    I bought 2K11 really late, so I actually don’t remember.
    Max
    yeah, I had to put the zone on them. That slowed them some and gave me a chance. I still lost because it was the Hawks versus the Heat, and Eboy has made some changes to his roster, but it was a competitive game. It’s just too damn hard to play defense in general on the game, and the lag online makes it worse. Plus LeBron is super human. LOL. He had an Oscar Robertson triple double when we played, while Wade was shooting like 90 percent at one point.
    But, like I said, I had it down to four in the fourth and then the computer started making LeBron/Wade calls

    Cosign jukai….most games these days have major problems when they are first released (Call of Duty Black ops , Battlefield 3, 2k11 last year), but most of those issues are usual fixed with the games first patch/update

  • meloman2.0

    I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesnt like the gameplay. They have good ballhandlers causing turnovers like they scrubs who dont deserve to play

  • Youngindy21

    Still NO Reggie Miller. When will they finally add him? Its beginning to get ridiculous.

    If your having trouble dribbling, let go of the right trigger. All your problems but one (passing which does seem a little screwed up) will go away.

  • DJ MBENGA

  • aotearaw

    Wow, surprised at all these complaints, I absololutely adore this game…completely addicted. LOL@ the Live fanboys coming out of the woodwork now, sit the f*ck down with your weak-ass arcade game.

  • kantankruz

    Whoop-dee dooo, how about fixing the friggin game first.

  • orso94

    You must out of your damn minds claiming that Live is better than 2K.
    OK, 3pt shot percentages are up, players do not effectively challenge shots, and passes are often erratic.
    But I remember that Live changed its name to NBA Elite last year, and the game was supposed to come out a week after NBA2k11.
    Only, the game never came out, ’cause EA was affraid of getting owned, seeing how astounding 2k is !!
    Still no NBA Elite 2, either…
    I don’t miss dunking on everybody with Steve Nash in NBA Live.

  • justin t.

    still no charles barkley or reggie miller

  • Devonthesexyone

    So easy to hit threes. My leading scorers are always three point shooters, no matter their ranking. I guess guys complained about it being hard to shoot on previous games, but now the game is too easy. Its laughable.

  • OKalnins

    No Reggie… Well this pack seems useles

  • bigmike100
