I would agree with you here, that the complex offensive strategies brought forth by Aerial Assist truly developed a new feel to the game that we'd never really seen before. The idea that a human player could have so much impact on the game was kind of unheard of, at least since the early 2000's. Also, I didn't mind the ungodly defense, as it brought a new level of evasive maneuvers and shot precision to the drive teams. Plus, gotta love that bank shot from 254's human player...
