3 things I need tips on!

[mattlanta]

I'm not exactly struggling with this game, but some aspects of it are disappointing / frustrating me... I'm just wondering if you guys have any tips or advice on how to fix or at least help with some of these problems...

The first problem is my computer teammates keep leaving the player they're defending wide open. For some reason today, when I was playing the Raptors, they kept leaving Hedo Turkoglu open and I kept going on replay and Marvin or Maurice Evans kept leaving him as if they were helping someone on D, but no one even needed help on D so I don't get it... I'm playing with Greene_Flash's sliders, but his help D is set on a pretty low level (don't remember it off the top of my head).

Next problem is that I suck at shooting threes. I'm playing on All Star, with the Hawks, and I'm missing wide open three pointers. I 'perfected' all of my shooters' shots, and I'm still missing them. I'm playing on the default '50' three point slider by the way. Just wondering if you guys do anything here that helped you shoot a better percentage from the three.

Speaking of threes, is there a way to make your player step back to shoot a three? When my players catch the three and they're behind the line, they keep putting their foot on the line so they're only inches away from the three. If I move back a little with the controller it seems like they go straight out of bounds. Which is frustrating also... last year they didn't have the problem as the players usually stepped behind the line if they were even close to it. This year, they keep leaving their foot on it.

I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

EDIT: Ok, so this is the fourth thing I need help on... I can't seem to make shots in the post even when it's a mismatch (for example, Al Horford against Nate Robinson, Josh Smith vs. Bellineli, etc.) Is there something you guys do in the post that you often find success in?

On the 3 shooting, I won't be much help. I'll just say that I play on Pro, have the 3 point shooting at 49, and I'm only OK. I play with the Magic, and they're pretty good from that range, but I just consider myself average at best.

The part of your post I don't understand is about the defenders leaving your man. Since the patch, I have not seen a whole lot of this. Are they flat out leaving? Or are they getting tripped up on picks?

Every once in a while I still see this, but then I remember to go into Coach Settings, change double team to Never. My defensive help is pretty high, and I don't usually mess with it, but this is something you can check out too. Once I look at these 2 areas, I usually don't have any problems.

I know you've probably already messed with this stuff, but if you haven't, let us know how it goes.
