also it doesnt include bench players and so on..

But in terms of gameplay, controls, and likeness to the real deal, it blows away every other NBA game released, so that's hype enough, not sure wth you're expecting from an NBA game

Thanks bigluca, I guess my problem was feeling I really couldnt do anything in the game beside move my player with the left stick, basic pass, and basic shoot. Granted I have not played a basketball game since 2k8 which is probably part of the problem of not knowing how to do spins, lead passes etc. My main concern was with people saying how they cant stop playing the demo and I'm done with the demo after 4 games.

Oh
i would look up 2k's video tutorial on how to dribble. It's been complicated since last year, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, no more unrealistic spins and what not. But for the casual player, i guess 2k10 would be perfect, 2k11 is just taking it a a giant step further

The option to control one player for an entire game. It was in last year, so I'm sure it's there again, but I ask every year, just in case.

Thanks for the fast response.

As for the rebounding - there clearly isn't any boxing out except during free throws. Can you confirm it - I've seen a lot of gameplay vids and it really seems to be true.
