NBA Live 08 full game: Heat @ Celtics
by 
This game features the Miami Heat facing off against the new look Boston Celtics and is played on All-Star difficulty.
A couple notes:
I’ve seen comments in different places about the aggressiveness of point guards and that is true to a certain extent. You’ll need to play good defense on them otherwise they’ll drive the lane or pull up on you. However there is a big difference depending on who the PG is. Face Jason Kidd and he’ll terrorize you when you’re controlling Earl Boykins (trust me on this one) but here Jason Williams wasn’t really a big concern of mine.
I noticed a few auto-subs made in this game for the CPU. I doubt it was necessary given the little fatigue that comes off with the default settings, but that should mean you’d see more in longer games, or especially if adjusting sliders.
I’m going to attempt to get up one game video tomorrow, Sunday, and Monday. I’m looking at Chicago @ LA Lakers and Charlotte @ Atlanta. If you have requests for the thrid matchup make them in the comments. Sorry that I won’t be able to get everyone’s teams in obviously but I’ll choose at random from the suggestions.
I’ll also try and add some more responses in the questions/answer posting (added a few regarding dynasty today). I hope to record at least one online game as well, possibly tomorrow.
Continue on to view the videos.

When you guys say you can’t edit the appearance of a player do you mean its not even option to the point where you don’t even see anything that regards it? Or do you mean the option is there but you can’t make any adjustments because its because EA disabled the user from editing it like player weight or names?
If its the latter than maybe this could be fixed with a quick patch.
Though if its not even an option then I don’t think EA is going to fix the problem this year because it may cause them to have rewrite that part of the disc just to include it, and I highly doubt EA would do something like that.

editing the players shoe color head bands, arm bands and so on are locked. The option to edit players is in the game but EA has locked certain features for no other reason than stupidity from what it seems.

Could you do a Suns match? and please show some hot spots for the players? That would be great! Thanks in advance..

the thing I really don’t like is the way players get off the dribble. It’s way to slow, first step seems to be unexistant. And sometimes, the CPU overdribbles without moving, giving an impression of slowness. Otherwise, the game looks fine.

Does anybody know if the CPU now substitutes fatigued players? That was one of the annoying things for me?
