by far the best and most informative video on 2k24 ive seen. really helped me out. salamat

You are so needed, bro.

Can you do a video explaining how to trigger different layups specifically demar derozan layup package

Thank you so much! When you said to straighten out my body and release it, it helped like a miracle. People always told me to look for my release point but it never worked. Thanks so much!!

It's different animation hints for different jump shots, you'd be surprised at what makes the most sense for some jumpers! Sometimes it's the arms, sometimes it's the body, or even the knees! I'm glad I could help out bro!

The shooting and ai contest system are so inconsistent. My jumpshots always are changing in timing when I’m doing moving shots

Thank you... I haven't played these games since PS2... All grown-up now and it has changed to a disturbing point which is supposed to make it more realistic (w/e). I have really missed playing but whenever I tried the new ones I couldn't make a shot. Very frustrating... It's like I have to learn the whole thing from the beginning. I hope that training mode explains things as well as you.

I'm in my 40s and literally going through the same frustration buy 2k23 was much easier to make shots.

how do contests affect shot timing? it feels like last year it sped up your shot, this year it feels like it slows it down

Is this the Paul George build. Do i need post control to do the spin jumpers mid range?

release seems to be my cue. appreciate it 👍🏿

If I’m not wrong I assume the trend of hitting green=buckets continuing and slightly late or early shots will be missed.

Where would you reccomend to practice dribbling / shooting ? Team Practice Facility, Private Gatorade Court, Art of Shooting Gym, Brickleys Gym etc

@KevinCruz016

8 ай бұрын

The Gatorade court can simulate both fatigue and loss of adrenaline so that helps. Try to get someone in the gym with you so that you guys can rebound for each other etc.

what worked for me was understanding the visual cue, bcz it was so vague for me on (push) when i first started i thought it was when the wrist was loaded ready to push and i kept getting slightly early then i thought it was after the ball was pushed and kept getting slightly late, so i say all that to say once i figured out the push cue is for when the ball is being pushed it made it 100 times easier to shoot with the right jumpshot cue.

What determines the step back shot animations? Is that the step back dribble move that you pick in animations?

@Kentarius

@spxrkthizz

Its your Hop jumpers for the stepback you do holding right stick down. And when you flick it instead and then shoot thats the dribble moves stepback

I play head to head online w the Heat. Most of their shooters have slow shots. What shot timing do you recommend?

@KevinCruz016

8 ай бұрын

For normal and slow shots, I just go with push. Set point feels inconsistent to me, and I really liked the early release in 2K23.

how about nba2k24 arcade editon? no shooting cue setting?

What jump shot are you using in this video. Base and R1 R2

@KevinCruz016

Pure Curry release. I use him so much in other game modes it just helps me be consistent. Curry base, r1 and r2 steph curry, nothing else touched

I know you said you focus on the body straightening when shooting. Are you focused on the top half or the base(lower body)?

i’m a little confused by what you mean by the body straightening

@KevinCruz016

5 ай бұрын

The body goes from a slightly bent, hunched position to completely vertical in the process of the jump shot. It’s the animation hint that works for me, for some they observe the arms or even the ball position. I find that for this jumper, the body straightening out works best dor me. If it’s completely straight that’s when I know the jumper reached its peak

It really isn’t. Green windows are affected by stamina, adrenaline, and the level of contest. Take good shots, without being tired, or over dribbling or being clamped, You can alter shot timing and green window by having high attributes and badges.
