And the real killer, be wide open, get green good release, 96% chance sign of going in and you miss, over and over and over on green good releases with 96% chance of going in. Not fun when you have to spam lay ups in order to score. No mid range game at all for the USER. 3pt shots ? Might as well forget that too. EA pretty much over corrected and went to the extremes. If this game had sliders, this wouldn't be a problem because EA tends to over correct in all their sports games. But since Live doesn't have sliders, we as consumers are stuck and are at the mercy of EA trying fix their game.

The best of the best miss wide open jumpers all the time.

Yes, but nowhere near this consistently.

The best players seem to play the worst as human-controlled since the last patch.

Klay Thpmpson shouldn't struggle to shoot the ball.

Exactly. All the Superstars of teams play like scrubs on User controlled teams and scrubs on CPU controlled teams play like Superstars.

I've seen Kobe go 2 for 30, Curry 6 for 28, Klay 3 for 12, Damian Lilliard 8 for 25, Harden 5 for 20, Durant 6 for 30, Westbrook 4 for 18, Rose 9 for 28, Chris Paul 2 for 15 all since the last patch.

I just played Clippers vs Hawks again, this time CPU vs CPU. Clippers won by 43 points. Every shot the Hawks took were bricks:

Korver was 4 for 13
Millsap was 9 for 24
Schroeder was 1 for 11

Hawks shot 33%. These are all regular mid range jumpers and post shots.

I'm uploading it to youtube as well. This is the game that I just finished, Wolves at Cavs (me). It was the NBA today type game, so I just played it. I shot 46%, they shot 49%. I shot quite a few mid range jumpers, and a very low % of my points were in the paint. Stats forthcoming.

that patch is fubar:

[The 24th Letter]

Thanks for sharing WTF, will check it out once it get's on YouTube. What was the difficulty? minutes?



Looks like you shot well, definitely going to peep your strategy on those mid range J's



As the shot chart shows the CPU is absolutely determined to spam inside after the latest update.....52 PIP and hit just 3 shots outside of paint, none in one half.....crazy

[WTF]

Yeah, Lavine, Wiggins Thad and Gieng were determined.

It was 8 min quarters on Superstar. I had a lot of contested jumpers too. I forgot to set the defense to protect the paint. After doing so, they had to resort a little more Balanced attack.

I shot 54% against the Lakers yesterday. Just wasn't streaming to show it.

Fernando confirmed that the gameplay team adjusted shooting. Why, I have no clue.

WTF,
I caught some of your stream. Saw you hit a 3 with a Kyrie on a semi-break but he was wide open.

I'm waiting to hear their reasons for tuning the shooting.
