NBA 2K11 Isomotion/Shot Stick Help (360)

Me too. I still cant do a half-spin. I've tried many different techniques and I'm still struggling.

Weird. If I concentrate (and I only do that in practice drills ^^) it's working for me. But the half-spin is one of the hardest and most pesky moves I think. I never think about using it within a running game, would just fail too often.

Half spin is actually pretty easy. Just do it in one back and forth motion - don't hesitate.

And you can get by players easily. Again, learn the system. Not sure what the problem is with all the suction non-sense being mentioned.

I mean the fake like in your pic. But Kobe keeps going clockwise on his pivot, the guy i saw went counterclockwise after the fake. It looked a lot like the dream shake move you can do when you run <- and you press shot stick -> but it was initiated from the post.

I can't find any video footage of it being done in 2k11, but this is what it looked like (except it was at the top of the paint).

FYI I never found the video, but after tinkering around I think it involved somehow going from being engaged to the post to doing a flick-flick move. I still have yet to recreate that exact move but it has opened up a new door of thinking after doing a pump fake from the post.

Are there any posts that help with the flick flick move? It doesn't seem to work 100% of the time, even if I'm near the basket.

If you play street fighter think hadoken in reverse, then a regular hadoken (if your guy is going up relative to the analog stick). Make sure you don't do up down or you'll just do a step back.

Also a good way to practice is doing dribble drills in My Player. Just start a new my player with a point guard and you'll have 10 drills to start with. It gives you a somewhat "under pressure" environment to perform in, versus by yourself in freestyle practice mode.

I found that the half-spin move is much easier to do without pressing turbo.I know sometime is forget to take my finger off it when doing other moves but half-spin seems to really need it to be off. Works 3/4th of the time when i dont turbo with a PF with 35 handles o_0

I thought you have to hold down the left trigger only. Spin move and behind the back is simple for me. When I try to do the half spin I wind up doing a regular spin move or a step back.

Well yeah, gotta use the trick trigger but not the turbo. it's a really fast half circle, not even half sometimes maybe a bit left. It takes some practice.

Hey guys. Just started playing. What is the general consensus on here for RS shooting on 2k view, camera relative or absolute? Thx.

Try them both and use whichever one you like better.

Is there a list in this thread of all the moves?

One thing I've never been able to master in this game is the Pick and Roll and Pick and Pop, especially the PnP.

Is that the same as the PnR where you hold LB down and then release or is there something else that needs to be done?

Sorry if this has been answered already...

Just wondering how you do that, Back to the Basket shoulder shake then Turnaround that KG does all the time?

While engaged in the post the following moves are performed with the Right Analog Stick.

Shimmy Left, Fade and Shoot Right :: Tap left then right on the stick. Simply reverse the motions to go to the other side.

Double shimmy, a left, right, left move :: Double tap to the left direction. Double tap to the right to perform right, left, right move.

You can also go further on this by holding the Clutch button to fake the move, then follow with another post move.

Thanks for the tip

I think my MAIN PROBLEM with this game is that these controls, to me at least seem very COMPLEX... I know what I'm supposed to do, but, on the Fly, during a game in game situations, I really struggle with "what to do.
