Creative director Trey Smith said that the second-t'-last team that players will face in the Classic Campaign mode -- the game's "worst-t'-first ladder tournament," which pits players against a series a teams -- will be decided based on who wins the 2010 NBA championships. Then, the final match will feature the iconic duo.
