Man, every time I play and start getting into it...a moment later I hear the clock ticking. It's really pissing me off! Gotta...play...the...full...game...now!

is it just me or are there too many missed layups?

You thought so? With me the heat are draining layup after layup and I'm hiting most as well if the paint ain't too crowded. Changing shots works great as well this year.

Drive properly in open lanes, use the correct hand to finish and you will get those quality layups easily

They actually look pretty life like, especially Bosh. He really looks that weird in real life, 2K did a good job with his face.

faces look detailed. i really dont like wade's face at all, hairline pushed back, looks like a baby. thumbs down. bosh's face looks on point, its just it always looks like the light is at the wrong angle, makes it look weird. faces look good overall imo

I felt like that too when I was reading some of the comments. I figured if some people were able to hold the Heat to zero I should be able to do it too. It isn't easy to do that if you're playing off ball defense though. 2K has said that user controlled defenders affect shot percentage more but I hope that doesn't mean that AI teammates don't affect shot percentage at all. D-Wade has been shooting the 3 as efficient as Ray Allen in the demo if I'm not actually guarding him.

Nah that's not the issue. The issue in the demo is that CPU defends the perimeter very badly either Mavs or Heat players. The stand too far away from the shooter and thus letting in easy threes. Can shoot the lights out from the 3pt line with either Dirk, Rudy, Caron or Kidd in the demo.
