Thank you for downloading this game!!!

It was created by me, dw0914, and I can be reached for questions at dw0914@hotmail.com.

It features, rather than a game from the past, a possible futuristic game.  I traded some players around and so on, and it will not screw up your own roster.  The scenario is Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals, and the winner goes on to play in the NBA Finals.  It is between the Philadelphia 76ers and the New York Knicks.  For the 76ers, Iverson leads in scoring by a long shot.  For the Knicks, Ray Allen (one of the trades I made) and Latrell Sprewell lead, while most other Knicks haven't scored many.  I also created a rookie or two, such as Misael Henson.  The other current (meaning 2000-2001 season rookies) I downloaded and do not take credit for those.  The score is 69-67, with the 76ers leading, and 4:34 left on the clock.  You are set as the Knicks, but you can change teams if you like.  To access the file, use Windows Explorer and go into your EA Sports folder, wherever it may be, probably in Program Files on the C Drive.  Click NBA Live 2000 folder, then click the saves folder.  Create a new folder in saves called 634 and transfer all files you unzipped EXCEPT THIS ONE into the 634 Folder.  Then load the game and go into Files.  Under slot 634 will be FUTUREPHIVSNY or something like that.  Load it, and select whatever options you would like to have.  NOTE: The difficulty is set on Starter for all you average players, but I used Superstar mode to get the score where it is...that's why the score for both teams is rather low; the AI plays tough D on Superstar mode!

As New York:  You have the ball first.  Try to score a 2 or even a 3 with Ray Allen, who's hit 2/2 from beyond the arc.  Once you have the lead, try to hang on to it and head to the Finals.  Don't let your guard down, the 76ers have a very quick line-up, including Iverson and the 2000-2001 rookie point guard Claxton.

As "Philly": NY has ball, but you have the lead.  Basically play tough D and don't let the Knicks score...don't make offense your #1 priority, Iverson's out and tired so don't slip up, or you may have to watch the Finals from your bedroom in Philly!
