      Great vid! Only tip thats not in here was (using you microphone)
      The power of communication is vital as well. I can manipulate the game this way and call plays or calm ppl down if they aren’t shooting well or not feeling like they’re not getting the ball.

      Best tip is as a point guard know you can score at anytime. So don't ball hog or force your style on others. Pg should be able to adapt all the time

    Couldn’t agree more about the slowing down when coming up the court. But the problem is that 2k made steals and bumps way too op this year so you can’t stand still and wait for the guy to get up the court if you have a lock spamming you. Literally crossbody reaches while you’re holding L2 and you’ll still get plucked by some clown that just spams

Just had 12 assist in rec my first game after watching this. my build is a hybrid lockdown defender so i can guard any position 1-5 and normally be flying all over the place trying to help whoevers man might be cooking them but i focused on getting good looks for my teammates so we could set up our defense and matchups and disrupting the other teams pg and the flow of their offense and we won by 50.
