Well, to tell you guys the total truth... I also installed the PC version last night, and played a game on all-star difficulty. The first half was easy going and scoring was abundant and all, but the defense really kicked in, especially in the fourth quarter... I couldn't get to the hoop and scoring was hard... It's not all fun and games... The first quarter may seem like that, but the end of the game is pretty rough going... And this is on all-star.
Though, this is only based on a single game.
The shot control thing is automated... So the release is automatic. There are some post moves in there, although the big guys get doubled fairly quickly so there is no extended time to see if the "own the paint" is implemented or not (still 1 game played)...
There are some minor bugs that don't really effect the game that much. After free throws, you can't immediatly move the active player, at least when he's at the key... And players sort of flock the ball after the last made free throw -> They all head for it, instead of heading up the court (c, pf).
They've changed the free throwing from the right analog to the left analog... Which was kind of strange and gets a bit of getting used to.
It's ok, if you don't expect it to be miraculous...
