XBOX 360 SLIDERS & PLAYBOOKS (BY PLAYMAKERS)

ALL work goes to Paymakers once again
PLAYMAKERS XBOX 360 NBA LIVE SLIDERS AND TEAM SPECIFIC PLAYBOOKS
I've finally completed the sliders and Playbooks. They have to be used as a package in order to get the best Simulation play out of Live 360. You can save each teams playbook before you start a season. The only thing you have to do before you play a game is take control of the CPU team right before the opening tip off (TWO CONTROLLERS IS THE BEST WAY). That will allow you to change their Strategy Sliders from 1-5 which controls how often a team Fastbreaks or Crash the Boards. I've listed those setups for each team aswell. It helps to see more of a difference in style of play from team to team. Once you have setup the strategy then you can then go and setup the Defensive Matchups. This only requires you to assign High or Medium Pressure towards your team players. If you have only ONE CONTROLLER these changes might not work and the CPU's Playbook might convert over to the same Playbook your team is assigned.
The sliders were built around the 3 bottom camera settings. It's takes a few games to get use to each camera listed but after awhile they become solid. The Baseline Cam is what I've grown to enjoy most despite for years playing the game on Press Cam. Press Cam will allow you to see more of the court which is good but the one draw back comes within the transition game occasionally it will be ahead of the action.
***For those looking for the best possible simulation play out of the game IMO if you set the Camera to Press View 10-H/8-Z and Gamespeed to 60 on 8 minutes qtr's it gives you a better SIMULATION feel. The CPU will actually setup their offense more often and take less quick shots and fastbreaks become toned down.***
Level: All-Star (PLAYER LOCK ON OR OFF)
TWO CONTROLLERS ARE HIGHLY RECCOMENDED IN ORDER TO SETUP THE CPU STRATEGY FOR DEFENSIVE PRESSURE AND DEFENSIVE PLAYBOOKS OR ELSE CHANGES MIGHT NOT SAVE DURING GAMEPLAY WITH ONE CONTROLLER.
Camera: (Baseline 10-Height/6-Zoom) (Press Cam 10-Height/6 or 8-Zoom) (Sideline 10-H/6-Z)
*BROADCAST CAMERA HEIGHT 10/6 ZOOM IS BEST SUITED FOR THE PLAYER LOCK STYLE OF PLAY*
Assign High Pressure Defense to all C's & PF's (Helps to allow more contact in low post play)
Assign Medium Pressure Defense to all SF's, SG's & PG's (Helps to keep perimeter spacing balanced out with ON BALL PHYSICAL DEFENSIVE SLIDER)
***Taking control of the PG only on defense helps to add more realism to the overall effect of the sliders during gameplay that's why I set ON BALL DEF ASSIST to 100. Let your AI TEAMMATES defend and contest shots as much as possible on their own and you'll see some great stuff happening all over the court***

REPLACE ALL QUICK PLAYS IN EACH TEAMS PLAYBOOK WITH THESE PLAYS THEN LIST ALL THE QUICK PLAYS AS THE BOTTOM 3 PLAYS FOR EACH TEAM.
*The Quick Plays are the first Pre-Set Plays in every teams Playbook example ISO/Post UP/3-PT
*Team Strategy is for Fast Break and Crash Boards Tendency ranging from 1-5 with 1 being the lowest and 5 being the highest setting with those sliders.
Each team has the same defensive playbooks. In order to get each team to use the assigned Defense I posted next to Team Strategy you must have two controllers. You then have to assign the specific play I listed as the very first play in their defensive playbook. Before the opening tip off or at the first stoppage of play you will take the second controller as if your playing a two player game then select the assigned play as the CPU DEFENSIVE strategy then switch the controller back to the middle and the CPU will play that style of defense.
NOTE:The only draw back to this setup is that the CPU will stay in that Defense all game. Unlike the regular XBOX or PS2 Live 06 they don't randomly switch up defenses during games so this has to be done if you would like to see teams play different styles of defenses in your season mode.
