how do you guys defend this move? a lot of players will take their center either to the FT line or low block, if at the FT they will sprint straight at the hoop and then hold sprint and hit the hopstep button and either my guy will completely get shook by the spin or he will say w/ the guy on offense, but they are so close to the basket that they can either wait till i try and block it then shoot, or if I use the R analog to stick my hands straight up, they can either shoot it over me or sometimes dunk it.

if they catch it on the low block they will run out towards the FT line, then turn around when they have some space, do the spin move, and what do ya know, they are right below the basket again and its the same way as up above.

how do you guard this? do you have to double before they have the chance to spin? do you what? i give up so many points to others who just exploit this move.

if they have a 7 footer they can just dunk it almost every time.

Try to anticipate the spin and take a charge or do the arms up animation. For some reason the game only lets players 6'9 and up pull off the spin followed by a dunk so if you see them going to it once more than likely they will abuse it with their bigs.

ive decided that it is impossible to take a charge against this move in CH, maybe in NBA but not CH. the defender gets pushed under the basket

the only thing thats going to change my mind is visuals so if any1 has em show me
