I'd be interested in hearing people's thoughts on how this patch plays. I have off Thursday-Sunday and this patch might be the one to get me to try the demo to see if it is worth purchasing in my opinion.

I tried the demo with patch 1.2... I found it fun. I don't know too much about stats, but they seemed about right with the NBA. One thing I noticed was that 2nd rounders played no part in trades. You could add as many as you want, and it didn't affect the trade...
