Basketball game featuring the famous coach of the NBA Los Angeles Lakers.

This is Sega's first stab at a 16-bit hoops game and is like many of its other titles from the period - that is to say, great idea but lackluster execution. The graphics are on the cartoonish side (even the digitized ones), the sound mix tends to grate on the ears, and the in-game cinemas tend to bog down the game right at those points where it needs to play fast. There's no point in wasting your time on this one with so many other superior titles available.
