@oOYourdadOo - I feel like dribbling has been improving every year. So many different things you can do now but you just don't see many people utilize them
This is what 2k need to push in there marketing they didn't let us know anything about how to really find your own way. I just recently started realizing the right mix of triggers and stick actually does something a little different
It’s because all of this don’t work like that at the high level and alot of people don’t have time to find their own way they just tryna get on and play
@@MRDEVIOUSISO Imma be real it does work there's just levels of this style too and it takes more creativity and more brain power to do this at a high level vs the regular combos u see
Although I'm failing miserably thanks I always leave your content with knowledge. I can only watch so many teir lists and grown men crying about how a game is not fair or to expensive.
Holy shit i had no idea this was a thing and I've played 2k for 20 years plus. You've completely changed the value I get out of 2k with all your tutorials. Geniunely had No idea how much of a basketball sim 2k really was since all everyone online does is zig zag cheese animations, so I always thought that that's the limit of dribbling and how you're supposed to play 2k.
WOW. Legit might be the best dribble vid Ive ever seen. The fact that you break it down and make it easy to understand is incredible. Your channel has been consistently high tier content. Thank you.
I like how you said "dribble with purpose" 100% agreed on that aspect. Sometimes, less is more and if you don't need to do dribble moves to blow by your defender, then you don't have to but then again, this is a good thing to have in your bag. Makes you a better player overall. Thanks, Kevin! Awesome vid as always! Video idea, maybe make a video about how to make team plays like floppy and it gets more advanced and complicated and on how to execute them effectively.
Thank you man! On the video idea, I did have something planned on basics of five on five offense, just got lost in the shuffle as I went into some MyCareer stuff! But still coming!
Bro is a hidden gem in the 2K community and nobody talks about him enough. If you're a bucket in 2k, Kevin Cruz is most likely the reason why. I salute. 🙏🏽
Bro you are goated! You need to do 1v1 game play and cook everyone! That would be entertaining! We always talk about Kobe playing 1v1 or Kyrie 1v1 it would be every entertaining to watch you cook people all day! A highlight real!
Man thank you so much for these dribble videos a lot of ppl don’t like 2k25 because it’s different….left stick dribbling and rhythm shooting are very dangerous if you know how to use them
Hey Cruz, appreciate you always looking out for the community, dropping bangers! 🫡❤ How about doing something similar like this video, but for lower ball handles? Bronze lightning launch, 70 ball handle! Cook up!!!
Nobody tells me anything my man, sometimes its a product of educated guess work, sometimes its me being lucky lol. But I lock myself up in 2KU for at least an hour a week, and that’s where all this gets figured out lol
This makes dribbling so much easier it's not even funny! But I have a lot of other tutorials in the channel in the 2K25 Course list! Go check them out!
This has always been in the game ….. the only thing that is different is the speed boosting with the right stick …… they did this to make you pay attention to the Mechanics and animations this year
Please drop a combo list spreadsheet please! For example: how do you shamgod?? Please release a combo list like street fighter because 2k dribbling is basic like street fighter with the combos but 2k won’t tell you shit.
Fwiw, the best I have right now is my Ultimate dribble tutorial for 2K25, its got organized chapters for every move so consider it like an unofficial combo cheat sheet!
No, in fact I’d avoid over dribbling or extended combos! But be selective in what moves you use. I’d mix in triple threat and limit dribble combos to 1-2 combos then quick bursts and counters
More like 8-10 minutes 😂😂 especially if they don’t follow you But nah I still need the Booker Hop tutorial and possibly a big guard kill shot(go to shot per say) system You know I stay 🔒 in 😂😂
Bro pls explain why everything u can do with holding L2 u can do not holding anything and just moving the stick. Sorry not here to ruin ya vibe but it is what it is. Don’t hold L2 and move the stick, it does everything u can whole holding L2. Said the same thing twice incase some dummies don’t understand. 😂
Quite literally had no idea L2 even had an effect on dribbling. This has truly changed everything 😂 in my career like wtf HE TELLING THE TRUTH
2k really don’t tell us shit 😂💯
Same wtf 😂
We stop call it the post up button 3 cycles ago. It's the "modifer" button lol
@@jeebs9 I ain’t know shit lmao. I rarely watch vids for mechanics cause I thought I knew everything this is insane to be missing out on 😂
@@Primo3.5facts
Woah, I was completely unaware that holding L2 would make it easier to do those target combos. That's a game-changer for sure.
Same here. I haven't really played these games since 20. I thought i was becoming aware of a lot of new tech, but still so much has changed
@oOYourdadOo - I feel like dribbling has been improving every year. So many different things you can do now but you just don't see many people utilize them
Same.
I wish the community would gravitate towards this type of content and not all that ♻️ "best sigs"

Perfect example on how to make informative content that is not only useful but unique.
Much appreciated
Kev, appreciate your work and dedication. You've helped simplify dribbling for those of us who aren't as great with chaining combos.
This is why I do it! I want everyone who wants to get get good at this game to be as good as they want to be!
Watching Kevin makes me realize how trash I am at this game.
We’re all a work in progress my brother!

@@KevinCruz016 awesome! will definitely be on the lookout for that 👀
Kev the GOAT! I never knew about the target combo system! I’m about to practice this right now. Thank you bro!
You’re welcome man!
back to back bangers keep them coming i watch these all day and night
I appreciate that you teach- you’re not here to show us how much stick work you can do. No diddy.
I had to re-watch it to fully understand. So it's like the aggressive breakdown combos with LT instead of RT... Great content chef🐐
You are the fkn GOAT BRO. Most underrated youtuber for sure. Most would try to gate keep this
Your channel is the REAL Learn 2K. Thank you! I'm off to lab this goodness!
Bro you going crazy this year! I'm so proud of you my boy! 🎉🔥🔥🔥
Nothing but the finest when ChefCruz drops content 4sho!Thanks mannnn!
Bro is a hidden gem in the 2K community and nobody talks about him enough. If you're a bucket in 2k, Kevin Cruz is most likely the reason why. I salute. 🙏🏽
Been looking forward for your vidoes.
Thank you bro!
Maaan please don’t stop making this content it really helps
I literally just turned on 2k and was about to search for this on youtube, thanks kevin 👍
best irl playstyle content creator!!!
Bro you are goated! You need to do 1v1 game play and cook everyone! That would be entertaining! We always talk about Kobe playing 1v1 or Kyrie 1v1 it would be every entertaining to watch you cook people all day! A highlight real!
I’m going to make a build that can do this for sure!!
@ thank you Brodie! You the goat!
Thanksss bro! Wow i didnt know this awesome tip. I hope i will get better with the dribbling with these
Yeees sirr, you got 1 right here chef!! Bout to add to the recipe book n cook up! Remember folks, If it ain't Bato approved... find a new chef! 😤
This guy has completely changed the way I play 2k. Are the controls for the target combos in the game or did I completely look over it?
Naw put you on the 2k Mt. Rushmore for unlocking things we never knew😂🐐
Dawg you saved my life cuz i couldn’t understand how this dribble shit work
Man thank you so much for these dribble videos a lot of ppl don’t like 2k25 because it’s different….left stick dribbling and rhythm shooting are very dangerous if you know how to use them
I 100 percent agree!
My man! Love your content 😀
🐐. The greatest 2k RUclipsr of all time.
Always appreciate you bro!!
Bro u reppin Ph 2k community real goood🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏🔥
Kevin your the reason I don't have a negative record 😂
hi Kevin . TY i learned something new ( again XD) but i have a question . did you alredy try to do a prime James harden build ?
Not yet my man, I’m still trying to figure out what my big guard/wing build will be!
Hey Cruz, appreciate you always looking out for the community, dropping bangers! 🫡❤
How about doing something similar like this video, but for lower ball handles? Bronze lightning launch, 70 ball handle! Cook up!!!
Chef with the SAUCE as always!!!
Game changer! This made me actually able to move how I would like to.
Appreciate you for the knowledge my brother 💯❤️
Glad I could help bro!
Best sig vid by far
damn eventually L2 would get discovered. allen iverson kills with that
i wonder if you find stuff like that out by yourself or if people from 2k tell you because you're partnered. however, awesome info, thank you! 🎉
Nobody tells me anything my man, sometimes its a product of educated guess work, sometimes its me being lucky lol. But I lock myself up in 2KU for at least an hour a week, and that’s where all this gets figured out lol
Perfect timing wanna learn how to dribble but want to do more than put on "X sig, spam X move"
This makes dribbling so much easier it's not even funny! But I have a lot of other tutorials in the channel in the 2K25 Course list! Go check them out!
Are you gonna make a Luka build or a Luka break down like you did last year?
Big guards are definitely next on my list for builds and I’ll probably try my hand at a couple more player showcases but will see how those perform!
Very exciting news for the viewers. Thank you!
I’m so sweaty that go to sleep with playing in my ear buds 😂😂😂
Please continue making contents of 2k25!
Hi, Kev! Have you seen Ja Morant's dunk attempt turned to a 360 layup? Do you think it's possible to replicate this in 2K?
Way to go brother
When dribbling with right stick do you let go of left stick or keep holding it???
can you show us some combos for all pro moves equipped ???? for those grinding from the very bottom?
Thank you for sharing 🎉🎉
The goat
Real 2kballers grab a bowl of that sauce
This has always been in the game ….. the only thing that is different is the speed boosting with the right stick …… they did this to make you pay attention to the Mechanics and animations this year
Speed boosting with the right stick was in 2K24. It initiated your attacking crossover that is tied to your Escape Moves package just like this year
salamat tol, nice one. labyu!
Labyu lods!
Kevin the 🐐
W video, I had no clue this was in the game.
You’re welcome bro!
Shame the game doesn’t even tell you about the L2 dribbling 😩😩, thanks Cruz!
Lets get it kev!!
Yessir!!’
Please drop a combo list spreadsheet please!
For example: how do you shamgod??
Please release a combo list like street fighter because 2k dribbling is basic like street fighter with the combos but 2k won’t tell you shit.
Shamgod probably the easiest move in the game lol
Fwiw, the best I have right now is my Ultimate dribble tutorial for 2K25, its got organized chapters for every move so consider it like an unofficial combo cheat sheet!
@ ok and? Idk how to do it.
@@KevinCruz016 ok Imma check that out. Thanks!
Hate how much current gen is missing on these lessons
Bruuuhhhh I had no idea this was in the game. Kevin thank you for not gate keeping this
You’re welcome man, figured this was gonna help so many people!
new vid on lords day letsgooo
So this PLUS the strong handle animations is gonna be NASTY
Yessir man, when you put everything together, you can get some crazy combo stacks bro!
Would you remade your dbook build from last year this 2k?
Definitely, I’m working on one right now and its gonna be a little different than my build last year. But the core remains the same!
Need tall guard sigs
suggest change hands on or off?
Off, adds a layer on unpredictability that impacts execution
@@KevinCruz016 appreciate it!
Does this help when dribbling against a lock down 99 prem 99 steal foaming out the mouth for a steal?
No, in fact I’d avoid over dribbling or extended combos! But be selective in what moves you use. I’d mix in triple threat and limit dribble combos to 1-2 combos then quick bursts and counters
Would this work on jrue holiday with all his defensive badges?
@@ozarka1110 i just teach the moves, thats on you to use it broski.
But it does for me.
@ ok thanks . I play alot of play now online and struggle against jrue holiday cpu defense and they user offball. Gonna try this out
Is thia the same with xbox?
The title got my expectations high then i release i gotta use my thumbs lol
I swear man, this makes it so easy!! Give it a shot!
Realize*
Do you have anyyfor us 6’6 6’7 players
Without you I’d be lost
What’s you’re jumperV
Bro Halley Hoop for myself doesn't work anymore for me. The player only do a fake pass. Is it the same for you ?
I think self alleys are now circle + x, but I cant recall right now
@KevinCruz016 yeah circle + pass doesn't work anymore. Same for 2× triangle...
More like 8-10 minutes 😂😂 especially if they don’t follow you
But nah I still need the Booker Hop tutorial and possibly a big guard kill shot(go to shot per say) system
You know I stay 🔒 in 😂😂
Trying to master this
Hold up I didn't know L2 was part of dribbling lmfaooo
Bad that feature only applies on next gen players
First
Lets gooooooo!!
Bro pls explain why everything u can do with holding L2 u can do not holding anything and just moving the stick. Sorry not here to ruin ya vibe but it is what it is. Don’t hold L2 and move the stick, it does everything u can whole holding L2. Said the same thing twice incase some dummies don’t understand. 😂
Send me into the post? No one else?
@@Ian-q4g5w you have to do it outside of post up range, so above the free throw line area you should be good
@ idk keeps making me post up behind the 3 point like. Is it because I’m on myCourt?
Hey hey!!! 👋
Appreciate you bro!!
lol delete this please. We’ll never get anyone to pass the ball now 😂
I’m just dumb as shit i guess
***in nearly 9 minutes"
The sauce is within the first three minutes, its all you need.
The last 4-5 are extra details that help but are not essential
