Best settings?

What's everyone's views on the best settings for NBA Live 2005? I am using default settings, and I find I am caught (talent-wise) between starter and All-Star. With All-Star, the opposing defense swarms over me so quickly, I cannot get off any 12' or 15' jumpers and anyone with average or below-average dribbling ability loses the ball quickly. But with Starter, Jason Williams, Kobe and Jerome Williams each can have 10+ steals easily and I run away with games I should not run away with as a result (I have played as the Knicks, but I traded for Jason Williams and Kobe...losing Crawford and Marbury...and I have dominated teams like Minnesota, Houston, San Antonio).

What's the best settings at both Starter and All-Star levels so the game is a bit fairer and more realistic? At Starter level, how do I adjust it so that I am not dominating each game through steals? At All-Star, how do I adjust the settings so the opposing D isn't eating me for breakfast?
