That crowd is electric. Basketball is so beautiful. Y’all can say why you want about this era, but they set the foundation for your favorite players today.
John Smith well yh every single thing has a 'foundation' doesnt change the fact that its pure stupidity to say any of these players are better than modern super stars
Emad Talukdar who said that? You’re having a conversation with yourself making up crazy shit. Have a good day weirdo
John Smith truth
nah bill russell and wilt set the foundation for my favorite players bc my fav players are BLACK
Emad Talukdar wilt would body every center in today’s game, Bill Russell would be like a less athletic much smarter Deandre Jordan, Jerry West would be CJ Mccolum with defense and Elgin Baylor would be a more athletic Demar Derozan
People are not wrong when they say that today's players are better. They absolutely are. But these legends' greatness is not as much about their skills (although they were very skilled for their time), it's the fact that they are the pioneers. The game wouldn't even exist today without these guys. They deserve much respect.
Josh Landis yeah whatever they can pioneer all they want it doesnt automatically put them in a top 10 of all time list which is supposed to be based on SKILL. Bill Russell is probably one of the most overrated players of all time.
Emad Talukdar let me see you go win championships against Russell’s Celtics in the 60s and 70s
Meatwad Gets The Hoes nope purely on skill alone drummond is better than bill russell
Ozo uzi exactly drummond would be considered the best center of all time back then
Nicholas Bradley theyre all time greats for their era they do deserve that respect but you cant say theyd beat or compete against the players today you technically are disrespecting them
This is totally a rare video and this is my first time actually seeing a Jerry west highlight video
Same
Same here 2
Me too
Literally played like a smaller larry bird scoring wise
much quicker and a better man and team defender tbh@@Zaymane808
You're not a true fan of basketball if you don't appreciate the past legends.
Corey Wright yup these weirdos in the comments are so disrespectful “TRASH” “BUMS” smh
Corey Wright nigga u luuk lik akademiks
Idc. I'm allowed to not appreciate if I don't wanna appreciate
JustinR20 he went 1-8 in the finals wit Elgin Baylor.. W/o Wilt J.West wouldn’t have a chip. ESPN ranks players like Wilt top 5 (Kobe 12th) but he had 2 HOFers (1Ring), Big O only chip He had young Kareem(1ring), Kareem had Magic BigGame James DPOY Michael Cooper.. respect to the elders but when they say these players are better than Kobe it’s bs
Boss Playa60 They averaged more points rebounds and assists and shot better than Kobe with no 3pt line 😂. And the bigs could camp in the paint so add those goal tending in there too. Jerry west would probably have averaged about 30-34 for his career.
Once you understand how the rules of the time restricted them, and dictated style of play you realize how skilled these guys really are.
Skilled yes back then today not that your not but there is no flash or style but coaches will appreciate it cuz that's true basketball staying with your style your technique the basic fundamentals
Dribbling was hard.. because anything could be a carry or a Palming.
Now I see players Palming the ball and walking in front of the ref like it's nothing.
Offensive fouls are rare.
And you couldn't even back up players with your back in the post.
Assists were only counted if it was a pass to a guy near the rim in front of you..
It was hard.
Yea the dribbling, shot contests, and man to man rules were all key factors. In this era, individual scoring was purposefully made difficult because people (Red Auerbach) didn’t want one guy being able to beat five. Respect to Bill.. but the real 3 Kings of the 60s are Jerry, Wilt, and Oscar. Everything that dominates the game today, they already did it. They were the first. The real blue prints to our sport. Other guys simply took what they started and built upon it
@@deez9805 you have to put COUSY there as well..He wasnt dominating like the others but he was a PIONEER for most things PG do now.
HE was so ahead of his time that REFS stop games to ask between them if that was legal.
He was so ahead of his time that 99% of the coaches didnt want him on his team due to the style he played.
@@onlyfacts3178 Cousy was more 50's.
Seriously how do these channels get these highlights
Because they're w commercial organisation now. And the nba provides them with it.
bjsw534 they work with the nba
His shot is seriously deadly and proof he would KILL in this era
You're delusional
Jerry west pull-up jump shot unbeatable / invincible in any nba era
They jump to contest shots in today's era.
Compared to nba players today his shot is very mediocre
0:24 “The Lakers breaking fast!” 😂 I love it.
Keep It A Buck *The Lakers are fastly breaking
The lakers are fasting, it’s dawn time. It’s time to break fast
Jerry West One Of The Greatest Pure Shooters EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!
@@patricialucero1767 yeah. He said one of the greatest.
Jerry west greatest pure basketball shooting ever : pull up jump shot
West was a lot quicker and more athletic than I imagined
They played with Chuck Taylors and Ked sneakers thats like playing barefoot.
yall need to put respect to the Og's of basketball. withouth them there is no lebron, curry, durant, giannis, cp3 or no nba for that matter
MURRAY RHYMES WITH CURRY yup these people are so dumb
MURRAY RHYMES WITH CURRY No you mean the guy who created the sport
@BBESS bess
Now your coment is bs because both Curry and future three pointers HAD A 3 POINTER LINE.
Players in the past had a mid range style of playing.All of these factors made future basketball.
Bruh athletes adapt,if Jerry West would come to this era in his prime all he needed would be training,cardio,weights and practice and DONE.
BBESS bess butterfly effect.. have you heard of it?
BBGOD25 was the nba not exclusive to one race at one point? At some point someone had to break the color barrier.. last time I checked all those players are minorities who wouldn’t be allowed in the league.. jerry west also had paved the way for many as a front office exec. Not to mention players like Michael Jordan were inspired by people like David Thompson and Dr. J if they didn’t inspire Jordan to play basketball damn near half the league wouldn’t exist.. too say these players had no effect on the players that play today is wrong.
Every shot the crowd goes wild , so pure.
That reverse layup he does in 0:40 , in the face of Bill Russel, is just dope..
He was listed at 6'2" but was actually 6'4" with the wing span of someone 6'7". Defenders said they knew he was going up for his jumper when he banged his last dribble, but it was so quick they couldn't stop it.
Not many people know this but Mr Logo could also dunk
J.WEst was a cold pg! I love using him on NBA 2K. A lotta ppl don't even respect the old skool guys on 2K, but I've garnered much much more respect after seeing their skills.
He was broken in 2k18
@@nbastalgiacritic1751 foreal?? hahaha, he nice af on 19' A+ playmaking, mid, 3, inside, and A+ perimeter defense & stl
Always fun to watch old basketball to see how the game has evolved. Great video
Eroddy Same. What a shame most people watch old basketball videos to insult the players and the game smh
❤️ oldie nba no comparing like super pretty woman :: same thing
So amazing to watch this! This era was the beginning of modern basketball

Some One 愛 nice profile pic 😉
Danny An *So we’re both men of culture I see*
Too much anime bro LMAO 😂
Ah yes most definitely. It's 21st century, gotta be in rich with different culture so we can spread the knowledge to others.
Roy Allen Moreno *Not enough*
basketball was a lot different than today
Nutcracker Draymond Trashtalk Green also players were a lot worse, there are rookies who would kick West's ass in a 1v1
Nutcracker Draymond Trashtalk Green they were also really strict about carries and travels. You can see how different they dribbled compared to today
The Greek Freak college players
Nutcracker Draymond Trashtalk Green u think Jerry west can guard Kevin Knox or Zion Williamson? GTFO nostalgic fucker, long range shooting is a fucking skill and a hard one to learn as well, it should be rewarded.
Holy fuck you are mad as fucking fuck
Jerry West’s pull-up jumper is iconic!!!
My hero too : Jerry west super great pull up jump shooter
These guys are practically playing barefoot wearing those Converse. Yikes. That alone tells you how tough and good these guys were to play like that every night.
The game just seem so pure back then
Would of been more pure if they had the 3 point line back then
@@SpeakPlainly
Cus basketball wasn’t as popular as it was today so many of these guys were plumbers who just worked out, smoked and played basketball and made lots of money from it….. they deserve lots of respect from developing basketball and making it the game it’s is today
RIP Jerry West
RIP JERRY - one of the time greats
West was giving Cousy the business that day.
They moved like marionettes, so much grace, kinda beautiful if you think about it. It's interesting how the game has evolved to become more "in your face" and dare I say, physical.
The physicality here looks the exact same as an NBA game today 😂
@@R2theawesomeJ sort of but the script is flipped. Back then, offensive fouls were more tightly called than defensive, the opposite of today. So driving the lane, especially if you were big, had to be done with careful timing. Also, backing people down Shaq style wasn't permitted. But defenders could maintain pretty consistent contact without a call.
One of the O.G's of the sport we know today
I really think West could have put up great numbers in any era
@@bensytaccount You guys are so delusional LMAOOO
Jerry west super great jump up shooter:; still give a basketball 🏀 shooting clinic for current nba& college basketball player
West's amazing pull-up jumper would get loads of buckets in any era. At the end of the day, for all their flash and athleticism, MJ and Kobe were nearly unstoppable because they had deadly pullup jumpers. When they needed a bucket the most against tight half-court D (e.g., game 6 of the NBA finals, anyone), they relied on that again and again.
@@TC0901 we're in an era where Austin Reaves is a starting PG with a $50 million contract and Donatas Sabonis is averaging nearly a triple double and you think an all-time great like West would not be just fine? Who's the delusional one lol
@@dl3988 You don't understand basketball. Why do you think West is an all-time great? Its because of the competition he played against. I believe he's an all-time great. That doesn't contradict the fact that he'd be a plumber in today's game.
Austin Reaves and virtually every single player in the NBA today is 10x more skilled, 10x faster and stronger, and 10x more talented than Jerry West.
The most underrated duo of all time Jerry West and Elgin Baylor
RIP LEGEND
People are so ignorant about this era. Refs were so strict on form you couldn't even do crossovers or even dunk. The fact that Jerry West still has unbroken records in the NBA, even with the 3point line. Should tell you how good this guy really is.
Sam Jones is on the record saying he didn't look forward to playing against Jerry West. This video offers a glimpse of why.
Came here to pay my respects to an all-time GOAT. Greatest pure shooter of all time
Wow this comment section is so disrespectful. You wouldn’t have modern basketball if not for absolute legends like Jerry West, Elgin Baylor, Bill Russell, and especially Bob Cousy paving the way for the evolution of the game. Put respect on their damn names
JustinR20 ok you wouldn’t have rap if it wasn’t for poetry that doesn’t make all poetry good
Nope, you wouldn't have it if it wasn't for the Canadian that invented it.
idk how anyone could watch this guy do this against these amazing defenders and not think Jerry wouldn't score 40 a game in todays game. Its insanity to me.
Even this comment is disrespectful , all you see them as is “pioneers” and not actually good high leveled players Jerry west is better than 90% of the sg playing today you can even make the argument he was better and had a more complete game than the likes of someone like James harden
Sebastian Guillaume I hope your joking
The way they all dribble the ball flat handed looks silly, but that's because the rules were more strict back then and anything else was considered a carry, unlike in subsequent decades. Current NBA players damn near carry the ball by comparison. So don't think this guys dribbling is a sign of lack of skills, on the contrary.
None of them have a left at all.
@@lancey8366 They haven't invented it yet.
so insane the level of respect these teams had for eachother in the thick of it.....the stolen inbound.....russel was down court never ran back on d for just about the entire broken posession.....then he fouls west down the pipe and holds him/protects him from harm on his way down. They set such a high standard of how to respect the court and play/lead their teams. Hearing our fans cheer on vs the drone of the bos crowd. The thought that my lakers fans had more respect for bill than his own fans.......almost brings a tear to my eyes. The respect Jerry had for bills situation. As well as the state of the league.
Mr. clutch Jerry West thank you everything you did for the Lakers that is why your a laker legend the logo first time I ever watched Jerry West highlights.
U took this to new heights...respect to your page man...
Paul Arizin was the best shooter in the 50s. Bob Petit too. By the mid 60s all guards shot the ball around 44 percent or higher. West was one of the fastest and most skilled guards of his era. Long too. Look bigger than his listed height.
The real hoop fans appreciate this !
you can argue about whether the players of the 60s or the 70s were even athletic, or would have been athletic enough to play in the modern era, but one thing Jerry West had that would translate into any era is his efficiency scoring the ball. Averaged shooting 47.4% for his career, 57% true shooting percentage, similar efficiency to guys like Chris Paul, Damian Lillard and Demar Derozan. Even if you were to say Jerry West wouldn't be athletic enough to be a star in the modern era, his shot alone is enough to say he could at least play in any era.
One of the main things you see here is actual dribbling. Back in the 50's, 60's, 70's and even the 80's to some degree, you couldn't palm or carry the ball. You had to straight up and down dribble. Those were the rules back then. It was illegal to carry the ball. That's why you never see (what we now consider) athletic cross-over moves or so-called "superior" ball handling skills back in that era. Believe me, it's actually harder not to carry the ball than it is to carry. These athletes were disciplined. Moreover, every era is a product of its rules. If the 50's and 60's athletes were allowed to carry the ball, they would have equally good handles. When the NBA stopped calling palming penalties (starting in the mid 80's into the 90's), you saw more freedom for creative dribbling techniques, crossovers and other moves. Michael Jordan perhaps single handedly helped usher that era in. He regularly crossed over and carried the ball. You can't cross over without palming or carrying the ball to some degree. If Michael Jordan, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson or any player from the modern era went back in time and played in Jerry West's era, they would be called for palming every time they handled the ball. Different rules and different eras don't necessarily mean better players. Each era is a product of its own rules and should be judged accordingly. Today's players might be stronger and more athletic, but that doesn't make them smarter or fundamentally better.
Carrying is illegal in the modern nba.
@@nbastalgiacritic1751 It may be illegal at the present time but the institutionalization of gather step in 2009 made a loophole from it. That is just my opinion.
Even then, I mean if you have a ame with modern guys today with guys like West and Russell, if you have the rule with dribbling like in the 60s with the ability for players to shoot with the three-point line, I still pick a team with Lebron, KD, and Curry. Curry and KD would just be better shooters than most of the guys in this era. Look at Lebron, he is always been about his quickness at getting inside along with strength. I agree these old guys could play and penetrate like Frazier and West, but Lebron has done the same thing for over a decade with tons of atheltic ass players. He would've been fine doing his bulldozing in this era.
I agree guys like Wilt, West, and Russell would still be great and amazing in todays game because they deserve that respect. I do think West could be very similar to someone like Westbrook or Steve Nash and Russell could be like Jokic today or Tim Duncan.
I just still believe though that there are legit arguments about how a lot of these old guys would have their strengths limited if they played today. It definitely could happen with guys like Lebron or KD, but their skills seem to be good enough to translate as well.
@@nbastalgiacritic1751 ahhhh someone who doesn’t watch the current NBA. By the 60’s standards, they would’ve been called every time down.
@@reymiguelperez6643 the gather step has been in basketball since the beginning lol. The whole lebron “crab dribble” fiasco is what started that whole narrative. Gathers, step thrus, up and unders, have been around forever, people just don’t know the rules and want to scream travel whenever a moves timing is different.
This is great basketball just look at them come together as a team no iso looking for the right play and the right shot even if they forced it sometimes always together no Selfish person
There ball movement is actually pretty nice
Not really it much better now with step backs cross overs ankle breakers saucy moves what u mean it was nice it was horrible and too basic
@@patricialucero1767 it was more team oriented. And no carrying or traveling like today's nba. It's all one-on-one
@@patricialucero1767 every time harden or Kylie dribbles the ball it would be carry in this era
@@patricialucero1767 They weren't allowed to do those things back then.
To me Jerry looked kind of like Curry with the body movement 🤷🏾♂️ West did teach Curry some things over the time he spent with the Warriors
I agree
And his pump fake reminds me of kobe
Larry bird has a basketball 🏀 shooting video with red auerback; Jerry west legendary pullup jump shot;; Oscar Robertson believes shooting the basketball 🏀 at the same spot on the basketball
There are moves Jerry West is pulling out in this video that are so good we see players USING THEM TODAY. 50+ years ago on this highlight tape Jerry pulled out a turn around jumper and a floater cmon now. Based on the rules of this era and no three point line the style of play is somewhat limited but you can see the pace of the game is just as fast if not faster as well as the fundamentals are still damn near the same. Setting screens pick and roll man defense postups
Fans were amazing back then.
So dope to see how the association was back then. Great highlight vid bruh!!!
Jumper cash only dude who ever won finals mvp in a loss
How much the game has changed yet stayed the same. Add an unstoppable jumper onto an athlete who can get up to the rim thru traffic and you have Jerry West. Also he was apparently one of the best perimeter defenders of his day
Most generic name: sports arena 💀💀💀
Footage is better and more clear than highlights from the early 00’s.
Wish they would have a video of the 68 69 finals game one,we're Jerry scored 53 points against Boston.
May God wonderfully bless you and your family
RIP Legend
Anyone saying this was “weak” era it wasn’t it was different for sure but he’ll no there were a lot of rules that are different then today
@@SpeakPlainly why were 8 of the 10 players on the 1965 East team black? Why did Russell’s 1965 Celtics and wilt 76ers have all black starting 5s? Do some more research
Nah, Jerry was going crazy tho
He the goat winnings mvp on the losing feel bad for him and baylor even wilt bill made a god squad
had to pull up ah finals game of Jerry against the Celtics after watching The winning time Lakers Series. Jerry buss character shocked me cuz I thought Jerry had rings but I never knew he faced the Celtics 6 straight & Lost.. 🤯🤯 But watching his film he just needed ah team around him & he would’ve won cuz Jerry was gettin off 💯👀👏🏽
Nice work, only casual fans could hate this or say "I could score 50" 😂 ...please
Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 not long before this. Of course, the Celtics were champions. Again.
The Logo!
Basketball had to start somewhere. To say that they would all get destroyed today is correct. But this is all they knew they could do. They didn’t know all these crossovers. The game of basketball evolved for the better due to these guys
They did know, but rather the rules were strict. Most, if not all, of today's dribbles would've been called a carry
He’s like the proto- Jordan/Kobe/wade. Had he played in this era I imagine he’d look something like them. 6’3 (really 6’4) with long arms and an ability to hit shots off the dribble and penetrate with ease
Pioneers.
Paved the way for what it is today. The logo is a legend.
crowd was lit😂😂
Just beautiful
Rest In Peace legend, the logo himself...
The player's movements literally looks like NBA Live
They are pioneers
West was money...lol
Good stuff
Imagine scoring 30+ in 31 finals games and only have one championship 🏆
Jerry was a BAD MAN!
Honestly they're a lot better than I anticipated. I thought they'd just be flipping the ball around the court and dribbling the ball nonsensical.
You're still talking about a professional sports organization within the lifetime of many alive today. There's no reason to think they would anything short of good
What? Why?
you could tell Jerry West had those twitch muscle fibers that make you quicker than the next guy. awesome stuff
They had stricter rules on ball carrying and traveling in this Era that's why they play this way. No Harden step back traveling or crossovers allowed here. They still all talented. Learn basketball history!
Great watch
Bob Cousy and Bill Russel vs Jerry West and Wilt Chamberlain
He always made the right play
1:08 Caruso is a legend
Goat
Larusso*
there's a lot of disrespect in the comments, but it's mainly people with a kid like mentality with no respect to these legends. they were finding the game out for what it was still. you can see in these highlights that Jerry West was a pioneer and an extraordinary player for his time with his shooting form and way he takes free throws. truly a player ahead of his time and an NBA legend. glad to have had him as a Laker.
I would average 50 in this era.
wweecwwcwtnanba1928 no you wouldn’t you’re probably like 12 these are grown men and they are still all just as tall as today’s nba
VYPR Gaming these growm men can barely shoot. I know you seen that guy miss a wide open layup
Chris Paul point god Yea but they were still professional athletes and would dominate any normal person including today, just not the nba players today because over time nba players have gotten more and more skilled it’s called evolution of the game
VYPR Gaming of course they would dominate a normal person who doesn't play the game. Iman shumpert would be considered the goat back in their history
Chris Paul point god I’m talking about a normal person who plays an average basketball player
The logo, hopefully forever.
RIP a real one
Doing gods work
These players are legend. But the players today are a lot better.
“The lakers breaking fast” that was literally the slowest fast break I’ve ever seen🤦🏾♂️😂
Well we know who that ref was going for 1:11
Here’s what no one considers when watching this era.
1. Medicine and evolution of Sports Science.
2. The shoes and flooring.
3. The hoop.
4. The rules, like stricter traveling violations, no 3 second in the paint, you can’t carry the ball, you have to have your palm almost above the ball.
I won’t sit here and say this era is better than now, but you have to understand that if you take any player today and have them grow up back then, they would not be able to do most of their moves. They can’t crossover and palm/carry the ball like they do today, no harden step back, and no 3s.
You try and play a game with those rules and tell me it doesn’t make it harder.
Back then the rules were made to make it difficult to score, today the rules were changed to make the game of basketball easier.
This is all documented btw. Look it up 😇
Very well said
West was a true baller
32 Points WithOut a 3 point shot??? really?? oh cmon in this era it was a 100 points for him haha. i cant imagine how great are they.
A superstar I feel like I can actually play like at the Y. I’m not real skilled and have holes in my game, but this sort of play isn’t super hard to replicate.
1:15 the sauce
Flintstones era... damn
Aye its LeBeautiful
Everybody in that arenas a OG
Jerry West and Daniel LaRusso pkaying together. What a trip, man.
A certified hood classics
God damn got dat exclusive shit
He used his left hand once in the entire video. 50 years is a lot more than I thought
like mj, being athletic in 90'sera
Jerry was being clutch in thats fckn 60's era.
Both is from the future 🐐
I could see guys like Steve Nash and John Stockton playing in this era of basketball given their style of play
