Quote from shiftteam17 >> is Black Friday Kawhi better? This is hard to say, I have both and they play basically the same. I'd say Kahwi's defense is more noticeable but George is more consistent on offense.

From what I've seen he's very solid on manual and can do damage on AI. He's not my primary shooter, but he can knock down some big shots. His D isn't half bad either.

Quote from YoungFrobe >> idk if it’s just me but it all feels the same. You walk down the court and each lineup has their power forward at the top of the key (wide open everytime might I add). Which is really annoying when your power forward doesn’t even shoot 3’s which is why I chose the balanced and tried out the defensive style because I don’t like my big men at the 3pt line. Yet each lineup has them on the 3pt line This complaint has been mentioned from the very beginning of S2. Sadly, the different styles of coaching only seem skin deep rather than completely different sets and styles. Case and point, I've got a defensive, shooting, and balanced elite coach and I swap them quite regularly depending on what lineup I'm facing. They all play the same. I do feel like lineup matching (from season 1) has more influence this season.

Quote from DedHedJosh >> So my take on all of this is that why are we just sitting here bitching on this forum?  At some point I say we all actually email EA.  We can easily point out how their other two sports mobile games receive a lot more care and devotion to their following.  This forum has become a daily bitching ground. Which I understand to an extent, but that being said it isn't doing us any good.  The higher ups obviously don't come to this forum and read our grievances.  Devs do but if you think they are passing along the hate they have received to the people that matter you are sorely mistaken.  I think we can all come together to send emails over a two day period.  And without just bitching.  We can make a post with some very clear talking points.  From there we can write with a clear message that is mostly uniform in nature.  We don't need to put all of the things that each of us would like to see but instead follow a guide of major issues that we have noticed this season and pass it along to the proper people that might actually make a difference.  Until we are proactive in a positive way will we see the change we actually want.  Even if this promo pans out ok I can't help but to agree that their other games have much more content and are looked after a little better this season.  I know each has had their issues through years of development which is why nbalm season one had a lot of promise and came through with a decent game.  This season seems as if we have taken a few steps backwards in many areas of the game.  There is a lot I like but ultimately I can't help but feel last year was a better game.  Anyways this is my thought on it all.  As a community we can make an actual difference and do it in a positive way.  I enjoy nbalm and don't want to see it go to the wayside...

Quote from Senordroop >> Quote from TorchBeak >> Unfortunately, I'm quite confident that my WorkBook is the best anyone will get this season, in terms of a database.  While that's something that I would take pride in, it speaks volumes about the direction the game is headed.    Lack of a DB means the future of the product itself is foggy.

Quote from jetsteve >> Y'all seem a bit premature.  I don't think you can judge this promo yet.  Who knows what's in the presents?  Maybe it's crap, but maybe it's good.  We are being given additional objectives, apart from the daily objectives, instead of live events to grind.  Finish one and another pops up.  Or so it seems.  I say give it some time.  But then, I'm an idiot. While I understand your position, I completely disagree that you cannot pass judgement on the promo yet. Is the entire promo released? No, of course not, but for those of us that played last year's Christmas promo it looks awfully familiar and actually plays worse. It feels lazy and uninspired and it's a justifiable position to hold based on the fact that EA has made some very "questionable" decisions this season.

Quote from JukeNukem1432 >> I refuse to believe that this is it. I'm still expecting some master/boss players lol  If the trend follows masters, elites, and golds will be released around Christmas eve. Presents will mostly be program stuff and the christmas promo tokens/golds/elites. There's more coming, including more 91 legend elites that are rare as hell. It's actually quite disappointing thinking where the game was at last year vs this year at this time.

Quote from benkangquan >> FYI, last season master sets was only released on Christmas Eve I remember but last year just seemed so much more involved with the presents. This one is do drills until you can't take anymore for "chances" at tokens for presents. It may get better with more content but this feels like a watered-down version of last year. No new ideas, no new more fun ways of doing things, just dull grind or buy.

I really don't  know what to say anymore. It's a worse copy and paste version of the start of last years christmas promo. With a whole 2 91 unicorn legends. Are they closing NBALM and not telling anyone? Because honestly that's what it feels like.
