    The 5 stats you need to get a 5 or more in are points, rebounds, steals, assists, and blocks.

    You can adjust sliders to make this much easier, if you do, I suggest increasing all of yours to 100, and making the CPU's zero except for the following stats (at 100):

    Take Inside Shots
    Take Close Shots
    Attack the Basket
    Look for Post Players

    This makes it so that they're way more likely to drive, making it easier to use my method to get your blocks. Also I kept Pass Accuracy at 50 for the CPU, since without it they kept turning the ball over preventing your player from getting the relevant stats.

    Turn manual substitutions on and pick your team and choose a player (I chose LeBron since I'm a Miami homer and his skillset, Kevin Durant and Bron I feel are the two best choices, but with the sliders it shouldn't matter too much). Edit the line-ups and put your player at Center or Power Forward.

    You now basically just want to play "linebacker" and keep moving back and forth in the paint (watch out for 3-second violations!) and start gambling, if you think they're about to shoot, jump ahead of time.

    Once blocks are done, you can move the player to Point Guard. On defense, play off your man and stay close to the rim. This will get you your 5 rebounds.

    Steals should be almost automatic, just mob the ball carrier on his way up. You will find it difficult to miss any reasonable shot, and the same goes for your teammates.

    Sorry if this is really long winded, I wanted to be thorough. Good luck!

    Note: I've been asked if the quarter length of the game matters. I had the quarter length at 5 minutes, and would not suggest going much lower as it can take some time to get all your blocks and rebounds.

    annndtpainI had the quarter length at 5 minutes. I would not suggest going lower than 5 minutes to make sure you have enough time to get the achievement. Going to add a note to the solution.

    annndtpainI would be very surprised if it did, but must admit that I did not test it.

    SamuelC4Had quarters set to 5 minutes, and came up short 1 block. Changed Durant's height to 7 foot 6 and got everything i needed in the first half! Great solution!

    It can also be done with a 2nd controller, I just did it a few minutes ago.
    Very important is that the quarters must be set to 5 min minimum.

    DHoward is a good choice to do it.

    Set NBA rules off and first score 5 or more ponits with Howard.

    After that dish out 5 assists. Setting score percentage to 100% makes it much easier though.

    After this go for 5 steals. Just stand still with the player controlled by your 2nd controller and keep smashing the X-button with Howard. Should be done in 1 minute.

    Same procedure with blocks. Place yourself in front of the 2nd controlled player and fire a shot with him. While getting in the air, also press Y with Howard and you will get the block.

    Rebounds can easily be done by just throwing the ball with your 2nd controlled player from beyond halfcourt. Every caught ball (even without hitting the board) is counted as a rebound.

    I managed to get this in the first quarter.
    By doing this you can also go for the 50+ points differential win.

    I did this with the Orlando Magic's Dwight Howard. Game has to be set at 5min quarters. Go to options before you start a quick game and change sliders in your favor and the opposite for the CPU.
    I do not believe this can be done against a 2nd controller, but I could be wrong, however I doubt it since alot of the achievements will only unlock against a CPU opponent.
    Make sure you max out steal attempts and you can easily get as many as you want w/ D. Howard. The only challenge is getting the blocks. What I did was Quit/Save after each one and reload the save.
    That way you do not waste time trying to do it all in 1 play through.
    I felt Howard is the easiest to pull this off with his long arms, speed, agility, & strength.
    For what it is worth I played against a bum team. The LA Clippers.
    The achievement will pop up once you unlock the final stat during gameplay which has to be all of the following:

    5 Points, 5 Assist, 5 Rebounds, 5 Steals, & 5 Block Shots.
