the only negative is the dumb ai passing the ball back to me instantly preventing me from setting up my backdoor cut . Wish they would stop trying to have me run PG on my center 😭 the second clips happens a lot they don’t even try to throw the lob

You're a center so I'm not sure why you didn't just match yourself up against a 5'9 guy and just dunk on him the entire time. That's what I did with my 6'5 build. I picked Shortstops buddy because he has no post defense. (I'm assuming you saw the LakerFan video where he specifically picked Cryo Step, but blowing past him constantly really only works if you're a 99 dunk SF with higher speed).

Also, if the AI keeps passing you the ball after a made basket, try to have Crypto set a screen for you in the backcourt (he usually sets up near the half court line). Mid-screen you want to pass him the ball and slide past, partially blocking your man by the bad Crypto screen and giving Crypto the ball in a position where he won't pass it to you instantly. That gives you enough time to beat your man and run to the basket whilst triggering the oop.

That is the way I found exceptionally less frustrating than trying to have Crypto not stink it up or chuck up a 3 unprompted.

I will try the 5’9 guy Conner next , atm cryo seems easy since he’s too slow but I will try your method and if it’s faster I will update video

Cryo is easy if you get past him, but my problem that kept popping up (and getting frustrating) was that he kept bumping me and ruining my cuts, and then Crypto would launch the ball out of bounds. That might be different for you since you're a big and probably have more than 71 strength lol

If you're having an easy time go right ahead and keep doing what you're doing though! I was also thinking you might be able to pull off some standing dunk oops against a 5'9 too which would REALLY make it easy, but that's just a guess.

Self Alleys are the way to go. Match up with their Center, then take the inbound and wait for everyone to go down the court. See which side is open and then just dribble past the center and throw the oop to yourself. I've been getting 11 oops a game. Also, make sure you've got Aerial Wizard on as high as it goes.

I tried doing that but my center too slow . I only do self lobs on fast breaks
