GET A TITLE: Entering the Playoffs
Did you come to play, or did you come to win? You can ball for the
love of the game, but when it comes down to it, it’s all about taking
home the crown.
On the Team Select Menu, you can put any team you want into the
playoffs and match them up against any other team.
Don’t let this kind of power go to your head.
To position teams in the playoffs:
1. Move up and down to display a team, and then press A to select
that team.
2. Move in any direction to highlight the position for that team,
and then press A to place the team in that position.
Note: If the team you are placing is already occupying a different
position in the playoffs, that team will simply switch places with the
one you are replacing. If the team you are placing is not already in the
playoffs, the team you are replacing will be taken out of the playoffs.
3. Press Y if you want to have the matchups randomly selected
for you.
4. When you are finished positioning the teams, press START
to advance to the next screen.
