Why am I missing so many layups?

[thecomic]

I play All Star Level with adjusted sliders (pared's) I have cpu assistance off.

Every single game I probably miss 15 layups, I mean easy, uncontested layups. I don't see this happening to the cpu, so it must be something I'm doing.
<----how i feel, I'm the Kings and I'm 5-7 right now, but I should be 11-1 if I would just make the stupid layups.

I know the feeling. I'm the Wolves, I should be 7-1 but I'm 3-5 and mostly because of missing little shots. I don't think it's anything you're doing. I didn't adjust the sliders, but I'm having the same problem. I think that the computer bodies you when you attmept a lay-up. I've found that the best thing to do is just pick good shots, and just expect that you'll blow some wide open lay-ups. It's really annoying though.

Are you releasing the layup button at the peak of your jump, similar to a jumpshot? It took me a little while to figure out that you can't just press the layup button and have it go right into a layup animation.

Re: Why am I missing so many layups?

Layups are not like jumpers. There is no early/perfect/late release nor is the release a timing specific issue. Whether you make your layups is a matter of who your player is and who is defending the layup. If you're missing open layups with no one defending you? I have no response for that one.

You have to take them unchallenged, or fake your defensder and then lay up.

I am finding the CPU missing a tonne also...if i turbo my last man back and challenge the shot, they miss about 1 in 2 if they lay up.

If the dunk...forget about it.

Funny how it depends on the team...I got killed by the Cavs, who were throwing down HARD every fast break...

But I could stay close to the Pistons who seemed to lay it up a lot, and I was forcing them to miss by turboing back to challenge the lay ups.
