I have played gameplay fix 9.4 many times, I like it because its some very smooth looking gameplay. The only things I would really change would be more passing (but not too much like in beta 9.5) which has too many unecessary passes. In 9.4 it gets a little boring standing there guarding the point guard who takes like 10 seconds to set up a play. This happens too much. I would suggest the PG should run down the court get near or around the three point line, bounce a little then pass, other player who recieves the ball also passes to another player or if he is wide open then shoot if he is a good shooter. If it is a pretty good player and is being defended, he should dribble around a little or try to drive in if he gets defended too good while trying to drive in, then he should pass. Mostly every player who gets the ball should bounce 2 or 3 times then pass. If great player like Wade, Kobe, James, McGrady etc.... he should try to do a little 1-on-1 with his defender try to do some moves and drive in for a lay-up. If double teamed, then pass the ball to open teammate.
Of course setting up plays should still remain in the game, but not too often, instead do more passing involving more teammates, more time consumption. While still smooth looking gameplay.
Perhaps this is too difficult or impossible to fix for NBA Live but you see what I mean.
