so, is icon lead passing not in the game anymore? seems like they started to phase it out in 2k12 and now it seems almost non-existent.

I can still do it. They just don't run at full speed

And in transition where I like to hit with quick crosses left and right I'm getting these hesitation animations instead. Gotta keep at it till I get it I guess...

Having the same problem with the pauses between moves. Ive always played on camera relative but i cant get it down this year for some reason. I guess my timing is off or something

Mike or anyone for that matter, is it possible to in-and-out stationary without hesitating first? And has anyone been able to successfully pull off the half-spin jumper every time? I'm following the directions but most times I end up with either a pull-up or just a regular spin.

For the standing in and out, RS toward off hand to start a cross then immediately move the left stick toward the ball hand before the ball leaves his hand. The moving in and out is done the same way. Basically, think of it as moving in the opposite direction of your crossover.

So glad that Face-up Drive animation is back. Excited to perform it with Dwight!

And also, Step back shots from post up are more fluid than ever.

To bad he is with the Lakers now. Trust me. You will fall in love with Dwight especially with post controls being a lil bit easier. I have always been a big time Magic fan, but the reason Dwight became my favorite player in the NBA was because of 2k. Back during 2k11, when the post controls were over hauled, Dwight became unstoppable.

This is from my post in the impressions thread about the face up drive animation.

I found my go to move. In the post while holding the ball move LS toward basket + Y for faceup drive, Hold R2 + double tap O for spin dunk. I tried and tried to do this all last year but it was nearly impossible due to the fact that after spinning in the post, you had to rotate the stick to spin. The controls was just to clustered to do this. Also with the faceup drive, it makes it look so beautiful. Its the move players like Dwight, and Amare always do where they faceup out of the post, jab step one way, spin another way, then finish with a dunk. Unstoppable with the right player. This is what im talking about, except Dwight does not take a jab step after facing up in this vid. Hmmmmm.....I smell cheese from Dwight...
