    Debuting in this '03 renewal is the EA Sports "freestyle" control. Wihout question, it WILL change the way you play basketball games...forever. [Nov 2002, p.88]

    The freestyle controls are excellent and the graphics are easily the best of any basketball game available for the GameCube.

    The fast pace, smarter computer-controlled players, and freestyle control system make it enjoyable at times, although it also makes you think that such things might have been better suited for the next version of "NBA Street" than a game with pretensions to simhood.

    Gameplay and graphics are mediocore when compared to EA's football games. The potential for this game is nowhere near tapped.
