all setting high except player and crowd

the game runs smooth when you are on the ends of the court, the lag/stutter occurs when the player cross the half-court.. that's the time when i feel that the game is stuttering because the FPS suddenly drops for about 5-10 fps and then it returns to normal when you are already on the side..

anyone having this problem?

I do, just not so horribly. The reason is that the mid-court is the time when you see a lot of different details in one go (both benches, crowd, etc). Setting the game process' priority to realtime in task manager solves the problem for me ;0]

I think it's not because of graphics, mostly because of processor/mem. While corssing the half-court line, many things like tactics and players/refs behaviour change, so the game has to load and cope with the things. Everybody has such problems, not only you, bro.
Still, I don't recommend to set priority higher than "High", especially "Realtime", 'cause it may affect not only system-time to go the wrong way, but also overall system stability...
