Did they update on ball defense?

I know there wasn't a patch yet, but they did say they can adjust things without patches now. All of a sudden as of yesterday the blow by animation is being triggered when a big man or slower defender is on a speedy guard. I know for a fact it was in there out the box.

Finally able to exploit mismatches.

Not saying you are wrong but maybe, just maybe, you are grasping the new controls better?

It's just your "inner patch" - getting used to the controls

Online or offline? It's not impossible that something in the gameplay could have been changed for online play on the server side (unlikely, but not impossible). Offline though, no...if that's what you're seeing it's probably just placebo.

BTW, the things they were talking about being able to adjust without a patch dealt with the ACE system and adding new plays to the game, mostly.

Haha, definitely possible!

I did notice several possessions in a game last night where I seemed to move around with more ease. Probably in my head, or as 24th pointed out - practice has a positive effect.
