It does not matter what happens in real life, in this case. It is either the cpu is cheating or just a code in the game were you cant sucessfuly perform certain defensive moves if timed perfectly. if it is a human vs human and the heat user isnt good, to a degree lebron will still be unstoppable. hope thats not the case.

I understand what you mean. Ive had perfect timing on defence and still failed at stopping the likes of lebron and wade, or even bosh from midrange. I'm not referencing the fact that it happens in real life, I'm really saying that even in the game these guys are representations of the players they actually are and so are the defenders you are using. There are no standout defenders on the Mavs though I do think good team defence is rewarded in the game. Things could definitely be tighter, and I hope they are in retail.
