Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch is a Nintendo console that had had over 48 million sales. In 2019 alone they sold 38 million consoles. After these numbers, you probably realize that this is a good console, which it is. But, it does have some things that I thought would be better. If you wanted this info and are looking forward to buying a Nintendo Switch then this is for you.

The good part of the Nintendo Switch is the fact that it’s portable and playable on the TV. So if you want to play something like Fortnite on your Nintendo Switch, but your family is watching TV, you can just take it off the deck. This is the same concept as we saw with the Wii U, but now you can take the console anywhere. For example, last Spring I went to my grandparent’s house, which we flew to, and I took my Nintendo Switch. Well, when my parents were watching something really boring, I started playing my Nintendo Switch. Another really good thing about the Nintendo Switch is that there are 2 joy-cons. So you don’t have the buy a 2nd controller to play with your friend or family member. This makes it more fun and makes you spend less money. The thing that kind’ve sucks is that there’s an online subscription fee. But, the subscription is way cheaper than Playstation Plus and Xbox Live. If you want to buy a 1-year subscription on Playstation, it’s $59.99. But, the 1-year subscription on the Nintendo Switch is $19.99! Crazy right.

The price of a Nintendo Switch is the same as other consoles like the Playstation 4 and Xbox One X. The Nintendo Switch has two colorways: Neon Red and Gray. There are more colors, but you have to buy separate joy-cons for that. I would recommend getting the Neon Red, but even if you do get the Gray one you can put stickers on it. You can also buy a controller for the Nintendo Switch if you like using the controller. Unfortunately, the controller costs $70. But, the controller has 40 hours of battery life. An alternative to this is a wired controller. They only cost $25 dollar, and the only thing different about it is that it’s wired. To be honest, that’s not that bad. You save $45 dollars on the same controller that’s just wired. That’s Crazy. Another thing you can do is buy a Gamecube controller for the Nintendo Switch. I would rather buy the Gamecube controller than buy the pro controller for the Nintendo Switch.

Pro Controller

The bad parts of the Nintendo Switch are in this paragraph. The first bad part of the Nintendo Switch is overheating. You can play your Nintendo Switch for an hour and it’s so warm. It also gets really warm on the dock. Another bad part is the quality. Alright, I’m playing Fortnite on my Nintendo Switch. The quality is so bad! You can play Fortnite on Mobile and the quality is so similar. The Nintendo Switch also breaks really easily. I mean everyone breaks things, but when you break your Nintendo Switch it’s $300 out the window. Okay, that’s all the L’s for the Nintendo Switch

Alright, that is my blog post about the Nintendo Switch.

Fortnite

Fortnite is a 3rd person shooter game developed by Epic Games. Fortnite was released on July 25th, 2017. In Fortnite, you can play Battle Royale, Creative, and Save the World. You can play Fortnite on lots of different platforms including PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox series X, PC, and more. And without further ado, let’s begin today’s blog post.

Battle Royale: Battle Royale is a pretty good mode in my opinion because it is fun and you can play with your friends against other people. The only problem is that if you’re not good you will play against people 100 times better than you. There are lots of different modes you can play such as Solo, Duos, and Squads. If you have a pc the game is faster and the performance is better than console. Overall I give this mode a 9/10. It’s really fun but there are some really good players. 

Creative: Creative is a very fun mode that was released on December 13, 2018, during Season 7. In Creative mode, you can create islands or join other’s worlds. Creative mode is one of the most fun modes if you have a lot of people. On the other hand, if you’re by yourself Creative is pretty boring. Overall this mode deserves an 8/10. Creative is really fun but if you’re by yourself you may as well play Battle Royale. 

Save the World: I have never played Save the World in Fortnite so I won’t give this a rating. 

Graphics: The Graphics in Fortnite is really Cartoony, so the game is really appealing to little kids. Fortnite also has no blood or gore in the game and is also a 3rd person shooter game. This is really what separates Fortnite from other shooter games in my opinion. Another thing that makes Fortnite special is building. You can build with 3 different materials, Wood, Stone, and Metal(Wood being the weakest and Metal being the strongest). You can also edit buildings to make windows in walls or make openings in buildings. 

Crosshair and Bloom: Since Fortnite is a 3rd person shooter there is a crosshair in the middle of the screen. Also, instead of recoil, there is bloom in Fortnite. Basically, the crosshair increases so when you shoot it is harder to hit the enemy. 

The community of Fortnite is very diverse from little children to older adults. There are also playing the game all around the world. Even though the community is very diverse, it can be very toxic at times. There can be kids raging the game and breaking lots of things.

So after all that talk about the game let’s give this game a rating. I think Fortnite deserves an 8/10. If Fortnite was in its prime then it would be a 10/10. But unfortunately, the game has gotten boring and dry for most of its early players.

If we can agree on something it is that at one point Fortnite was the most fun we were having.

That’s all for today’s blog and thanks for reading!!!

Why Kobe was a legend

Kobe Bean Bryant was one of the greatest basketball players of all-time. He achieved many milestones that allowed him to enter the Hall of Fame. He has 5 NBA championships, 2 Finals MVP awards, one MVP award, 18 All-Star appearances, and is 4th all-time in points.

One season the “Black Mamba”, Kobe, averaged 35.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 4.5 assists in his best season, but didn’t win MVP that season. It was because his team wasn’t great. But he still won MVP in 2008 averaging 28.3 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 6.3 assists.

Back-to-Back champions deserve to be honored. Along with that Kobe, accomplished a three-peat(three in a row). He won Finals MVP Back-to-Back in 2009-2010. He won the NBA Finals 5 times, and was an NBA scoring leader in 2005-2006 & 2006-2007, but wasn’t MVP that season. He did get MVP in the 2007-2008 season, averaging 28.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 5.4 assists.

Every season that he wasn’t a rookie or injured, Kobe wouldn’t score under 17 points a game. Kobe broke a huge record on January 22, 2006, when he scored 81 points. He broke one of Wilt Chamberlain’s records(78 points), to take 2nd in points in a game. To prove that he was the hardest worker, Kobe would make 2,000 shots every day. That was why Kobe Bryant is a legend. R.I.P Kobe.

Bryant started playing basketball when he was three, and the Lakers were his favorite team when he was growing up. When Bryant was six, his father retired from the NBA and moved his family to Rieti in Italy to continue playing professional basketball. After two years, they moved first to Reggio Calabria, then to Pistoia and Reggio Emilia. Kobe became accustomed to his new lifestyle and learned to speak fluent Italian. He was especially fond of Reggio Emilia, which he considered a loving place and where some of his best childhood memories were made. Bryant began to play basketball seriously while living in Reggio Emilia. Bryant’s grandfather would mail him videos of NBA games for Bryant to study. Another source of inspiration was animated European films about sports, from which he learned more about basketball. From 1987 to 1989, his father played for Olimpia Basket Pistoia where he paired with former Detroit PistonsLeon Douglas. Kobe would work at the games as a ball and mop boy and would practice shooting at halftime, with Douglas sharing, “At every one of our games at halftime, it was the Kobe show. He’d get out there and get his shot up. We’d come out of the locker room at halftime and have to chase him off the court.”

Before the 1996 NBA draft, Bryant had worked out in Los Angeles, where he scrimmaged against former Lakers players Larry Drew and Michael Cooper and, according to then-Laker general manager Jerry West, “marched over these people”.

The Lakers were looking to trade their starting center Vlade Divac for a player’s draft rights to free up salary-cap space to make an offer to free-agent center Shaquille O’Neal. Bill Branch, the Charlotte Hornets’ head scout at the time, said that the Hornets agreed to trade their No. 13 pick to the Lakers the day before the draft. Before the trade agreement, the Hornets never considered drafting Bryant. During the draft, the Lakers told the Hornets whom to select minutes before the pick was made.

NBA Kia MVP Ladder (2019-2020)

This MVP Ladder is just my opinion and I got most of this from NBA.com, so shout out to them. Anyways, lets begin this. This week Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics have been improving. Over Jayson Tatum’s last seven games, he’s been averaging 26.5 ppg, 6 rpg, 3.5 apg, 1.5 spg, and 1.0 bpg. This season Tatum is leading the Celtics to the 3rd seed in the East.

Giannis Antetokounmpo
  1. Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks.

This season Giannis has been obviously the best in league. He has been averaging 30.8 ppg, 13.4 rpg, 5.8 apg, 1.1 spg, and 1.0 bpg. As a All-Star captain, I think he totally deserved it. Right now Giannis is holding the 1st spot in the MVP Ladder.

LeBron James

2. LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers

This season LeBron has been more of a playmaker, leading the league in assists per game. Him and Anthony Davis this season have been unstoppable, with the best record in the west. He is averaging 25.1 ppg, 7.7 rpg, 10.8 apg, 1.3 spg. Right now LeBron James is holding 2nd on the MVP Ladder.

Luka Doncic

3. Luka Doncic, Dallas Mavericks

This season Luka Doncic has been a threat to whatever team he plays. This season he’s also a All-Star Starter in his 2nd season. Right now Luka is averaging 28.8 ppg, 9.5 rpg, 8.7 apg, and 1.0 spg. Luka Doncic has been a very good player leading the Mavericks to a winning record of 32-22, with the help of Kristaps Porzingis. Right now on the MVP Ladder Luka is 6th.

Damian Lillard

4. Damian Lillard, Portland Trailblazers

The last few games in February Dame has been averaging 32.2 ppg, 3.5 rpg, 8.5 rpg, and 0.7 spg. This season Dame hasn’t led the Blazers to a winning record being 25-31, but he has beat some really good teams. Including, the Lakers, Heat, and Rockets. Right now on the MVP Ladder Dame Dolla is 7th.

Anthony Davis

5. Anthony Davis, Los Angeles Lakers

This season Anthony Davis has been doing great with the Los Angeles Lakers, holding the 1st seed with a record of 40-12. He is averaging 26.5 ppg, 9.2 rpg, 3.3 apg, and 2.4 bpg. On the MVP Ladder right now Davis is 8th.

Next Five

  • Jimmy Butler, Miami Heat.
  • Kawhi Leonard, Los Angeles Clippers
  • Jayson Tatum, Boston Celtics
  • Nikola Jokic, Denver Nuggets
  • Pascal Siakam, Toronto Raptors

Antetokounmpo began the 2019–20 season with a triple-double, recording 30 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists in a 117–111 season-opening win over the Houston Rockets on October 24, 2019. On November 25, Antetokounmpo scored a season-high 50 points, along with 14 rebounds, in a 122–118 win over the Utah Jazz. After a December 14 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Antetokounmpo had led the Bucks to their 18th straight victory, 2 shy of the franchise record. The winning streak ended on December 16 with a close loss to the Dallas Mavericks, in spite of Antetokounmpo recording an efficient 48 points and 14 rebounds.

NBA 2K17

NBA 2K17 is one of the best basketball video games of all time. The MyCareer was great because of Justice. “Orange Juice” was the best thing to get. It was like “Team Takeover” in 2K19 and 2K20. The Play Now was the same so I don’t have to talk about it. The MyLeague was the same, too. I almost forgot about MyTeam. MyTeam was one of the good parts of 2K17.

NBA 2K17 is a basketball simulation game that, like the previous games in the series, strives to realistically depict the experience of the National Basketball Association (NBA), as well as present improvements over the previous installments. The player mainly plays NBA basketball games with real-life or customized players and teams. As such, games follow the rules and objectives of NBA basketball games. Several game modes are available for the player and many settings can be customized. The game contains many presentation qualities that are modeled on real-life presentations, such as crowd animations, commentary, pre-game, halftime, and post-game shows, camera angles, lighting, and player animations.

NBA 2K17 was officially announced on April 13, 2016; the first trailer was revealed. It was released worldwide on September 20, 2016, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Players who pre-ordered the game received it on September 16, 2016. An iOS and Android version of the game was released on September 23, 2016. It is the 18th installment in the NBA 2K series and the successor to NBA 2K16.

Aside from the regular edition, a ‘Legend Edition’ of the game will be available for players to purchase; it features Kobe Bryant as the cover athlete and contains several physical and digital bonuses, such as a poster and Virtual Currency. (Additionally, a ‘Gold’ version of the ‘Legend Edition’ is also available, featuring further bonuses.) The 2015–16 NBA season was Bryant’s final season in the NBA so a special edition featuring Bryant was developed as a way of paying tribute to what many consider to be one of the greatest basketball players of all time. 

As such, NBA 2K17 and its ‘Legend Edition’ were announced on the day Bryant played his final NBA game in April 2016. Bryant was also the cover athlete of NBA 2K10. The standard edition cover art for the game, featuring Paul George of the Indiana Pacers, was unveiled in June 2016. George was chosen to be the cover athlete because he is an avid player of NBA 2K games. Visual Concepts also wanted a player who grew up idolizing Bryant.

The audio in the most recent installments of the NBA 2K series was something Visual Concepts and 2K Sports were “simply not satisfied with”. In an attempt to improve it, a team from Visual Concepts traveled to every arena used by NBA teams to record audio for use in the game. One focus was how ball dribbling and arena sound effects sounded; as a result, each arena in the game features distinct arena sound effects and unique dribbling sounds. Along with players’ faces and bodies being scanned into the game like in previous installments, shoes are now also scanned.

Madden 20

Madden NFL 20 is an American football video game based on the National Football League (NFL), developed by EA Tiburon and published by Electronic Arts. The latest installment in the long-running Madden NFL series, the game was released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Microsoft Windows on August 2, 2019. It features Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes as the cover athlete. Mahomes became the second player after Rob Gronkowski to win a Super Bowl the same season they were on the Madden cover.

Madden NFL 20 features a new “personalized career campaign” known as QB 1, following the journey of a player-created college quarterback from their participation in the College Football Playoff, to being drafted by an NFL team. Ten licensed college teams (Clemson, Florida State,  Miami,  Florida,  LSU,  Oregon,  USC, Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas Tech) from the ACC, Big 12, Pac-12, and SEC, are available in this mode. The mode acts as an updated version of the “Superstar Mode”, where the player would take their custom player and control them throughout a career, which was featured from Madden NFL 06 until its removal in Madden NFL 25.

In September 2019, EA Sports introduced another mode called Superstar KO, as part of the game’s first “season”. In each round, each team plays a drive from their 25-yard line to score a touchdown and a two-point conversion. If teams draw, the round is decided over a “tug-of-war”, where each team does three plays, and the team that advances furthest wins the round. After each round, the winner can draft a player from the rival’s team.

EA continued by including accessibility features for blind and visually impaired end users. Not least among these is menu narration, in which options are spoken aloud as the player navigates to them using synthesized speech. As part of his voice role for the game, Brandon advises via the game intro concerning accessibility settings and how to reach them. Other settings like image contrast and color-blind friendly settings are also available. While the majority of menus are narrated, some menus deep in the franchise, for example, are not narrated. An example of this is when you are scouting college players, are trying to purchase free agents or when you are attempting to complete the training. Menu narration is also notably absent from the in-game playbooks, although a text-only manual is available in the accessibility section of EA’s website.

Madden NFL 20 has been out for a while but I’m writing about it now because I tried playing every game mode in Madden.

Exhibition

In the exhibition you can play Online Head-to-Head, the Pro Bowl, you can Practice, and Play Now.

Ultimate Team

In Madden Ultimate Team(or MUT) you make a team of NFL stars. Then you play games against CPU or real people. It’s actually pretty fun. The Ultimate Team mode of Madden NFL 20 was criticized often for its lack of 99 OVR cards for many top-tier superstars, with the final content being released on July 7, 2020. Also because of the early end of content, Snoop Dogg called out EA through a tweet after EA announced that the July 7, 2020 release of the Power Up Expansions would be the last one.

PS5

The PlayStation 5 (PS5) is a home video game console developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. Announced in 2019 as the successor to the PlayStation 4, the PS5 was released on November 12, 2020, in Australia, Japan, New Zealand, North America, and South Korea, with a worldwide release following a week later. The PS5 is part of the ninth generation of video game consoles, along with Microsoft’s Xbox Series X and Series S consoles, which were released in the same month.

The lead architect of the PlayStation console line, Mark Cerny, implemented a two-year feedback cycle after the launch of the PlayStation 4. This entailed regularly visiting Sony’s first-party developers at two-year intervals to find out what concerns they had with shortcomings in Sony’s current hardware and how such hardware could be improved in console refreshes or for the next generation. 

The DualSense wireless controller for the PlayStation 5 was revealed on April 7, 2020. It is based on the prior DualShock controller but with modifications influenced by discussions with game designers and players. The DualSense controller has adaptive triggers with haptic feedback through voice coil actuators that can change the resistance to the player as necessary, supporting experiences such as virtually drawing an arrow from a bow. The DualSense maintains the same buttons as the DualShock 4, though the “Share” button was renamed to “Create” with additional means for players to create and share content. A new built-in microphone array was added so players can speak to others using only the controller, and the included controller speaker has been improved. It has two-tone coloring, primarily white with black facing, with the black piece being easily detachable. The light bar has been moved to the sides of the touchpad. It has USB-C connectivity, a higher-rated battery, and an audio jack.

Sony’s definition of consoles as distinct generations had been widely interpreted as an era-defining shift to PS5-exclusive games that exploit the console’s capabilities instead of releasing cross-generation games that play across both PlayStation consoles. Ryan said that there should be no disappointment as the PS5 versions take advantage of the console’s advanced feature set and initially planned that PS4 versions can be freely upgraded. Few major games such as Horizon Forbidden West are developed as concurrent releases for PS4 and PS5, and Sony supports any publisher that wants to offer enhanced versions of PS4 games at no additional cost.

Sony reported total shipments of the PS5 through its fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020, of 4.5 million units, which were similar numbers to the PS4’s launch shipments. Total shipments of PlayStation 5 reached 7.8 million by March 31, 2021, surpassing the 7.6 million units that the PlayStation 4 had shipped in its first two-quarters of release. Sony reported that as of July 18, 2021, 10 million PS5 units had been sold through, making the PlayStation 5 their fastest-selling console unit to date. The company later confirmed that by June 30, 2021, it had shipped 10.1 million consoles, indicating that nearly every shipped console had been sold as soon as it reached the market. Console shipments surpassed 13.4 million as of September 30, 2021. The company anticipated in August it has enough stock hardware to ship more than 22 million PS5 units by the end of its 2021 fiscal year in March 2022, but this was revised to 15 million units in November. Despite this, sales during the fiscal year 2022 were forecast to increase to 22.6 million units. Bloomberg News reported in January 2022 that Sony was continuing to produce the PlayStation 4 rather than discontinue it at the end of 2021 to help alleviate the shortage of PlayStation 5 while the chip shortage continued.

Valorant

Valorant is a team-based first-person hero shooter set in the near future. Players play as one of a set of Agents, characters designed based on several countries and cultures around the world. In the main game mode, players are assigned to either the attacking or defending team with each team having five players on it. Agents have unique abilities, each requiring charges, as well as a unique ultimate ability that requires charging through kills, deaths, orbs, or objectives. Every player starts each round with a “classic” pistol and one or more “signature ability” charges. Other weapons and ability charges can be purchased using an in-game economic system that awards money based on the outcome of the previous round, any kills the player is responsible for, and any objectives completed. The game has an assortment of weapons including secondary guns like sidearms and primary guns like submachine guns, shotguns, machine gunsassault rifles, and sniper rifles. There are automatic and semi-automatic weapons that each have a unique shooting pattern that has to be controlled by the player to be able to shoot accurately. It currently offers 18 agents to choose from. They are Brimstone, Viper, Omen, Cypher, Sova, Sage, Phoenix, Jett, Raze, Breach, Reyna, Killjoy, Skye, Yoru, Astra, KAY/O, Chamber, and Neon.

Unrated

In the standard non-ranked mode, the match is played as best of 25 – the first team to win 13 rounds wins the match. The attacking team has a bomb-type device called the Spike. They must deliver and activate the Spike on one of the multiple specified locations (bomb sites). If the attacking team successfully protects the activated Spike for 45 seconds it detonates, destroying everything in a specific area, and they receive a point. If the defending team can deactivate the spike, or the 100-second round timer expires without the attacking team activating the spike, the defending team receives a point. If all the members of a team are eliminated before the spike is activated, or if all members of the defending team are eliminated after the spike is activated, the opposing team earns a point. If both teams win 12 rounds, sudden death occurs, in which the winning team of that round wins the match, differing from overtime for competitive matches. Additionally, if after 4 rounds, a team wishes to forfeit that match, they may request a vote to surrender. If the vote is unanimous, the winning team gets all the victory credit for every round needed to bring them to 13, with the forfeiting team receiving losing credit. A team gets only two chances to surrender: one as the attackers and the other as the defenders.

Spike Rush

In the Spike Rush mode, the match is played as best of 7 rounds – the first team to win 4 rounds wins the match. Players begin the round with all abilities fully charged except their ultimate, which charges twice as fast as in standard games. All players on the attacking team carry a spike, but only one spike may be activated per round. Guns are randomized in every round and every player begins with the same gun. Ultimate point orbs in the standard game are present, but there are multiple power-up orbs instead.

Competitive

Competitive matches are the same as unranked matches with the addition of a win-based ranking system that assigns a rank to each player after 5 games are played. Players are required to win at least 10 unrated matches before being able to play competitive matches. In July 2020, Riot introduced a “win by two” condition for competitive matches, where instead of playing a single sudden death round at 12-12, teams will alternate playing rounds on attack and defense in overtime until a team claims victory by securing a two-match lead. Each overtime round gives players the same amount of money to purchase guns and abilities, as well as approximately half of their ultimate ability charge. After each group of two rounds, players may vote to end the game in a draw, requiring 6 players after the first set, 3 after the second, and thereafter only 1 player to agree to a draw. The competitive ranking system ranges from Iron to Radiant. Every rank except for Radiant has 3 tiers. Immortal & Radiant are reserved for the top 500 players in which there is a number associated with their rank allowing players in the top 500 to have a metric in which they can compare how they rank up to others at their level.

NBA 2K20

I think NBA 2K20 is a good game apart from all the glitches in the game. I feel like the MyCareer is one of the best in the last few years. The fact that you can choose the team you want to be on is a lot better than what it was in 2K18. The MyTeam in 2K20 is probably the best improvement in this game compared to 2K19. It is extremely fun and you can grind hours on MyTeam without getting bored. I won’t be talking about MyLeague today because it’s too simple.

The player mainly plays NBA games with real-life or customized players and teams; games follow the rules and objectives of NBA games. Several game modes are present and many settings can be customized. Up to six expansion teams can be created and used in both MyLeague and MyGM modes, with the possibility of a 36-team league, and any team can be relocated and rebranded. If you’re creating a team you can download jerseys and teams that people from the NBA community have made.

NBA 2K20 again, for the eighth time in the series, features MyTeam mode, a mode based around the idea of building the ultimate basketball team and maintaining a virtual trading card collection. Players assemble and play with their team in basketball tournament-style competitions against other players’ teams in several formats. Assets for a team are acquired through various means, including randomized card packs and the auction house. Virtual Currency (VC) is used extensively in the mode. Triple Threat Offline is changed to a ladder format where you accumulate wins to earn prizes. Domination is also changed, you now have to earn 5 stars in a division/section to advance to the next division/section, and each team now has three difficulties to choose from, the harder the difficulty, the more stars you get.

The game’s returning MyGM and MyLeague game modes, which task the player with managing all basketball operations for a specific team, were a point of emphasis during development. MyGM is more focused on realism, whereas MyLeague offers more customization options. MyGM mode attempts to introduce more cutscene-style interactions than previous games in an attempt to give the mode a storyline, which is dubbed My GM 2.0.

The player mainly plays NBA games with real-life or customized players and teams; games follow the rules and objectives of NBA games. Several game modes are present and many settings can be customized. Up to six expansion teams can be created and used in both MyLeague and MyGM modes, with the possibility of a 36-team league, and any team can be relocated and rebranded. If you’re creating a team you can download jerseys and teams that people from the NBA community have made.

Along with the current season’s teams and players, previous games in the series have featured NBA teams from past eras, such as the 1995–96 Chicago Bulls and the 1985–86 Boston Celtics. NBA 2K20 adds six more such teams, such as the 2015-16 Cleveland Cavaliers and the 2013-14 San Antonio Spurs.

As with other games in the series, the in-studio pregame and halftime shows are based on the real-life NBA on TNT presentations, featuring Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, and Shaquille O’Neal, with the latter two analysts also appearing as players on the 1993-94 Houston Rockets and 1994-95 Orlando Magic/2000-01 Los Angeles Lakers/2005-06 Miami Heat, respectively. During games, the announcers are Kevin Harlan, Greg Anthony, Chris Webber, Steve Smith, Clark Kellogg, and Doris Burke, with David Aldridge as the sideline reporters. Charles Barkley has not been added to the halftime show.

For the first time ever in the NBA 2K series, all twelve teams from the WNBA are included; however, they can be only used in Play Now (one-game exhibition) and single-season modes. It includes Candace Parker as well as other WNBA All-Stars. You cannot create rosters for the WNBA teams.

How the Lakers built a superteam. (2019-2020)

This season the Los Angeles Lakers have made some great and risky moves in the offseason. Today I will tell you what these moves were. Enjoy!

One of the first and best(in my opinion) moves that the Lakers made was trading for Anthony Davis. The Lakers were looking to trade for Anthony Davis for a while. Well, the Lakers had finally traded for him when they sent Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and some draft picks to the Pelicans for Anthony Davis. Well this was a bit of a risk but thankfully Anthony Davis has been playing great this season.

A good deal that the Lakers had made was signing Danny Green. The Lakers signed him on a $30 million dollar deal for 2 years. Well this was good because I feel like the Lakers need a better shooter than LeBron and Rajon Rondo.

A good deal that the Lakers made was picking up Avery Bradley because he just adds some defense at the Point Guard position. He can also shoot the ball good. We got on a 2 year $9.77 million dollar deal. On the Lakers Bradley can drop 20 a night so this was a good deal.

Okay. It’s time for the person you might or might not have been waiting for. Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard’s season with the Wizards was a poor season so Lakers fans were hoping Dwight could play good. This season Dwight’s been doing what the fans want him to do. He rebounded the ball well, scored inside, and was a BEAST on defense. This isn’t as good as his Orlando Magic days, but he has played really good. I mean he had a bad season with the Wizards. So to come back and play this good, Dwight deserves to be a part of the Lakers.

Next, we re-signed KCP. Well, he’s getting paid and doing pretty good on the Lakers. Sometimes he can have some games where he drops 20. Sometimes he can even get highlight plays. Like on Christmas where he chase-down blocked Landry Shamet.

A disappointing part of this season was when we signed DeMarcus Cousins, he got injured. So after a while we waived him to sign Markieff Morris. I mean, I was disappointed because I was looking forward to having Boogie play with AD again. If he never got injured, bro, we would reck even more.

You already know who’s coming. The GOAT, Alex Caruso. My boy Caruso is the Point God. Even though he’s a reserve he dunked on a snake (also known as Kevin Durant). Well we made the best move of the 2019-2020 season keeping Alex Caruso. Who know, without Caruso the Lakers probably would be an average team. If you don’t know already Alex Caruso has carried the Lakers to being the 1st seed in the Western Conference. This paragraph has been a joke so don’t say I don’t know anything about basketball, because that would be a lie.

Well that’s how the Lakers built there new superteam. To be honest, this team has the most potential at winning the Finals. I mean the Bucks are great, but they choke in the Playoffs. Well gorgen borgen.
