This is just by my understanding, not saying this is in stone perfect logic. Cousins: Couldn't defend the pick and roll by the end, constantly attacked in playoffs. Also not a reliable personality historically. Howard: Good player still but was a frustrating locker room presence who if I recall correctly was in a dispute with the NBA about following rules in the bubble and was almost dismissed from the playoffs. Whiteside: Bad locker room guy, great defensive stats but terrible results guy who chased blocks and gave up tons of points off cutters and offensive rebounds. Kemba: By the end his knees were so bad he couldn't guard anybody and was a complete liability. Stevensons: Both were just notoriously difficult personalities on and off the court. Summary being, these guys were all difficult to deal with, which is fine when they are at their peaks, but once the talent drops off they aren't worth the trouble.
I swear was thinking the same watching the playoffs imagine if mental health was important as it should Hassan Whiteside was a 💪 boogie can play now Dwight a backup maybe Andrew bynum is someone they forgot due to mental health he had potential
Dwight Howard was out of the league quick after the lakers championship because of his attitude. He put his head down and worked hard as a solid role player that year, but then immediately started complaining about touches and playing time and other crap you should not be hearing from your 35 year old backup center. We thought he had left that attitude behind when he joined LA, but it seemed he was just putting on a face for a year. His attitude is not worth having him on a roster spot, even for a minimum. He would just be taking a roster spot from a player who's much younger and still more mature than him. Dont feel bad for him, at least he got the ring. Honestly attitude issues killed a lot of these guys' careers. Teams are gonna choose the 25 year old with a good attitude and work ethic over the 35 year old with a bad attitude and entitlement issues every time.
I feel like cousin and Howard never had the chance to really grow up being childish with a bad attitude don't last long in the NBA no matter how good you think you are😮
Just finished the entire video great vid. But literally everyone in this video besides kemba had huge egos and behavior problems and that’s the reason no one wanted them
I have never been the biggest Howard fan tbh.. but his accolades and style of play in his prime deserve TOP75. Kemba was great when actually healthy, and i think Cousins should still be in the NBA .
I tore my quad once before. It really is slow to fully heal. A month or two and you’ll be fully active again. The problem is how easy it can be to re-injure yourself afterwards.
Dwight Howard main reason he isn’t in the league is cause he thought he should be a starter not a back up and no team was gonna let him start his ego got big again
Whiteside isn’t in the league because he was a constant defensive liability. His high block numbers disguise the fact that his teams always did worse defensively with him on the floor.
You collected locker room cancers or played with crappy attitude. Boogie was a headcase all of his career and injuries stopped him to be a factor later on. Dwight argued on his last team with their star player. Whiteside was a net negative defender who only cared about stat, not about winning could he be useful for a team without any under the rim presence? Yeah maybe but he never liked basketball more than a cash cow. Walker is terrible in Monaco! Terrible as a player waste of roster space. Stephenson as well a headcase only worked in One System, anywhere else he seemed like a player who prefers showboating. They are all old players who never shown any sign of being veteran leaders, instead any of them try a player on a 2 way contract makes more sense
If you a center and don’t shoot 3’s then it’s just a matter of time before you get blacklisted 😮 you can’t just block shots and rebound these days cause there’s no post play in the lower blocks, not as a matter of game plan
Just thinking about it teams probably would like to take a chance with one of these players but you got to remember what the average NBA Salary is per season especially for bad to garbage players. I'm pretty sure once they get back in the NBA they ain't playing for a mill or two and change.
There are valid reasons why these talents weren't offered NBA jobs. You end each story w "I can't understand why they aren't in the NBA". Do more research for your NBA channel until you figure it out.
Man Cousins has to be unlucky as hell, he joins the GSW the year after they win and is cut the year before Denver wins their championship
I think he was injured or cut from the 2020 Lakers but they did send him a ring when they won the finals.
Well, in my opinion, they really don’t count anyway if you’ve been tried yourself to a ring😂

boogie cousins came back in those same playoffs after tearing his quad and played in the finals
Jeanie Bus gave em a lakers 2020 ring
No offense, if people thinks that Whiteside should be in the NBA, they definitely only watch his highlights and stats only
Mesenkomaha is back with a new picture, love the vids
I could name probably 7 teams Cousins could currently start on and 30 he could come off the bench for.
Celtics has needed a back up big for YEARS
name those 7 teams lol
@MikoPayton raptors,magic,hornets,wizards,jazz,
Grizzlies and Pistons(debatable) but that's why I said probably 7
@@AT-fw8zynah man these rebuilding teams need to give minutes to their developing players rather than old players
@@tuguldurbaljinnyam7578 he could def help them develop he can shoot dribble pass post all around
Roy Hibbert?
..omg I totally forgot 😂
And Danny Granger
It's funny that this video popped up in my feeds because I was wondering what had happened to these guys myself.
I swear was thinking the same watching the playoffs imagine if mental health was important as it should Hassan Whiteside was a 💪 boogie can play now Dwight a backup maybe Andrew bynum is someone they forgot due to mental health he had potential
Cousins would be the best back up for today’s nba.
Naz Reid?

How the hell is Dwight Howard not top 75
From what I heard he definitely a top 😂 no Diddy
I can see the Suns picking Boogie or Dwight up in the off-season they neeeeeeed center depth
Dwight Howard with glute issues lmao
😂😂😂😂😂
I feel like cousin and Howard never had the chance to really grow up being childish with a bad attitude don't last long in the NBA no matter how good you think you are😮
DeMarcus Cousins just leads the Taiwan Beer Leopards to Taiwan T1 league Championship and wins Finals MVP!👍💪
Howard and Cousins were killing it in T1 because the quality of players is not good
Agree. Also I don't think Dwight disappeared to soon, he played a lot and just got old with injuries.
And they’re having fun
Whiteside only improved if he has a paycheck.
Just finished the entire video great vid. But literally everyone in this video besides kemba had huge egos and behavior problems and that’s the reason no one wanted them
I have never been the biggest Howard fan tbh.. but his accolades and style of play in his prime deserve TOP75. Kemba was great when actually healthy, and i think Cousins should still be in the NBA .
Mike Beasley?
What about Blake griffin
Yall DeMarcus Cousins ain't bothered! He just won a championship overseas where they pay good and he get to keep all his money!
I tore my quad once before. It really is slow to fully heal. A month or two and you’ll be fully active again. The problem is how easy it can be to re-injure yourself afterwards.
Rare nba ballers mention‼️‼️
Josh smith
John wall?
What about Andrew Bynum
I agree on Boogie and Blake Griffin
Dwight Howard main reason he isn’t in the league is cause he thought he should be a starter not a back up and no team was gonna let him start his ego got big again
How about the Wallace brothers?
Add Joakim Noah to that list
Whiteside isn’t in the league because he was a constant defensive liability. His high block numbers disguise the fact that his teams always did worse defensively with him on the floor.
lance stephenson was a great player on the Indiana pacers
Quad tears are very rare...
Vince McMahon in the royal rumble : wtf!
Howard with Atlanta left the chat

Boogie was a headcase all of his career and injuries stopped him to be a factor later on.

People really have to stop thinking that because someone plays good in Taiwan that they can play in the NBA
Cousin was on the bucks🤔

where was I.T.?
Still playing these are players that are not in the league that was good enough to still play
Before I watch this video I want to mention Josh smith what happened to dude. I think his game would be perfect for todays league
Was Lance Stephenson considered a good defensive player?! Annoying LeBron doesn't make one a good defensive player.
I agree 100 percent
Love to see Bousins, winning 🏆 🔥❤️
Most these guys are out of the league because of injuries or being a lockroom headache.
Just thinking about it teams probably would like to take a chance with one of these players but you got to remember what the average NBA Salary is per season especially for bad to garbage players. I'm pretty sure once they get back in the NBA they ain't playing for a mill or two and change.
Cousins n Carmelo got black balled
They both had questionable attitudes
Most have attitude/character problems, with the exception of kemba.

If Marbury n Garnett would a stayed together dey woulda won a ring fasho. I bet eating dat Vaseline ain't help
I was hyped when the warriors got cousins too sucked it didn’t work out
I 4got dat Cousins was on our GSW Hoop team n 2019 cuz we woulda won n beat Toronto even without KD or Klay!! Biggie was dat G fasho
Everyone had their issues so they had to be cut!
Hi
Golden State needs Dwight
Facts
you have to grow up fast
You have to grow up fast when you make it to the NBA personality and attitude means a lot sometime it makes no difference how good you are😮
Hassan is a horrible person that's why.
There is politics everywhere. Good thing the NBA is not the only place a basketball player can play to get paid.
Hasson whiteside

Yes yes yes attitude personality make a lot of difference how you succeed in life😢
