Does anyone know the specifics on defensive controls? Is it the same as last year? LT + RT to shuffle, LT for that lockdown and LT + RS for shading?

Been trying to download for about an hour. My download stops at 1% every time with this message "Can't download nba 2k13 online demo". Tried other demo's as well. Same problem. My xbox gold account is active. Any thoughts?
Too much traffic?

Man i wish i could play, sounds amazing. Wanna try those new controls.

Is it just me or does Battier have major ups when going for a rebound?

Love the demo. Went about 12-3 playing online so far.

Though I am already getting used to controls, I am not sure about them in the long run. Broadcast cam does not help, but I know I have deal with that every year at demo time.

Didn't we lose a few moves with this new control scheme? For instance, I can't keep away the ball out of the triple threat. Also, did we lose the standirng dribble moves where you could cross back and forth between your legs or dribble from side to side with one hand?

He's definitely been leaping a little more than I'm used to seeing. He had a sky block for me on one occasion and even here, probably jumping a little higher than we're accustomed. Nice fast break bounce pass though:

I know 2K tries to keep their demos as small as possible (though almost 1 GB isn't what I call small) but I wish that they had added a practice mode of some sort to try out the new control scheme.

still don't like that sorta automatic defense thing where it points you to who you have to guard and sorta controls you there.. wanna be able to pick people up full court avery bradley style

Yeah, I can't play online at all. Maybe it's just poor matchmaking, but there's literally a 1 second input delay that makes it borderline unplayable.

Tried 3 games so far and it's 0/3 on a good connection.
