    This may have been asked already, but were blocks toned down when you're shooting jumpers? For example, if I was T-Mac going up for a mid-range J, it didn't matter if Bruce Bowen or Mike Wilks were guarding him, each player would routinely reject me....20 feet from the basket. I guess what I am asking is (and this may relate to the improved spacing), how is the separation in this game between scrubs and star players and can they get their shots off easier? Thanks!
    The few games that I played most of the blocks came on the inside. I was playing with Minn against Houston. I took most of my midrange shots with Sprewell and Wally and i dont think they were blocked by Houstons wing guys at all.
    Like you said the improved spacing helps get open looks if you are patient and pass the ball around.

      on rebounds did your pg come back for the ball? I Know after a basket they'll be there, but last year, if i grabbed a rebound with lets say yao or shaq, payton or francis would be streaking down the court, either forcing me to throw a long pass or bringthe balll up myself, not very realistic.

          Everyone, please remember that we played a very early version of the game. It was feature-complete, but there was still much work left to do by the developers' admission.

          The game still had bugs (as is perfectly normal at this stage) and oddities that the devs were trying to root out.
          Essentially, we can only offer you a general overview of the game, as the build we played was far too early in production to state with any credibility whether any "bugs" or the like from last year's title have truly been changed.

              Yes. When I played, the PG was always closest to the player with the ball, looking to receive it and take it up the court.

                  I have a very simple question...in your guys' dynasties, did the new rookies have realistic unifrom numbers? I remember playing Live for the PC and some of the new guys wore like 78 or stuff like that. Will they be given "realistic" numbers or can you assign new jersey numbers? Thanks, you guys are doing a great job.

                      We only played it on Xbox, but unfortunately, I didn't get enough time with the Dynasty mode to get through a complete season - so I didn't see how the rookies were handled. Sorry.

                          So is the slowdown problem fixed?

                          Also how about where you go up for a dunk and the CPU hacks you with no foul?
