How to Do a Chase-Down Block on NBA 2K11

Basketball is a complex, fast-paced game. Playing tough on defense keeps your opponents' score low while forcing turnovers and giving your team more scoring opportunities. Steals, blocks and fouls are among the weapons in the defense arsenal. The chase-down block is a special move -- popularized by the NBA's LeBron James -- in which the player on defense chases an opposing player driving to the basket, comes in laterally or from behind and blocks his shot.

Instructions

1. • 1

     Pick a player with a high speed and block rating, because you'll need to overtake the opposing player moving to the basket.

   • 2

     Chase down the player at full sprint, avoiding other players who block your path.

   • 3

     Drive toward the basket with the expectation that the opposing player will try a dunk, layup or short jump shot near the hoop. Approach him from the rear or the side.

   • 4

     Press "Y" to block as your opponent begins to take his shot.
