NBA Showtime: NBA on NBC

Look, Ma, no rules! Despite the stuffy name, this is one b-ball game that feels more like the playground than the pros. Sure, all your favorite players are on call (complete with oddly oversize heads), but teams consist of only two guys each, it’s OK to dribble out of bounds, and there ain’t no stinking refs to whistle foul even when you blatantly plow over your opponents. Don’t fret about breaking the rules of physics, either. Whether you play as Kobe Bryant or Atlanta mascot Harry the Hawk, you’ll perform astounding acrobatic feats that would make Jordan jealous (such as somersaulting with your sneakers above the rim to slam a funky dunk). Best of all, if your game is really smokin’, the net bursts into flames.
