Saw a few other cool things...
I was playing good D on the C's and the shot clock was winding down and Rondo took a 22 footer way off balance and it was an airball, dunno if I've ever seen that in a 2K game before.
Also, anyone who's using the C's, as soon as you're D make sure you adjust Rondo's defensive pressure on Fisher. LOL, he's hit about 20 three's so far on me.
One thing that is becoming a concern to me is the lack of responsiveness of the shotstick in a catch-n-shoot situation. It's awesome to see Ray Ray come off all these screens but so far I can't get him to catch and shoot all in one smooth motion. He always has to set himself and by then Kobe has recovered. Sometimes I have to use the shot stick twice, it's as if Ray is stuck in an animation during my first attempt at shooting. It's as if he has to go from "running off a screen animation" to "neutral" to "shooting" after I press the shot stick. Not good.
Also, the isomotion is a little worisome. Basically, hold down turbo and wiggle the stick and you'll get by someone. It's not as precise as in the past, IMO, but then again I'm sure I'm not using it correctly. Hopefully I'll figure it out or cheesers will have a field day with this.

If you don't watch out, Eddie House will come onto the court and just start gunning. Damn! He just lit me up for back to back triples. I got 'em back though with Kobe in the post on a mismatch. 
They absolutely nailed Kobe in this game. Some of the mid-air adjustments he made in my last game were beautiful.

Hmm, this is now turning into a pet peeve. I hold aggressive to try and do Isos and I'm starting to just get sucked into some charging animation.
The more I play this demo, the more I love the game but the more terrible I feel at it. And I was pretty good at NBA 2K6 through 2K8.
Does no one else feel like this almost an entirely different game? Man this is frustrating. I guess not entirely different, but I'm really struggling with finding open shots and getting layups. I haven't shot a single layup yet actually, all mid-range, threes or random dump offs to the paint. And I keep repeating it but I'm absolutely useless with Iso and mid-air adjustments.

The gameplay is good, the game looks like isht.
Live just feels better, overall to me, and I'm having a hard time admitting it...

Anyone notice the new LOCKDOWN? How you can get far/mid/close using the R stick? Plus you can use the lockdown stick to play to the left or right. Nice
HAHAHAHA
So for some reason while the Lakers are working the ball around Pau gets the ball just outside the 3 point line out on the wing, and for some reason decides to take the shot. Well as Garnett for some reason I decided to bite on what I thought was a fake (maybe he just slapped it out of Gasol's hand?) and swatted it into the stands. Then the camera just stayed fixed on Pau and KG and KG was jsut glaring right into Pau's eyes until Pau walked away. It was AWESOME.
