You weren’t watching inside the NBA at four years old gtfoh lol I was born in 94’ I was in preschool in 98’ I remember moments here and there but the idea a 4 year old is watching late night NBA games and postgame shows is ridiculous stop it
4 year old child tuning in to a late night talkshow to hear what Kenny smith has to say about the Portland trailblazers bench production and rotations. Why do people feel the need to lie to feel included in the most mundane things lmao
West conf was stacked all 20 years of Kobe’s career to go 5-2 in the Finals is legendary considering Timmy D won another 5-1 in that same span. Kobe forever my goat
@bentheisraelite kidd just seen the game different. Completely controlled ever aspect of the game. Without even having to shoot a lot. Basketball genius.
4:14 - Fun fact: Half the teams that won Game 1 in their 1st Round matchups ended up losing the series. The Mavs, 76ers, Raptors, and Kings all advanced.
Damn, young Pierce. Funny that the first segment was covering Doc Rivers of all people too -- and he referenced the St. Louis Rams who'd go on to lose Super Bowl 36 against the Patriots and some guy named Tom Brady, 10 months from when this originally aired.
@@Pepprjack1 Pierce would be a perfect replacement for Chuck/Kenny/Shaq too, but I think networks would be too afraid of him. Luckily he's on YT with KG and they're god damn hilarious to listen to.
@@dandrecollier800 Well, ESPN already got rid of him for his IG live. I think he's perfect on the web where he can be himself (same with KG for that matter too). Legacy cable TV wouldn't allow them to be who they are.
This was the year Paul Pierce was damn near stabbed to death right before the season started and played in every game. Legendary player imo. Not top ten at all but definitely top 15-20 of all time. The truth 🥶 life threatening event aside, the elite stars of today don't play all 82 games. Not even close to having that pride 💯
The Buzz Club (which was a gay club too). It was one of Benzino's boys that stabbed him too -- and it was because Piece was sleeping with Benzino's girl at the time.
Its so weird watching this now some of these players are hall of famers others I completely forgot about tbh lol then seeing the crew look so damn young is crazy too
early version of how teams play today. Antoine walker bringing down the ball and they shoot a bunch of 3s for that era. Tony Battie a big who doesnt post up,.his role is to rebound, block shots. they have 3 and D players like E williams and Walter Mccarty, Paul Pierce doing the herky jerky hesi and step backs. just didnt have enough talent outside of Pierce and depth. Antoine Walker is great when he's clicking but sometimes his shot selection is suspect again very similar to todays game.
The 2000-2001 Bucks = the East team that many felt could have beaten any of the West teams in the 2001 NBA Finals had the Bucks made it there. Bucks lost to the Iverson-Sixers in the East Finals in 7 games
I read Ray Allen's book. He said he felt the bucks got messed up by free throw disparity. A la Sacramento. He said he felt the league wanted Philly in the finals vs LA because they were a big market city compared to Milwaukee which was not a big market
Back in those days Hornets were always just good enough to make the playoffs never good enough to ever advance lol it was like a permanent spot for them every year 8th to 6th seed
Man I'm sitting here smoking weed getting high as hell watching this, this is great content straight nostalgia man keep up the Great content
Damn good nostalgia and weed to go with it 💯
same
Same. I’m getting lit, looking up all the old stuff lol
you’re not alone sir
Same here 😂😂
This set looked so much better. Man I miss the swagger and visuals of the 90’s and 00’s
it’s something about the Knicks and Lakers courts in the early 2000s that just make me feel like a kid again 😂
Facts... the lighting of the area made the courts pop.. miss those old days of Staples and Madison Square
Facts 😂 back to the simple times
They kept that same court for the Knicks from the 1995-96 season till the 2010-11 season
@@edwardfisher9930I was just saying they should turn the lights back on in the crowd during Laker games
This is more enjoyable than current NBA.
Seriously though 💯 You tell no lies, friend
Sadly this is going to be the final year for tnt broadcasting nba games
Miss that song in the beginning as a kid back then loved it
That old tnt theme music “excellence” 🔥🔥
Man when I tell you I’m grateful to be born in a time to experience all of this in real time! Born in 97’ been a basketball fan since 4 years old

Kidd won wherever he went. Criminallu underrated.
My fav pure PG
@Dark0_Cl0ud he was so good
@@xavierjohnson4496 I’m happy to see other kidd fans . His IQ was second to none in the league since I seen him in jersey . I think higher than Kobe .
@bentheisraelite kidd just seen the game different. Completely controlled ever aspect of the game. Without even having to shoot a lot. Basketball genius.
Before new fans and media ruined the game with their revisionist history, ppl knew kidd was a beast on the court top 5-10 pg all time
Kenny Chuck and EJ have been at this for a long time
Truth averaged 25 that year and didn’t make the all star team 😵💫
Those commercials are fantastic great memories.
this is a vibe. soulful
Shaq was just unguardable nothing you could do to stop him...
Cleo commercial "call-may NOW" 😂😂😂
Loved that theme back then

@@David-mt7tj ah that makes sense, thank you
Man the media has changed, now its too much hate and less analyze the game
its just gossip
If possible more 2001 playoff episodes
Didn’t even realize Paul Pierce was here until Ernie did his awkward black handshake with him at the end of the show.

I miss mustache Charles lol

Same!!
How they gonna play with one of the greatest NIKE commercials of all time 😂😂😂😂
7:35 - Unfortunately, Doc was not only wrong about this in this series but for the rest of his Magic tenure.
The celtics were too ass to be in the playoffs which is why Paul Pierce had free time.

@theclassicmanila-style8435 next year they added Rodney Rodgers who was also a front court player that you could go small with yet he shot 3s
As we can clearly see by this time kobe was carying the team he 25 points in the second half
One half isn't carrying the team... 0 finals mvps and regular season mvps when he was a sidekick
If I'm right I only saw 1 three pointer in the highlights the entire show. That's pretty interesting to me

Too much Bucks/Magic coverage in this episode. Not a well-balanced show at all.
I still hate paul pierce and the celtics 💯
