[@andresjaime1652]

Germany's Obst deserves a mention IMHO

[@aucdellko3421]

How is his career saved when it was never in trouble

[@drmontano9414]

Deuschland 🏆

[@stefanbomert6523]

May be some of them are not in the NBA the same reason Andy Obst mentioned? He prefers to stay in his current team

[@Per08s]

No he doesn't, he already had a good career

[@ayejackson884]

Because of you I feel like Olympics and Fiba means something now ,because I’m learning all these other players and play styles

[@frederickdelius1106]

Dude no joke. So glad i found this dudes channel.

[@polmas14]

Fantastic video! My time in Manila was truly unforgettable. Oh, and that's my clip at 3:55

[@leothelion2001]

I'm so glad to see Bruno caboclo doing well , he didn't quite shine here in the USA because he wasn't ever given much time needed on the court , being away from the NBA was the best move ever

[@EuroHeroes]

There's actually an interesting case going on about Caboclo. He signed to play with Venezia in Italy for the upcoming season but didn't go to the club after the world cup and announced that he doesn't want to play for them. The rumour was that he wanted to sign with a club that'll play some games against NBA sides and seems likely that Caboclo wants to get another crack at the NBA.

[@SwiggitySwooty1]

Put some respect on Aleksa Avramović’s name!!!

[@chariza13]

YEAH I knew aleksa on this FIBA and i liked him.

[@jdmkIII]

As what KD Said when they went against France last year "This guys plays different when playing for their country".

[@Marco-uh5zn]

No surprise, because NBA rules and NBA regular season are trash.

[@MontyESA]

You missed out on Andy Obst.

[@stesta77]

Zagar sent on loan to ACB league so he cannot learn from Calathes in Fener. Plus the fact Calathes is already gone from Barcelona and doesn't matter about Jokubraitis PG spot.

[@FupaDoncic]

So you telling me a 5’10 dude averaged more rebounds than the US starting center

[@0401412740]

NBA isn't a world championship. FIBA is world championship

[@user-ei5ql4pc5s]

Mad I was watching hollis jefferson in puerto rico super nacional and he was giving me kobe vibes then too. I knew he was gonna kill it in the world cup. Tremont waters is crazy too. Also a guy named nate mason jr. I have no idea how he is not a starting pg in the nba

[@mrnooko-or8dz]

bcs this nba shi is all for entertainment

[@BlastBeatFC]

FIBA was so good this year! Lot's of fun watching the games

[@juliusbalansag9310]

i agree with you

[@BBallRambling]

This was a great video DKM. The World Cup was so much fun to watch this year.

[@raymondmauricejacques317]

When i 1st saw jefferson playing for the nets i said wait a minute ,look he moves like kobe and my friends like nahh it aint like kobe his just an average player .i said yeah but if you make him bald he looks like kobe 😅 and they all laughed at me thinking im silly ,but now look i am right ! The internet did agree with me now 😂

[@rickymachica609]

Sometimes it's not the player's fault why they are out of the NBA. It's the coaching staff. Players' skill set means nothing if the coach will not give them the playing time.

[@donigilobor7721]

Good analysis. Thank you! ❤️ from 🇵🇭😊

[@xEvilAliv3x]

@15:59 With Calathes leaving Barcelona? he already been playing for Fenerbaçe for a full season and Jokubaitis, at least for now, is probably the 3rd Guard on Barcelona rotation behind Laprovittola and Satoransky

[@Benrod800]

Knicks , please give this man a chance This could be a team blessing to go to the Finals you never know up you do it.

[@manelgayetpena8534]

You should talk about Juan Nunez, he was the perfect replacement for Ricky Rubio

[@mprado1405]

Its so inspiring you can make such videos and enertain despite having autism. True inspiration.

[@DKM_Sports]

?

[@efraingonzalezrondon899]

Jefferson has been playing like this in Puerto Rico's BSN league, we already knew how good he is.

[@Padsek_Boy12]

I hope Gregg popovich will watch this video...he likes euro players.

[@ajin.818]

0:55 i watched this game at the arena and the energy was insane

[@GarrettOldham-up3mj]

That was a fukn awesome and informative stash of upr case KNOWLEDGE that u properly laid out. New2thischanl that was a no-no. Thanx4 video

[@drmontano9414]

your voice is like COME ON ENGLAND!!! mic swallow😂

[@callsins3413]

in nba u need connection, agent to get in and play time

[@guilhermemendonca4619]

Excelent video Bro

[@jumbokevin]

Carlik Jones cant defend NBA players bro

[@susanbabikha8930]

Nah ah the final world cup didn't save their careers, they were good enough... tragedy their coaches weren't gifted enough to take notice

[@tutotutot5193]

American NBA coaches dont choose players based just on merit, they also want marketability.....that is why mediocre players and plays are always hyped up when they are american citizens. CAPITALIASM sees dollars only.

[@karlzzzyzz]

this shit crazy def one of the most interesting event

[@marks4553]

Europes favorite sport is Football, they are now catching up on Basketball

[@joselitofilipino9618]

Wdym they are now catching up? They’ve been balling for a long time, alongside playing football of course. Europeans have had long and great history in basketball. Countries from the now defunct countries of Yugoslavia and USSR are basketball powerhouses in Europe, as well as countries like Greece, Turkey, Spain and a bunch more.

[@demonofpurgatory5188]

Basketball is 2 in europe an 2 in america thats not catch up at all its =

[@jimmynotnice9190]

This was one of the most hyped fiba tourneys in recent time

[@metaphysicsandhoops6448]

Great video

[@tylercruse2402]

Unfortunately I doubt Utah Jazz fans watch this channel. This is my first time viewing. Excellent takes, all these dudes could be on an NBA roster

[@TheCriminalViolin]

Blazers fan, Oregonian, but never heard of Emin, however I will tell you that the FG% of Fontecchio is very deceptive. That guy in the clutch for Utah, especially late in the season was almost inhuman. A absolute flamethrower, guaranteed bucket, didn't matter who or what you threw at him. I knew there was a reason I remembered that name and knew it well - that was why. He had me hyped as a Blazers fan haha. And also, Rondae was a guy we originally drafted, but traded to Brooklyn, which I was rather sad about. But I knew that he had this in his game, but no teams ever saw it because they never gave him or it the chance to grow and shine. The main Duck player I think of though is Arselan Kezemi. I really wish Detroit gave him a better shot and trust.

[@woodyharrelson2624]

If Michael Pietrus and Kobe had a baby

[@jedreviewstvs8276]

Philippines had a verry talented playerd but they did not manage so well there capability, the reason why? The caoching thiere system worst of the worst rotation of the ball.

[@RickueEvans-oi1iz]

It would never be another Kobe let's get that out of the way first let the man rest in peace and his family

[@Jclavs1998]

I love how he pronunce assist

[@WWE2KUNIVERSEELITE]

Rondae boggles my mind that he was playing in the PBA ( trash filipino league ) when he still had talents to play in the NBA.

[@Bravox84]

Obst?

[@AM-dl7ot]

Rokas Jokubaitis definitely should be in the NBA.

[@nxmaine]

Tremont been doing that all his life trust us at home are proud of him always

[@zebracorn4281]

Bruno Caboclo was 4 years away from being 4 years away, now we can see what that means

[@Dr.StephOgi-yx5bs]

Jordan stole my heart during the world cup.

[@freshjw]

One of your best videos. Respect

[@drjonathancarlos]

He’s back

[@frostyflakkes2692]

It’s so wild that fkn Rondae Hollis Jefferson has been a popular off-season topic. 😂

[@GeriatricHippo]

It will die off. I don't think he gets another shot in the NBA. If you are not good enough at everything to be a solid starter you need to be really good at one thing to be a role player. He is well rounded but not good enough overall to be a starter and he doesn't have that one stand out thing that will make him a good role player. NBA teams will rather take the one trick pony role players or a young risk v reward guys over him.

[@frederickdelius1106]

Jones deserves to have got one more assist. So his name could hold that record after the way he played this year.

[@mihailopavlovic2027]

Zagars is getting sent on a loan by Fenerbahce unfortunately, I was hoping he signs with my Partizan and that he learns from Željko Obradivić, and since we need kind od that traditional PG, he would be an amazing fit

[@zyrushermoso6629]

I think Bruno had grown.

[@Russimme]

SIMONEFONTECCHIO!!!

[@sportseditz_]

Nikos Rogavopoulos from Greece should be there

[@demetriosarcolakis4821]

The EuroLeague teams lack in phissicality, compared to the NBA teams. They couldn't stand in a min 80-90 games a year. EuroLeague is awesome, though and IMI more enjoyable to see than the NBA.

[@HighWoody]

Timberwolves should have gave him a chance when he was putting up numbers.

[@frederickdelius1106]

Wasnt KAT playing during the world cup? Dude sisnt do anything while there huh. Its like he went then realized he would be better off just hanging out in the back ha.

[@chaoyahan1834]

lol Waters signed a contract with a Chinese team already

[@AMACHiiBiong]

No one from the Philippines on this list. Sad & disappointing Gilas, plagued by politics ☹️

[@jemytv406]

Magtataka ka pa ba

[@johnwind7601]

Zagars is on his own in the assist record with 17, Kukoc is second with 15

[@EuroHeroes]

Kukoc and Carlik Jones are second. Jones also gave 15 AST in one of the games this year.

[@johnmaynardkeyneshonoridez1982]

Dwight ramos and rhenz abando of philippines

[@eastsidejohnnywalker8687]

the kobe of Jordan

[@adamgold6806]

jovic is not a center he plays shooting guard

[@syreal19]

Obst(Germany), Jokubaitis(Lithuania), Avramovic(Serbia) and Zagars(Latvia) must be recognize

[@johntyronemanuel9464]

Renz abando from gilas pilipinas!

[@cyclingboy788]

Jovic is not a 5.

[@davidhiramreyes6490]

Crazy to me how different he looks just going bald

[@vivienneasuncion686]

From the Philippines Dwight Ramos

[@RealPh_TransportEdits]

Rhenz Abando left the chat

[@chi-town6305]

Another banger ❤

[@faserasss1660]

Yago from Brazil

[@ogvamp]

Nicola Jovovich

[@ajglafamiliaproductions5495]

Real hoopers knew it waz rondae hollirson from the start

[@VandamLei]

Ahh yes FIBA WORLD CUP, where the real World Championship 🏆 is.

[@vincebautista4849]

Cause NBA cares about offense more than defense. Simple as that positionless basketball is BS. Go back to the traditional where every role shines, not fucking shooting 3s and dying in it, Post moves and middies are a lost art, ya know its getting bad when FIBA has more better players than NBA.

[@cyber1421]

Tremont Waters 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷

[@Coopercrack]

Tbh all these ppl was as good b4. Just didn’t give them the opportunity or just had bad luck. Is not like they develop to a star level suddenly. We can see it in players like Ricky Rubio. In the NBA he doesn’t have the spotlight, i’m FIBA se was the MVP.

[@kevinsavagebasketball14]

I got a autograph from Carlik he’s cool

[@tonyelias1237]

Wael arakji the Lebanese asia MVP deserves to be mentioned

[@bookaufman9643]

You're trying to praise Waters but you're not doing him any favors when you say that he shot 41% from the field. That's a pretty bad shooting percentage and his 3-point percentage was just average. The dude needs a better agent than you. Lol

[@berdman4361]

Renz Abando

[@edigrissini9076]

u sound so much like spud from trainspootting

[@davidddddt87777]

November 23 y rhjefferson continues in overseas,i dont know if you are from eeuu but you dont understand fiba basketball,im from spain and saw rhj while playing in nba and Europe y the guy is not good enough for playing in nba or euroleague,a tournament with a farmers team like jordania where only he can shooting and social media overrated his performance only a role player in a farmers national team,i think other players in overseas can play in nba not rhj : jokubaitis,zagars,obst,maodo lo,juan nuñez,avramovic,walkup,

[@carloscurcino]

Yago dos Santos

[@benjamint5622]

Isaac bonga

[@123kid73]

He looks like James harden if he shaved bald

[@conracewhatever5224]

Stop comparing! Sheese

[@kugita6638]

where's abando?

[@rami90177]

Bro just ignored Wael Arakji

[@vincentdolido5437]

And still... NBA champs still think they are world champs. Hahaha

[@frederickdelius1106]

So glad he didnt mention fucking taco bell. Thank you. Maybe this will be the start of them moving on from that stupid "fun fact".

[@NELLYMUNROJR]

Wait how is carlik jones south sudanese lol

[@EuroHeroes]

That's an usual practice in international basketball to give good players passports and in some cases money to have them represent them at the international stage.

[@robertotampioc7318]

⁠@@EuroHeroesbut South Sudan doesn’t have money to pay him, unless Loul Deng did something tricks to convince Carlik Jones

[@SuperRonnel89]
