Moving Crossover: Stephen Curry
Moving Behind The Back: Allen Iverson
Moving Spin: Jason Tatum
Moving Hesitation: Kyrie Irving
Moving Stepback: Normal
Triple Threat Style: Michael Jordan
We have small guards, so under 6’4’’, obviously you're going to have really high ball control, 92 ball control, this is coming from Yompuh, so he uses the dribble style Michael Jordan. The only requirement for this is 75 speed with ball, so you can use this on taller players and it's the best dribble style in the game. Yompuh's signature size up is Steve Francis, this is going to give you that really quick switch of hands and just run. He's able to just switch hands and run fast the other way. It's a little bit left right cheese, but it's really fast, really effective. Size of Escape is John Wall, this is one of the more popular size of escapes. The misdirection using John Wall's size up Escape is really good, this animation is just really fluent, it creates a lot of space, it's quick, everything you would want in a misdirection John Wall Escape has. Moving crossover is Stephen Curry, obviously you need 92 ball handle for this, so you're going to be a small guard and you need to make sure you put your ball handling all the way up to get this animation. Moving behind the back is Allen Iverson, it's not just the fact these animations work really well, it's the fact they work together. So you definitely want moves that work well individually but more importantly, you want moves packaged together that work well in unison. Moving spin is Jason Tatum, moving hesitation is Kyrie Irving and moving step back is normal and the triple threat style is Michael Jordan.
#2 - 6'5-6'7 Players (YoungDirk)
Dribble Style: Michael Jordan
Signature Size-Up: Kobe Bryant
Size-Up Escape Package: Kyrie Irving
Moving Crossover: James Harden
Moving Behind The Back: Damian Lillard
Moving Spin: Basic
Moving Hesitation: Zach Lavine
Moving Stepback: Luka Doncic
Triple Threat Style: Michael Jordan
Next up we have players from 6'5 -6'7 with 90 ball control, so a little bit taller with a little less ball control. Dribble style is Michael Jordan, everyone's using it. Signature size up users is Kobe Bryant, this is going to give you that really quick between the legs and you can just speed boost out of it. Size of Escape is Kyrie Irving, this not only has a nice misdirection but it also has a nice little like behind the back speed boost and a decent hop back. Moving crossover uses is James Harden, this is really low to the ground, relatively quick, creates a decent amount of space. Behind the back is Damian Lillard, it creates a good amount of space, it's not super straightforward, it's more to the side but you can definitely get to the basket with it. Moving spin is basic, this is going to give you those really quick good spin backs. Moving hesitation is Zach Levine, the way he puts his hand close to the ball it almost looks like he's going to shoot it, really keeps the defender guessing. Moving step back is Luka Doncic, this gives you like those four big steps to the side while you're running. Then Michael Jordan triple threat style.
#3 - 6'5-6'9 Players (Joe Knows)
Dribble Style: Michael Jordan
Signature Size-Up: Tracy Mcgrady
Size-Up Escape Package: LeBron James
Moving Crossover: Nornal
Moving Behind The Back: Zach Lavine
Moving Spin: Basic
Moving Hesitation: Luka Doncic
Moving Stepback: Luka Doncic
Triple Threat Style: Michael Jordan
This is really good for players like 6'5-6'9 with 87 ball control, but it could go down to all the way to 6’5’’. Dribble Style again Michael Jordan, the best dribble style in the game, if you get it, put it on. With Tracy Mcgrady signature size up, you can just combo between the legs and crossovers so quickly. Size up escape can be Paul George and John Wall, but LeBron James is better, because if you want that quick big hop back, LeBron is the best, he can create so much space. Moving crossover can be normal in the open court, but in the half court like Donovan Mitchell. Behind the back, Zach Levine, it's just a nice animation, it creates a lot of space, jumps you to the side and jumps you forward enough. Use basic for moving spin just like young Dirk and a lot of other ISO players because the spin backs are just so good and so quick, gets you open for threes, gets people biting, you can combo it really well even out of the Triple Threat. Whether you get the really quick spin back or you do the old slower spin back, it's still really effective. But moving hesitation is Luka Doncic, it's the best one in the game by far, this is the four-step run back. Then use Michael Jordan for triple threat style, this gives you that one hand pump fake.
#4 - 6'10+ Players (Koza)
Dribble Style: Joel Embiid
Signature Size-Up: Pro
Size-Up Escape Package: LeBron James
Moving Crossover: Pro
Moving Behind The Back: Zach Lavine
Moving Spin: Basic
Moving Hesitation: Lach Levine
Moving Stepback: Luka Doncic
Triple Threat Style: Joel Embiid
This is for 6'10 and taller players, but you gotta have an 80 ball handle for these six. On the 610 build, he doesn't have a high enough speed with ball to get Michael Jordan dribble style, so he uses Joel Embiid. Use pro for signature size-up, with the taller builds, you're limited in what you can get, so you gotta have some stuff that you can work with even if it's not quote unquote the Meta or best on the game, you still see the way he's able to chain things together, so it's definitely a solid signature size up. The size of Escape package is LeBron James, it's the best hop back in the game, so taller ISO players, you want this, it's an easy kill especially after you get the defender dancing a little bit. Choose Donovan Mitchell for moving crossover, moving behind the back is Pro, it's not the best one in the game, but for a tall player, it's quick enough and goes enough to the side that you can get around players. Moving spin is basic, this is for those spin backs, really quick, good for any ISO player. The moving hesitation is Zach Levine, moving step back is Luka Doncic.
#5 - Low Ball Control Bigs (Joe Knows)
Dribble Style: Pro
Signature Size-Up: Ben Simmons
Size-Up Escape Package: LeBron James
Moving Crossover: Normal
Moving Behind The Back: Zach Lavine
Moving Spin: Basic
Moving Hesitation: Normal
Moving Stepback: Vince Carter
Triple Threat Style: Michael Jordan
For all tall low ball control bigs, there's not a lot of great animations that will get you at least a decent amount of space. Dribble style is pro, signature size up Ben Simmons, size of Escape LeBron James, moving cross normal, moving behind the back normal, moving spin basic, you still do that spin back even with the tall players. Moving hesitation normal, moving step back Vince Carter, it is very similar to the Luka, it's like a watered down version of Luka.
