NBA on ABC Finals Intro With Roundball Rock

[majiicpu3D]

AWFUL

[Knightmessenger]

Don't some versions have a distinctive 3 note opening? Seems to be common with anything on NBC. 

[kite0impulse]

This song could be used on pretty much any basketball video and it would fit.

[stynred]

"your watching the NBA... on NBC"

[rickyony]

Watch the lightning at 0:09:

Perfect sync with the music.

[Berpatch]

wow! The theme song was just about right with the highlights/

[Ian2forget]

2:39 fucking fags

[marsrox2]

@Ian2forget r they "fags" bcuz they beat LA?

[Ian2forget]

@marsrox2 You are replying to an 11 month old comment. look in the mirror and evaluate on life right now.

[marsrox2]

@Ian2forget i honestly dont care if this comment were 2 b from 4 years ago. dont tell me 2 "evaluate on life" bcuz i wanted 2 voice my opinion

[Ian2forget]

@marsrox2 Umm what?

[marsrox2]

@Ian2forget ur confused, not surprised. so never mind. i just thought i'd come back at u just bcuz im a Celtics fan

[Ian2forget]

@marsrox2 Oh okay that explains everything then.

[marsrox2]

@Ian2forget im guessing ur calling me a "fag" in that case. if u r, couple things 4 u: stupid move & way 2 b a tough guy

[Ian2forget]

@marsrox2 I never called you a "fag". I said that explains everything. You are a celtics fan and got upset when I called them "fags." so that explains it. It's over just like the Celtics and the Lakers season this year so this conversation is over.

[marsrox2]

@Ian2forget i thought u were implying something there. i apologize & ur rite, just like how the C's & Lakers ended, this will come 2 a close as well

[Barteekkk]

epic

[superkrex]

It's just not the same unless its on NBC

[stynred]

This is the national basketball anthem.

[stynred]

LA back to back!

[TheSumo390]

Lol, even though they won the title they can't stop mentioning LA.

[Jhyphi]

Very well done.

I love the NBA on NBC theme song. Much better than the crap that ABC uses.

[SouthshoreVice]

I love how at 1:40 Jordan is all like, "u mad?"

[stynred]

awesome awesome awesome awesome, my my god that was awesome, i was so into it. man never get high watching this lol

[jmarkhinton]

NBA on ABC/ESPN = epic failure!

ESPN on ABC = also epic failure!

[DENNISPUPPY]

big time

[Darkwyng99]

@jmarkhinton

I agree with you. Now, ESPN is like AIDS to sports. Anything it touches, it ends up douching it up for everyone.

[madmaxninja08]

HAHA I love the way you said that. That put a bright smile on my face. Great job.

[mephistos57]

NBA historical moments-montage is about the only good thing ABC has going for it . everything else plain SUCKS!!!---------- Sync up is great man do one for 09-and so on.

[Lawless66007]

Real good vid. The part that made it for me was @ 1:32 when they showed Jordan. To me, that's who I think about when I hear this music. It took me back to the 90's LOL.

[DL212]

perfect sync up

[jerseyware]

This vid is absolutley awsome!!

[cowboyzsuk81]

who ever synced this with the video did an excellent job

[horatiocaine1988]

Manu pumping his fist at the last riff was the icing on the cake.

[chalkbodyoutline]

ABC does NBA wrong on so many levels. That intro video is the only good thing they got going. Mark Jackson is HORRIBLE!!! The other announcers are just plain bad. And I can practially see the corporate memo when they cut to commercial breaks reading "Play nothing that could be construed as hip hop". Who do they think is watching this stuff??

[alphalink]

I laid off watching NBA after Jordan retired, but I quit after it went off NBC

Biy I miss that theme...

[tigerwoods232000]

the NBA was boring for awhile after Jordan but you should check it out now. I think the league is going through another great era now but obviously nothing will match the Bulls of the 90's

[lankanboy28]

this is my jam WOOO HOOOO

LOL

[SparzWizard]

I love this theme :D.

[madmaxninja08]

Go listen to your gay hip hop shit cause you're a gutter trash shit faced scum.

NBA on NBC is for high cultured people.

[justboycrazy45]

damn good job on this video!

[DJKhrome]

Let me tell how good the NBA On NBC theme is. My wife who is a casual fan of the NBA at best KNOWS THE THEME SONG WHEN SHE HEARS IT! ABC is only being stubborn about this because they know if any NBA fan gives them shit about "Roundball Rock" , they can use the power of Disney to ignore them! If it weren't for "Mickey", they would've already adapted this theme! All of their wannabe NBA themes suck-PERIOD!!

[Arun999]

whoever did this vid did an awesome fucking job.

[PresidentRhapsody]

This is how it SHOULD HAVE been when it transitioned over to ABC. Damn fine job, Nate.

[BelalNabi1994]

Correction: 1:37

[BelalNabi1994]

At 3:37, Jordan actually banked in the shot in real life. In this video, it showed him swishing it.

Just saying lol

[Booster37]

Yes, this worked out pretty nicely.

nochey, all he did was make a video. You don't have to criticize him just because of that. No one ever said that it would happen. It's a thing called wishful thinking.

[MaverickBradMPX]

Dr. J was sick. Even now that underhanded reserve layup is one of the coolest shots I've ever seen.

[DJRckwl]

Thanks Nate for righting a wrong.

It's like you made our wish a reality.

This reminds me of when CBS brought back their old NFL Today theme music, remember?

[natetijion]

They paid someone to come up with a theme for their basketball coverage, and they pay to have cheesy pop hits played throughout the broadcasts. They could purchase the rights to it. They just don't want to. In fact, Tesh has said that he tried to sell the rights to ESPN/ABC and they turned him down.

[nochey78]

they don't want to because they're trying to do their own thing..they're trying to be nba on abc/espn...not a retread of nba on nbc..besides,who really tunes in to a basketball game because of a musical theme anyway???

don't get me wrong,i liked the nba on nbc theme.i also liked the nba on cbs theme,but that's the past..so just get over it...

[amarrao95]

I don't tune into games for the theme music, but I do believe with all my heart that the NBA on ABC is the WORST FUCKING INTRO MUSIC OF ANY SPORT ON TV.

As someone else aptly said somewhere else, that NBA on NBC music always got you pumped up for a big game.

[nochey78]

@amarrao95

i agree...the NBA on ABC music does suck....but i watch for the basketball mainly..so i'm able to deal with that..

it's true that the NBA on NBC music always would get you pumped up for a game...but what kept you pumped up????/....

the game its self

[DJKhrome]

YOU don't have the right to tell anybody to get over anything, You have your opinion, so does everybody else, nobody is right or wrong when it comes to this, so you need to respect that!

[nochey78]

what i choose to respect is my decision..not yours or any one elses..

but my point was the "roundball rock/nba on nbc" ship has sailed.. nbc did a great job with the nba but it's over...so it's time to move on and enjoy the games for fuck's sake.

no one i repeat,no one tunes in to a basketball game simply for the theme.....

GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madmaxninja08]

You're a faggot cock sucker. . NBA on NBC IS what the NBA is all about you dick sucking faggot son of a whore.

YOU go to Hell cause you're nothing but a faggot queer and is anyone that does not want the NBA on NBC to return.

[nochey78]

wow are you stupid!!!!!!

when exactly did i ever say i didn't want the nba to return to nbc????

oh,that's right ... i didn't.!!!!!!

if you want to know what i think,ask me instead of assuming shit you fucktard sack of shit...

of course i'd like to see the nba go back to nbc...but guess what????....it's not gonna happen anytime soon....so why keep bitching over it????

[madmaxninja08]

u faggot son of a whore. the nba on abc contract will expire in a few years. So that means there is a high chance based on public demand it will return to nbc.

So fuck yourself you cock sucking faggot dick sucking nba on abc lover. Your father is a faggot.

[nochey78]

guess what moron???? the nba renewed it's contract with abc earlier this year....

which means they will have the nba rights until 2016...

if you don't believe me look it up for yourself...so you can actually have some facts,instead assuming shit like the glorious dumb fuck that you are!!!!!

[nochey78]

public demand????......LOL!!!!!!!

if public demand had anything to do with it,the NBA broadcasting rights never would have left NBC after 2002...but that did'nt happen..wanna know why????......BECAUSE ABC SHOWED THE DAVID STERN THE MONEY YOU FUCKING IDIOT??????..

public demand didn't mean shit when the nba re upped with abc earlier this year..wanna know why.????..BECAUSE ABC SHOWED DAVID STERN THE MONEY YET AGAIN!!!!!!

[nochey78]

AND IF ABC SHOWS DAVID STERN THE MONEY AGAIN IN 2016,THE NBA RIGHTS WILL STAY WITH ABC....THAT'S A FACT!!!!!

public demand don't mean shit....money means EVERYTHING!!!!!

learn a thing or 2 about the real world you fucking nimrod!!!!

oh...and one more thing.... YOU LOSE!!!!!!

[madmaxninja08]

haha you faggot cock sucker, it's called law of demand. where there is a demand, there is a market. so fuck yourself cock sucking mickey mouse fag.

[nochey78]

law of demand????

do you know anything about macroeconomics at all....you'd know that it is determined by the seller and the consumer...

in this instance the seller was the NBA,and the consumer was ABC....the NBA had a product to sell to the highest bidder,and guess what?????...ABC bid the highest amount for it....therefore, they got the broadcasting rights....what part of that do you not understand?????..

and the same thing happened earlier this year when the NBA re upped with ABC..

[madmaxninja08]

HAHA you're a faggot just like your queer father.

MOST fans want the NBA on NBC rather than have it on ABC, cause they have sophisticated tastes.

ABC bidded for the NBA cause they thought they would make it profit but each time they ended in loss.

[nochey78]

YEAH RIGHT IDIOT!!!!!

question....if ABC was losing money on the IT'S NBA broadcasting rights,then why in the hell would they renew those rights and lose even MORE MONEY???

get back to me when you can provide me with some proof of those claims....proof that i'm pretty sure you wont be able to provide me with.

[madmaxninja08]

ROFL you're dad must be a pedophile doing u up the ass.

ABC admitted that the NBA has been a loss on its network. The viewership has declined since 2002. This means NBA on ABC is shit .

You are a faggot supporter of NBA on ABC. This means you in fact are a son of a whore.

[nochey78]

once again...where is your proof of that?????

[nochey78]

ROFL!!!!....YOU ARE AN ILLOGICAL MORON...

i'll ask you again.....if the ABC has lost money on it's NBA coverage then why in the hell did they renew with the nba earlier this year

?????

or maybe you have no clue what you're talking about????

and for the record,i don't like the NBA being on ABC.,...

i don't know what ever gave you the idea that i did..

especially when i stated that in a earlier post.,

[nochey78]

when NBC started losing money on its NBA coverage they didn't renew..

so if what you say is true about ABC losing money,they wouldn't they have followed suit and NOT RENEWED?????

[nochey78]

back up what you're saying with some facts or SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

by the way,i've tried googling some articles about abc losing money on it's NBA coverage,but i can't find any...

hmm.....i wonder why????

[nochey78]

and on top of that you went totally off the subject ya fucktard....

ABC HAS THE NBA BROADCASTING RIGHTS BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE HAD THE GUTS TO OUT BID THEM....it's really that simple...

the nba isn't leaving abc anytime soon,so either deal with it,or just only watch games Broadcasted on TNT...

[jimmyd5685]

@natetijion this ABC shit...this ain Bulls/Knicks

[nochey78]

now,i enjoyed the nba being on nbc as much as anyone.but it's not going back to that network anytime soon...so just get over it already..

[natetijion]

No one is saying that it's going to go back to NBC. We're just saying use the darn theme music every basketball fan loves!

[nochey78]

abc can't use that theme because they don't have the rights to it...

[madmaxninja08]

Your mother is a whore. You are just some faggot that support NBA on ABC. Sooner or later the contract will end. 

[nochey78]

@madmaxninja08 are you fucking literate????

i said quite a few times that i don't like nba on abc....WHAT PART OF THAT DO YOU NOT FUCKING UNDERSTAND???

all contracts end????....really now???... i thought they just go on and on forever and ever....

i suppose you're gonna tell me water is wet next aren't you????

[nochey78]

@madmaxninja08

sooner or later the contract will end....is that all you've got????

what if the ABC decides to renew the contract????...then what are you gonna say???

[nochey78]

@madmaxninja08

oh,and i almost forget.... LMAO@ YOU for rebooting an argument that i destroyed you in over a year ago!!!

get a life loser!!!

[Spikorama]

Its actually crazy how well these work together especially the very end with the celebrations

[gopsu1992]

Awesome!! Nice Work!!

[maglile]

its stolen but video matches with the song completely great complication

[GHSINDIAN]

srry son this was a commercial u didnt make this

[natetijion]

I never said that I made the video...look at the description "I made a video of what the NBA on ABC finals intro could be like if they only used the NBA on NBC/Roundball Rock theme we all know and love." It's the NBA on ABC video intro using Roundball rock...

[natetijion]

I just added another version of this. Same Lakers/Celtics 2008 NBA Finals theme going on.

[rhomdizzale2]

this is awesome! everything is so in sync!

[scenekidacide]

why did abc even show the seattle space needle the sonics team was already stolen.

[and1player1521]

you sir are awesome for making this video

[bbddbdbd]

this song reminds me of nba showtime on the playstation

[thmarbeef]

roundball rock is classic the video is so much better with this song

[ndolja]

Damn Nate, that shit is repetetive.

:)
