That 01 Mav’s team made me a fan at 10 years old. The nostalgia of the Finley/Nash/Dirk young big 3 is amazing lol. Seeing how much Don Nelson was ahead of his time with the 5 out style is really wild, especially in an era with so many traditional offenses.
Man even that series had a few moments..People wanna say East wasn't as strong but look goin back, it was a dog fight almost every series especially with 1st round only 5 games
@@Bigedub101 It wasn't strong at all since the best teams were in the West, the 'moral' finals were usually the WCF, since the winner would beat whatever team made the finals from the East. There are some exceptions of course, the 2004 Pacers,2004-2005 Pistons and the 2006 Heat were very strong. Overall, the East may not have been as strong as the west, but it was very competitive. The East in 2001 was much more entertaining to watch in my opinion than the West, although it was great to watch that Lakers play.
@@chrisuncleahmad789 In 2001 only the Lakers or Spurs could make the finals. You're saying everybody else was a pretender, but the entire East was full of teams that were not going to win a championship that year. In 2002, the Kings were a powerhouse. For most of the 2000s, the East was much weaker than the West and filled with teams that were not going to beat the best teams of the West.
all these teams have hof's on both sides but the highlights are so one sided.....balance it out......you should 1 portland highlight dunk in a 7 game series I believe!
i try to find as many clips as possible, but sometimes i cant find all of them. A lot of game footage just didnt exist on youtube when i was making this video
@@justputdaniel1434 Yeah, nobody was stopping 2001 playoff Shaq lol. Talent wise they might have been the most talented team they would have played against during that 00-02 run. I don’t think they would have beat them though. I think it would have been a more competitive series.
@@brandonconforto315 i think it would have been similar to the pacers series was in 2000. Lakers go up 3-1, drop the closeout on the road, and win it all back home in game 6
some of the video ended up being really choppy. dont know how that happened. 2000 is next
This channel is criminally underrated

The duet between Iverson and Carter in ECSF was just historical.
SHAQ and KOBE cemented themselves as a top-3 duo of all time during these playoffs. Unreal performances.
kobe really looked like a complete player the whole run
AI basically carried the sizers to the finals and gave it all against the lakers a straight legend
Sixers
What a fuckin era of basketball. Unbelievable.
So many good moments
Thanks for making these videos, this one was another banger.
Iverson had one hell of a run.
I was going to go to sleep but then you dropped a banger video 🔥
Same
^
You tha goat for dropping dis vid because I was waiting for the 2001 playoffs
I honestly don’t understand why this channel is flying under the radar. This is easily the best nba channel
i wouldnt say im the best but i appreciate the compliment!
You are incredible at making these and finding these clips.
thanks!

The GOAT is back with another classic playoffs compilation
That run by Allen Iverson was truly legendary 😮💨
Keep bringing more of these man u r the truth
will do!
I always see it for pleasure as a Japanese liking NBA. Thank you very much!!!
no problem 👍👍
Man watching this brings back memories! My guy AI was soooooo close but the power house Lakers were too much 😔
he was unbelievable during the sixers whole playoff run
@@justputdaniel1434 Let's also factor in that around this time the eastern conference was a beast! The sixes went into that series banged up
@@IamMichael365 they showed so much heart as a team
Outside of Charlotte sweeping the Heat, the 01 East playoffs were LIT. East had a lot of comnpetitive series.
@@chrisuncleahmad789 Hell yeah, that Milwaukee bucks team was 🔥! The magic did good too, just imagine if TMac had a healthy Grant Hill with him tho!
Iverson was UNREAL in 2001

Coming back here to see Our Blocking Machine Highlights in his Final's Run. RIP Legend❤❤❤
dikembe was so damn good
This is my favorite youtube channel
Great video thank you 🙏 👍
TD AI Vince Ray Allen Mashburn Kobe Shaq Webber T Mac Micheal Finley the list goes on and on
kobe, vince and AI were frying😂
that semifinal series was crazy
Ray Allen to
33:28 shaq was moving fr 😂😭
When he was in shape, was the best.. Lakers could easily been just as dominant as Bulls .. And I'm a Bulls fan
Shaq was eating down there , holy shit
Shaq was massacring Mutombo my goodness, and Mutombo was a great defensive player.
RIP KOBE
Best era
Bro , this channel only has 2k subs wtf?🤯🤯🤡🤡🤡 It should have had 200k
25:32 scared the crap outta me LOL
Kobe killing the Spurs🔥🔥🔥
he was cooking
keep it up until 2000
you love to see it
The nba finals is like Iverson vs Lakers
Too bad the rest of his team was so injured
Yeah
2001 Lakers best playoff team of all time
If the bucks made the finals that year would have been nearly a 6 game series.
Lakers were unstoppable,the Sixers were lucky to get 1 game
@@Kingdizzleltdinc615They were more versatile and had more than one Scorer than Sixers.
Man Sabonis was getting obliterated. Lakers took turns dunking on this man
I mean not much you can do against shaq lmao
Doug christie defense was great
Al time
sabonis getting posterized about ten times this video ridiculous
Vince Carter was nasty
Who will win between the worst teams to make it to the NBA finals?
01 Sixers or 07 Cavs?
When playoffs 2000?
soon!
Goated
appreciate it!

Where is the hornets vs heat?
when i made the video there was practically no footage of the series
2016 playoffs incoming??
probably not, sorry
That year was one of the greatest postseasons in NBA history!! The video would be 2 hours long😂😂
2011 is second for me
EPL PG
LIGUE 1 G
LA LIGA PG
SERIE A G

I think the Bucks would have matched up better against the Lakers.
They certainly had more offensive options, but i dont think ervin johnson woulda did any better than mutombo

I agree they would pushed the Lakers to at least 6 games.
Ppl laugh when I say ant man a better micheal Finley 🥲
Say what u want but the East was a dog fight. And Kobe destroyed the Kings and demo the Spurs, he was carried my ass and I hate Lakers
