When your character finally calls him out on this (you've spent ''250,000 dollars cleaning up his messes'') he actually starts to ''blackmail you'' and act like ''you'' owe ''him'' for not going to jail due to ''accidentally'' killing someone in self defense in a robbery in high school in order to blackmail you into letting him "borrow" one of your cars. Him then dying in a car crash can come as a relief to pretty much ''anyone'' playing the game.

** The Rookie Showcase has you trying to perform and impress the teams so you can get a high spot in the draft. There's just one problem: every other player on your team is so geeked up to do the same they become utter ball hogs, going against five on one odds and not allowing you a look on even if they have no chance of scoring. Your only hope is to dominate defensively as well as work on getting high numbers in points and assists. Thankfully being drafted means your team is much more focused on winning games rather than putting on a one man show, allowing you to play more to your strengths.
