Attack the Basket drill....

[gerg1234]

anybody have any success on the attack the basket drill? I'm terrible at it. Plus even when I get a dunk I only get 50 points (I get 100 for missing a layup)

I believe you get 150 for a dunk (attempt shot=100, made shot=50).

I had the most difficulty with this drill, but eventually, I kinda cracked it. My first medal was a gold, which I got last night.

Basically, I don't do any isomotion moves. I hold turbo, go all the way to the right baseline, and then direct myself towards the hoop. You can't go out of bounds, so you just draw the first defender in, then get around the second defender, and when you're under the basket, you should be able to attempt an under-the-hoop lay-up (where you do like a little 360).

Just take about 5-6 seconds to get close the hoop, and whatever you do, don't take a face-up jump shot by mistake.

i cheesed this drill hardcore when I was trying to get a player to an 80 dunk rating.

Run directly at them, prohop/spin hop, whatever, Y/Triangle then layup. It gets close, but as long as you make ~5 layups, you will get your gold.

yeah the prohop works almost everytime.. just try and get close to the ring first and take your time doing so..

Guess this explains why I failed miserably attempting 2 do this drill with pure skill (which my player lacked) lol

I just held turbo and ran slightly to my right. as soon as i approached the free thrown line i moved the right stick to the right and he goes into a layup animation automatically. Basically making the first defender look like he was never there and then colliding with the second one. Most of the layups go in.

Re: Attack the Basket drill....

yea i did that with my center i just ran past the elbow then did the pro-hop spin move and got buckets.

Turbo and the prohop button gets you right at the rim every time. And I do mean EVERY TIME.

I can't imagine how anyone could dunk the ball though, unless they're a PF or C.

I've created athletic SGs and SFs and haven't thrown it down yet doing everything I possibly could do.

Re: Attack the Basket drill....

I almost threw it down once but he missed it due to contact

Re: Attack the Basket drill....

This is where I discovered how unguardable the pro-hop/spin move is. My biggest fear is that this wont be addressed for 2K10. If not then this could be a gamebreaker.

Re: Attack the Basket drill....

How often do you guys recieve a + 1 dunk? I've done the drill at least 10 times, only to recieve layup and vertical upgrades. Never anything in dunks

I totally agree. I hope this gets tweaked before the final version releases. Seems to easy to pro-hop/spin. If not, then I suspect the same results from last year with the spin move.

I think once. I had a center and I dunked it about 4 times. Took some getting use to though.
