Beating my older brother at this game like once (even if he let me win) was one of my all time achievements for a pretty long while. This, like Madden 2001 also had a pretty freaking good custom character system.

A good casual basketball game. There is limited character creation content, and creating a custom team is also somewhat limited, but it's acceptable. The idea of playing with all-stars from other generations is pretty cool. A solid game.
