This is why I converted solely to the shot button early on, it's not so bad once you get used to it.

I need to run back through the training camp. I have a hard time chaining moves together.

^^That's what I did.^^ I think doing the drills vs another player (CPU) really helped out in the long run.

Anyone know what's the most effective dribbling combo for an ankle breaker?

I found that the combo of between the legs-> to left to right crossover (or vice versa) seems to break defenders off consistently.

I'll explain it this way: while on the run with a defender ahead of you, work the control stick in this fashion as if you we're looking at the face of a clock. So for this move it would be ( w/ ball in right hand) 7 o'clock then "flick" the stick to 3 o'clock. Hope that helps.

Things that drops the CPU the most from my experience is Hesitation into behind the back. Any move into a behind the back would do though.

Speaking of dropping players, I have NEVER been dropped by another human player. Nor have I EVER dropped anybody. The falling animation from my experience, and that's quite a few online games now, doesn't happen in pvp.

In other words, Tim hardaway's crossover remains king lol... I found that looking at videos of ai, hardaway, and rose/Williams highlights give me combos that plant the CPU on their a$$ a lot
