The Celtics wanted him the 80's. He would come to the Celtics and the NBA because he could get a Guarantee that he could play every minute of every game. If he would have gotten with Bird they would have been unbeatable. My dad was a big fan of Oscar.
@@diegovega61 i respect that G, for me Kareem was the best ever to do it, but nobody has ever made more points in the history of basketball than oscar, just saying that :)
One of the Greatest Pure Shooters of All Time. Sucks He Never Played in the NBA. He Might Have Even Eclipsed Petrovic. This is Also...Oscar Passed His Prime.
Ahead of his time, not because he *took* a lot of threes but because he *made* a lot of threes. If Europe has 2 Larry Birds in Jokic and Doncic, Brazil has (or had) Oscar.
@@FluGotGame these new age kids get clueless when it comes to history. It's like everything started when they were born. Dummy's out of the tummy's. Hey Jay king, Oscar is older than Klay if you can't comprehend the obvious
Oscar was drafted by New Jersey Nets and they offered him a guaranted contract (He averaged +25 points against Charles Barkley's defense in that training camp), but in that time NBA teams didnt allow foreign players go to their national team for Olympic games and World championship. Oscar never refused to defend Brazil national team in Olimpic games, so NBA lost an amazing basketball player because these stupid rules and restrictions.
He is 6´9" with a quick release, it was tough to guard him.
I wish he had played in the NBA. This dude could get buckets ANYWHERE!
The main reason why he is so special because he is 6'9 and can shoot and dribble
mao santa, che giocatore #respect
The best score all the time! Big Oscar

Cmon man
@@diegovega61 aint it right ? tell me anyone who has more points than him
@@diegovega61 im talking about basketball in general man, oscar has 49k points
@@bgkl6388 He was great among the top 10 greatest scorers in my opinion but is only that...an opinion bro

Good size, and ability to slow the game down, great scorer and shooter...

When was his prime Im tryna learn about him lol
@@Jack.Gulezian 80's decade
He is the only player other than MJ who I've seen release his shot after the apex of his jump.
he was crazy good even in his mid to late 30s
LeBron 37, Curry 34 ???
This dude was amazing
Al lunedi sulla gazzetta dopo la scuola prima cosa che andavo a leggere ..qua ti punti aveva fatto MAO SANTA!! Oscar o'rey du TRIPLOO
l'avessero bendato agli occhi, avrebbe segnato dappertutto lo stesso, grande oscar.

Would have been so lethal in todays NBA
Best scorer ever
Oscar the best!!!

Bro i once heard him say that after pratice was over, he wouldnt Go home until he made 50 straight 3 point shoots
Legend
i like the shot at at 2:45
Reminds me a lot of Klay, & he even wears 11🔥
Klay reminds you of him * he’s a way better shooter then anyone ever by far it’s not even close

@@FluGotGame Oscar is better than everyone besides Steph Curry.
Watching this in 2023, I was just thinking that, with the off-ball movement and how he sets up his jumper, it's Klay on steroids
Dude looks like the Brazilian Adam Morrison
I bet you look at the mirror and say “ handsome”delusional nerd.
haha, the guys at the opponent bench were pissed off!!!
Interesting to see the 60s lol Being played in the 90s lol
Pavia!
Ma il telecronista sa dire qualcosa di diverso da "Oscar va a bersaglio?"
L'ha detto 9 volte in 4 minuti! 10 se si conta la volta in cui lo dice l'altro cronista... Ma quando spiegavano i sinonimi a scuola lui era malato?
Avrebbe devastato anche le difese nba
He would have done well in the NBA. He might have had to work a little harder to get that good look at the basket but when gets that look...swish!❤️
Ele nunca jogou na NBA pois se joga -se , nunca mais ia poder jogar pela seleção Brasileira .
Lo step back lo ha inventato lui
best ever!!
Amazing player
I think he maybe did
caralho n tinha smile
P
why didnt celtics sign and give all shots?
Oscar was drafted by New Jersey Nets and they offered him a guaranted contract (He averaged +25 points against Charles Barkley's defense in that training camp), but in that time NBA teams didnt allow foreign players go to their national team for Olympic games and World championship.
