Experience with Hall of Fame difficulty?

How is the gameplay for you in Hall of fame difficulty??

Im in Create-A- Legend mode with Lamarcus Aldridge and I am amazed at how dumb my teammates are in covering sharp shooters. They double over to a non threatening post player and leave a guy like Nash or Carter wide open..Seriously? Is the Hall of Fame difficulty gonna make it difficult like that? Hopefully this doesnt continue. The suns just shot 18/30 3pters. A lot of those 3s were just a stand and shoot jumper with their man just standing right in front of them..

You have to also change your settings on the fly. For shooters like Nash and Carter, make sure their match-ups play them tight. You can also change Defensive Strategy to "Pressure Shooters" and Defensive Play to "Man to Man"

HoF really only affects the opposing team imo.

HOF is designed to make the opponent "better" then you. Usually I missed more often vs All-Star, so I stayed on All-star because I don't like random variables throwing off the whole game.

How do I do that? I dont think I can do any coaching while im playing CAL or My Player mode.
