Gameplay
The game can be played in various ways: players could play against each other, or against the computer. Games against the computer were divided into two modes, “Exhibition” or “Playoffs”. Players could pick from one of the 16 teams that competed in the 1991 NBA Playoffs (up from 8 in the first game). Rosters featured many top NBA stars of the time, including Michael Jordan. Games could be configured for 2, 5, 8 or 12 minute quarters. New to the series is a star underneath the player to let users easily know which player they are controlling.[1]
