"i just cant get used to making crossover moves etc with the LS.."

Yeah, not with that attitude.

Practice makes perfect in my humble opinion when it comes to Iso. I have never played a 2K game before this one and played Live10 religiously all last season, but upon booting 2K11 up I made a conceited effort to play and learn using the ShotStick controls.

After playing through the first section of practice mode about the only move I couldn't pull off was the half spin move ala Kobe Bryant, but even still without it I have made my play so much better and it is making playing the Jordan Challenge mode a lot less frustrating.

My advice to dude up above is simply practice, practice, practice. This game ain't no NBA Jam!

Sorry, I haven't used the right stick for isomotion, so I can't really help with that. What I can do is provide some motivation and moral support. I suspect you'll get better at it with practice. That sort of defeatist attitude has no place on the court, time for you to put in work. I will coach you up if I need to, you don't do as I say, you run laps. Got it? DO YOU HAVE ...IT!?!?!?!?

Then you have never looked carefully enough. It is in the tutorial in the "freestyle" practice game mode, and is called Up and Under/Stepthrough.

Right stick for iso is pretty limited. (unless I am missing something.)

I was hoping to use it too, coming over from Live 10, but eventually I bit the bullet and went back to the default isomotion.

Feels like they spent all their time refining the default settings and just threw in the alt settings as an afterthought. *Happy to be proven wrong though.

It's worth the effort of getting used to the default iso in my opinion.

For a crossover you need to be moving.

Otherwise you'll do one of these.

From standing dribble: Size up move Left/Right

From standing no dribble: jab steps, triple threat stuff.

Hope that helps.

I can't even get my guy to post anyone up in the paint. I guess I'll read the 30 pages here and try to figure something out. I just want to back my guy down and try to spin off and take it to the rim or get the clean fade-away. I can't seem to find any rhythm whatsoever with this game. ugh.
What you are looking for is probably the Drop step or Step through moves.

As you are backing them down pull RT (or R2) and push the left stick towards the paint or towards the base line.

Then finish with a dunk or whatever. Don't go baseline unless you are pretty high up in the post as you'll usually end up going behind the backboard.

Took me a while to find those moves too.

Gonna try 'em with Ewing tonight, see if they got his signature moves down.

i dont have a defeatist attitude. i just said i cant get used to the LS. i can do most of the moves, but to me its not very fluid. again, just for me i guess.

yeah, it would be nice to do the same movements on the r-stick. just seems like when i want to do a move, i pull it off, but something just seems off to me.
 
# 331 NEW_ERA_23 @ 10/19/10 01:26 AM
i have a question about isomotion, do you have to press the LT and LS simultaneously, or hold LT a little bit before you move the LS?
 
# 332 jeebs9 @ 10/19/10 10:54 AM
^^I hold it a little before^^
 
# 333 infam0us @ 10/19/10 01:45 PM
When I know I need or want to pull off a isomotion I press the LT a little before I make the move. Same with lay-ups and dunk, when I slash I see a defender I press LT quickly so I can spin away from him with a lay-up or euro-step.
 
# 334 NEW_ERA_23 @ 10/19/10 06:36 PM
thanks guys that helped alot....
 
# 335 Kaddyshacks @ 10/19/10 07:33 PM
How do you do the up/unders when your back is not turned to the rim or you're not posting someone up? I played this guy who was so good at them, he could pumpfake then do a spin, and all this other crazy stuff. How are those executed?

Well, to do up/under facing the rim, you hold LT and tap the RS towards to basket to perform the fake, then right afterwards, hold the RS towards to basket to attempt the shot/layup. The move i'm imagining you're talking about regarding the guy is when you're posting up with a live dribble, you initiate a pump fake, then hold RT and tap Y, which will make your post player do a clean spin move after the pump fake, which then he probably used the up/under technique mentioned above.
 
# 337 Kaddyshacks @ 10/19/10 08:23 PM
Yea, no, I know how to do all the postup moves with the back to the basket, but it was like a spin while he wasn't posting up, but right after one of the pumpfakes. I have a funny feeling though the method you just described was how he did it. I will experiment when I can after getting home. Thanks!
 
# 338 dontflinch @ 10/19/10 09:00 PM
Quick question here guys.

I was playing with the different controls today (default, A, B) and noticed that I couldnt seem to figure how to do a hopstep (either a step back or spin toward the basket) with the Alt-A controls. I know how to do them with the default controls, but is it also possible with Alt-A as well?
 
# 339 Rawdeal28 @ 10/19/10 10:16 PM
@kaddyshack i think u are referring to the "flick-flick" moves. Hold L2 then tap the right stick once then tap & hold a second time in any direction to pull off the moves. U can do all types of up and unders. this has opened up a whole new world of moves for me. This game is so deep, i love it!
 
# 340 leo2k2ndc @ 10/20/10 12:03 PM
I found for the in and out move, if you go strong hand, weak hand, strong hand, it helps...

EX. You have the ball in the right hand ... Hold L2/LT then LS (<,>,<)

The only move I have a hard time pulling off sometimes is the half spin... And that is because when doing it fluently, it sometimes I guess takes too long and the game reads it as an in and out or spin
