NBA 2K3 Intro

[jpowers55]

Anyone know why espn and 2k parted ways?

[oldmanwithers1]

@jpowers55 not 100%, but I heard 2k's ESPN licence expired, then of course EA snapped it up quicksmart, fucked up their games, and left us with NBA 2k12 minus the potentially brilliant ESPN presentation.

[controlpad008]

thumbs up if your watching this in 2011/2012

[Raptosful]

@controlpad008 man i love these vintage games

[MegaBobland]

like sports center theme.



[odihjiohzd]

0:34 MICHAEL FINLEY.......all you can say is DAMN

[richkid2311]

Wish 2k and ESPN wouldnt have parted. The ESPN presentation would top of the perfectness of 2k12

[undead1987th]

Vlade Divac & Chris Webber!

[itzjuzz]

man fuck, good moments

[PuffDiamond27]

ALLEN IVERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iUberrzx]

This makes me sad seeing all these players that were once in there prime.

[DMV36132]

Iverson was the man back then!

[Doc187XL]

i didnt like this 2k3 so i gave nba live 03 a run up to 06 then went back to 2k6 - 2k11

[TheMadnessFlow]

People forget J Rich was a beast.

Dude was explosive.

If he wasn't wasted on those pretty average Warriors teams all those years...

[MQBone3]

those last seconds of Iverson were very memorable.

[jerseykid101]

Yo i miss Iverson

[dhankins627]

Kobe with the afro, AI on the Sixers, KG with the Timberwolves, Tracy McGrady with the Magic, and Vince Carter with the Raptors. Those were the days haha

[NBACHATPAGE]

Give KG a passport for that travel

[WhatBandFreak]

This is the longest intro ever

[TyFly312]

This was my shit, it was the 1st NBA game to intergrate ESPN in it. It was so underated tho, it was 100 times better than NBA Live 2003. Can't nobody stand a chance vs. me in this game if I pick Lakers, Sixers, Kings or Suns. The thing bout this 2K is that I can play with every team effectively. I spent at least 30,000 hours on it (also had Live 2003 but only played ppl for money on it)

[game3525]

Best intro.

[datsright246]

8 Years ago i thought NBA players can take a 5 step approach.... thanks to Kevin Garnett in this intro

[AkshunAffirmative]

man they need to bring back these intros :(

[inc2000glw]

JRich cant do that like he used to ..sigh!!!

[TheKapei22]

Great dunk by KG.

[x4president1]

I got serious chills just then.

[Gradyballa]

Kenyon Martin was a better Blake Griffin before the knee injuries

[atlside3]

hey bro i see you have the game, could you possbile show some gameplay footage? like kings vs la or something?

[sebastianproductions]

hey thanks for letting me know! I was trying to find him!

[sebastianproductions]

at 0:38 whats the name of the guy with the jersey 23 of the warriors?

[mdamian1984]

@sebastianproductions jason richardson

[alexrules55]

This is 2000's finest era in basketball.

[IANicecreamCONE]

what an epic intro



[chitowngogetta1]

This when A.I. was the man.

[Holdington]

Jesus, tone down the volume on this video!

[DukeBlueDevilFan08]

Kenyon Martin pins David Wesley..

[TheThetruth802]

looks like Kg walked a mile

[roygib09]

damn KG traveled hard then a bitch lol

[taylortype]

walkinn from da 3 point line lol

[whbstrd47]

no matter how many times i played i never skipped the intro

[kiwiarodfan]

a.i move agianst the knicks was boss

[ImDino]

nba live 2000 intro murders this one

[wawasgood]

Always nice to see AI, J-Rich, Vince Carter, T-Mac, KG hell even Ben Wallace doing their thing back then. Ahh the NBA in the early part of this decade.

[NickelodeonRewind2]

this was my first ps2 game

[lilprincekilla]

36-37 nice how jay rich just evades ben and dunks it on em. talk about timing and hand time!

[SuperSoak123]

0:47 okay KG take 4 steps LOL

[Ampsta09]

If you listen clearly you can hear the refs whistle.

[SuperSoak123]

that could be for a foul because the guy was pushing KG from behind lol

[JustinW06]

this is when the nba was still good to watch, now it sucks.

[danfredde]

yea mine too... but then he screwed up

[kikostrum]

I remember when Chris Webber is still on top of his game.. back in the day he's my favorite player..

[dipsetallday75]

do you guys rememebr Allen Iverson was on like 4 of the 2k covers back in the day

[RedAvery1]

this intro is the best one ever. It has the right music alot of action and it gets you pumped for some 2k basketball.

[lilprincekilla]

naaa, 2k4 was

[lilprincekilla]

more so it just matches espn. not the best

[RedAvery1]

At least 2k knows how to use espn. Other than whack ass ea sports who just buy the license fuck punk ass madden nation. No kind of fuckin real nfl or nba themes inside the games. only that whack ass madden begin game theme and some bitch ass other music and of course the same ass nfl films music that is turned off have to be manually turned on....I hate ea sports. "Fight for the fumble" nigga fuck you.

[jordan5423]

why don't they have a intro like this for other games

[klearlykirby]

mis that vince carter

[tom69pl]

and that Tmac and Kmart too

[lilprincekilla]

they make vince seem like he likes going under players and hitting that back board the way they put it on here and on 2k2

[dwhite3fz]

PIERCEEEEE!!!!!!

[sublIME2s]

best 2k game series.

[z4ng3tsu1ch1g0]

I still say NBA 2k5 the best intro. Sorry folks.

[Wagana50]

boss as fuck

[Nitrokid217]

Awesome!

[superflypandaguy]

best intro in 2k franchise.

ps. do you have any gameplay videos?

[TBryant20]

whoa great memories watchin that...i was a sophomore n hs lol...i remember u could be jordan and he was rate like 115 lol...crazy

[htownnigggga]

[dwhite3fz]

HAHAHAHAHA I know what u mean man

[sasuke661199]

KG traveled

[Reigns20]

[dwhite3fz]

[TheArsonist24]

I have this game and im selling it.

[awwwcomeon]

hey are you really selling it?

[Julian2415]

0:45 lol kevin garnett traveled so bad

[theANSWER4MVP]

true, that was a LeBron crab dribble

----> clear TRAVEL

[ZXDify]

@Julian2415 Yea yea, if you listen very closely, you could hear the whistle getting him the call on traveling.

[awwwcomeon]

hey can anyone tell me if this game can play in the older version of ps2?!?! plsss

[alen209]

durr

[awwwcomeon]

[stuwiitube]

[ttho89]

0:55 goaltending?

[nets1fan102290]

no he got it before it hit the backboard

[xbox360fanatics]

(N)B A 2K5 was good also

[Mushdi]

I gotthis intro in 2k2 not in 2k3 on dreamcast

[ArniuXazz]

wow this looks better then nba09

[KendrickJobe1]

For those who follow the 2K Franchise as religiously as I do, you'd notice the graphics and aesthetics continually improve but the GAME ENGINE worsens. While still miles ahead of live, 2K is in desperate need of some tweaking.

[NBaBall3r26]

Tim Duncan got blocked!

[houston1baller1]

why they dont got nba 2k4 intro that was the best one

[dabeast615]

NBA 2K on the dreamcast and shit was untouchable. Greatest basketball games ever made.

[TheNaasCRUBitch]

wtf dont they have intros nowadays!!

[ajcool240]

sik intro

[odihjiohzd]

0:36 Go Head Mike finley

[17bynum17]

shit gave me chills

[Kobeownzu81]

[the69chevykid]

Oh, the memories. J-Rich @ :36 & :49 proving why he was the slam dunk champ back2back & Erick Dampier @ :45 with the swat.

[RealLakersFan4Life]

Very nice intro. I have the GameCube version. It's the best basketball game for that system, period.

[SheedyDoo]

Just bought this a week or so ago for a dollar at Gamestop.

[BlackSted]

NBA LIVE SUCKS..2K KICKS ASS!! F***N' noob!!

[swantonbomb444]

ooo yeaa i have 2k3 and live 02 and 04 and i can only say all three r good games but 04 is the best i know all u guys r going to go u suck or give me thumbs down but before u do try the game

[odihjiohzd]

0:35 michael finley holy crap

[tmacfeva]

valentinerimo, if u say this one's the best, i think u didn't see 2k5

[wwefroogy]

2K5's intro video was cool, but the song wasn't as good as this one's.

[valentinerrimo]

the best basket game intro ever...

[shanto719]

i like the pass from webber to divac

[pierceceltics34]

this music was in espn nfl 2k5

[DCSTUBZ]

No kidding

[nets1fan102290]

this was the greatest intro i would litterally wait and watch it before i played 2 bad my gamecube always fucking froze when i played this game. fuck gamecube

[TheGreatest101]

also wondered if ben wallace goaltended... damn i loved this game

[DCSTUBZ]

KG takes 10 steps around :45

[TheGreatest101]

i always wondered about that.

[TheGreatest101]

i always wondered about that.

[TheGreatest101]

i always wondered about that.

[jmi84]

Actually he took 11 steps, lol. I noticed that too. lol Man when youre a "superstar" you get away with anything in sports.

[BigSlickStar]

[coolpinoy93]

[dougi]

[WiltTheStiltThirteen]

[videolover10101]

wow long enough intro but i luved it!!

[sportykid10]

i loved this game anyways i have the same vid

[JBrown910]

This was like one of my favorite NBA2K games. I had the horrendous, full-o-glitches Gamecube version though.

[JLRthatruth]

2k fell off a tad since they lost espn & sega

[ranmasama]

2ksports needs to sharpen up its presentation like 2k3
