    too many posts on the main thread. I'd really like to play some of you people online, and I'm sure there are others out there. If any of you want to play. send me a message on the board or e-mail me.

    Post what system you play on and your online ID in this format:

    I went ahead and created a league.

    name: ClutchCity
    password: rockets

    I'd like to have it set up so we play 12 games in 8 weeks. The quarters are set at 5 min and the difficulty is All-Pro. To join go to http://www.espnvideogames.com/community/tour/tour_nfl/ and click join an existing league.

    Great. I'll probably sign up tomorrow since I'll be at the game tonight.

    I can;t access that site at work, so how do the leagues work? Does each person pick one team and stick with them?

    I signed up for the league as the Mavs, because I guess you got first dibs on the Rockets.

    Anyone else interested?

    I went ahead and changed the league to 6 teams over 4 weeks to have a trial run and find out a good way to run the league. So far I have the Rockets and Dan has the Mavericks.

    Dan,

    What time is good for you to play? I work 8-5, and I'll never play during a Rockets game.

    I'm the exact same as you.


    I'd say 6-9 PM weekdays on Rockets days off.

    Im thinking of getting this game. Could one of you guys just answer a few of my questions about it?

    1. Are the Rockets new jerseys in it?

    2. Is the create a player feature good. The last BB game I brought (Live 2002) was terrible and only let your create Aliens!

    3. Is this a true step up from say Live 2002....or should I just save my money?

    4. Is Ming in the game?


    I stopped buys basketball games because the quality of them just fell right away. But.....Im thinking about getting this one. Everywhere I have read says its the best BB game made so far.

    I dont care about the online play (Unless I can play people outside of Australia) and I dont care about the Franchise mode.

    Im just looking for a good basketball game for the PS2! :)

    Another thing about ESPN Basketball I found out today is that the Red and Gold jerseys are in the game. I was playing an away game in franchise mode against the Kings and the Rockets were wearing Red and Gold. Now if only I can unlock the red and gold uni for my 24/7 player. :)

    Thanks so much for your help. Looks like Im off to buy this game. :)

    Just a question about online play. I havent brought the adaptor because Im in Australia. Are you guys able to play people from other countries?

    I think you can, but I haven't asked anyone where they are from yet, so I can't confirm for you.

    Yeah, I went ahead and unlocked them today, though I kind of cheated. Basically just went with 1 minute qtrs on rookie. I just wanted to see the jerseys. They look pretty cool in the game. Almost threw me off since they only had the road ones. I was going to have the Rockets at home, but the retros wouldn't show up.

    The CAP isn't as good as last years 2K, at least IMO, especially when it comes to creating the body type for the player. It is still nice though. I don't spend much time with it though. Only ones I have made is my 24/7 player and my created Braggs and Wilks.

    I've tried to stay out of this thread since I don't....and can't play online.
