Thanks, appreciate it! I am planning on doing both of those too :)

And yeah, sure, feel free to let me know if there's something you'd like to see and I'll try to fit in

⁠​⁠@@HardwoodFilms99 Knicks vs Bulls in the 90’s (though a bit one sided, but super fun and highly dramatic) Boston vs Detroit in the mid to late 80’s (Laimbeer being a dirty player to Bird) Spurs vs Suns between 2005-2010 Knicks vs Heat between 1997-2000 Spurs vs Mavericks between 2001-2014 Lakers vs Sixers NBA Finals battles in the early 80’s Jazz vs Rockets between 1994-1998 Kings vs Mavericks in the early 2000’s Sonics vs Rockets in the mid 90’s Sonics vs Jazz in the mid 90’s

If you don’t respect the past there is no respect for you in the future

bruh kobe was allowed to eat in peace bec shaq was commanding double and triple teams.

@@ForEducationalPurposesOnly loooooool u never watched the Lakers when kobe and Shaq were playing did u?... Thats such an ignorant answer if u really play or watch the NBA closely.... First of all Shaq was a center if he's getting double teamed its not gonna be from guards, it'll be from centers and forwards... Since kobe is a guard his man will never leave him to guard Shaq especially when kobe plays on the perimeter and not inside...secondly kobe was also getting doubled team cause he was a scoring threat , it was Horry, fisher, and fox who benefited from the double teams.... U should study basketball more cause what u said makes no sense, just a generic answer with no context.

@@rudykadous4005 I did. I'm 37 years old and Kobe literally lost them the 04 finals

@@rudykadous4005 no context? So Kobe didn't benefit from having Shaq getting double and triple teamed every possession? Are you on crack? I'll give you real context right now. 4 finals appearances with Shaq, only 1 finals he shot over 42% and twice under 40%. In those 4 finals he was more likely to shoot under 40% than over 42%😂and Shaq shot over 57% in all 4 of the finals together.In the 2004 finals Kobe shot them out that series. Kobe against the pistons was 43-113(.381%) and Shaq against the pistons was 53-84(.631%) Kobe shot 29 more shots and made 10 less. Not to mention only 2.8 boards per game. Nuff said on that. Then if we go to the 2004 West finals against the wolves. Shaq shot 56% and Kobe shot 41%. That's not good. He shot 44 more shots than Shaq that series and only made 7 more. The round before that against the Spurs. He shot 45 more shots than Shaq and only made 6 more. then in the first round against the rockets. He shot 35 more than Shaq and only made 5 more for a legendary 38%Lmao he is so lucky he had Shaq on his team.. imagine if he didn't have him getting all that attention how bad his shooting splits would have been

@@ForEducationalPurposesOnly he didn't benefit cause kobe was getting double teamed as well... In all the playoffs that Shaq and mine were in Shaq Averaged 28ppg and kobe average 27ppg... Kobe doesn't benefit from Shaqs double team just like Shaq doesn't benefit from kobes double team since he's a guard and once a center....on the scouting report it literally says foul Shaq and double team kobe... Why would anyone leave kobe free?...thats not gonna happen.... No one leaves kobe opened period...ive seen one get triple teamed and still drop buckets...ive never seen LeBron get tripled team let alone double teamed and drop buckets...hes one demsenional since he came into the league ... He puts his head down and drives to the rim thats all he does and that's all he will ever do cause he has no bag

I'll take Jordan and Pippen over Shaq and Kobe,you get better defense from both players and better passing too. Kobe would get his eyes glued to the rim wayyy-TOO-at times during games,over-looking open team-mates.

@@user-be7tc2bd6e ur opinion but ur reasoning makes no sense...kobe and Shaq are both play elite defense ....aint nothing Pippen gonna do to Shaq whether on offense or defense...and mj and kobe are a mirror match they cancel each other out...thats facts

@@rudykadous4005 When has-LAZY-Shaq ever actually played any GOOD one-on-one defense against any one in the nba ??? ZERO. LOL. Kobe is more interested in out shining Shaq for the-MVP-of the finals than guarding folks,that's one of the reasons the Lakers lost against the Pistons in the 2004 finals. 4005,you need to go back and watch some of those old Bulls games where Pip and MJ were stealing the ball for break away dunks left and right.The Bulls would put on a press after they scored on the other team to create turn-overs,which led to lay-ups and dunks.And whatever-DRAMA-the Bulls had behind the scenes ( unlike Kobe and Shaq's high-school issues,they were both acting like teenagers ) they settled it,then went out to crush the opposing team.

Cry baby. You’re the guy at 24 that calls offensive fouls.

@@bf6639 I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

Thanks! Appreciate it! :)

U spelled cheated wrong

Who do you think would win in a 7 game series the Warriors ( with Steph and Klay ) or the 2001/2002 Kings ( with a healthy Webber )

Lebron and Shaq would’ve swept the Kings. Who’s guarding Lebron on the Kings?

@@KAHLIL216 Lebron might have been an upgrade on THAT Kobe, but do you think Lebron could've led the 2010 Lakers to the championship?

haha It's about 80% done now so will be up soon :) And thanks a bunch for the support!

Game 4 from the 2000 finals always kills me man - will never wrap my head around why Travis took the final shot in regulation instead of Reg

one season in the playoffs isnt a rivalry

I"m not sure if this was a compliment but thanks i guess lol

Thanks! Good to see you in the comments again Jordan! :)

Or Divac and company could have just grabbed a defensive rebound in Game 4 after both Kobe and Shaq bricked shots instead of tipping it right to Horry and the series would been 3-1 series over

@@davis2k1234doesn’t mean the league didn’t blatantly cheat the Kings out of a finals appearance. They did this a lot during the post Jordan years because their ratings tanked. They cheated the Suns (vs. spurs), Portland (vs. lakers) and the kings here.

@@LyricalMurderer1 No Blazers literally choked that game 7 no one to blame but them selfs if anything Lakers were up 3-1 and refs helped Portland force a game 7 then Suns was stupid they just enforcing the new rules after the brawl in Detroit and Kings had 1 bad officiated game out of 7 that has happened to plenty of teams grab a defensive rebound in game 4 series over

The refs helped the kings in game 5 🤷🏾‍♂️ but everyone never bring that up

​@@jaycarlos3559 I remember back in 2006 a old TH-cam video show's how Lakers cheated, that time the theory of video is Sacramento was White to support

Shhhhh don't tell this to lebronians

When cheating was real… “fixed” it for you… literally.

@@LyricalMurderer1 your talking bout the present era when cheating is a Fact 💉💉💉

Thanks Manuel! Appreciate it. Part 2 will cover the controversy so stay tuned :)

The 2002 series will be covered in the next part. Mentioned it in the description and at the end of the video too :) That game alone needs a video lol.

@@HardwoodFilms99 Well please do that game justice.

Kings choked away Game 4 should been up 3-1 series over so sick of the refs narrative they choked in game 7 too

@@davis2k1234point is there should’ve never been a Game 7…

@@Supreme36074 As if the Kings are the only team to have bad officiated game in a 7 game series in the history of the NBA that has been known for bad officiating going back forever

Thanks so much! Really appreciate it :)

Its definitely on the list, but working on one from the west at the moment

I actually have an episode planned on the Pistons and Celtics so I held off on some of those details intentionally. I was tempted to mention Laimbeer spitting on the leprechaun at Boston Garden though

haha I was actually concerned I'm making these videos too long, but thanks again! :)

Magic was coming off back to back mvp seasons , bird had a hall of fame stacked team , mj did not , what’s your excuse for his two three peats ? Were those teams old too ? HIV did not effect magic in 91 , so that’s excuses from you young fanboys . What’s Lebrons excuses for losing over and over in Cleveland , and realizing he’s been 7 years into his career , and hasn’t won nothing ? He jumped ship to Miami , and brought Bosh in with him , and ray Allen . What’s his excuse for 2011 ? And 2014 ?

Whoah Kauffamn1016 that's a lot of questions. 🤣🤣 Right here you go. Yep basketball is a team game. The Celtic team swept Bulls each year until Bird became a creaking wreck from injuries and age. But it wasn't just the Celtics fault cos MJ had yet to learn that you can't win if one guy takes all the shots. Even if you score 63. MJ helped Bulls win threepeats in a NBA that had become much less competitive after that generation of HoF players like Moses Dr j Bernard McHale Kareem Price Sampson Nique Magic Isaiah Bird etc all got too old to compete. I agree that Bulls were eventually better than the Lakers in 91. MJ had learned to pass by then and Lakers were geriatric. Hope this helps.

@@denbrown3676 any player gets better as the years go by , experience, learning to play as a team , chemistry , and camaraderie . Fact is , Jordan didn’t stand a chance against that Celtics team , and his team kept getting Beat by the pistons , but he didn’t give up , he figured it out. Mj kept a lot of teams from winning anything in the 90s , but some “fans” claim it wasn’t as competitive , but it had a lot of great talent , in fact , their are more top 75 players that played in the 90s than the 80s , but you believe what klutch says I guess , gotta think for yourself , and do a little research . Jordan did more with a team he had than what bird , Moses , Dr j , magic , shaq , Kobe , lebron , and zeke did , just to name a few. He just so happened to be a rookie in 84’ when magic and bird were terrorizing the league , broke his foot the next season , so you could look at it a little more objectively , and say mj might have not of won his first 5 or 6 years starting out in the league against bird and Magic’s team , and zekes , but he damn sure figured it out , and kept other teams from winning anything , and hof players from even winning a single chip . Mj still had a better career than basically everyone else in basketball .
