Rashad McCants is one of the more vocal people in Gil's Arena. He has outrageous takes and interesting thoughts, but how good was his own NBA career?

I think he did have some talent but listening to him talk you would think this guy was on mj level or something. Yes he played in the NBA which there are not alot of people who can say they did that. However he speak about others who accomplished far more than he did as if he knows more or could do better. Personally I like Brandon Jennings more as a player and commentator. He is more realistic and was a better player despite not having the "A type" personality. He just let his game do the talking and competed at a higher level despite being smaller.

@1:34 - either right before or right after revealing his list, Mccants gives an explanation for why Magic isn't on his list: he was under the impression that hybrid PGs (players listed at multiple positions throughout their career) were not eligible for the list. Magic was listed as SG for the first 4ish years of his career while Norm was listed as the PG. By not mentioning this, either you are willfully leaving out crucial info or did not diligently research the info. Not sure which is worse tbh. It made me click off of this video right after since misinformation about something I know taints all following info on things since I'll have the question of whether the presented info is actually the whole truth or a partial truth.

McCants was a beast. From high school to the NBA he was an elite talent. If you watch Gils arena you can clearly see why his NBA career didnt pan out. It has nothing to do with talent its his mentality and inability to fit into the team concept. He had the same issues at UNC. Its always been a mental thing with Rashad. Everything is a slight, everybody else is always wrong, and McCants embraces being the odd man out. But no NBA team is going to pay a player who goes about life like that.

Rashad was an average NBA player. He was a useful rotation piece. Which means that objectively he's a _great_ player, but for him to claim he was the best player on Gil's Arena -- sitting next to Gilbert Arenas, who would have been a hall of famer if not for injury, and Brandon Jennings who would have been an all-star if not for injury -- was pretty over the top. And he completely ignored Gilbert's logic, which was sound: If Gil started off way below Rashad but reached his level in college then surpassed him as a pro, doesn't that mean Gilbert is better? He basically implied it was because he outworked him and honestly that's probably true.

If you listen to him, talk on the show, you will see why he only lasted less than five years in the NBA. He constantly talks about how he was the man in high school in college so he didn’t have to work as hard as everybody else. That attitude doesn’t translate well into the NBA era, he played in. He blames agents, the Kardashians, NBA coaches and his coach at NC for him being blackballed. Zero accountability for anything. He also stated out of his own mouth that he did whatever his teammates did because he wanted to belong. Was he an NBA failure? Not necessarily, but he definitely wasn’t who he thinks he is. All of these things in totality is why he was so easily forgettable when he was in the league.

Lifelong Timberwolves fan here. I would describe McCants as the most forgettable draft pick during the Wolves most forgettable stretch. Zero impact. There was absolutely no buzz about him coming here despite his notoriety at North Carolina. My most vivid memory of him was at a game at Target Center when McCants had been relegated to coming off the bench. He was part of a newly minted 5 man substitution unit dubbed the “Zoo Crew”. It had a little success for 2 or 3 games but in this game the “Zoo Crew” had been awful and the coach called a timeout to sub them all out. Target Center was deathly quiet and a guy bellowed out from the second deck for all to hear, “Zoo crew you suck!” The whole crowd laughed heartily. Literally my only memory of his time here.

Plus he played for Minnesota Timberwolves which is a small market team, and not known for winning outside of KG. McCants explained why Magic Johnson wasn’t on his list of point guards being he listed pg’s being their primary/ only position. I need the video creator to list his athletic accomplishments.

I actually came across him the same way you did by Gil’s show. And all I kept thinking was who is this arrogant fool with a tiara on his head. When I found out it was Rashad I had completely forgot about him!! I mean on one end he played for UNC and made the NBA which in itself is a monumental accomplishment. But hearing his takes, you would think he was like Kobe or something and on that end it’s like pump the brakes there bro you were no where near the elite level of the players you shit on with your podcasts takes. And that’s what bothers me about him on the show. Dude still has an ego and over inflates his career as if no one can pull receipts. Like the other day on the show he was completely disrespecting Pat Bev, who you can argue has had a way better career the Rashad. His ego is way too much.

Rashad McCants was a scoring machine during his three years at Chapel Hill. As a freshman, McCants lead the Tar Heels in scoring with 17.5 points per game. McCants was an All-American all three years at UNC, and was a crucial part of their 2005 National Championship team… The Timberwolves selected McCants with the 14th-overall pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, but received very little return on their investment. During his four seasons with the T-Wolves, McCants started just 38 games and often feuded with teammates and coaches. After one more miserable season with the Sacramento Kings, McCants was out of the NBA by 2009. Since then, McCants has played in pro leagues in Puerto Rico, Philippines, China, Brazil, Lebanon, Venezuela, and Dominican Republic. At least we know his passport has a lot of stamps

Any person that makes the NBA, NFL, MLB, etc. has to believe they are the best person to ever play their position. They may not share that with anyone because it can be perceived as delusional/arrogance, but as a former athlete, we all felt that way inside. McCants was on be front cover of Sports Illustrated in college for a reason. He was drafted 14 overall as you mentioned so there’s no reason to not feel he was the best player on the court. There are many reasons a career is cut short but you can’t question him thinking he was always the best player on the court.

He was a good player no matter what way you want to slice it. Saying he had a failed career because of his play is honestly letting him off easy. He has long history of being hard to deal with, which is why his career was cut shorter than it should have been. Putting in a good effort and just not being good enough is much easier pill to swallow. It happens... but having proof you were good enough to play at the next level and messing it up because of character flaws must sting.

So yes if you are the best in ur respected league you’re average in the next.

@@WorldConflictsTV Wow...unbelievable smh lol not surprised to hear that at all the way he talks foolishness on the podcast. Not sure if you saw the episode of him bashing his teammates at NC when they won the chip, but he making excuses about Sean May being the final 4 MVP, should have been him, instead and that his teammates were "haters," etc...who talks like this after winning a championship and he was like one of the better players on that team?? 🤷🏽‍♂️ Everyone contributed and played a role in their success. I'm old enough to remember that squad and Sean May was a beast!

At 6-4 didn't have point guard skills wasn't big enough for either forward spots and didn't have the foot speed to play the 2 guard ,played well in big 3 which is only a half court game. Gilbert was a far better pro

He had talent.To go 14th in the first roung draft was impressive.Attitude is everything.If his attitude matched his athletic ability i think he could've been a better NBA player. As i look at his playing days at UNC there was issues there.He hurt the UNC program due to his dislike for Roy Williams.Seems if something went wrong it was time to point the finger Rashad thank you for helping the Tarheels win the 2005 NCAA CHampionship.Yor all layed it to Michigan State. Wish you well.Go forward my friend.

The fact that he wears a crown on his head as if he’s one of the NBA greats speaks volumes about his character and how he isn’t even a good podcast co-host to me because he’s ALWAYS talking over everybody AND thinks he is ALWAYS right AND thinks that he was the greatest thing to enter the NBA since MJ. He thinks that he was better than everybody. Think I’m 🧢 cappin? Watch the story that Patrick Beverley tells about them working out together and you’ll see EXACTLY what I’m talking about

I’m ngl , yall can be mad @ the vid all yall want but the way he talks on Gil’s arena by his OWN standards he is a failure.. all talk , not enough discipline & it shows. By a quick brief nba career. His argument with Pat Beverly is what brought me here. Pat bev may not be the best stat player but he’s lasted awhile in the NBA based off effort alone & the way mcants tried to downplay his heart. While having this poor nba career he deserves no love (not to mention the horrible takes) idk why yall caping for him in the comments

The Best team he was ever a part of was the T'wolves, and they were never a standout or league leading team...they were always sub par and never had any seasons to look back on because they never accomplished anything or had any established dominance...he was a regular rotation player on a below average team...watching how angry he gets during responses is pure comedy...lmaoo he barely made it out of college..and im saying that athletically and educationally...he got by on hype during his college days... and then he never panned out to be anything great in the NBA...he ultimately became a regular mediocre role player that complained too much...basically another "JOE SMITH"... And then he got himself booted from the league after crying and begging, and lying on his team mates for playing time...which led to him being another player in the world of obscurity.. he was lucky to even have a chance...with all his ego and cockiness compared to his overall lack of skill..its crazy to see anyone get that far without any proof of their game and skills...he snuck into the league and they immediatley sent him packing 😅😅😂..couldnt even make the g league..so he went to china...and then the big 3 where he also failed...😅
