I just pulled something odd and funny of for the first time, and I was wondering if it has happened to anybody else: The "Basketball entered hoop backwards" violation!
I had fraps configured wrong, so I lost the actual call-graphic, but I saved a replay! The play got called off after MJ threw the pass!
I've had the ball go underneath the hoop and the points were scored! This wasn't just 2k12. Even in NBA Lives from other years. It's like the game programmed a laser sensor underneath the hoop that registered if the ball went through. Bizarre why that would be necessary (I used to go to arcades as a kid, climb on the machine, use my hand to wave back and forth in front of the laser sensor for the pop-a-shots, and get a lot of tickets for prize redemptions. HAHAHA)
