Hint: Defeating Michael Jordan:
Defeat Michael Jordan one on one in superstar modeto unlock him on the roster.

Although the following trick can be done with any point totalto win, 11 is probably the best. Choose Jeff Hornacek to playagainst Michael Jordan. After getting the ball, just shoot three-pointers.Michael will not guard you until your start to make a lot of shotsor get a big lead. When he does start to guard, back up a fewfeet from the three point line and shoot the ball. He will notguard and you can still make the basket. Note: Make sure to releaseball at the top of your jump. Jeff Hornacek will not always makeit, so only shoot the three-pointer on every other shot. He shouldmake about 90% if he shoots every other shot. Try to drive onevery possession when you do not shoot a three.

Another strategy is to use Willis Reed. Back Jordan into the lane,and then shoot within five inches of the basket. Jordan cannotblock Reed, and Reed can also use a deadly jumper if he is lessthan 25 feet from the hoop.

Another strategy is to use Oscar Robertson, since he is a goodall-around player, could can shoot and post-up.

Another strategy is to create a player that is very tall, with99 in all attributes. Just post up and shoot three pointers.

Another strategy is to use John Stockton. After getting the ball,move back a little and shoot 3-pointers. Shoot the ball at thetop of your jump. When playing defense, just defend the best thatyou can.

Use Reggie Miller and drain threes. If your friend creates a 7'10monster and you cannot get a shot off, use Miller again. As soonas you get the ball, run backwards a step and fling a deep fadeaway- or drive in and back him down as far as you can. Instead ofletting the ball go at the peak of your jump, let go as soon asyou can and the ball will go through his chest.

Use a good three point shooter (preferably Jeff Hornaceck). Putthe score on eleven. Make sure that you go first -- keep tryinguntil you do. When playing, fake Jordan once then lean forwardon your jump. At the height of your jump, fire. If done correctly,he will almost always make it. Repeat this until you get withinone point of the win, then drive to the hoop to win.

When you are choosing a player, press C-Right to view hisstats, then press C-Right again to edit that player. Select"Yes", then change all of that player's stats to 99. You can also create a player with stats up to 99 by going to"1 on 1", pressing C-Right, then A.

Hint: Easy scoring:
Start a one-on-one game with a friend. Pump fake toget him/her to jump. Then, just go right around your opponentwith a spectacular dunk or nasty nice lay-up.

Hint: 3-point baskets:
To get fifteen 3-point baskets in a game, your bestplayers to do this are very streaky, but decent shooters (Bird,Rick Barry, Iverson, Glen Rice, Tim Hardaway, etc.). Many timeswith these players, you can either kick it out to them from thelow post and shoot, or (which is better most times), if you aregoing on the fast break, pull-up from 3 point range. You stillhave to shoot at the top of your jump, but with streaky shooters,you have a great chance of hitting several in a row, even if youdo not shoot from the top of your jump.

Try using Glenn Rice from the Lakers, or John Stockton from theJazz. Use as many chances as you can get -- set it up for 8.

Hint: Getting fifteen steals:
Use a good point guard (preferably) with quick hands(Iverson, Kidd, Payton, Stoudamire, Brandon, and Knight are probablythe best). Follow the ball. There are times when you can stripsomeone off the dribble, but that may be difficult (Kidd and IsiahThomas do that the best). The easiest way is to strip a playertrying to post-up down low, and your guard (the player you arecontrolling) comes on the double-team; but wait until the postplayer starts his dribble. You will steal the ball a lot by doingthis.

Hint: Triple-Double:
Try getting the Triple-Double with points, assists,and steals.

Create a player that is 7'10" and around 270-280 pounds.Make him a point guard with 99 in all attributes. He should beable to rebound, block shots, steal, score, and dish out assistsvery well. You should be able to get more than one legend by gettingthe fifteen steals and thirty assists.
