What a cluster**** of a game last night Fifty, now i have played against the best players in the leagues, and they all have the same trait in common. I'm glad this is kinda a throw away league because it was killing me!! I suppose there is no way around the shit that happens, centers and power forwards are used to steal passes to prevent fast breaks and offensive manual rebound in full effect. Of course you will argue " you had more off rebounds " Yeah due to my players skill and me putting the team to crash the boards that's the reason, and most of them was them grabbing the rebound, not shooting and switching over and tipping the shit in all the time. I digress, once i called him out the game was better and i lost on a shady jumper by normal joe johnson with hands in his face...whatever...4 more games laddies, lets get this done!!

I didn't want to address this post but it's been bothering me so whatever, I will.
I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm sick of all the drama so it's a shame you thought the game wasn't 100% legit. I NEVER switched to a center and tipped the ball manually (like AKA does, not calling you out AKA) I went for plenty of steals with AI, because he's AI! I swat a lot on the ground when I'm frustrated and I did so last night. I have Gerald Wallace, AI and Ben Wallace all on the floor with great defensive steal awareness so naturally I'll get plenty, both manually and automatically
I'll address the steals and the tip ins.
Big Ben got a couple steals that I can recall, one was one of those frustrating ones but I swear it wasn't me controlling him, and the other was just a lucky swipe by me.
I only went for offensive tip ins manually a few times all game. The one that frustrated you was questionable in its realism, but after not playing the game for ages I was really giving that game my all, so naturally I'll do what I can to win. Going for the ball a couple times manually when I'm out numbered, instead of letting the dumbshit AI go for it is not something I should have to apologize for.
Oh yeah, and Joe Johnson is a borderline all star, he's more than just 'normal'! I happen to just stink with him so he doesn't take many shots.
