Their original basketball game was not good, agree. But....
Did you play it in the mid '80s? Once they went to action cards, and nerfed FGA for players that didn't shoot much IRL, keyed rebounding to (I think) rebounds to minutes played, among other changes I can't recall off the top of my head I thought it became a great game. I played many seasons with the Showtime Lakers solo and the stats, W-L records were nearly spot on.
