yes, this is my main problem with the game...

that and the unstoppable turn around post shots...there have been many times where i have contested Garnett's turn around shot and my forearm literally goes through the ball and he still swishes it...i was hoping this year we would see an end to these cheesy ball clipping issues...in that situation, it should be a block...what's the point of contesting his shot if he can just shoot the ball right through your arm and swish it? it doesn't reward you for playing good defense....and even if he did manage to make the ball go through my arm, the shot still should miss on the basis that i was heavily contesting him with my arm all up in his space...if they're going to allow the ball to go through my arm, at least give me a brick off the rim for my good defense.

I myself think the demo was great but I am disappointed that you could only choose LA this year. I'm a Lakers fan though so it doesn't bother me as much. I was just hoping to be able to play against a friend on the demo. Also, the stripping of the audio sometimes makes the demo boring for me.

In past games that can be fixed to your liking by tweaking the help defense slider. Everyone wants better help defense but with that comes more opportunities for the offense.

I'm hoping this is just due to the gamestyle.

In every previous 2k game, there was no release point on these shots; it was rating based. I believe there is supposed to be one this year, although I am not seeing it.

I hope its gamestyle as well....even though I havent really experienced what what your talking about Blues. If anything, I feel I get too many blocks in the post sometimes.....post moves just dont get blocked that often...the majority of the time you just want to get a good contest...

I would think since you don't have online, yet you have a demo only downloadable thru online, that when you goto run the demo, it wants to go online to verify something.

I could be wrong.
