Kenny "The Jet" Smith has joined Shaquille O'Neal and Ernie Johnson in the NBA 2K16 pre-game, halftime and post-game shows. Check out the video here and post your thoughts!
I think it's funny 2k takes that stuff down and has streams saying they can't talk about this or that yet when the game is 2 weeks from release. I get it if it's a month or 2 out but hiding this with 2 weeks to go when some people will probably have the game in a week anyways is funny to me.
First the bootleg video from the german guy
Now this
I must say, 2K Marketing gets one upped again for holding out too long

Couldn't have said it better myself! It just gives off this "you aint good enough" stink in a way.....its the ONLY thing that annoys me at times about 2K.
I mean some people have played it at EXPOs and stuff....
But let's not get all negative haha...... ahhh.....I feel better now.
This is an insane addition... i always felt in 2k15 Shaq was a lil too goofy next to Ernie's 'straight man'. But Kenny is integral to the chemistry on Inside the Nba and should really bring it together in 2k16.
damn it I literally can't wait anymore, hopefully the 2K guys will be dropping a blog about the rest of the presentation now, I need more information haha

15 more days til this beast drops. Man.....!! I can not believe what they have done for us fans this year.
Long weekend here in Oz on the weekend it drops too.....3 days of nerd beard and poor hygiene/social life......
Really like the halftime part where you can see the arena behind the panel. I guess we always knew more was going to be built off of last years one and more of a halftime show etc. was almost inevitable...... but it's still so nice when you actually finally see it come to fruition....

And I'll be playing both. Like I do every year.
just an expectation I have seeing we didn't have shaq and ernie in mycareer last year, hoping it will appear in both of course, just not that sure is all
Overjoyed at this news! I just need to play this game now. It really seems like 2K have made the complete sports game and that's before we even have the MyCareer info. Looking forward to the rest of the presentation info. I wonder who's replacing Kerr - is it going to be Smith?
... For those wanting for MyCareer, does it really make sense for consistency's sake to be looking at the halftime show when you're role playing as one of the players? I'd be fine with them bringing back the coaches' locker room pep talks if they weren't so boring and repetitive, and were more useful.
It makes as much sense as it does if you control a superstar(eg roleplay as) you know nothing about other than what you watch on t.v. or read about in Sports Illustrated.
This is a video basketball game and not a life-simulator. Part of basketball's immersion for us fans is the pomp and presentation of pre-game, half-time and post-game shows. If it is something expected in MyLeague or Quick-Game, presentation-wise, it should be expected in MyCareer.
Most everyone enjoyed the half-time shows of past years, so there is no reason it and the others would not be enjoyed now.
I knew that last years implementation of Shaq and Ernie would probably lead to this. It only made the most sense. I'm am surprised though that Kenny is now apart of the action, but then again I'm not because when Shaq and EJ were advertising 2k15 on opening night last year you could see it coming (btw 2k needs to step their cash game up for Chuck fareel)
Nobody can sit here and say 2K didn't try their hardest to get that TNT/NBA TV license. They have basically everything else except the branding. I think they want it just as much as we do.
