Yes, I have Blake and Dwight and want to use them in this fashion in My Team when slow defenders play them tight, deep away from the basket.

How the heck do I defend the CPU taking two steps without dribbling ?

you really cant consistently, but with patch 3 you can get a step on those who play out of position, but thats compensated with the improved help defense.

Quick Tip

The LT / L2 is pressure sensitive : use this trigger with a fethering touch to get the best lateral quickness ability out of your player

Skillfully fethering the Intense D and Turbo triggers can single-handedly improve your on ball defensive skills

XxxxxxX

When faced with a pull-up: transition into using Intense D + Right Stick towards the shooter

XxxxxxX

The manual also distinguishes that Intense D plus block will initiate a swat block but I have no vague idea what the difference is between between a swat block and a standard block let alone what a swat block is

XxxxxxX

My big journey right now I'd learning how to play the system regarding avoiding shooting fouls.. if I use right stick alone I will not get a shot contest animation but I am susceptible to fouls if I use intense D... I wish the CPU would not initiate these animations on their own volition but even with 0 defensive assist strength I am vulnerable to these bites.. nevertheless intense D is advertised as a defensive assist in itself so I'm in a bit of compromise as is..

if i understand correctly we have to option to contest, block, swat block and vertical contest.

a swat block is an aggressive block that bats the ball with force out of bounds or away from the rim and in that case ( IRL) often leads to a fast break.

This was on a 97 rated baller. And i can tell he was no bum. Dude had 9rebs 9asst but 1-11 shooting. Defense is about focus. If u focus on ur assignment. stay in front of him. Don't reach. Get back on d. Good things will happen
