It’s crazy that every dominate team this era either had lebron curry Durant or kawhi in it. Just like the 2000s always had shaq Kobe or Duncan in it. Every era has a very select few players that dominate it. You get your occasional outliers but for the most part the NBA has always been an era by era league. Which is why the goat debate thing is tiring and boring because there could never be one goat because basketball evolves so much.
Agree the entire goat debate is stupid. There is not true goat. It’s not MJ, or Wilt, Kobe, Kareem, Bill Russell, or Lebron. We can never definitively say who’s the goat. Because there isn’t one singular player.
I maintain that the 2020 Raptors could make it to the finals and possibly even beat the Lakers if they face anybody BUT the Celtics that year. It was the worst possible matchup for us. Boston always wrecks Toronto in the 2000s, no matter the sport
MIA, GSW, OKC, SAS, HOU, LAC, MEM, POR… I think the Western Conference in the mid-2010s was at the highest level in NBA history. Personally, I can't imagine the NBA without LeBron.
Gah lee this dude ignores context soooo much when he talks about stuff, sometimes it seems like he tries to throw out as much surface level information as possible and just skips anything else 🤦🏼♂️
Yeah. I think the Mavericks one needs a lot more context on why people left since there was an original plan of Dwight and CP to join the team which didn't end up happening.

Damn, Tuck. No mention of the Bogut injury in 2016? Warriors lost a starter who was a #1 overall draft pick, former blocks leader, member of multiple all defensive teams, and who was a huge part of their identity- yet his name wasn't mentioned at all. Crazy.
raptors could've gone back to back if kawhi stayed. going to the clippers was a big mistake career-wise. they still haven't won since he signed and they probably won't any time soon. he has 2 rings so he's collecting his retirement fund at this point
I hate that narrative that Kris requested a trade because unhappiness or wacky decisions. Remember they were trying to trade him on draft night for Eric blesode and Paul George. Also the rumors of Lebron going to LA Were loud. Ky didn’t want to be left on that deprecated cavs team so he got out early
Spurs are not a dynasty Also I get to hear kobe haters shit on him for losing to the suns in the first round. Never hear anyone clown Duncan for losing to the clippers for losing in 7 games first round
They were a dynasty buddy the won 5 ring in 15 yrs buddy from 1999- they first ring too 2014 and also won 3 in 10 yrs so yeah they was a dynasty and they had the highest winning percentage in that time span and didn’t miss the playoffs
Difference is they were old and the spurs were fatigued, losing some core pieces. That series still went to 7 games and it took a buzzer beater by Chris Paul to beat them. The suns didn’t have amare in 2006 and lakers couldn’t close out despite being 3-1. What if Tim Thomas missed the game winning shot in game 6
2011 was a wild season and had a wilder playoffs
Great vid tucker love ur stuff
Thanks!
that 2011 mavs championship is one of the most well deserved in nba history

GSW won a ring with that 'remains' of mid 2010s team in 2022. Lmao.
Fringe contenders is crazy
Lebron sucked them dry and left when the host started dying.
Like the parasite he is.

Toronto gets wrecked by LeBron though. He even owned the city for some time back in 2018.

Tucker became a quantity over quality guy, content-wise
2010 onwards, the '14 spurs, '11 mavs, '15 warriors, '23 nuggets and '19 raptors are my favorites in that exact order.
No '16 Cavs?

Great job here. Might be your best!
I'm glad Kevin Durant took his name off of the "top 10 best players to never win a ring", going to the Warriors was the best decision he ever made.
Kawhi got his revenge on those 2017 Warriors.
But he wasn’t able to get his revenge of Wes Unseld 🤡
if Golden State is health in 2019 then win it no doubt in my mind
Minor mistake. game 7 was in GS in 2016
Every time people bring up that cp3 trade they just gloss over the league not letting it happen 😭
Please do the 2000s
Big W vid
Nobody covers Kobe was playing with a knee that needed surgery in 2011. Kobe was literally not practing and playing only 32 mins a game
raptors could've gone back to back if kawhi stayed. going to the clippers was a big mistake career-wise. they still haven't won since he signed and they probably won't any time soon. he has 2 rings so he's collecting his retirement fund at this point
It's Dirk NoVitski. In German, W is V!
Who's more at fault? Kd joining the warriors or warriors recruiting him
Kd joining he had the power
Teams like the cavs were recruiting him as well so it was his decision. Wizards were a another target
Didn’t care to mention why the lakers super team didn’t work? Or why they got swept in the playoffs? You can do better.
Best nba decade?
Tucker became a quantity over quality guy, content wise.
Heat Thunder series was rigged

Claim your 41 minute and 31 seconds minute or under ticket here
"31 seconds minute"
Between the Lebron Heat and the Durant Warriors, Warriors would smoke the Lebron Heat in 5 or 6
Such a fun team to watch. I'm a laker fan too. Durant shouldve stayed. He would probably still be a top 3 player if he did
Shit heat in 7
if only perkins was in Game 7 of BOS VS LAL Finals then they should win and did not lose with that 73-77 low scoring game
Perkins yall savior now lmao
2011 is the main reason I think Lebron is not the goat, since he lost to a bunch of old farts.
So much hate in one sentence

Spoiler alert to what happened to one of these 2010's Champions:

Tucker come on now you know LeBron tried to trade Kyrie & he found out let’s not play dumb
Why tf is LeBron shooting left handed
good video. it would be even better if you stop making them 😂 the most basic video
In conclusion Steph Curry needs other All stars to win a finals
