‘At 7’2″, from Kansas, number 21, Joel, the Processssss, Embiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid!”

That’s Matt Cord getting the home crowd pumped up for your team, your town, your 76ers, and now he’s making his video game debut.

This is cool:

That’s pretty gnarly as a personal accomplishment. Imagine telling your kids that you’re in a video game.

And it’s an improvement overall, because you used to get this generic announcer and there was some flair missing from the game. It was vanilla in that regard. Now you can pick your hometown guy to voice your team.

Make sure to select Matt Cord as your PA announcer in the new NBA2K. And then you roll out the Sixers starting lineup of Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, Seth Curry, Danny Green, and Damian Lillard.
