19 Best Intros In Sports Video Games History

4. NBA 2K12

Oddly enough, Kurtis Blow's Basketball is probably the most popular song about basketball. With this classic song, the creators had already showed great respect for the game, but what happens in the video is every NBA fans' dream: Dennis Rodman fights for a rebound with Dwayne Wade, Chris Paul gets past Gary Payton, while Derrick Rose passes to Michael Jordan who takes off from the free throw line for the dunk.

NBA legends have appeared in video games before, but not in intros and not like this.
