That's not a good sign. I can understanding toning it down but to completely get rid of it is another thing. Shaq should be able to backdown 95% of the players in the league.

from one end of the spectrum to the other when it comes to backing down defenders. The 2K camera seems to work better, though it still lags slightly from the initial transition.

Shaq couldn't back down a tired Stackhouse - went from one extreme to the other.

So can I confirm with you guys that during gameplay in offline mode that:

1) There's no backdoor passes the CPU does which lead to a high number of PIP (points in the paint)?

2) There is an increase of mid-range Js attempted by the CPU?

I still see some back door cuts, but not as much as before. I am also using nogster's rosters with my custom sliders so i was already having realistic pitp. I like the improvements, but it is certainly disappointing that the low post issues have gone to the other extreme (now being impossible to back someone down)
