For the record Mikan wanted the three point shot because it “will give smaller players a chance to score and open up the defense” he specifically wanted more people to have a role / opportunity in basketball so he made a rule that let people with skill sets other than his own carve out a niche. I just think that’s really cool

George Mikan was also the reason for the shot clock's existance. Teams could and sometimes would stall when they were going against him (not to mention his teams ran very, very slow themselves). So someone suggested the shot clock as a way to force a shot. How they got 24 seconds was dividing the game length by the number of shots they hoped would exist during a game.

Bro, the magic didn't lose that series because of Nick. Stop it. The Rockets were a much more experienced team, with an all time great big of their own.

You might be too young to know this but Taco Bell held an actual PPV event putting Hakeem against Shaq in a one-on-one game. The Dream owned not only Shaq but David Robinson, Glenn Robinson, well let’s be honest here mostly all the Big Men in the league at that time. It took MJ retiring for that season and a half and the Bulls losing to Orlando in that second season for Hakeem to get his 2 rings he actually deserved and don’t forget he had the second best shooting guard in Clyde as his ultimate support as well. Barkley came to the team the season after the second Finals win. Then Pippen came after The Bulls second three peat and MJ’s second retirement. So yeah, you probably too young to get that part of it.

Add to the Heat drafting Wade, Michael Jordan longtime trainer Tim Grover received a call from Pat Riley, asking what he thought on D Wade and his intention to draft Chris Kaman. Tim Grover advised to draft D Wade, while Pat Riley argued that they need big man for their team. Which then Tim told Pat to play Wade at center. Those 2 are one of the greatest at what they are doing, and combined both knowledge give them one of the top SG of all time.

Perhaps if instead of Bam and Dragic getting injured before the finals it had been AD or LeBron they could have actually won it, you never really know. They were looking pretty darn good before Butler tweaked his ankle this year too. I donno how he keeps doing these revamps with no draft picks or cap space lol

This sounds like something Secret Base would do a 3 part series on titled: *"The one time a role player forgot to sign his contract and changed basketball forever"*

What a cool and fun video. I get a strong Vsauce vibe from Jxmy, the way his theme is developed, presented and climaxes, and that's a compliment of the highest order.

Jimmy,...thank you. Thank you for these videos. Every time I watch your videos im in love with your craft of storytelling. I don't even watch because of basketball at this point. I watch for all the knowledge that you have and only then do I love the game

Dude wtf LaVert has ALWAYS been a beast. Injuries had derailed his early career but when he was the court he was ballin. Remember he also had a horrific nearly career ending injury while having a career year and we're all glad to see him bounce back strong! Come on man Dude was a fantasy regular in our league for years

Anyone else do the “Mikan Drill” in HS? Just layups pivoting from right to left hand lay up over and over.
@dozhadeville4443 жыл бұрын
Man for years! It actually trained our muscles to make layups easily, it was so locked in I still did it afterwards when I practiced solo lol

@@dozhadeville444 I still do that drill every game/open gym as one of my warm ups. You hate to see people miss put-back layups. This drill really helps.
