for those wondering: he hit about .061 (6.19 %) of the 3-PT attempts with Shaq (13 / 210) which is actually better than his real life percentage (.045 / 4.5 %)
So basically, he was in the NBA because he was tall. There's no other reason for anyone sniffing the NBA if they had a 4.5% in 3 pointers. That's embarrassing.
@@tedgrowney8981 lol that's like saying "NFL linemen are only in the game because they are strong and fast." Being a physical presence in professional sports is like 85% of the challenge. The average 6'6" NBA player is in the 99.9th percentile for height in America. You're discounting that Shaq's probably the strongest basketball player ever, and that doesn't come without a lot of hard work in the gym. The rule changes in 2004ish that made the NBA less physical meant Shaq's skill set was less valuable. He's probably the epitome of bully ball, which is a perfectly legitimate way to put points on the board.
I still remember to this day, I was playing NBA2K3 and I threw an inbound pass to Shaq right before the end of the quarter. There was only a couple seconds left so I take the full court shot and Shaq’s animation uses his whole body to throw the ball cross court, and what do you know, NOTHING BUT NET. That’s the only full court shot I’ve made in my whole 2K career and it’s by none other than the Big Diesel himself.
Oh man… I remember switching to 2k in 2004 and I was blown away how much better the graphics especially the floor was. It was nice to have a little revisit with your video
The rest of us switched because it was a better game, but yeah, cool shiny floors bro. This is why developers don't care about making good games. All they have to do is make the floor shiny and people will love it.
@@B3Band well the floor is kind of the biggest object on the screen at any point in time besides the players themselves so its safe to say the floor looking nice is a pretty big deal.
I remember 2K gave Shaq like 30 something in speed and quickness. Insane, Lakers Shaq was as fast as any forward in the NBA. From what I read, Shaq ran 3/4 of a court in 3.25 seconds as a rookie, which was the same speed as Chris Paul during his rookie season. Therefore, Orlando Shaq should have gotten 83 in speed and Lakers Shaq maybe 81 in speed and quickness. But it is not just Shaq so many freakish big men like Dwight Howard were given only 60 something in speed when Howard ran 3/4 court in 3.14 seconds, which should have given him an 89 speed.
I agree with you but I also understand why they don’t give big men legit athletic ratings, u can’t have 7 footers faster or just as fast than the guards or shit would get even more broke real quick
@@jaithen29 I edit the rosters based on their actual speed and it really doesn't have any difference in the game because regardless how fast the big men are, guards in the NBA are generally a one level higher in athleticism, except few freaks like Dwight Howard. Plus, it makes the game more realistic because it makes big men explosive similiar to their actual selves in the game.
30 something speed should be reserved for guys who you have to wait for to get in a half court offense. That's pretty rare in the NBA tho. I remember Kareem in his last year was like that and the Lakers were okay with that because he could still shoot the sky hook with a high percentage.
@@KTF0 yea only guys like Boban and like tacko fall are really to that point. Jokic isnt very fast but he got a little burst to him. Looney on the warriors is very slow in transition, fun fact though in highschool he was called like mini KD or some shit lol. There are some dudes who are genuinely slow in the sense of just they are almost a nonfactor in transition. But not as many as 2k would make you believe lol
I remember i got a nintendo 64 when i was a little boy and i got a wcw nwo wrestling game and my dad was on the phone with grandpa telling him how realistic it looked lol
I'll never forget doing myteam in 2k11 and Shaq went back to LA and him and Kobe literally won 20 games in a row and won the championship. I wonder if I can find that save file, if it even exists anymore.
10:21 I can’t believe he hit a 3pt in 2k22 with Shaq, with a 26ovrl in the 3pt stats.. When it’s a pain in the ass for me to hit a 3 with Curry.. smh 🤦🏽♂️
I remembered playing 2K5, I took Spurs and my friend Heats. I was trailing by 3 in last possession. I passed to Timmy (out of panic) and dude made a clutch 3 pointers to tie the game! My mate complained it's a cheat and refused to play the extra time. Well, the same shit did happened in real life a few years later. And it's against Shaq too!!!!!
NBA 2K originally came out for the Sega Dreamcast (Sega's last console); 2K2 was the first one to be released for something that wasn't the Dreamcast (it came out on the Dreamcast, PS2, Xbox OG, and Nintendo GameCube)
Nba 2k was so good back then, before the game design model was a "pay to win" live service model. Which is similar to mobile live service model. Nothing wrong with the live service model as it allows the studio to increase their revenue through ugc core loop. But really takes the essence of a video game....
I played the heck out my 2k2 with Shaq and Lakers. In 2k2 when Shaq would attempt a 3 and miss, the announcer would say "O'Neal misses the three, you don't want him taking that shot"
I wanted to see all of the stats from every game in this video together, so for anyone else who wants that, here they are: (For an explanation of how I formatted it, see the bottom of this comment if u want to) NBA 2K: 1/11, 9.09%; cumulative 1/11, 9.09% NBA 2K1: 1/4, 25.00%; cumulative 2/15, 13.33% NBA 2K2: 1/38, 2.63%; cumulative 3/53, 5.66% NBA 2K3: 1/23, 4.35%; cumulative 4/76, 5.26% NBA 2K4: 1/5, 20.00%; cumulative 5/81, 6.17% NBA 2K5: 1/35, 2.86%; cumulative 6/116, 5.17% NBA 2K6: 1/7, 14.29%; cumulative 7/123, 5.69% NBA 2K7: 1/9, 11.11%; cumulative 8/132, 6.06% NBA 2K8: 1/5, 20.00%; cumulative 9/137, 6.57% NBA 2K9: * 1/3, 33.33%; cumulative 10/140, 7.14% NBA 2K10: 1/26, 3.85%; cumulative 11/166, 6.63% NBA 2K11: 1/8, 12.50%; cumulative 12/174, 6.90% NBA 2K22: 1/36, 2.78%; cumulative 13/210, 6.19% * The stats on screen for 2K9 (at 8:31) say 1 for 4, but Smequle explains that the last shot was after he already made one, and I’m only including the 3 point attempts up to each made 3 pointer. *Format explanation:* Here’s the format: first, the 3 point shots ratio (made shots / total attempts) for that game, then the 3 point percentage for that game [semicolon] Then the cumulative 3 point shots ratio (total made shots / cumulative total attempts) and cumulative 3 point percentage. I hope that makes sense. _Also:_ Smequle said that Shaq went 1 for 22 from the 3 point line in his career, which would give him a career percentage of 4.545% (I double checked online and this is correct). In this video (without NBA 2K22) he shot an overall 12 for 174 from the 3 point line, which comes out to 6.897%, so he did successfully do better than Shaq’s career ratio of 1 make per 22 attempts (at 0:47 Smequle he says he wants to “at least shoot that percentage”)
2K (the original) is so much fun because of its plethora of weird glitches. For example, when you play with the Pacers and it randomly says "DAVIS! DAVIS! DAVIS!" in a high voice.
I don't play 2K, nor do I watch basketball, but I know Shaq isn't very good anywhere but at the hoop. However, I was eating a poptart watching this video, and as soon as you booted the third game up, I took a large bite and almost swallowed the whole thing when Shaq whiffed a whole school bus to the left. 3:12
God nostalgia watching this. I played all these but 2k was my everyday thing starting from espn basketball. ESPN 2k5 football is still the best sports game of all time. I played both 2ks that year every spare second of middle school. Loved it. Thanks for the video.
long long time ago, without modifying any skill of Shaq once I scored 38 3pts in NBA Live 2005, I swear it is true. I always shot at the center of the court.
What's up with the 15 TO's in '02? Were some of those shots so bad the computer thought they were passes and gave it a TO instead? If so, that turns a tepid 1/38 into a scorching hot 1/53.

I gotta say, that first game looks pretty damn good for something that came out in 1999!
Of course Kobe would still find a way to score in this video :").
I wish I had this much patience 😂
Imagine seeing shaq irl ever doing a pick and pop, or calling a screen
Lmaoo

Getting a block/rebound with muggsy in every 2k

Good idea
He only played in 2 years were 2k was a thing and there aren’t many all time/classic versions with him

plays easily the greatest sports game ever made, 2k11 - "how do I set a pic in this game?"
