shooting problems

[stratjim]

i'm new to Live 08 as I have previously been playing 06 (imo better gameplay), but no one's updating rosters for 06. anyway, i'm having trouble with wide open players under the basket and them refusing to shoot but rather throw the ball out (often for a turnover or a back court). i use a Logitech Rumblepad and i can push 1 (dunk/lay-up), throws it out or 3 (shoot) and again they throw it away.
what am i doing wrong. it's quite frustrating.

Sounds like a configuration issue. I don't recall NBA Live 08 having any bugs like that.

i've been playing 08 for months now, but i've never encountered that bug.. i think it just your configuration settings.
