Could you do a video about the 1985 draft class I feels like that class doesn't get talked enough that is very underrated draft class that produced 4 Hall of Famers
@@ivaneurope I disagree. But I know why the HoF is taking its time with both of them. Billups does deserve to be a HOFer, but he was almost a bust, for one thing, and his career before he got to Detroit was largely pegged as such. IIRC, no undrafted players have ever made it to the HoF, even though Big Ben is pretty much the best undrafted player ever. So they both may go in eventually, but Mr. Big Shot will very likely hear his name called first Edit: completely forgot about Connie Hawkins, but he went to the ABA and made a lot of his history there before starring in the NBA. Big Ben is the only MODERN undrafted NBA player in the HoF. Edit 2: I was wrong. Big Ben is going first! Well deserved!
I'd say Ben Wallace has a more decorated career considering his 4 DPOYs. Billups gets most of his recognition for being the main scorer on that 2004 championship team, but not much else.
@@sugarlv6434 and still isn't a HoFer...truly a shame considering the 2004 Pistons beat HoFers on that Lakers team too...with Billups and the best undrafted NBA player of all time
It's very sad when players that have worked so hard for their entire lives to get drafted into the NBA are rendered OBSOLETE due to a myriad of factors.
Got idea's for 4 videos Greatest 2nd round picks of all times Most unexpected players who became stars or all stars. Greatest sleeper picks in NBA draft history. Players who look like bust but turned there career around.
Gerald wallace was the best player of bobcats not stephen jackson. And pls don't say led the bobcats. Their record was below .500. They were 7th seed on the eastern conference.
Something we have to take into account when it comes to sport drafts. Many players do not work out due to systems the team creates does not fit player styles. So many “busts” could’ve been successful within the right system
That's really true, and I hear about how some players went from pretty badly or lackadaisical organizations to much more seriously ran organizations...
Tim Thomas was a cool guy. One time when I went to see the Clippers he was talking to me and the people in my section during the halftime shoot around.
He was the same way on the Knicks. And I've heard NUMEROUS league guys say that he could have been the GOAT at his position. Idk, I never saw dude in his prime. But he was a REALLY nice guy.
@@marcoslaureano5562 When Tim Thomas came out of HS in 96, it was a loaded class of talent. Tim Thomas, Kobe Bryant, Mike Bibby, Jermaine O'Neal, Lester Earl, and Corey Benjamin (Corey challenged MJ to a 1v1 in 99 and got dominated [footage available online too]). Tim and Kobe were almost co-National Player of the year.
Kevin Garnett roasted Tim Duncan by saying “happy Mother’s Day” when he knew Tim’s mom passed when he was young and Tim proceeded to cook him for the next decade with no more words being exchanged, true legend
In terms of what this draft accomplished, it's the #8 best class of all time. Tim Duncan really does drag it all the way into the top 10 in terms of accomplishments.
Man, I really hoped you would mention Adonal Foyle going at #8. He was the constant presence through the Warriors' dark age, the bridge from the post-Run DMC years to the We Believe era.
Celtics manegement was not patient in the time and also traded Joe Johnson in 2001. A good big 3 would be of Billups, Johnson and Pierce if Celtics were patient.
Joe johnson too, imagine a line up of chauncey, pierce, johnson, walker they blew that up and wasted pierce prime playing on teams that had no championship hopes.
Can we all just thank tony Battie for saving Paul Pierce’s life, if he wasn’t there then Paul Pierce would be dead and we wouldn’t see a great basketball career that he had
Another good video. Minor gripe, I remember Derek Andersen was a good player. His numbers and accolades were not that good now that I look back but using the eye test back then, he was solid.
you forgot about anthony parker, who had an amazing career in the euroleague and was also a solid starter for the raptors and cavs with young lbj and older shaq. he had a nice run with the raptors, scoring about 15 in 6 playoff games before signing with the cavs. in europe he is still considered a legend and one of the best to ever play in the euroleague.
I currently have a Keith van Horn banner in my room. I loved the guy. I met Antonio at work acoule of years ago at work. It was cool to meet one of the guys that helped the spurs Win their first chip.
you forgot Austin Croshere, he helps Indiana reaching the Finals vs Lakers. Derek Anderson also with a good early career and won a championship at Miami in 2006
Tracy McGrady. This guy had eternal springs in his step. I remember watching all of his playoff games as a Magic and thought what if he got the help from Grant Hill or played with a decent man down in the post? T-Mac was sensational and I remember his All-Star game off the backboard free throw dunk!! In game!!! 6-9 forward who had the scoring touch of a Michael Jordan, could eventually win a ring and balled every night. If he had a longer playing career, I'd put him on Lebron level because his game was like Scottie Pippens
"Adonal Foyle! Oh the bastard is out of retirement." It still amazes me how he got mentioned in Game of Zones. He and Tim Duncan are the only ones to make it to Game of Zones, unless I'm mistaken. LOL
You forgot to mention that Ron Mercers most memorabe moment was when he played for Bulls and old Jordan playing for Wizards block him from behind with two hands.
Yeah. Billups was underrated. His career became a lot better in later years. He was my father's favorite player. And Timmy was my favorite player that time. I didn't know that Timmy took 4 years in college before he came to the NBA. That's rare for most players. Great info.
You forgot to mention the All The Smoke podcast Stephen Jackson is doing with Matt Barnes. I really enjoy it and that was where Kobe did his last ever interview.
Andy I would love if you did a video on the Jailblazers. It would be interesting to hear all the behind the scenes stories of their dysfunction because they were so talented. I dont think they had deep playoff runs but that has a lot to do with their overall chemistry.
Jail blazers should have won a title....they blew a 15pt 4th quarter lead to the Lakers in game 7 of wcf’s. They went on to win first of their 3peat and that was the end of jail blazers. That game also ended Scottie pippen. Had he won a title that year his legacy would be different
Interesting but a bit sad you didn't speak about other relevant players: Scott Pollard and his haircuts, Anthony Parker who had a reliable game and a long career in Europe, Tariq Abdul-Wahhad who was the first Frenchman to be drafted and play for a NBA team, paving the way to Parker, Diaw, Pietrus, Batum, Gobert, Fournier and many others. Some of these later selections had interesting stories even though they didn't have great careers
Anthony Parker somehow had a decent career as a role player with the Cavs and Raptors. Austin Croshere was the most overpaid among these guys. Brevin Knight’s not that really good in scoring, but made it up for his steals and somewhat decent passing abilities.
It's pretty common in all sports - if there is a stacked draft class one year, the next year will be pretty lean. Usually. The 2012 and 2013 NFL Draft comes to mind. But the 2017 draft was loaded, and so was 2018. So there's one example bucking that trend.
4:20 Van Horn had serious skills! Not many PF had that shooting touch in that era. The guy could rebound and score stylishly. He was called to be "the best white player after Bird" (LOL these comparisons...) Had tremendous potential, I think injuries slowed him down a lot.
Yo it would be dope af if Andy made a vid about the 83 sixers, one of the most underrated teams of all time. 65 wins, the memorable "fo fo fo" from moses malone, a championship, one of 2 of the only teams in the 80s that one a championship besides magic and bird, forgotten legends that need more recognition like Moses Malone,Julius Erving, Maurice Cheeks,Bobby Jones, and a team that needs more recognition to the public and need more exposure. It would be dope If Andy made a vid about them, just a suggestion
As an isreali. I could say anthony parker (pick 18) is the greatest international player in israeli basketball, while he lead maccabi tel aviv to win the euroleague 3 times in the previous decade, continued by 5 years in the league as a veteran
Lets see, Van Horn had a few good years, went to the Finals with the Nets back to back. Would have been a better player and career if he went to the Celtics. Other notable players were Ron Mercer, Derek Anderson, and Tim Thomas.
Andy Hoops, Can you do some perspectives on forgotten NBA stars? Glenn Robinson, Jamal Mashburn, Jerry Stackhouse, Fat Lever, Rashard Lewis, Mark Aguirre, Alex English, Ron Harper, Terry Cummings, Orlando Woolridge, World B Free, Michael Ray Richardson, Rolando Blackman, Bernard King, Purvis Short, Calvin Natt, Davod Thompson, Mychal Thompson, Norm Nixon
Dude you undersold Duncan. "Won't cover his whole career because we all know how "good" he was". Good is an understatement for the GOAT power forward. You mean great.
I remember most of the players. This draft class was in my first NBA game. Most of them was awful. Still, I liked a few of late picks in supporting roles. Bobby Jackson, Anthony Parker, Jacque Vaugn, Marc Blount. Parker was very good in Euroleague and I enjoyed his later years in Toronto. Keith Van Horn was very good. I think he didn't enjoy the game. If he did the Nets could build around him and Kidd.
Ron Mercer started off great, Boston kept him and traded Billups. He was very athletic and could really get to the basket and throw it down, the problem was as time went on he never got better than that.
It’s crazy but I had no idea how horrible this draft was besides the points this man mentioned. Thank God for T Mac and Duncan. Stephen Jackson deserves hell of praise as well.
