A big issue for all these pre 2010 prospects J-Wall, D-rose , Westbrick, O.J. Mayo and even Ty Lawson is that 5-6 years in they were caught in the steph curry analytics era where everyone was expected to shoot while they were still part of the 6”3 atheletic PG revolution.
As a basketball fan, it was great to see prime IT and John Wall. Damn shame what happened to the both of them. Just two more people added to the list of What If's.
@B_Falk IT overachieved alot for who he was coming into the league. You don't compare a 1st overall to the last pick in the draft. And Will didn't compare these two
great vid my man, on the same quality as some way bigger channels, i hope you get the subscribers you deserve! only critique would be the sounhd mixing, i thought the music was a tic too loud but maybe i simply dont hear good anymore. on topic: this males me really nostalgic i really miss the times a few years ago the middle and and of the 2010s were so great
He peeked early but nonetheless love what he did for the Wizards. Don't see why they don't just bring him back for 3 years or so till they get they act together
casual opinion right there, Wall was a threat - evidenced by how other great NBA players believed they could win with him. You're just some random on youtube hating on a great man's achievements.
@@brianminsk8 you cant be a threat in the league if you cant or dont shoot the ball and as much as i like JW and yeah he was an all star and made an all nba team but that doesnt change the fact that he couldnt shoot.
We all know exactly what happened to John Wall. The money became more important than the game to him. Other players are just injury prone, and some do their best to come back or stay healthy. Passion, should have driven him as it did since the day he held a basketball, but eventually money overran his desire, passion and love for the game. Simple as that....🤷🏽♂️
Yeah it's crazy how a lot of these players go hard and once they get that bag they're suddenly not showing there full talent anymore. Like idk how serious Zion's injury or health is but why is it dude hasn't played but he always showcasing his windmill dunks like 20 times before a game, smh...🤔lol
Gotta be a joke. Wall …man. Idk if it’s even worth this argument. I’ll just say the proof is there for anyone who cares to know that he played through all sorts of injuries and likely caused his achillies tear by grinding too hard while hurt AFTER he signed his big supermax during the 2017 off season. He literally tried to play postponing knee surgery in 17/18, sitting a dozen games, coming back , over and over, until finally knee surgery in January. Then in 2018/19, he tried to play the first 30 games dealing with plantar fasciitis and a bone spur on his heel. Eventually doctors convinced him to finally shut it down after he had been sitting one game, playing the next, etc. wizards DRs have literally been quoted as saying he wanted to tough it out TOO much and that’s likely what cost him in the end. After his achillies surgery he got a new DR and the report was that DR diagnosed what had been causing the bone spurs and other issues since 2014, undiagnosed tendinitis. DR said it was insanity he had been playing through all of these injuries. Anyone who followed walls career knows the one thing that’s clear is he is obsessed with playing hoop. This man nearly took his own life due to how much injuries forced him to not be on the court. Oh!!! Haha do you know what he even tried to convince rockets DRs to let him keep playing during the 2021 season even AFTER rockets were eliminated and had one of the worst records? He was playing with a thigh strain and a grade 2 hamstring strain! Legit! Fucking insane
no he’s not he’s simple af…i grew up wit wall in south side raleigh know bro personally…he from the trenches and due to the bum ass wizards paying him all that money he’s a hood success story but nba WHAT IF star…he got rich af and didn’t work on his jumper no reason joel embid can shoot better than wall he was always faster than everyone and didn’t need a jumper they should’ve surrounded him with solid shooters…oh well my nigga rich af
Lol this is so good it's like you're an industry plant. I'd say avoid the philosophical stuff if you're going to show your young face. Ppl don't want to hear deep stuff from kids. Fantastic video otherwise, 100k+ subs by end of next season easily, could go even higher if you produce more. Oh, most importantly, you have VERY GOOD rhythm and cadence of narration. That is a true rarity. Keep it up.
Nah John Wall was playing too many pickup games and not working on himself one and one. This nigga plays hard at the local gym 😅 like bruh you made it.. ain't nobody for you to prove shit to here fam 🤷🏾♂️😕🤣
What happened? Him not putting work in the gym and into his game is what happened. John Wall is the same player that came out of Kentucky, that is to say that he was a slasher who couldn't shoot. Never improved his offensive game, he thought that he couldn't rely on his athleticism forever, him being faster and more athletic than every defender that was guarding him in the league not named Rose. His career is a failure in that he was drafted as the #1 pick and had a ton of hype and expectations and he didn't live up to any of it.
He got injured twice and it was a wrap. We know very well what happened to him, it's not like it happened 20 yrs ago. Don't even see the point in watching this.

What are u talkin bout, Russ won an MVP in that era lmfao

Daaaamn this comment tho!🔥🔥🔥
His last name is Westbrook. That's why he is the way he is towards the media and fans. Other than that, your comment is spot on

Wall was a way better player than Isaiah Thomas quit being disrespectful
Imagine calling John wall a what if lol

Great video bro
Tragic NBA career but at least he succeeded in all other metrics.
GREAT intro brother just subscribed
He was a good guard who couldn't shoot. Was never a threat to win anything in the NBA.
Nah prime wall on the Washington was a beast.

John wall a hall of fame generational talent
John was good but he couldn't shoot. He could have revamped himself and gathered a jump shot. Bradley Beal is or was better than him.

Facts 🔥🔥🔥
Yup!! And All the championship rings pr0ve it!
If the NBA is consistent, he won't be back after next year.
youre so close to your mic my guy
Like all kentucky players most of them injury prone or NBA bust 🤔
😂😂😂
He'll be back
To correct this guy, it is not GARDNER, IT'S GARNER MAGNET HIGH. Cap City Baby. Raleigh,NC. Woop Woop
He became JOHN wick livin in the great WALL of china..
Boy did they smoke that 2011 draft. Jimmy Butler, Kawhi, Bogdanovic. IT was the final pick of the second round ffs
Alcohol and weed is all on this man’s face
Yeh, injuries derailed his later career
He played on the wizards 😂
Totally dependent on athleticism. With injuries comes less athleticism.

Any team would be better with John on it.
I’d have John on the warriors, he’d be great to lead the second unit.
They build him a wall
He wanted to be gang banger instead of a Hall of famer 😂. He was ja before Ja
Fact
Why no one using John Wall? He is a Great Player. I would choose Wall than Kyrie
Wasn't committed!

HE WILL NEVER PLAY FOR ANOTHER NBA TEAM AGAIN..

He still a hall of famer
@@TempoFadez1 nope
He got paid....
Good but never improved in key areas. Kind of a very poor mans Westbrook
#bbn
John wall thought he had it like that and sadly after injuries he noticed he not that
Algorithm is blessing you on this video 🫡
When you only depend on athleticism and don’t work on other ways to score the day injuries come is the day your career derails

Knee injuries

The best basketball player that is not in the nba
Dude need to stop complaining so much
Damm n wall was nasty
Injuries and his mom passing away.. simple. Didn't have to watch
John Wall lacked discipline, he wasn't dedicated to his craft. He depended on his talent, and clearly that only takes you so far.
He got paid way too much, thats what happened.
So what happen to John wall? Lol
Sounds like to me life happened?? Lol
