Between a fleshed-out My Player career and an Association mode to run across several seasons, this edition of Visual Concepts' NBA simulation reveals itself over time. Building a legend from scratch, fine-tuning a franchise and challenging others online keep the urge to return alive. Its simulation depth is still cited as a benchmark for virtual basketball.
