[@benwalch9480]

2017 playoffs

15 40 ovr all tatums vs 15 40 ovr curry’s

[@RicchmadeJay-p7z]

2005

[@kimpoiballedos3372]

I'm pretty sure the Lakers would've been a sure lock for the WCF if they had healthy Kobe (even on an injured Dwight and Nash) and if they didn't face that really deadly spurs in the first round

[@youngwave8015]

Swear

[@jacoblordbanemastersithdes3072]

No they wouldn’t have spurs would’ve beaten them no matter what that wasn’t going to happened

[@nicolasyl3498]

Yh and spurs would’ve won if lebron wasn’t plying for them. And pacers would’ve won the whole thing if they had better players. And lakers wouldn’t make the playoffs if Kobe and Dwight was injured the whole season

[@Noob_Guy2k]

No bro

[@gorjenchannel7956]

Nahh don’t expect spurs is menance that time

[@lukeweber2689]

First finals I watched was 08. I was only 7 and my brother loved Kobe. I just remember loving Lamar Odom. I became a Heat fan in 09 when all my friends and family in Miami were talking about Dwyane Wade. But the first playoffs where I watched every game was 2012. I loved the big 3 heat team, especially because i loved Chris bosh. Been a die hard heat fan through good and bad ever since.

[@joeyhernandez7908]

U remember 08??? I was 6 in 08 only a year younger but my first finals memory was 2012.

[@TheShnickster]

The first playoffs I remember watching was 1993, the end of the first Jordan three-peat. I'm aging myself on here, but hey, being young and watching Jordan play was incredible. I actually saw him play live once. It was in his return, he was still wearing 45. It was in New Jersey against the Nets and he only scored 19, but I love that I can say I saw him play live.

[@warrenshelly2620]

First playoffs I ever watched was when Kobe beat the Celtics in the finals. No cap

[@jaydenthegod4695]

2016 playoffs I began watching overall in 2008

[@HalftimeProductions]

Great one for sure

[@thesportskid6614]

My first playoffs was bubble so fun First I loved watching Giannis absolutely dominate Vucevic and the magic Also love the nuggets 3-1 comebacks and Jamal 50 point games and the lakers Heat series was just so fun to watch because of how hard Jimmy Buckets was playing every single minute and last but not least my favorite Luka game winner vs clippers because I’m a Mavs fan

[@kevinmao7559]

I remember the first series I watched, it was the 2008 NBA Finals. Watching Kobe, KG, pierce and these boys got me into basketball. I still remember those lakers Celtics battles as well as the Orlando magic with Dwight Howard

[@joshuaperez4677]

The first time I watch NBA was Stephen Curry and Warriors 2012 NBA playoffs vs Denver Nuggets me as 4 years old kid seeing Curry shooting 3’s all day I automatically love him. That how I became Curry fan and Warriors fan.

[@ItstheDubsWay307]

I had spurs winning it all this simulation. My First playoffs watching was 2019. Overall was 2016 but like a few games, But I was still in elementary at the time lol.

[@aK67895]

I swear this man should be a nba commentary

[@mikolaimooronomous3893]

This year right here 2013 was when I got into the NBA. Hasn't been a better season since in my opinion

[@jakeoppenheimer2172]

Not even about to cap. I called Lakers and Heat. That lakers team is one of the most underperforming teams ever. But you already know in 2K it's gonna be crazy. Love the vid Halftime!

[@Supermariohoops24]

(1) The Nuggets didn’t beat the warriors in real life (2) Rose didn’t play in these playoffs, he was injured (3) You should manage the ratings and team logos/courts for these too if possible. Klay was nowhere near an 86 overall in 2013.

[@TheRtate2]

That wouldve been epic if that laker squad made it all the way to the finals that year. Shame kobe tore his achilles and never played. Also how you get all the rosters? I might try to play these matchups myself in the playoffs

[@fastlaneRome]

The finals we expected back in 2013

[@camschells]

I'm convinced at this point that 2k hates the Spurs 😂

[@yucksmith-ez4bl]

LoL I was thinking the same thing

[@Bapestar234]

Nah this simulation was def one of the best

[@andrewchen9942]

The first playoffs I saw was in 2013, watching that Ray Allen shot really made me fall in love with basketball.

[@Infamouspolo]

I be so locked in on your vid’s bro I hate when they end

[@asiadouglas2117]

2016 playoffs cleveland comes back from a 3 1 lead and wins the championship against the golden state

[@aleksadjuraskovic7056]

2014 Playoffs. A Heat lifer since.

[@jadenpitt7893]

You should re-do the 1994 playoffs but WITH Jordan on the bulls

[@Just_Gaming2145]

Clutch Lakers Dwight Howard? Only in a HTP video

[@nkmade]

First playoff I remember was 2015, the year LeBron returned to Cleveland and the beginning of the Curry/Warriors dynasty (which I got tired of after 2017).

[@charleshan0207]

that Pacers v Heat series in 2013 was the first NBA basketball I watched... man what a time

[@jonathanfrimerman8855]

Imagine if the pacers went to the finals It wouldve been crazy if Kawhi went to finals vd team that drafted him

[@Just_Gaming2145]

Started watching in 2019. I watched the 2020 finals while I was on vacation. Disappointing for the Heat

[@avianjohnson5113]

This was the first playoffs I actually watched in basketball

[@jacoblordbanemastersithdes3072]

My first postseason was a spurs fan the 2012, but really payed attention in 2013. Everyone remember the power intro to the playoffs with will I am

[@elites4191]

The first playoff game I ever seen was the 2010-11 Season

[@only1xavierf248]

Heat vs spurs made me a fan of lebron but always a fun of tim Duncan

[@daviddelaosa6867]

The first playoffs I saw that I remember was when Miami went to the finals for the second straight year and beat the Thunder in 5. I was 11 years old and I was jumping for joy that my favorite team had won their 2nd championship 🔥🔥🔥

[@Rainstar_49]

First playoffs I watch was in 2013 so many good memories being a LeBron Fan and I was a Cavs fan rooting for Heat for a championship and it brings back so many good memories watching with my Dad on the television and now I'm a bucks fan cause Giannis being the best player in the league rn besides LeBron getting the scoring title at this year makes me feel happy about it

[@sconnieeee]

First series I remember was magic cavs 2009 lebron game winning three and I was hooked for life

[@jamaljones6568]

The 09 season watching a Heats game been a fan ever since

[@jamalsaid1610]

The first playoff game that I could remember I watched is the game 6 of Pacers vs Knicks in 2013. I remember that because of the block by hibbert. I became a Fan of the Pacers ever since.

[@jaimejones1590]

First playoffs I saw was the wade Shaq championship but the first one I understood and loved was 2010 Lakers championship

[@rawntoler7787]

I remember watching the 1996 NBA Finals Bulls vs Sonics!

[@ALV5252]

First Finals I noticed was the 2010 Finals, LAL vs BOS, a classic. It was aired in our local TV stations, and there were news coverage of it anywhere. But the first one I really watched was the 2013 Finals, that Ray Allen shot is still engraved in my brain.

[@clarkysparky]

You have perfected the playoffs in 2k videos

[@jamariondampier5757]

yoo i love ur videos keep up ur work

[@theodoreshao7042]

lessssssssssss goooooooooo!

[@HalftimeProductions]

!!

[@flashcactus3790]

This is the first season and first playoffs that I ever watched. It also solidified my pacers fandom.

[@ja.zyel1]

Vid idea you should put everyone in your suggested overall like what you think they should be rated

[@samstats8456]

My first game watching was game 7 spurs vs heat 2012-2013

[@1closer]

Great video man keep up the good ideas .💯

[@matthewcolosimo3781]

I hate how the cpu just throws a 1 handed full court shot with 2 seconds left instead of trying to throw a long pass and shooting a quick 3 closer

[@JC.Solos23]

here before it goes viral

[@HalftimeProductions]

Hope so🔥

[@JC.Solos23]

@@HalftimeProductions watching the vid right now. How did the lakers beat the spurs?!?!?!?!?

[@micahshaw5947]

Btw a suggestion to make the playoffs more realistic: Make the rosters as legit as possible, since stars such as Derrick Rose and Kobe Bryant didnt play in the playoffs irl Also, the Warriors beat the Nuggets 4-2 in the First Round, then lost 4-2 to the Spurs

[@dave_dynasty]

This simulation is the perfect timeline

[@FuriousFiveGaming]

NO LIE I actually said heat v lakers and heat in 6 at the very beginning of the video I’m not even kidding 😮

[@AWEhardy]

I thought I was tripping 💀 but the warriors won in 2013 they faced the spurs in the second round I remember because manu hit a game winner against them in like game 1 or 2

[@loganfisher5241]

I think my first time watching the playoffs was 2015 or 2016. And also I got OKC winning.

[@Collis77]

HTP, I love your videos. they’re great, don’t get me wrong. but do you think you could put in that little bit more effort and make them wear the kits they actually wore back then? instead of just simulating with simcast, jump into the game after selecting their kits at the start and then simcast

[@2SaucyOfficial]

The first playoffs I watch was 2020 I wasn’t interested in sports until I was like 11-12 I was a diehard kid and I still am but I’m interested in spots now

[@benwalch9480]

Final four thunder, warriors, heat and Pacers. Championship thunder vs Pacers. Thunder win.

[@ghariiscool]

here goes THUNDER IN 5 Clippers in 7 Warriors in 6 Spurs in 6 Heat in 5 Nets in 7 Pacers in 6 Knicks in 7 rd 2 Thunder in 5 Spurs in 7 Heat in 6 Knicks in 6 Conference Finals Thunder in 4 Heat in 6 Finals Heat in 5 edit damn what a way for my Knicks to go out...and this was probably the Finals result lakers fans had in mind in 2012-13 (except for the Lakers losing lol)

[@jaybucks4121]

The big 3 went crazy

[@Dre2fire]

My first time watching the playoffs is when Dame dollar hit the 3 vs the rockets

[@alawalter918]

I started watching full time games for the Blazers in the 07-08 season but been to games since the early 2000s. First playoff games I watched was probably 2006 and every series since then.

[@jaywilliams6452]

I started watching basketball around 2010-2011.

[@aquachopper3511]

11:35 Chris Bosh had 6 fouls, shouldn’t he have fouled out?

[@mikejavid]

Bosh fouled out of the ECF game and stayed in lol

[@kingjohnson6040]

My first playoffs was 2022, turned it on right for jimmy bricking that three😂

[@Noob_Guy2k]

Lebrons Knicks shot was deadass like pacers one irl

[@B0R00xD]

11:36 Chris Bosh's 6th foul and he still playing o_0

[@Andros666]

If Kobe and company were healthy could’ve possibly been 1-4 seed , I see this series in 7 games and tbh I’m not sure who would win but would’ve been the BEST finals ever

[@Dontusemyrealname]

All these sims on everyone’s channel don’t have any time outs left when there’s 3 seconds left to tie/win the game. Kills me how unrealistic it is. Having to throw the ball like a football 🏈 at the end to tie or win the game.

[@seansalmon6417]

First NBA game I ever watched was Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals

[@nathanielnemirovsky6343]

I love this idea!!!!

[@parkeryounce438]

I think Miami Heat vs LA Lakers will be in the Finals and Miami Heat win it.

[@paytonscott360]

2008-09 season was my first time ever watching the NBA, favorite player was Kobe, stuck with the Lakers ever since

[@kirkhilljr.5446]

2008 was the first that I fully watched and was engaged in

[@kirkhilljr.5446]

but 2004 was my first ever

[@jaylittle1807]

The nuggets never won that series against the warriors

[@nicksanchez6169]

Kobe never played this playoff series against the Spurs. He was injured and the Spurs swept the Lakers.

[@everythingcollectibles]

Al Horford didn’t wear jersey Number 42 with the Hawks, he wore jersey Number 15. Also, I predict in 10 years, you will be able to start in My League in any season that you chose from 1960-present so that jerseys, jersey numbers, logos, courts, and history will be all accurate! If BasketballGM can do it for free, then 2K can easily achieve this in the next decade. Mark my words.

[@eddyb-dj8tm]

My first time remembering the NBA playoffs was 05

[@owenshetter7481]

bosh fouled out but kept playing in the ecf😂

[@maolenvinpelaez2199]

Only the OG fans know that he did this simulation on 2K17 and the Pacers won.

[@JC-mb1jm]

My first playoffs that I remember vividly was in 2006 I was 13 and my heat won it all with my all time favorite d wade

[@King-vr7zp]

First finals I watched was the GSW vs TOR on 2019.It was the reason why GSW is my fav team and Curry is my fav player

[@greenspidey]

My first time 99 playoffs Knicks went to the finals lost to the spurs. I miss that Knicks team sprewell, Houston, Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, Marcus camby

[@sergirt3267]

How do you do that? I can't use 2013 teams unless I play an entire season, I mean I can't play the playoffs directly with 2013 teams

[@Just_Gaming2145]

I’m a Heat fan, but hate Lebron, and so I wanted to see him lose to Melo. That shot against the Knicks was crazy

[@ItzJelloPlayz14]

I became a warriors fan back in 14-15 when i mistaken them for the 76ers… they were battling Houston that game and they were wearing blue, so I became a warriors fan thinking they were the 6ers…

[@PICKLEDUDE.]

First playoffs I ever watched was 2016 but I was watching basketball since 2012

[@k1ngjamessyt]

The first finals I watched was the 06 finals w my dad when I was 4. After that season we would watch every Knicks game tg but the first time I watched the playoffs consistently was in 2009 and it was mainly the Celtics/Magic series, Cavs/Magic series, Lakers/Nuggets series and the 09 finals.

[@instinxtsweat8361]

Predictions: WCF: Thunder and Spurs ECF: Heat and Knicks Finals: Thunder and Heat Winner: Heat

[@2AMzizuka]

My first ever playoff series was when the Cavs came back from 3-1 down to win vs the Warriors

[@qdogthebeast23]

My first playoffs was the finals I watched the Heat vs Mavs in 06’ when D Wade was going crazy

[@TheyHateWuka]

how did you get custom rosters on playoffs mode

[@nathanhotte1998]

My first playoff was the 2008 NBA Playoffs when the Celtics win their 17th NBA Titles

[@kiethcenas6424]

First playoff that I saw in 2016 that Cleveland cavalier blew 3-1 lead vs gsw

[@marso_mercuryYT]

2019 NBA Playoffs, with the raptors winning

[@malikbrown4730]

First playoff game I remember is Sixers vs Lakers 2001

[@jdapaul1351]

Iirc, the Warriors did upset the Nuggets in 2013, winning in 6 games

[@kairchristianmalimit]

Correction, Nuggets didn't win the 2013 playoffs 1st round. The Warriors beat them in 6.

[@mikejavid]

The Warriors actually won the series vs the Nuggets 7:47

[@2SaucyOfficial]

I got the Heat and the runner ups is OKC

[@Batmangrant]

So lit
