The first NBA video game me and my brother played, the Kareem Abdul Jabbar hook shot was made to perfection by this, not even NBA 2k or elite could do such, a Jabbar hook shot.
We used to play this in our monitor, I dont know if I still kept my disk copy, there are only 8 teams here, Boston, New York, Chicago, Detroit, LA Lakers, Phoenix, Seattle and Utah, the Jabbar hook shot was perfectly made, something not even NBA 2K were able to do.
damn.... i had this on 5 1/4 floppy disk back in 1990. It was my favorite game for quite some time. Used to love playing as the East All-Stars and use Sir Charles; he would dominate in this game.
its amazing when you think about it that this rivalry goes back to the 60's and 50's. The Lakers and Celtics are still meeting eachother in the finals. That's amazing.
@moneyman237952 Technically it wasn't a rivalry until the 80s, since the Lakers lost like 8 straight times to the Celtics in the finals until Magic Johnson and Kareem finally beat them.
@bc2358 in this time, they worked harder on it than they did nba 2k10, give them credit for making something like this when computers were barely being released to the public
chadherrella, I play basketball every other day. I'm 5'6 and I am able to dunk! I just took this special jump training workout at 50 inch vertical (dot) com - you can probably do it too
that's why I love the NBA even though it has its problems. I’m following this training program that’s used by NBA players - snipurl[dot]com/nbatraining – I’m already jumping higher and dominating on the court !
Jordan has that hook shot from alittle off the top of the key that goes in 99% of the time :p. I never played the USA basketball game, but have seen it at a retro store. Is it worth picking up for $3?
I remember when I thought this was the shit. He'll it was funner to play than a lot of the basketball games being released these days. Sometimes you just want to play, not have a seizure.
read Don't laugh at this! Just do it Start thinking something you really really want cause this is astounding the person that sent this to me said their wish came true 10 mins after they read the mail so I thought what the heck You have just been visited by DrSuess's Cat in the Hat. He will grant you one wish Make your wish when the count down is over 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 MAKE A WISH Send this to 10 videos within the hour you read this. If you do, your wish will come true
you ought to check out atari basketball from 1979. that was the first arcade basketball game to be released on a large commercial scale. i put up a small clip of it.
This is my first NBA video game too I still remember the day I bought it. I loved this game with my monochrome green monitor, I downloaded it recently just to bring back memories. The NBA Live series sucks now and I haven't bought it since 2000, but I will always remember this game as being one of my favorites.
I wonder if EA will consider naming their next installment of Live Lakers vs Celtics since that is the Finals match up this year.
