NBA 2K12 Intro Opening Sequence: Kurtis Blow - Basketball [HD]

[@Aqwtiny]

New basketball fans will never understand how iconic rose passing it to jordan was for baseketball fans after the season rose had

[@n30x3l]

The one who guards rose, they will never know

[@-caesar3751]

Venthos he was never close to be Jordan lol

[@john94949]

I guess... For Bulls fans, anyway. San Diego's never had a team, not in my lifetime anyway. Hard to care too much for anything other than the MLB here

[@mspguide01]

Would’ve been better if Jordan passed it to Rose to represent that hes passing on the team leadership to him.

[@picklejuice4638]

@@mspguide01 Jordan's free throw dunk is too iconic to not be used in the intro

[@makavelixkam]

Will always be the best 2k intro. Hands down

2k13 & 16 definitely in the conversation ngl

[@vukicar]

I remember playing 2k12 with my best friend back in the day, when we both knew nothing about basketball. We played almost every single day until I moved to another country and haven't heard from him since. That was almost 7 years ago. That first two frames with the nba logo and the logos of the teams is so nostalgic and reminded me of that time. Time flies too fast.

[@marvinjones689]

Bro same best times ever

[@Ryan15beast]

Same my two brothers and I binged this game. This game along with Kobe had such an impact on basketball for us

[@JavierGarcia-nn6hw]

Never skipped the intro when playing this, time sure flies

[@cavettos7702]

Dang, I remember my game freezing everytime Dirk got his shot blocked, man the good ole days.

[@adolfotristan6736]

LMAOOO even the game said "hold the fuck up this don't even really happen playa"

[@carlyslebrown1601]

Seeing this intro after all this time... Man, the memories! 2012 was when I was most into basketball, so being reminded of Amar'e, Dwight Howard (when he was still at the Magic), Lebron at the Heat, and of course that final clip, Derrick Rose passing to MJ for the finishing dunk... I miss 2012, man.

[@ace-x6m]

The heat were way too over-hyped

[@masterofsimpson63]

favoite parts include- hakeem doing the dream shake on duncan, dirk on lebron, rose to mj almost made me cry imagine if they played togther. still the best intro ever

[@petedela1]

I remember, Christmas eve I was 14 and asleep and I kept thinking about when I begged my parents to get 2k12 but was quiet because I did not want my 10 year old brother to find out Santa was not real. I was hoping I got it and when I went downstairs on Christmas morning I saw a square package and I was so excited that I almost ditched my other presents to play. I wait patiently and go to my basement and pop 2k in. I hear the words "You playing basketball!!!" I continue as I see a healthy wade and Kobe walk side by side. Bill Russell Out rebounds Amare, even julius erving does the signature behind the backboard reverse layup!!!! and to make the intro so iconic, Derrick Rose who is next in line to be the best point guard in the league makes a pass to the greatest of all time. Then the jordan moment was played and I was hooked on the game for the rest of 2012, only this and minecraft I would play. What a childhood.

[@junny4523]

mc and 2k12 bro literally same childhood

[@Altered-Beast]

Man hard to believe this is reaching 10 years ago... This was when 2k was putting their absolute effort into games!!

[@rolandbuentello4139]

The greatest 2k intro of all time change my mind got goosebumps watching this going back to being a kid

[@lilibateni3267]

Has anyone noticed that there are literally no warriors players in this intro?

[@xabbitz6148]

2012 Warriors were pretty trash

[@emiliolee3499]

they were trash and young but built up to be a really succesful team.

[@shoukatsukai]

Well Monta Ellis on the Warriors wasn't that bad...

[@Janinho897]

Kevin Durant... hehehe...

[@GinoChaviano19]

BlitzTaifun / DragonScales Monta was in Milwaukee at the time

[@jordanverbeek5121]

0:51 There's a story where Red Auerbach noted that Russell wouldn't be a massive point scorer like Wilt. Red said, to some effect, "We're going to count each rebound as a score because it's just as important." The rest, as they say, is history.

[@NobleVagabond2552]

Nostalgia is literally pain

[@poocianpoo]

the memories...

[@xELITExKILLAx]

Literally just the Home Screen at the beginning of the video kills me. Seeing that screen and game library showing 2k12, MW2 and Black Ops.

[@spacejunk42]

Best intro in 2k history! ❤

[@averagegalaxygamer4430]

This was the last 2K game I actually grinded tf out of…I remember getting it for my birthday and skipped a week of school just to play it 🤣 great times

[@ThomasatSherwoodNissan]

12/13 years later… still got the same goosebumps as when I was a kid. Perfect in every way

[@azraisedme]

Greatest intro ever man i miss these days

[@tyreketibuana4788]

this waaay better than 2k13 intro, best intro in any 2k ball game! Really love how they compare the Hall of Famers against todays players and show the oldies some recognition!
