NBA 2K13: Top Five New Controls

Why is everyone so amazed by the flop button. They had it in 2k12. All you had to do was press the take charge button, the flick the right stick away towards your back. It has me perplexed that people never knew that

This is correct. I remember doing a flop with Kendrick Perkins in 2k12

I flopped all game long last year, its just easier to do it this year

I found it very easy to Hop-Step in 2K12. All you had to do was push the Right stick the right direction as you were driving to the hoop. As long as you let go of the Right stick before your player landed he would stop, allowing some pretty effective fakes.

I was very glad they brought back the hop-step button. One thing I do miss is the signature gathers that were in 2K11. Anyone know why they never expanded on that and just removed it all together?

Manual bounce passing is very clutch and while the old alley-oop controls weren't hard, I like the change to the shoot+pass combo this year.

I really appreciate the addition of the forward momentum shots being a new feature. You can also set yourself up to run a grab the rebound off the shot. I also appreciate that they've updated players shots like Carmelo Anthony and the likes. They've even tweeked shooting so that at the buzzer you have a better ability to get your shot off with multiple types of new animations.

Yea, this is the most fun I've had with 2K basketball since Dreamcast.

im not a fan of the new alleyoop config, but i think its more subjective to how i play. I sometimes pull up for a shot just to see at that exact moment a wide open guy under the rim or a cutter, or i realize im way to well defended for the shot to work. So i pass out of the shot, but i tend to hold X as i press the pass button. IN my rookie showcase game i ended up throwing the ball away twice because instead of throwing a simple pass, i hurled a bullet that anthony davis wasnt read for....it happened twice....it bummed me out
