2K16 MUST HAVES- PART 4

I shared my thoughts on post play control in part 1. I have since revised some controls that I wish to share. Let me know your thoughts.

It appears that in some respects to player control 2K is gong back to the days when isomotion required a wiggling of the control stick to create moves you could never duplicate. 2K should take a page from Madden on controls. Madden has enhanced controls without stripping away basic, yet vital moves. Meaning we have known how to do these moves since creation. 2K has got to give back some basic controls.

Y/triangle= (remain the same)rebound/block/activate back to basket

X/square, B/circle, A/X should all remain the same.

Bring back the total control of the jab step.
Press & hold LT/L2 while tapping or holding right analog = player w/ball while facing defender, jab steps right or left(tap) or holds jab posture for control positioning(hold)

I'm a button fan but whether or not you are button or analog user, sometimes we don't get EXACTLY the move we need. Controlling left and right hand shots is important.

LT+RT+Y(L2+R2+triangle)=Left hand layup/floater/hook
LT+RT+B(L2+R2+circle)=right hand layup/floater/hook
When attacking the basket freethrow line & below, towards or thru painted area, as well as the baseline.

Now the post game in the NBA is fading fast but 2K players should still be able to use it as a staple of their offense. For years the post game in 2K has been made more and more ineffective. All post moves have been slowed down, which allows "the vultures," as Isaiah Thomas would say, to steal the ball. So first 2K has to give the post game the adequate speed boost in the post. Next add these moves:

Post Engaged w/ back to defender/basket
LT+Y(L2+triangle)= Left hook, LT+B(L2+circle)= Right hook, LT+X(L2+square)= basket facing hook leaner/floater (what Duncan does for a clearer visualization of this move)

Power Post Engaged
LT+RT+X+Y/B(L2+R2+square+triangle/circle)= Power Dribble thru player to approppriate hand or hands for dunk *move not available to all players. POWER POST players ONLY. Shaq, Wilt, Barkley, Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, Melo, Cousins, etc*
-In this move LT+RT activates power, X controls the dunk attempt with 2hands, Y/B makes it a 1handed right or left hand attempt. Similar in next move.

LT+RT+B+Y/B(L2+R2+circle+triangle/circle)= Drop step *double tap B/circle quick post spin(or the handy analog swivel)

X/square= shoots from post up

Y/triangle= back to basket disengage

A/X= pass from post

B/circle= Hop or gather
