Great game with horrible passing, rebounding and defense

Edit: Removing a star because the update made it VERY difficult to win games. My 80 rated team is struggling badly with 60 rated teams which is ridiculous.

First, this is a GREAT game! I play this WAY more than any other game I have. The are three areas that needs improvement. Those are rebounding, passing, and defense.

It is almost impossible to get a rebound! I have guys like 91-rated Bernard King, 95-rated Anthony Davis, and 91-rated Boogie Cousins, and yet, bronze players still dominates them on the boards; sometimes getting 4-5 offensive rebounds on one possession alone. It gets so bad at times, that I started looking for a “rebound” button thinking I was missing something!

Passing to a teammate is always hit or miss. Sometimes your player will be facing a wide open player under the basket, but when you pass the ball it gets passed to a player who may be standing behind you at half court. This unpredictable passing usually leads to turnovers or missed scoring opportunities.

And then there’s defense. The team defense is terrible. Your teammates literally just stand there and watch the other team drive to the basket for dunks. And even when you knock the ball out of the opponent’s hands, your teammates just stands there looking at the ball and watch the other team pick it up. Because of that, you often find yourself running around the court trying to defend every player on the other team yourself.

Other than those things, this is currently my favorite game on on iOS. Keep up the great work EA!
