So..after seeing the animation, you were like "Oh that looks cool! That's what momentum is all about! That animation actually happens in real life basketball!" rather than saying "Hm...that looks awkward. It looks like some transparent object bashes the player. That type of animation doesn't occur in real life. I gotta tell the developers about it and make it look more natural."?

@LD2K Did CAPs get worked on at all? They've always had a distinct look that made them look fake and looking at Ronnie's created player it doesn't look like it was touched on at all.

BTW, can you guys fix the jersey fit (among other graphical things) in updates this year? Because we didn't get any art updates last year.

Oh. Well, I hope you dropped the control or finger slipped then cuz...Rondo made Curry look like Mr. Bean playing basketball.

Do we really have to believe this? Why didn't you stand still?! Nothing would have happened, it's just a player showing off, dribble between his legs. Come on man.
