Yes, it's the same for me. Harder to make a steal and the passes are still easily tipped by the opponent even when you think your teammates free to accept the pass, the ai will continue to move or the defender will suddenly be in front of him to tip your pass. I am having more turnovers than what was usual. I cannot alley oop anymore like I did before. My teammate instead of running towards the basket, ran to the 3point area. To think he's a forward that cannot shoot a three and yet he ran there in a fastbreak? I played 2 games with this patch now, and I almost lost to the wizards even when their overall is 69 and my team's overall is 77? :S
I also find that my 79 overall my player is being outplayed by a below 72 rated player and even shooting far beyond more than their average. My defense rate is 89. So I don't know why I suddenly become weak guarding or the AI just got a lot harder to guard now? They never missed. They pump fake and step, and shoot. Wizards was making all their shots in the 3rd and 4th. So I don't really think there was a change in the gameplay aspect.
Blake Griffin was my teammate, and he averages 19pts a game. In my last two games with this patch on, he makes below 12pts and that's mostly coming from freethrows. When he shoots inside, its either he was blocked (because he doesn't pump fake like he used to, he shoots right away like a newb) or either get fouled. He misses his freethrow now even more! And the field goal percentage of ATL and Wizards are 57% lol to think they are in the last in the team standing.
