Pacers: “ We got a great team”
Lakers: “We got a Shaq”!
And Kobe
@@larrybober6335Kobe didn’t play well in this series Shaq literally carried them in this series. Reggie completely outplayed Kobe in this series. Jalen rose n Austin croshere outplayed Kobe. Kobe played well in game 4 n that was really it. Kobe got hurt n didn’t play at all in game 3. Games 5&6 Reggie completely outplayed Kobe. This series was dominated by Shaq. N Kobe came up big in game 4. He contributed but got thoroughly outplayed by Reggie
Pacers were def the better team, Shaq just unstoppable. Especially when the Pacers won by 33 in game 5.
Dude was massive, athletic and had good footwork, idk what people’s issue was. There’s no such thing as a perfect. Basketball player
@ 2:55 Because after 1997 "massive" dude needlessly looks like he was going to have an aneurysm every time he ran down the court....
@@kingdarkonda1460 true big men were few in number by 2000
@@solomontrump Tim Duncan/Robinson on the spurs, Mutombo on multiple teams, Mourning on the heat, Smits and the Davis on the pacers, Patrick Ewing led the Knicks to finals the year before, Olajuwon was still playing but washed up. You can add Divac on the Kings and Sabonis on the Blazers.
@@marting7848 David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, Hakeem Olajuwon, Vlade Divac, Arvydas Sabonis, Mutombo.
All of these players weren"t in their Prime. Alonzo Mourning suffered from kidney disease and underwent major surgery.
@@allanhouston6759 Mutumbo was the DPOY in 2001 that means best defender in the world dummy. And Baby Shaq put up video game numbers against every single center you named from the 90’s so everything you said is irrelevant. Now drop a peak Shaq into that pool and it just gets worse for them. Man you Shaq haters make me sick! Get a life
Shaq and Kobe Lakers was pretty much the face of the NBA during this time. I just think its a shame nobody ever talks about the Pacers, Reggie Miller was playing his best basketball in my opinion during these Playoffs. This was an amazing Pacers squad, nobody ever really gives Reggie Miller and his Pacers any recognition. He was a great competitor.
Lakers: another era of greatness to go with Showtime, and the great teams of the 60's and early 70's. They now are tied with Boston for most NBA Championships with 17. (Should be 18 but the 'Goin' To Work' crew nearly swept them in 2004. 4 with Shaq and Kobe would have been arguably the best dynasty for a team since the Bulls.
Indiana was on the doorstep of the Finals at least 4 different times in addition to finally breaking through in 2000. It would have been interesting to see how they would have done against the '04 Lakers in the Finals. THAT team was really tough.
Indiana was so good for so long, but ran into great Knicks, Bulls, Lakers, Magic, and Piston teams, all denying them a title. Great team, just could not quite reach the Larry O'Brien Trophy...
Jalen Rose, Mark Jackson and Regiie Miller are all commentators now
Shaq too …🤣
As is shaq and probably kobe would be as well if he wasn't killed in that helicopter crash.
Jalen Rose is an analyst, not a commentator.
@@angusdog22 Shaq isn’t a commentator he’s an analyst like Jalen Rose. There’s a huge difference!
Kobe would be a team owner if he didn't die
Aahhh...back then when you had to impatiently wait for the score to pop up on the screen...
Helpful comment, I didn't even know they pop on screen lol. I keep skipping it to the end to see the score
It never bothered me I always knew the score somehow. I guess because I was so used to watching it that way
Hated that 😅 just leave it there
Loved it. Bring it back
@@jakerojas4756 for????
Shaq had so many moves . They always want to talk about his size and dominance . The man had finesse in spades . Jordan may be the GOAT 🐐 but Shaq was the unicorn 🦄
2:41 shaq jumpshot😳
If this team would play in this era! Like Shaq says BBQ CHICKEN!!! Your not stopping this lakers team!
If this line up will play to this era... They will defeat all teams
the one and only season in his career shaq was 110% focused from preseason through finals
Casual u better use Google lol
Now, this is real basketball! Every play is played hard. Hand checking and bumping were allowed. Almost every play had some physical contact.
it is wild that it is crazy how there was no three pointers, just as far as 2019 (besides the Warriors). The game has changed, folks- and not for the better.
🎯🎯
Missin this kinda game with a Center position playing strong inside the paint but nowadays centers trying to make three's
Its not that they try. They can. Much more skilled and versatile than these monsters. Because of that we have more slashers and dunkers that shine. Kinda like russ
So you dont like it when players can do more things and become overall more skilled?
@@ballinboxer3676 not when your a center. Center should be playing down low high % shots.
@@epakerd why should they? Why shouldn't they evolve their game?
@@epakerd buy when you have a center than can shoot the offense becomes unbearable and shoots the opposing team out the game
Post game, mid range, slashing, and 3 point shooting. This is how the basketball court is supposed to be used, not just jacking up 3s
Loved that Pacers team but Reggie wasn't getting a ring that season Shaq was monster in 2000
My Loved Shaq
Good to see Chandler Bing smiling here. RIP matthew perry Kobe Bryant
Chris rock not knowing that 22 years from now will smith was gonna smack him at the oscars🤦🏽♂️😂😂
if you can't tell it was staged then i have no hope for you lol
@@JohnjOcampo Could you present your evidence that it was staged?
@@Dr.AutismGod you gotta watch the vid in slowmo, chris positions himself right as will is about to slap him. Facial expression also shows he was expecting it. Someone did a really good vid on it, should be on youtube.
2:43, Shaq had a jumper?
guess so
Casual shaq broke wrist senior year high school didn't heal well that why never bend his wrist that why poor free throw shooter
Can't believe it took until the Pistons for Phil Jackson to lose in the playoffs. The Bulls and Lakers had some fierce competition every year, including this Pacers team.
Miller and Shaq went 8-8 head to head in the playoffs with Shaq winning 2 of the 3 playoff series including this championship..
Shaq never had a 50pt playoff game. That's insane
Only because he couldn’t shoot
@@kenzoo8657 Even if he could 50 point games were more rare in this era. Slowest pace in nba history this era is the reason why the nba has sped up so much
No he have teammates reason wilt didn't win many chips when u score that much teammates just watching
Mark Jackson was a wizard with that rock! 🔥
They played better with Travis best on the floor I thought vs the Lakers and bulls
Shaq 🔥🥵
When I saw how many points Shaq got you have to say he is one of the greatest Centers ever
Lakers getting them Tim Donaghy calls
There was only one major rule for other teams in the NBA for about a 5 year period... DO NOT LET SHAQ GET DEEP POST POSITION. Once he got there, you could collapse 5 guys on him and it didn't matter.
5 years? Shaq beasted from day one.
I feel like this was his most impressive year
Shaq was better than Kobe. Young people have to watch how Shaq literally won titles for Kobe back in the days. He was consistently MVP for a reason
Lmaooo
Over a career no. But on the 3 peat teams absolutely.
Crazy how this Pacers team never made it back to the finals after this loss… they were pretty close before the whole malice at the Palace debacle
The Lakers won that game because they had better defensive and offensive rebounds. I think if Jalen Rose would have played more minutes it would have been a closer game
What a tremendous play by Mark Jackson @3:05!
Shaq avg 38 points n 17 rebounds n almost 3 blocks 😂 Kobe avg 15 on 36 percent shooting. Shaq definitely carried this team in this series. Kobe delivered in game 4 though
What many Kobe haters refuse to talk about is that Jalen Rose purposely tripped Kobe as he was landing after hitting a jumper in game 2. (Rose has admitted to this)
Kobe went out with a sprained ankle but played the rest of the series on it.
The injury threw Kobe's shot off for the rest of the series, so he focused on defense.
@@canalesworks1247Exactly, I rarely hear Kobe detractors mention this when they blindly compare his stats. Obviously, Shaq was clearly the best player on the Lakers. This is prime Shaq who had a top 3 peak for any player of all time. Shaq won 3 FMVPs and rightfully so, however Kobe was great in 2001 and 2002. I’ve heard this same argument used against Curry. We know Iggy wasn’t the best player on the Warriors in 2015, but he won the FMVP. The difference is that Shaq actually earned those FMVPs and was just THAT dominant during that 3 peat. Kobe wasn’t in his prime yet with the Lakers, but he was still a star after his first few seasons and until his last few seasons in the league before retirement.
@@HugoSoup57 Also it's really hard to compare eras. The defense in the dead ball era was brutal. LeBron just hasn't taken the ame punishment as Kobe or even Shaq. The big fella had bad feet by their third championship, arthritis due to injuries etc. Hack a Shaq wore him down.
@@HugoSoup57 so that means shaq carried kobe to his 1st ring, since kobe was not in his prime yet and shaq was, you just said it
Brilliant game from Shaq.
Brilliant series by Shaq also
The real NBA Finals that year was Lakers vs Blazers
The wat shaq carried kobe in this series is crazy
Shaq at his peak
Most dominant player ever
nah
Definitely up there.
2000 was the most dominant year for any player start to finish.
@@stellarwind1946 you could argue 2011-2012 or 2012-13 from LeBron, 1990-91 or 1991-92 Jordan and 1970-71 from Kareem (Lew Alcindor at the time)
Wilt in 1961-1962
07:12 rip Matthew perry
Murray and jokic getting their first ring this year… remember this
aged perfectly, I personally saw it coming when warriors were struggling to beat them in games 3-5, I knew if murray was there they win a ring in 2022
That lakers team was stacked
It would have been interesting to see how this team would have done in the 80s and 90s when the golden age of centers were all still in their primes. Sure some were still playing in 2000, but they were pretty much all over the hill. 2000 Shaq vs '94 Hakeem would likely have been the greatest center battle since Wilt vs Russell.
Hakeem would of still toyed with him
@@illmatic826 I do think it would have largely played out out how '95 played out, though I think the series overall would have been much closer, possibly going 7.
Peak Hakeem couldn’t handle baby 22yr old Shaq in 95 he has absolutely zero chance against peak Shaq. Baby Shaq forced Hakeem to play PF in game 1 and game 3 sometimes because he couldn’t guard him. Shaq was doubled 78% of the time while Hakeem was only doubled 68% of the time. Shaq outplayed Hakeem in game 1, game 2 was even and so was game 3. After the first 3 games Hakeem avg 32/10/5 on 46% shooting baby Shaq avg 29/12/7 on 60% shooting. The only game Hakeem was better was in game 4 when the Magic team already were on vacation. 2001 Shaq destroyed the DPOY Mutumbo like he was a ghost. It don’t matter who you bring up nobody is messing with peak Shaq not NOBODY!
@@Noin007 lay off the crack
@@illmatic826 lay off the crack
7:12 Chandeler！！！
Shaq triple teamed and still UNSTOPABLE
GOATS
I hate the Lakers (Kings Fan)....butt dang they were good.
But*
That post move by Mark Jackson is probably not even mentioned here, but here we go! @3:09
7"1 ( 350 ) Shaquille O"Neal is the greatest Center of all-time.
Prime Shaq is a beast. No one can carry Kobe to 3 championships.
@@alp6675 shaq fouled out in game 4 against the pacers, Kobe took over in overtime and put the lakers up 3-1
2nd... Hakeem is.
He’s not 7’1. Wilt was 7’1 n if u see them next to each other wilt is clearly taller n what’s crazy just as big.. Shaq I’d say is 6’11 1/2
@@melvincuaresma-SWyeah that’s about all Kobe did in this series he played great in game 4.. he was a complete bum the rest of the series. Reggie completely outplayed him. Jalen rose outplayed him. Even croshere had a little better scoring numbers. Avg about the same but croshere much better shooting percentage. Shaq carried them in this series
Considering Stern wanted the Lakers to get past the Kings being a fact, it clouds 🌧️ a little of that fantastic 3peat
Casual what kings have do with pacers in 2000
SHAQ KOBE💜💛🏀💜💛🏀
Time for Indiana Pacers to win the first ever NBA IN SEASON Tournament final tomorrow night against the Los Angeles Lakers in Las Vegas, Nevada State, U.S.A and avenge their defeat to the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2000 NBA Finals back then. Peace...
showtime lakers dynamic duo kobe and shaq
Damn, I forgot AC Green was still playing this series.
shaq was op
After the 90s mj era Knicks and pacers tried to have atleast 1 ring
Nobody to guard shaq, if he was in shape he would have scored 60, easy
That is exactly the reason why Shaq is dominant. Because of his size and strenght.
He looks in shape to me.
Casual u don't score 45prs in nba game if not in shape lol damn fools on post
Beast mode
Today’s NBA
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 ........
Im just saying, I would looooove a prime Shaq vs a prime Jokic
Shaq con ese prime en la actualidad los jugadores del equipo contrario todos saldrian por faltas no sabrían como parar este tipo 😂😂
Carried Kobe so hard
For sha
8:56 ShawShaq redemption!
You're welcome.

Lakers vs Kings 2002 G.5 (game winner by Horry)
Game 4 bibby hit the game winner in game 5
Austin Croshie made all his money from this one series
Why was Larry bird’s coaching career so short
They said the warriors can beat this team yeah right.
Shaq said he was 345 lbs in this Finals
I wish he was skinny like he was in Orlando.
Shaq was 270

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
current centres want to shoot threes,who will get the rebounds ,no wonder most of them dont have championships......
Nikola Jokic Finals MVP
softest era in nba history....
@@natecole4486 I disagree
@@Young_Dab jokic didn't jack 3s though, he averaged triple double numbers, you don't get that by being bad at rebounding or standing at the 3 point making plays, he achieved it all from the post
Giannis who??
giannis can do this easily lol
This proves that o'neal is far superior than kobe
Kobe has not reached his prime yet in 2000
Yup. Shaq carried that ass. 😂
Kobe was only 21 here 😂
@@theloverswineverytime1625 Shaq fouled out in game 4 of these finals, Kobe took over in overtime to put the lakers up 3-1, the next game Kobe got hurt and lakers lost that game, and then he came back for game 6 and lakers won the series! So how can Kobe he get carried if the lakers needed Kobe?
that's why Kobe has 5 rings while Shaq only has 4 and how Kobe is above Shaq in all time points huh? 🤡
