Allowing goal tending makes this game waaay too easy. The most obnoxious thing though is missing steals because the two button combo for them seems a bit off. You should be able to steal without turbo, just make stealing easier with turbo. Similar to NBA JAM. Which this totally isn't a modern take on. >.> <.<
Also, the stealing mechanic as it is right now makes on fire so overpowered. You can just destroy the other team with steals while on fire. 42-11 in LA because I got on fire early in both halves.
I love the courts, btw. The only time I lost a game was to a buzzer beater in Seattle because I got rocked by the fish lol. I did win the second game against them like 38-11. The only court I didn't enjoy was Toronto. I feel it was just a bit too slippery. I think it would have been more enjoyable if only parts of the court were slippery.
All in all, a great take on the NBA JAM formula!
