Anyway, IMO, this GE was designed with absolutely no consideration for basketball played on a full court. The 'fast break' plays and broken last minute plays (I think they fixed it) where dudes made impossible ball advancements and shots the last seconds of a game...is evidence...


Nope, nearly impossible ball advancements are still in the game. I watched the end of a friend's last game and, with 1 second left on the clock, the ball was thrown full court to the baseline where the defender, guarding closely, defended the shot well enough to force the miss. Then the game ended. So, those last second ball advancements are still there.

I saw Matt Barnes do that in a Clippers game but the pass hit rookie Jared Cunningham at the three point line and he fired off a three with a defender closing out on him and it went in. That was the game where Blake Griffin hit the amazing last second three against Phoenix. It is possible for a full court pass to result in a shot, but some of the places the game decides the shot is taken from are very difficult places to pass the ball to when there is a defender guarding the man closely.

Orlando v Wizards last night. (tonight depending on ur timezone)

In bounds pass to alley-oop
Clock doesn't start until the ball touches the hands of a player or the floor (or the backboard/rim obviously).
So technically a full court lob, with 1 second left, even though it takes 2-3 seconds to get there, doesn't wind the clock down.
still not a real life scenario - usually teams call a time out such that the pass is not a full court pass. Ironically, the game engine doesn't call lots of time outs in the last 30 seconds of a game in order to simulate this.
So its kinda like two wrongs sorta make a right.

We must use our imagination, the coach called a time out, they threw it in from half-court etc.


yer thats it, thats usually what i do when i see odd things.
