Shoot at the top of the jump
Release timing beats positioning — the ball drops cleanly when you shoot at the apex.
Save the super shot
Once the bar fills, spend it on a possession that actually matters — it scores from anywhere and never misses.
Block on defense
A well-timed jump-block flips the possession and the momentum.
Dash for open looks
Double-tap a direction to break free — the AI chases dashes poorly.
