Only difference should be speed and cosmetics, or something of that effect Not letting us change our defensive assignments in ProAM (I think? I guess I haven't tested it out in '20) Also, seconding whoever mentioned that we need to watch the end of each half. Whoever made that decision can screw off, thanks for wasting my time Keeping the Neighborhood in general

THIIIIS X 1000. Such a simple concept but has somehow never been brought up. I can't stand having to dribble up court with a SG or SF because my point guard assumes I got it. No thank you Mo Harkless. Dame, come get the ball.

Also how you literally have to inbound a center or PF because anyone else is simply incapable of doing it for some reason? They'll take the 4 seconds to switch positions and hand the ball to each other instead of getting the ball in and passing it back.

When searching for rosters, draft classes, or player DNA (as well as naming them) you have to enter a minimum of four characters. It was three last year, why change it to four? This accomplishes nothing but inconvenience.

For example last year when looking through custom rosters, I could simply search '199' and I would basically get results from 1990-1999. Can't do that any more, gotta search for years one by one. I am so annoyed with this.

I'm not saying it's not an improvement. It should of been a option. And then explained.

That's why I don't do it. I need atleast 3 pauses if the opponent is ELITE level since stuff like STAY ATTACHED isn't on the timeout menu. Pick/Pop can beat you on a last possession but you dont want to have your center following Brook Lopez or Marc Gasol out to the 3pt line unless he HAS to.

we got 3 minutes--ain't nobody got time to be setting up favorite plays.

Really? How did someone consciously program this change and not think of that effect? We all know how copy and pasted these games are so how in the heck was that not just kept the same.

When you do an expansion team and start during the season, you can’t realign the divisions. The CPU put my two expansion teams in the same conference.....

Saving it would definitely be nice. I'm just saying that this glitch makes me glad I take the time to do it before games.

It costs me under a minute to set favorite plays and change communication to defense only. I have the other two minutes for adjustments as I need them throughout the game.
