[. . . ] DEFENSIVE SETS Press the D-Pad to bring up the menu and then press the A, B, X, or Y button to select the corresponding defensive set. The default options are as follows: A B X Y Man-to-Man ­ The standard defensive set. Half Court Trap ­ Defenders try to trap the ball handler at the half-court line. Full Court Press ­ Defenders pick up their man in the backcourt. 2-3 Zone ­ New to the NBA in 2001-02. Two men guard the perimeter while three big men defend the low post. Advanced Defense Coach's Corner: Stealing the Ball Face up the ball handler by pressing the Left trigger and then press the B button to knock the ball away. This will give you a great chance to get the ball. SHOT BLOCKING: X button It's always nice to have an enforcer like Dikembe Mutombo or David Robinson in the middle. To swat the ball out of the air, time your jump with that of the shooter's by pressing the X button. Be sure to get to the ball while it's on the way up - if you touch it while it's on the way down, you'll be whistled for goaltending. LAST DEFENDER: Y button Pressing the Y button will put you in control of the player closest to the basket. This is a particularly useful button when you need to defend against the fast break, and is also helpful when you need to get control of one of your low post defenders in a hurry. Coach's Corner: Loose Ball To pick up a loose ball, simply guide your player to the ball and he will automatically pick it up. Once you've got the rock, get moving and press the advantage. Note: You can also select from a 3-2 Zone, a 1-3-1 Zone, or a Box-1 Zone in your defensive playbook. 18 19 OPTIONS MENU INTENTIONAL FOUL Need to stop the clock at the end of the game?Press the D-Pad to bring up the Play Calling Overlay and then press the Right trigger to make contact with the ball handler and commit the intentional foul. Note: The difference between calling for an Intentional Foul and committing one is that by calling for one, you tell the rest of your teammates to commit one as well. All teammates will be looking to commit an intentional foul until there is a dead ball situation. DOUBLE-TEAMING You can call for a double-team at any time by pressing the D-Pad and then the Left trigger. The nearest teammate will switch from his man over to yours and help tighten the defense on the ball handler. Presentation Codes Options Menu Customize the way you play NBA 2K2 prior to the opening tip with the Options Menu. Press the A button to cycle forward through an option; press the X button to cycle backward. NBA Rules Gameplay Every rule in the game is adjustable, or is able to be turned on and off. Simulation will emulate the real thing as accurately as possible, while Arcade mode is for the casual hoop fan.
