You've obviously made a light bulb go off for me. So I was mixing the post up exit move I was showing before. Into the the hop fade shot. Some very nice results I must say.

Now that I can get behind.

The herky jerky fade jumper I sent from Dame_301. The animation drives me crazy trying to time the release (it's a double press). That's probably why I won't do it in a game.

Yes, exactly why I've stopped doing certain ones. To be fair, there was another version of this in old games I'm sure had to be a travel where you catch the ball in the post (don't use your dribble) and then do the hop step fade haha. I think there would be a gather dribble thrown in but it was silly the amount of space you could create basically doing a stepback hop step out to the 3-point line from the nail, not that it was an easy shot to time.

Sooooo I just want to say. It's still in the game. I took Larry Bird out for some practice.

That's insane amount of space created.

My dude watching Dune breakdowns and forgetting to switch his last copy and paste (could have been worse I suppose).

Regardless still an amazing breakdown


Also I got Bird giving Worthy lessons

Been working on little post moves to get to the rim. They are so tiny.
This is me using the switch hands to eat space or get an angle on the defender. By attacking the front foot. I know it's so hard to see.

This is a switch hand and attacking that front shoulder/foot (2K did an amazing job here. That's how it works in real life)

This is me using the same thing to get closer to the rim without using too much back down or drop stepping

If you check out the shading meter/system of a defender. You notice all these little things. Also happen down low in the post. Kevin did a great video about it last year.

Yeah this is legal though, the old one was shenanigans of traveling.

So I think I've just figured out a new control. I want to thank Chase for bring up the hop shot up the other day without him. I would not have discovered this. Or maybe I completely missed the memo that the right stick controls all post moves now? I remember in years past. You could do the drop step with the right stick. I just figured out you can do every move from the right stick.

Can you notice here?

The differences are so subtle. Especially the fakes. I spent some time practicing and that was the first game (above). On that hop shot with Duncan. You'll notice a tiny little fake before I hop. The problem I've always had was hop shot was using the buttons. It's why I only drop step when I'm desperate. But now.....
