The bad boys in the modern era. Everyone says they couldn't win without old rules. Lambieer is also one of the only older stretch bigs, it would be interesting to see him with modern spacing.
You forgot to change salaries of Giannas which explains why they didn’t sign anyone in the early eras. For example: Giannes-40 ish million Scottie pippen and MJ- 10 mil
Challenge idea: Do another NBA player fusion but with a twist. Use one wheel to spin 2 different eras, and use another to find the team you will get those players from. Once you get team and the era, use a random number generator (1-3) to see which players you will be combining.
Put Ben Simmons in every era. He’s such a solid player who has a major weakness at shooting. See how he does in eras where the 3 point shot wasn’t as important and necessary.
You gotta turn down the foul rates. The older eras will have players driving more so the bigs will usually foul out. Guards will have a better career in these videos until thats tuned
Hey Kenny! Do the Oldies music rebuild challenge: Build a 10 man rotation with players that meet the following criteria: 1. Johnny B Goode: a player who's seen his name in lights. A superstar of your choice. 2. King Creole: Someone who's "jumping like a catfish on a pole". Must have 87+ athleticism. 3. Runaround Sue: a story that's sad but true. A player who has backstabbed his team by leaving in free agency. 4. The Wanderer: a player who has played for 4+ teams. 5. Can't help falling in love: choose a lifer who has fallen in love with the city he plays for. 6. Can't help myself: a player who has averaged 4+ fouls for a season 7. Georgia in my mind: a current or past Hawks player. 8. Good Vibrations: a veteran leader in the locker room. Must be 35 or older 9. The boxer: must have had 8+ technical fouls in the 2021-2022 season 10. Lean on me: a player who has an NBA sibling or parent Good luck!!!
26:07 if you haven’t seen the clip what Kenny is trying to say is that Shaq said “people said to me, you couldn’t play today. But I am playing today, My name is the Greek Freak” basically Giannis is Modern day Shaq
The Baseball Challenge: Win a championship having a 10 man rotation Everyone plays 24 mins - pls like this so kenny can see!! Players: 1-10: 1-Pitcher: Accurate.

A player that has 80 or above close shot and mid range, but a 3 point less that 80. 8-Center field: Fast. Hits for contact. Speed 82 or above and mid range 85 or above. 9-Right field: Often the best hitter overall. Not very good at defense. A forward that has an average 80 or better of Close Shot, Mid Range, and Three point. Must have less than 80 Perimeter and Interior defense. 10-Designated Hitter: This player is a bad defender but good hitter. Usually slow. Like a right fielder on steroids. 2-5 overall higher than right fielder.
Video idea: Create 4 different gods at 4 different aspects of the game and add them to the draft. 1. A Shooting GOD, make a 6'6 SG with all 99 outside shooting stats and give all the HOF Shooting badges with 99 shot tendencies, leave the rest of the stats as the position average. 2. A playmaking GOD, make a 6'3 PG with all 99 playmaking stats and give all HOF playmaking badges with 99 playmaking tendencies, leave the rest of the attributes as the position average 3. A Finishing GOD, make a 7'1 Center with all 99 scoring stats and give all the HOF Shooting badges with 99 inside scoring tendencies, leave the rest of the stats as the position average 4. A Rebounding/Defensive GOD, make a SF or PF of your choice from 6'8 to 6'11 with all 99 rebounding and defensive stats with all rebounding/defensive badges with all 99 tendencies for these, the rest of the stats position average. To be fair to all of them, give them all 99 in all athletic stats and have them with 0 bust potential so they won't regress
Day 2 of asking Kenny to do “New year, new Kenny”. I think it’s finally time for Kenny to go 82-0, and with this hopefully it happens. Kenny gets 1 free 95+ player from any era. He also gets Jalen Green (Trade Value), rookie Lebron (Overpowered), can get any nba player and give him 99 potential, and 3 of the 1st overall picks from the next 3 drafts. We love you Kenny, and I think this would be a fun video.
Day 316 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.
Foul rates need to be turned down by about 6-8 points per era for the fouls and frees to feel era appropriate, though the numbers may need a little tweaking
Day 175 of asking Kentrell to do the fix challenge. You add a legend, of your choosing, to each team. But they have to be a position that fixes that team. So for example the bulls weakest position in the starting lineup is pf, so you'd add
ive been talkin about this for a couple years now. give the pc guys and gals next gen version. they got the te h and when the 2k modding community get they hands on that bad boy itll be the 2k all sim heads been dreaming about
Challenge: I call it “The People’s MVP to League MVP” it’s a challenge where you take a tan favorite player for example Bobby Portis and do what you can to make him the league MVP, but still be good enough to win a championship and possibly be finals MVP
BIG 3 CHALLENGE: Make a league where its only teams that contained a Big 3 BUT you must swap 1 player from each Big 3 and see if they either preform better or worse. I would love to see Lebrons Big 3 swap with Jordans Big 3 or Magics Big 3 swap with Birds Big 3 etc, etc.
the reason Vandweghes name is banned ig, is because his niece(CoCo Vandeweghe) a tennis player got in trouble for slurs and cursing someone out and maybe even racial ive heard and the topic was sensitive for a short bit and UA-cam just banned it
Another idea, inverted draft class, simming through all the years. 1983 uses 2022 -Paolo, Chet, Smith 1984 uses 2021 -, Cade, Mobley, Scottie 1993 uses 2012 - Davis, Lillard, Green, 1994 uses 2011- Kawhi, Kyrie, Klay, Kemba, Butler, Thomas 1996 uses 2009 - Curry, Harden, Derozan, Griffin, 1997 uses 2008 - Rose, Westbrook, Love 2002 uses 2003 - Lebron, Wade, Melo, Bosh Imagine that 2003 coming into a leauge where that 2011 Class are the guys they looked up to. 2009 uses the 1996 class - 2021 uses the 1984 class

Just an idea for these flashback sims, don't just follow the players and watch. Be their coach so they can play a little more realistic but still fit the era. Mess with the rotations and tendencies to max them out. Love these videos :)
Thanks for clarifying lol. I didn't know why you couldn't say his name. Ik YT never gives reasoning for anything they do smh... Also great videos as always. You're one of the few people I can watch a 45min plus video of and enjoy it all the way through.
@@zerrothewolf8316 he said in a pod that he can’t say Kiki Vandeweghe’s name because the youtube bots that review videos interpret it as an anti-semitic slur that sounds similar
I feel like you should mess with shot tendencies. Giannis is shooting over 60% from the field but only averaging 26 points. If he just took more shots he would be scoring a lot more
You guys are gonna love this! Challenge idea: mesh all 3 eras into a single league, fantasy style rebuild, let the assistant GM draft for you per usual, try to win 3 rings in 5 years.
Challenge Idea: In the current era, delete each teams' highest ranked player and REPLACE them with their respective franchises' greatest all time player. For example, delete DeRozan and replace him with Michael Jordan.

Sick idea
"supposed to be better defensively" The 1980s were the second highest scoring decade in NBA history behind the 1960s.
Alex English was responsible for most of those buckets in the 80s
Cause people think of shit like the Jordan rules and think every person in the league was getting clotheslined on lay ups 😂

Why YT don't want you to say Kiki Vandweghe? I google searched him and didn't find any controversy.

In an Alternate Universe, Jermaine O’Neil is the best NBA player of all time
That breakdown of the average of fouls was crazy. Thank u
I can't wait to see this with Luka cause real life and sim Luka goes crazy in 2k23
Foul rates need to be turned down by about 6-8 points per era for the fouls and frees to feel era appropriate, though the numbers may need a little tweaking

Can someone explain why he can’t say Kiki name? I remember him saying that last time but forgot to ask.
Ben Simmons in the Magic/Bird Era.
What was the reason from UA-cam that they took video down because of Kiki Vandeweghe?
Challenge: I call it “The People’s MVP to League MVP” it’s a challenge where you take a tan favorite player for example Bobby Portis and do what you can to make him the league MVP, but still be good enough to win a championship and possibly be finals MVP

I would love to see Lebrons Big 3 swap with Jordans Big 3 or Magics Big 3 swap with Birds Big 3 etc, etc.
a video of nothing but a league of big 3 teams would be interesting aswell though to see what big 3 is "best"
Career sim idea. Start in the Kobe era and sim Greg Oden’s career. See how he does without all the injuries
Dont turn off foul outs but you can lower the foul sliders
please finish the winning a championship with every team series
Gotta place him on a decent team. At least mids, then see what he can do. Bet Giannis gets a ring then.
heres another idea: rebuild the lob city clippers since cp3 is ur favourite player. lets see some realistic rebuilds using these new eras
I need a prime Derrick Rose episode in this series 💪💪💪
Respect the thumbnail and title switch. Giannis gonna get 3 more rings irl.
Kenny, turn down the foul tendency instead of just turning it off. That way it keeps it more realistic
15:05.
Happened to Dave Cowens 1972-73 season
Do Westbrook Next!!! We need to see him without shooting 3's
That’s Buns in the Bulls V Lakers finals Scottie should’ve been that FMVP. And back in the AI era Philly had a silky jersey… Black, White and Blue.
I wonder why you can’t say Kiki VanDeweghe
Can we mention that the only reason why Giannis didn't win ROTY is because he's technically a sophomore? Kenny forgot to make him a rookie 2:11
It's a sign Kenny! U gotta do a video with JOHN DREW!!!! I SEEN IT! U GOTTA DO IT MAN
you gotta set the foul sliders slower. its wild how often players foul out
Like Mike is one of my favorite movies from childhood lol. T. Mac adopted him at the end right?
Bro.. they tricked me. The guy that adopted him was named Tracy but.. my brain remembered it being the real t Mac. Not some actor lol
the reason Vandweghes name is banned ig, is because his niece(CoCo Vandeweghe) a tennis player got in trouble for slurs and cursing someone out and maybe even racial ive heard and the topic was sensitive for a short bit and UA-cam just banned it
Upvote this if Kenny should do more rebuilds and challenges instead of career simss

1997 uses 2008 - Rose, Westbrook, Love
2002 uses 2003 - Lebron, Wade, Melo, Bosh

now u gotta do a d-lo eras video 😂 i hope he ball out like that
Kenny you know you can turn off the filter in the older eras in settings
I have a video idea you have to start with only less then 65 overall and you have 3 seasons to win a championship and have one mvp
If mj got roy instead if Hakeem he woulda had all 5 awards in this sim
YT taking a video down for saying someone's name is a new low
if you land on a team that don’t exist put him in free agency
