-take it rite over them...and lay it up...takes practice tho...or...

-before u dribble take a few jab steps and try gettin them to free u up sum space,this works great espicially if u got a great jumpshot...or...

-speed by really fast on ure strong side (well take the rite side as an example),then stop suddenlyand hopstep to the other side (left side), u should have a clear path and be able to lay it up...or...

-this doesnt always work by if u can outmuscle the d just take it strong while holding the ball tightly,u might not score but ull likely get fouled...

thanks man

1 more thing, whenever i try to take a shot my friend always quickly puts his hand like right above my head and i cant shoot because his hand is like that high. when he jumps he comes right infront of me with his hand above my head so i cant see where im shootin, is there a way to overcome this?i tried fakin him but he just stands there lol.

Speed is overrated. Elusiveness is what you need. Let me give you a move.

1. Dribble the ball.
2. Drive to the left.
3. Take one dribble the same time you step to the right with your right foot(directly at the defender) Put abit of body into this.
4. Step back with both feet, square up and shoot.

I can't explain it that well. If you put some body into this, you'll have some space for your shot.

try lowerin ur shoulder and just fightin to the hoop once you get close enough, that works pretty well

Begin to back them down, and try to get it so that you could quickly turn, and be around his shoulder. Move your arm up to the side when you do, so that he is slowed down a bit(If you watch, a lot of great players do this.) then take it up.

The first move shown in this short clip will give you an example. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRHbRzNshb4

Another thing is, as long as you don't hesitate you really won't have THAT many problems.

It depends on who the D is. If they are bigger than you, your best choice will probably be to fake them out either by going one way and and doing a sudden behind the back, (one of my favorites) or if they're smaller, and you think you can take them going up to the hoop just put some power into the drive, and tap it in. For big guys, just avoid putting the ball right in front of them when your going up to the rack. That will make for an easy block on the D's part.
