This has to be the worst basketball game ever. The "All play" controls are annoying for anyone who actually wants to play the game. There doesn't appear to be anything that allows you to disable the "all play" settings, and just control everything on your own. Instead you'll constantly fight with the computer over control of movement and other controls.
The players all move slow, it's WAY too easy to steal, for instance, I averaged 20+ steals a game, while passing is annoying as it's completly too easy to have passes picked off.
There is nothing to this game, calling plays do not work, instead you just make a regular pass. Find your 3-point specialist on your team every play, and have him shoot it, as long as he's got some space he'll make it over 90% of the time.
I absolutely hate this game, it is horrible. Not to mention, the stats for most players are unrealistic.
Examples - Dwight Howard has range just short of 3, Deron Williams cannot dunk, and sucks at passing, Mike Dunleavy is a top 10 player, Carmelo Anthony is an elite rebounder, and the Knicks are decent.
The people who made this game obviously do not watch basketball.
