Yeah I'm quite skeptical about the rebounding of those guys as well. What I do believe happens is some of it is based on hype...no offense to what he can do in that area of the game...but what we actually see. For example only, lets say I don't get to see the Pacers play often, and I might see them only when playing on National TV, that one player might go off or post some extraordinary stats and after that game I will base my opinion only on those few games because they are the only games I've witnessed that player. Thats what starts the hype and the casual gamers literally run with it. And yes I agree and believe that the devs know how to get it right at this point especially with all the tools provided and the fact that we are to come up with some amazing results within our limits alone! But yes, the mass...they get what they want. Lol.
Recently, I was watching a Miami vs Bulls game on TV...and I actually focused on all those mishaps you mentioned in the first paragraph. Guess what? Those mistakes were actually happening right out the gate lol.
Timeline of that game:
-Tip off landed out of bounds.
-Josh Richardson air balled a layup.
-Justin Holiday dropped a pass out of bounds thereafter.
-Dion Waiters loses the ball (dribbling) out of bounds
-Hassan Whiteside deflected a pass out of bounds.
At that point, the score was tied at 3-3 with 9:30 remaining in the first qtr!!! All those mishaps in under 3 minutes!
And yes there are teams who do have somewhat "perfect qtrs" of basketball and its perfectly possible. However, what we explained above is the kind of realism I want to see in this game from time to time. Not that perfect basketball every game I play. Agreed.
