You gotta take the injuries with it cuz Grant Hll got injured the prior season in Detroit then played on a broken foot in the playoffs which made the situation horribly worse. HOWEVER, Duncan being there puts less tread on McGrady and maybe he doesn't break down physically as soon as he did.
Imagine watching them go up against Magic, Kareem and Worthy throughout the mid/late 80s? And then seeing Bird, McHale and Parish in the Finals and/or the Bad Boy Pistons? That would've been epic fucking basketball.
@@Israel-nb7ip I mean in hakeems second season they went up against the celtics in the finals but lost in 5 or 6 games... Man this hurts as a rockets fan
I wouldn't have either...go back and check what Boston actually gave up for KG. Their offer was significantly better PLUS he had zero incentive to help LA unless LA was going to make it worth his while.
@6 languages and 4 degrees dude if there's a player who can shot at 34% clip with much higher volume means that player is a better shooter than a player who shoots once in a blue moon with 33%. Determining a good shooter is not based on percentage but based on the volumes he shot
T. Duncan: "I'll join the Magic if my family can come with me on the flights" Doc Rivers: "Nope." Wtf Doc? That decision potentially costed them a championship. Prime T-Mac, Grant Hill still doing good, and prime Duncan would've been deadly

Don't forget Dantley. Him and Nique played the same position so one would have had to go and a trade of prime Dantley would have garnered some interest. Making a deal with Portland which would include swapping the #16 and #19 picks, ensuring the Jazz still got Stockton, might have helped. With the #2 pick the Jazz would take Jordan and then re-route Darrell Griffith for a future #1 (as a 20ppg scorer and the league leader in 3pt % the prior year, he would have interest as well). Remember the Jazz were having financial issues and wanted to save on payroll at this time. The 1984-85 season would show a promising young team with Wilkins, Jordan, Green, Eaton, Bailey as well as Stockton and Hansen off the bench. Jordan and Wilkins would have been the 'air up there' duo with flashy dunks possible every possession, which would have helped to get the team more profitable at the gate, staving off the possible sale of the team during the 1984-1986 timeframe. However they likely would have done well enough to not pick #13 in 1985, meaning Karl Malone would have never joined the team. Oh well, fun to wonder about.
2019 warriors falied because they lost to the raptors.4allstars dray,curry,tompson,bogie klay got injured in game 6.raptors two allstar lowry leonard.kd was injured
KD and klay got hella injured, Boogie was coming out of an injury, rusty, Iggy got injured mid game, Shaun old, raptors pretty much 5 v 1 Curry. Made a strategy specifically for him. Kawhi traveled at the end of game 6, significant. Raptors played amazing. Warriors won the game KD played like 7 minutes, raptors couldn't stop them with KD. Warriors were a heeeeeell waaaay better team. Injuries got waaaay out of hand
I’m from San Antonio, and I remember when Tim Duncan was considering leaving to play in Orlando. WELL WE ALL KNOW HOW THAT ENDED! 5x NBA CHAMP! would’ve been 6 if Kawhi Leonard would’ve made his damn free throws in 2013 Finals Game 6..... AND YOU KNOW THIS!!!!
This scenario of Dream, Glide, and Black Jesus playing together is scary. I can imagine the Inside-Outside options of feeding an unmatched post player and cutting with such a quality wing still one pass away and then the other geeting into a spotup position in the corner three or pinch-post area. I can also image the Outside-Inside pick-n-roll options of that same big presenting himself to one of these guards with the other still spotting up or cutting to the hoop.
Yeah dude just unbeatable. Also dont forget the Nash-Dirk-Shaq trio. Nash could pick and roll with Shaq and pick and pop with Dirk all day long. Shaq could post up and Dirk with Nash (legendary shooters) waiting for the double or triple team.
ironically enough about that bulls team, the heat had the highest odds for the first pick but fell to two and got michael beasley instead of derrick rose
They still could've drafted Russell Westbrook or Kevin Love instead of Beasley who was NEVER going to do well in MIA because of that franchise's culture and that city. Also, OJ Mayo would've been a good pick cuz he would've probably responded well to the Heat culture of discipline and accountability.
@@Israel-nb7ip oh mayo was actually the guy that riley loves and actually wanted. In the end, he just didnt have the stones to pass on Beasley's talent.
@@swaymcthunder1219 yeah, I remember. He relunctantly look Beasley...but all the more reason to either trade down or just draft Mayo and live with the results. I remember Mayo being a can't miss prospect out of HS and, even though he kind of didn't live up to the hype at USC, he was still considered a top 3-4 pick universally. I also remember people comparing his work ethic to Kobe's back then and even worked with Kobe's trainer for awhile when he was @USC. He's a 100% example of a guy that got drafted to the wrong franchise for his personality. Being in MIA and having Wade mentor him would've been all the difference in him living up to his talent.
Ya'll forgot to put sixers almost got TMAC in a traded between the raptors in 1999. If not for Stephen A Smith who leak the trade before the trade was a done deal. The trade did not happend because the Raptors got cold feet and they cancel the whole thing. Just imagine TMAC and AI in the Finals against Kobe and Shaq in 01..
LeBron could have hoisted himself to even greater heights with a move to Chicago to create a new dynasty...follow in his idol's footsteps, that would have been something. Honestly, it's hard to believe that he didn't do it.
The 70s Knicks were a super team no one talks about. Walt Frazier, earl Monroe, Willis reed, and Dave DeBusschere all Hall of Famers. The other starting Forward was Bill Bradley, while not an NBA superstar, he was an All Star in 1973, and was an incredibly important part of the team, he was also elected to The basketball Hall of Fame, but that is more due to his overall body of work counting NBA Euro League and Olympics, and his Stellar College career. Oh and Phil Jackson came off the bench He is one of Only two players to have an NBA title, a Euro league title, and an Olympic Gold medal Manu Ginóbili being the other
The Kobe-KG-Pau does not make sense here because they were after both guys on two very separate occasions. They were trying to convince Kobe of not leaving the Lakers by pursuing either KG or Jermaine at the end of the 07 season and the offseaso after that however it never happened because the Wolves and Pacers wanted both Bynum and Odom and the Lakers weren't willing to give up both for either Garnett lr Oneal. So, by the 08 seasom they traded for Pau
Andy makes great videos but he also forgets/says some dumb stuff sometimes. For example, it's pretty obvious that if the Lakers got Kevin Garnett, they never would've traded for Pau. Andy makes all these videos yet didn't even mention that Pau was traded to the Lakers in 2008, not 2007. So he wasn't already there.
That Rockets team would've been the greatest basketball team period in my opinion. Just Hakeem and MJ on the same team is scary. Add Clyde to that and you get an unbelievable team.
MJ joining mavs was also considered at one point and imagine If Dennis Rodman sticked around. Would have been a powerful Steve dirk vet Rodman and MJ and nick van axel
You look back on it if you’re the Rockets whoever there owners were at that time, and that probably hunted them for a long time. I know Ralph Sampson was good , but they had a chance at Clyde granted they still got him late in his career and won a “ chip” with him but they had a chance at a young Clyde who was amazing and to possibly use that 2 pick on Michael Jeffery Jordan aka “Goat” it would’ve hurt not seeing him here in Chicago but that time would’ve probably broke the Celts record for “ chips” if they could co exist because both Clyde and MJ played the same position that is why Portland didn’t draft him. Looking back on it that is insane but go back to 1984 you can understand Portland logic and Houston but if someone had a time machine and could show both the future and what MJ became , there is no way he gets to the bulls at 3 . Chicago never has the United Center and Jerry Reinsdorf probably would’ve sold the team long ago . Just amazing even thinking about it.
David Stern’s “basketball reason” for veteoing the CP3 trade was so he could trade him to the clippers. It would give them two great teams in the league’s biggest market Edit: Kobe also probably wouldn’t have gotten his Achilles injury which means he honestly could still be playing. That means he wouldn’t have died in a helicopter crash
Nice conspiracy theory...except Stern was in the process of selling the team and didn't want to sell a franchise, especially one in a city that was just devastated by natural disaster and lost a huge chunk of its population, without one of the league's bright young stars on it. That's why he vetoed the trade. The trade he vetoed wouldn't have brought back ONE young star. The trade they actually made brought back Eric Gordon who at the time was considered one of the future rising stars at his position and they also got a Clippers pick that was top ten, which they used on Austin Rivers. But go ahead and entertain us with your conspiracy theories that you have zero evidence to support...
Actually T-Mac and Shaq wanted to team up with Dirk but it never happened... I saw an Interview and article where T-Mac said him and Shaq where talking about that idea for about a year
No, the original owner (George Shinn) was in massive debt and couldn't cover his loses or build a team that can compete. Chris Paul was also fed up of the ownership not being able to give him help on the court so he demanded for a trade. So in late 2010, Shinn put the team for sale but no one was interested. He tried to convince the top minority owner to buy his stock to become the majority owner, but the minority owner refused. Shinn also had a negative reputation after he went to trial for raping a woman back in 2002, so fans were refusing to attend the games under Shinn's ownership. Eventually, the NBA bought the team from Shinn and had their people run it to make them competitive.

I remember all the rumored talk of 2003 offseason and the Spurs being linked to Kidd. Which was odd as they just beat Kidd and the Nets in the NBA Finals.
Kind of like the Warriors signing Durant? That's what the reaction would have been and probably why Kidd got cold feet. Still would have been an amazing team though!
Tony Parker underrated as hell I recall him being unstoppable diving the ball and that floater he had was pretty and he developed a 3pt shot I’m glad SA didn’t pick up Kidd I think it would of stunted Tony’s growth
It’s a good thing the Houston- Chicago trade didn’t go through or MJ might not have been considered the GOAT. In Chicago MJ was the man, in Houston he probably would be just second fiddle to Olajuwon which would affect his status as greatest of all time. Just my two cents.
Does any team actually allows their star to take their family on the team plane to road games? It would disturb the team. And I find the demand rather impertinent. You can't allow all players to take their family/entourage, and how would his teammate feel when they see that the star is the only one allowed doing it?
@@shawndurham297 d rose wouldn't have became d rose if he played with LeBron.. Think about it..

LeBrons play style wouldn't allow d rose to be his best.
Roger Roger you do realize that wouldn’t have been getting anywhere near enough touches to have a chance at winning it and he would be competing with Lebron who was on his team
Well the CP to the Lakers trade was mentioned, but a deal was in place to send CP3 to Boston for Rondo. However, Doc Rivers declined because he didn’t want his friend, the Pelicans coach, having to put up with Rondo’s personality.
Anyone remember the possible trade between Chris Webber and Allan Houston, which would have sent Allan Houston to the Sacramento Kings and Chris Webber to the New York Knicks in late 1999- early 2000 which would put C-Webb on the same team as Patrick Ewing, Latrell Sprewell, Larry Johnson, Marcus Camby, Charles Oakley and John Staks. The Shaq & Dirk combination in Dallas were have been interesting.
If LeBron went to Chicago, he could've given healthy tips on taking of your body to Rose, and wouldn't be severely injured, and won championships together with wade, most especially if James took the playmaker duty.
Fun Fact : We actually saw D.Rose, D.Wade and LeBron play together on the Cavs 😂

And Brian scalabrine
And Bonga
Ok galaxy opals we get it
The MEME team 😭🤣
TROG SQUAD
Lol mchale was never gonna send KG the lakers over boston cmon now
For real 😂😂😂.
Exactly, the Lakers were his rival. He hated them.
You forgot the Trade with Boston in 2018 where kawhi Lenard and Anthony Davis where rumored about being traded when Kyrie was still there
This isnt a video about silly rumors. This is about things that were actually close to happening.
Sway McThunder it was gonna happen but kawhi declined for the raptors
And Davis declined also because he had beef with someone
@@Talibanmexicano It was never ever going to happen. Do the research.
Talia Mason yes it was but they declined are you stupid?
2019 warriors falied because they lost to the raptors.4allstars dray,curry,tompson,bogie klay got injured in game 6.raptors two allstar lowry leonard.kd was injured
@Luis Francisco that 's y i didn't say kd because he was injured then i said klay got injured
I get what you are trying to say but man those sentences are hard to read. Use some more words my guy
everybody sub to me
@Luis Francisco no they lost in 2016
KD and klay got hella injured, Boogie was coming out of an injury, rusty, Iggy got injured mid game, Shaun old, raptors pretty much 5 v 1 Curry. Made a strategy specifically for him. Kawhi traveled at the end of game 6, significant. Raptors played amazing. Warriors won the game KD played like 7 minutes, raptors couldn't stop them with KD. Warriors were a heeeeeell waaaay better team. Injuries got waaaay out of hand
Duncan on here twice shows how versatile his game was.
You forgot the most recent: LeBron, AD and Kawhi to the Lakers in the summer of 2019 when KL2 was a free agent
Another What-If Superteam: Michael Jordan and Patrick Ewing in New York (1996 Free Agency)
rose probably doesnt get injured having to carry Bulls as the 1st seed back 2 back seasons.
As a magic fan I would have loved to see Duncan in Orlando. Shaq and Dirk would have been amazing to watch tho
The top 2 maybe 3 would've been amazing Duncan with t-mac and a healthy grant hill!!??
Garnett became a Celtic because Mchale was their GM 😂 dude bleeds green
That MJ-Hakeem-Dexler superteam would be so unstoppable. 😳
Did this boy just say Dirk was “maybe” the best shooting big man ever...it’s definite, unless you somehow count kd as a big man.
Karl Anthony Towns has better career FG%, 3P% and TS% compared to Dirk who's only better at FT%.
Abu Hassan kat only have played 5 seasons compared to 21 wtf
Abu Hassan 21 full seasons of COMPETING vs 5 seasons of empty stats on a bad team
Well, KD is a 7-footer. I recall during Dirk's peak in 2011 and as KD was truly approaching superstardom, people would call KD the Black Dirk
@@abuhassan8849 April 1st is over.
I’m from San Antonio, and I remember when Tim Duncan was considering leaving to play in Orlando. WELL WE ALL KNOW HOW THAT ENDED! 5x NBA CHAMP! would’ve been 6 if Kawhi Leonard would’ve made his damn free throws in 2013 Finals Game 6..... AND YOU KNOW THIS!!!!
Or Duncan been on the court to rebound
When you hear those trumpets... you know what I’m gonna say
Thank you Andy for another masterpiece
Roberto Lebron finally an original version of this comment.
This scenario of Dream, Glide, and Black Jesus playing together is scary.
I can imagine the Inside-Outside options of feeding an unmatched post player and cutting with such a quality wing still one pass away and then the other geeting into a spotup position in the corner three or pinch-post area.
I can also image the Outside-Inside pick-n-roll options of that same big presenting himself to one of these guards with the other still spotting up or cutting to the hoop.
Yeah dude just unbeatable. Also dont forget the Nash-Dirk-Shaq trio. Nash could pick and roll with Shaq and pick and pop with Dirk all day long. Shaq could post up and Dirk with Nash (legendary shooters) waiting for the double or triple team.
Bruh... Imagine shaq, Kobe, Karl Malone, Dennis Rodman, Gary Payton, Rick fox on the same team oh wait...
Damn only Malone who never got a ring.
ironically enough about that bulls team, the heat had the highest odds for the first pick but fell to two and got michael beasley instead of derrick rose
Yeah, bulls fan here, that draft was rigged for us
They still could've drafted Russell Westbrook or Kevin Love instead of Beasley who was NEVER going to do well in MIA because of that franchise's culture and that city. Also, OJ Mayo would've been a good pick cuz he would've probably responded well to the Heat culture of discipline and accountability.
@@Israel-nb7ip oh mayo was actually the guy that riley loves and actually wanted. In the end, he just didnt have the stones to pass on Beasley's talent.
@@swaymcthunder1219 yeah, I remember. He relunctantly look Beasley...but all the more reason to either trade down or just draft Mayo and live with the results. I remember Mayo being a can't miss prospect out of HS and, even though he kind of didn't live up to the hype at USC, he was still considered a top 3-4 pick universally. I also remember people comparing his work ethic to Kobe's back then and even worked with Kobe's trainer for awhile when he was @USC. He's a 100% example of a guy that got drafted to the wrong franchise for his personality. Being in MIA and having Wade mentor him would've been all the difference in him living up to his talent.
Ya'll forgot to put sixers almost got TMAC in a traded between the raptors in 1999. If not for Stephen A Smith who leak the trade before the trade was a done deal. The trade did not happend because the Raptors got cold feet and they cancel the whole thing.
Just imagine TMAC and AI in the Finals against Kobe and Shaq in 01..
Possible to do a how good was John salmons or A Caron Butler one? I love your “How good” videos. You’re awesome!
Kobe and KG on the same team? Damn.
If Garnett had gone to LA, they probably wouldn't have gotten Gasol in a trade. Also, Tmac and Duncan + Grant Hill is a GIANT what if.
Macr Gasol, doe!
Ahh the NBA super teams video , but gotta love those Andy hoops trumpets 🎺
bruce lau exactly
LeBron could have hoisted himself to even greater heights with a move to Chicago to create a new dynasty...follow in his idol's footsteps, that would have been something. Honestly, it's hard to believe that he didn't do it.
If we would’ve gotten LeBron and Dwade or at least Melo, the Bulls would’ve at least won a championship
The 70s Knicks were a super team no one talks about. Walt Frazier, earl Monroe, Willis reed, and Dave DeBusschere all Hall of Famers. The other starting Forward was Bill Bradley, while not an NBA superstar, he was an All Star in 1973, and was an incredibly important part of the team, he was also elected to The basketball Hall of Fame, but that is more due to his overall body of work counting NBA Euro League and Olympics, and his Stellar College career. Oh and Phil Jackson came off the bench
He is one of Only two players to have an NBA title, a Euro league title, and an Olympic Gold medal Manu Ginóbili being the other
The Kobe-KG-Pau does not make sense here because they were after both guys on two very separate occasions. They were trying to convince Kobe of not leaving the Lakers by pursuing either KG or Jermaine at the end of the 07 season and the offseaso after that however it never happened because the Wolves and Pacers wanted both Bynum and Odom and the Lakers weren't willing to give up both for either Garnett lr Oneal. So, by the 08 seasom they traded for Pau
How could you forget about Jordan almost leaving the bulls after the 96 season to go to the Knicks!? Jordan, Ewing and LJ?
On a second note, a duo of Dirk and Kobe in LA is scary for real if that trade fell through
Andy makes great videos but he also forgets/says some dumb stuff sometimes. For example, it's pretty obvious that if the Lakers got Kevin Garnett, they never would've traded for Pau. Andy makes all these videos yet didn't even mention that Pau was traded to the Lakers in 2008, not 2007. So he wasn't already there.
That Rockets team would've been the greatest basketball team period in my opinion. Just Hakeem and MJ on the same team is scary. Add Clyde to that and you get an unbelievable team.
MJ joining mavs was also considered at one point and imagine If Dennis Rodman sticked around. Would have been a powerful Steve dirk vet Rodman and MJ and nick van axel
Pau would’ve never came if KG had gone to the lakers
talkingdogpro CP and Dwight Howard too
KG was better than Pau. All the respect to Gasol, but KG was maybe the best PF, certainly in Duncan's and Malone's level
I waited so long to watch this cuz I thought it was a mike korzemba vid 😂 all love Andy 🙏🙌
You look back on it if you’re the Rockets whoever there owners were at that time, and that probably hunted them for a long time. I know Ralph Sampson was good , but they had a chance at Clyde granted they still got him late in his career and won a “ chip” with him but they had a chance at a young Clyde who was amazing and to possibly use that 2 pick on Michael Jeffery Jordan aka “Goat” it would’ve hurt not seeing him here in Chicago but that time would’ve probably broke the Celts record for “ chips” if they could co exist because both Clyde and MJ played the same position that is why Portland didn’t draft him. Looking back on it that is insane but go back to 1984 you can understand Portland logic and Houston but if someone had a time machine and could show both the future and what MJ became , there is no way he gets to the bulls at 3 . Chicago never has the United Center and Jerry Reinsdorf probably would’ve sold the team long ago . Just amazing even thinking about it.
Duncan and T-Mac would've been cool but I wouldn't change history to take Duncan off those Spurs teams for anything.
David Stern’s “basketball reason” for veteoing the CP3 trade was so he could trade him to the clippers. It would give them two great teams in the league’s biggest market
Edit: Kobe also probably wouldn’t have gotten his Achilles injury which means he honestly could still be playing. That means he wouldn’t have died in a helicopter crash
What a stretch
That Last part is in poor taste
Nice conspiracy theory...except Stern was in the process of selling the team and didn't want to sell a franchise, especially one in a city that was just devastated by natural disaster and lost a huge chunk of its population, without one of the league's bright young stars on it. That's why he vetoed the trade. The trade he vetoed wouldn't have brought back ONE young star. The trade they actually made brought back Eric Gordon who at the time was considered one of the future rising stars at his position and they also got a Clippers pick that was top ten, which they used on Austin Rivers. But go ahead and entertain us with your conspiracy theories that you have zero evidence to support...
And BTW, that Kobe part of your comment is just plain stupid. Kobe would still be playing at 41-42? LOL...ok, genius.
Israel Rosario Jr. Vince Carter is 44 and Kobe could put up 60 at age 37 after a torn Achilles so no one knows
Actually T-Mac and Shaq wanted to team up with Dirk but it never happened... I saw an Interview and article where T-Mac said him and Shaq where talking about that idea for about a year
The dream and mj on the same team????? That wouldve been shaq nd kobe on steroids!!!!!!
Those trumpets signify a beginning of a masterpiece
How were the New Orleans Hornets “Owned by the league”
They didn't have an owner at that time, so the NBA had to deal with the team.
No, the original owner (George Shinn) was in massive debt and couldn't cover his loses or build a team that can compete. Chris Paul was also fed up of the ownership not being able to give him help on the court so he demanded for a trade. So in late 2010, Shinn put the team for sale but no one was interested. He tried to convince the top minority owner to buy his stock to become the majority owner, but the minority owner refused. Shinn also had a negative reputation after he went to trial for raping a woman back in 2002, so fans were refusing to attend the games under Shinn's ownership. Eventually, the NBA bought the team from Shinn and had their people run it to make them competitive.

I remember all the rumored talk of 2003 offseason and the Spurs being linked to Kidd. Which was odd as they just beat Kidd and the Nets in the NBA Finals.
Kind of like the Warriors signing Durant? That's what the reaction would have been and probably why Kidd got cold feet. Still would have been an amazing team though!
Tony Parker underrated as hell I recall him being unstoppable diving the ball and that floater he had was pretty and he developed a 3pt shot I’m glad SA didn’t pick up Kidd I think it would of stunted Tony’s growth
2:53 it’s not like Kevin mc hale played for Boston.
Those Lakers practice games would've been intense if kg would have went there.
Dirk and Shaq best combination 2 unguardable duo 5 rings
It’s a good thing the Houston- Chicago trade didn’t go through or MJ might not have been considered the GOAT. In Chicago MJ was the man, in Houston he probably would be just second fiddle to Olajuwon which would affect his status as greatest of all time. Just my two cents.
Does any team actually allows their star to take their family on the team plane to road games? It would disturb the team. And I find the demand rather impertinent. You can't allow all players to take their family/entourage, and how would his teammate feel when they see that the star is the only one allowed doing it?
I don’t think Deng would’ve been on that team, if they signed LBJ & Wade.. I think the Bulls didn’t have tha cap space to keep Deng
Bruh, at 9:06 I lost it at T-mac's reaction knowing they could've had TD if Doc just said yes to one simple request lmaooooo.
Lebron would’ve won more had he went to Chicago.
Shawn Durham will prevent rose injury
Since drose is younger than him they still playing together right now still
Niko FernandeZ That and Lebron & Wade would’ve taken some pressure off of Rose, and he prob wouldn’t have gotten injured.
@@shawndurham297 d rose wouldn't have became d rose if he played with LeBron.. Think about it.. Chris bosh was a very big factor for the heat and everybody acting like he was just another average player because he had to role-play for LeBron.. Same shit happened to kevin love.. LeBrons play style wouldn't allow d rose to be his best.
Doubtful, that team was horrible offensively and nobody likes playing 5 on 4 defensively.
Apparently Gasol and Deng were gonna join the heatles back in the early 10’s. That wouldve been INSANE
it wouldn't have worked well. absolutely no spacing with that group, things would have been way to clogged for any of them to really function.
OKC Thunder was just too young, the brooklyn team was too old and so were the Nash Lakers
Damn! Jason Kidd nearly pulled a Kevin Durant "if you can't beat them, join them" type of move. Lol
This man really said D Rose wouldn’t have developed into a Mvp playing with LeBron and Wade lmao.
Roger Roger right! Ppl just be talkin 🤦🏾♂️
Roger Roger you do realize that wouldn’t have been getting anywhere near enough touches to have a chance at winning it and he would be competing with Lebron who was on his team
The Wexicano He said “develop into a Mvp” not become a Mvp. Touches don’t make a player dawg
Roger Roger developed* that means he is one
The Wexicano he would’ve developed into a Mvp type player that doesn’t get enough touches to become mvp
Well the CP to the Lakers trade was mentioned, but a deal was in place to send CP3 to Boston for Rondo. However, Doc Rivers declined because he didn’t want his friend, the Pelicans coach, having to put up with Rondo’s personality.
Dude, Had a Chance to get CP3 and He fucked it up 😂
Can you make a video on how good was Rasheed Wallace?
Number 1 hurts my soul, not even a fan of any parties involved, just my inner gm dying as they passed on that beautiful deal
Anyone remember the possible trade between Chris Webber and Allan Houston, which would have sent Allan Houston to the Sacramento Kings and Chris Webber to the New York Knicks in late 1999- early 2000 which would put C-Webb on the same team as Patrick Ewing, Latrell Sprewell, Larry Johnson, Marcus Camby, Charles Oakley and John Staks.
The Shaq & Dirk combination in Dallas were have been interesting.
Love your channel
Great video Andy!!!
JKidd ,Ginobili and Timmy.
Kobe,Kg, and Pau
That's scary im glad it didnt happen lol
If LeBron went to Chicago, he could've given healthy tips on taking of your body to Rose, and wouldn't be severely injured, and won championships together with wade, most especially if James took the playmaker duty.
Man imagine Jordan, Hakeen and Clyde vs Magic, Kareem and Worthy, that would be awesome
Hakeem and Sampson beat Magic, Kareem, and Worthy in ‘86 playoffs 4-1. Jordan, Hakeem, and Clyde would easily beat Showtime.
Imagine Hakeem The Dream, Air Jordan & Clyde The Glide Drexler all on the same team 🤯🤯🤯🤯
alternate universe: "imagine Allen Pierce and Garnett on the same team"
