Yup, I agree. ranked club mode in 09 never got old imo. BUT this Adidas live run BS has already run it's course with me and I've only played bout 30 games.

Remove step back 3 and contested 3 point ability

add defensive stance control


This might be the worst ever!!! I am a real pro ball player, and I like the new additions to the game... but between J.Nelson, Mo Williams, C.Billups and more (Who all have unlimited range, but they don't in real life), all the of the step back 3's and contested 3's are stupid. We are teaching the kids, that basketball is all about highlights and the respect for the game is going down. The 7 games I have lost, have been vs people who don't know a lick of bball, but come down and step back 3 the whole game, or shoot 3's the whole game. Thats dumb, and shouldnt be allowed.

EA You have to fixed this, this is the biggest glitch in NBA Bball games ever!! I have been there through thick and thin with the NBA Live crew... even when everyone jumped ship to 2k, I am still here. But if this doesnt get fixed, I am done playing live online. My 9 year old kid can press buttons...

WELL 2009 IS OVER AND IM IN 2010 AND THE ADIDAS LIVE RUN IS OK ! THE NO FOUL CALLING IS WHAT MAKES IT SO BAD ! iT'S LIKE PRISON BALL !! EA NEEDS TO FIX THAT! pLUS I FOUND THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DO PLAY SQUAD WANT CLUB BACK ! I GUESS THEY PREFER TEAM BASED OVER RANDOM SELECTION. ALTHOUGH THE SELECTION PROCESS SHOULD HAVE HAD MORE PLAYERS TO CHOOSE FROM. I THINK U SHOULD HAVE INCORPORATED BOTH CLUB AND SQUAD PLAY SO THAT IT WOULD OFFER MORE OF A RANGE TO PLAYERS WHO LIKE WHAT THEY LIKE. YOU SHOULD BRING BACK THE ONE VS ONE OPTION ALSO OR MAKE THAT INTO AN ONLINE COMPETION MODE. AS WELL AS THE 3PT CONTEST AND SLAM DUNK CONTEST! I LOVE HOW TIP BACKS ARE BACK! DONT CHANGE THAT NEXT YEAR! MY SQUAD HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE CLUB PLAY EVOLVED IN 2009 AND WE ARE ONE OF THE BEST,WE PREFER FOUL CALLS IN OUR GAMES.ALSO...TRYING TO STEAL ON THE INBOUNDS PASS NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT BACK.THE GO TO MOVES FOR SOME PLAYERS STEP BACK SHOT IS JUST TOTALLY UNREALISTIC BECAUSE THATS ALL SOME PLAYERS DO ONLINE AND THEY MAKE OVER HALF THEIR SHOTS WITH IT AND IT'S SO LAME! EA PLEASE TONE IT DOWN CAUSE PEOPLE CAN MAKE THAT TYPE OF SHOT FROM 5FT AWAY FROM THE 3PT LINE...OBSURDE!!! BEING ABLE TO POST UP SEEMS MORE IMPOSSIBLE NOW...WHATS UP WITH THAT? I DO LIKE HOW U ELIMINATED THE EASY DRIVE TO THE BASKET! ALSO ADD SOME PEOPLE TO ADIDAS COURT OR CHEERLEADERS TO ADD TO THE ELEMENT OF CROWD SUPPORT ! ALSO CAMERA VIEW OPTIONS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDED TO ADIDAS LIVE RUN!!! ALL IN ALL ITS A GOOD GAME JUST LITTLE THINGS MEAN ALOT!

The one thing that really bothers me about online play is the opponents ability to hit three point shots. Brando Roy from the Portland Trail Blazers CAN NOT by any means hit 3 pointers back to back like it was a cake walk. I don't understand how an overall 69 in 3pointers can continuously shoot threes while he is contested. Another thing, for some reason every time I win 2 games in a row I always lose the third (for the reason I just stated). Now I don't know if its because you want the win 3 in a row achievement to be more challenging...but right now it just seems impossible. I don't think there is a single player in the game or in real life that can hit three pointers back to back (while contested) and not miss. Its just aggravating to be so close to getting the achievement just to get shut down.

I started a PS3 league cause I had an idea! I have always wanted to play in leagues I have set up numerous! My 3 son passed away from Brain Cancer in May and I got a PS3 I need to keep my mind busy without going nuts. Since then I have tried countless times to join leagues or make leagues. I would send people messages all the time reminding them to play. I tried to handpick players, and with no avail!
So here is what I am doing now I started a group on facebook! If the league hits and people join and be active in it I will have a website by Christmas! I will keep upto the minute Standings and League Leaders, trades all right their on facebook page or website.
We will vote for MVP at the end of season and other awards. Also We will have our plays of the week which will be off your plays uploaded from EASPORTSWORLD.Com Which will also get people watching your highlights. Weekly, monthly, and the plays off the year!
If this goes well then there will be more leagues and maybe we keep track of overall points and have a grand champion.
The winner of the league will get a prize! I am thinking a Ipod Touch or something like that will be the prize! If we have more tournaments and its a successful we will have a insane Grand Prize! But I don't want to jump the gun.
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=192429307614&ref=mf Heres the facebook group! I am Matthew Gregory Turpin from Vancouver! ID is DiscoTurp10 I also go by DiscoTurp12! on PSN. The league is called RBPU League. Add me to facebook and lets get this on! Dec 13th whoever has signed up and has proved their going to be active will be apart of this. IPOD Touch for the winner!
