I repeat the Heat and the Magic will have lots of dunks in real life this year.

The Orlando Magic is a 3-point shooting team first and foremost. They like to spread the floor, run high screen-and-roll with Howard which when he cuts to the rim one of the of perimeter defenders has to leave his man to help on Howard on the roll. Once that happens, it's bombs away because that help defender has to leave a shooter. The Magic led the league in 3s last season so all the dunks shouldn't be about the matchup.

The Heat will have its fair share of dunks this season (to say the least) but with all the shooters they have to spread the floor, it will also be bombs away when Wade and LeBron beat their man on the perimeter. Same scenario, help defender drops down, leaving a shooter wide open.

Lol so when the heat and magic play this year its just gna be fast paced, attack the rim basketball resulting in many dunks? Rarely in this video did the player look for jumpshots. It was all about exploiting bad defense. I watch a lot of basketball and I never saw an NBA game with this many highlight dunks IN THE FIRST QUARTER. The only way this would happen in real life is if the players completely forgot how to play defense on some plays.

If you look at the clippers vs hornets gameplay you see similar unrealistic things, such as blake griffin throwin down 2 alley oops with atleast one defender near him. But that's what happens when its human vs human. People like to play fast pace, and when defense is that bad its going to result in alot of dunks. This is how 2k10 was. It could be played realistically,but if you get two people playing each other it could be a dunkfest.

Dude, he didn't compare it to 2K. He just used the line from 2K. And based on the 4 videos we've seen, you can't dismiss his point!

lol I also think we get no love based on orlandos media market. We dont have the same market as la,bos,mia, or even ny. I have seen player say they would love to play for ny because if there tradition. WTH. This is not college where tradition matters. I want to win so im what to play with the team that has the best chance of wining. Orl does not really get those big name free agents. Vince carter came cause this is his home basically and so did t-mac. lewis came through a sign and trade and hedo was far better then anyone thought he would be

But looking at the video i really do think they have the new arena in. Look at the name on the court. They changed it to amway center. I dont know if it was changed to center irl but at least the changed it on the game to show that its a different arena. Maybe they did it because everything else as outside the courts are the same for every arena basically except for the lighting

I have to admit, the game looks a little better, but im still not excited. Dribbling looks good and responsive, but over done. Looks like an An1 game. Everybody is dunking on everybody. To much sliding. On a side note, i done know who's playing this game, but he must have a collection off controllers. Sounds like he's breaking the damn think. Take it EASY dude.

Since the game allows you to choose to attempt the dunk everytime, there really needs to be a proper penalty for it. Players may be capable of dunking in these situations all of the time but they choose to take a layup for a variety of reasons, chiefly the contact. The game doesn't have injuries so that's out, but there should be some rim checking and trips to the line instead.

And the more I watch Lebron and Wade and Carter handle the ball exactly the same, the uglier it is. Not to mention the stepbacks that looked so good in Live 10 are now just ugly.

The game doesn't have injuries?

And I agree, I want it to look and feel like I'm controlling a different player/team.
