NBA 2K19 Teach Me How To Thread : Tips, Plays, Defense

Nah, cradle layups are a little different. They go straight to the rim whereas these are lateral.

Only have been playing MyCareer so far. Made a 6'9 240lbs Playmaking ShotCreator SF. After the prelude put the difficulty to HOF and it seems I cant stay in front of anyone for the life of me.

I can still be active defensively getting steals and blocks, but it is really troubling to stay in front of the ballhandler. Granted Im on the Pels and sometimes guard the 2 but I really cant keep anyone in front.

Anyone else experiencing? With the L2 lockdown gone, using RS has been iffy.

Does anyone know WHAT EACH icon means in game? I have no idea what the individual trait icons mean, other than obvious ones like the bulleyes , but I can't find anything about them. I don't care about my player stuff, I'm not into those modes, I'm an online or franchise kind of guy. I'm old

Well it's HOF right, so isn't supposed to be really hard?

I have noticed that the settings are harder in general... I play at PRO, and do allstar to challenge myself. Have been getting wrecked on all star this version, and can barely keep up on pro. I moved it down to rookie but changed the sliders so they're more challenging. Liking it more now...

The Ben Simmons running hook shot is real easy to trigger on absolute controls.

The ball just has to be in his left hand.

Then you run straight ahead until you get to the free throw line and hold up on the right stick (without turbo) to make him throw up the running hook with his left hand.

You can do it from a straight-on angle on a fastbreak, or you can do it in a half court setting if you catch the ball in the right corner and run into the paint in a straight line.

Anyone know what the knew “Four Corners”, “Grey 5” and “Grey 5 Elbow Iso” defensive adjustments do?

I remember listening to Scott’s live stream and he said something about there being an adjustment to 5 out? Is that one of these sets?
