How to Play Lakers versus Celtics and the NBA Playoffs
Quick start
Begin with a Preseason Exhibition. On offence, use B to pass into open space, then hold A to aim a shot and release it to fire. A short press near the basket can trigger a dunk. On defence, use B to switch to the teammate closest to the ball, time A for blocks and use C steals sparingly to avoid fouls. Learn one team's signature moves before entering the playoff tournament.
Controls
D-pad: move the active player and aim passes or shots. Offence—A: hold to aim, release to shoot; B: pass. Defence—A: block; B: switch to the player nearest the ball; C: steal or swat. Start: begin or pause. Close-range attempts can trigger signature dunks.
