How do you get good at nba 2k9 quickly if you are new to nba 2k basketball video games?

i have never played any nba 2k basketball video games, so the controls are different from nba live. i also hate the fact the i always lose because every jump shot i shoot pretty much misses and everything the computer shoots goes in. So how do i get good at nba 2k9 fast? because i am losing a lot of games in the association mode.|||play alot and practise a lot|||u can change the controls u want to use in the options

|||Have the control manual near you, so you can find out any controls you need to know at any given time. Thats probably the first step, but then you just need to play 2k a little bit more.





I had the same problem when i first got it. Although i didnt play it much, over time i could easily switch between both games without noticing the different controls.|||in 2k basketball games it's all about timing on the shot. in nba live it's more about if your open. but for the 2k games what you wanna do is go to practice mode with people from the team your using and get a feel for how long to hold down the shoot button for your star players|||Before you start doing anything serious jus play Quick games and then play online or do an Association it's not that hard to get used to tough.|||Practice Practice, no not the game, practice.
