    all i can say is playing 5v5 with everyone having a decent understanding of basketball and how to play live - its a beautiful thing. and very fun

    24, you know i have no prob killing that damn horse LMAO, there should be a penatly for holding the ball - it was there on 16 (at least in rising star). also there should be an idle timer🐎⚰

    I had a game where NOBODY passed me the ball and I was sitting at the wing wide the hell open because everybody was bunched up inside the paint trying to be Jordan smh

        Is there a controller setting to turn off the automatic shot block attempts and rebounding in Live Run?

          Is live run choppy for anyone else ??

          It's just not smooth.

          Pro Am is much much smoother.

          I did a little head to head comparison last night.

This needs to be flipped around.


            I second this. I thought this was just a problem in the demo, but I didn't realize it was an issue in 16 as well. Hopefully it's fixed this year.

              thats the thing that kills me! even more than the ball hogs. on offense everyone crowds the ball handler, clogging up the paint ( bothered me on 2k too!). everybody sets screens at the top of the arc - spread out, space the floor - DAMN 😂. on defense randoms just chase the ball, the hell with their defensive assignment.

              i just laugh, cause it was me that brought my *** in this lobby to play will their trashcan selves 😂

                [emoji23] my niece even asked if I was watching World War Z. Everybody goes where the ball [emoji459] is. No set plays. [emoji23]

                But actual player behavior aside, I like this game.

                  Thought my controller has issues. I intentionally left my plate right in front of the off ball offense but my player moves by itself. Was guarding one player in the post with L2 and my player run (by itself) to an oncoming ball handler.

                    Nah, it's continuing on my brand new Pro controller...I've gotten whole defensive sequences and blocks without pressing anything, haha

                        Was playing some of the co op challenges today. I was amazed at the amount of players passing and playing smart in the showdown challenge. Maybe its because the rewards in one of the challenges were all jordan brand related. So players are sacrificing more to ensure a win to unlock the jordan brand rewards.

                        When playing in the co op mode with the baseline high camera, i wish the camera could look like when a player is about to inbound the ball after a made basket. It has a nice overhead view of the court before the ball is in bounded but then lowers and zooms in when the ball is in play.

                          it seems to be auto assistance like the rebounding mechanic. i guess its meant to help players but we dont need our hands held.

                            Auto passes to the guy closest to the hoop, great for those quick cuts with a player under the basket.

                              I'm sold on the demo. Was wondering if anyone has a glimpse of the franchise mode?

                                Hopefully theres an option to turn it off in retail.
