10 Former NBA Stars Whose Careers Ended TERRIBLY

We saw players like Kobe finish off his career with a 60 point game. That was arguably the greatest last game in NBA history. But for most NBA stars...it's not like that. Hope you enjoy the video!

You’re right. Iverson’s downfall was his own fault. Plenty of accomplished players accepted lessened roles on the team post career prime. Vince Carter is a shining example of someone who’s shown that he is above his ego which is why he’s still around. Philadelphia gave Allen a pity contract his final year in the NBA because they saw the writing on the wall for Iverson’s career. A.I.’s pride & ego ended his NBA career.

He should have used David Robinson for an excellent example. The former league MVP accepted coming off the bench later in his career. Tim Duncan became the focal point of their offense in 1998. The Spurs wouldn't have won championships in 1999 and 2003 without "The Admiral" making that sacrifice.

People saying Iverson's ego, some say the NBA didn't want Allen's "image" to tarnish the league. It was both if you asked me. Pro sports leagues and exec's. can hype who they want, and stigmatize the image of certain players whenever they want. On the flip side, Iverson was overly emotional at times when he didn't necessarily need to be.

I respect AI but he was so immature. He clearly never heard about former MVP and Scoring Champion Bob McAdoo, who came off the bench helping the Lakers win.

[@lamarjacksonoverrated4290]

He was a MVP?

[@thespiralgoeson]

I immediately thought of Bob McAdoo as well. Bill Walton too. Olajuwan, Barkley, Moses Malone, and Dirk Nowitzki all came off the bench late in their careers. AI is one of my all time favorite players, but yeah, he could be very immature.

[@bmills6176]

He was my favorite player when he went to Georgetown and up until he went to the finals in 2001 but he was so selfish couldn't co exist with any other top player that the sixers had ie stackhouse who got drafted their the year before in 1995 a still productive Derrick Coleman Larry Hughes and even Chris Webber in an interview said it was hard playing with Iverson when he went to the sixers cause AI had to hog the ball and take all the shots

[@bmills6176]

Very immature and seflish player and to think in the 1996 draft he was taken over kobe Bryant and even Ray Allen if they would redraft those guys we all know kobe would be taken first and maybe even Ray Allen over iverson

[@bmills6176]

He was a 2 time big east player of the year at Georgetown and to think when he got to the NBA all he focused on is scoring and on 2nd thought steve Nash was in that 1996 draft as well so in a redraft I would take kobe Ray Allen and Nash over iverson they all had way better careers then him

Bro Andy, big fan of your Channel. How about you make a Video about on NBA players who are in their decline/past prime then they retired BUT played again on different Leagues and excelled. For example, Stephon Marbury. After his stint in the NBA, he played well in CBA. More power Bro!

Allen Iverson was my favourite player. I loved to watch him play. I learned to crossover just like him. I developed and improve my skills a lot just by trying out his moves. Along with my skills and experience I developed good spacing reading and a reliable mid range and long shot. Whenever I started to question myself I'd look for the Answer

Stevie franchise was a BEAST back in the day. In Live 01 he was almost unstoppable

[@CzarAice01]

as a hardcore T-Mac fan, this really hurts. the first ever basketball shoes I bought was the T-Mac 6, I got his Jerseys from both orlando and Houston, I cheered so hard when he scored 13 pts in 33seconds, he was the reason I played basketball even if I had bad knees(last time i played was in high school). it's still sad to hear how his career ended

[@armandodelossantos736]

Mcgrady and Ralph Sampson both don't deserve those jackets

[@armandodelossantos736]

@Markel Scott Ralph Sampson was garbage for the majority of his career and all his success in the NBA he owes to Olajuwon! Mcgrady is one of the most overrated players to ever live, choked in the playoffs constantly and never made it out the first round! Both of those players just cheapened the basketball hall of fame!

[@armandodelossantos736]

@Markel Scott so one time, Mcgrady had a freak occurrence where he hit a few 3's to win a game in the final minute of the game, so now he's a hall of famer?! That's the one argument people have when they try to justify Mcgrady being in the hall of fame

[@armandodelossantos736]

@Markel Scott yeah he led the league in scoring with 28p a game but only won 21 games! I've been watching tmac since he was drafted, he sucked on the raptors, he came into his own scoring the ball in Orlando, came to my rockets, let us down in the playoffs over and over again just like he did in Orlando! So I know first hand how overrated he is, you shoulder look it up... There's a 30 min video on KZbin about it

[@DavisTbb]

Although he ended (just 31 years old) his carrer as a champion it was really sad to see Chris Bosh wanting to play and not being able to because of health issues.
