Do you guys recommend using Absolute or Camera Relative with aiming?

I like the shot stick post moves. Especially fadeaways. I would recommend absolute if you playing from a side view like broadcast or beluba.

absolute shot stick always. regardless of camera.

even if you look like youre hitting it in the direction you want for something the game won't always recognize it as correct and youll start doing things you dont want because you were off by just enough to trigger a different move

I'm using the square button all the time to shoot, except for the hook.
But as a Post Scorer, I don't even need to take fadeaways as I got the Dropstep, the Spin Post and the Drive Post that are very effective!
Just fake spin and then drive, or fake spin then a dropstep, it is very effective. Fadeaways are often greens but it ain't cool when you freeze a lil bit when you shoot your fade

The shimmy move is....

LS (neutral) + LT + RT + RS (Left or right)

RS left or right will give you an innacurate shot as i explained earlier.

shimmy with post button+sprint button and shot stick down. lean left/right with the left stick to influence which way the shot turns

I only use it on the paint, so the aiming is taking out.
