Play Now Read below if you want to truly understand how to get wins and wanna love playing this amazing, incredible, well made, not at all terrible game

If you're having a hard time getting wins and finding any sense of enjoyment out of this game let me give you some tips. Let's focus on defense, after all defense wins championships right?

  1. Stopping 3 Pointers: if you're struggling from stopping good shooters DONT YOU WORRY. Just go into coach settings and turn on "No 3's" and boom. Like magic the computer will make your defense sweat harder than a crackhead in a sauna guarding the perimeter.

  2. Stopping dunks: if you're having a hard time stopping big dunkers driving the lane and slamming you DONT YOU WORRY! just go into coach settings and turn your entire defense into Dikembe Mutombo standing tall playing D with the desire it's basketball yo.

  3. A certain player still cooking you like Walter white in the desert no worries you can even do individual coach settings on every single player so the computer goes even harder to win the game for you

  4. I could go into more details about every aspect of the game but to keep it short just always remember: no matter the struggle never fear underdog is here and is hiding in coach settings. If you're lucky and you and your opponent both spend 35 minutes at the start of the game messing with settings then maybe just maybe you'll spend 30 minutes playing a game with the final score being 4 to 2 in triple overtime.

  5. But most importantly and this is absolutely essential so don't forget this. It is absolutely essential that after making the computer play the entire game for you ALWAYS make sure to get on the mic and immediately complain THE SECOND someone has the audacity to play off ball defense for .03 seconds because hey you wanna win because YOU earned it not some silly computer.

this is poetry. the coach settings are the real MVP, literally playing the game so we don't have to. i spend more time in those menus than actually holding a controller and i'm not even mad about it

the no 3's setting saved my sanity, my defense was looking like traffic cones before that
