@@landrewilkinson7993 right. Cause the average baller would start in today's league? I admit that there were a bunch of talentless thugs in the previous NBA but today a center actually has talent. Has to shoot a free throw or an open 3. Stop. Your gray hair is showing.
90s " IRON WHAT? " The Iron men where in the 60s, 70s & early to mid 80s. From there it was fake tough guys protected by soft rules and mindless thugs.
I agree. Oakley was super tough, but LJ was a tank. (Mason was also a tank). I used to hate the thug teams like Detroit and Pat Riley's Knicks, but I miss the old NBA. I'd welcome them back if we could get the same kind of sport back.
na oak went right up to johnson.. I watched that entire series. Oakley and Mason were far more physical, and Mourning was the one having the great series.. LJ had like one good game.. you something wrong there..
These were the days when I actually watched basketball 🏀. These guys were straight up old school tough: physical, rugged, no nonsense basketball athletes 🏀.
Is it just me that feels like they played harder, physical yet didn't miss a lot of games back in the day? In today's game they miss the whole damn season from a hang nail... I could be wrong but I don't remember the stars nor role players missing a lot of time bc of injuries
@Ty Martin although I agree with you 💯, but MJ (Michael Jordan) suffered a season ending foot or ankle injury in his second or third year in the NBA. Yeah, they played through injury more often than these cats do in this generation, and got paid way less. Yet, their still living souls like the many of us: they suffered some really painful season, even career ending injuries too. Another example, Larry Bird and his severe back problem or issue that literally chased him out of the NBA. Had LB not had that issue he would've been playing more into the early 90's before retiring. Plus, the nature of the man back in the day was that of men, not that of a bunch of soft and sensitive "I'm offended" or "triggered" pansies. Even, young men from that period in time such as the 70's, 80's, and early 90's who grew up with or without a father in the home, still were way tougher than this generation of young men and women who are being raised in the same manner. But I digress. Moreover, there use to be community within the people which looked out for the community of children and one another, and taught us the ropes of life. Now, I wouldn't dare leave my children on the steps of my crib for a few minutes without having an unsettling feeling in my spirit that someone will intentionally do them harm. The way things used to be changed because of the so-called "powers that be" indoctrinated the people through steady programing via the propagation of immorality and depravity to make the men and women in this society to appear weak, incompetent, ignorant, toxic, etc. for the feminist, homosexual, racial, and political movement towards a more evil and darker agenda. Again, I digress.
That’s not basketball that’s why players today are a lot better, fighting and being tough isn’t a basketball skill only people who can’t play say bs like this, change the sport to football
I love it back in the day when a guy is injured play continues until the next dead ball. The physicality of the league was part why it was so enjoyable
@Juan Perez ? The issue is the technical foul, which is based on a Referee's discretion unlike a foul call or traveling. If two players get in an argument it's up to the referee to determine whether it's a tech or not, and in my opinion it was the right call based on the importance of the situation.
@@8countsports I don't know about that one. If they can let that go, then a guy can drive to the hole and get hammered and the refs can not call it. Which actually they do 😂. So really it's all at the discretion of the ref unless it's blatantly obvious
7:21 Grown man league right here. Dude is writhing in pain, and the play goes on. That happens to one of these one-and-dones today, the entire medical staff is called out, the offending player receives a flagrant foul and prison time, and James Harden gets 10 free throws.
Averaged almost career double double, with 35 Pt. Game high and 26 pt. playoff high. Also 80% for FT with ALOT of trees. Developed a very solid 15 ft J. He’s far from Giannis but the man could ball
@@Scott-px6mi yea notice it was Larry Johnson initiating most of the conflict, Oakley walked away, he knew who to mess with, which is why he's probably right about Barkley being soft, because he went right at him
Larry Johnson & Charles Okaley had some heated moments when Johnson played for the Hornets then they became teammates and had each other's backs. Good Times back then when NBA was fun to watch, nice footage.

If you want to see the biggest difference between todays NBA player, and the players of the 90's...just look at the body type of the front court players. Everyone was muscled up. You couldn't play in the paint as a 220 lb big man and survive.
Jordan changed that, he kept whining to the commissioner, then the Jordan rules came about, now the whole league has those rules. Jordan changed the game.
huh? The league started turning “soft” and rules started changing to promote more offense. It’s generally accepted that the 04 was season 1 of the league getting soft…Jordan was retired by then.
You are 100% correct. Oakley was a beast but notice he didn't want anything to do with Larry. Hungout with LJ 3 years ago in Atlantic City.... talked basketball for an hour and we talked more college then NBA due to the fact that I lived in Vegas during his time at UNLV. Very cool dude.... took many photos and he personally signed a UNLV #4 jersey for me. I'm still depressed over that semifinal loss to Duke..... and it still haunts him.
@@tttttttttttttttt5634 LJ boxed and trained with police at the Police Academy but there is no record of him being a GOOD boxer. C'mon son stop it. He missed every swing he took against the ocky Mourning

LOL Prime LJ Larry Johnson was a absolute Beast. Built more like a Football player or Professional Boxer. Them big wide shoulders and long arms possed alot of power i guarantee it.
That was Awesome b-ball back in the day I thought they changed it so players wouldn't get hurt,but players still get hurt today with out the rough theatrics,but it was still good for b-ball✌🏾
Back in the 90s, It seemed as though the Knicks were heated rivals with virtually everyone in the NBA. But I especially remember their bitterness with Miami.
He didn't have to dunk the ball. In NYC when we read the stats the next day, Oak had 15 rebounds and 11 points. He had a different job than most players. We loved him NYC. Trust and believe.
Oakley was something else , and slick to , He start something then start pointing at the other guy trying to get him throwed straight out and he be the one who started it. If was all about winning , his career is over and one of the nicest guys.

Old school refs were different ‼️😂 He choked Larry Johnson 😂😂😂
No he didn’t lmfao making up shit
he really did though! lol
Johnson, Oakley, Barkley, Mason, Kemp, Malone, Baker, Rodman, Williams, Coleman. The golden era of power forwards
Davis boys also...
The 00s with Duncan, kg, dirk, zbo, stoudmire, gasol.
Back in the days when driving to the rim could land you in the injured list.
The “No Lay Up” rule was in full effect back then 😂
But they would just get up and shake it off
Earl Monroe said their called the Chicago Stadium Blood Alley.
Right
This literally happens in the streets all the time.
LJ was so quick before his back injury, but he was clutch for the Knicks anyway.
LJ was an awful defensive player
@@makula5543 leave Grand mama alone
TRUTH.
Lol he was straight garbage in NY. Anthony Mason was way better in Charlotte

Man, this channel always makes me stay up to late. As a Knicks fan, We loved Oakley. We were disappointed when he was traded. Camby was too delicate.
Watching this gave me goosebumps! I miss the old school nba games
Great time to be a NBA fan
I see that a lot of dudes on here don’t remember Kevin Willis. He’d give Oakley the business
They banged, it was mutual respect! I remember...
Brah, they tryna advice him to stay calm you already got 1 tech.
Kevin Willis and Rick Mahorn... From the highlights I saw, Oakley didn't want to mess with either of them....

Exactly.Only the strong could survive back then.
😂😂 the change must be because of CTE! Lol
"Harden gets 10 free throws."
LOL!
LOL!!! I wish I could give you an award for that comment.
Pippen was terrified of Oakley. God I miss the good ol days. 😪
He was not terrified they were former teammates and good friends pippen just liked antagonizing Oak
No he wasn't they was good friend
When the refs holds onto Grandmama like that you know they got money on the game
They definitely did lol
Bennett "brought the crowd down" Salvatore.
Back then they broke up fights and talked to the players before throwing them out. Not like today where they get tossed for breathing.
🤣💯🤣
That’s all I thought! Lol 💯💯
When your whole game is based on being a tough guy, you will have up and coming tough guys test you every single year.
exactly. People act like oakley is some legend who could play basketball. He was just a dog. Tough. He couldn’t plAy and is not a legend.

Real man, Back then there was not eye contact with the referee during the scuffle. It was all personal...
Bs NBA now at days
i gotta give it to oakley, he knows how to play those mind games. he's laughing practically everytime the opposing player gets upset.
