The point of this is to make it as easy as possible to get these updates into the game; pictures help provide that immensely. Try to stay as specific as possible. This isn't a wishlist thread, but more a correction thread.

Presentation
- No more generated players in starting lineups as your about to go to tip off (unless they don't have pictures) - Ref.1, Ref.2

In Game Crowd Reactions
- Maybe even if a returning player from injury, star player or a player with a storied career gets traded in association mode or my player they get a large standing ovation when they enter the game, like in Rudy Gay's first game. He actually had multiple standing ovations. Amare had a standing ovation also, and D Rose will have the whole world give a standing ovation.
- You know when you make a flashy pass or break someones ankles, the commentators have no idea what is happening, and the crowd is just reacting as if it was a regular pass. We need CROWD REACTION to be focal point in authenticity. Also if a player air balls that crowd will make some noise.
- Basic 2 handed dunks shouldn't be getting a reaction like they just completed an in-game thru the legs dunk.
