Oh my god. I cannot put into words how great this video is. Almost every video on youtube talks about cheese moves, but no one actually explains how to play against the cpu on basketball fundamentals. I've been looking for a video like this since nba 2k16, and you did it the best. thanks so much! The only problem I have is I don't exactly know how to launch as quick as you do, like in the first example, when you crossover to the right, you go so fast, you you do that crossover with the right button pressed? or you just tap it? you have to keep the analog to the direction you wanna go or you just tap the analog? is there a video on your channel teaching these fundamentals? Thanks so much for this video.
Appreciate the kind words my guy! And I appreciate your mentality! Most of the community really looking for the easy way out with OP animations, so I thought I had to get something in there in terms of using basketball fundamentals to set up how we play the game! In terms of launching out of animations, my first tip is to know when to launch by getting familiar with different launch windows out of RS moves. On your question on controls, I hold the left stick diagonally up-left or up-right towards the direction where I want to launch, and hold R2 simultaneously as I launching using the left stick. So say you want to launch out of a right stick crossover (tap Right Stick left to non-ball hand), I wait for the right launch window in the animation, then hold turbo and hold the Left stick up-and to the right to launch into my crossover launch move. Keep the left stick held up-right to continue your fast burst out of the crossover. You'll need to work on your launch timing really well, and really get familiar with your different sizeup animations. I hope this helps, and if you need more advice, just let me know!
@@KevinCruz016 Thanks, I didn't realized that to launch you gotta go diagonally up-left/right, I always tried all to the right or to the left. Thank you!
Keep up this type of stuff man! It's so annoying watching RUclipsrs play and they always do the same glitchy Curry slide cheese to get wide-open 3s online! You're actually doing real basketball moves and trying to make the game as Sim as possible. So much respect for you putting out quality content like this and the other videos you do. Keep it up!
That's the plan bro!!! We're going to keep convincing people that you don't need to play some glitchy video game stuff to have success in the game. I appreciate you man, and I'm glad you like it!
i really appreciate this video. it all makes alot more sense now and feels like i'm plugging pieces of a puzzle after watching this and knowing what to look for in defender reactions, i always felt like i was spamming moves hoping for a fakeout/freeze animation. real basketball content
Man, I appreciate this comment so much because that's my overall goal. First is to really help open things up for the community, and second is to make sure we stick to the spirit of playing basketball even though this is a video game. Appreciate you bro!!
Appreciate you Travis, I'm glad this video was useful to you! Absolutely man, I'm a huge lab advocate! It's an opportunity to set yourself apart from everyone else!
What do you mean by the lab? Is there somewhere other than mycourt on the ship i can run around and practice my dribbling and such? Or is it a next gen thing only?
bro I don't like online that much I usually play with friends and when I am by myself I just play with the CPU on HoF. I love it cheers form Puerto Rico.
I got to admit that between this and work, I don't get to play much online as I've focused on really letting the channel grow. But it's always good to play with like minded individuals who like to play the game in the purest way possible!
Hall of fame is definitely meant to test your patience. I don’t recommend it because of the CPU’s ability to cheat the system, forcing you to play a certain type of way to hunt cpu patterns. But, a lot of people like to play at HOF so I’ll gladly do what I can to help!
Glad you found it useful! I should have probably done a video on this after my basic tutorials were done, as this caps everything off and ties everything together. But, better late than never! And it was something a lot of people asked about!
I appreciate this and I’m looking to take this approach in 2K23. The game wasn’t fun for me anymore because I struggled to do this. How often should I lab working on dribble moves?
Appreciate the kind words Trevor! I wouldnt spend too much time getting the advanced dribble moves down, but I would work on combining set-ups from the triple threat to knowing which moves to combo with while on the move. I’d say just spend the 3 hours it takes to learn the basics of triple threat and dribbling. While developing combos. And use in game situations to really map out your play style and develop combos!
Just during the initial launch move and blowby and the drive to the basket. I don't rely on turbo too much because of how stamina can get drained easily, I like to strategically use it at the right time when they're out of position. You can check the stamina bar, you'll rarely see it depleted or get really low. The defense sticking like magnets is just how it is on next gen, especially on HOF I think!
@@jcity943 I remember from the comments you were the first one to really clue me in that a lot of people were asking for this type of video! It took a while, but it got me to a spot where I got better in breaking down the AI defense. Always appreciate you Jcity! That's what we're after man, quality hoops from Sim Nation!
I have a hard battle against stepback movements in 2k22. The player stops, does a change of feet and doesn't and keeps on the same place of the court. :( I don't know if the sensibility to pull R3 back is incriased than 2k21 or If I am doing something wrong. :(
@@KevinCruz016 the right. I learn to do this move watching this video ruclips.net/video/QzbaxiZmWcQ/видео.html (6:05 until 06:20) I know that this movements works on 2k22 'cause sometimes I do correctly, but is something stranger for me to be easier on 2k21. :( Thanks for your time, Kevin. I'm happy and surprised to be answered :)
i did it perfect and he came from behind and stole the ball mid dunk. i’m down 0-26 with 20 steals. only good thing i got is defense. i’ve gotten stolen every possession.

This much appreciated 🔥🔥🔥. I’ve learned to let animations play out you get even better. THE LAB is where you become great
Appreciate you Travis, I'm glad this video was useful to you! Absolutely man, I'm a huge lab advocate! It's an opportunity to set yourself apart from everyone else!
I think a “choosing the right shot” video would be good too. Or just include lil clips in the videos you making. Really appreciate all your hard work.
What do you mean by the lab? Is there somewhere other than mycourt on the ship i can run around and practice my dribbling and such? Or is it a next gen thing only?
@@kw1397 the “lab” is mycourt in my career or 2ku in regular game mode.
bro I don't like online that much I usually play with friends and when I am by myself I just play with the CPU on HoF. I love it cheers form Puerto Rico.
Appreciate you bro, cheers from the Philippines! Keep hooping!!
The video and content everybody who plays this game needs and deep down inside is looking for 💯 keep going
Appreciate you Aj! Will definitely keep on working so that we all get better!

That's what we do!! Appreciate #SimNation always!
Man I would love to play with you……no cheese Animations just real basketball iq being tested

How I know when I have my boost
PAUSE
Staying true to the game! 💯💯💯
Yes sir! The only way I know how to play!
Learned.... Awesome and Informative keep it up, got frustrated in HoF before and tried this broooo.....

Have a blessed day to my brother!
Nice video like always. Can you make a video on how to attack the pick and roll?
That's actually a good idea, are you thinking offline or online?
@@KevinCruz016 I play both, but people probably want online
@@KevinCruz016 offline would be sick
@@Whatsgoodty I got you, I have not gone online much because of some time constraints but this would be good to at least get some clips in!
@@brunogamer777 Got you on this bro!
Ur blowing up soon
Appreciate the compliment! Just trying to share what I know, and I'm glad the community finds value in this type of content!
Nice content. Now, I don't have to rely on pick n roll 100% of the time to beat the defender
Hope you keep subbed man! We'll definitely do an update for this video once 2K23 rolls along! Thank you bro!
Thank you! This is really helpful !
Glad you found it useful! I should have probably done a video on this after my basic tutorials were done, as this caps everything off and ties everything together. But, better late than never! And it was something a lot of people asked about!

Man I be missing the easiest shots on hof it be pissing me off 😂😂😂😂 like how I be missing an easy basket right underneath the rim!
Not even gonna lie man, the AI cheats in HOF sometimes to the point that it can be unfair lol.
@@KevinCruz016 man hell yeah
Extremely helpful now I just need to know what buttons to press to get the animations I want
Thank you! Don't worry, I've got a little upgrade for the channel that will help with these things in the future! Stay tuned bro!
@@KevinCruz016 definitely will bro!
We need a video on just stepbacks. When you should use them. The escape dribbles work best with spin jumpers. You can get a green release everytime.
Are you referring to step-backs using dribble moves or step-back jumpers?
@@KevinCruz016 Stepback Shots
Good video my guy
Thank you my bro! Hope you picked something up from this!
#goat i just won my first game !!
LETS GO JOSE!!
you made the game look so real
Appreciate you Jason! The stuff from 2K23 is even better!!
When are you using turbo? I feel like if you overuse turbo, the CPU be sticking to you like magnets.
Just during the initial launch move and blowby and the drive to the basket. I don't rely on turbo too much because of how stamina can get drained easily, I like to strategically use it at the right time when they're out of position. You can check the stamina bar, you'll rarely see it depleted or get really low.
The defense sticking like magnets is just how it is on next gen, especially on HOF I think!
Great video
Appreciate you bro!
Hall of fame to? Ang galing!
Yessir bro!! Kahit sa 2K23, i use it to learn tendencies ng AI! just have to look for certain patterns sa responses nila to some key moves!
@@KevinCruz016 paturo pag post moves haha

Appreciate you always my bro! 🙌

@@KevinCruz016 u the man bro..you inspiring me to do some vids of my own..keep working..its gonna pay off for sure
I wish it was tough to score on CPU’s in mycareer. I understand if it’s easy in park and rec but mycareer is just to easy and makes it boring
GOD bless❤️
Appreciate you my bro, and hope you have a good day! 🙏

I don't know if the sensibility to pull R3 back is incriased than 2k21 or If I am doing something wrong. :(
Do you use the left stick or right stick to do step backs? Thats definitely odd, since you should move backwards even a little bit
@@KevinCruz016 the right.

how much ball handling and speed do i need to do this? i keep failing in mycourt
Sorry man, I'm not a MyCareer guy so it's tough for me to say...
@@KevinCruz016 thanks for the reply, i guess my character's not good enough. Cheers from your SEA neighbor 🇮🇩
i did it perfect and he came from behind and stole the ball mid dunk. i’m down 0-26 with 20 steals. only good thing i got is defense. i’ve gotten stolen every possession.
This how I wish more people would play instead of doing tht lame cheesy dribble god sht.
You and me both bro, too much of the community dribble and play like cracked out cheeseheads.
what do i do when they don’t react to jabs or anything
I thought I was the only one haha, I guess we just suck 😭
Literally can beat the shit out t he cpu with pick and roll. But can’t score more then 20 points. I can get 36 assists though
Pinoy?
Oo broski!! Born and raised!!
This is realky confusing
Cheat code !!! Thank you 🙏🏾
You're welcome!! I plan on doing more in depth videos like this for 2K23! Stay tuned, and thank you for dropping by!
