Re: Shooting

You don't have any control over what kind of shot you do with the button (aside from just determining the release point). With the shot stick, you have a wide range of moves to use, especially in the post. It doesn't really matter for jumpshots (which is why I always use the button for shots), but it opens up a ton of possibilities in the post and on dunks/layups. Check the manual if you have it -- there's a decent description of what the stick does for you. Here's the basic rundown:

Shot Stick towards basket = regular dunk/layup
Away from basket = reverse
Towards player's left = finesse move
Towards player's right = power move

There are most moves in the post using the shot stick, but I can't really give you a list, as it depends on their post offense rating what they're capable of doing. But just experiment with it and you'll find some good moves, especially with a guy with a high offensive post rating...
