One word = horrible. nothing new except assistant coaches which "develop" your player. even last year was better where you could accumulate points and then use those to develop players. i guess they were looking for a madden like progression.

some of the other garbage.

no player stats (i.e PPG in 2003)

Looking at a player's info seems like you are on a system from 1995. compared to MVP and Madden NBA live is embarassing.

No trading during the offseason. You can trade AFTER everything is over. What moron decided this? I just think they were too lazy to implement new code. I could wait until the fist day of the season anyway to trade. what benefit do i get to trade now.

cpu teams can resign their free agents during the free agent signing and go over the cap. if you released a player and try to resign him during free agent period you cannot.

the trading system is a joke. first you need a calculator. then you have no idea about interest. they do give a bar but it is useless. and forget about trading for a draft pick.

this is not franchise but still irratating. no box scores during the playoffs?

a couple of good things.

team history and gm history.

compared to other EA titles Live is by far the worst franchise.
