    Im tired of hearing this, the dunk contest was not ruined with lebron not doing it. Kobe did it once his rookie and never did it again. Go back and watch it, it wasnt even a good dunk contest. Jordan did it multiple times. Kobe did not even start his first 2 years so please dont act like this is some ritual for the goats, only 2 faces of the league participated in it in the modern era

    Kobe most definitely played at a time where competition was insane and there was so much talent in the league. A lot of these guys played against good talent but some paths were definitely easier than others. Kobe played through some injuries too which was crazy. I’ll never forget when he had one of the trainers put his finger back in place and went back in and dominated. 😂 Greatness! Great video bro! 🙂❤️

    There is no attempt at actual voting. Everybody gets 50. When you raise the hype artificially by raising scores, you get viewer fatigue. Like player cards in fifa where everyone must be 90+ nowadays. Like all things NBA, the show takes precedence over the sport, and people are tired of the show.

  • @BigJoeEnergy
    @BigJoeEnergy 6 дней назад

    I truly believe we have not seen everything the dunk contest could have to offer. I really think that players are just lacking creativity and new ideas. There were some greats dunks by players last year but we have not seen anyone truly push the envelope as you mentioned. Think outside the box a little bit and add some flare as well. I do think adding the 1v1 tournament would help viewership of the All Star Weekend and that would really pose a “Who is the best of the best” with the players. Also, we need to bring back east vs west and stop drafting players. East vs West was more competitive and there needs to be defense and more incentive to play hard. It used to be in the pride of players to make a stand as to whose conference was better. Amazing video bro!

    Game is geared towards offense today. You think about playing defense and you get called for a foul. There's no way you can compare this wide open lane and 3 point contest era to any era where they actually played defense.

    I have a top 5 rather than anything else for this exact reason. Magic. Mj Bird Duncan Hakeem Dnt get it twisted, i got love for kobe, shaq, wilt, kareem, lebron, cooper, mchale, kg, pippen and plenty of others but they dnt make my top 5. I think they all have great skill sets but imo my top 5 would work great as a 5 aswel as individuals who cam take a game by the neck when needed

    • @tophersthoughts
      @tophersthoughts 12 дней назад

      thats an honestly really solid top 5. at the end of the day we all value different things and some of these players are so close in talent that it really came down to how their careers unfolded and the teams they had. hakeem might be the most underrated player of all time tbh i appreciate the comment fam! hope ur having a great Christmas & happy holidays! :)

    No ball knowledge, average height of nba players in 60s was 6 5, modern day is 6 6. Teams had 7 foot centers and multiple 6 9 6 10 defenders trying to guard wilt and bill, but they failed, because there to dominate. Also those 7 footers where all stars, not jus bill and wilt

    @vincenzopromedia 14 дней назад

    Nope. Kobe played in 3 of the best and most competitive eras and he had the most skills and awards for all of it. Bill won the most but had no competition mich didnt win as much as bill but did not have as much competition as kobe and curry played when the leage got softer by removing hand checking letting ppl carry travel shoot more 3s stat pad bubble arenas nepotism less stategy more wins by a certain amount or people will lose a lot of their money and having more high school phenoms rather than honing collage talent into superstars hoping for the next Kobe Bryant but ja Mirant is not kobe. Kobe caught a case for being famous. Ja caught a case for being an idiot. He also beat up a kid in real life. And lebron just sucks. Lebron said we were being hunted when he has white butlers. He said he averaged a triple double so when the team didn't win it wasn't his fault. After all hes the greatest its just that simple but he plays with his son now so all of that is forgiven.
