LeBron doesn't have time to choke in this demo.

I don't know, I guess "floaty" would be a good term. You'd only want to move a player a few steps, and would end up 15 feet from where you wanted. This time, it felt alot tighter. I think I might have run into a tiny glitch though, Miami was called for a defensive 3 seconds, Dirk goes to the line, and then it's like he froze. The game was still running, but nothing would happen when I pulled the stick to shoot the FT.

Many people on here seemed to have run into that defensive 3 sec glitch. Luckily it hasn't happened to me yet.

It's not choking if we're consistently awful.

The devs weren't lying when they said shot blockers would track the ball in 2K12. I blocked LeBron using Dirk twice now, and on both occasions Dirk tracked the ball before swatting it.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Has anyone successfully triggered a spin jumper? I can't for the life of me get it to work on this camera angle unless they changed the way you do it.

Edit: And for the record, still think the help defense is god awful in this demo. I have to pretty much control Kidd the entire game or he'll just completely abandon Mario Chalmers on every play. Same thing is happening with whoever is matched up on Chris Bosh.

Edit x2: Just got a spin jumper to work with Dirk. I guess you have to push the stick in the opposite direction and then do a circle?

Yeah that happened to me too.
