NBA 06
NBA 06 deviates from other traditional NBA titles with the addition of The Life mode. While it does include classic features such as Exhibition, Season, Franchise and Multiplayer modes, but The Life mode is a take similar to the MLB- The Show. The Life has the player take control of an NBA rookie right out of college and just being drafted. Like the MLB Show series, the player can only control his character and cannot control others on their team or make any management decisions. The players role of the team will be determined by their performance on and off the court. The better the player is at playing basketball and being a teammate, the more likelier they will be a huge part of the team...
