Chris Mullin: The Lefty Larry Bird? The 1992 US Olympic Dream Team’s MOST UNKNOWN Career | FPP

[@AMart870]

Man this one was needed, Chris Mullin aka "Mully" wasn't athletic but his Lefty Jumper WAS CASH, when he was healthy with the Warriors he was good for 25 a game and damn near 50/40/90 shooting, CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED!

[@IAMGavinMitchell]

Chris Mullin to genuine basketball fans is NOT underrated. The guy won 2 gold medals. He was a player of the year in college, a multiple-time all-star, all-NBA selection & overcame alcoholism to become one of the best of his time. He is a 2-time Hall of Famer for a reason. Appreciate the video.

[@O.J.S.]

One of the best small forwards of the late 80's and early 90's!!!

[@kerry-j4m]

TOO bad he couldn't guard any one,no defensive ability at all. LOL. Mullin was a shorter version of Dirk Nowitzki ( Dirk didn't even try to play any defense,his lack of trying to play any defense got Shawn Bradley ( I believe he was 7 ft-6,he also once played with Dirk on the-MAVS ) posterized by several players like-T-Mac,Kobe,etc,etc,.

[@O.J.S.]

@@kerry-j4m In a career spanning about 16 years, he did manage to average 1.6 STEALS PER GAME. While steals don't indicate someone's defensive prowess, it does indicate some modicum of defensive effort. If nothing else it indicates a willingness to play the passing lane to gain a possession for your team. As far as comparisons to Dirk? No, their games did not even remotely resemble one another. There is a reason that he was on the 1992 Dream Team, that is because he was THE REAL DEAL!

[@kerry-j4m]

@@O.J.S. Mullin was a good player,but,his defense was lacking,severely.

[@O.J.S.]

@@kerry-j4m I didn't say that he was All-World defensively, but to compare him to Dirk defensively is just downright disrespectful.

[@kerry-j4m]

@@O.J.S. Neither player played any defense,they were more offensive minded,nothing wrong with that,Allen Iverson was also like this.

[@troyfew2373]

Chris Mullin played in the prime Big East and got his; he bounced the ball off the floor, hit the backboard, and he caught and dunked it one hand on the fast break by himself, I was a fan ever since; I already liked him, but that sealed the deal

[@midnightcassettelibrary5171]

These stories are important in many ways. A big one in this story is he showed and proved that a person can really transform themselves if they get their mind right. Big time powerful role modelling. Things aren’t hopeless if we dig deep and do that work.

[@lrod2004]

Mully spanned the Lakers 80’s dynasty, the Bulls Dynasty and the Lakers second Dynasty (not counting Detroit or Houston). A great player who would have been even better in today’s space and pace NBA.

[@notoriousLSGshow]

Mully was a great player , those runTMC teams were so fun to watch the limited times they would be on - thanks for the Mully docu- much appreciated

[@bulwyf2572]

I loved Mully's game so much. His jumper was so wet. He also had great court vision and high basketball IQ. He had some great hands as well, people forget before the injuries he was a good defender.

[@AlbertoGonzalez-xn1lw]

Never saw this coming cuz for me Mully wasnt a forgotten player

[@louiejordan6933]

Peace and prosperity to everyone in the chat . Chris Mullin was and is a class act working at jw Marriott Essex house hotel in the city I would see him when he was coaching St. Johns and he never acted like he was above anyone so happy he overcame his addiction and gave us fans his all. Salute to him

[@DanMarin-lf7fe]

Hes definitely not forgotten, U gotta do more unknown players .

[@Billy-ot8mk]

The final part of the Warriors Run TMC trio.

[@DRV404]

Waiting for my food to arrive. Have this on pause😂 keep it cooking my man!

[@marcusleary8571]

Great to see this Mullin was a real good player, I’m hoping for a mark price individual breakdown and hopefully a Elton brand one too

[@GHOST91141]

I remember watching a game back in the day Chris Mullin dropped like 40 all his shots were damn near all net

[@calebellis7173]

Chris Mullin in my opinion is the most underrated player in nba history love you covered all the old school warriors you should do Chris Webber next

[@jeremyhards1911]

Mullin is definitely underrated. I would agree with you on C Webb. The Kings were robbed. I would also include Mark Price as one of the most underrated point guards to ever play the game. I would even say The Admiral is underrated.

[@TheDamianG]

As a born and raised NY'er and a St.Johns fan in the 80's and 90's I'm gad to see Chris is getting portrayed here. sweet jumper, good passer seemed like you look up and he had put up 25 before you realized what happend.

[@zoeledwards6617]

Chris Mullen is a great NBA player while didn’t score over 20,000 points nor didn’t win a championship but he definitely had outstanding hall of fame career and part of Run Tmc trio.

[@randytuittii3622]

Run TMC had a losing record and never won a playoff series

[@truthserum6672]

I'm a Bay area fan born n raised. I started watching sports on TV in 1988. I read every box score for the warriors and giants until 2002. This is what I think about the title of Mullin being the left-handed Larry Bird, 😂+🫵🏿🤣

[@truthserum6672]

​@@randytuittii3622We were competing with great stacked teams that had interior players we could not defend. Dampier was our best center from 1976-2003. Shaq could have changed that narrative in an instant. If any of the hall of Fame centers chose to come to the warriors would have given them the best opportunity to win. But they were too stupid to realize we had the best perimeter players that needed just one rugged big man. Whether it was at the power forward or center position

[@truthserum6672]

​​@@randytuittii3622 The Warriors drafted Webber and instantly went to the playoffs. That was the floor for a team on an upwards trajectory. He never got to play with Hardaway, Mullin, or Richmond. Richmond was traded Mullins was hurt, Hardaway got hurt when Mullins came back. Sprewell needed to grow the whole order of operation was out of whack. You can't give a fair assessment because of dumb moves by management. And a boycott by the big men in the league thinking the warriors were too soft to even contemplate playing for us. Billy Owens messed us up, man 😂

[@MannyMensah94]

Run tmc had a winning season and won a playoff series in 1991.

[@Zamppa86]

One of the most efficient and beautiful lefties of all time. A Dream Teamer. Video well deserved and probably needed even though for an old school fan Mully won't be forgotten. I would have a name for you who definitely is underrated and probably also a bit forgotten. Most people probably have not heard about him at all. SIDNEY MONCRIEF! The legend tells he was so good defensively that the DPOY trophy was pretty much created because of him and 'for him'. He needs a video!

[@satanicskater8136]

Amazing stuff, thanks! Plz upload more vidz more oftenly hehe much appreciated

[@greyklopstock7155]

Criminally underrated. I grew up in the bay area, and when the warriors were STINKY, I remember getting my Chris Mullin throwback for my birthday along with a new Nerf gun back in grade school. The older teachers would be like "what you know about Chris Mullin!?" I still wear that jersey sometimes. Chris Mullin was as good of a hooper as there ever was.

[@high-defRJ]

One of my favorite players of all time. He just possessed the sweet, smooth looking left-handed shooting stroke that I really loved watching and emulating despite me being right-handed.

[@onebadlt123]

Damn, I just found your channel and as a new sub I'm hooked on this series. I grew up in the 80s and 90s so this is definitely a trip down memory lane. Love your channel

[@TerrenceLP]

St John's Redman 🎉 they called me his cousin, Bob 😂

[@billybaugus1249]

Love channel! Thanks for your videos

[@JoeScardina-ij9ne]

One of my dad's and therefore my all time favorite players! 🏀

[@hawkspirals3483]

I saw him play once live in Oakland, his hands were so fast they blurred my vision

[@devontaeshort9907]

Appreciate this one bro one I requested and waited for Reggie Miller and Rasheed Wallace next

[@incorrigiblerogue1193]

He had that great left hand shot and the best flattop in the 90s.

[@unappealingundesirable2826]

31:35 Chris Mullin turnaround jumper over Sarunas Marciulionis.

[@Coolhandchris5]

Marciulionis and Mullin were 2 of the greatest lefties ! Marciulionis the creator of the Eurostep

[@TheDamianG]

17:19 is that john starks next to mullin?

[@AlbertoGonzalez-xn1lw]

Yes... he was a bench player

[@lashgoshotwheels1127]

Thank you 😊

[@doldi5400]

One of my favorite all time.

[@Jay-fx1qz]

Theo Ratliff vid please 🙏 I need to see my king be honored the way he should be

[@simoneceruso5630]

One of my fav❤

[@Coolhandchris5]

One of the greatest left handed shooters of All Time! Period. Probably top 3

[@CliffPierson777]

BK stand TF up! Mully was a underrated all around player. Could get his assist, rebounds and steals. We all know this guy couldn't be left open to shoot.

[@lukaz3883]

My favorite NBA player ever ! I’ve tried to model my game after his since I’m a lefty too.

[@MikeCerrooq1zt]

My favorite player got to play with him at dyker park im 6ft3 we killed everyone on the court

[@thomasbridges7323]

Ahhhhh man college basketball was very good back in his g years all college games were good to watch.

[@deontae777]

real good one

[@unappealingundesirable2826]

You MUST all know these things about me, so that you can understand where, when and HOW I grew up: I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American and male. 5'10", a decent height for an Asian male of my generation. Right-handed. Decent, not great jumper. Now, I was done with anything beyond shooting around, at 28 and beyond. Still, I liked to do deliberate dribbles, zone in on the basket, and shoot the fundamental jump shot, and pretend that I was Chris Mullin. What I admired, was how Chris Mullen could BLOCK SHOTS! Figuratively, and even literally, I was a Larry Bird/Chris Mullin shot-blocker: I wasn't going to outjump anybody like Hakeem Olajuwon or Shaquille O'Neal. Rather, like Mullin and Bird, I "learned the tendencies of opponents," and I would "time my jump, with when I thought he would release his shot." I would have that ONE split moment, where I could block a shot. In a pre-season Phoenix at Golden State Game in 1992-93, I saw Chris Mullin block a Mark West shot.

[@thomasbridges7323]

Ahhhhh yeah very nice game he had and nice shot too.

[@christophertifre2018]

Super efficient

[@Opticprizm]

Jaques Demolay Occidental Chapter #72 Ballard Washington State Hoop veteran I'm 46 now , I mirrored my hoop game off Mully & Shaq so I could score if I really needed to I had my go-to shot I couldn't miss , my junior year of H.S. I broke my wrist dunking and slipping off the wet Pacific northwest outdoor rim when i slam dunked on the 9½ foot rim I'm only 5'10 so i never had the height to move onto the next level I Played rec league thru H.S. in college and NBA but if I was 6'10 I woulda been 1st Round Pick fosho

[@rajiemseabrook347]

Thanks for this one. Long overdue ….appreciate you and your channel! Consider Felipe Lopez Rik Smits Trent Tucker Dell Curry Rony Seikaly Charles Smith Billy Owens

[@truthonly-]

He had the left of death jump shot

[@youngethking6853]

Do Cuttino Mobley

[@PhillyCYOSports]

Its not fair to compare him to Bird because he’s white. It’s unnecessary. He’s a legend in his own right.

[@sk1b-m244]

Is it true!

[@marioaustin9312]

40 + minutes!! How long does it take the edit these things😅

[@thengyang5537]

Top 20 players in the late 80s/90s...top 5 fowards in the late 80s/ 90s..Malone..Barkley..Pippen..Rodman..Mullins...From 88 to 93...Today's weak long ball era with no d would fit Mullins perfectly.

[@jamarcuscarter5197]

Man was a beast period

[@eugenedantzler4485]

If he never had the injuries..... Id say he would be top 25 all time

[@oldmansportsog2514]

Chris mullin in NBA Jam was a great player to use

[@thomasbridges7323]

Naw he wasn't a lefty Larry bird. He just what he made him self what us black dude was saying he's a bad white dude and we all watched him play ball. And he always came to play thanks for this

[@FreeFire88s]

Better times man

[@ynotefil]

IMO, Chris Mullin Will Always Be A Bay Area Sports Legend.

[@James-ki5ix]

Just don't know why mullin didn't come off the beach when he got to Indiana and bird didn't just start f-ing Rose? Pacers probably could have had a better chance of winning a championship from 98-00, by the time mullin got out of Cali he was already declining, really don't know what Larry Bird was thinking about 🤔 at that time?

[@DanMarin-lf7fe]

Haircut can do wonders lol

[@daveruegg6769]

Why they never made a legit card of Prime Mullin in my team 2k ill never know

[@markprice2225]

I CALL BULLSHIT!! CHRIS MULLEN WAS a Member of The DREAM TEAM 🏀

[@MindfulAttraction2.0]

mullins looked so adorable *no diddy*

[@kylethomas2993]

Love the vids, could you do Brad Miller sometime?

[@chaseadams5037]

Chris Mullin was awesome!

[@master-kq3nw]

He was new version Larry bird smart player

[@Royal_G80]

I'm a Warriors fan and Chris Mullin was kinda like a poor man's Larry Bird. He was not underrated at that time. He was one of the best scorers and shooters in the late 80s early 90s. He's beloved by Warrior fans, along with Tim Hardaway and Mitch Richmond. But yeah, he's been mostly forgotten by the NBA over the years.

[@doomsday4004]

prime player vs prime chris mullin ?? who do you pick ???

[@vanyerrell6553]

Can you do rick mahorn please?

[@carloaborde]

request video for Tim Hardaway

[@ForgottenPlayerProfiles]

My Tim hardaway video is linked at the end of this video

[@dsanchez9703]

This guy was great if he only would of had more defense he would of been up higher

[@lanceparker4796]

Do Shaeef Abdur Raheem.

[@ToddNash-xf3xg]

He was good, but wasn't Bird

[@Bigedub101]

Call me Arenas cause im pulling out the Blinky next day

Is this the first HOFer on this list?

[@thomasbridges7323]

Like I said bad white dude thanks glad to watch and. To see these star players. Ahhhh he got two gold medal 🏅 that tell what kinda player he was made everyone he played with.

[@doomsday4004]

chris mullin is the second best player ever for golden state warriors.

[@laurebhayes4920]

Micheal Beasley next. Come on.

[@johndavis9321]

Good one

[@RPB_33411]

I don't know how Mullin got in over Nique.

[@The_Gallowglass]

He played better than Jordan in the 1992 dream team except for assists, which Jordan doubled. People sleep on that dude.

[@lonnellgrigsby1367]

That outfit is Dope pants to tight for my liking she wearing pajamas outside breaking all the rules.

[@ababilashari9970]

PPL DONT KNOW CHRIS MULLIN??? (im an unc)

[@zendariuskincaid5205]

Ok ok ok 41:00 slow it down id say he’s better than Hardaway Sr……. Mitch Richmond tho???? That’s literally the only NBA player MICHAEL jordan didn’t get the best of and was scared to see

[@EricKoonitsky-bd3hl]

No. Jordan thoroughly outplayed Richmond in head to head matchups and was never scared. I get that his channel is the place to dream on players and extrapolate from shining moments, which is what makes it great, but this statement is patently ridiculous.

[@rayshardsmith2546]

Unknown to who 🤔 Gen Z lol

[@nomercyinc6783]

Another great that's shadowed by Jordans career smh
