True. 😊 Would be better if they enforce the rules though. The best players are incredibly talented and they don't need to walk and carry the ball all the time.

Pete Maravich, Ball Handling and Passing In terms of the modern day 1 or 2 guards (PG and SG) No man was more influential, in a 7 year span he torched the league in route to changing the game of how you can bring a little flash to the game. His court vision is with Magic, with his behind the back plays, underhanded high velocity half court passes, behind the back passes, athletic steals that led to scoring in transition. Also, his fluidity on how he moved with the ball was then copied and improved upon by every player after him. His shooting ability was second to none, Pete had the SMOOTHEST mid-range jump shot. Being able to chuck up shots quickly, and damn near hit over 50% of them. He also did this on 2 horrid knees, genetics he inherited from his family. Which cut his promising career short.

People forget about Pistol and how good he was on court. Bird and Magic was on record saying they got some of their move from Pistol. And no, Bird was one of the first shooting big, like Magic was one of the passing big.
hey thanks for the dirk love dont let people forget he is an all-time great...he proved you can win it all with a jump-shooting big man as your best player and you know without dirk there would be no KD.
You all forgot the original GOAT George Mikan! They added the Shot Clock and widened the lane from 6’ to 12’ all because of Mikan. Not to mention 7 championships in 8 seasons. Also the Logo himself Jerry West. Mr Triple Double Oscar Roberts. Pistol Pete Maravich. Some might say the League was weaker back then, if there wasn’t a “weaker” league there wouldn’t be what we have today.

Hey Nonstop Sports. I like this list. But you should have also added George Mikan, Bob Cousy , Bill Russell, Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, Larry Bird too. They were very instrumental to the game of Basketball. Mikan is the person who revolutionised the Center position. Shaq said it best" Without number 99 there is no me" . Bob Cousy set the standard for a great Point Guard. Russell changed the game from a horizontal one to a vertical one. Elgin was the first high flying artist. He is the one who inspired DR. J. Jerry West revolutionised the Jumpshot Bird showed you can strike fear into the hearts of the opponent by staying outside the three point line. Other than this video is great. Great content.
MJ made the NBA and basketball, in general, a worldwide sport. Yao Ming made basketball extremely popular in China. Kobe's Mamba mentality inspires and pushes young athletes to play harder every day. Steph Curry made the modern NBA shoot more 3's than ever before. Giannis is proving to the world that a European player can be the face of the league (Dirk still on top though).
I feel like if you put Magic on this list you need to put Larry Bird, yes Magic I think had a bigger impact but they both saved the nba and what other player just decides to play left handed for the rest of the game and score 40 points. But besides that great video! Great information to!
Wilt changed the game so much, he changed the paint rules so much also in ft having the rule that the ball should touch the rim first before the player could move from the line
You forgot George Mikan who found the big man position and you forgot Elgin Baylor who was the first athletic wing of all time. But it was a good video.
You forgot Kobe Bryant and how his mamba mentality influence so many players and people around the world to work hard and have strong work ethic and then go out and achieve
@@growingguitar8741 you mean the 8 teams and ending with 12? vs. 30 now? well you are wrong. wilt went up against the highest concentration of HOF players ever in NBA histroy. and he had to play them almost every night. with 8 teams you always had to face the best. and that include the 60s celtics which was the most stacked team of HOFs in their primes for thelongest time with the greatest HOF coach in all of history. MJ played and got all his rings when they actaully in those 8 years added 10-12 teams to the league and weer weak so it w as way easier. not to mention they changed the rues to make it easier fo rhim to dominate, they changed the rules to make it harder for wilt. MJ would have been called for traveling all the time in the 60s, double dribble,s carrrying, shaq would have 6 offenisve fouls be 3 minutes intheo the 2nd quarter lterally every game.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 Exactly my point. Without George Mikan, basketball might not be the game it is today. He was the first to average 30 points a game for an entire season and the first to lead his team, the Minnesota Lakers, to three consecutive titles. He should be the first name among those who changed the game.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 I erred when I neglected Kenny Sailors, the man who invented the jump shot. He changed the game more than anybody besides Naismith.
Wilt wasn't alley ooping his freethrows to himself, he was dunking them from behind the ft line because time before he even got into college self alleyooping the ball off the backboard was already outlawed in NCAA and NBA. In 1956 (Wilt's first year in college) the NCAA changed the rule that stated that you can,t touch the flor infront of the ft line before shooting the ball to having to shoot the ball from inside the semicircle, and the NBA did the same exact change (from not touching the floor infront of the ft line before shooting to having to shoot from behind the lane) in the offseason after Wilt's first year, though both Wilt and his coach Neil Johnston thought the change had already been done by the time Wilt arrived to the league so he didn't try it once in the NBA, and while in college he could only try it in a practice because Kansas State (the other Kansas college) coach Ted Winter saw Wilt try it at least once in practice and rushed the NCAA commitee to change the rule before Wilt played a single NCAA game. And there are articles on this topic. Also the rule about inbounding over the backboard was changed for the NCAA and NBA while Wilt was in college. And fun fact Wilt was using the one legged fadeaway every game in the 60s, because it was his go to move when he was outside the paint in the left side of the court, but he mainly bankshotted it
when you say the floor, well your verbiage is a little different. i always just said he took a step and a half to 2-3 stps max jumped and dunked while holding the ball so that would fall in line with your saying he didn't throw it to bounce it off and dunk. did you mean you can't land on the floor? i think that migh tbe the case I also mentoind in my first comment on this page that wilt patended and created teh fadewaway 60 percent of his shots were. also, wilt at time had a hook shot, not necessarly sky hook but similar to a degree, he also had a finger roll and a few others. and with his strength if he wanted to be shaq he would have way out shaq'ed shaq, but then again offensive foul rules were very heavliy called and he could not even try it.
@@Randcun thats why Jordan in 80s lost 5 rings to 40 years Jabbar and Wilt beat prime Jabbar 1972 . If Giannis can play once 40 mpg he would be retired in this soft era where nobody play defense or bully rules
Shaq is left out as the league changed the material of the rim and many other changes like most teams used to put shaq on the free throw line, to stop him.
Before LeBron, great team were made by drafts and trades by front office, coaching and players. Now thankd to Lebron, great teams are made out of thin air by star player’s social skills and friendship.
Iverson EASILY the most influential NBA player ever. He changed the rules, he changed the culture, changed the style of play and he changed the reputation of short players.
Michael Jordan the GOAT he never lost in the finals and he never had to have another superstar from another team join him to win all 6 of his titles and he never had to leave the Bulls to win his titles played sick to his stomach in the 1997 NBA finals and still pulled off a victory against the jazz in utah many other superstars would have sat out and not even played but not Jordan he pushed himself he battled both his sickness and the Jazz that's how tough he is to beat.
Jeff Assassin, Bill Russell won 11 titles and went 11-0 in finals he was healthy for. Never had to leave the Celtics for a title either. Never had someone else from another team join him either. So by the logic you used for Jordan it would put Russell as GOAT. Now I know as a Jordan fanboy you will move the goal posts to get Jordan over Russell, but your logic here does not put Jordan on top.
Everything about that warriors/kings series was amazing. The narrative of it especially, you had a young team that hadn’t been to the playoffs since 2006 vs the reigning champ and kinda dynasty. Steph breaking a record, steph and fox putting up spectacular numbers. Easily the best series of the entire playoffs
I wasn’t a fan way back then, but how did people feel about KG going to the Celtics with Pierce and Allen? I’m curious was to how people viewed that and why LeBron was the first one to show what power superstars have. Maybe it’s because he’s such a bigger name I don’t know
Shaq should be in there. Strictly talking changing basketball in NBA so for me the list is this: Wilt - bunch of rule changes Dr. J - excitement and explosion in games MJ - change of strategy to wing, athletic players for game wins Shaq - a dominant center to win / strengthening of rims for power dunks Dirt - stretch 4s and NBA globalization (great players from other countries given more chance in NBA) Lebron - player mobility Steph - 3 point revolution and analytics Sorry Magic and Iverson.. Though they were great and exceptional, I think they did not have enough influence to change the game. They are like an anomaly in the matrix, a one-off. The best i can think close to magic is ben simmons and to AI is IT of boston but u did not see the NBA looking for someone like Magic or AI.
Louis Dampier is missing. He was the reason the ABA was 3 point crazy, and after the merge exported that TO the NBA. It took the NBA over 20 YEARS to catch up to his 1967-1968 and 1968-1969 3 pointer numbers. He's also the ONLY top 3 point shooter ever that MATCHED his best year almost identically - ONE HIT OFF from his best year to his second-best, though that second-best year was more efficient. Also keep in mind, the ABA 3 point shot was 25 feet except the corners, NOT the wimpy 22' 9" (or 22' 3" for a few years in the early 1990s) of the NBA.
Cause of curry every man is shooting from all over the place , cause of Iverson we have dudes like Irving and Jamaal Crawford doing hesitation dribbles and lastly LeBron cause dude taught is that u can guard multiple postions u can play multiple postions
That's right! Philly's own Wilt Chamberlin! THE GOAT. All others are just kids. Wilt was such a great athlete he made team USA in Volleyball. AFTER he retired from the NBA.

Yessir speak it into existence
Wilt Chamberlain 55 rebounds 34 points what !
Shaq is left out as the league changed the material of the rim and many other changes like most teams used to put shaq on the free throw line, to stop him.
Tim Duncan is my favorite. Followed by Olajawon and Bill Russell
Isiah Thomas is underrated he was the first "scoring PG"
He's good but he's not the first scoring pg that's wilt fraizer
NOPE !!
NATE ARCHIBALD LED NBA IN PPG AND APG. GROW UP KID U STILL YOUNG
James Harden with his fouling skill changed the rule of the NBA
Before LeBron, great team were made by drafts and trades by front office, coaching and players. Now thankd to Lebron, great teams are made out of thin air by star player’s social skills and friendship.
Ai is my favorite play of all time but you forgot Steve Nash he changed the game with his shooting
I didn’t even watch yet😂first time being early
Excellent job!
I was early without knowing😂😂😂🤣🤣
Iverson EASILY the most influential NBA player ever. He changed the rules, he changed the culture, changed the style of play and he changed the reputation of short players.
God is Great and Jesus is King 🤴🏼🤴🏼🙏🏻👑🛐
Love watching ur vids!
Michael Jordan the GOAT he never lost in the finals and he never had to have another superstar from another team join him to win all 6 of his titles and he never had to leave the Bulls to win his titles played sick to his stomach in the 1997 NBA finals and still pulled off a victory against the jazz in utah many other superstars would have sat out and not even played but not Jordan he pushed himself he battled both his sickness and the Jazz that's how tough he is to beat.
No shit sherlock lebron a close 2nd and kobe right outside top 5
casual
@@t-bone971 pretty sure your the casual
@@Mwangimusictv you're wrong
Jeff Assassin, Bill Russell won 11 titles and went 11-0 in finals he was healthy for. Never had to leave the Celtics for a title either. Never had someone else from another team join him either. So by the logic you used for Jordan it would put Russell as GOAT. Now I know as a Jordan fanboy you will move the goal posts to get Jordan over Russell, but your logic here does not put Jordan on top.
Everything about that warriors/kings series was amazing. The narrative of it especially, you had a young team that hadn’t been to the playoffs since 2006 vs the reigning champ and kinda dynasty. Steph breaking a record, steph and fox putting up spectacular numbers. Easily the best series of the entire playoffs
It’s bothers me that people still don’t know how to pronounce Dirk Nowitzki’s last name
...and not one mention of George Mikan. Interesting.
💕 love non sports
Dissipointed that u missed the Detroit bad boys cant lie I was shocked u messed that up.
I wasn’t a fan way back then, but how did people feel about KG going to the Celtics with Pierce and Allen? I’m curious was to how people viewed that and why LeBron was the first one to show what power superstars have. Maybe it’s because he’s such a bigger name I don’t know
Shaq should be in there. Strictly talking changing basketball in NBA so for me the list is this:
Wilt - bunch of rule changes
Dr. J - excitement and explosion in games
MJ - change of strategy to wing, athletic players for game wins
Shaq - a dominant center to win / strengthening of rims for power dunks
Dirt - stretch 4s and NBA globalization (great players from other countries given more chance in NBA)
Lebron - player mobility
Steph - 3 point revolution and analytics
Sorry Magic and Iverson.. Though they were great and exceptional, I think they did not have enough influence to change the game. They are like an anomaly in the matrix, a one-off. The best i can think close to magic is ben simmons and to AI is IT of boston but u did not see the NBA looking for someone like Magic or AI.
Can you do how good was Kawhi Leonard actually or David Robinson two of my fav players and if not keep putting out 🔥 content👊💪
To early to make that kind of video about kawhi.
Kawhi still in the league so no to that but for muscle man i like the idea
What about kareem abdul jabbar?
Magic but no Larry Bird? Come on.
Strongest /fastest nba players of all time
1. IVERSON GOD
2. WESTBROOK PRE BEVERLY HURT HIM
3. JOHN WALL PRIOR INJURIES
4. MAXEY FROM PHILA
Only viable list: Curry, KD, MJ, Wilt, Lebron
I'm so confused why Kobe, Larry Bird, Shaq and Kareem weren't on the list
i mean u couldve made it "12 players who changed basketball forever"
Bill Russell,Bob Cousy, Oscar Robertson,Pete Maravich
I feel like Magic Johnson and Larry Bird should have been one things. Their rivalry help save the NBA when it needed saving.
You forgot to mention Zsa Zsa Pachulia. Because of him they changed the calculation format for all star voting.
I might be wrong I think Bill Russell should be on the list because of his defense and blocks
Wilt was like playing in Rookie Difficulty scoring 40+ every game with 10+ Rebounds
In the description it says these 10 players but in the title it says 8
Shaq deserves to be on this list.
Louis Dampier is missing.
He was the reason the ABA was 3 point crazy, and after the merge exported that TO the NBA.
It took the NBA over 20 YEARS to catch up to his 1967-1968 and 1968-1969 3 pointer numbers.
He's also the ONLY top 3 point shooter ever that MATCHED his best year almost identically - ONE HIT OFF from his best year to his second-best, though that second-best year was more efficient.
Also keep in mind, the ABA 3 point shot was 25 feet except the corners, NOT the wimpy 22' 9" (or 22' 3" for a few years in the early 1990s) of the NBA.
Steph in 2015 was like a math teacher to the nba
Bill the Hill not here? The greatest defender of all time? The guy who LITERALLY brought the block to the game?
I've never seen anyone stopped Dirk's one legged fadeaway and Kareem's skyhook(other than Wilt)
JABBAR SKY NOBODY USES
no kd? bro is a literal 7ft with very good handle, unblockable 3s, relentless finisher with the post game, easily the best scorer of all time
I would throw Rodman in there on being yourself instead of trying to fit the stereotype of a pro athlete
watch his 30for30 and explain beyond this
U have to add Westbrook with his Triple doubles
Oscar Robertson had triple doubleS b4 as a PG
Never
I love watching your videos
You talk about players who changed the NBA but leave Shaq, Larry Bird, and Kobe.
Cause of curry every man is shooting from all over the place , cause of Iverson we have dudes like Irving and Jamaal Crawford doing hesitation dribbles and lastly LeBron cause dude taught is that u can guard multiple postions u can play multiple postions
you should have added bill russel
You should of added Kobe for being the youngest all star player and for being the youngest rookie player to join the nba
That's right! Philly's own Wilt Chamberlin! THE GOAT. All others are just kids. Wilt was such a great athlete he made team USA in Volleyball. AFTER he retired from the NBA.
And both HOF in Basketball and Volleyball
pound per pound mj is the goat
Shaq and Kobe are on of the biggest duos ever and u didn’t add one of them. You didn’t add KD, Hakeem, Bill Russell, and Tim Duncan.
Kareem I mean the dude had dunking removed for 10 years and he never lost a game in college
Jaylen Brown next video Nonstop Sports 💪💪💪
Thought Shaq would make the list for being huge
I think u should put kobe, mamba mentality, work ethic
