          and use the right stick for passing too!! (RB+move the right stick in the direction you want to pass) might shave that extra second you need off a pass to fit it in a tight window

            After not playing a ton of 2K10 I really didnยดt know that you could actually lead the receiver, even make him fade or do a curl . Thanks a lot for that video, will really help

              GREAT way 2 highlight the passing in this video! Too many people are playing video game b-ball and thus ending up with a crazy # of turnovers. #playbasketballpeople

                Another good one!

                I was afraid there will be no "Don't play video games, play basketball", so I was relieved to hear it at the end. It's just not the same without it.

                    Most of the problems with turnovers in this game are a result of user error. But lets not act as if the passing mechanics and AI responses are above reproach. Hopefully in 2k12 we have options for the type of passes we'd like to make and CPU players on the user controlled team show just as much intiative as players on the team controlled by the CPU.

                      even though this video is for people who cant pass, they still will complain about how they cant

                        Excellent video from Prof. Czar. I love the passing options that we have at our disposal this year.

                          Another tip is using right stick passing. I find it a lot more natural than left stick passing. It's not as accurate as icon passing, but feels more natural than using left stick to both move the ball handler and choose the receiver

                            I happen to agree, throwing full cross court passes and careless tosses are the main culprits to passes being picked off.

                            I got tired of all star until I realized what I was doing. Just as Czar said, take a couple of steps towards the man you want to pass to, to get him the ball, or lead pass away from the D.. give yourself some space..

                            Needless to say im not having that issue beyond the occasional bone headed why did I do that pass that works against fundamentals 101...

                            Great session Czar

                              How new are total control passing and icon lead passing actually ?
                              Lead passing and offball controls where already in 2k9.
