Re: Official Moves List

Yep, pretty much all different. Practice mode...

Re: Official Moves List

When shooting jumpers, is the release for all the players different? Like say, do I hold the shot stick longer for one player while another player I can let off earlier? I can't hit jumpers consistently with anybody but Kobe and Fisher can't hit open 3s to save his life.

Yeah, the proper timing on the shot release is different among every player. Some releases are quicker than others.

Also keep in mind that it takes a bit longer to reach the proper timing on a shot release for the same player whenever that player takes a shot off the dribble than in comparison to where the player shoots after spotting up. For instance, let's say you're controlling Kobe. You would have to hold shot stick down a tad longer shooting a pull-up mid-range jumper off the bounce with Kobe than you would than whenever taking a standstill 3-pointer from the catch with him.

What's the secret to FTs, BTW? KB24 is the only one I'm good at them with.

If this helps at all... from controlling the Lakers in the demo I found that Fisher had an extremely late shot release on his FT shot, while Gasol's shot is relatively quicker. Odom's and Bynum's release seems similar to me with normal timing, so it may be their actual FT ratings that make it tougher for those players to make FTs.

Re: Official Moves List

FT's are the same deal as jumpers, just gotta get used to em after playing time and time again.

Re: Official Moves List

For FT's:

1st shot: release it a bit early
2nd shot: release it like normal

Maybe this is intentional, maybe its not, but I like how it makes shooting FT's harder, makes late game fouling a little more useful.

Re: Official Moves List

Any dunk tutorials? Any knowledge on how to do fancy/power/finesse etc dunks?

Toward the basket - Basic
Left of Basket - Flashy
Right of Basket - Power
Away from basket - Reverse

You have to use the shot stick though

[WTF]

Re: Official Moves List

Is it relative to the basket, or is it standard on the shot stick? I'm using the shot stick for the first time this year.. and enjoying it somewhat. Not bad. I want to see some Lebron flashy signature dunks, but have only pulled of 2, and didn't know how, haha.

Camera/basket relative.

I would like to add on the first free throw let the player complete his routine before you shoot the free throw, becomes not as delayed/laggy. Then the second shot, shoot when you are ready.

Re: Official Moves List

Try letting go of the L analog a little bit before doing an Isomotion move. This reduces the danger of accidental input.

Yep this is how it all clicked for me.

Cross overs are 45 degrees, not left to right.

I found the best angle (with the ball in the left hand) was going from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock in a one quick straight line.

Hesitation Cross, Double Cross and In&Outs are Left/Right, NOT 45 degrees

The in and outs are very hard to do as they are nearly identical do the behind the back dribble and the double crossovers are impossible to do with some players

Re: Official Moves List

Go slow and easy with the stick, except on the cross over. On the cross over, overcompensate on the direction to make sure you're at a 45 degree angle. Here are some quick tips.

Move slowly in one direction so you are sure which hand has the ball before the move. There is too much switching on the dribbling this year.

Cross overs are 45 degrees, not left to right.

Hesitation Cross, Double Cross and In&Outs are Left/Right, NOT 45 degrees

For moves using both Triggers, Grab L Trigger first, then grab R and go into your move when you have a comfortable position.

The Spin Move is longer than everything else. Don't combo into it or out of it unless without being aware of the extra space.

Tap R Trigger moves are easy and effective

Watch the L Trigger change of pace. It will punish you for erratic L stick movement.

Try letting go of the L analog a little bit before doing an Isomotion move. This reduces the danger of accidental input.

When u say crossovers are 45 degrees u mean up and down on the L stick right? Oh and i am using the showtime cam

I found going in a straight line from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock (in a straight line) was the way I got it working. Yep left stick.

Just tap the RT

Re: Official Moves List

The only move I can do consistently is the spin move, but that's pretty effective for me.

Re: Official Moves List

I'm good at Isomotion, but does anybody know how to throw the ball behind their back? I'm not talking the running behind the back move, I'm talking about the one where the ballhandler almost comes to a complete stop. It's a very fast move and I've done it at random, but I don't know how I did it.

Sounds like the stepback move. There a couple of animations for it but basically if you are moving towards the hoop, hold RT and move the Left Stick away from the basket. Some times the move comes out, and sometimes I just get a general stopping animation (which kinda sounds like the one you're talking about).

Hold both triggers and you can do the behind the back with the same effectiveness.

Same man, I'm struggling right now with Deron trying to pull off moves. I end up dribbling half the clock out. Oh well, it's either that or give it to Boozer and have him drop 40 &10.
