How to Dunk on NBA 08 PS2

NBA Live 08 for the PlayStation 2 allows gamers to play as their favorite NBA players in a variety of game modes, including "Slam Dunk Contest," "FIBA Tournament" and "Rookie Challenge." During team matches, players must control members of their team to perform defensive and offensive plays, such as blocking and shooting. Players who break away from defenders and get close enough to the hoop can also perform layups and slam-dunks.

Instructions

- 1
  Obtain possession of the basketball (if playing a team match).
- 2
  Dribble the ball to the "paint" area of your opponents' side while avoiding defenders. This can also be done by strategically passing the basketball to a teammate who is close to the hoop.
- 3
  Press the "square" button while in motion to perform a slam-dunk. If you are not close enough the the hoop, a jump shot will be performed instead.
- 4
  In "Slam Dunk Contest" mode, press a variety of different button combinations to execute different styles of slam-dunks. For example, holding R2 and L2 and pressing "circle" will perform an "under the leg" dunk.
