Cheers for these videos, I’m learning to play the game and they are a big help!

[@m8ghty878]

Thank you Daryl !!

[@sol8823]

This guide is amazing

[@agrey832]

Preciate the upload bro!! Love your videos!! 🏆

[@KevinCruz016]

Thank you bro!!

[@Jimmy_The_Kid]

I always wondered what the gameplay and controls were for game like this. I’ve never played one but they look dope

[@jordanmanning14]

Dawg I been watching your all your tutorials since 2k23 I just don’t get this dribbling shit it feels clunky and unresponsive when trying to do these moves. Watching you do it , makes the players feel fluid and alive then I go try he’s moving telegraphic and sluggish

[@macapsu]

Thanks mate!

[@KevinCruz016]

Thank you bro!!

[@curlehcap4767]

Great tips thanks

[@KevinCruz016]

Thanks for watching!!

[@alextan7130]

What layup package are you using in the rec footage? Great video as always, any tips on how to shoot floaters correctly, I get the controls but I always feel like I get pulled in during the floater and float from too close to the basket. Should I start the floater earlier? or let go of the left stick?

[@KevinCruz016]

Devin Booker bro! Imo the best right now!

[@7truelife]

Golden tips, much needed info yo. Nuff respect!

[@nakainiles]

What are your camera settings?

[@WayneHaworth]

Huh this is so deep. I didn’t realise it had these mechanics. Never played these games before.

[@KevinCruz016]

it can get overwhelming man! It can go as deep as you want to, but I show throughout some of my gameplays, that basic moves is all you need to be successful! Don't let it overwhelm you and just go at it at your own pace!

[@lishad9192]

Daryl we still need answers, bro!!!!!😂😂😂😂

[@yt_clazify]

Lmao

[@cbruffin]

💀💀💀

[@KevinCruz016]

Darryl never got back to me lmao

[@WestphillyZay]

What more does Daryl want him to do? He’s provided tips for beginners, he shows us how to break down defenses. Daryl!

[@DazRFBM]

@@KevinCruz016being a fan of yours also called Darryl made that a special video for me 😂 I don’t think I’ve cried that much in years😅

[@drunkenyeknom]

9:13 Midrange has to effect floaters right?? Cuz I have 2 builds 1. with 85 lay 0 mid and 2. With 80 lay and 80 mid and the second build it’s way easier to time the floaters

[@BruceHachikoMingay23]

Present Bro. Kudos for the green and red lights things. I just learned it from you. I have not heard about it from LA Lakerfan and other KZbinrs. Thanks again, Bro. By the way, could you include in your future video when is the right time to use the steal or x button and the right stick ripper? Kc I just use the right stick all the time. I am wondering if there is an effective situation to use each one of them. Lagi ko kasi napapanood na RSR lagi. Mas effective daw. I am looking forward to your next videos Bro. And of course sana makalaro kita on the REc. Keep it up.

[@s178r3]

man this game is too difficult but i love basketball

[@jtzreal5944]

Play my career to get used to all the controls. Get used to the movement, timings, and everything else against the computer.

[@PastaBlaster]

are shading indicators on PC? can't find them anywhere in settings

[@super_puff1838]

Awesome, 🎉that’s what I need as it’s free for me to download. Let’s go KC!

[@cdotvell]

Yo KC……what visual cue do you use with KBTE jumper?

[@KevinCruz016]

Push man!

[@cdotvell]

@@KevinCruz016 …thanks…keep grinding.

[@AtomsVR]

I’m on Xbox and my controller settings menu looks different. Is it because I’m on Xbox? It looks like it has less settings and when I go to settings videos they have settings that I don’t.

[@LogicallyKnot]

Do you know what the odds are for the 100 cards in MyTeam? I've never seen it be this hard to pull a top card. I took last year off and I just started back playing recently, so I'm a little out of touch, but the pack odds seem extremely BS. I buy nothing but the high odds packs. Over the last 3 sets I've only pulled one 100 card and it was Dirk. I've spent about 2 grand and I've pulled 1 100 card. Think I might be done buying packs. I don't mind it if I'm getting the cards I want, but this is ridiculous. Spent 1100 trying to get MJ alone. No way should I not have that card unless he just dont exist in the packs. On the new set i have everything but the 2 99s and TMac. Completely absurd.

[@suptayykayy]

The scoop layup my favorite layup but sometimes I trigger a euro instead.

[@almighty2542]

Bro please do tips on player movement with the left analog trigger x, like how to move correctly with angles like rotating on defensive end or showing using left trigger to drive to the paint etc

[@michaeljordanballesteros3640]

Will this free NBA2k24 via PS plus get uninstalled after a month?

[@Old4thizit]

How to do kd fade

[@threal461]

Full game?

[@hassanzahr2444]

Should i do all of the 135gb update to get all of this

[@KevinCruz016]

A big chunk of the game and different game modes are only available if you update unfortunately 😔

[@smolzfiles]

Excellent video for ALL 2K players 🫡

[@KevinCruz016]

Appreciate you my guy smolz!!!!!

[@banks33]

how is this for beginners? mans speaking a whole other language. i regret giving this game a try. its took at least 10 years of my life with stress.

[@KevinCruz016]

Its okay if the game isn’t for you man, its okay to take things slow. But if you’re stressed at this stage, then yeah, maybe its best to walk away

[@braydepoulter1537]

Brother it’s hard to understand your accent, put this together with being new to the game and not knowing the saying and you have a video that sounds like dripple

[@TheRealMrLavergne]

I understand him perfectly. I can understand that he has an accent but it is not hard to hear him at all

[@Bmlives]

Brother... as a person who has SUCKED at a 2k since ALLEN IVERSON was on the cover (wasn't very good at NBA Live either), I'll just tell you THIS... You aren't built for pro basketball. As much as you might "love" the game, and as cool as you think it looks, and how much fun you have when you play it... it's not your skill... it's your mental. You LACK the ability to outwit your opponents and to stay steps ahead of them. You don't understand what it takes to be GREAT at basketball. So no matter how much "skill" you develop, or how much time and effort you put into getting good at the game... it's not for you. Or better yet, you're just not THAT guy. Most people are average when it comes to basketball. That's why even the best guys at the gym won't be more than role players on a team. Scalabrine was right, the NBA is different animal. The worst NBA player still has more IQ and skill than the BEST street ballers. If you REALLY wanna get better, master the controls, then immulate real life. And I don't mean BS regular season highlights. I mean Playoff basketball. The regular season contains a bunch of trash play. The playoffs do NOT. Watch how the greats beat their defenders. I'll admit, 2k is a lot about patience. Take things slow and let your opponent tell you what they wanna do. If they play off ball, then Kevin's videos will work wonders. If it's 1v1 all Game, then you just have to read your opponent and be better than your opponent. Ever since they partnered with the NBA, they've made the game more and more like a Fighting game, where it's a battle of input v input, and you have to not only execute, but know WHEN to execute WHAT at all times.

[@agrey832]

Where's Darryl with his genius level critiques?! *DAAARRYL!!* 😅

[@KevinCruz016]

[@gotanykush420]

How come i dont see trigger effedt option on xbox series x

[@SoOctober]

because it’s about the ps5 adaptive triggers

[@soulreaperr03]

I dont have controller is it okay to play it on keyboard xdd

[@KevinCruz016]

Man, I'm sure you can make it work, but a controller is a must!

[@tylervanderlinde]

How do i get out of 2ku

[@KevinCruz016]

Start, then go to quit!

[@Brooklyn_Tzu]

If only 2ku was this thorough

[@beluga2342]

bro keeps calling the dunk meter overpowered like driving dunk isnt the most inefficient stat in the game... AND YOU CAN MISS GREENS/get knocked out of dunk animations super easily.

[@brokenheadsetgaming3497]

Bro this is 2k23 not 24.....I'm very confused

[@KevinCruz016]

This is all footage from 2K24 😅 you must be confused lol

[@brokenheadsetgaming3497]

@@KevinCruz016 ok I think whats happening is the game looks different on next generation consoles and I do not have one of those lol. Brain not working

[@user-el5xz9br4q]

Romans 10 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. have a blessed day. Si confiesas con tu boca al Señor Jesús, y crees en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo.

[@ubewan6071]

I swear real basketball is easier than this game

[@KevinCruz016]

It takes a while to get a grasp of all the mechanics, but investing in the basics can go a long way!
