      Re: Mike Wangs Blog!

      Another great blog I'm really liking the animations this year they look so smooth, and the size up mechanic looks great.

      Playing 1 on 1 on the perimeter whether you're on defense or offense should be pretty fun this year. I just hope that the post game got similar treatment though because if it did I know this game is going to get a lot of burn from me this year.

      1 on 1 is the name of the game in the NBA, so if Live nails it in both the post and perimeter I think we are going to have one hell of a game this year. This one area I think CH2K8 nailed so if Live can pull that off and couple that with improvements to the halfcourt and transition games I'm going to be in Bball heaven.

        Did anybody pay attention to D-Rose's shot? It looks alot better great this year compared to last year's.

          It's flawed in its basic design... in no way does sizing up longer give you a better chance to get to the basket in real life.

              Not going to defend it at this point. We've discussed size ups ad nauseum here. When the demo comes out, try it for yourself my man.

                Once again they are just showing us some parts of game play, so other parts have to be dumbed down. But I think you mean do something about it in this fashion... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z_F9Zzyi6U

                      Not really what I was expecting from the gameplay blog. We pretty much knew everything that was said in the blog. And I think where the guy is mentioning the "player forcefields" was when Tyrus caught the alley, Ray Ray bounced off of him when he attempted a block. The animations overall do look much improved though.
                      One more thing, when Rose made that jumpshot, the net barely moved, while when Tyrus tossed the ball in on the alley the net swished like a jumper would. Just seemed wierd.

                        do you know how to size up in real life or have you watched and1 ballers at work?

                        The more moves you start harassing the defense with the more they get jumpy and greater the chance of faking them out.


                        Your point is mute.

                            did you notice the ball hitting the rim then going into the net? Probably the reason for not having a "swish"

                            As for Ray vs. Thomas -- If you call that a "forcefield," sure -- we do have plenty of contact at the basket animations though.

                              TOTALLY false IRL good ballhandler always perform some moves to see how the defenders react before attacking him maybe not 8-10 but people like Drose wade and co perform 3 or 4 moves before attacking the hole becuz you won't know or see a opening if you don't analyze the defender's ability to follow you or not that's why 1 or 2 moves are not enough UNLESS of course you play against that guy everyday. Correct me if I'm wrong but nobody spend his time playing against the same guy in the nba
                              + performing more moves add to the stress of the defender, to create doubt in his mind, you need to show him your handle you need to create fake ways in his mind, you need him to think "is he going to the left? to the right? pull up? without 3 or 4 maybe more move you WON'T scare any good defender (I'm not talking about Triple threat but when you're dribbling of course) I'm really dissapoint rayap19

                                It also gives the defender a better chance to steal the ball. This was again a video showing the dribble moves... if it wasn't a demonstration video on low difficulty, the defender would've reacted in some way, probably poking at the ball... if Rose sat there playing with him, he'd probably get ripped like Rondo did in the other video.

                                I get what you're saying about "sizing up longer doesn't make it easier to get to the basket", but I think it's being misconstrued based on what I know about the system. Sizing up just lulls your defender (especially a human) and then you can explode out of the moves using the combination of LS and RS moves... I think that's what they mean by "makes it easier to get to the basket", not like it's actually "charging up" and magically making the following moves more effective.
