How to use Shot Aiming
Shot-Aiming allows users to take control of the aim of their jump-shots and lay-ups using the pro-stick. When you pull down on the pro-stick, you push it back up in your desired direction while timing the shot window to get a "perfectly green" shot release.
Perks and Cons to Shot Aiming vs Shot Button
Using the pro stick and shot aiming feature has its pros. For one, you get more time to aim your shot than while using the shot button. Additionally, you typically have a higher chance of getting a green release when you aim your shot with the pro stick than the shot button.
On the other hand, the shot-stick is a lot harder to learn, which is why the shot button is the most used. Additionally, shot aiming is also more difficult off the dribble.
