Every Player Who SHOULD Have a Statue: Part 2

[@jonnyarnett]

If you were to pick the next player to get a statue outside of their arena, who would you pick?? NOTE: I imagine some people are gonna have arguments for the various statues that are technically “outside of NBA arenas”. If that’s the case (and you might be right), just know that this article is what I was basing the information on, and this comes from the NBA’s official website www.nba.com/news/nba-legends-with-statues-at-arenas

[@kam01096]

Spurs Tim Duncan I don’t believe he has one

[@kannon1610]

I would disagree on Vince Carter and especially Patrick Ewing, I think his level of playoff if not quite championship success for such a long stretch of the 90s warrants recognition from the Knicks.

[@baxterbrown8088]

I think Scottie Pippen should get one yesterday His style and level of play during the 6 rings was needed 😊

[@iansmith849]

I think Westbrook absolutely deserves a statue. He didn’t have any success as a #1 option but he did have a memorable MVP season and really embraced the city. I get he might’ve switched teams a lot but he still played 11 seasons there, which is actually longer than Iverson’s Sixers tension, who you had making the list.

I’ve gotta disagree with Draymond, if Curry and Klay get the statues then Draymond deserves it too

[@xoxo-l4j]

Dray deserves one as much as Klay, but Curry shouldn't be part of that argument. He obviously, individually, is in a different conversation and I assume he will be the only statue they get.

[@tanaelol]

if i had to choose i would give one to draymond over klay. both deserve it but giving klay one and not draymond is crazy to me

[@ItsMeStrider]

@@xoxo-l4j tbh they absolutely need a statue of the warriors dinastic "big 3", dray is always referred to as the "heart and soul" of the warriors and anchored their entire defense for over a decade, not giving him a statue is just as bad as not giving klay one, maybe even worse. And yeah Curry statue is a given at this point lol

[@radu_nedelcut]

I generally agree but if I have to nitpick, you said Unseld&Hayes shouldn't get a statue because those are not for one-time championships... but then you had one for Bill Walton who overall had less success with Portland than those two had with Washington. I think it's better to say none of them was the clear unquestioned "locomotive" of those Washington Finals teams... as opposed to Walton in Portland.

[@danielkopolovic7218]

Yeah, some inconsistent standards. Iverson = 1 final, Miller = 1 final, Walton = 1 final, 1 championship, Jokic = 1 final, 1 championship, Gianninis = 1 final, 1 championship. These are all "statue worthy" resumés, but Unseld takes his team to the finals 4 times and is mvp of their only championship, but misses the cut. Not to mention he spent his whole career with the franchise, was ROY and MVP in 1969, and was a multiple time all-star. I see an argument saying Hayes split his time with the rockets, but Unseld should be a lock.

[@xl8751]

@@danielkopolovic7218agreed. Personally I think there should be fewer statues in general. Like you gotta be mythic to have a statue so it makes sense guys like Jordan and chamberlain, bird, and Kobe have them. While winning you franchise’s first championship is historic and you had good years so far it feels like there should be more for the statue. But it’s up to the franchise to do whatever they want .

[@LelekPLN]

[@jasonnelson6624]

@@LelekPLN I can appreciate that Westbrook was there 12 years compared to kd's 9. It's just weird to me how Kd years were better and it was Westbrook who shot them out of the playoffs. Not to mention presti picked Westbrook over kd. I like Westbrook but he shouldn't have the green light or be the 1st option when Kd is in the team. Yet he was, I get why their fans would be upset. But honestly if your so called franchise player comes to you and says he wants Harden and ibaka over Westbrook, and Pesti keeps Westbrook. If your kd wouldn't you leave? You just got done watching curry kill Westbrook and you now his sidekick then you have the warriors begging you along with Jerry West telling you how easy you will score and how unselfish they are. Plus almost everyone knows kd can be sensitive and needs to feel wanted as we saw if he feels unwanted he leaves. But thanks for answering I can see your point I still think kd's 9 was better than Westbrook 11 but I can also understand how it felt like he stayed when kd left.

[@jasonnelson6624]

@@LelekPLN Kd's career is weird of course OKC fans dislike or even hate him. Which obviously a person understand reguardless of how he left. He sacraficed his legacy but saved the warriors. They begged him to join he took less money so they could resign Iggy and Livingston and he offered to give back more in case Iggy didnt resign they could then get Rudy Gay. Then Draymond calls him a bitch and says they don't want or need him he should go. The warriors fans enjoyed winning but they hate him. It just funny and odd to me he has all the skill and talent you could want he doesnt have any issues off the court in fact he spends almost all his time playing basketball. I really thought nba fans would have wanted him on their team and valued his game more then they do. Especially the warriors fans that blew my mind his legendary took a huge hit by going their and he brings 2 titles when bob Myers said without kd they couldn't beat the Cavs even if everyone was healthy. But the hate kd too mostly the Steph fans as they think he hurt stephs legacy. I don't know like I said his career is just didnt go as I thought it would have.

[@alex4833]

Great video, Jonny! Like FlymoufDiction, I'm surprised to hear that the Pistons do not have a statue of Isiah Thomas. I absolutely agree that there should be a statue of him. He definitely was integral to their success and their dynasty (while also being one of the greatest point guards of all time). I also strongly agree with having Tim Duncan and David Robinson statues also. It also surprises me to hear that there are no statues of either of them, given how they both were amazing players who were integral to San Antonio's success (I know Robinson was beyond his prime in 2003, but he is still one of the best who has ever played and was integral to their 1999 run). I really hope they both get statues. I second your pick for having a statue of Reggie. He was a great player and, as you indicated, loyal to Indiana. I was a fan of his while growing up and I remember how great he was. I was sad that he never got a ring, but yes, like you, I see him as one of the few exceptions for those who don't have a ring but deserve a statue. I don't think I really have any disagreements with your list. Originally, I thought that Unseld should have a statue, but you make a great point about how he only has one title. So, while I wouldn't be unhappy if Washington had a statue of him, I also see a solid case against having a statue for him. Great video again, Jonny. Have a great evening :).

Also think Nash absolutely deserves a statue. He changed the game and put the Suns on the map. Yeah they didn't win a title but they were so close in 07 and the victims of a stupid zero-tolerance rule with Stoudemire and Diaw getting suspended for stepping off the bench.

If all you seen of the warriors dynasty was from youtube clips, sportcenter highlights and talking head shows, you will never understand how important Draymond is to the Warriors franchise.

He always had everyone in the right defensive positition. I'd go to games and you could hear him predicting and calling out the other team's offense. He could also guard 1 through 5.

While he hadn't accomplished much there his career is define by his time with the team, and he was vital to the overall gritty and energetic nature of the team's culture and Identity. Also he is a very popular figure in Memphis and has done much for the community outside of the court.

Only players who led their teams to at least one championship deserve their statue.

Trying to convince san antonio fans to get a Spurs statue of Kawhi would be like trying to get peace in the middle east lol

I see Klay Thompson throwing a tantrum once he sees Curry has his own Statue
