Anthony Mason: MOST VERSATILE Enforcer in NBA History? | FPP

[@alfonsogreen2722]

I met Anthony Mason at my job a few years ago. Still can't believe he is gone. R.I.P Mase

[@Teddy42O]

R.I.P. Anthony Mason 🙏 he was Draymond Green that could score & was legit tough.

[@FlowboyVegas1]

He was Anthony Mason…

[@kerry-j4m]

Mason was a-BEAST. He could do-EVERYTHING. 6 ft-7-250 lbs,I know he drew people's attention out in the public. LOL. I bet green wouldn't have punched Mason if he was on the Warriors team.

[@Trellizm]

His handles was wayyy better than Draymond

[@kerry-j4m]

@@Trellizm And Mason's man-to man defense is far superior to Draymond's also.Draymond is a better long range shooter than Mason,but,Mason had a better post up game.And Anthony was so quick and fleet of foot to weigh 250 lbs of solid muscle.

[@terrellwashington3050]

​@@kerry-j4mAnthony Mason would beat the living shit out of Draymond Green....hands down! The same thing that Dray did to Poole wouldn't make it with Big Mase. Draymond is lucky to not have to deal with him. Rest in peace, Anthony Mason.

[@timothywright2952]

Big Mase🗽🗽NY Knicks warrior..R.I.P He was a versatile player who could rebound, dribble & play solid defense. 🏀

[@CliffPierson777]

It was great watching Mase bring the ball up the court lefty, with his legs kicking up and bouncing the ball so hard off the floor.

[@Manny-nm8dh]

He dribbled the ball like it was talking shit to him lol.

[@charlesreed1016]

Man was beyond tough. Had handles. Can pass rebound and defend. Can even score if asked upon. RIP Mase.

[@kerry-j4m]

Mase scored more with the Hornets than he ever did with the Knicks,I'm guessing that was his new role for them. RIP: MASON

[@ThePilot313]

In other words he had GAME💯🔥

[@BiggidyB]

When he played in Charlotte he scored.

[@eugenedantzler4485]

Dude was highly underrated.. Rest in peace Ant man

[@youtuber3328]

national geographic said god and reincarnation are REAL so they PROBABLY are

[@DRV404]

Another PF I loved a lot growing up. He truly was a force. Keep hitting bangers my man 🔥

[@youtuber3328]

would you say the natural position was small or power forward for anthony mason

[@Riles3152]

It wasn’t until he was on Charlotte for those solid late 90’s Hornets teams, that I began to realize how good Mason was. His game was perfect for that 90’s enforcer, physical, big man back to the basket era.

[@nierlluc4705]

Imagine if the Knicks traded Oakley for an all-star or a fringe all-star guard and just let Mason be the point forward, they could've won at least one championship in the early-mid 90's. Better spacing would've made Starks a better cutter and Ewing less prone to double teams.

[@Trellizm]

This what I was waiting for..Mason was one of the original Power point forwards

[@jasonic-ks2tm]

You've mentioned John starks in almost all your videos! Give the man his due

[@philipfarnan4188]

He could jump off either foot and finish with either hand... smooth af.

[@GHOST91141]

I couldn't wait for the Knicks to play so I could see what design Mason had cut in his hair this time 😂

[@MrLurchsThings]

Xavier McDaniel. There’s a name you don’t hear much anymore.

[@chrisricks6363]

X-man

[@brownlady3133]

Vernon Maxwell either...Mad Max

[@Barts538]

This beat in background is such hypnotizing

[@arthurman6129]

Mase had some of the least aesthetically pleasing moves on offense. If you only watch him dribble for 10 seconds you’ll think this guy had no business being in the NBA. Then you watch him play for 10 minutes and you realise he’s actually really good! Mason was so physical on defense that even Hakeem had a tough time against him in the Finals. One of the most unusual physical specimens and personalities. RIP Mase

[@youtuber3328]

if you ask me the best playoff years were #1 86 #2 87 #3 95 and #4 94 for legend hakeem olajuwon

[@flintfleming3935]

Dude. GREAT ANALOGY. U GOT MY VOTE!

[@flintfleming3935]

U GOT MY VOTE.

[@flintfleming3935]

I'm WITH THAT 1000 %

[@flintfleming3935]

Yeah , he was Just as good as Barkley. Undersized fundamentally sound. Miss that and GOD BLESS HIS FAMILY

[@CameronWright-bu3kp]

I grew up in Indiana and remember those Pacers/Knicks games. I hated the Knicks, but I ALWAYS respected Mase and his toughness . And how awkward but sweet was that lefty jumper? Speaking of that I would like to see Dale or Antonio Davis done which was our tough players , especially Dale!!!

[@davidprice4777]

RIP Anthony Mason!He was a good all around NBA Player!I loved his Work Ethnic!

[@Lewis.Alcindor]

I met him at a Knicks ticketholder event during their "successful" 2012-2013 season, a couple of years before he passed. He was about 400 lbs by this time. He was literally the biggest human being I've ever seen, yet he carried that weight well and moved with good grace & light feet. RIP Big Mase.

[@JasonWebber434]

I can just hear Marv Albert saying Anthony Masons name during the game miss those days. 😊

[@Classicbasketballdvds]

rip Mase...very unique player. a point forward with ill handles. really liked his game, esp when he was with Charlotte

[@tokenblack7983]

Think he was giving the hornets 16 and 12 a night…made the all star team if I remember

[@Classicbasketballdvds]

he was balling with the Hornets...he made the all star team in 01 with Miami...solid year, but in the playoffs he disappeared. The whole Heat team actually...that was embarrassing how they lost that series@@tokenblack7983

[@RedGarnett-n2p]

The 1992 first-round series between the Knicks and the Pistons that put an end to whatever was left of the sad boys completely😂😂

[@BSmokeyGaming]

What's funny about that series is that both the Knicks and Pistons had similar playstyle. The Knicks were the new Bad Boys going up against the old Bad Boys.

[@RedGarnett-n2p]

@@BSmokeyGaming but you would be correct the Knicks had Xavier McDaniel on their team that year and Gerald Wilkins I'm pretty sure was still there yes he was because Cleveland made fools of theirselves the next year trying to call him the Jordan stopper when they brung him there and got their asses swept the funny part is that Cleveland done better the year before without Wilkins

[@whoisbrandonfoy]

RIP to Mase. Him & Oak in NY was crazy. Loved watching him man.

[@joncabotxox9389]

LOVED MASE!!!! He will forever be a NY Knick to me

[@4392amtrak]

I would love to see a profile on Jason Eugene Terry

[@Teddy42O]

Michael Adams

[@kerry-j4m]

Mason was a menace off the court,fighting 10 cops !!! LOL. He's lucky they didn't shoot him.And who in their right mind would antagonize a guy -6 ft-7-weigning 250 lbs of solid muscle ????

[@ZPMBTV]

Firstly; anybody from NYC in the 90’s could find Anthony Mason playing Point Guard at The Cage in Harlem. All Summer. That’s when I knew this Man was Special; I was like?!? Damn… how come he don’t do that in the NBA and my brother explained how in the league you get stuck playing Position Ball, that was then, now it’s Positionless Basketball. Anthony Mason was Ahead of his Time. Salute to Bro and May God Bless his Soul.

[@FlyingImmortal]

Funny....I always thought Mase was better in the NBA than in NYC summer league.....West 4th, Lost Battalion, Tillary, Rucker......he was getting cooked by lesser players.

[@ZPMBTV]

@@FlyingImmortal : Funny; I’m guessing he was supposed to go 100% against lesser players while he was under contract with the Knicks huh? 😂😂😂 NBA players are Not allowed to go 100% during summer leagues they play to stay in shape. Everyone sees the same Game Differently. Salute To You for Being There Old Dude. 🫡

[@FlyingImmortal]

@@ZPMBTV Well , most of the dudes who played in those leagues were playing professionally overseas and also had contracts. Plus NOT playing hard is a good way to get injured.

[@ZPMBTV]

@@FlyingImmortal : 🫡🫡🫡

[@JaeSproo]

Welk 😂, was he REALLY GETTING COOKED? Or was he playing in a league where nobody plays defense and the crowd is only there to see people score?? ​@@FlyingImmortal

[@Boss3Nate]

One of my all time favs... R.I.P. Big Mase.. On a side note.. imagine how terrifying Anthony Mason probably was in high school.. hahaha. I can't even imagine

[@Bwwe82090]

R.I.P Anthony Mason, great defensive player and had a great career despite the issues he had in his career.

[@davidsmith228]

Very tough and versatile basketball player. RIP Mason

[@Digital_Dude2000]

Do Jack Sikma next, he was such an underrated big man, and a Seattle Sonics legend!

[@lilpenny1982]

I think Riles didn't use Mason enough in the mid-1990's. Mase was way better than Charles Smith but Riles was too arrogant to make the change.

[@Quazey8]

It wasn't that, Mase would always pick up bad technical fouls arguing calls lol

[@leeroygreene85]

There is some truth to that, being Riley was involved in that trade for Charles Smith. But for it to work, Mase was so vital off the bench. Yet, Mase would close a lot of the games as well.

[@lilpenny1982]

@@leeroygreene85 Mase was also a very good ball handler and could beat the Bulls full court or half court press.

[@lilpenny1982]

@@leeroygreene85 Also Riles should've played Hubert Davis more minutes when Starks was off during Game 7 of the 1994 NBA Finals.

[@leeroygreene85]

@@lilpenny1982 lol heck even Rolando Blackman. Riley has since admitted he should’ve done something about that. But he was loyal to Starks clearly.

[@southbeachtalent]

Ty so much for this video!!! Need to hear from Knicks fans. As a die hard 90's NBA fan the Hornets absolutely won the Mase for LJ trade. Larry Johnson was shot and old by the time he stepped on the floor for Knicks in 96. Mason was nearing the end of his prime but was hype for Charlotte and a MUCH better player than Grandmama at the time

[@andresdelportillo9917]

Bro hornets got smoked by LJ in the 97 playoffs 🤣 mase couldn’t guard LJ , what series were you watching ?

I usually think of an enforcer as someone with no skills. Just there to rough people up. Mason was highly skilled. He was a good player, almost great for a couple of years.
