[@AustinSweatt]

Edit: - Chauncey won finals MVP - Ben won 4 DPOY awards in 5 years not 4 straight - Two minor mistakes, but I'll make sure there is none next video

[@AustinSweatt]

Yes and his aren't consecutive either

[@bojanjovicic1723]

why did you make such a big mistake? Man Big Ben was my favorite player next to K.Garnett....if you are making a video about a nba legend please give your best. Long live Serbia.

[@stkthefirst3463]

2004 DPOY was Ron Artest right?

[@sdude0572]

Austin Sweatt I was about to roast u for that

[@benzanemenia9564]

What's why is undrafted he's draft in 1996

[@ramonvicentevallesterosric7802]

Ben did what no other big man can do in NBA in 2004... Face Shaq in a battle of strength...

[@DreChilly]

Dude, I can't thank you enough for this video my mom got me season tickets for 41 home games during the "going to work era piston's" for the 02-03 through 04-05 seasons and it was crazy watching this Man rebound and block shots anybody at the palace in those days would tell u how frustrated other team's coaches would be because they're teams Bigs couldn't box him out or keep him off the glass you would hear them screaming "seal his ass from the baseline up with 2 players! and he would still find a way to get the rebound pure hustle and determination he embodies the city of Detroit and the tough hard work image I still find myself getting goosebumps of him blocking Shaq's dunk (game 5 2005 EFC) I was at that game and just the overall energy he brought every night! There hopefully will be another lock down big just like Ben Wallace to control the flow and how the game is controlled defensively he was truly something to watch me and the old man that I use to sit next too we would start that famous countdown when the opponent had 12 secs to shoot and when they missed or the shot clock expired the palace would hit his Big Ben Tower Gong and Mason would chant DEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTRRRRRROOOOOIIIITTTTT BBBBBAAAAASSSSSKKKKEEETTTBBBBAAALLLLL........... Anyway great time and memories looking at these old clips.

[@J_StLou1s]

You just wrote the full elder scroll in the comments

[@DreChilly]

@@J_StLou1s lol haha like u wouldn't believe what a time to be alive!

[@Doc.G]

you're lucky, man! how i wish i could watch an NBA game.

[@DreChilly]

@@Doc.G yes sir I have been truly blessed and I appreciate those memories like you wouldn't believe.

[@Doc.G]

@@DreChilly imagine on the Palace where the crowd goes wild. with no phones and shit, just living in the moment. i can't imagine the euphoria. btw i'm from the Philippines so i haven't been to a single NBA game ever. it's my dream tho as as aspiring veterenarian.

[@milesshaw9059]

Proves that the 1996 Draft class was such a stacked class.

[@lilbru]

Thank you ChArles oakley for seeing something special in Ben.

[@jtheist32]

Being from the mitten - my favorite player of all time. When I played, I wanted to get every rebound, and block every shot. I wanted to be Ben Wallace.

[@xanderpiurek4406]

Underrated channel

[@AustinSweatt]

I've grown quickly so hopefully not for long :p

[@gangtime8705]

Austin Sweatt Ben was not finals MVP

[@heatheroranellas2007]

[@inflamedscrote6401]

Glad to see your channel starting to gain more subs I can remember like a month or 2 ago when i subscribed you only had like 70 something

[@AustinSweatt]

Thanks ! But yeah I've gotten about 11k subs in about a month so it's going good !

[@ChristopherFowler198]

Big Ben!!!!!!!!! One of my fav players ever!!!

[@David-mu7dm]

Great video!

[@jareddavidmanifold313]

Ben was the shortest big man on that 94 pistons team. He was listed at 6'9 but was really 6'7

[@timotheekroband446]

Dwight also led the league in rebounds and blocks in the same season twice

[@AustinSweatt]

Even when I think I have all my facts checked... I miss something lol my bad

[@xiamfinal571]

Austin Sweatt not the only thing you had wrong

[@timotheekroband446]

xIamFinal hey do the video ok?

[@timotheekroband446]

The Rose in The Garden Yao yes Shaq no

[@jonathandeas8649]

Who has a ring

[@deathchair2006]

I always point to the sky with two thumbs like Big Ben whenever I block opponents on the court.

[@DungarooTV]

Love your commenting. Although you don't have the classic "commentators" voice - your sentences are pronounced clearly and easy to understand. Keep up the great work!

[@bartekwojtyczek2681]

And now he got inducted into the HOF! So happy for him!

[@Hurricanedee97]

Thanks, man!! Some interesting facts that I didn't know about Big Ben

[@Naitructus]

Here before it goes viral...

[@AustinSweatt]

XD

[@panurujampaporn4007]

Ben Wallace is 6'9 and played as a starting Center.

[@scottyyt9925]

I got an ad for narcos on this video, you've been blessed Austin

[@AustinSweatt]

Lmao

[@albertdavila6808]

a true inspiration

[@austenlivesitup]

Great channel bro

[@AustinSweatt]

Thanks man!

[@wakuluriel4363]

I always win in NBA 2k playstation with the bet of $100 because of this guy's superb strong defence i love this guy! Hall of famer!

[@shaunbell9174]

ben was a great player miss him.

[@dudeabides23]

One small correction - Billups was Finals MVP

[@bartekwojtyczek2681]

that's correct. I don't know where he got that from

[@andrewgracia1443]

Perseverance

[@carboy101]

No way. We're going to be riding this hurricane out together my boy. Good luck to you, I hope you're prepared.

[@AustinSweatt]

Yes we'll get through it . Same to you

[@markanthonyfrancisco6047]

Ben did not win finals MVP and he did not win defensive player of the year 4 strait times ... Artest won it on 03-04 season... Anyway great stuff here ...I didn't even know Oakley was part of bens life... Great video

[@AustinSweatt]

Yeah man I need to look at multiple sources from now on, but thanks!

[@bobhollywood6292]

inspirational

[@nbafan9706]

Prayers for you

[@Reefzr]

Lol in the beginning when you said here's me, there's me, I feel like you was talkin about irma...well I think it's gonna hit Cutler Bay reeeal hard but by the looks of where your at pfft your fine! I live around the Hialeah area and I don't think I have nothing to worry about 😁

[@AustinSweatt]

Yes Irma . And we will still get hit hard but yeah we'll be fine . Worried about the othe one now though too

[@mr.alldaylong9879]

Do a where are they now on shanon brown

[@AustinSweatt]

Yes I will!

[@yeahright6048]

5:05 Holy fuck that was insane

[@ItsTheMunz]

You do good research so therefore I think an AI video is worth doing. That way you can probably have the most reliable video for accuracy rather than exaggerated internet rumour stuff. Digging your vids.

[@AustinSweatt]

Thanks I'm gonna do that soon. I appreciate it !

[@biongrenn8010]

this guy... he's not real big, but he's a fckn real man.

[@stoppelhopser6]

loved the Word document though

[@alvinjaro9959]

Inspiring

[@davidwashburn5635]

Austin Sweatt could u do a video on a great shooter ppl forge about n that player being Michael Reds?

[@santijapakdw1544]

nice word

[@BIGBLU19]

I know all about this hall of famer

[@adid8605]

Nice video

[@yurancito]

Yoooooooooo Malice at the palace

[@BinniamEskender]

No way that is the truth! 1:10 ... I'm googlin' that sh*t now! haha

[@docdee770]

Remember when all the NBA players were long and stringy, like Tayshaun Prince, and not muscle-bound like Big Ben?

[@jetlagfrias]

He played center position for the pistons

[@AustinSweatt]

On and off

[@headbuster103]

Damn how big were his brothers then???

[@ChampagneGars]

saw your script at 7:21 :)

[@retseldezmu808]

its all because of charles oakley

[@kevindurant7786]

Ben Did Not Win Finals MVP

[@J_StLou1s]

sup kd

[@hotsaucebone]

Imagine that pistons would pick Carmelo or wade for the 2013 draft....

[@youngobama8125]

Bonon Liu 2003*

[@melobeast7]

Do Xavier Henry or Josh Shelby

[@AustinSweatt]

Oh yeah for sure I'll look into it

[@finnbrennan9733]

When was he drafted

[@ball1slife107]

why did u show the script

[@serdominater0363]

We don’t talk about when the pistons passed on Carmelo

[@Reefzr]

But WHERE ALL MY FLORIDIANS AT!?!🌀🌊

[@Obviously_pro]

anybody else see his script at the end

[@0ptimal]

If Reggie Miller can make the HOF, then Been Wallace better too

[@noahwilson9512]

Idk if you have changed your mind since it’s been long but i completely disagree about the Reggie Miller part. Ben Wallace does deserve to be in the HOF but Reggie has the most 3 pointers made in a career until ray allen past him so both deserve it

[@bartekwojtyczek2681]

He actually made the HOF in 2021! Super happy for this guy. He worked very hard for everything that he achieved in his life. Very deserved induction into the pantheon of NBA legends!

[@bryantndongmo4780]

ben wallace at sg lmao

[@triplee2103]

You got everything wrong he never played basketball til around his junior year in high school and he is 6 foot 9 not 6 foot 7 and and Chauncey was finals mvp

[@bigianoso03]

Chauncey billups win the finals mvp

[@keidenn]

Do where is he now on zydruanas ilguaskas

[@JCPFILMS]

Bro... Billups won Finals MVP that year.

[@owen9174]

6:57 script leak

[@jakejablonski6600]

I thought Chauncey won MVP

[@KingCoopaJ]

You're a beast bro💪 If you can, check out my channel and let me know what you think. I cover all sports. Lit🔥

[@LuisAFernandezTRD]

I like Ben Wallace great player great person but not a Hall of Famer

[@nba4life9]

Ben wallace was 6'9

[@gustasvarnagys]

he didnt win the NBA Finals MVP either

[@joeyp8256]

One of the best centers in NBA history?? I like Ur delivery, respect Ur hustle, and appreciate Ur effort but that statement imo is a bit ridiculous. Again, imo def not top 5 , probably not top ten. BWallace was a beast with an extraordinary motor but his overall game was slightly above average in my mind. Anyway, thanks for this n all Ur uploads. As i said i have a great day of respect for Ur husltle and work ethic. Stay on Ur grind n stay blind to dem haters

[@papab127]

he is a hall of famer ffs. it means he is one of the best ever to play the game

[@davidwashburn5635]

Austin Sweatt do a where is he now Jason "White Chocolate" Williams. Also great videos keep it up I'm a Lakers fan so I love ur shirt but I hate Lonzo Ball he garbage

[@AustinSweatt]

david washburn lolol yes I'll do him and his dads garbage but it looks like he'll be a good player

[@davidwashburn5635]

+Austin Sweatt thx Austin hope everyone u kno in Florida n urself will b ok wit that hurricane.

[@davidwashburn5635]

+Austin Sweatt could u sub to my channel plz?

[@dominiquepapin6782]

I might be tripping but I thought Chauncey won finals MVP

[@opeyemibajowa9089]

Bruh Ben Wallace was never Finals mvp

[@bryancalvario9609]

Nba storys channels are cancer

[@russellpo7758]

Wallace didn't win the finals MVP

[@AustinSweatt]

lol i know mistake

[@calebng7827]

wasnt chauncey billups finals mvp?

[@AustinSweatt]

.. yes 😠

[@opeyemibajowa9089]

Ben Wallace never won finals mvp

[@crtz3924]

He should have if he didn't stop shaq the series might have went the other way

[@oneman9121]

Ben Wallace never stopped Shaq. Shaq led the 2004 NBA Finals numbers at 26 ppg 10 rpg and 63% fg respectively. If the Lakers went to Shaq more they would've won the series, but another player on the Lakers felt otherwise and decided he'd have the worst NBA Finals ever.

[@joebob9809]

IbTusPeter who was this other player

[@julianblair4764]

I have a new respect for Charles Oakley

[@JeoTivii-YT]

I WAS SHOCKED CHARLES OAKLEY MADE BEN WALLACE

[@lilkrayjones398]

My favorite nba player of all time

[@johnnycee9325]

He didnt win Finals Mvp Chauncey Billups did but still great video!

[@killadez3511]

From being Undrafted to NBA champion to BASKETBALL HALL OF FAMER!!! Congrats BIG BEN WALLACE 👏🏾💪🏾🏆

[@Jdanchie]

Ben was a beast Wallace...

[@duboissimmons4057]

Check your video bc some your information is wrong

[@traynikhwanan6633]

he was draymond before draymond

[@skrynnskrylla3897]

Trayn Ikhwanan his Defense ability dwarfs Draymond shit sorry!! Dray is great on defense but Ben was a whole nother animal...

[@DerkuiDerkui]

2 errors: Ben Wallace was 6'9, not 6'7, and was not the 2004 Finals MVP (Chauncey Billups was)

[@MrRay30]

Great video bro...salute keep it up great content

[@AustinSweatt]

Thanks I will!

[@HOLYMANSASSASIN]

You didn't mention any dates or what year things happened

[@kinglucha3640]

Great video, but that shirt? 😣

[@davidwashburn5635]

Redd stupid auto correct

[@boksugoks9312]

Wait how does it say in 2:04 in the TV telecast that Big Ben was 6'10" when he was just 6'9"?

[@yurancito]

I love how he shows himself and then Irma

[@lilkrayjones398]

Why yao ming is in the hall of fame not ben wallace?

[@AustinSweatt]

Probably cause his impact on the NBA globally . But Ben will be soon

[@yurancito]

His face kills me tho

[@demongod8977]

[@g.beeton2918]

[@kingkopkashboi7272]

[@Dreamerland101]
