Man it blows my mind the amount of work they put in that is just never touched by probably 90% of the player base. I’ve been playing 2K since childhood and man it’s so awesome to see the amount of moves that can happen that isn’t about making a player look glitchy
That escape jumper is nasty. I also love doing the step back out of the moving crossover. Works well against human opponents in rec quite often. I need to get better at cancelling certain animations and doing the left/right hops out of the size up escape more often. I think I've trained myself to time my combos too late because I usually want to finish them.
Such a great mind! Definitely the urban Picasso of the 20th century when it comes to 2K. Great knowledge and great communicator for the community. Keep up the great work. Greatly appreciate the hours/dedication made!!!!
EVERYTHING works in the REC btw the court is not too small just read your defender. Learn the diff hop jumpers and don’t be afraid to shoot them. Best space creating shots
i second this. everything works yes you just need to choose correctly. also dont be afraid to fade as well bc its a faster release and you dont always have time to do a hop jumper.
Also Taytum has an exclusive animation. If you do a mid step over from triple threat (northwest on right stick) then Straight into a shot he does a fade. Creates so much space
My guy go check out the Donovan Mitchell video, is that what you mean? Donovan Mitchell got something similar, except he goes spin fade with it! Appreciate you sharing the sauce Joshua!
💎💎💎My fav was the misdirection off tripple threat. The switchback one i actually discovered by mistake a few weeks ago haha, you can do it stationary(without left stick). coming to a stop in the transition and doing a tween cross to continue for example.
Thank you for your content, I was about to call it quits because there is nothing to help me learn in 2k, could you explain in your next video how to beat the difficulties cause I'm stuck on the All-Star difficulty. Thanks for the video.
I think if you called left/right stick different names it would make it a lot easier to follow. Move left stick down right and right stick up left after double tapping right stick left two times got my brain all twisted up
Have to admit I struggled with how I could communicate this the best way possible, so really appreciate the feedback and will try to do an additional video on the triple threat launch moves with more detailed inputs!
Hey man I’ve always wondered how do I get into this place and practice? Like where it’s just you and two ball boys? I see this all the time in dribbling videos but I have no clue how to get there 🤣
Hey Jordan, go to Play Now, and then Go to "2KU" and then go to "Freestyle". You should be able to practice in the gym! There are also options to practice plays, and scrimmage (without shot clock) so you can practice your 5 on 5 game!
Appreciate you bro!! No, not for the triple threat escape jumpers, I've seen only space creator activate! But I didn't really try from a low post position yet since you enter into post hop jumper territory!
Devin Booker ball side jab step (tap up right on the RS if youre rt handed) into the explosive behind the back chains into Zach Lavines Stepback hop jumper (down on the RS) Also for the ppl who like "glitchy" shit DBooks step over in the triple threat (flick down left on the RS) can be shot out of like a normal jumper. when your MPs back is facing away from the basket time your jumper by the RS. your MP does a 180 spin and releases his jumper like a normal catch and shoot. incredibly easy to time if u can get it right
If anybody is having any hardship with the escape jumper. The key is to flick the stick twice very quickly. Not necessarily chaining the step over and double flick quickly but actually flicking the stick twice quickly. Hope that helps anybody
I really need to get better I have never been terrible in 2k like this man, I guess it’s because I’m just playin online regular games and not playing my player n career type games in the whole entire game .. I’m good at dribbling n running plays but I do not hit open 3s I can’t even just walk down n make the shot n it’s literally a green smh .. you ar an amazing helper bro, I’m trash right now , I will keep u posted on the results fam💯💪🏿
I hope one day, we all move back to a place where 2K online is as free flowing and has more skill moves as opposed to the current meta right now. But we're all doing our part by playing the way the game was meant to be played!
Appreciate these moves brother but I won't have no time to do all this while in the Rec because them nuggets just swamp you like bees and playing with random go figure.
Every now and then some of these can be used in specific situations!! Just great to have in your bag just in case the situation calls for it, but definitely not something I plan on doing regularly!
Can someone please guide me to the icon definitions? I know simple things like the Gatorade icon, the fire icon, the dunk icon etc. What are some of the other icons? Like the one that looks like the letter G with fire around it that like the entire team will have
Those are the takeover icons for each player, they get activated if you do good things with the player, which will activate attribute boosts and at times new animations! I can't really find the icon definitions right now, but I'm sure there's some guide online!
@Kevin Cruz thanks man; I appreciate you responding AND I love this video! I'm newer to the 2k series so I'll save this video and keep watching to learn. Yea man I found one site online that had lots of the icon meanings(even the cold mean) but still couldn't find some of em. If u happen to see them, let me know lol. Thanks again and luv this video!
These moves are tougher to execute against online for sure, some of it is the difficulty in inputs, some of it is that people don't play specific ways that allow for these to be taken advantage of, but all of these moves I've got to work at some point online. I won't go to it every time, but every now and then you bring out the bag and it's fun to try new stuff out!
Try walking them down slowly once they get you in that "ride" or clamp animation. Sometimes it's the angle of your movement that prevents the move from happening!
We understand why all your opponents are the IA !!!! You really think those things gonna work againt a 3&D with 99 ovr and 30 defenses badges try it at Stage then let us know
Bro I can only dribble w bigger builds😅 I silica w the little dudes I be gett🎉hdld but I also dribble how I do real life n 2k don’t respect that unless I’m on my taller guard. Why no clue. My little guard has 94 dribble. Big has 89 and it some reason just better
Not gon lie just watched your videos today and you’ve changed my perspective of the game. The game definitely cheats you with gameplay and slider adjustments mid game. But this. This is gold. Actually using attacks and moves to make the game good. Good shit bro 🔥🏌🏾
@@KevinCruz016 been good my man, mastering that Booker S.B sauce... Now I gotta make room and add some of this in my bag! Preciate all you do for the community 💯

100% agree. they have so much diversity and yet ppl still doing the same spin back since 4 years ago
Probably 1% of players actually know/use this stuff
Facts!

Court needs to be bigger . The amount of out off bounds is crazy
YESSIR!! There isn't anything you can do offline that you can't do online!
For sure. I've learned the timing while practicing a lot in the pro am arena, but I still rarely use them in rec/pro am games. I need to though.
@@_dboy_ check out my lastest video. It’s a short of my KD build. I do alot of these in the rec lol it’s all about confidence

That clamp breaker tip is clutch....I just been working on creating contact then taking the close/midrange shot
This is a really great counter to smother and tight defenses!!
This is incredible content, you taught me a lot today. You’re my go-to guy whenever I need to sharpen my game, appreciate you!
Appreciate you man, and I'm glad I get to share a little bit of stuff that not everybody may know! More information out there is always a W!
You are the best 2K player I’ve seen on here, and you get straight to the point each time. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you bro!!

Appreciate you bro! Good looking out! But for the triple threat, you still need to tap the LS up-left, otherwise you do a jab step/step-over combo!
Bro , what build are you using in mycareer cause your bag with all these nba players is crazy 🔥🔥🔥
I'm still just about to do a MyCareer series, since I'm pretty much done with MyTEAM!
Wow , the first push off move explains why the shooting gbadge gaurd up is in the game . But park gameplay isn't like this
Definitely one of the best situations I can see it being activated!
Finally a regular 2k video about how to use skills and not the same ol “my player build” videos
Thank you bro!! I try to keep things different here!!

Hey man, I got just the video for you! ruclips.net/video/UOeGqIaB_-U/видео.html
@@KevinCruz016
Thank you so much for the video, I'm going to try to apply it to my gameplay
What settings do you use for the stick orientation sir?
Just the default bro! On absolute ata
Any tips on when to release in a certain situation?
Like catch and shoot have a different timing even though it's uncontested
I think if you called left/right stick different names it would make it a lot easier to follow. Move left stick down right and right stick up left after double tapping right stick left two times got my brain all twisted up
Have to admit I struggled with how I could communicate this the best way possible, so really appreciate the feedback and will try to do an additional video on the triple threat launch moves with more detailed inputs!
I just watched at a slower speed
Call left stick. Stick 1
And right stick. Stick 2
😂

What stick do I flick? Because I prefer to shoot with square. So do I flick with the left stick or right?
Every video you drop I take the info and use it in the rec 🔥🔥
Appreciate you Jodie!!
The euro step and step back jumper is game changing
YESSIR! Two of my favorite techniques in the game!
I just started getting into your videos bro you definitely got a crazy bag with the moves lol 🔥
Thank you bro!!! Got a bunch more dropping over the next few days!!
@@KevinCruz016 im tuned in bro & i gotta get you in one of my 2k tournaments in philly. if you willing to take a flight it will be free for you
Are these secret moves only available on Next Gen? I hope not, I wish Current Gen have this secrets moves too.
OMG THANK YOU. I’ve been refreshing every morning waiting for the next vid
Appreciate you LAM!!!
I might have to switch my play style to this. I’ve been doing low post and mid fadeaways for years lol.

I can only do the stepover escape jumper combo when my left foot is my pivot foot, do you know why that may be the case?
Probably can only do it wit his dominant hand
@@scottperdue4895yeah kept trying and it seems like thats the case
I can do it with the other pivot foot, but maybe try tapping the RS down-left (instead of left) with your right pivot foot established!
The move at 5:06 is definitely the one I need to learn.
I have gold clamp breaker can I do the push off because it’s not working for me at the moment?
You should be able to, just try to do the walk forward animation and it should activate!
If my teammates be using these moves in pro-am we'd better be up by 20.
I hope one day, we all move back to a place where 2K online is as free flowing and has more skill moves as opposed to the current meta right now. But we're all doing our part by playing the way the game was meant to be played!
@@KevinCruz016 Ya definitely. Though 2K23 is already a much better balanced game comapred to the last 2-3 years.
Appreciate these moves brother but I won't have no time to do all this while in the Rec because them nuggets just swamp you like bees and playing with random go figure.
nice video 💯✅ almost impossible to remember 🤦🏾♂️😭
Every now and then some of these can be used in specific situations!! Just great to have in your bag just in case the situation calls for it, but definitely not something I plan on doing regularly!
My favorite move is right stick up then hold it down and it gives you the Harden step back
Can someone tell me if they took dribble handoffs off of 2k23? And if they didn’t how do I use it
Whats the camera angle broskie
Just standard 2K cam bro!

How to do up and under shot?
Initiate a pump fake, then hold the right stick in the direction you want to do an up and under! I got a video coming out later that might help!

Why 2k Hiding Moves Doe?
Best 2k vid this is how to play the game everybody just spamming swearing they gods
Game changing
My guy!!! Appreciate you bro!!
I cant get that push off animation with L2
A lot of these moves wouldn’t work against users that’s why no one uses them

Try walking them down slowly once they get you in that "ride" or clamp animation. Sometimes it's the angle of your movement that prevents the move from happening!
1:55 3:10 4:07
Great video
Thank you bro!
i got it all wrong, i grinded all night cs i thought id get an instant 90

How can I make a alley oop on ps 5 with 2k 3
Double tap Triangle, then you want to hold square at the part when the meter turns green!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate you bro!!
Cant get the escape jumper to work
It's a tough one for sure, but it's a timing thing, try changing up the speed in which you go from the stepover to double tapping the right stick!
@@KevinCruz016 what you mean to say on the double tap is to hold stick in place to get a shot ive tried with lavine size up and he doesnt escape lol
W vid bruv
