*1. Introduction*
*****************
Welcome to my NBA 2K faq. This is my first faq for the
Dreamcast. This game has been released everywhere. Let me say
that one of the reasons I bought was that NFL 2K was so much
fun. Another reason was that I haven't had a Basketball game
since NBA Jam:TE. Well anyways I hope you enjoy the faq.
