I’ve never played 2k and think it’s dumb as hell
Kyler Murray pumping his fist in the air rn.
Hali thinks I’m a real hooper fr 😤😤
I’m basically Tyrese Haliburton
I’ll take my 200mili now, please
Incoming rebrand of the major leagues to “in-person e-sports.” My kids’ favorite game is “Minecraft in real life” aka playing outside

I was ahead of the curve playing with Steve Nash in Live 2003. I basically had him doing Steph Curry’s career back then. He was way too good of a shooter not to just fire away.
The video game counterpart of that 02-03 Mavs team was a modern NBA dream. Dirk obviously goes without saying but Raef LaFrentz was a 3&D center and you legitimately could play 5-out with them. They had shooters everywhere on the wings too.
kids who were jacking up 3’s in 2K and going for it on 4th and 2 in Madden are taking massive W’s now
Just like me fr…
Spam pick and roll

They keep putting Hali content on this reddit and I’m just going to keeping saying the same thing because it doesn’t get talked about enough: James Wiseman #2 pick.
I became better at rebounding because 2K taught me the importance of boxing out (gotta get that teammate grade up)
