Why doesn't EA just build off NBA LIVE 10? THEY CAN'T.

As like most of you who have been following this LIVE/ELITE debacle for almost 3 years I ask myself, why didn't EA just return to the solid core they had from LIVE 10.
I've never heard an answer that made any sense. I just assumed it was due to the arrogance of the label in their insistence to redefine what simulation basketball was. This evening that view was altered when I watched a video made by YouTube video commentator and NBA 2k Team UP member, Shakedown 2012. Accompanying him in the commentary was Prime76, another YouTube commentator who focuses on NBA Live titles (his favorite being LIVE 10). The video below is part 2 of a dual commentary they did concerning the direction of NBA LIVE.

MY OPINION, this video is unfiltered truth.

THEY CAN'T IMPLEMENT MIKE WANGS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, TALENT, TECHNOLOGY SINCE HE'S NO LONGER EMPLOYED BY EA.

I like how Prime CLEARLY differentiates between an EA fan and an EA fan with commonsense.

To be honest, I would buy Live if it has 2010 gameplay and 2012 rosters and game modes like myplayer and a deep Dynasty mode.

If they build off 2010 its not too much. EA is good at polishing game modes and I think if they did 2011 like 2010 + game modes and gameplay tweaks, it would succeed.

Would you still buy it if the right stick dribbling mechanics weren't available?

Live 2010 has it so I guess no?

There goes that double standard again. No offense.
