Dominique Wilkins & Kevin Willis: Complimentary duo or co-existing stars? | Disregarded Duos by FPP

[@thomaswilson7418]

Kevin Willis is lowkey underrated

[@ForgottenPlayerProfiles]

His first stint with the Hawks is for sure underrated. He got very overshadowed by Nique though, but most would

[@MrOctober44]

Agreed

[@ethanniedorowski116]

​@Forgotten Player Profiles an spud but I totally agree. An ya I mean those boys were east coast showtime without the magic

[@Matic221]

Willis’ arms took up 320p outta that 380p tv. Massive big

[@christophertifre2018]

Willis had a very effective hook shot and was one of the strongest players in league😊

[@fidanasimpson5465]

The most abominable thing that the Hawks did was draft Jon Koncak.

[@J_Ru31352]

Hawks thought Koncak would be a franchise player to unseat Nique for the real one.

[@OnlyBuilt4FinancialContracts]

Facts. Koncak was a Bust Down Casio

[@Amick44]

Actually it was paying him like he was a top 10 star in the league. Pretty much every team makes drafting mistakes. They didn't have to give him that kind of money, though.

[@timhall5382]

Willis won a championship in 2003, should have been noted.

[@J_Ru31352]

Not a key player by that point of his career. Just fortunate enough being on that Spurs roster.

[@ethanniedorowski116]

He received one yes.. Won a chip idk about that.... maybe helped win maybe strong maybe

[@ianh6845]

He wasn't a big part of that team, but I remember being happy to see Willis get a ring.

[@terrellwashington3050]

That's true. Kevin Willis won a championship ring in 2003 with the San Antonio Spurs, never mind that he was a role player at that point. A ring is a ring, and basketball is a team sport. 🏀💯

[@lgsg2825]

He was injured I had to wiki this shit

[@MrMixItup]

Kevin Willis was a “good power forward” but not a great power forward. Meaning he wasn’t a franchise player and to my point, he wasn’t double teamed in the post. Again, a good player who seemed to be more of a teammate to Dominique than a co-star on those Hawks teams.

[@tj5180]

Nique didn’t have a co star with him. His 2nd best player was doc rivers who was decent but not a star and the hawks also got Moses Malone

[@alectapia1518]

They traded Wilkins for nothing!!!! 😮

[@Amick44]

Nique said his contract was up next year and Atlanta didn't wanna pay.

[@alectapia1518]

[@BrooklynBalla]

Willis was a good player.He was just a hustle big man that could score a little.He wasnt much of a shot blocker because he had an abnormally short wingspan.But its crazy how the guy played from 1984-2007 retiring at 44 yrs old.

[@powerbadpowerbad]

Retiring at 44 yrs old ??? DANG,I guess he didn't want to do anything else but playb-ball. LOL.

Willis was a beast but he had T-Rex arms

[@isiahbraun8704]

[@cdgates1]

The Hawks never got past the 2nd round until 2015 & 2021

[@timhall5382]

"Wasn't very good the rest of his career" is a bold statement from a nerd in his Nana's basement. Other than that I thought the video was good. The narrator is a child so he must have done tons of research for the video. It's mostly accurate and I appreciate that. Well done.

[@marvinwhittaker]

The Hawks should've been a championship contender in the 1993-94 season but the Hawks traded Dominique Wilkins to the Clippers for Danny Mannings.

[@ngarci8040]

Willis the first true 7ft PF in our modern day NBA…!

[@Amick44]

Yeah, before he would've been placed at C. Well, Tree Rollins was an elite shot blocker, so there was a spot for him.

[@evanjordan5075]

Looking at this video I'm not sure if they were a duo but both were talented players. I'll also say unlike Aguirre and Blackman, they never did make the conference finals.

[@jaredhancock1356]

Please cover Steve Kerr

[@simpson81323]

Kendall Gill should get a video

[@ForgottenPlayerProfiles]

I got a long list, but he's definitely on the list

[@MrOctober44]

Nice

​@@ForgottenPlayerProfilesdoes David Wesley make the cut?

[@ForgottenPlayerProfiles]

@cmsquare247 I had a long list to begin with and I'm adding everyone's suggestions to it, so sooner or later I'll get to who you want

[@simpson81323]

@@ForgottenPlayerProfiles hoping Kendall Gill has moved a bit further up the list ;)

[@MrOctober44]

Cool video. Liked the one on Aguirre and Blackman as well

[@richardkulpa7315]

Good channel. I think an overshadowed nba duo from 1980s would be San Antonio 's Mike the Stich Mitchell and Point Guard Johnny Moore. A little known but explosive tandem!

[@theblacklexluthor11]

Being a Georgia native. The hawks was my team when I started watching NBA ball but overbtime I shifted to Miami with Alonzo Mourning but still liked the hawks. Kevin Willis was indeed a good player I enjoyed watching him!

[@nuttysportsgamer4085]

this is a fun concept. great video. I'd like to throw Latrell Sprewell & Allan Houston into the suggestion list

[@dinewalton]

The should have put Willis at center and drafted Karl Malone

[@miguelalegria3614]

How Wilkins managed to be hall of famer without knowing how to dribble a basketball is staggering.

[@Amick44]

When you're athletic, tall, can shoot and have a few pet moves down .... Reggie Miller didn't have much of a handle, either.

Jackson Community College! It's just Jackson College now, but I'm from Jackson and my Dad took classes at JCC while Kevin Willis was there. My Dad say's he only said 'hi' in passing a few times but that was about it. You couldn't miss him because he was so big lol. I was always a fan of Kevin Willis because of that, but he was also a pretty good player too. Good stuff.

[@humbledragger6411]

Lebron first finals he averaged 22/7/7 on 36/22/69 shooting… so I have to state jordan stats in his first finals or we have an understanding?

Good suggestions! I can definitely see Thomas Jones in the future. I like the other players, but it's alot harder to find year specific highlights for defensive players, especially a nose tackle like Rogers

[@MrKwillis87]

My man!

Def not a duo in atl. Willis was a role player. Wilkins an above average star. Bird was giving him the biz
