Same broken game as other versions I played, no more no less. If you are a fan of the NBA and/or the game of basketball and think "maybe they have actually tried to do a decent game with a good gameplay this year", you can turn around, there is nothing for you here.

Screens still have black hole gravity, even when the screen is set not in the direction the player is running, the player still is pulled to the side against the screener. This is a problem for ages, they don't even bother to fix. Developers, testers, producers, everyone involved in letting this be a thing in the game and still lets it happen version after version, should be banned from game development and spend the rest of their days forced to play this game.

Double teams are still broken, so if you score 3 or 4 times you start getting double team every single time and then is just getting assist after assist to an open player under the basket, or a shooter wide open.

AI reacts to your button clicks, not to the actual action done by your player, so you drive and are being chased by a defender, you click to pass and way before any movement from your player to pass the ball starts, the defender reacts, stops chasing you and moves to adjust is position, it just knows as soon as you hit pass button, not when something in your player movement indicates or because anything changed in the game and they are reacting to it.

Player movement is still sluggish, it feels you are controlling Sunday players, not some of the best athletes in the world.
