Personaly I have a Saitek P2500 I'm very happy with, so I'll toss in a rec for one of those 🙂 won't matter for USB 1 or 2 either should work fine for a gamepad

I have heard good things about the Xbox 360 controllers for PC. I would try mine, but they are wireless so I can't. You can plug any wired 360 controller into the PC via USB, you don't need to buy the controller that is packaged specifically for windows. The only difference between the pc version and the xbox version is that the pc version comes with a driver cd. You can get the drivers from the website here:

Yep. Although, I've never used it in NBA live. Just download the drivers Boobs McGee linked to, install them first, and plug in the 360 controller.

You might have to play with the settings for a little while to get it how you want it, but it works great as a PC gamepad.
