How Good Was Dominique Wilkins REALLY?

[@jonnyarnett]

This guy was so ahead of his time. How do you think a prime Dominique would handle the modern NBA? NOTE: The first half of the script is from an older Dominique video, but the 2nd half is new, and he's now in the "How Good" series. Who would you like to see next?

[@lainiwakura4678]

Mark Price and Sidney Moncrief next... Nique would rank top 50 for sure, but not top 25-30 to me. Probably somewhere closer to 40.

[@lainiwakura4678]

Listen to some of Price's stats: Career 15/3/7 guy. Doesn't sound too impressive off hand. 47% FG, 40% 3 pt. FG, 90% FT. And averages were hurt from his last 3 years outside of Cleveland. Shot 49% from 3 in 88. 44% the next season in 89. 42% in 95, with 5 attempts per game, which was a lot back then, cuz of the short 3 pt. line that year. But as you can see the distance made no difference to him. In his prime he shot between 42-49% from 3. Imagine him in the modern era with more emphasis on the shot... Shot 95% from the foul line in back to back seasons (92 & 93). Criminally underrated player whose skill set would translate great to today's game.

But he launched a shot from 17 feet that clanged and PHILLY was able to (1) control the rebound (2) get a quick timeout with scant time remaining (3) inbound the ball and score resulting in a loss for Atlanta that was solely the responsibility of this selfish individual.

When we’re talking about the all-time greats of basketball, I sometimes get that feeling that people under appreciate Dominique Wilkins. Wilkins may be regraded as one of the best dunkers in NBA history but he was more than just an amazing dunker. He was a nine-time All-Star, a member of seven All-NBA teams and the NBA’s scoring champion in 1986. He also is one of only eight players in NBA history to average at least 25 points per game for 10 consecutive seasons (the others was Jerry West, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone Shaquille O’Neal, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, and Kevin Durant). .

[@ArchieJDChannel]

We had the chance to see human highlight film in Europe. He came to play for one year for my team Panathinaikos, winning a European championship in 96. Even though he was not like he was in the 80s and at the age of 35, he scored 32 in the semi-final and averaged more than 20 in the season. I still remember I was 10 and went with my brother to the first training of the team, where there were 10-12 thousands of crazy people. A few days before, when 'nique landed to the Athens airport more than 5 thousands of fans where there to welcome him

As a UK fan, I watched this guy for 3 years at UGa. He was amazing! I watched him in the NBA because all the Hawks games were televised thanks to cable and TBS. He was a monster and is easily one of the best 50 to ever play. He would thrash most of today's players.

An excellent jumping big man. 6’8” and a high riser. Also, had a serious motor: no one talks about this. Played every game and every time down the court (on offense) like it was his last. Was not a lock down defender as the Hawks didn’t play that kind of defense. Not many assists, not a lot of passing out of Dominique. These two things, the passing and the defense hurt his reputation as a player. He was seen as a gunner, a black hole, if you will. He was similar to Kobe in that way. I don’t see either player as selfish, they just both really believed in their abilities on the offensive end. Danny Ainge was right: he was and is Top 25. He was THAT good.
