I BALL Moves
AND 1 is known for its outrageous trick moves, and with the I BALL control system, you too can pull off many of the same moves seen on the AND 1 Mix Tapes. I BALL moves not only look cool, they also earn your player respect and can make your defender "break his ankles," allowing for a quick opening to the basket.
You can preview your unlocked I BALL controls by going to the I BALL Controls screen from the Main Menu or Mix Tape Tour menu.
Note: I BALL moves require special timing to pull off. Please check out the in-game tutorial for more information.

In-Game Interface

Shows how many points have been scored in the current game.
Player/Team Name
Displays the current player or team.
Crowd Meter
Reflects how excited the crowd is based on your performance during the game. The more I BALL moves and anklebreakers you do, the more the crowd meter will go up. Note that you need to "finish" (i.e., score a basket) in order for the crowd meter to stay high. If you perform tricks to build up the crowd meter but get the ball stolen, the crowd meter will revert to its former level.
Once the crowd meter is full, you earn a "Mic Checka" Mic. Mics let you do one of two special things:
•
Activate On Fire mode (L1 + L2 buttons): Pressing the L1 + L2 buttons will activate On Fire mode, causing the ball to glow red and boosting your team's stats considerably. On Fire mode will extinguish when your opponent steals or turbo blocks the ball, or scores a basket.
•
Perform a Breakdown (R1 + R2 buttons): After earning a Mic, players can perform an AND 1 Breakdown move worth +3 points in half-court games, or +5 points in full-court games. To do this, press and hold the R1 + R2 buttons when your player's indicator icon is pulsating on the court. The name of the Breakdown move to be performed
