Right, but (and maybe I read it wrong) what I thought you were saying is holding the stick in a direction away from the ball hand will do a crossover, regardless of whether you tap it or hold it. If you tap it, it just does the crossover. If you hold it, it does the crossover into the shot.

So, keep the left stick neutral with right stick in any direction for pull up. Then if you are going right with right stick and push left stick right it will be momentum shot in that direction correct?

Thats also what I would assume.

Hopefully tap and hold (towards off hand) will result in a cross into jumper.

@DaCzar - Fake pass? is it still double tap A?

Taps are dibbles, Holds are shots, All of that is timing based, so you tap then after he starts the crossover... you hold if you want him to shoot. Depending on your timing in the ver I played you could start a cross and pullup before it was implemented or wait and do it after the cross depending on your stick speed.

Yes the version I played that is how it worked.

I'm still a little lost, but the demo's coming out soon (I assume), and I don't wanna frustrate anybody because I'm not grasping this.

1 last question. If I'm going right and moving left stick right and then hold the right stick left is this a spin jumper? If I hold the right stick down is this a step back jumper?

No a spin jumper will be a RS rotation around the players back from the ball hand.

I also had the same idea for the stepback jumper, hold RS away from basket.
