even if 2K would confirm that u would have zero out of it cuz you seem to not doing it right.

edit: holding R Stick to the right does 3 things as far as i seen after a few matches:

1. Help Defense if you get beat off the dribble in a much smarter way then with the standard programmed rotations
2. Triggers your whole team to get out and contest every shot by open men which were left on the perimeter cuz of rotations
3. Being much more aware of passes and making deflections and steals (but i admit i didnt figured this one completly out, still need time to test it properly)

for those who think it doesnt work make the postgame tutorial and just always defend with you center, holding R Stick to the left and the L Stick always pushing into the offensive player, mix it with lock down D and you see other contest animations, at least i did
C'mon Son! Your telling me that ALL of this is triggered just by holding the right stick??? I think some of those stuff are just in your mind. I've tried this over and over and really do not see much difference. Only difference i've seen is that in the post my player defends the opponent really tight and pushes up on him....but i've seen nothing on the perimeter.

I played a few ppl online and i seen them switch to Absolute( i guess they were trying this strategy) but i still beat em off the dribble pretty easily.

Not knocking your strategy, but í havent seen much difference.
Good Help defense comes when you defend the regular way as well....i think you guys saw it happening and thought that holding the Right Stick actually triggered the better help D.
