The things that 2K evidently does not care about are:

* how important the crowd (appearances, animations, noise) are to the environment of the game
* how important it is for the AI to attempt to run plays instead of doing the same things over and over
* how important it is for your own AI teammates to set picks for you

Those things are still not in the game (early build or not), and I won't be buying this game until I've seen enough legitimately positive reviews beyond "OMG!".
No plays are being run in the demo on AI or your team. I disagree with it, but 2k wants to keep all their plays secretive. It's the nature of the demo. Same with setting picks. Basically, this demo is a chance for you to get the controls down, in the post and dribble, get used to the gameplay and player movements, and get a feel for some of the signature shots and new innovative shots.....It's just the nature of the demo.

2K = HYPE MACHINE
