To do half spins you have to rotate the control stick as if your doing a spin but stop in the middle before you do the spin, as for the rose move I can do it, but because of the camera angle, I'm not to sure what the correct input is to do the move, I think it's down then rotate up it's hard to describe.

The thing I've learned while playing the demo is, lockdown defenders will not bite for your size-ups as much as someone with a low on-ball defense rating. I was doing size ups waiting for Sefolosha to bit but he rarely did, when I had Harden on me it was really easy to get past him.

So when your facing a lock down defender you have to change your approach and use quick explosive moves to get past them. Or use their body and momentum against them, sometimes you'll have to settle for a jumpshot.

Also from the tips Beluba has given, us you must know how much space you need for each move(use the correct move is very important as well) and you still have to read the defenders to get past them. You may still go into a "ride" but it will be more of the defender trying to catch up with you.

Is it difficult to learn the new controls and is it easier to drive to the lane and dunk/layup as it was a bia bia in 2k12 as I couldn't drive with KD or LeBron.

And why no free throw meter? It seemed impossible to make FT's in 2k12.

With the change to absolute the controls are butter to me. Off the dribble. I love being able to have the left stick function as a "quick" hitter when I just want to do a one dribble pull back or cross. Now for the post...

Ok for the half spins I figured it out. Do the half spin like you would a regular spin move, then instead of doing the reverse circle, just send the RS straight over to the ball hand. This works much better for me imo. It's actually pretty easy now.

The difference with the one that they showed Rose doing is it's a size up move, so you can't press the LS while doing it.
