I played with the Cavs against the Wizards last night. The game was close the first half, but I ended up winning by 10 or 11 points (All-Star default). I didn't write down any stats, but FG% was abnormally high (I looked at one point in the first half and both of us were 80% or above). Points in the paint still amounted to over 3/4 of their points with their no-name big men putting moves on Ben Wallace and dunking on him. It was a fun game and I'm going to keep play around with it more and see if I can do anything with my in-game defense to get the CPU's offense to adjust but I'm still seeing some original problems.

I do like the new post-up stuff, though. Not every Center and PF is automatic anymore; however, I feel like I can't take advantage of mis-matches down low because backing down on a defender seems to be weakened a bit.

Online I played an exhibition game and watched with Ben Gordon hit hit 8-12 3's on Superstar against a 6'5 Brandon Roy.

I am officially retiring from Superstar. I'm in a league that's on the Hall of Fame level 10 minute quarters. I thought I was playing in the NBA. . I loved it. . I'm surprised so many of you play on the lower levels and then wonder why your shooting 80%. We played down to the wire with both teams shooting less than 50%. That's basketball. If I constantly saw 60% shooting pct I wouldn't play the game. No team shoots at that pct.

The whole"Waiting for player" crap also still happens

how about trying to create a match and even joining the lobby so you can invite friends? i tried last night numerous times and it's a complete mess. i kept getting the couldn't join lobby message and after awhile, the game just freezes. this happened to my 4 friends as well when we all tried. this game is the biggest joke. i like the offline changes but seriously, is this even real at this point?? i don't want to hear anything about, "give them a chance" because the games been out for awhile now. it's not like we're all playing on 56k modems either...

For offline users, WHO DON'T USE SLIDERS OR ROSTER EDITS, the patch has made the game worse than ever.

-Alley oops
-Everyone can score at will
-I can swipe for steals and watch my hand go thru the guys face, hand and thru the ball.
-I can play D, lock on to a defender, swipe air and get called for a foul
-Point blank shots are missed too often
-CPU can back everyone down

Pro with adjusted shooting sliders won't produce high % games.
