9 some cred.




Here is another...I'm in TEARS here. I love these guys, man.



I love the game, but I totally FEEL you. Collision and ball detection are so important for defense, it can really hurt when the CPU morphs its way to a point, because it neutralizes your positioning. I could be wrong, but I think morphs are triggered by the timing of a button press, vs. the CPU action. With a bigger window for the timing of defense, hopefully these morphs will be triggered at a much lower rate.

I'm VERY happy to see this patch coming, don't get me wrong, but I feel kinda bad for people like Tomba who have been working like crazy with sliders and player edits trying to get the game to play better. Guess they will have to pretty much start over, huh?

I can name a bunch of people that would disagree.

LOL so much for that patch (that probably wasnt going to come out) huh?

The main difference between EA basketball game and 2K basketball game is that EA is more focused on team play and 2K is more focused on the individual (ex. much more effort put into signature styles and what not) I like them both, however.

Ha Ha Ha, man Born I got a total of about 30 seconds worth of USEFUL information out of those videos (not a shot against you but him). That has to be the most nonsensical rambling, repetitive statements and non-cohesive thought patterns since Mos Def in 16 Blocks....

I agree with dude's overall statement, but geez, the same point could have been made in about 25 seconds....
