Need to know how to finish around the rim

I miss easy layups. I'm missing easy dunks. I'm missing putback layins. I'm missing driving layups.

How do you finish layups?

Gonna need a bit more info.

What mode are you playing?
What difficulty are you on?
Are you taking shots while you're surrounded?

Hold the shot stick the opposite way of the defender...

I.e if a defender is on your left finish by holding the stick to the right...

use players who are good at them is may suggestion

dunks on the other hand, I've had my fair share of open dunks go flying out of the rim already....pretty annoying

haven't had any issue with lay ups or put backs though....there really isn't a trick for it

just don't go up for a putback with any scrub...if he's a good inside player either go straight back up, or pump fake and try to draw the defender up in the air for the foul

Hall of Fame, Sim sliders.

I play with the Nets and can't finish any layups with Joe Johnson after getting a step on my man. I like missing layups I would just like to know how to hit contested layups and finishing in moderate traffic. I also can't make put back layups with Brook Lopez

I also played with the Hawks to see if the issue was my bum Nets. I had trouble finishing with Millsap, Horford, and Teague as well.

Re: Need to know how to finish around the rim

No offense but why are you playing on HOF already ?You don't think you should learn the game first before jumping to that level?

Re: Need to know how to finish around the rim

I've gotta say, EVERYTHING about driving inside feels great, EXCEPT when you miss a dunk. In no way am i saying i want to posterize everyone. But i thought it was my 57 dunk rating until my buddies with high 80s missed as well. A dunk is like a 99.9% shot. I've seen missed dunks, but there really isn't a higher percentage shot in the game. I'm cool with going inside, missing a layup, getting my board, and missing again. Even tho that's like an 80% with like a 95% chance to draw a foul. I'M STILL GOOD WITH THAT! I just can't stand watching the ball rim out when it should be a goal tend or a block at least.
