Straight from Beluba...


<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><tr> <td style="background-image: url(/vBulletin/images/quotes/00.gif); width: 100%; height: 1px;" width="100%"> Post Play:
tap Shot = pumpfake
double tap Shot = up and under
tap Shot, move LS or RS left/right = fake and drive
turbo + RS left/right = drop step
RS left/right = post spin
Shot with neutral LS = hook or post turnaround
Shot with LS away = post fade
LS up prior to dribble = pivot to face up

on defense it's a rock paper scissor game. If you guess the right way with LS when offensive guy makes a move, you increase your chance of a strip or steal. Ratings are factored into the dice roll as well

time Steal or Block when ball handler makes his move or shot to strip or block

also if you're controlling an offball defender, double from the blind side and time your Steal button as you come in. Sometimes you can pop the ball out that way.

Re: Post moves in live?

even though they have this lil move list the post game is still weak imo. Dwight doesn't feel like a beast like he is in real life and everybody has the same post moves...i wished the ea team would of put more individuality to the players in the post like the guards have...that would of made the game even more better.

I haven't been able to tell in the demo but in NCAA 09 (where Live 10's post game originates) you could tell the difference based on the success of drop steps and spin moves. Hopefully with sliders we'll be able to get the good post players to feel and perform better than the average joes.

I agree the post game is not as strong (not as many movements) as in 2k, but check this video for example:

More than enough, more than most people will use.

Besides some movements in 2k like the up&under were overdone and overeficient, so I'll stay with the more real movements of Live although they might not look as flashy.

Regarding Howard... do you remember the Finals against Lakers.... mmm... I mean, yeah, I can do some nice spins, drop steps, and dunks with him, but playing in All-star or Superstar you cannot expect to score everytime he gets the ball in the paint.

I find the game in the post very well balanced.

Yes, it is great, and the video no shows the face up option, that is the D.Howard favo play.

I don't expect to score with him every play, but he just don't got that dominate feel to him and i liked the video but i didn't like it at the same time cause it just proved my point that the ea team didn't show no love to the post game. Everybody has the same moves and kobe's fadeway should be different from anybody else but no everybody does the samething the same way.
