I use handoffs a lot. If I'm running a swing set, I usually take the hanoff instead of the swing pass. When plays break down I use manual handoffs. I use it in the Park and Pro-Am too. 2K17 should have handoff screens and shot animations off of handoffs. They also need to give us the ability to attack going downhill.
This is actually what they need. It's the one thing that is missing from the hand off. Is the screen part after. The player just stands there. But I do shoot on handoffs once in a while. If my opponent goes under. I'll usually pull up for a 3. That's when the player should screen up. Even mixing in some offensive fouls would be a nice mix.

I didn't start using the manual cut up until a month ago online. I thought it was cheesy at first. But after playing some of my offball friends offline over the holidays. I found it to be super effective vs humans playing off ball. Because I've notice humans just can't react fast enough playing with big man.

I love using the manual cuts but I still struggle to select the guy I want to cut in time. I feel like even when I try aiming the left stick toward who I want, It always selects someone else for me. I just need more practice with it

Had no idea about the manual cuts. I use handoff mechanic occasionally..

i use the hand off button but i usually just use it to bring the wing from the corner so i can make a cut or get the offense moving. I use the cut button as well but not alot because i do not know how to use it on a specific teammate. the few times a game i do use it, is when the defense is not in a zone which is rare but it happens. in which i attack the rim via the baseline. usually when i use the cut.

Re: Two Buttons People Are Not Pressing Enough in NBA 2K16

I probably over use both these buttons. Especially the cut to basket.

I really only use the handoff button when I'm trying to get some movement going with my wing players.

I love the handoff. You can use the big to set a screen and have the guard blow right through.
