Open Button

Power Button

When using a Visual Memory Unit (sold

separately), insert it into Expansion Socket 1

of the Dreamcast controller if you wish to

use VMU Play Calling.

When using a Jump Pack™ (sold separate-

ly), insert it into Expansion Socket 2 of the

controller, the Jump Pack does not lock into

place and may fall out during game play or

otherwise inhibit game operation.

Blood rushes to your headas you

get up from the final timeout.

The crowd is deafening, but you block it out,

because quite simply - it’s crunchtime, and you want the rock.

6 seconds left in the game,

and you’re down 1. You come off the pick and grab the inbound pass,

and immediately you’re double-teamed.

Fake left with a quick step, but spin right and sprint down the sideline.

You take a look at the clock and it’s down to 3.

There’s one man between you and the basket.

Like a ray of light, you notice the weight of his body shift ever so slightly to your

right, it’s your only chance so you crossover leftleaving

him on his heels, pull up with 1 on the clock and launch the trey... it’s up at

the buzzer, and... IT’S GOOD, IT’S GOOD!!!

Are you the heir apparent?

SEGA Sports NBA 2K uses “radial menus.”

This new, innovative menu system will allow

you quicker overall navigation. What used to

be tedious is now effortless. Press and hold

your analog stick in the direction of any

option you want, then press Ato select the

CONTROL SUMMARY

NBA 2K is designed with analog

functionality in mind. Analog not only

gives you a much fuller range of

motion, but also adds to the overall

depth of the game due to the level of

precision control it provides. Note that

the controls and tips offered below

refer to NBA 2K’s default controls, but

alternate control schemes are available

as well - in particular, one with D-Pad

as the primary control for all you

old-schoolers.

Directional Pad (D-Pad)

Spend less time setting up the game and more time playing it.

If at any time you need help navigating through

the menus, press Yand a Help Screen will

2KBasketball_Manual 2/25/00 11:46 AM Page 4

Turbo R

Turbo is just like it sounds - it makes you go faster. When the turbo button Ris pressed,

your player will pick up the speed and his momentum will carry an effect into select, sub-

sequent moves.

Layups and Dunks X

Both layups and dunks are also on the “shoot button”, and it takes a little practice getting

used to knowing what kind of shot will be triggered when pressing X.The basic rule is

that if you are moving to the basket you will dunk or layup. If you are standing, you will

perform a jumpshot. The exception is if you find yourself directly under the basket. In

this case, players who are able to jump right up and dunk the ball, will do so. Others will

put in a layup off the glass. Each NBA player has unique dunk and layup skills.

Therefore different players will be able to perform different driving moves (dunks/layups)

depending on where on the court they are. Also, the better dunkers will be able to dunk

from farther away than other players. In NBA2K, players DUNK first and LAYUP later.

Meaning, if they CAN dunk from a particular spot on the floor they will. Otherwise they’ll

drive in for the layup.

Shooting X

The way to shoot is to press and hold the Xbutton. When you have reached the top of

your jump, release the button to release your shot.

NOTE: If you do not let go of the shoot button, you will land with the ball and receive a traveling violation.

For maximum shot percentage, hold down the Xbutton and

release it at the peak of your jump – the better the shooter

you’re controlling, the more forgiving the timing.

TIP

Experiment with your favorite players in Practice Mode to find

out just exactly what they are made of.

TIP

Basic Offense

Here are brief descriptions of all your fundamental offensive functions.

Directional Passing A

You can pass to any of your teammates by pressing the analog stick in the direction of

the intended player, and then pressing A.

Icon Passing L

Use icon passing to guarantee that your pass goes to the intended receiver. If you

hold down the Ltrigger, pass icons will appear above each of your teammates.

When you’ve located the player you want to pass to, press the corresponding button.

It’s worth noting that the following buttons will always pass to the following player

positions: APoint Guard (1 spot)

BShooting Guard (2 spot)

XSmall Forward (3 spot)

YPower Forward (4 spot)

RCenter (5 spot)

NOTE: Memorizing each button/position assignment will help you get the ball to the player you are looking for,

evenifheisnotimmediatelyvisible.

Crossover Dribbles B

Some people use these simply for style points, while others who know how to use

them can effectively “fake out” their defender, by faking one direction and going anoth-

er. Crossovers also give the ball handler the opportunity to change the ball from one

hand to the other as a protection technique.

Basic Offense

2KBasketball_Manual 2/25/00 11:46 AM Page 6

98 For an extra advantage while backing down your player L,

try pumping the Turbo button Reach time your player

lunges back - this will give you extra effectiveness. Pumping

turbo also works for the post defender. To keep the poster out of the paint, pump the

Turbo button when the poster “throws” his weight at you.

Don’t forget the new NBA post up rule. You can only have your back to the basket for 5

seconds. Bang it in quick and get the shot off or the ref will blow the whistle.

Advanced Offense

Backing Down L

Are you a fan of the post up game? Well NBA2K will let you bang it in just like the pros.

To muscle your way into the paint, hold down the Lbutton, while you move your player

toward the basket. Of course, there needs to be a defender there, or you won’t have

anyone to post up with. When in a post up battle your players physical size, strength

and post up skill, versus the defenders, will determine whether you’ll get the defender

moving backwards or if you’ll find yourself banging against a brick wall. Once you

work your way close enough to the basket, press the Shoot button to put up a classic

low post hook.

Spin out of Backdown Mode

When in Backdown Mode, release the Lbutton and press the analog toward the basket

to perform a spin out of backdown move.

NOTE: The success of your spin move will be based on how favorably the ballhandler’s speed compares to the

defensiveplayer’s.

Pivot Mode

If you do not move your player upon receiving a pass, he will be in Pivot Mode. He will

automatically attempt to protect the ball, by shielding it with his body while your stick is in

neutral. Don’t wait too long however, because he won’t be able to shield them off all day!

TIP

Alley-Oops D-Pad +R

Press D-Pad then the right trigger button Rto throw your teammate an alley-oop.

Two things are certain with alley-oops:

1. You will ALWAYS throw an

alley-oop pass regardless of

whether or not your player

is in position to finish the play.

2. An alley-oop pass will always

be passed to your teammate

that is closest to the basket –

so check to see who it is and if

he has an open lane.

Advanced Offense

If your player wants you to throw an alley-oop pass, you will

see him wave his hand while running toward the basket.

However, it is not necessary for him to wave his hand for you to complete the play.

TIP

2KBasketball_Manual 2/25/00 11:46 AM Page 8

Pump Fakes

To get an open shot, tap the Shoot button Xand pump fake the defender into the air.

An “uncontested” shot has a much higher probability of going in, so if you wait until your

defender is on his way back down before you initiate your shot, your odds of making the

shot will greatly improve.

Calling for Pick

Try having a teammate set a pick for you to get that pesky defender off. To do this,

hit the D-Pad , and then the Ltrigger button – your nearest teammate will create a wall

for you to go around to shed your defender.

To perform a “Show and Go”, try doing a pump fake, then

when your defender has gone for the fake, you can quickly

drive around him to the basket.

NOTE: A show and go is only possible, if you have not already used your dribble.

TIP

If you have memorized which plays are on which button, it is

not necessary to even view the menu. Hit the D-pad and the

corresponding button immediately afterwards, before the menu comes up.

TIP

XAB

Playcalling

Each team has 16 plays in their playbook.

You can select from (4) plays via the in-game

playcall menu, which is brought up by pressing

the D-Pad . From there you call the play you

want with the corresponding button. If you want

to assign different plays to the playcall menu, you

do so in the coach/playbook menu. While in the

game press D-Pad and then A,B,Xor Yto

activate a particular play.

2KBasketball_Manual 2/25/00 11:46 AM Page 10

1312 Pass Out of Shot

Try passing out of your shot by pressing the shoot Xbutton, then pressing the pass A

button while on your way up. NOTE You MUST roll your finger from the shoot button

over to the pass button to execute this move – if you release your finger from the shoot

button, the shot will be released before you can pass the ball.

If you can draw an extra defender

to you by initiating a jump shot,

passing out of your shot to the

open man is extremely effective

way of exploiting the defense.

Touch Passing

Pass Athe ball to your teammate. Then before he receives the ball, tap the pass button

again to execute a touch pass to the next player you want to pass to. Touch passing is a

useful technique for those who can quickly anticipate where they want the ball to go to

next.

Clearing Out

After you grab a rebound, if you repeatedly press the Bbutton BEFORE YOU LAND,

you will “clear out” defenders around you. This is a good way of protecting the ball from

defenders trying to swipe at the ball as you land.

2KBasketball_Manual 2/25/00 11:47 AM Page 12

Defensive Sets

Options available are: Full Court Press, Half Court Press, Half Court Trap, and intentional

foul. Defensive sets works in the same way the offensive playcall menu work. Press

D-Pad to bring up the menu and press A,B,X,Yto select the defensive set.

➪Full Court Press. Defenders pick up their man AT THE INBOUND.

➪Half Court Press. Defenders pick up their man at the half court line.

➪Half Court Trap. Defenders try to TRAP the ballhandler at the half court line.

➪Intentional Foul. Instructs players on your team to try to foul the ball

handler quickly, to stop the clock.

Basic Defense

The following are general descriptions of the basic defensive controls.

Basic Defense

Basic Defense Advanced Defense

The following are general descriptions of the advanced defensive controls.

Advanced Defense

Swapping A

Swapping allows you to switch into the player closest to the ball handler. The purpose of

swap is to always give you a chance at making the defensive play by selecting the player

with the best chance of stopping the offense.

Blocking X

Blocking is an effective way of stopping a ballhandler’s shot from going in the basket. If

you are in front of an opponent that is attempting a shot, pressing Block Xwill either

knock the ball down, or diminish the probability of the shot’s success.

Last Defender Y

This will give you the player closest to your opponent’s basket. This is a particularly use-

ful button when you need to defend against a breakaway basket, and you only have 1

man back. It is also useful, if you simply want to gain control of one of your low post

players in the half court.

Facing Up

This is the best position you can be in to stop a player from driving past you by essentially

making you a “bigger” object to get around. The disadvantage is that you have slower

movement in this lateral position, however you can compensate for this by simultaneously

pressing Turbo R.

Defending Passes

You can actually jump in front of passes to deflect them away from their target and into

your own possession – however, you need to be quick to get the loose balls.

Stealing B

Press Bto execute a steal – you must get you hand on the ball to knock it away, or else

you’ll be called for a reach-in foul.

For the best chance at getting a steal, try facing up the ball

handler by pressing the Left trigger L, and then Steal B

and get ready to hit your outlet man for the fastbreak. You can also attempt running

steals, which knock the ball loose.

TIP

TIP To pick up a loose ball, simply guide your player to the ball

and he will automatically pick it up.

Intentional Foul

Whether your opponent is going to make an easy, uncontested basket, or you just need

to stop the clock, you can do so by executing an intentional foul – this is done by first

holding down the Rbutton, and then pressing the Lbutton while making contact with

the ball handler.

NOTE: The difference between calling for an I.F. and committing one, is that by calling for one, you’ve told the rest

of your teammates to commit one as well, so whoever is most able will do so. All teammates will be in I.F. mode

until either a foul is committed or there is a dead ball situation, in which case you would have to call for I.F. again

toreinstatetheorder.

Calling for Double Team

You can call for a double team at any time, by pressing the D-pad, and then the Lbutton.

The nearest teammate will switch from his man over to yours and help tighten the

defense on the ballhandler.

Defending the Post. To keep a posting player from backing

you in, try pumping turbo at the same time the poster is

throwing his weight at you.

Free Throws

NBA 2K has developed an innovative, new Free Throw system. The trick to successful

FT shooting is to press both trigger buttons Land Rsimultaneously and also at the

same level for each. When you have managed to line the arrows together over the bas-

ket, press Shoot Xto release your shot.

NOTE : Each player does their signature Free Throw routine, however, if you want to bypass this and go straight to

the shot, press your triggers to bring up the FT arrows.

If you don’t squeeze both triggers AT THE SAME TIME, your

shot will be off. You cannot press one down, then try to

compensate with the other trigger - the two must become one. Daniel-san!

TIP

You can take a created team through Season mode or Playoffs.

TIP

Game Set Up

Exhibition

Choose any two teams in the league and take it out on the court.

Quick Start

Go straight to the tip-off with two randomly selected teams.

NOTE: The team you control will always default to the home team.

track your player and team stats, and let you see how you stack up against the rest of the

league. Enter a User Profile, and your own personal records will be kept as well.

NOTE: Before you tip off your season, make sure you have a VMU to save it out.

Custom Season

There’s nothing like playoff basketball. Playoff mode let’s you bypass the

regular season yet still gun for the prize. The structure follows NBA regulated

rules, but you can customize each series to be either 7, 5, 3 games or 1.

Playoffs

In practice, all 5 of your starters are going to be on the sideline at the beginning, so that

you can practice with anyone (and it is easy to have more controllers come in). If players

want to change who they are practicing with, they can go to the substitutions menu.

Having a bunch of players in practice also lets people practice icon passing and touch

passing, and makes it a great place to practice pass out of shot.

NOTE: You can practice with any player you want, by selecting them off the Pause menu.

you can mastermind it here. Scale each individual body part, shape the face any way

you want, and distribute the attribute points to find that perfect fit for your team.

Preset Players

To make things a little easier for you, there are 3 groups of pre-set attributes laid out for

each position available. Whether you’re looking for that prototypical point guard or that

defensive minded big man, you can find them here. If you want, you can simply use their

attributes as a base, and then modify the points as you see fit.

NOTE: You also have 10 additional points to distribute where you want.

NBA Rules

Every rule in the game is adjustable, or is able to be turned OFF – so check them out,

you may want to make your “own rules”.

NOTE: The NBA has implemented new rules for the 1999-2000 season, and these are incorporated into the game.

Practice

NBA legends weren’t built over night – hey, it might take 100 jumpshots a day! The Shot

Rater will help you perfect your form and timing. In fact, you can refine all aspects of your

offensive game, either solo or with a buddy, in the exclusive SEGASports arena.
