good 3 point player and shoot it. Keep doing this throughout
the game to get a lot of GameBreakers. If you get enough trick
points, when you win and choose a new NBA player, choose the player
development points instead. When you have enough, you can make
a player with perfect stats.

Play as the NBA Challengers
Have one player play Hold The Court mode. While playing,
another player can press [Start] and that person will have
to play with the NBA Challengers team.
Easy basket
To get an easy basket, pump fake, and the CPU should
jump. While he is jumping, drive in for a dunk.
Look at the circle under the player's feet when you have the ball.
When a circle inside the circle under the players feet turns green,
shoot the ball and you will make it in 99% of the time. It can
be any shot but a jam.
Whenever you are facing another team, make sure you have a shooter.
Then (if you are in or out of the key), try to make your player
shoot as if he shot the ball from over his head. After you shoot,
98% of the time it will go in.
After the opposing team scores, inbound the ball, and pass it
to your teammate who is breaking from about half-court. Do a trick
move (Slip n' Slide or Reel2reel recommended), fake the opponent
out, and do a Dinner's Served ([R1] + [R2] + [L1]
+ [L2] while around the freethrow line). This works most
of the time. The opponent will sometimes back away or strip you,
but if done correctly, you will get a point, and 18,000 trick
points.
Easy 3 pointers
When you are playing a team and you are down in points,
you have a lot better chance to make a 3-pointer.
Stand anywhere where you can make a 3-pointer. Wait until someone
jumps up for an ally-oop. This work best if they grab on to the
rim. When they are holding on to the rim, they will lower it,
and it will be easier to make the shot. The closer they are to
each other, the better the chances.
Easy steals
To steal the ball easily, wait until you score. After
that, the CPU passes it in. Go to the right side of the player
that is getting the ball passed to him. When the CPU passes it
in, try to steal.
Easy blocks
The best shotblockers are athletic tall players, such
as Alonzo Mourning or Takashi. If you get those players, you will
probably block every shot made.
Choose a team such as the Lakers. Once you score, send Shaq directly
in front of the opposing hoop. Once they shoot, jump by pressing
[Triangle]. This also works well with Takashi and Yeti Snowman.
When you complete the City Circuit and can choose a new player,
if you want a high block accuracy select the Yeti Snowman. He
can make about 99% of your blocks.
Easy trick points
When heading toward the basket on a breakaway, hold
[L1] + [L2] + [R1] + [R2] and press [Square].
You should pull off an advanced trick move. While still holding
[L1] + [L2] + [R1] + [R2], switch from [Square]
to [Circle]. You should pull off the "Dinners Served".
That two move combo will result in 18,000 trick points.
Use the following trick to do an Easy Hook-Up Alley-Oop. When
receiving the ball after the other team scores (this can also
be done if you get the ball from a block or steal made by you),
run to the other side of the court holding only two or three turbo
buttons (optionally, you can do an advanced trick move on your
way but this will slow you down and decrease your chances). You
will see one of your players also rushing to give you a chance
for an alley-oop. By the time he or she jumps up, you should be
in mid-air with your dunk. Very quickly pass to him or her for
an Easy Hook-Up Alley-Oop, which instantly gives you 20,000 trick
points (23,000 if you did an advance trick move with it). Note:
This does not work all the time, requires a lot of skill, and
requires the two players to have very good dunk stats.
Easy win
To win a game easily, choose a team like the Lakers
with many tall players. When the other team tries to shoot or
dunk, you can jump and block it then dunk then ball.
Easy Hold The Court win
At the main menu, go to "Hold The Court"
mode and press [Start] for both player one and player two.
Do not enter a User ID for player two. Choose a team for yourself
and for the second player. Choose your players and start the game.
Player two will not score or move. When they get the ball, go
up to them and steal it. This helps to win the Hold The Court
mode, for a quick win, or to get a lot of trick points.
Better win-loss record
This is helpful in the City Circuit for those who want
a good record: If you are playing a game and know you are going
to lose, select "Quit" in the menu, then select "Rematch".
Your record is unaffected, which means you do not get the loss.
Also, you do not have to wait for the game to load over again.
Play one game in the first region
Choose either the Toronto Raptors or the Vancouver
Grizzlies and you will only play one game for the first region.
This also speeds up your season.
Full attributes
Immediately after you have created your perfect player,
you will realize that every member of your team has full attributes.
This is very useful when you have the taller players who are less
likely to make outside shots and perform advanced trick moves,
and the players who are excellent ball handlers but are not proficient
at dunkimg and blocking. Make full use of the opportunity and
use your tallest players as the full attributes only lasts for
one game.
Avoid losing the ball
Do not try advanced trick moves such as Slip and Slides
with large players such as Biggs, Shaq O' Neal, or Alonzo Mourning.
They will often lose the ball at the end of the move.
Stopping Gamebreakers
If the other team has a Gamebreaker and you have the
ball, go to the other team's side of the court. Dribble and do
not let the other team get the ball. When the shot clock is approaching
zero, Shoot the ball from full court. Then, get the rebound and
repeat. The other team's Gamebreaker will run out and you will
have the ball.
Easy Gamebreaker shot
During a game, get a Gamebreaker after getting alot
of trick points. Drive down the court with the ball, being careful
not to get it stolen from you. When you get outside of the three
point line, let your defender get directly in front of you with
his legs apart. This trick will only work if his legs are apart.
Next, press [Square] and you should do a Left Behind move.
This move takes the ball that goes under the defender's legs then
pulls it back, leaving the defender clueless. After the ball is
pulled back, there will be nobody to block the shot for awhile;
you can just press your [Turbos] and shoot.
