NBA 2K17 is still taking pot shots at NBA Live which is, its chief rival for basketball video game supremacy.

For gamers, this Easter Egg was mainly poking fun at the NBA Live installment entitled NBA Elite 11. EA Sports ill-fated reformatting of its franchise was met with tons of bad publicity, thanks to development problems prior to being release.
