    NO offensive plays!, NO real classic teams! Disappointing


    what's up with the playbooks, i can only find four offensive plays, post-up,iso,3-point, and pick & roll. I looked through the manual, and it says four plays also, why only four plays total whenn they had a whole book last year.
    those of you hoping for real classic teams will be disappointed. there are a few all time teams (all lakers, all celtics, all sixers, all sonics) but no '96 bulls etc. The game shows you unlockables under franchise mode->extras. There may be hidden classic teams but i didn't see them

    You're saying the game doesn't have authentic plays? I thought the ESPN NBA Basketball interview said that they did have that.

          like i said perhaps i'm looking in the wrong place, but i looked in the calling plys section of the manual, i looked and there were only four plays, i looked for each team and there were only four plays, all you could change was which button to map those four plays to. On defens there were the same number of sets. About four zones different man-to-man full court, etc. but on offense only four plays. I hope i'm wrong.

                Do they have zone defenses? Live has a ton of different options that I am loving using, and I'm hoping ESPN has the same.

                      they don't have as many zones as live, just the same as last year, 3-2, 2-3, 1-3-1.

                      Also, i switched to auto play calling with message in game, and it will call plays like post-up 32 and pick and roll 9, but i don't know what those plays are. Maybe in the in-game manual there's information. Still, there's only the ability to call the same four plays manually.
