I don't think he's saying its hard to learn I believe he's trying to put emphasis on the true basketball aspects of the game. The problem I see with this, while playing the demo which could be the reason, is that there is no player movement whatsoever unless you call one of those quick plays that don't do much. How can you enjoy what is a decently presented basketball sim if your players don't do the basic fundamental things and MOVE on offense? Again this is me just playing the demo but from what I've seen its in the full version as well.
