I am about to get xbox live.
What do most people use in terms of camera angles online?
I prefer to use the standard one that flips a 180 after each change of possession. Are there any pitfalls to using that angl online?
I hate the side view.

Most people use the standard view, maybe a little higher or lower, but the standard view is what's used...

Standard view, im able to see the whole court. Online I was surprised that people can change the camera view, some people will change it and will not change it back no matter how you ask them, I avoid them.

Here is my policy. I think it's a good, and VERY fair one:
IF you are going to be putting double-teams on certain (or all as some ******s do) players, or pressing pause for ANY reason (if you're gaming, have the respect to do what you need to do BEFORE or AFTER playing), then you will play using the ISO camera view. That is my favorite view.
HOWEVER, if you are going to play this game fair and square (no mucking with the defensive intensity or double-teaming settings.....and not messing with the plays, since they're next to worthless IMO), I will play on any camera mode you want.
Sometimes I will be playing, then all of a sudden if I tie the game or take the lead, the other person will put me on hold for a long time or go changing stuff. This game plays great out of the box, human against human. The 'D' is only as good you execute it...as in switching players quickly enough, putting the big man under the basket, etc. People that can't do these things and must rely on computer settings are ******s big-time, and just lazy folks who want to run down the court and shoot threes all the time. I see this all the time!
Finally, I'm sick of folks using the TURBO button. Folks, it is EASY to see when you're cheating, why do it? Can't you win a game fair and square or at least have fun playing the right way? Heck, I got beat one time by 51 points and NEVER thought about quitting the game. In the meantime I gave that guy one hell of an ego bust. You know what? I had a blast!
Play me fair and square, on your own ability, and I will play on any camera angle you want. Otherwise, I'm just going to let you get a big lead then I will quit the game on toward the end, after I have let you mess with the settings all day long.

By the way, my gamertag is "sunnylamb". This isn't the first time I've put my gamertag up, but apparently there are just a bunch of sore losers around. If you are the kind of gamer I"m looking for, a SEROIUS one, set the camera angle to ISO right off the bat and I'll know you found me here :-)
Believe me, I ask my wife all the time if she wants to play...she just beat me today her 90's East-All Stars beating my Detroit Pistons by 20 points or so on Super-Star level, with foul-outs set to 3....so I like to play a lot! If you want to
