I loved this game as a kid. It was definitely one of the things that got me into basketball and collecting memorabilia and going to games. Actually, just a couple games before the Pacers brawl with fans years ago, I got to meet a bunch of the guys on the team (most notably Jermaine O'Neal and Ron Artest) even getting my Authentic Ron Artest jersey, that I wore to all the games, autographed by him. I have a lot of good memories meeting the players before the games started during warm ups since we always got tickets within 5 rows of courtside. NBA Jam was always one of my favorite games because of how over-the-top it was. No crazy realism stuff, just lots of fun.

17:03 Yep, the rubberband mechanism is too obvious in some cases. If you are ahead by 1 or 2 points at the end of the fourth quarter, and there's time left, even if it's only 0.1 seconds, the computer will ALWAYS get a shot off and it will ALWAYS be successful. Usually it takes the players like 0.3 seconds to get off a shot, so it's really obvious the CPU is "cheating" here.
