In
NBA Inside Drive 2003
, you have more than two dozen
plays to choose from. Each team has its own default playbook
filled with plays similar to those used by the real NBA team.
The plays are organized by type into groups called play lists.
The name of the play list will help you know when to use the
plays in that group. For instance,
3-Point
plays help you get
off a good three-point shot,
Post
plays are ideal for getting the
ball to your big man down in the key, and so on.
