:idea:
Alright here is a list of some features I would like to see in the next ESPN Basketball series:

1) In game saves for all different modes (franchise, exhibition, etc.)

2)Held ball situations where a jumball will decide who gets possession.

3) Dive ball situations where you can also throw the ball off of the defender's leg so the ball goes out of bounds and your team keeps possession of the ball.

4) Live is doing a 10 man free style. are you doing this? if yes forget about this.

5)I know the game did not come out yet, but if the Isomotion is limited to dribbling moves and post moves on offense add some deadball moves like the jab step, the triple threat stance, and etc. For people that don't have the ball on offense they can do all kinds of cuts, fakes, and set screens.

6)Try to have a full All-Star weekend with the Rookie-Sophmore game, the All-Star game, the Three Point Shootout, the Skills Challenge, the dunk contest would probably be the hardest feature to implement because of creativity. Maybe you should dedicate every controller button to the dunk contest that way we can do any kind of dunk we desire. Probably dedicate one to the type of pass like off the glass, bounce off of the floor , or teammate alley-oops. Dedicate another probably to left hand, right hand or both. Another for turning 180s, 360s, and etc. Another button probably for pumping. And another for windmills and another for between leg, behind back type dunks. You may want to take advantage of the backboard and the whole court to execute any dunk a person desires. Try to make it so that you won't have to put in a ridiculous amount of button combinations to execute the dunk. You should probably have a person put in the button combos to make the dunk for the creative part and then time it right for the execution part. Meaning if one button is for a bounce off the floor alley oop, another for a 360, and another for a left handed windmill then you would put in a certain button combination in a certain order. and then when it comes time to do the actual dunk you have to time the jump right or you will either miss the dunk or land back on the ground before you get to do a one handed 360 windmill off of a self bounce pass alley oop. If you don't understand what I mean then let me know.

7) For Custom teams I hope you have a create a jersey, team logo, and arena feature.

8 ) Try having something similar to basketball cards where a bio of each player including created players are recorded with the player's d.o.b. full name, hometown, birth place, stats, career highs for the season and play offs, and individual awards and championship rings, and statistical titles.

9 ) Live has the pro hop or step(jump stop) so if you don't have it I think you should.

10 man freestyle is a misleading title for what live has. however, i agree that every game should have a ten man mocap. Also, a dunk contest can wait. like you said, its the most complex
I agree with every thing else. (especially create a team options and hop step)
