I currently use a PS3 controller on my pc. I'm assuming you have the DS3 tool (motioninjoy). If so, open the program, go to driver manager, click load program, and then go back to profiles and select the xbox 360 controller option. Then enable and boot up the game.

I don't see a load program button but there's a load driver button is that it? Also the analog'a don't seem to work during test.

Yes its the load driver button

I recommend you getting a xbox 360 controller though, that ds3 tool is sometimes a pain, not worth the hassle

But yeah, the settings for ds3 tool which worked for me when i was using it is selecting custom profiles, set everything as gamepad buttons except for the analogs which you set as gamepad axis

Then when you get to the game, set the buttons and analog to proper assignments

I use a ps3 pad with motionjoy and the xpadder.

What's pissing me off is they're not shooting the ball as soon as i press the button sometimes. I don't get it because it's the same button as steal on defense and that always works as soon as i press it.

I'll kick the ball out to someone that's open, try to go up for the shot immediately and he doesn't do it, i don't get it. Do you have to like pre-load the shot or something and press it before he even catches the ball ? (like with the throws in MLB The Show ? )
