It ultimately was a short blip, but there was about a five-year stretch where there was a real debate as to whether Chris Paul or Deron Williams was the best point guard in the NBA. From 2008 to 2012, Williams averaged 19.5 PPG and 10.2 APG and guided the Jazz on some decent playoff runs. Williams was even a major contributor to the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Gold Medal teams. For whatever reason, Williams career really fell off once he turned 29 and he was out of the NBA before he turned 33 years old. So, while he clearly lost the battle with Chris Paul for Point God, he was still a star in the league for half a decade.

What sucks about D Will is before Cleveland traded for him he was having a resurgence in Dallas. He never returned to his all star form but he was looked at as a quality guard in the league. Then he just completely forgot how to play basketball all over again

[@fouadhaydar6952]

He was the reason the nets failed with KD against Milwaukee

[@darika3672]

That Joe Harris is most likely a construction worker now. Harvesting all the bricks he made while playing in the NBA playoffs.

[@knicks2030]

I have watched a lot of your videos Andy, this one hurt for some reason. Maybe cause I was aware of all of these situations and these player's careers. Harris is the only one I was not as up on. I vaguely remember him not playing well in that series, but I forgot or did not know how bad it really was. I knew how good he was before and how not good he was after lol. IT was amazing for that one season, especially at that size. Then you had the death of his sister in that playoff series too. Deron was my pick over CP3 back in the day. I remember when he got traded to the Nets and my roommate in college was a Nets fan. He had a couple of decent seasons but I remember that 2017 finals. Unplayable is a perfect way to say it, but they had to play him because that was how slim that Cavs team was. It is like he forgot how to play basketball.

[@zenmaster8826]

Roy Hibbert was never the same again after that abysmal playoff series

[@yungcabbage]

That’s a good one I ain’t thought about that in years

[@VictorFernandezBigdestroyer]

I’ve hated Deron Williams ever since that playoff series against the Heat. And when he became the laughing stock in 2017, I’ve hated him even more

[@pp3k3jamail]

Did you really think that old ass super team the nets had was going to beat that heat team? like come on bruh y'all people delusional.

[@VictorFernandezBigdestroyer]

@@pp3k3jamail I still hate Deron Williams till this very day. No dumb questions or anything. I have nothing against the rest of the Nets team, but I still hate Deron, for deciding the disappearing act and for being mentally weak.

[@JadenJPDB]

Its sad how Joe Harris retired in a bad ending after having struggles in Detroit he retired at the age of 33 years old. He was the best 3 point shooter a few years ago to this.

[@mannynum20]

that first part where he said harris was just “standing around” was a completely differently play😂just tryna mak him look worse

[@pamoon_]

I think RDC said it best about Deron Williams: "Deron...1 point?!"

[@jsdzx]

I use to say this about the pure catch and shoot type. Even peak Kyle Korver would fall off in the playoffs. If you can’t put the ball on the floor at all defense closes out on you. That’s a testament to Duncan Robinson to add dribble drives to his game to give variation.

[@0-2-1]

If simmons and harris played to even 70% of their capabilities the Nets wouldve won the championship

[@ezov4a258]

Please make the second part. It's very intresting!

[@Xtuboi]

As a Nets fan I miss Joe he used to be a great 3 point shooter 😢

[@LightStreak567]

1:07 The truth is the Bucks won because of Brook Lopez blocking KD's shot there (which happened during Overtime). If he hadn't blocked that, the tip of KD's feet on the 3 point line would have been seen as a delay of the inevitable.

[@jermayne16]

Man that Joe Harris playoff run was brutal I felt so bad for him

[@MatthewLum11]

I'm subscribed to Andy Hoops with my burner account, but I just had to comment with my real one. Thank you for making this video, Andy. Everyone wants to make a big deal about Kevin Durant's foot on the line, but the bigger reason the Nets had such a disappointing playoffs that season is Joe Harris. Frankly, Joe was one of my favorite players on that Brooklyn squad, but I was flabbergasted at just how awful he played. What in the world went wrong? This guy was an NBA 3-point contest winner and led the league in two separate seasons from beyond the arc. Something affected him that perhaps we will never know. 🏀

[@4a_atm]

Ben Simmons, Nick Anderson, and Roy Hibbert.

[@supernotnatural]

KD was a champion with Nets if Joe Harris didn't choke. He had literally no one and almost beat Bucks. People who compare KD to Giannis should STFU first. Giannis sucks with Lilllard atm LOL

[@pranavnair4263]

2 MVPs>1

[@yoitsSmitty2004]

Giannis is averaging 31/11/6 right now this season, I don’t think he sucks with Lillard main problem is doc and the Middleton injury and Lillard playing mid all season (Aside from December)

[@tonytone1395]

Giannis don't suck lol

[@sjwgenius7347]

The way the Celtics treated Isaiah is the reason why some FA or stars are not willing to go to Boston, for example AD’s father specifically said he doesn’t want his son to go to Celtics because of how they treated Isaiah Thomas

[@fredm.2699]

Its a dumb statement..essentially, you can always say that about the Celtics. Stars will go to boston. Just like they’ll go to some other big market.

[@TheSmoothViewASMR]

I haven't watched the full video yet but the first person that came to mind was Ben Simmons

[@FunGuy02626]

As a Celtics fan, it's so sad to see on what happened to IT. I hated Ainge for that. Yeah business wise, Ainge did it pretty good for the team but I just feel like hurt for IT. I also love Kyrie but I was more a big fan of IT though. Hip injuries on small players totally diminish their performance on the court

[@thisguyzack9922]

That was honestly Bostons fault for not letting him get surgery or atleast sit out, if he did then maybe he would still play on the celtics and still be good

[@eddiejohnson5078]

Ben Simmons (Man Shot) Nick Anderson (Magic vs Rockets) Free throw away, John Starks Knicks vs Rockets (NY State of Fallen off) Jr Smith in Cleveland (no time outs)

[@bb1111116]

Thomas should be off the list/video (more of an injury problem) and Ben Simmons should be on it.

[@jordansingh2388]

Joe costed kd a ring I will always remember that!!

[@adamh3098]

Sad about Joe, I got to watch him play in High School. It’s amazing seeing a guy who played as a center in HS transition to an elite 3 point shooter in the NBA. Too bad it didn’t work out
