The commentary in this game feels far too bland. It has no personality, shooters are either guarded tightly or not at all, every pass is a 'great' pass rather than just being a decent one that was smart, there's too few lines describing each possible situation in a game (like jump shot from the wing or driving layup), and it sometimes doesn't describe what actually happened to the best of detail.

There's this other game I play that has a great commentary system with a huge database of lines, thanks to the ability for any user in the game to submit lines (which are then judged by moderators). That sort of thing could be a great way to make the commentary of each game some unique flavour instead of the same pool of lines being used in every single game on the site. I'd like to see it implemented if possible and if not, at least expand the commentary database a bit so the same lines don't show up several times a game please...

And on a gutsy move exploiting the defense Player A bounces the ball through the defenders legs driving to the basket, goes up, and slams home a 1-handed windmill jam!


Shot missed

I love this wide open shots, under high pressure from the defender. Need more of those definitely.

Player A is fed down low by player B, plants, spins, shakes his defender... Goes up strong for a dunk.

Neither team can corral the air all. Refs rule team A touched the ball last.
