Bob Dandridge: One of the Most Complete Players Ever

- Bob Dandridge didn’t have many holes in his game. He had so many ways to score, whether it be a post fade, a one legged runner in the lane, or a leaning midrange out of the triple threat, then he would lock down the opponent’s best player on the other end. He was a great rebounder for his position and he could bring the ball down the court and find open teammates . Bob was drafted out of Norfolk State by a loaded Bucks team who had Kareem, the best young center in the league, as they would trade for Oscar Robertson in 1970. Bob was an All-Star level player in Milwaukee for several years, even helping them win a title in 1971. After he left the Bucks, he signed with the Bullets and continued his stellar production, playing the best basketball of his career and helping them win a title in 1978. Bob finally got his recognition as one of the best forwards ever, when he finally got into the Hall of Fame after 40 years in 2021. I think it’s only right that we look at the legendary career of the Greyhound.

I always liked that Unseld-Hayes-Dandridge front line.
Great front line.
yes those Bullets years were elite also
Norfolk state
Underrated I’m 59 one of my favorite players from that era also Gus Williams and bob love
One of my favorite players in the 70’s
Dandridge was superb.
Dandridge was a great player. It should have never taken until 2021 to get into the HOF. He stats compare favorably with other players who made it earlier.
Bobby D neutralized Dr. J in 78 playoffs. Bullets won in 6 over the 76ers and went on to win the NBA title.
Another 757 Legend!
757 or 804?
He was a great player who finally got into the hall of fame.There are great clips of him on TH-cam playing against the legend John havlicek it is game six of the bucks celtics NBA finals series ...one of the few times I ever saw dandridge struggle.. havlicek was such a great player
Hi Peezy, that was a great video on a great player. If you haven’t done a video on Oscar Robertson, I highly recommend it because he was truly unique averaging a triple double for several seasons and was a matchup nightmare versus the guards during his playing days. By the way, I was nine years old at this time and I can vividly recall listening to a Knicks- Royals game on the radio, and BobCousy inserted himself in the game as he was a player coach and actually scored a basket and provided an assist. Something I’ll never forget because I never got to see him play his prime. At the time he was 40 years old. Which was really old for a basketball player in the pros.
I just suggested a doc on Bobby Dandridge last week. Peezy, you are the man. Great channel and great content.
Much appreciated
Gratitude.
I'm watching this and thinking about Kevin Porter who played for the Bullets early in his career and led the league in assists multiple times. You should do a video on him. I'd like to see it.
I am from Philly.
And what I remember about bobby dandrige Now I love me some Doctor j Julius Irving.
But Defense was not one Of his strong points And I have to say it every time they Faced one another Bobby Used to light him up like a Christmas true. He is One of those n b a players who you have to be a real Student of basketball and the NBA to appreciate how good he was.
I hated that the first time the Bucks played the Kings in Omaha in 1973, Bob was injured and didn't make the trip. Kings won by 2. Kareem was my guy, but I always thought Bob's game was solid.
Sooooo many forgotten players. These guys had to combine athletics with the rules. Note, Norfolk State! These guys were hungry and not entitled. I don't want to be long winded. For instance, how do one judge Kobe's 81 over Baylor's 71 with no three's?

Bob Dandridge is now deceased.
DeBusschere beating up on Dandridge was the mismatch that allowed the knicks to beat the bucks.
So we’re Dominique Wilkins & Benard King; but i don’t see you doing a video on them!
Kind of like a version of Scottie pippen
@@erablaktv true, i would give him a Kawhi Leonard comp as well
scotty pippen great comparison yes
I RESPECTFULLY HATE BOBBY DANDRIDGE FOR HITTING THAT SHOT TO BEAT MY BELOVED SPURS IM 66 YEARS OLD AND THE FIRST SPURS FAN IN NEW YORK CITY I HAVE NEVER RECOVERED FROM THAT
kareem was a lazy dude boy i swear if he played like his hair was on fire my god or a matter of fact if he played like wilt o my god and kobe said that about shaq he said shaq was lazy and one time shaq was calling for the ball from kobe and kobe told him work for it and shaq didnt say a word back to kobe thats when shaq wanted out and they traded him to miami
