Man the disrespect to Yao is wild, people forget he played toe to toe with freaking Shaq lol. Hell with todays medical staff he would be a lot healthier than in his era😂
Exactly. Yao was a career 83.3% FT 🔫 as well. At 7'6" 310+ lbs. He'd be a bigger Embiid & in today's game he'd average more assists as well with teams using their BIG's to set up 3pt Shooters.
@@CarrieBearCards34 I do: he shot the worst ft% in nba history in the playoff, lost a series to Trae Young and asked out as if he wasn't the problem there
@@Balloffamer Did Ben Simmons even reach his prime fr? It felt like, just as he was on the cusp of becoming a superstar without shootibg mechanics, he fell off HARD and never came back.
Would Wilt be better than those guys? Yeah. Wilt was a beast. He wasn't just tall, he was athletic, fast, a menace on the fast break, his great passing tends to be overlooked because of how good of a scorer he was too. He had a sweet midrange fade away bank shot. He would wreck Embiid. He would feast in any era.
This is only my opinion, it is so hard to judge past players because when I think of them. It's like every thing changes such as the different lifestyles. This era certainly has the most opportunity to be better that's why the league is way talented the previous eras.
Wilt joined the Harlem globetrotters. In like thinking wilt could be like giannis and shaq combined with shooting. Rebounding it's hard to judge. I still have to learn about that era of centers. Ye
If Brook Lopez can be in the league, Yao Ming can make it in this league. And you all have no idea how athletic Wilt was when he was young. Imagine Giannis with Lebron power. Let him get the same ball handling training and he would average 30-20 and 5 blocks. He was an absolute freak in any era.
The Yao Ming disrespect is crazy. But then again, these guys were questioning the link between Memphis and Egypt... So, this may not be a bright bunch... 😂
Dennis in todays league is a smaller andre drummond with better D. To say he'd ne worst when Draymond runs around doing nothing is crazy! Rodman would be a 20 rebound 3 assist 1 Stocky typa guy
Draymond runs the offense, what are you talking about. He can also attack of the dribble. Not to mention that his type of defense wouldnt work today. He would foul out in like 5 minutes.
You really disappointed me with the kobe take. Didn't even mention the 12 times all defensive team (9 times first defensive team)! He would cook anyone in today's NBA on both sides of the ball 🐐🐐🐐
1:23 true, he scored as James Harden in his 36 ppg in an era with like 10-15 ppg less scored by teams. Like fr. 40/45 ppg minimum or same but with far better efficiency too
Players frkm this era and past eras could flawlessly player in different eras. Not all would thrive. But the hypothetical question absolutely goes both ways. And chucking up 3s doesn't make you a great player. It that's what you're great at, fine. But it makes you a great one trick pony
Isaac is right on Kobe, the Black Mamba is a Top 10 player who was perfect for his era 👍Also, I found there was a lack or respect for former stars, especially Don's take on Yao. Also, Wilt is CLEARLY better than AD and Joel. Chamberlain was 7'2 with a 48 inch vertical
Also calling Wilt Chamberlain a run and dunk man is criminal. He purposefully didn't just run and dunk because he thought it would be so easy as to be boring, so he would post dudes up and hit these ridiculous midrange sky hooks just to flex on people. He could shoot from what is today 3 point range, but there was no incentive to shoot from deep in that era because the 3 point line didn't exist.
Kobe in today’s game wouldnt be better offensively than Bron Jokic Giannis prlly Luka and Embiid too. His pure level of hoop aint that high high due to his not so high efficiency and passing.
He'd be 7'1,Strongest player in the league,one of the fastest in the league,have the best vertical in the league,with crazy good defense(there were arguments that he was just as good if not better defensively than bill Russell),the best rebounding skill in the league and he'd be allowed to be more physical(believe or not the refs were much softer in the 60's than today) If he was brought up with today's medical technology all of that would improve,and modern coaching would likely improve his free throw shooting. So he'd at the very least be an mvp contender.
@@CuriousGeorgelover1 Wilt won 1 chip as the best player on his team against some fairly tall math teachers. The SECOND he went up against another good big man he was shut down. So so overrated. Also he's a rapist.
@@CuriousGeorgelover1people need to actually go watch wilt Chamberlain film. He was shooting turnaround fades like Kevin Durant. Wilt would be Giannis with a better midrange jumper. Whenever I talk with my grandad who actually watched Wilt, he says Giannis' game is the spitting image of a modern day wilt
@@CuriousGeorgelover1going off what you said you think wilt would be stronger than Steven Adams who’s been compared by multiple players to a brick wall when they run into him
Imagine if Luka was actually an elite shooter, that's Larry Bird. In today's game he'd fight Durant for the title of best 3 level scorer. Add in high level passing, leadership and a ridiculous motor and Luka would never sniff MVP with Bird in the league.
No one wants to hear this, but I'm gonna say: if Kobe played in the modern NBA there's no fucking way he gets to change his number and put a rape trial in the past. Guilty or not, he would've been shot into the sun. Ime Udoka almost lost his career for having consensual sex in a messy situation, Draymond got sent to therapy for being too physical, Kobe would be a "what if" we talk about because he never got to play after the trial. He'd be OJ Simpson.
Also, Kobe would get past it. If he was innocent, he could take it to court. He didn’t take it to court because he didn’t want to use excess money or waste time. I also have 0 idea why you think Ime Udoka’s career is as big as Kobe’s
Isaac saying he’s complimenting Kobe when in reality it was a backhanded compliment. Kobe’s high post touches would change since there’s no more handchecking before and after he catches the ball; allowing him to feast 1v1 or kick it to the open guy.
Terrible take on Yao. He could shoot & had decent post moves. Who's guarding him? He was 7'6" 310+ lbs. He'd get to the FT Line more in today's game where he made 83.3% in his career.
He’d need to lose some weight but Duhon and Jay Williams talked about how Yao was “shockingly good” stepping out onto the perimeter on a switch. I think he could be a really good big if he got that…I would call it conversion kit. He’s a taller (and better) Myles Turner in the modern NBA, considering they had similar foot speed.
@@GoldMoufP im sure if dennis played today he also will get a lot of hate. You see those clips of him kicking a helpless cameraman? People think that it was funny but imagine if all the media saw it, he will get flamed
Magic is the guy all these point foward style players are trying to emulate. Size,speed, IQ, vision, teams would make take him in any position now as either forward or guard, some teams may even consider him for the center position. Magic would go crazy in this era.
Think you guys really needed to go a little bit away from the clear Hall of Famers who were the best of their time. Go with All-Stars from another generation, but not all time greats. Hedo Turkoglu, Jermaine O’Neal, Shawn Kemp - some random names with nothing really similar, but would love to see them play in different eras at their peak.
Afro Kobe would feast in today's league. Bro is a tremendous slasher and atlethic archetype. FroBe will posterize everybody, and he's very good too moving without the ball. Bald Kobe is like Luka Doncic but more atlethic. So yeah every Kobe version in today's league would be a monster.
Magic would be 2020 LeBron today: best passer in the league with Jokic and Luka, 20-25 ppg, still a nightmare to guard in transition but not as athletic as Miami LeBron. Simmons healthy is a better defender, but Magic was never scared of free throw and scoring in general. And probably an MVP candidate year in and year out.
@@thetramp123 were talking about playstyle here, of course magic is better in career and accolades, but playstyle wise ben simmons or lebron is the closest thing we got
Hes only averaging 40 if he has 0 good teammates shoots 45% and misses the playoffs. Hes better off averaging 30-34 and passing well like luka. Otherwise he will just be putting up 2000’s numbers which doesnt compare to offensive numbers now. You cant just translate a playstyle from a different era to another one

50 22 in a sson he efo cant do now.
1:44 Don catching strays 😭😭
W pod
I think Kobe's mentality would play a lot into how he would be in today's NBA. His competitive nature would push him to adapt.
Tbh any player would
Wouldn't modern Dennis Rodman just be Draymond Green?
Would Bill Russel just be better Rudy Gobert?
Don’t get me started with Pistol Pete.
If Kobe Bryant was playing with the Lakers today, it would be a whole potluck ( for the Nuggets and Celtics)
No one would stop Yao Ming
Yao in today's NBA would just be taller Sabonis
Come on mate, he was goin toe to toe with freakin shaq, and he had a beautiful jumpshot
Are you saying you dont want a 7 foot 6 inch tall Sabonis with a three?
That's lowkey fire. Sabonis is cleaning glass like his life depends on it this season.

He would be the same, especially without Shaq

Kobe had above average efficiency for his era, but unless he changed his shot selection wildly that would not hold up
