Rick Fox was a dawg tho shout out to him I miss that Laker squad from the early 2000s. Liked it better than the Kobe led Lakers and the Bron led Lakers for sure and even more than the Magic and Kareem Lakers. I think that era of the Lakers had the most talent.
and shaq's big ass would give up a bunch points on pick and rolls and on the fast break he would be a defensive liability against that lethal kd warriors team
If those lakers guards besides kobe played against steph, kd and klay running around circles all night long yeah they'd be gassed, plus a massive hole on Lakers defense cuz shaq is on the court lol it's always going to be an open shot for either klay, steph and kd, in 2017 and 2018 teams that's dedicated to slow those three down couldn't do shit, imagine a pretty much 4vs5 situation in almost every position where shaq is on the court. 3s would rain down on the Lakers.
@@Rell559they’d have to shoot like 70-90% from 3 because on the other side Shaq is a guaranteed 2 points and sometimes an AND1 and then that opens up Kobe’s game to put who ever is guarding him foul trouble. It’s almost impossible unless you have an elite elite center to shutdown this Lakers team
@scamlikely7814 with wide open shots every possession they might as well make above 50% of their 3 point shots, and if shaq is a guaranteed bucket then why bother put too much effort against him? That's just fucking dumb, warriors could do the opposite of "anyone can score but him" Defense, choking up kobe while letting shaq score, hell warriors could even foul the living shit out of shaq if they want to since they have two big guys that could give him hard fouls but play within warriors offense, the same exact tactic that almost give lakers the massive L back in 2002 but instead of a grit and grind offense of the kings, it would be faster, much more tiring and exhausting for a lakers team that's centered around a man to man defense because shaq must be glued 10 feet or below from the basket.
If they had a rule that if you repeat the same thing more than three times in a row your mic got muted, there would be no one left talking by the end of the show.
People forget most games Curry, KD and Klay weren't even playing in the 4th quarter due to their blowouts. So they averaged less ppg, imagine if they finished games.
Bro I was listening on Spotify .I had to come leave a comment, he us horrible for a sports show..he debates like a kid. He's like the "I know you are but what am I " kid in a roasting session
Gil: Nick you never seen Shaq play Nick: ofc I’ve seen him play. I’m a Lakers fan. I watched the screen like you watched the screen. We both saw an old ass Shaq. Dying…🤣🤣🤣
Yeah that 2000 team was loaded shaq , kobe ,Horace grant , ac green, Robert Horry, Devin George, Derek Fisher, Brian shaw , Ron harper , Rick fox , ty lue that bench was deep as fuck with 3 ball shooters
Maybe. You’re opinion. But it’s all on paper. No body would know unless it’s played. I say 72-10 bulls beat them all. It’s not just saying this matchup and that. It has to be played and schemed. I roll with any team that has Jordan on it. I do agree that Shaq is a problem for anyone, but it’s more than that
How tf do that make sense when he cant shoot freethrows tf yall think gon change about shaq game in this era? Yall slow or something? They fouled him the whole game back then just the same as they would now and he would average the same now.

And out run and shoot the lakers with Curry shooting deep and moving without the ball and using great ball movement will be very tough for those lakers teams since they faced archaic offense during those finals except the 2004 pistons and 2002 kings.

I research their 3pt. Shooting, but pretty sure they just took long twos and Phil Jackson ripped their style with Gasol Kobe lakers. But Thibido 08 Celtics had a great defensive game plan that would not work against the 2016 Warriors because of the spacing and pace.
@@daylonthomas1723 you can't fall in love with the jump shot, no matter who you are, the likelihood of you missing is going to happen, everyone misses..
No lead is safe against that Warriors team at the end of the day.. the easy solution would be for the Warriors to push the pace to the point Shaq can’t even keep up. So when he has to sit, it’s all on Kobe and the Warriors can really run the score up before he even comes back in.
Even if your making all these 3's every possession the game is stopping because Shaq is getting fouled every time. The 3 point shot was the difference maker for Golden State because they were getting stops and make 3's. With Shaq down low they would put the Warriors in foul trouble so they wouldn't be running all game. And for the hoopers out there the game goes fast then slow its hard for you to get in rhythm. On top of that Phil Jackson is running circles around Steve Kerr
Why do keep saying Shaq is getting fouled every time. Refs did not call fouls for Shaq. He was so big that he didn’t get foul calls; refs were awful to Shaq.
LAKERS all day baby!!! warriors are just going to shoot themselves into oblivion. warriors live and die by the three. warriors aint making 30 out 45 attempted threes every game in the finals against the lakers. And yall better put some respect on D Fish's name. Sure Klay and Steph are going to get their looks from three point land but Lakers aint going to make it a cake walk for them. And Phil Jackson aint no dummy. He knows Warriors got no answer for Shaq. So he'll keep having the team toss the ball to the big man down in the post to let Shaq have a field day. Dont even get me started on Kobe. Sure ill give Iggy the flowers of being a great defender... but Kobe being Kobe... he ain't ever let any legit defender stop him ala Raja Bell, Bruce Bowen, Ruben Patterson, Shane Battier, Tony Allen and Tayshaun Prince.

@@christianmorgan5956 Sounds good , but Shaq not knocking down free throws would be a problem. Plus the reason the warriors played fast is because they made the big man come out the paint to guard on the perimeter. Shaq having to do that all night is a problem.
@@christianmorgan5956except the warriors don't need to foul shaq to win. Let him have his TWO's. They are a fast paced team and when they're running up and down the court and around screens, shaq would be gassed out by the forth quarter
Same here but still love the passion. Nick never wanting to answer "whos guarding Shaq" 😂. Kobe getting whatever he wants. KD and lightning-quick-release Klay would be the Lakers biggest hurdle and unless they plan on setting 5 screens for Steph, Fischer will be all over him.
Crazy seeing NBA players argue. . . . Missing the real arguing points. Style of play? The Shaq led Lakers played the halfcourt Triangle offense, throw the ball down to Shaq posting up to start the offense= slower paced offense, less shot attempts, lower scoring output. ** 2003 SA Spurs beat that Lakers team in the WCF 4-2 because they played an uptempo offense. had more scoring opportunities.** The GS Warriors with those players, played an uptempo offense= more shot attemps, more fast break points, more open 3's, less fouling. Shaq becomes more of a liability than an asset, just because of the fast paced Warriors. Prediction? GS would beat those Lakers 4-1, or 4-2 Styles make fights! 💯👑
Nick Young's argument is valid and they didn't want to acknowledge it. If Sacramento took the Lakers to a Game 7 with that roster, imagine changing their PG to SC, SG to Klay and SF to KD. Easy clap
Sacramento had defenders that hustled big time. That year if they went to the NBA Finals they would have won the championship. Also they had Peja and Tokilou. Two of the best 3 pointers in the league that year. Webber at power forward was great and Bibby couldn't miss any shots. Best series we have ever seen
The Rockets took the warriors to game 7 and won because the rockets missed 27 consecutive 3 pointers. Nobody could’ve seen that coming. That’s how the warriors won.
Thay sac team was a problem because all 5 can score and they had multiple shooters starting and coming off the bench with turkoglu and bobby Jackson....Steph can't hide on offense and they would make draymond take a lot of the shots they will play off dray and trap whoever when dray is involve in the pick n roll

Kobe & Shaq was a problem but That warriors team was just unfair. Nobody can beat that team in a 7 game series. Not a chance! The commissioner shouldn't have even let that bs go down💯
The Warriors set the 73-9 all time best winning record, and after that they were allowed to add KD to the team. That's just stupid. In a long line of stupid things the commissioner has allowed to happen.
Lemme guess GSW was unfair bc lebron constantly lost to them😂 kawhi by himself on the spurs had them up by 20 in game 1 not saying they was gone win also cavs big 3 averaged more points then GSW big 3 yall try to rewrite history that GSW team was going to 7 games with the rockets
@@2rawww4tvkd I was one of many who stopped watching NBA basketball, when KD joined the Warriors. Everybody knew the Warriors were going to win the title, and they did win. They kept the same team for the next season, so no point in watching NBA basketball that season either. It saved the NBA that KD and Klay got injured in their 3rd season together, and they split up.
He didn’t really have a retort for why they struggled with an undersized Kings team. That Kings team is more similar to the Warriors than you think too. In ‘02 they definitely got hoed in a heavily scrutinized Game 6. Bring Chris Webber on to talk about that series then we’ll see if ‘Who won’ wins the argument.
@@christopherwilson6615 he did. That Kings team ain't giving GSW no problems. The point was, this idea that if you can't stop Shaq, you lose isn't true
Nick might be the first NBA player with CTE. He sound crazy af talking about Shaq 😂 And the best defender on the floor in any of those series is Kobe. Bruh made 12 All- Defensive teams... that's more than MJ who had 9. Stop sleeping on Bean man
Nick would have won the argument if he knew this. The ONLY reason why the Lakers advanced to a game 7 versus the Kings is because of poor refs. Go look at the documentary on RUclips about the refs! They called it the WORST game EVER officiated in the NBA🤨
Nick Young should have asked Kenyon who was guarding Shaq in the 2002 NBA finals when the kings took the Lakers to 7 games. Warriors with KD and Steph are the best team ever and I don’t like the warriors at all.
It's funny that kenyon brought up rockets missing 27 threes and completely forgets that the refs gave the Lakers 27 free throws in the 4th quarter against the kings 😂
@xDaPrincex I'm talking about the 2002 Lakers. If you haven't seen any videos on it, I would recommend searching one up, the fouls against the kings in the fourth quarter alone were so bad it was hilarious. There's a channel that talks about the 2002 kings and the infamous game 6 against LA. Their channel name is Synthetic sports. It's a good video that you should check out if you get the chance.
And it’s insane that Kenyon is avoiding the fact that it’s been publicized that the officials pretty much purposely threw that game 7 for the lakers to win
That’s cap. They were sat down to show the fouls they were missing and held accountable for it. If you got refs deliberately missing calls and games are being lost, yes you call them out.
@@davidestick9936Nick didn’t deflect at all. Kenyon just realized he didn’t have a point so he kept repeating the same thing. The narrative with the Lakers team is always that nobody could touch them but history says otherwise.
Shaq and kobe isnt enough, 3 beats 2 everytime. The warriors are just gonna rain 3s and break the lakers offense. Shaq is just gonna dunk and get 2 everytime cool, but curry klay or kd is gonna get 3 everytime
Swag won this argument!!!. Old timers always want to use the stats when it works in there favor.. Since they want to use stats, the most important stat is, Warriors avg 116pts per game to the Lakers 106. The Warriors turned the ball over less and shot a higher FG percentage. So if you use the Stats Warriors would win.
can't even use stats to compare these teams, the rules are different, the game is looser today and have way more possessions, that why with these arguments I always ask what rules we playing with, because that matters, for instance the Steve Nash Suns were good but they wasn't the best team in the 2000's, but are probably the best team from that time to put in todays NBA with their style of play
I am 41 yrs old and I have lived in three eras of NBA, 90s, 2000, 2010s. There is no way that warriors KD was going to stop Shaq and Kobe in that three peat run. Basketball is more than just shooting. It's scheme and strategy. Phil Jackson would have shut down KD and force step and klay to beat them. They would have no chance with Kobe and Shaq.
96 bulls beat the Lakers. The x factor in all this is Phill Jackson coaching against himself how would he do that would be amaizing or he is neutral and lets go literaly dream team 92 scrimmages
@@NikolajDragutinov I agree with that. Hard to beat those Bulls teams. I think a team fundamental sound like the spurs that beat Lebron's heat. Would bring a challenge.
I don’t think the triangle would do well against the Warriors switching. Kobe and Shaq would have to play hero ball. No doubt if it’s Shaq, he’s going to have to get all of his points on the free-throw line. 😂
Just like the 04 pistons and Larry browns strategy shut down the lakers and blew them out in some games pretty much with their deffence/psychicall game play, running the clock, team chemistry, that Detroit grid energy would be the same destiny for 2017 golden state warriors and would lose 4-2 easy! Larry Brown also much better coach than Steve kerr.
Depends on what era they play in. If you banking on shaq being an enforcer today he gonna be ejected and lakers getting swept. If we using back then rules It would be a better matchup. The warriors for sure putting shaq in the pick and roll every time. Shaq conditioning wasn’t great so that’s how you attack shaq from scoring and he’s gonna foul.
Fisher knocking down shots Kobe knocking down shots Rick fox knocking down shots Robert horry knocking down shots Devean George knocking down shots Brian Shaw knocking down shots And if you go to that 2000s Lakers team they got Glen Rice and he’s most definitely knocking down shots
That would be a good matchup for the warriors but I still would say KD warriors would beat them. Team was completely busted man. People forget that they still had a bench even with that squad they had. One year they even had demarcus cousins coming off the bench lol it was ridiculous
Gil just wrong, "Kobe gonna roam" no he is not. If you're not on top of Curry at all time especially during off ball Curry gonna drop 40 and if the plan was to guard KD 1v1 he's gonna drop 30 on 14 shots. Forcing GS to shoot jumpers should NEVER be the gameplan of the opposing team.

Yeah Gill is tripping, you can’t roam against that team. Kobe guarding Curry is a bad idea because he’ll be chasing Curry and running through screens all night. Every guard that have to guard Curry, let you know how draining it is.
kenyon just sounded stupid the entire conversation. they acting like it’s not a fact that there was a whole CHEATING REF to help the lakers beat the kings that year.
Nobody can guard Shaq. Nobody can slow him down. Kobe can slow down Steph. Bulls are even worse off for the Warriors. Nobody can guard Jordan. Nobody can slow him down. Jordan, Pippen, Harper can all slow down Steph, and Rodman can slow down KD.
@@reecewilliams8349 I don’t see it. As the 3rd option Klay was averaging 20+ on top of playing defense. 109 defensive rating is better than 106. Prime Peja was nasty but Klay was different.
@19:27 bro talkin about Portland like they wasn’t like that. They were considered one of the deepest teams in NBA history. At least 10 Allstars on one team.
That team doesn’t count to this generation. I believe that team was designed to compete in this era of position less basketball or small ball or whatever ppl want to call it. I remember when they would put the clamps to start the third quarter and do a full court press after every made shot and free throw. They would suffocate the other team with the 3 All-NBA Defensive players (Harper was an underrated defender) and Rodman would definitely get the better of Draymond. The Warriors had KD who is/was incredible so that would’ve been a tough matchup but who on the Warriors team could defend Kukoc? He was the innovator of the smooth shooting bigs. He was 6’11” and had a smooth 3 pointer. It would’ve been a great matchup but that Warriors team wouldn’t beat the 95-96 Bulls
I wish Swaggy would have listened to the "foul out" argument bc I would have been interested in his reply after understanding that. How do you run a game plan in the second half when you are out of 5s and halfway out of 4s?
Please.. please.. someone find out what nick young I.Q test was coming into the league. Bonus find out what the scouts thought about his understanding of the game and how he processed it
Shaq would dominate, but people also forget how Shaq would go ghost for stretches when he was tired, golden state would run, and dominate midrange-3 point land, klay was an elite defender at that time so was iggy, draymond and kd 2 of the best helpside defenders working in tandem it would be a competitive series forsure
@@dariusewing6962 nobody but klay and iggy at that time were both better defenders than 90% of the ppl Kobe faced, who’s guarding KD or Steph who’s chasing klay all game
They dont account for the fouls. Shaq will eliminate the starting lineup with fouls. Let Kobe loose when theyre in the penalty and its freethrow city. Lakers starting lineup vs warriors bench the rest of the game
@@Jackson-dk7pt it's fucks up the rotation. The planned moments for rest will change. The Lakers were usually the more rested team at the end of games. Shooting free throws for 9min in the 4th
The 2018 warriors would win because they’re playing Shaq off the court eventually as ludicrous as that sounds. Defensively, between the pace of play, the spacing created, and forcing him to guard the perimeter until he shows he can consistently do it; they’d wear him down until he was ineffective and blitz Kobe so that he either gets the ball out or takes badly contested shots.
😂😂😂 keep telling yourself the warriors would dictate pace with Shaq on the floor 😂😂😂😂 sorry buddy just not happening the warriors don't have enough body's to play that type of game
Kenyon annoying as hell. Just yelling over Nick the whole time. Who won?!??!? Tripping off his own nuts thinking Steph and Durant aren’t eating. Shaq will miss all his free throws and the warriors come down and make a three, over and over and over.
10:39 Gil so Shaq gnna sit n the paint? U dnt think the warriors gnna have 5 shooters on the floor? So shaq’s man whether it’s west or draymond they can shoot they’ll hit wide open 3’s lol u dnt have to attack Shaq that’s what Nick is saying that warriors squad is gnna work from the perimeter not the paint
Man Shaq is the Difference averaged 3 blocks in the finals. That’s 21 blocks in a game 7. Just seeing 21 blocks in one series would make you think of not dunking on him
@@the_p.s.a6384I doubt that since technically that lakers played against archaic 90s style offense, except the kings and pistons. if the kings nearly beat them what you think Golden State would do? The pistons exposed Shaq on defense in the pick and roll with Chauncey,RRIP, and Sheed taking long twos. Bad match up for the Lakers.
Kenyon knows firsthand that 2021 Lakers as they swept his New Jersey nets. They were unstoppable. They went 15-1 in The Playoffs to win the championship.
They didn't play nobody in 01. Iverson single handedly won a game with Snow, Mckie, Hill, and broken Dikembe 😂 One of their other chips in that run came courtesy of the refs because they would've lost in 6 to a high powered SAC team.
@@johnnybrison4150 lol they didn't play many tough teams and when they did it was very competitive. 02 SAC was the better team, LAL needed refs help to force a game 7. 00 POR nearly took them out and 03 SAS and 04 DET were proven to be better.
61 shots taken at 38% = 23 made = 69 points 29 shots taken at 48% = 13.92 round down 13 = 39 points 30 point difference , what you have to take into consideration is all those fouls slow down the pace of the game and all the physicality trying to defend Shaq equals more fatigue for the Warriors who were undersized which means if you played small ball , Shaq is putting Draymond and KD in foul trouble and there goes your best playmaker and scorer
Id say '96 Bulls, '12 Heat, '08 Celtics, '14 Spurs, '01 Lakers, '11 Mavs could beat them and '04 Pistons n '07 Suns could have a good series against the KD n Steph Warriors
Wit KD, Curry and Klay, there's no need to go to the inside. Let Draymond do his job wit the other centers and do the best they can. They not stopping Shaq or Kobe. But nobody is stopping GSW top 3.

Yo. In that decade, the West was a grind. LA, Portland, Sacramento, Dallas, T Wolves, Utah, San Antonio were the constants. Seattle was in the mix too for the 7 or 8 seed but there were six playoff regulars in the West. Portland was very talented.
Kobe mentioned in an interview with Ernie Johnson how much Shaq would influence this exact match up. He's so dominant that he would bring the game to a stand still and force teams to play slower. Your only option on offense is to try to bring Shaq up out of the key, but then the Lakers could simply run zone and keep Shaq planted near the baseline. Shaq is literally the most dominant for a reason. He would break your team down by himself.

@@daylonthomas1723 you can't fall in love with the jump shot, no matter who you are, the likelihood of you missing is going to happen, everyone misses..
No lead is safe against that Warriors team at the end of the day.. the easy solution would be for the Warriors to push the pace to the point Shaq can’t even keep up. So when he has to sit, it’s all on Kobe and the Warriors can really run the score up before he even comes back in.
Even if your making all these 3's every possession the game is stopping because Shaq is getting fouled every time. The 3 point shot was the difference maker for Golden State because they were getting stops and make 3's. With Shaq down low they would put the Warriors in foul trouble so they wouldn't be running all game. And for the hoopers out there the game goes fast then slow its hard for you to get in rhythm. On top of that Phil Jackson is running circles around Steve Kerr
Why do keep saying Shaq is getting fouled every time. Refs did not call fouls for Shaq. He was so big that he didn’t get foul calls; refs were awful to Shaq.
LAKERS all day baby!!! warriors are just going to shoot themselves into oblivion. warriors live and die by the three. warriors aint making 30 out 45 attempted threes every game in the finals against the lakers. And yall better put some respect on D Fish's name. Sure Klay and Steph are going to get their looks from three point land but Lakers aint going to make it a cake walk for them.

Crazy seeing NBA players argue. . . .
Missing the real arguing points.
Style of play?
The Shaq led Lakers played the halfcourt Triangle offense, throw the ball down to Shaq posting up to start the offense= slower paced offense, less shot attempts, lower scoring output.
** 2003 SA Spurs beat that Lakers team in the WCF 4-2 because they played an uptempo offense. had more scoring opportunities.**
The GS Warriors with those players, played an uptempo offense= more shot attemps, more fast break points, more open 3's, less fouling. Shaq becomes more of a liability than an asset, just because of the fast paced Warriors.
Prediction? GS would beat those Lakers 4-1, or 4-2

Nick Young's argument is valid and they didn't want to acknowledge it. If Sacramento took the Lakers to a Game 7 with that roster, imagine changing their PG to SC, SG to Klay and SF to KD. Easy clap
Sacramento had defenders that hustled big time. That year if they went to the NBA Finals they would have won the championship. Also they had Peja and Tokilou. Two of the best 3 pointers in the league that year. Webber at power forward was great and Bibby couldn't miss any shots. Best series we have ever seen
The Rockets took the warriors to game 7 and won because the rockets missed 27 consecutive 3 pointers. Nobody could’ve seen that coming. That’s how the warriors won.
Thay sac team was a problem because all 5 can score and they had multiple shooters starting and coming off the bench with turkoglu and bobby Jackson....Steph can't hide on offense and they would make draymond take a lot of the shots they will play off dray and trap whoever when dray is involve in the pick n roll
Webber is a better defender than KD

Swag won this argument!!!. Old timers always want to use the stats when it works in there favor.. Since they want to use stats, the most important stat is, Warriors avg 116pts per game to the Lakers 106. The Warriors turned the ball over less and shot a higher FG percentage. So if you use the Stats Warriors would win.
can't even use stats to compare these teams, the rules are different, the game is looser today and have way more possessions, that why with these arguments I always ask what rules we playing with, because that matters, for instance the Steve Nash Suns were good but they wasn't the best team in the 2000's, but are probably the best team from that time to put in todays NBA with their style of play
I am 41 yrs old and I have lived in three eras of NBA, 90s, 2000, 2010s. There is no way that warriors KD was going to stop Shaq and Kobe in that three peat run. Basketball is more than just shooting. It's scheme and strategy. Phil Jackson would have shut down KD and force step and klay to beat them. They would have no chance with Kobe and Shaq.

Just like the 04 pistons and Larry browns strategy shut down the lakers and blew them out in some games pretty much with their deffence/psychicall game play, running the clock, team chemistry, that Detroit grid energy would be the same destiny for 2017 golden state warriors and would lose 4-2 easy!

That team doesn’t count to this generation. I believe that team was designed to compete in this era of position less basketball or small ball or whatever ppl want to call it.

They would suffocate the other team with the 3 All-NBA Defensive players (Harper was an underrated defender) and Rodman would definitely get the better of Draymond. The Warriors had KD who is/was incredible so that would’ve been a tough matchup but who on the Warriors team could defend Kukoc? He was the innovator of the smooth shooting bigs. He was 6’11” and had a smooth 3 pointer. It would’ve been a great matchup but that Warriors team wouldn’t beat the 95-96 Bulls

They dont account for the fouls. Shaq will eliminate the starting lineup with fouls. Let Kobe loose when theyre in the penalty and its freethrow city. Lakers starting lineup vs warriors bench the rest of the game
yes bc all 5 started will foul shaq 6 times each… like just stop
@@Jackson-dk7pt it's fucks up the rotation. The planned moments for rest will change. The Lakers were usually the more rested team at the end of games. Shooting free throws for 9min in the 4th
@@Jackson-dk7pt😂😂😂
What Nick dont understand is if KD, Steph, or Klay run past Shaq. He is going to put them on there ass
They don't need to. They can shoot the 3.
Pick up the foul then dumbass Shaq. Pnr BBQ chicken tf. Keep hitting
And get himself ejected. 😂
he can only do that 6 times. do u think they'll get scared from getting put in their ass?
what yall understand is that they don't go to the lane their all shooters😂
4:50 bruh every time K-Mart looks at the guys like this I be dying 🤣
The 2018 warriors would win because they’re playing Shaq off the court eventually as ludicrous as that sounds. Defensively, between the pace of play, the spacing created, and forcing him to guard the perimeter until he shows he can consistently do it; they’d wear him down until he was ineffective and blitz Kobe so that he either gets the ball out or takes badly contested shots.
😂😂😂 keep telling yourself the warriors would dictate pace with Shaq on the floor 😂😂😂😂 sorry buddy just not happening the warriors don't have enough body's to play that type of game

Kenyon annoying as hell. Just yelling over Nick the whole time. Who won?!??!? Tripping off his own nuts thinking Steph and Durant aren’t eating. Shaq will miss all his free throws and the warriors come down and make a three, over and over and over.

Kind of like they did against the Raptors huh?
17 warriors smacking whoever , tryna discredit thats what old heads do
When shaq missed all his free throws stop cap

So shaq’s man whether it’s west or draymond they can shoot they’ll hit wide open 3’s lol u dnt have to attack Shaq that’s what Nick is saying that warriors squad is gnna work from the perimeter not the paint
Man Shaq is the Difference averaged 3 blocks in the finals. That’s 21 blocks in a game 7. Just seeing 21 blocks in one series would make you think of not dunking on him
It wasn't a 3-point league in Shaq's days. Shaq's not gonna average the same versus the KD-Warriors.
Shaq would have to guard the parameter
@@gothamcity4206 SHAQ cant guard anyone on the wariars. shaw on the perimeter defending makes harden look like jrue holiday
Nick never saw that picture of Shaq dunking on all the Nets players at ONE TIME 😂😂
Kenyon Martin is that annoying uncle that just yells and says nothing lol
he’s horrible
He's hiding the vodka somewhere. 😂
Nick young is the same way tho😂

@@KennyHunxho Both have struggled with physicality their whole careers you get and the chest you throw their game off
@@the_p.s.a6384besides 2022 KD… when have they struggled with physicality?
@@the_p.s.a6384I doubt that since technically that lakers played against archaic 90s style offense, except the kings and pistons. if the kings nearly beat them what you think Golden State would do? The pistons exposed Shaq on defense in the pick and roll with Chauncey,RRIP, and Sheed taking long twos. Bad match up for the Lakers.
@@YangoBord yes you kinda of right those other years they just choked
Kenyon knows firsthand that 2021 Lakers as they swept his New Jersey nets. They were unstoppable. They went 15-1 in The Playoffs to win the championship.
They didn't play nobody in 01. Iverson single handedly won a game with Snow, Mckie, Hill, and broken Dikembe 😂
One of their other chips in that run came courtesy of the refs because they would've lost in 6 to a high powered SAC team.
@Michael-vn2jj you on dope
@@johnnybrison4150 lol they didn't play many tough teams and when they did it was very competitive.
02 SAC was the better team, LAL needed refs help to force a game 7. 00 POR nearly took them out and 03 SAS and 04 DET were proven to be better.
22:07 WHO JAUN?! WHO JAUN?! WHO JAUN?!
Brandon’s laugh is contagious I start laughing whenever he bursts out with the laugh and knee slap 😂😂😂
61 to 29 is damn near a 90 point difference
61 shots taken at 38% = 23 made = 69 points
29 shots taken at 48% = 13.92 round down 13 = 39 points
30 point difference , what you have to take into consideration is all those fouls slow down the pace of the game and all the physicality trying to defend Shaq equals more fatigue for the Warriors who were undersized which means if you played small ball , Shaq is putting Draymond and KD in foul trouble and there goes your best playmaker and scorer
@@charliestar74 that’s shots made. yo math backwards. they shooting damn near 30 a game
@@charliestar74sure but if they play small ball Shaq’s man will always be open he’s not making it down the floor straight fast breaks
Id say '96 Bulls, '12 Heat, '08 Celtics, '14 Spurs, '01 Lakers, '11 Mavs could beat them and '04 Pistons n '07 Suns could have a good series against the KD n Steph Warriors
Amazing list🔥🔥
Heat no Dallas maybe everybody else it’s going 7
@newera5238 appreciate it g. Any that you can think of that aren't on it?
Would they win?
87 lakers and 88 pistons!!!
Keyon really thought he guarded KD 🤣
Nick forgets the Warriors was a CP3 injury away from losing in the WCF
And I was a one number away from lotto.. who cares about what if
Tell me about those series of Lakers against Portland @ Sacramento tell me bout those reffs that help Lakers
Gotta stop making that excuse they was up and had one game to win missed 26 threes going into the 4th quarter up 15

Facts Shaq made a mess of him so he defending him with everything he got
Facts shaq dogged them out. Warriors shooting everybody out the gym that year bro @jaliancasey5409
Wit KD, Curry and Klay, there's no need to go to the inside. Let Draymond do his job wit the other centers and do the best they can. They not stopping Shaq or Kobe. But nobody is stopping GSW top 3.
DELI ALMOST DID AND SO DID HOUSTON WITH LESS STOP!!! AT LEAST KINGS HAD O LIKE THE WARRIORS AND RAN A VERY PASS PICK AND POP LIKE THEM...LAKERS IN 6 EASY WORK SHAQ AND AFRO #8 KOBE
Thats silly. Draymond is too tiny to even try to guard shaq. It will be a constant 4 on 3 because of double teams. Lakers in 5

@@reecewilliams8349 Exactly. No team beats those Lakers if they have to double team Shaq.
@@reecewilliams8349your delusional draymond wouldn't even be guarding shaq that warriors team was to lethal at scoring to lose to anyone 4 times if shaq's lakers barely beat the 2000 blazers and needed help from the refs to beat the 2002 kings then there's no doubt shaq and kobe would lose to the 2017 2018 warriors in 5 🤡✌
Yo. In that decade, the West was a grind. LA, Portland, Sacramento, Dallas, T Wolves, Utah, San Antonio were the constants. Seattle was in the mix too for the 7 or 8 seed but there were six playoff regulars in the West. Portland was very talented.
Kobe mentioned in an interview with Ernie Johnson how much Shaq would influence this exact match up. He's so dominant that he would bring the game to a stand still and force teams to play slower.
Your only option on offense is to try to bring Shaq up out of the key, but then the Lakers could simply run zone and keep Shaq planted near the baseline.
Shaq is literally the most dominant for a reason. He would break your team down by himself.
LAKERS all day baby!!! warriors are just going to shoot themselves into oblivion. warriors live and die by the three. warriors aint making 30 out 45 attempted threes every game in the finals against the lakers. And yall better put some respect on D Fish's name. Sure Klay and Steph are going to get their looks from three point land but Lakers aint going to make it a cake walk for them. And Phil Jackson aint no dummy. He knows Warriors got no answer for Shaq. So he'll keep having the team toss the ball to the big man down in the post to let Shaq have a field day. Dont even get me started on Kobe. Sure ill give Iggy the flowers of being a great defender... but Kobe being Kobe... he ain't ever let any legit defender stop him ala Raja Bell, Bruce Bowen, Ruben Patterson, Shane Battier, Tony Allen and Tayshaun Prince.
And ya no shit three is better and more than 2. No doubt. But Phil Jackson aint going to let the warriors just constantly move around and let them get to their spots.
You play zone against non shooters! If you go to a zone against a pick and roll with no help. Curry and KD would have 50 a piece!
The warriors are not letting Shaq stand on the baseline and rest on defense. Shaq gonna come out here and get switched on this screen. And if he don’t switch, D fisher gonna have a long night trying to fight over and keep up with Steph
@@datdude1021 They gon be making Shaq big ass move on the perimeter lmao his ass is getting cooked every possession on defense, and he's gonna get frustrated to the point where he's gonna start commiting dumb fouls.
