I appreciate these compilations I'm sick of seeing the "dunks but they get increasingly more insane" but then it's just 2 vintage highlights, and then nothing but dunks from the past 2 weeks. I love seeing the deep cut vintage footage. Keep it up! 👍
THANK YOU. Those compilations piss me off because they are the same highlights we see from the NBA RUclips channel from the most recent seasons that are already shoved down our throats.
I'm an old head, I remember that first clip. If you watched basketball back then, Kmart and those JKidd teams were on Sportscenter top 10s on a nightly basis, so you also saw all those "catch" blocks. Kmart was good for empathic plays. He dunked HARD and swatted just as hard.
@LeetheOG89b facts he got no love because he was all defense but as a sf he clears any defensive sf maybe scottie and Bron can make the only arguments for sf defenders
Oh not probably, he is! As you said, he's the only SF ever to average 3 BPG in a season, and did it twice! The only other player 6'9 or shorter to do this was Ben Wallace, but he was a center as we know. Josh Smith came pretty close a few times, btw! AK47 was also very good at steals, and defense in general. He had a super rare combo of length (6'9 but 7'4 wingspan), athleticism (37 inch vert, great speed as well), Instinct/positioning/anticipation (He knew when to leave his man to help, pretty good with avoiding fakes, when/where to jump and so on), and sheer hustle (self explanatory). He was also a pretty good rebounder and passer, and a solid shooter. Also has the 2nd most 5x5s in NBA history with 3, after Hakeem the dream of course, who had 6! (He's my fav center btw). I tend to like all around players who are defensive minded, so when I started getting into basketball around high school in the early 2000s, AK47 quickly became my fav player as he was unique in general but also broke the stereotype of Euro players being shooters who were average or below average athletically and on defense. He was pretty much the opposite, not a great shooter (but a decent one who got better a few years in), but a monster athletically and on defense. I'm glad you gave him props, a lot of people don't know how awesome he was!
@@Zook143 Tay was good, but he never averaged 2 BPG, let alone 3 BPG as a SF! AK47 was an another level :) I just checked his stats, and was surprised to see that he never even averaged 1 BPG! His highest was 0.9, in 04-05, and the most SPG he ever had was 0.8 in 03-04 and 05-06. By contrast, AK47's top 3 BPG seasons were 3.3 in 04-05, 3.2 in 05-06, and 2.8 in 03-04. His top 3 SPG seasons were 1.9 in 03-04, 1.6 in 04-05, and 1.5 a few times. Even if you look at advanced stats like Defensive Box plus minus, it's not even close either. So yeah, no shade on Tay, he was one of my fav players as well at the time- but as I said before- AK was on another level!
Kenyon was an absolute beast from college. Dude played HARD!! Pretty rare to see nowadays. Players today have zero intensity. Finesse and athleticism is all they have. Can’t teach heart and hustle.

Great mix, blocks are my favorite NBA play, watching and also in real life :) Glad to see Andrei "AK47" Kirilenko in here! He's the only SF ever to average 3 BPG in a season, and did it twice!

@@aedaed3605 Indeed! I started a franchise on 2K with all time players and my starting lineup is C-Embiid, PF-AK47, SF-Kawhi, SG- Drazen Petrovic, PG- Steph Curry, so far we are 55-10 :)
I Was Surprised U Didn't Add Any Footage Of Ben Wallace Blocking Shots He Was A BEAST In The Paint A Topnotch Shot Block No Doubt But I Enjoyed The Video As Well That New Jersey Team Brought Me Good Memories!!😊 👍
I appreciate these compilations

Thx for watching Evan, glad you enjoyed!!! 😁

Do a dive tru see secr
K-Mart was a real Savage with them 2- handed blocks 🔥🔥🔥
9:48 caught me completely off guard 😂
Bro I don't know how or where you're getting these clips but don't stop, they're fire
Thx for watching Tibor, glad you enjoyed!!! 😁
Fr lol
On me getting these from the vault lol
True story
Martin was allways up there even in college dude played d for real
Leonard at the end got me good off guard 😭🤣🤣🤣
The throwback Nets clips are fire. Watching that team run wild after Vince joined was a treat.
All my older heads know Kenyon Martin used to swat every thing. Lol if you’re wondering where Kenyon Martin jr. Got his bounce from… lol
Kenyon was an animal! And his dunks be crazy too
Receiving one of those 2-handed blocks must be a heartbreaking experience

That was the original Lob City. Carter, Jefferson, and KMart running the floor and Kidd passing. That team was fun to watch.
Grant Hill cursing!?😂 “ gimme that SHIT!” 5:14
K-Mart 🔥🔥
That Ended To Video Was Pure Gold 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ak47 is probably the best shot blocking small forward of all time we've never seen a sf average 3 blocks a game ever again after he did it
Very underrated all around player
@LeetheOG89b facts he got no love because he was all defense but as a sf he clears any defensive sf maybe scottie and Bron can make the only arguments for sf defenders
tayshaun prince was the best.

Keynon martin 🔥🔥
Cincinnati bearcats
Thats balling
I love that nets team. Team with some crazy offensive/defensive highlights. Too bad the fell short.
KMart mane!
I literally spat my food out on the kawhi part. 🤣🤣🤣
Those give-it-to-me blocks from KMart, amazing

Kenyon was average at best , he’s 21 skunked by any player today
@@Xhabit300
Lay off the booze
@@simonhowell4486 career average of 12 points and 9 rebounds …. Oh and he CANT shoot

It's actually nice to see stuff from the early/late 2000s. Most of these channels only show stuff from the past 5-10 years.
Grant Hill’s block had me lit!
Gimme dat shit
Love it. First 2 minutes is a Kenyon Martin highlight reel.
Im like 3 minutes in, thinking “Are these all Nets clips??”
Those Nico blocks are awesome!
Hope nothing but continued success for you if you to decide to keep doing this, this is great
Thx for always supporting this channel Josh, much appreciated! 😁
Good ol days where you can celebrate and show emotion without the tech
The nets was goin crazy😂
Kenyon martins blocks are crazy
3:08 that is actually the loudest block i have ever heard sounds like batum served in a volleyball match or sth LOL
bro making these videos idk what vhs u got this from but keep going in Khaled voice
K Mart and Big Ben were monsters
K-Mart was different. 🏀. 🗣️ welcome to the NBA Mr D. Wade
That help defense 🔥🔥
Yeah we don't see that anymore
Kawhi laugh caught me off guard 😭
kidd gets a lot of credit for the success of that nets team, however they were known for their d and kmart was the anchor of that d.
Hope Kenyon Jr. would learn some tricks from his dad on D. Would definitely help the Rockets now...
9:48 💀💀💀
Wouldn't be highlights without Nick Batum, must be a cousin.🤔
The kawhi thing got me hah
Dammit I spit out my drink at that Kawhi Leonard cut
Best nba videos on RUclips
Martin was a fun player to watch.

Those kmart blocks were ridiculous. It's so difficult to time those and catch them like that, theres a reason you rarely see blocks like that.
After tim Duncan blocks you:
😐
So great to watch underrated highlights that not so popular in NBA highlights
Man... These are gold. Keep uploading oldschool basketball man 🔥
Kmart is a real beast during his rookie year
He was a beast for a good 10-year stretch.
K-Mart was a beast!
I nearly pissed my pants from the unexpected Kawhi laugh
K-Mart was a dog bruh! I loved dude growing up.
Great video love these older clips
9:31 “I got ya son” 😂
Kenyon Martin was out there blocking shots like this was NBA Streets Vol 2 or sumthin 🤷🏿♂️
I Was Surprised U Didn't Add Any Footage Of Ben Wallace Blocking Shots He Was A BEAST In The Paint A Topnotch Shot Block No Doubt But I Enjoyed The Video As Well That New Jersey Team Brought Me Good Memories!!😊 👍
Check out Part 2 🔥
Congrats RJ! Batum, I didn't know you had those hops. Aminu is looking good.
You were one of the best bball channel on youtube. Keep it up
8:41 Melo on scalabrine GET THAT SHIT OUTTA HERE
This is when defense was played. Rip to old Era 😪
The first few clips are the nets Kmart they used to go crazy
as a clippers fan i love wut im seeing from batum
At 1st I thought this was a Kenyon Martin compilation
Dam thats worsted than being dunked on
nice video bro!!
Kmart was savage
wow I've never actually seen theses blocks before...
1:40 Is that a Block or Rebound? hahaha!
Man, I can't remember the last time I saw a Charlotte bobcats highlight lol
Ya fam I’m gonna have to subscribe
That LeBron block was nasty if it counted.
Kenyon Martin great blocker idol❤
9:48 lmfao
I really never did see any of these before
K-Mart highlight real
Signature block by KMART: BLOCK AND CATCH
I love how the first 5 are from the NJ Nets and 4 of them and Kenyon Martin😂
Kenyon Martin is the founder of snatch blocks😂😂😂
I really admire KM competition spirit
Todays players would fall on the floor and look at the ref.
No surprise VC joined that Nets team. Kidd, Martin, Rich J, Van Horn... That team was packed. Too bad they couldn't win any rings 😵💫
Kmart got the hops
1:03 this was actually in the NBA 2k3 intro... Remember like yesterday.
Lol. That shit with Artest is hilarious. I'm going to shoot it because Kobe's never going to pass me the ball.agaim...
A healthy Dwight Howard was so athletic 🤧
Two hands 😂
5:13 Gimme that shit
I guess I just watched a ton of NBA games back then because I have seen more than half of these defensive plays
A past art in NBA history
Defense
This man was doing snatch blocks before they was called snatch blocks
all the nba "gimme that shit" moments you forgot happened.
That was a goal tend, the first block. If you look at the ball, it had stopped going up. He waited till it was barely starting to fall.
😮😮😮 0:02
This is called access denied like right now and I mean like right damn now
This NJ nets back then at one point have been to the finals...they were just too small for Shaq's Lakers..
‘4th quarter screaming why tf Batum in’
First one is definitely goaltending
this vid males me realize how much KJ looks lile Kenyon
