Real Ones Remember How INSANELY GOOD John Wall Was In 2016-17 🧙‍♂️ GOAT SZN

[@schuylersavage276]

One of the best all around guards of all time at his peak. 50 point games, 20 assist games, triple doubles, 10-15 double doubles in a row, 13 straight games over 11+ assists, back to back triple doubles, 9 steal games, 5 block games, two facials over 7 footers in the same half( first round 2018 game 3. Epic) come from behind series saving game winning 3s, taking over entire quarters, taking over 4th qtrs. He did it all. Even to those who said he “can’t shoot” just look at these game highlights. How many times did we note he made 5-10 jumpers in a game? A dozen? And this is just one season. Dude was an inconsistent jump shooter, but like all superstars, when he was hot, he was insanely accurate as a shooter. Without all of the knee injuries and the bone spurs he could have ended his career as a top 10 point guard ever. I’d argue that even if he not got any better than 2016/17, if he just maintained that level of play through his early 30s, he would easily be a hall of famer. As it is I think he deserves a better look than some might say. The basketball hall of fame includes international play AS WELL as college and high school. I feel like it would be unfair to the history of basketball to not enshrine the guy who basically made mixtapes what they are today, as well as being the face of the 10+ year Calipadi Kentucky one and done phenomenon, being one of the most famous college bball players ever, even more popular than many nba all stars at the time having his own dance that was permeating all the way through the mainstream media and to movie stars and college girls and little kids. That doesn’t even include all of the things he did in the NBA. Most assists in his first 9 games. 3rd fastest to 10k and 5k dimes. Wizards all time leader in assists and steals. Led wizards to 3 best seasons since 79. Broke Jordan’s record of consecutive 20 point 7 assist playoff games. Only player in NBa history with career averages of at least 18 points 8 assists 1.5 steals and 0.5 blocks( 18.7 8.9 1.7 and 0.7) and only player in playoff history with his averages, 21.8 9.8 assists 1.7 steals and 1.1 BLOCKs. Across 37 playoff games through age 27!! He’s ALSO the All time leader in blocked shots for all point guards ever. He played 600 games, #2 that he passed played 1300. He played about half as many games as the rest of the top 10. He also did things in the playoffs we haven’t seen before. Only player ever to average at least 27 points and 10 assists across more than 7 games. He did it for 13! He had a 42 point 8 assist road closeout game in Atlanta . Only Jordan and LeBron had done that prior to Wall. Had back to back playoff games over 27 points 14 assists 6 rebounds and 4 steals . Only player ever. Also had the first playoff game ever of at least 40 points 13 assists 3 blocks and 3 steals. Dude is a legend.

His ability to dunk with either hand was something different.

[@drstone2358]

Which hand is his dominant hand, because I can’t tell. He dunking on people with his left then shoot with his right

I havent seen one dunk with his right hand 😅

[@Kin-my5fb]

@@jumi48 after I made that comment I continued to watch for a right handed dunk and didn’t see it. I promise I’ve seen him dunk with the right before 😂

[@jumi48]

@@Kin-my5fb😂😂... He for sure has dunks with his right but its very rare

[@nocturne311]

The ECSF series between Boston and Washington that season was one of my favorite playoff series since 2010. IT4 and John Wall going at it was fun to watch. In game two, they combined for 93 points (Thomas - 53, Wall - 40) and each shot 50% or greater. Wall also had 13 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks. Boston won 129-119. Awesome performances.

[@Bdonlee15]

Probably my favorite player of all time . Appreciate the heart he gave DC

[@JuanHenny]

His full speed full court behind the back poster against the hawks in the first rd of the eastern conference playoffs is one of the best plays I’ve ever seen. Top 5 for sure

[@JJ_5289]

His speed coast to coast and quickness was amazing. One of the all time greatest athetes to ever play in my opinion

[@6aliph77]

You took my suggestion 😊😊😊 i appreciate it man

[@HandsomeBoyGarion]

I miss the old nba when everyone was in there prime

[@smasheskeyboardindarkhumor2600]

He finally made a John wall video he was such a underrated guard 🔥🔥🔥

[@Preston1988]

His jump shot reminds me of my brother who passed away in 2012 man I miss him so much🙏

[@GoulaLegamer]

[@SJE2402]

Long Live your brother. United by 🏀

[@Preston1988]

Appreciate yall man hope everyone had a great thanksgiving & enjoying your weekend much luv

[@집나간레이디와톰보이]

16-17 wizard and John Wall is absolutely 🐐 👍👍 Also, Marcin Gortat and Wall pick and roll so impressive!!

[@sauce2kgod193]

I remember being at the game washington vs okc and it so much fun and surprise to see that westbrook didn’t play the rest of the game after halftime. ps. i was sitting behind the visiting team bench so it was a shocker seeing that

[@KidBakz]

Fortunate to see him at his prime. I remember him and DRose both being the best point guards at one point

[@teddyp421]

Maaaaaan YOU READ MY MIND! You always come through 🙏🏾

[@edwardkimakaballislifekim_578]

[@QXzy9]

MY FAVORITE PLAYER OF ALL TIME, THANKS MAXI

[@5-y4w]

He and Westbrook both my fav pg

[@matthewgabbana5021]

This is who Ja Morant plays like to me, I don’t see Derrick Rose. I don’t know why people keep saying he’s the new Derrick Rose

[@daelin9759]

Bro is leaving no stone unturned 😭

[@6aliph77]

So special I wonder how good he could have been had he not got injured

[@Iovsu]

[@iamuchihabetts]

Bruh was sooo raw he even got a song about him

[@PATMMINC]

Thank you for this video

[@just-a-guy9857]

Ahh yes the year John wall was regarded by many as the second best player in the entire conference

[@simangcaLangTo]

request carlos boozer 2007-2008 or deron williams 2009-2010

[@JahHoopz]

His middy was money that season! Sheesh! Wall was definitely the best PG in the east, and the best two-way PG in the whole league.

[@abtocool6350]

This isn’t a bad take but he had some competition. You had IT who was 5th in mvp votes averaging 29 a game and then you had kyrie who was averaging a very efficient 25 next to lebron and then you even have someone like Kemba but I don’t think he was as good as the other names I listed. The convo would be between wall, kyrie, and IT in the eastern conference.

[@tleducmarcil]

Wall vs it was special

[@XxI8D]

Fr pennywise got lucky that series

[@Junior-ns2kn]

This was Ja before Ja

[@matthewgabbana5021]

Bro was Ja Morant before Ja Morant

[@matthewgabbana5021]

This just who Ja Morant plays like to me, he’s a modern day Wall

[@Ihaveto01]

Neither of them r great shooters as well so this comparison is valid.

Imagine playing HS ball and coming up against John Wall at 6'3(Probably 6'1-2) in 2009(5th year senior) and thinking you had a chance to win.

He spent an extra year in high school ?

Good old days when nba was at his peak… when every team was able to compete for championship and it wasn’t just like now when every team just spams 3s and there was midrange game and all that🙏🥲❤️ And I think John wall is the last pg that was really good on offense plus defense plus a good passer with Russ but I think John wall has a better offensive package then Russ

[@MJDavis20]

Yall just be saying anything. There's way more parity now compared to back then. We've had a different champion since 2019. This was when everyone knew it was gonna be golden state vs Cleveland every year in the finals.

[@tleducmarcil]

Before kd join gsw it was all about chemistry and not about just putting the best players all in one team
