        OK that works. So how 'bout the chest or lob pass?

          I'm not sure how to do everything yet... but when the guy has inside position and is calling for the ball, the player usually automatically lobs it in. I think the chest pass is what the "normal" pass is, huh?

            But you gotta admit those wrap around bounce passes out of the post up position are pretty sick! When they don't get picked off that is..

              Yeah, before I got adjusted to the bounce pass on the L-Trigger, I was consistently turning the ball over inside.

                  Yeah it does. It's really a joy to watch after he does a cross-over and pulls up for a mid-range J.

                    thats how every team in last years playoffs probaly felt...LOL...

                    off topic: as many players that have been crowned the next Jordan over the years, Wades performance over the entire playoffs last year was the closest thing ive seen to MJ to date.

                      Yeah a chest pass is normal pass but I wanna know how to do it when I want to do it. Sometimes they throw whatever pass they want. But thanx for the bounce tip. I'm sure the manual will clarify everything else

                        Ok so here it is. LT+A = bounce pass. LT+B=lob . Basically LT is the pass modifier. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but that's what's working for me.

                          I've been playing quite awhile, but for some reason, I can't make guys catch passes in stride. I don't think icon lead passing works, even when the recipient is moving. I try to use the lead pass button as often as I can when I see guys moving, but it always messes up my fast break when they stop to catch the pass. What should I do to make the pass recipients continue their forward progress towards the hoop after they catch the ball? Thanks.

                            Using the analog stick while passing tends to lead the guy on the fast break.. Maybe that is just my imagination, but it appears to work.

                              This game is full of jaggies on SDTV. VC didn't optimize it. I'm writing Take 2 and telling them to delay it.

                                You just have to use the lead pass button I think it was done this way becuase with the icon lead pass sometimes players would try to cut to the basket when they had an open jumper to take
