I almost got a dunk or layout every time I tried going to the hoop on the All-Star setting. I had to try out the Superstar difficulty. I was still able to blow right past the computer's defenders, just not as easily as on the All-Star setting. The players in Live 99 seemed to be protected by some kind of shield. I was able to push the opposing player out of bounds without the two players actually coming into contact.
Steals occur by the bushel.
The second thing is the fatigue problem. I usually play 7 minute quarters and, believe it or not, the computer does not get tired. Seems like that should be part of Quality Assurance's responsibility, to catch obvious flaws such as the fatigue bug. By jumping up in the air. The players in Live 99 who just stay put without going airbound for the ball will usually come up with the rebound.
