Pay attention to challenges disputed

Just like in real basketball, you must be careful not to take disputed strokes. If a defender has a hand directly in front of your face, it will be difficult for you to completely get shot. And if the defender rubs right next to you, it can be extremely dangerous to try, thanks to the fact that there will be little space to work.

Rather than attempting a challenged shot, a good way to release things is to move the balloon. By passing the ball, not only can you move the opposing team, but it should also help you find a discrepancy, even an open teammate. If you can find this open man, give him the ball, because it should have a better chance of making a shot.

the call plays if necessary

If passing the ball does not open room, you have other options. You can try a Drive (Left Joystick + RT / R2) or use the right stick to make a turn to beat the defender, but you also have the possibility to call a fixed game. Tray games, such as screens, can release the opposing team’s defense and perhaps give one of your teammates an open look.

To call a game, first press LB / L1 by dribbling. This will open a box where you can call multiple different formations. To call one of these readings that appear, select the button that matches playback. To do this from time to time will not only make you more unpredictable, but will also take off an opponent without a mistrust. Do not always opt for a 3 This could be tempting, because three-point shots are quite the thing in NBA. But the reality is that you have more chances to simply score by introducing the balloon into painting. Take a three-point shooting is paying, but be careful when you try them. Play the percentages and try to make the ball work inside, because you have a better chance of making a basket from there, as opposed to behind the bow.
