Oh, I honestly hadn't realized it was supposed to be them jury-rigging a fix for something the patch did (I had taken a break around the time the patch, and thus, the -8 rosters hit, so not sure what all went down)? I just hadn't noticed the -8 really affecting shooting numbers as drastically as I thought it would have, was my point.
Though I have definitely noticed players doing the 'you can't shoot' thing and giving you space (and cursing when my own guys did it), I suspected that was the cause but really hadn't confirmed it. Maybe I'll try a new roster or something after all. Although I remember the HypeDC (or whatever it was called) having crazy ratings and killing everyone's overall, a lot of people seem to love it so... maybe I'll give it a shot.
And 30-Team control sounds like at least some sort of solution for sure, might contemplate that as well.
Edit: And, I wholly agree with the online community sentiments. I didn't mind Team-Up mode (when it was actual NBA teams, and it was the 3% of the time you got people who didn't quit if they didn't get a star... so...), but beyond that offline is the reason I buy this game.
