Ahead of Game 1 of the Finals tonight, ESPN drops a unique (to say the least) animated promo on Twitter featuring recaps of how Jokic and Butler’s respective teams made it here

I hope all the users here who campaigned for ESPN to hype up Jokic and the Nuggets are happy lol
woah Tatum just disintegrated.
xavier renegade angel vibes
That was obviously made by a Korean news station
The bowling alley screen after you get a strike:
Damn didn’t know Jokic could dunk like that
I think a couple years ago ESPN hired the guys that used to make those old Taiwanese animations. This is one of those
This had to have been done by the same artist that does freemium game adverts for cell phones
Alitomineek made it. Just enjoy it and stop hating. This shit is awesome
why are people hating this is fucking incredible
I can’t believe there’s a 2 Fast 2 Furious reference in this
This shit right here? Is exactly my type of shit
This fucking rules. Also what was Juwanna Mann doing there?
Complete fever dream type vibe
ESPN really played some 2K1 on Dreamcast, added custom rosters, and hit record.
Am I in r/nbacirclejerk ?
Any chance of TNT getting the broadcast rights before 8:30 tonight?
Please?
This is amazing
The 360 between the legs galactic football style dunk from Jokic is so cursed it’s good.
I just woke up and this keeps appearing on all of my feeds on all my socmed accts. This shit feels like a fucking fever dream. Am I in a fucking coma???
This honestly scared me
Did they use the DBZ sound effect for powering up when Jimmy floats in the air
This is Sharknado 3 lvl amazing
Some people will call it cringe, but this shit is hilarious.
That Jokic dunk lmfao
Holy shit this is awful but hilarious
This is insanely hard.
Did jokic do a Nba street Vol 2 gamebreaker dunk? This shit is hard as fuck idc what no one says
That was sooo fire 🔥🔥 awe man getting me excited for today game, lets goo Miami !!
That is simultaneously the best and worst thing I have seen on this sub
Unironically 10/10 no notes
Getting Taiwanese news flashbacks from 2011 right about now,
ESPN: how do i reach these keeeeds
That broom by Jokic at the end was cold
I thought that L Jokic pulled out was a gun for half a second, I almost lost it. 😂
This is unexplainable, worrying, hilarious, awful, fun, cringe and psychedelic at the same time… I need to watch it at 4:20
I unironically love this
Today I learned that the NBA animation budget is 5 dollars.
Well now I just want to see LeBron get postered like that for real.
This is fascinating. Is ESPN self-aware enough to realize that something this shitty can actually gain steam? Was that the intention from the start? It’s toeing the line of satire so closely that I genuinely cannot tell, and maybe that in and of itself is art, but ESPN’s track record makes me think that they just beefed it so hard that they struck gold by accident.
Started with disbelief and disgust.
Ended with watching it multiple times. ESPN just created an all-time shitpost.
That Jokic poster on Lebron, eerie how well they animated that play. Down to the T of how it really happeend
I want to consume all of my sports and world politics news this way.
Can someone do one on the Ukraine war?
