Cheap Online Play

[Malakai 2001]

I'd like to say that I am tired of people taking the games flaws and using them for there advantage playing online. Like for one trying to steal the inbounds pass every time down the court. Secondly the constant bumping of players making them constantly turn around till there late in the shot clock. Hell if I wanted to play football I have Madden for that
Also the pass deflections and steals are too high so when you do pass it around the horn to the open man most of the time its stolen and the other person is on way on a fastbreak.
And standing at the 3 point line pump faking is cheap.
I just think some of yall guys out there are making this game no fun. I'd really rather play online then play the cpu but I'm probably gonna go back to my franchise...............Im gettin bored of playing DALLAS, SACRAMENTO,and the LAKERS every game anyway.

There are ways to beat the cheap inbounds steal, dont forget the other player is just as vunerable as u in a full court press. Now when it comes to 'bumping' it is the offensive player who causes the bump moving into the defensive stance. If u stand still and do not move, no matter what the defence does he will not be able to move u there will be no bump, same if u use the backdown button, its impossible to bump. The BS pump fake like mad is abit crap, but the assholes who need these exploites also relie on them and when u figure out how to beat them(and believe me u will) u will just laugh and wipe the floor with em!
The best thing to do online is play with the same regulars all the time.

yea its very easy to break the inbounds steals and bumpin of your players and the pump faking. u just need to kno how to play. if someone full court press run around with yo pg to the open spot and just go like where the half court line is but dont pass it right in front of the player standing for the inbounds steal though. to stop the bumpin, just dont stand around with your player and use your freestyle more and make them pay for bumping u. as for the pump faking just hold your hands up whenever someshoots instead of jumping not unless u know for sure that they are gonna shoot. im ranked in the top 100 on live and ive used these skills to get me there. i play with memphis of course because thats my hometown and ive been using them since live 03 online and every since their rating has moved up so much on live 04 people think i pick them because of that which i dont.

ive ran into alot of cheap players online.. i play on PC and ive seen the worse but its funny cause i always end up on the winning side.. im ranked 34ovr and i dont play much online i like leagues better people know how to play real ball. i have a rule i play with teams 85orbelow if you want to play me that eliminates alot of the teams you see all the time all the low rank players play with the big team but i like to play someone with skills and knows how to use a team that doesnt have a good player at every position.
