Re: Defensive Tips Thread

I'm having trouble stopping fastbreaks...it seems as if the computer gets a 5 second head start on fast breaks and my players are too slow to catch up, and what results is two points.

Also the pre-determined defense animations are bugging me, I like to have total control of my players. I don't there's a way to stop the pre-determined animations but what are some tips on playing good defense with this preset defense?

Yeah, they CPU always gets wide open fast break dunks with no one even 20 feet from them. Its really annoying

Re: Defensive Tips Thread

is there any way to switch defensive play calling. like i don't want to just be able to play half court M2M, full court M2M, double team, or 2-3 zone. i'd like to be able to use different types of schemes. this goes for offense as well. even though i don't really follow plays on offense.

how can i switch defensive plays?

Re: Defensive Tips Thread

I have yet to figure out how to do any of the intercepting animations that the cpu does on Defense. I have so far seem him stick his hand in the passing lane and catch the pass. I have seen the CPU tip the pass in the same manner. I have also seen guards jump and tip the pass as soon as I let it go. But nothing I do seem to duplicate these defensive animations.
While I am at it, can anyone tell me how to dive for loose balls on the PS2?

As for the double team animation, I am not sure if this works, but it seem like I have better results of free the ball if I continue to tap the right analog stick in the dirrection that the ball is. If the are struggling for it up high I keep tapping up and so on.
