Hint:
Easy shots: Before attempting a shot when you are closely guarded, try
stepping back to clear space and increase your chances of making the basket.
To step back, tap Right Analog-stickDown when you are
standing and dribbling the ball. At any point during this move, you can
press Shoot to launch your shot. This is also a great move if your
player is standing just inside the arc and want to try a 3-pointer instead
of a long-range 2.
Hint:
Easy dynasty points: Play a game under the rookie difficulty in dynasty mode and get
20 shots in a row. Just do dunks and play against a team with no shot
blockers. You will get over 2000 dynasty points.
Simulate dynasty to the
playoffs or pass the playoffs to the off-season. You should get a message on
your PDA that states that you have received NBA Store points.The amount may
vary. Go to NBA Store to see how many points you have, then exit. Save the
settings but do not save the dynasty. Go to the main menu and load your
settings. Go to NBA Store and buy items (shoes, throwbacks, accessories,
etc.). When out of points, save your settings and repeat this trick.
Hint:
Easy dynasty mode: Before you start dynasty mode, trade Deshauwn Stevenson and
Jameer Nelson for Brad Miller. Start dynasty mode, then play with Miller for
about five games very well (only score points with him). However, make sure
you win all of the games. Then, trade Brad Milller for Okufor on the
Bobcats. You will win every game. Make sure you do not trade Francis,
Howard, Hill, Cato, or Mobley. Mobley will try to leave at the end of the
season -- resign him.
In dynasty mode, when
simulating a regular season or finals game, if you are in the third quarter
and it appears that you may lose go to "Play Game". Press X
and you will return to the schedule or finals schedule. It will show that
you have not played the game. You can then re-simulate the game until you
get a desirable result.
Go to the "Settings"
option at the start menu. Go to "Rules". Turn off all the rules
except the shot clock. You can now run out of bounds, travel, and foul.
Start a season or dynasty mode.
Choose your team then once go to the roster management screen. Select
"Edit Player". You will then be able to set all the stats of all
your players to 99. You should be able to win any games you play. Try
playing as the New York Knicks and the only team you will have tiny chance
of losing to is the Boston Celtics.
Hint:
Easy points: To get easy points, give the ball to your PG and use Direct
Switch with your best dunker on the team. Then, set a pick and roll for
the PG (or the ball handler). Move your person in the opposite direction of
where the PG moved. When you are a few steps from the basketball, press Alley-Oop.
This works at least 80% of the time. The best teams for this are those that
have flashy players (the Denver Nuggets, Houston Rockets, Orlando Magic,
Miami Heat, or just a team that has a few dunkers)
Give the ball to a very good
player such as Bryant, Iverson, Pierce, McGrady, etc., and call the
Isolation play by pressing D-pad Left. Most times they will double
team you and just pass the ball to the wide open player. He hopefully will
make the shot. This will only work if you have trouble getting a shot. Be
careful because it does not work all the time.
Before attempting a shot when
you are closely guarded, try stepping back to clear space and increase your
chances of making the basket. To step back, tap the C-stickDown
when you are standing and dribbling the ball. At any point during this move
you can press Shoot to launch your shot. This is also a great move if
you find your player standing just inside the arc and want to try a
three-pointer instead of a long-range two.
Hint:
Franchise ratings change: If you have a franchise, go to "Roster Management" and
select "Edit Player". Choose any of your starters and put any pair
of Jordan sneakers on that player. You will notice a ratings change on all
five starters.
Hint:
Guarding: When playing defense, if you have trouble guarding the ball
carrier try switching control to one of your big men down low in the paint
and "roam" the key while your CPU teammate does the work up top
guarding the ball carrier. This puts you in position to stop penetration
easily and force your opponent to shoot from outside. If the big man you
choose to control is also a Big Blocker (as indicated by the hand icon), he
should be able to turn away even the best offensive players with fearsome
blocks and in-air collisions. Playing tough defense is your key to victory
when playing against the toughest opponents.
Hint:
Winning championships easily: To win championships without playing, just save and simulate. If
you lose, quit without saving and simulate again until you win.
Hint:
Pump up the crowd: When on defense, quickly press the C-stick Up and Down
to egg on the crowd.
Tap the C-stickUp
and Down to pump up the crowd. If your hold Right Analog-stick Up,
it will just make your player put his hands up.
Hint:
No three pointers: Choose to play at the 1950s All-Star arena. There will be no
three point line and all shots are worth two points.
Hint:
Better season mode team: Start a new season. Before anything else, go to "Free
Agents", and sign the highest rated free agents you can find, such as
Alonzo Mourning (70), and Karl Malone (69). Replace good free agents similar
to them with your weaker bench players. With more high rated people on your
team, you will be able to make more trades to get very good players on you
team.
In season mode when trading,
look for teams with one or more spots available on their roster. You can
trade two or more lower ranked players for one of their higher-ranked
people. Keep doing this with teams. You can then get even better people on
your team. Using this and the previously mentioned "Better season mode
team" hint will not be as effective in dynasty mode, because of the
salary cap. However in season mode, it does not matter. By using both hints,
it is possible to get a team with Allen Iverson, Shaq, Yao Ming, Peja
Stojakovic, Manu Ginobili, and other decent players.
There is an easy way to change
a horrible team into a great team to use in dynasty mode. Trade all the bad
players to other teams for great players before you begin the dynasty. For
example, before starting dynasty mode with Atlanta, trade their starting
five players for Shaq, Duncan, Mike Dunleavy, Kobe, and Gilbert Arenas.
After doing this, save the settings, then begin the dynasty.
When playing in season mode, go
to the "Roster Management" section then enter the sign/release
area. Go through all the teams and gather all of the best fifteen players
(for example, Kevin Garrnett) and sign them onto your team. You will have to
release some of your current team players to get the better players.
However, they will not come up under your team's trade players list.
Hint:
Announced home team starting line-up: Press Start when the records for both teams appear while
they are practicing.
