Anyone notice that games are more challenging during Dynasty mode? Anyhow, one difference I can report this year is that the cpu does not bite on any variety of pump fakes thrown that direction on Superstar level default sliders. I commenced my Dynasty yesterday and 3 games in I have not been able to make the cpu fall for any pump fakes. The games have been very challenging (lost 1, won others by small margins after various defensive adjustments) and the AI has been eye opening. I certainly appreciate the challenge considering the lack of cpu competition last year.

So, to my point. I played a few Tip Off games today and the pump fakes were more effective again and my shots were falling with regularity. This confirms to me that there may be repeatable or verifiable distinction between both games modes and not just anecdotal observation. Again, don't get me wrong because my Dynasty mode is alot more unpredictable because of this increased challeng which is a good thing. Just wondering if others have made the same or similar observations ( i could always be wrong )and if any of the Game changers can shed some light on what I have described.

Some other observations I have made. The cpu on Superstar now plays much better defense and protects the basket much more effectively when down at the 2 min mark and full court press has been initiated (much better than 1 week ago). This was wonderful to witness! I also continue to see refinement of the game daily as it pertains to animations and player tendencies. Fantastic progress!
