Whatever Happened to 'Game of Zones'?

Even with HBO’s storied legacy of producing numerous iconic television series that re-shaped the history the medium, the success of ‘Game of Thrones’ was something truly special with its epic storylines, complex characters and elaborate art direction.
The show was an immediate critical and ratings success. And, like with any such cultural phenomenon, there were numerous parodies of the series. Arguably, the most notable came from an unlikely source - the NBA - with the series, ‘Game of Zones’, which redefined NBA culture through the elaborate fantasy world of ‘Game of thrones’.

We need Game of Zones Back ASAP! I want to see how they handle the Nets. That would an arc by itself

[@blakethomas3001]

Not even the Nets could handle the Nets

[@johnmcswain3164]

I loved game of zones 😢

[@sharpbleydz500]

Either Game of Zones spinoff House of the Baskets could be a prequel that will feature stories from the past (i.e. Celtics Dynasty in the 50s and 60s, The Tales of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, multiple houses reigning supreme in the 70s, to the Lakers-Celtics rivalry of the 80s, The Bad Boy House, The Bulls dominance in the 90s, The Dream Team, how the Spurs gained control of the soul box, the three-peat Lakers and its fall, The Evolution of King James, and events leading to the start of Game of Zones) or a sequel that will focus on current stories.

It’s amazing how much the episodes still hold up. You see today’s stars that weren’t stars back then yet were featured. Plus the writing and wit was absolutely fresh and brilliant

I Miss Game of Zones 😭😭.

[@kashondemand356]

PLEASE BRING BACK GAME OF ZONES !!!!!! WE NEED A FUTURE 2023-2024 AND BEYOND VERSION !!!

Man, the whole Corona bubble would've been a great season...

[@ianraguse6455]

Paul George and the Clippers would be hilarious. Jimmy Butler and hot coffee...LeBron AD and their Lakers championship with Space Jam...🤣

I was wondering why the Raps nvr got some sort of celebration epsiode when they one the chip. When you hear the creators were 76ers fans, it makes sense

[@kingtommy1414]

Imagine if they had a series on HBO Max or something

[@Slixk2good]

I started watching Game of Thrones because of this and now Game of Thrones is probably in my top five shows of all time

[@jaliscox4156]

Bro the amount of work you must of put on this video I can only imagen. You the Real MVP!

[@bluex610]

The westworld idea seems great. Never seen the show but it's on my watch list. GoZ was perfect. Really was perfect timing with game of thrones and all the NBA drama that was happening. That's what makes the NBA standout are the stars and their personalities. NFL and MLB doesn't have the same notoriety.

Petition to bring back game of zones

[@a1d026]

Awesome work! Really hope we get Game of Zones back soon.

[@qtluv27]

Pleeeeeease 🙏🏾

[@joshhope8661]

I would love for Game of Zones to comeback or for their to be a new B/R show like Game of Zones but at least uses the same animation as what Game of Zones used!!!

[@joshhope8661]

I’d also like for their to be a toy line based upon some of the popular B/R shows and for the Game of Zones section to have a real life version of their NBA 1K board game IRL version that would be so cool!!!

[@donaterdosi618]

I’d kill to have an IRL 1K

[@joshhope8661]

If Game of Zones came back now, would DeMar Derozan be in possession of the soul box?

[@Dirtydoge414]

Game of zones was goated

[@joshhope8661]

I love and miss this show so much but Hero Ball is doing good and Gridiron Heights is very good for the NFL and The Champions is awesome for the soccer/futbol!!!

9:03 Bronny James in a nutshell

[@cjtiefighter8202]

Lebron got mad they were not making him look good anymore so he got it cancelled.

[@lordironhidex]

Bron living rent-free on your head, crazy

[@Swiggg]

Lebron probably had it canceled becuz it didn’t portray him as the person that lebron thinks that he is. The whole world acknowledges the goat is MJ…

[@youlookcute]

Nah it ended because the actual show it was based off ended

[@Cooe.]

Hero Ball happened. 🤷

[@thebluebeyond2329]

Hero Ball is so poorly managed that l forgot it even existed 😂.
