    Hello mate I’m from the uk and im a massive football fan but I started watching curry and always wanted to try a basketball game,Iv been able to download nba 24 on PlayStation plus and play it but I’m so bad.Bear in mind Iv never played a basketball game in my life,I kinda enjoyed getting smashed by Ai & im not one to give up when things get hard so I’m going to work this out and learn,I’m going to watch all ur videos and try learn as much as I can my plan was try get good enough and have a good understanding how the game is and the rules before I think about getting nba 25 or just call it quits at 24

      I don't, it makes it were bums can't beat skilled players from just pushing one star player that's hot and ruins the whole momentum of your play. That's what I hate. It can be very hard to come back from big lead because it litterly makes it harder for you. I don't like that

    Hi. What is the minimum number at Layup to score as many times as we can? 75? Higher? Any advice which Layup animation is good and usable?

    • @KevinCruz016
      @KevinCruz016  7 місяців тому

      I would say that you will find consistent success at around 84 or 85, being able to finish through occasional contact and at times tough contests!
      As a guy who loves layups, 80 is the lowest I’d go! Now if you want to go crazy and be really elite, 91 is the minimum and with that level you’ll be pretty unstoppable as long as you take the right kind of layups!

    Question, do you think the boost to finishing you get with taking the meter off is bigger than the boost you get from having pro touch on HOF? Which requires the meter if I’m not mistaken?

    • @KevinCruz016
      @KevinCruz016  Рік тому +1

      Pro touch boost should matter more than the meter off boost for layups - especially considering how vastly different timings are for different layups. While I still think you should keep the meter off, I think turning it on should be fine if you have Pro Touch on HOF!
