I suppose you could play blacktop mode and do a 2 on 2 game. Maybe that would give some practice options for alley oops?

Like I said in the other thread. You can practice any inbound they have. Lobs don't work well.

Sorry just read your comment back on the other thread, but I don’t get bro, why can’t they insert those lob plays inside the game for us to practice…

So since we can’t practice those lob plays, they are not part of the playbooks, so my question is, if I am down with a second left, what do I do to win? Just manually control the center or power forward and stay under the basket and then just double click triangle to attempt a self-created lob play???

Input guys?

You can use those plays. But the Passer needs to be good and the player need to be wide open. I've only seen it a few times in practice. Never seen it in a game before.

I just control whatever player, make a beeline for the basket, and call for the lob.

So maybe for an example, using the video you quoted in the other thread, do I just pick a play that will get a player to cut into the basket, and then double tap triangle to see if the player cutting can catch the alley-hoop pass? Thanks.

and the success rate is? I kinda feel this is cheesy?
