Durant and Westbrook dominated the ball, and Kendrick Perkins took 0 shots. I like that. * The commentary is top notch, but that just could be because I wanna hear something different. * I like the smoothness and feel of the players. No noticeable sliding and you can really feel the weight and momentum at times. Cons: * Contact in the paint isn't as frequent as it needs to be. * 3 pointers go in at an alarming rate for both the user and cpu. * Not enough fouls called * Not enough contact in the paint, which in turn causes not enough fouls to be called. * On offense, players don't move around enough, it feels like I had to play hero ball every possession. If EA could clean up some of the flaws I have listed, I would purchase this game and I know I would have fun with it. Let me ask you guys with the full retail game a few questions. Are the 3 point shooting % sky high? Is there more contact and more fouls? Also, is there a way to set up auto plays to get some movement out of my teammates? If the answer to these questions are yes, I can see myself picking up this game today.

You can turn on auto-motion to get players moving on offense, but if you want to run a set play, you have to call it yourself. Three pointers do still seem a little high, but I imagine they'll tone it down soon with a tuning update.
