@@branruss1942 Jordan was the defining influencer on basketball culture as well as pop-culture during the 80's/90's and Iverson did the same in the 2000's with clothes, tattoos, music and style. how is that not a passing of the torch?
I dunno if it's been said its been said in the comments or not, but putting popcorn in a rookies car is actually a sign of respect, it's meant to be a way of saying "rookie hazing is over, you're one of us now." It's not even ruining his car, but even if it was, the dudes gonna be a millionaire in two years easy, so I think the upgrade is coming.
My dad when he was young liked to play pick up basketball in the 70's at Venice Beach, and if you don't know that is like the highest league of pick games. There was this dude who was the UCLA center and just got drafted in the nba and wanted to play some pick up games for fun and to stay warm. And he literally wiped the floor with everyone on the court. Dude was like 6 10, and crazy athletic, Made my dad realize the difference between good amateurs and professionals
There's a quote that I really like, but I forget who it came from. It goes something like "The worst bench warmer in the NBA is so much closer to Michael Jordan than you ever will be to him (the worst bench warmer)". That really puts things in perspective lol
The best thing you can do as a rookie in the NBA is just execute your rookie duties and take the hazing. The ones who push back or think they are too big for it just get it worse and for longer. Even guys like Shaq who was unstoppable as a rook and bigger than everyone stature wise took it like a champ. It's just a right of passage for players as the NBA is a brotherhood.
Lmao I’ve heard Shaq told his team mates on the magic he wasn’t going to do his duties because the team was building around him, but I think he eventually came around.
The Chris Paul thing with Wade and Melo is more funny when you realize that he's around the same age, just drafted in a later year. They were only like 1-2 years in the league at that point.
There is a video by JxmyHighroller called the truth about the GOAT debate. It is a video essay about LeBron vs. Jordan. I know you guys are not hardcore fans, so the topic is new, but the video really does make you appreciate the two and how they were head and shoulders above everyone else to ever play. I would highly recommend.
You would think The NBA started in 1995 based on this vid? How could Magics 42-15-and 7 in the finals closeout gm6 against DR J not even make the top 20? Ridiculous!
Shaq vs Yao is way more legendary then you think, its really the #1 spot. The most viewed (including rewatched)NBA game of all time!!! And by far, there is so much more then just the match up. Please look for a proper video about this matchup and you will find yourself really good content to react to. I just don't want to spoil it but you will see Shaq and Charles and then gang in ways you haven't b4.
Kyrie is on the way out now. His peak was like 4-5 years ago. Just got swept 4-0 in the first round of these playoffs while playing bad the entire time.
Yall gotta check out russel westbrook highlights. He hasn’t had the best season this year, but overall he definitely is a top 20 point guard of all time.
Yao ming was one of the strongest nba players not a tall streak of piss lol. He would bully ben wallace all the time on the court. Ben wallace was the only nba player to put shaq on his back after blocking a shot. He did this block one handed too.
Lol why you gotta do Bron like that and not show his revenge on Tatum and Brogdon in those same games.. especially Tatum, he hit a game winner on him and I might be wrong but definitely swept both of them in those playoff series..
Kobe was right about Damian Lillard he's the whole package. One of the most underrated players today. You should react to his top 30 career plays th-cam.com/video/RxxueDqPAyU/w-d-xo.html great video different angle replays on each play
Lol tell me you’re a a lebron hater without telling me you’re a lebron hater.. that only means Lebron is never too prideful or egotistical to guard rookies and contest theirvshots. And just assuming here, Even ur hero’s MJ and Kobe were humiliated countless amount of times and definitely more times then Bron 😂…
You can tell who's never played team sports if you think that telling your teammates no as a rookie gets you major respect and they'll never f#ck with you again... And most of those small guards may seem short but you're comparing them next to 7"0 guys. Steph curry's 6"2', Allen Iverson 6"0' and James harden is 6"5' they're probably taller than you.
Dear mister video announcer, "VS." is pronounced "versus" just like it's spelled out. It's never "verse". Individual competition or teams...always versus. There is no 'singular' variation.
These guys know nothing other then how many 3 point shots they can shoot...back in the day you just had to be good at the entire game...everything is negated now and its all about the 3 point shot...they have ruined true basketball...its become a joke...dont even watch anymore...the true total game ledgends are gone for good...Bird, Magic, Stockton, Malone, Barkley, Parrish, McHale, Wilkenson, Miller, Jordan, Kareem, Dr. J. , Doc Rivers, Shaq and all of the greats that actually could do everything are gone...and the rules make it impossible for the new ones to have the insight to have the ablilty to play anywhere on the court and play as a TEAM...the sport has lost its ability to truely play the game...its everyone for theirselves now...and its sad to see...and thats why they are losing their fans....you would think they would notice but its all about the money now...not the pride...sad...and by the way..im from Indiana where we live and breath basketball and have for decades...we know what it takes to learn the basics of the game and the true meaning of team and fundamentals .... we know that the word TEAM has no I in it. you cant fool a true basketball fan.
“About three foot nine”
*camera look*
Excellent execution hilarious Daz!
Yao Ming is 7’6
Iverson crossing MJ was an all time basketball moment. Like a passing of the torch of culture leaders.
truthfully! should have been #1 moment
@@caterpillakilla Agreed
Facts AI don't get enough respect he changed the culture
I dont know if he passed the torch. I think he actually passed him an "L"...And maybe 30 points or so....carry on....

Yao was 7'6" with legs like trees. And skilled. Injuries shortened his career.

@@ariufondu that was essentially my dad's thoughts. Oh that's why he got drafted.
I lost it at 3 foot 9! And then if you don’t know the empirical system, you just agree😂
Guy is crazy for having AI vs MJ below a Kobe vs Lillard game nobody even talks about
13:35 "He looks like a giant!"
He is. He's 7'6. 5 inches taller than Shaq.
Muggys Bogues!!!!! Why Muggsy Bogues was so good!!! 4’9” NBA LEGEND!!!!!
2:51 steph gettin ready to embarrass Jaylen Brown some more in the finals lol
Yao Ming is listed as 7’6” and 311lbs (22.21 stones to you Brits) Shaq when he played was listed at 7’1” 330. He weighs more now in his early 50s.
Three foot nine. That's hilarious!
80’s and 90’s was entire games of revenge not single plays
Love seeing some love in this video for my hometown team Utah Jazz!
Dwight said after that. "I knew I was gonna get dunked on eventually, I am just glad it was from Kobe".
Ignoring Larry Bird’s antics versus rookies, trash talking and all, is almost unforgivable. This video needs to be subtitled “of the 2000s”.
for sure the dominique wilkins story cracks me up lol
i fast forwarded through most of the bull to see if Bird was in there.
no one wants to watch that grainy ass footage.
anything before 1995 isnt gonna be in compilation videos.

Can you watch more individual highlights of players? Like Kobe, Westbrook, LeBron? Love the channel!
Porzingus is 7’3 he actually became a really good shot blocker after getting embarrassed like that
You should react to best dunks of the 2021-2022 nba season
The Chris Paul thing with Wade and Melo is more funny when you realize that he's around the same age, just drafted in a later year. They were only like 1-2 years in the league at that point.
Yao ming is in the NBA Hall of Fame he was legit until the feet problems ended his career

4:05 Idk why Dave is laughing lol he's an inch shorter than Nico Mannion, same thing would've happened to him
Will you be watching the NBA Finals? The Finals will be exciting as hell.
Clicked on this one fast haha
OH MY GOD number 19 steph vs brown warriors vs celtics are about to play each other in the nba finals right now in 2022 wtf
No Dave. They don’t respect you man if you’re a rookie and tell them f off. Haha
YOU GUYS HAVEEE TO DO KOBE BRYANTS ULTIMATE HIGHLIGHT MIXTAPE, LONG OVERDUE!
So yeah Tatum dunked on Bron there but Bron won the game and it was game 7 to go to the finals so idk who was really embarrassed that day

Kyrie wasn't a rookie when he challenged Kobe. That was his second year.
The Kobe vs Kyrie gave me MAJOR CHILLS!! RIP!!
Kyrie is on the way out now. His peak was like 4-5 years ago. Just got swept 4-0 in the first round of these playoffs while playing bad the entire time.
The guy who makes the video really hates LBJ lol
Yall gotta check out russel westbrook highlights. He hasn’t had the best season this year, but overall he definitely is a top 20 point guard of all time.
You guys should react to the NBA finals currently underway
if you say "no" it gets worse
You should react to Kobe's 81 Point Game
Zions Senior Mixtape !
Yao ming was one of the strongest nba players not a tall streak of piss lol. He would bully ben wallace all the time on the court. Ben wallace was the only nba player to put shaq on his back after blocking a shot. He did this block one handed too.

Luka Doncic highlights.
Steph Curry is about to meet Jaylen Brown (and Jayson Tatum) again in the NBA Championship...and they're not rookies any more. #GoCelts
nba finals time our celtics vs them warriors. i feel so good for al horford glad he is in the finals. gonna be tough but anything can happen.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is definitely not the best 20 of All time. Should be called the best of the last 20 years.

On what planet is Kyrie Irving a "legend"? Two words: Puh - leez.
Larry Bird is the goat
This narrator is annoying lol
Nah narrator is funny and amazing
Was about to say the same.
This guy’s definition of the term ‘legend’ is a little loose.
Yao Ming is 7’6-7
No disrespect to PG he's a baller but I wouldn't say he's legendary
Agreed, same with Carmelo.
