[Yeah...THAT Guy]

This year's demo is definitely an improvement over last year, and like I mentioned earlier, 2K should take a look at how this game does the shooting where the LS affects the shot.

However, the more I play the demo, the more I'm starting to dislike it. It still has issues with rebounding and defense that are much better in 2k, and even though the AI is certainly more agressive in Live than in 2k, it's still easy to tell when they're going to shoot and when they're going to pass and stuff, just like in 2k. Overall, it's a nice effort and EA is going in the right direction, but 2k is still much more polished for me.
