NBA 2K11 Video: Strategy Session Volume 3: Passing

I can't wait to watch this!

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.

yea great point 23. if you really focus on what your doing and realize that players need to come to the ball and catch and thus create space for oppertunities everyone will be fine.
