Have you ever heard of the "Rule of 21"? If you want to change a habit, you have to try the new way 21 times before it starts to feel natural. If you keep losing your keys, try to put them in the same place by the door every night for 3 weeks and then it'll start to feel natural.

I can see this being the same way with the controls. Play 20-30 full games (a couple of nights) and I bet the controls will start to feel natural.

About damn time!

I had it with Westbrook and Durant as well, seems like they had a new animation for it too.

I like the demo but I do find the controls a bit sluggish. When pressing Y to block it doesn't respond too fast so it's hard to time the block.

Players seem to jump a bit too high on rebounds too.

Does anyone else feel this way?

Anyone else doing lots of fake passes? Seems like you really have to hold "x"

do yourselves a favor and just use square to operate all shooting, the stick gets confusing.

Stick is easy hold LT double tap RS in any direction you go that way for a shot not complicated, you can even do it out of a triple threat, its real nice lol

Stick still feels far better for me, though I'll be switching to the alternate controls in the retail so the trigger activates the dribble stick instead of the shot stick.

That's a more natural set up for me.
