NBA Live 05 was the SHIT back in the day. Gotta be the one of the most iconic basketball games ever. Shame what happened to NBA Live. 2k needs competition bro. Fire video, Kenny.
Easily my favorite basketball game of all time. I spent hours trying to perfect the in between the legs twice dunk or trying to win the 3 point contest with Yao Ming
I was 12 in Columbia, SC when this dropped. And I spent so much time building this exact Bobcats team in this mode. Crazy nostalgic. In other news, it's true it's gone backwards in some ways, but also that things like Trade Finder are a great addition. But spending 90% of my time "chatting" is just awful. Why is so hard to combine the best features of all these modes/franchises over the years?? Also I miss the name "dynasty mode"...so good.
challenge idea, go to the wheel of teams, and whatever team you land on, you have to recreate it. For example, you land on the suns, you go to 2k, do a fantasy draft, and with the assets, you need to get all the current suns players (bradley beal, devin booker, KD, ayton, etc) but once you get everyone, if you don’t feel confident that you can win a championship, you make trades to make them better
Or he uses the eras system and tries to recreate one of those superteams such as the superteam warriors, 91 bulls, 80s Lakers or Celtics, etc. I seem that would be much harder
I miss ratings systems like the ones Nba Live 2005 had. You should have players in the 30 and 40 ratings, it should be a huge achievement to get to an 85.
Same bro. I played NBA Live 2005 religously. I didn't buy another basketball game until nba 2k11 and I was so confused when I saw bums have a 70 overall rating. Took me forever to get used to 2k's rating system.
nah it makes sense to start at 60 and ”bad players” being like 68 since the league is a lot more competitive and hard to get into so obviously every player is amazing at basketball
@@kentrellgaulden7890 yeah the average player is better but starting at a 50 for most of the 2way player wold be much better i believe so you can actually make a difference between spot 1-3 4-6 -7-9 and lower rotatation guys
The difference between like Jokic and a 35yo who never really plays is astronomical. 2K doesn’t want to hurt peoples feelings tho, literally. So many guys ask what their overall is and/or really care. Also the people who make the ratings, it seems like they aren’t like hoop heads. I’ve seen legit solid 3&D wings that start be like 75s with D perimeter defense and sht. So I think it’s a mix of not wanting to hurt peoples feelings and then not caring/knowing about role players in small markets or w/e. Current DeAndre Jordan is a 72ovr. Hartenstein is a 76. Enes Kanter is a 76 🤣 like cmon bro. iHart being same ovr as Kanter is NUTS.
NBA Live 05, was the first ever NBA game I’ve played at the age of 9. Asked for Smackdown vs raw and got this game instead, was pissed AF at first . But now I’m grateful for it. Got me into the NBA so much.
Yo Kenny got a video idea… Jersey swap challenge: you can only trade for players that have the same jersey number, EX: Damian Lillard for Jayson Tatum or James harden for Zion. But you can also trade for someone that has done a jersey swap IRL, EX: Dillon Brooks and Kyrie. You have to 3 peat good luck. Day 30 of asking
#1. You have to play the games in order to earn dynasty points to for training sessions for either a player of your choice or the entire team. #2. Dwight Howard is listed as PF on here, hence why Okafor was named starter for the rookie challenge.
Challenge Idea: The KENNY BEECHAM challenge!! Win a championship with players who's last names spell out Kenny Beecham! (Ex. Lonzo Ball for B, Anthony Edwards for E, etc.) Each letter in your name needs a player (yes 3 players for E, 2 players for N!) 12 man rotation, each player must get at least one minute of pt. Good luck!
Kenny, you should do a hoopgrids and treat it like a ballin on a budget graphic where you get $100 (for 100%) to go 82-0 and you try to think of good players with low percentages. That'd be fire even though you'd still be dodging the real 82-0 challenge.
I remember that one too! And it had Superstar as the title song. It was great in the cinematic way you would go up for dunks and either make it or get blocked
@KOT4Q. This game is what I play alot when I'm playin somethin throwback. I used to really suck at this game; but I've figured out in the last couple years how to be good at it. So now I play Dynasty mode and am able to rebuild my roster within that same season before the Trade Deadline. Good to see U still doin yo thing Kenny!
Live 05 I had on the original Xbox and in my franchise mode I made the LBJ, Wade and Bosh big 3 in 2006. Ilgauskas and Korver were in my team. Biggest coincidence of my life still till this date.
I wish they’d try to make a good NBA game again. 2K sells like 10M copies on an off year bro, and that doesn’t count VC. It’d obv take time, they’d prolly lose money for the first cpl games. But by the 3rd I bet they could have a good game. Especially if they focused on gameplay and simulation, didn’t worry about having 500 game modes, like they could just not have MT or w/e. If they spent a couple years developing the first one, then released it for like $35 or something and took feedback from smart ppl in the community, paid ppl like Kenny to fly out for a week and work with them on their version of MyGM for example. Then the same thing to help them with tweaking gameplay and whatever else. Ppl who rly know ball and are good representatives for the community. Wouldn’t cost that much compared to EA budget money. Fly them 1st class, nice hotel, food, etc. Then idk, like $10K or something? You could get A LOT done in like 5 sessions where they’re in the studio helping for maybe 5-6 hours. So 30 hours or so for the week. If they did that for Kenny, then 3-4 other ppl it’d help so much it’d be ridiculous. You’re talking maybe $15K-$20K to have 5 ppl fly out and stay there, help for x hours a day for a week or w/e. $100K is NOTHING for them. And if they can have a good NBA game within the next 2-3 years, all they’d have to do is get 1/3 of the ppl who play 2K to buy both or switch over and you’re selling 3-4M copies a year. And there’s no reason it couldn’t get bigger. There aren’t that many games that release yearly and sell 3M+ copies. Ppl are dying for another NBA game too. I’d 1000% support if they rly tried and took feedback like that seriously and were putting in mad work to make a great game. Monopolies are p much never good. 2K overtook Live bc it became a better game. Live got kinda lazy and 2K took their spot. Now that’s not even possible bc there’s ONE GAME. Smh
Side note, how you like the way you can up the practice for shooting and stuff, Idk why you dont do it in 2k, If you do the team training and you put it all on outside shooting, and fundamentals on offense, the players progress crazy, like after a few seasons everyone will have A plus outside and midrange shooting, it also takes 10 seconds to set up lol
Hey Kenny! I haven’t been a fan since you started but I still support you like I’m one of the og’s! Anyways I have a video idea for you. Do a rebuild where you can only use teammates of the all time NBA bad boys, players that really enforced defense. Ben Wallace, Kevin Garnett just cause he talked a bunch of trash but yk the idea. If you use this in a video please shout me out it would make my day 😁 Have a great day Kenny, I hope you keep doing what you do for awhile! ✌️✌️✌️
Day 479 of asking KOT4Q to do the No Free Agency Rebuilding Challenge Rule 1: You cannot sign any players during off season free agency. Rule 2: Once a player’s contract expires, they’re gone from the team for good. Rule 3: You cannot sign players in free agency to acquire assets then flipping them nor can you use free agency to fill up roster space. Rule 4: No contract extensions or trades during off season free agency. Rule 5: Trade only during the regular season. Rule 6: Try and win 2 or 3 championships. This is my challenge for KOT4Q let’s see if he can complete this.
Kenny you should try out March Madness Legacy. It's a Mod for NCAA Basketball 08 (or 10, not 100% sure on that) that brings it into the current day and age
Bro the fact that Kenny made a fairly odd parents reference n had to say “some of y’all are too young” makes me feel old 😭
nah fr 😭
Yup lol
Jesus loves you and may God bless you
We are old bro. I’ll be 31 in oct 😅

@@TheGamingShogun that is a good idea too and harder fro entertainment
Or like if he recreates the sun's from a fantasy draft and then at the trade deadline he can make more trades to become a championship team

I ain’t seen Kenny this happy for a rebuild in a minute
I never played one of the Sony NBA games, so it would be really interesting to see how it differed from Live and 2K.
This game is the reason I fell in love with basketball. Only game my parents could afford at the time, and the reason I watch to this day
“And we back!”
When everything got dark💀🤣 4:04
The dunk contest in old NBA live games was insane

Kenny is the type of guy to call 7’12” a height
Oh no not these comments

I was really hoping he didn’t say this

Filling the trophy cases would be a dope series fr 🔥
The Fairly Odd Parents joke was gold 😭
The fairly oddparents reference was gold 😂😂 used to cry from laughing watching that shit
8:51 shaq 1/1 from 3 😂😂
Me still checking everyday if the new episode of the “KOT4Q universe” is out😢
Same lmao 😢 😂
I know 😢
Fax
Where is it bro??? Dont tell me you not makin those anymore 😭
How is it so hard for someone to keep up w a series?? This is ur job buddy

33:50 Kenny hit that how it feels to chew five gum stumble JEEZ
That sentence ROCKED him😂😂
Love this set up
Same
fr it’s just so chill
4:06 Bro, screen became a darker on AK 47, cuz he's Russsian lol
NBA Live 06 was one of my favorite video games period. Dwayne Wade on the cover always goes hard
NBA 06 the life had a wild story mode if I remember correctly. I’d LOVE to see you play that Kenny!
I remember that one too! And it had Superstar as the title song. It was great in the cinematic way you would go up for dunks and either make it or get blocked
Challenge idea: Win a title with only players that have never been an all star before. Must have 10 players getting pt.
Appreciate ya homie
who remembers kenny in the apartament.?
Me
I remember. I miss those days! 😢

The goat of rebuilding
Kenny with the fire manga collection
kenny once again dodging the 82-0 challenge...
Live 05 I had on the original Xbox and in my franchise mode I made the LBJ, Wade and Bosh big 3 in 2006. Ilgauskas and Korver were in my team.
Biggest coincidence of my life still till this date.
Dude, I grew up playing nba live 04. Loved that game. Live was so much better than 2k
God NBA Live 2005 was my first basketball game ever, and it’s easily my most nostalgic
Especially the music GOD DAMN
We need an NBA Live 05 series. Fr bro.
Idc what he does we eatin with the throwback content! I would love to see NBA 06
The NBA Live 05 dunk contest was so frustrating dude... a time where you had J Rich doing front flips, bounce upand go between the legs was wild.
I spent hours perfecting my dunks as a kid.
Live 05 2k5 man that was a great year! I was a sophomore in high school.
Yes, Kenny!!!! More NBA Live game challenges!!!!!🙏🤘
Live 2005, holy fuck, probably played this game for 3 years straight, poor house hold things. What a throw back
0:42 that almost sounds like a threat lol
This game came out when I was born😂
NBA 06 was elite in my childhood
We need the continuation of I created an NBA universe
Kenny play some NBA Inside the Drive 04, one of the best besides 2k or Live.
Hit 08 next. That was my childhood fr
This was the season where nash won his first mvp and thats why his rating is so low. No one expected him to come out of no where and win that shit
Day 2 of asking for another episode of the NBA UNIVERSE
I love these throwback rebuilds
:You should do a video on a nba street game
Day One of asking Kenny to do a video about completing the Trophy Showcase in MyNBA
You should actually do a video of getting all the awards. Or make this a series. This game was a banger back then!
I don’t care what anyone says but nba 07 conquest was the most fun I’ve ever had playing a video game
NBA Live 05 got one of the best soundtracks
Love the content Kenny 😊
I definitely like the ratings in the old NBA Live's more than 2K. It's way too generous nowadays
Ha, I remember this year when I was younger bc they changed their rating scale which really bothered me at the time
nba 08 was a classic

Man the older nba game rebuilds are juicy
The right stick is the crossover moves
This brought back so many memories for me. I wanna dust off my ps2 and play again
This video definitely brought back that feeling
This brings back so many memories. NBA live 05 might be top 5 all time game
Nice game collection Kenny 👏👏, looks like a mini GameStop in the background!
More NBA live 05 Kenny love the switch up ‼️
This unlocked so many memories
Live 05 and live 10 (dwight cover) are goated
Need way more of this
Nba live 07 was my first nba game. I loved it. I like game modes in there. Specially dunk contest.
Live 2005 was my first NBA game, but Inside Drive 2004 is the greatest of all time. Kevin Calabro's commentary is hilarious
That Fairy Odd Parents reference put a smile on my face ☺️
Those other nba games were lit. The shot meter on there was everything
I put so many hours into NBA Live 05 back in the day when I was 8. Easily the video game I remember playing the most from my childhood

Maybe you could make a ‘Lebron challenges series’ like the Jordan challenges but with Lebron’s best career moments
NBA LIVE 2005 Dunk Contest deserves its own video, if you know, you know
The corner fadeaway off the glass is classic in that game. And the chase down block is where bron learned it from
NBA live 08 w Gil on the cover🔥
I always thought the rating system of these games made way more sense than the modern games where scrubs are like mid 80s
This game got the best intro song imo. Nostalgiaaaaaa
Bros manga collection has been growing so fast
Nah Kenny I remember that Fairy Odd parents joke 😂
Kenny please do a video where you do win all the awards. I’d watch it in a heartbeat

NBA live 05 will forever be the greatest basketball game ever made
Kenny you should try out March Madness Legacy. It's a Mod for NCAA Basketball 08 (or 10, not 100% sure on that) that brings it into the current day and age
NBA Live 06 was my first game, I’ll never forget the dunk contest
First basketball game I ever played back on the game cube. Intro went so hard
It's the scene change on the FOP reference that's cracking me up. Ik this aint a 2K vid but that 82-0 really is Kenny's Dinkleberg
NBA live 2006 went hard.
Reggie miller was in the game because he was in the NBA still
Man you should do the video where you get every trophy like rookie of the year, dunk contest and etc.I think that it would get views
NBA live 2005 was absolutely LIT
