Awesome video but can we get a video on shooting ? I’m having trouble making threes and mid range twos on Hall of Fame, trying to remember the releases when playing with a team, also, I feel like I’m not getting proper separation and even when I’m open I’m missing as well, but I can get to the rim without a problem but I don’t wanna play like that and continue to do the same cheese.

I'll look into this man! This is something I'm continuing to get better at, but I think I'm at a point where I can make a video on this! This is a big project so it'll likely take some time! My advice, is to know what to look for in different players, and key in on them! Some players, you actually got to look at the elbow, others you got to look at where the ball is on their head, and others you got to look for their feet (as they gather) and when their knees are fully unbent on their jumper! I'll try to do something on this!

In reality specially the casual players will mess up their minds if they keep looking at the shaders. This 2K devs are crazy enough to put it up just to show where to engage but believe me it's is only an illusion. Why? Users who played since Live 95 knows how to beat HOF ai by just looking the body of the defender since this series. My point is not to focus on the green shading but instead master your own size-up hesi escape or any thriple threat cross escape. From there you can easily beat real players (users) in any given matches. This is where Kevins video of LaVines shine, you should make a video of it again because that is the main sauce bro.
@KevinCruz016 Жыл бұрын
I don't advocate looking at the defensive shading indicator, but I put some time into discussing it so that they know how the system works. I don't look at that because the defensive stance and the direction of movement can communicate that for the most part.

Can you explain the defensive shading part again? You said there is bars underneath the defender?.. is that on Next Gen and Current Gen?
@KevinCruz016 Жыл бұрын
The three zones underneath the player icon (the circle) will tell you which direction you can attack. There's a left zone (9-11 o clock), middle zone (11 - 1 o clock), and right zone (1 -3 o clock). Depending on how your defender is guarding you, one of those 3 zones will be red, this means you cannot attack this zone. So for example, in my video, I purposefully attacked a red zone, and it resulted in a bump animation. I don't recommend looking at the red zones within the shading system, but it should give you an indication of how to attack your defender based on their movement and defensive stance. The goal is to shift your defender's body and momentum around, so that the zone you want to attack turns from a 'red' zone to a 'green' zone.

Make a video of the Lavines thriple threat cross escape bro, that is the best way to beat the hof ai and ellite users. That is the best move in 2K23 that should be exposed. Because of that video I manage to create my combo similar with your masterpiece LaVine. Michael Jordan - Style Steve Francis - Sizeup Kevin Durant - Escape Russel Westbrook - Moving Damian Lillard - Behind Basic - Stepback LaVine - Hesi Basic - Spin Kobe - Thriple To do the complete Thriple Threat Cross Escape of Lavine it needed Lavines whole package that can't be done in My Career is very painful. And that above sets are near to Lavines natural dribble que moves.
