Outside scorers
With outside scorers, if you get close to the basket and are moving towards it, hold the FSS button and press the pass button to do a lay-up which is (I think) impossible to block and the only way to stop it is to foul. The animation changes depending on whether you hold the button (pass) or tap it.
Use the FSS button + shoot when moving away from the basket to perform off-balance or turn-around jump shots. Also can be used while backing down. If used while moving towards the basket or while still, he performs a kinda double-pump shot.
Use the FSS button + pro-hop when on the run. The player will perform a running jump shot which is fairly accurate if used from the right range. If used while standing still or moving away from the basket, the player whill perform a one-handed-bank-shot-runner. This is very accurate if used when with about 15' from the basket, the further out you are, the less accurate.
Use the FSS button + dunk when driving to the basket, press it from a fair way out (can be used form at least 20' if you are moving directly to the basket. Tapping the dunk button causes the player to pretend to go behind the back for a lay up, holding the button causes the player to rotate the ball arond his body while laying it up.
I hope this helps.
Note: when a outside scorer is in triple threat position, if you hold the FSS button, he will perform different fakes when you move the right-analog stick around (i don't know how to do it with keyboard).
Inside Scorers
FSS + Dunk performs a lay-up which can't be stripped (I think), use this only when facing the basket or it won't work and he will throw up some retarded looking shot which doesn't usually go in.
FSS + Pass performs a running-jump-hook which is very accurate from 15' or closer. This is a very easy way to score because this shot is very accurate, don't use it too close to the baseline because of the chance he might run behind the backboard and chuck it out of bounds (in the back of the backboard).
FSS + Shoot is the same/similar to the outside scorers ability, check above for more details. It is very useful to use when backing down because it creates space for an open shot.
FSS + pro-hop is also the same as outside scorers, see above. Use this when in the post and you want to bank it in (be moving backwards or not moving at all).
FSS + right analog stick in triple threat can do some special post moves apparantly but I'm not sure and I've never tried to do them.
