John themachine gotta b exciting. First even looking like a success. It's a packed house in the Barklays and the crowd going crazy. I'd b excited too lol
I really hope this league survives man. With 3X3 ball entering the Olympics now, it's a good time for this sport. More talented and slightly younger players will want to join.
philly215ty I see. But I mentioned that more for the popularity of 3x3, not so much using the same athletes. But good to know this information. thanks.
olle åkerman Curry is a great shooter no doubt. Tho it's hard to say who would be better, back then.......a lot of things change with the rules and everything. Not to mention part of the reason Curry is good because he can kick the ball out to Clay. So the defense has to plan for two (now three) deep shooters who can also drive. Miami heat with LeBron would've destroyed gsw, but once someone figures out how to beat the dominant team, the entire league change. That's why it's not easy to be a dynasty and curry haven't done that yet.
I respect your opinion, but All the players that played with both of them in Sacramento say williams was better. Btw jason williams has a ring and his jersey retired on Miami
adrian francis no, he really wasn't, was a dependable get you 15/16pts a night player and never shot even 40% from three. he was aiight but stop with the legend stuff.
Maricela Campos he was a small guard playing in a big league. If curry played back then, his numbers wouldn't be as good either. Also Abdul-Rauf could score big. Just look at his college career.
Been a wolves fan since 6/22/17 Steph would certainly be a superstar even back in the day hand check and all. but comparing chris freaking jackson to steph curry is basketball blasphemy lol. plenty of dudes put up big numbers in the college game. not taking anything away from him, mahmoud was an above average nba player that had a respectable career.
Maricela Campos Curry wouldn't be a superstar because 3 point shooting wasn't a priority. Abdul-Rauf overshadowed Shaq when they played in lsu together. Curry is a superstar because 3 point shooting teams win and he uses that to his advantage. Nowadays every position shoots 3's too from pg to centers.
That little shove by Bibby sent Williams' center of mass drift right just as he was pushing off his right foot on a stride stop trying to change direction and move to his left. This induced a valgus collapse and the acl injury. So crucial to keep your knees over your feet especially on these direction changing stride/jump stop moves
I am going to be honest, this is the first B-Ball competition I am legitimately stoked about, I am going go to the championship game a state over, can you imagine them all in a little better shape and for those kind of bragging rights? Bound to see some hustle a scuffle. Super pumped.
I also wish Vince Carter and t mac would play in the big 3. This league reminds of when I saw John McEnroe and some of the retired tennis players playing team tennis. Its away for the older players to continue playing the big 3 gives them a chance to still play basketball. I would like to see some more of my favs like Larry Johnson, Shawn Kemp KG, Issiah Thomas, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen .
i wish they would add a legendery3 each season. pierce/garnett/Allen duncan/ginobli/parker kidd/kittles/martin shaq/kobe/Eddie jones yao/t mac/ artest Dirk/nash/Finley. C'mon Cube!!! 🤞
The announcers are referring to the "4-point spot" (and its range) as "Curryland" ... as in Steph Curry, a player from another league. I guess given the time of year they are playing, they are not pretending to 'compete' w/ the NBA.
I figured as much, although I don't think the NBA owns these arenas. Certainly not the Key Arena in Seattle, Rupp Arena in KY, and the Arena in Las Vegas.
Ross Radtke what are you talking about. They at the Brooklyn nets arena right now. These owners own these arenas. They paid for them to get built. Point is curryland doesn't infringe anything. This isn't a real league. It's like arena football. Not meant to be taken seriously
Mike Bibby! The forgotten King! He was so underrated!
How can people forget Bibby... For that Kings the two most memorable players were Webber and Bibby.
@@nomooon webber and willians :D
Hyena laughing matter no
Everyone has their own preference@@hyenalaughingmatter8103
hearing the commentator say Abdul-Raouf gives some chills, that's a forgotten legend right there.
TheTrip A true forgotten legend!
Man was doing Steph Curry things before Steph was known
FJ NEMO exactly😎
Very true, I gave a little hand clap. its nice to hear some of the old names being called again.
TheTrip real talk
it's cool to see these NBA players who I grew up with having fun once again
yeah
Ya I agree
thats facts man i said the same
This is dope, you can almost see ice cube light up like a little kid
John themachine gotta b exciting. First even looking like a success. It's a packed house in the Barklays and the crowd going crazy. I'd b excited too lol
Dexter Dajuice botlike they have much to look forward to in rhe NBA too...... Cube played this smartly
John themachine. That man came along way... proof that god is good
@Dexter Dajuice yea he like im about to make some $$$ lol
John themachine is Gary Payton also Too $hort?
Never thought I'd see 4 pointers in basketball...Soooooo Cooooool
williamibanks 4 is kinda a lot tbh
It's called a "curry land" shot lol
No. It's game-breaking.
Vlad Imir but it's from a circle so it's more difficult
Kiritsugu Emiya nah. You underestimate the power of nba players today.
I really hope this league survives man. With 3X3 ball entering the Olympics now, it's a good time for this sport. More talented and slightly younger players will want to join.
I think the age of the players gives this league character, although I really don't wanna see any of these old men get injured
3x3 in olympics? word?
gadgetstalker2 You can not be a former professional to play in the 3x3 Olympics look it up
philly215ty I see. But I mentioned that more for the popularity of 3x3, not so much using the same athletes. But good to know this information. thanks.
gadgetstalker2 ay you never know a future gold medalist might read this and start working on his 3x3 team
Gary Payton just naturally look like 80% of AAU coaches
yeah my high school coach looked liked him too :D
lmao
Robin Hong kinda how I feel when I see mike tomlin. he reminds me of every black football coach I had growing up
lol
Mizzoumike000 That'd be racist if it wasn't true😂😂👍🏽
I love this seeing Mike and Jason brings back memory's of when my kings were good😭
man hard to see Jwill go down like that. Guy has so much love and passion for the game.
This Big3 leauge is so dope it's like your in the Early 2000s seeing Nba greats playing all over agian just not in their prime or in the NBA
ovtoni44 and that's the Era that I loved. I can't even watch the NBA today.
I guess the 3 headed monsters is the closest we'll get to having the Sonics back. GP and Rashard!
GP was gone by the time Rashard Lewis came to the team?
HotaruQQ No, they played together for 4 1/2 seasons, look it up
ok I believe you. Although by the time Rashard Lewis was starting, GP def was gone
HotaruQQ 👍
Rashard started beside Payton... stop it
This is nice I like this league.
seeing abdul-raouf out there i had to take me a trip back to his LSU days. homeboy was the business back in the day. Good to see him out there!!
Calling that curry land when Bibby was making those shots before curry was in college
PHD GATSBY Not like curry tho, but both bibby and abdul were mean deep range shooters
PHD GATSBY come on lets real here...its curryland
Its like Android had the first "Smartphone", but when people thinking of smartphone nowadays, they think of iPhone first.

The first smartphone was The IBM Simon in the new millenial the first smartphones were motorolas
Gary Payton look like that black uncle that sticks his fork in ya plate at the family cook outs.
LMAO 😂 😂
He probably does.
I recognize that username
It sucks white chocolate had to go out like that. RIP
ctfu he ain't dead lmao
Have some respect lol
Mike Bibby did it on purpose! Because he knows that williams is better than him..hahah
I respect your opinion, but All the players that played with both of them in Sacramento say williams was better. Btw jason williams has a ring and his jersey retired on Miami
Rodrigo Medeiros no J Will number is not retired
Cube living his dream, gotta respect that. Only thing the League is missing is another big name like Kobe or Garnett
white chocolate realized that THIS LEAGUE IS SERIOUS.....i hope he's recovered. i would love to see him back in the big 3.
1:31 He was like "I BelieveI Can Fly" then realized the other guy had clampson him lol
They need to replace the four point bubble with a four point arc.
abdul rauf playin he bad he was curry in jordans era
adrian francis no, he really wasn't, was a dependable get you 15/16pts a night player and never shot even 40% from three. he was aiight but stop with the legend stuff.
Maricela Campos he was a small guard playing in a big league. If curry played back then, his numbers wouldn't be as good either. Also Abdul-Rauf could score big. Just look at his college career.

Maricela Campos Abdul dropped 50 something on john Stockton in the nba, curry got frustrated by dellavadova😂
Finally something to watch in the summer. I was getting tired of watching reruns of "unsolved mysteries".
lololol
Im not the only one who saw that KWAME BROWN GOT 15 points right?
Dominic Quirante leave that man alone lmao
Dominic Quirante That's more than he scored in the NBA his first year
What the what lol
17 I thought
Dominic Quirante Kwame had good s3asons in the NBA
3 headed monsters all day! Been a fan for hours now!!! Ha 😂
Oh my goodness, J Will my man, wish you a speedy recover, lots of love!
My boy Abdul Rauf!!
This needs to be picked up. Brings back a lot of memories for this old street ball player.
Hope vc and tmac play together on Big 3 would be awesome to see
That little shove by Bibby sent Williams' center of mass drift right just as he was pushing off his right foot on a stride stop trying to change direction and move to his left. This induced a valgus collapse and the acl injury. So crucial to keep your knees over your feet especially on these direction changing stride/jump stop moves
ice cube looks like a happy dad watching his kids play in the sand box .
From NWA to Big3. Ice Cube is the definition of greatness.
The summer months need this!!!
this is hilarious, cool, surreal, entertaining and competitive all at the same time lol
It's good seeing these old guys getting some shine and competing .
Really Enjoying seeing these guys play
I am going to be honest, this is the first B-Ball competition I am legitimately stoked about, I am going go to the championship game a state over, can you imagine them all in a little better shape and for those kind of bragging rights? Bound to see some hustle a scuffle. Super pumped.
This league brings back so many memories as a kid ! 😫
What a great idea from Cube! Give these retired players something productive to do besides make bad business decisions. They can't ALL be like Mike.
This is amazing for old school heads 😂😂 big ups to ice cube ✌🏽😎💪🏽💯
I also wish Vince Carter and t mac would play in the big 3. This league reminds of when I saw John McEnroe and some of the retired tennis players playing team tennis. Its away for the older players to continue playing the big 3 gives them a chance to still play basketball. I would like to see some more of my favs like Larry Johnson, Shawn Kemp KG, Issiah Thomas, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen .
Love the smack talkin, no weak tech
this crowd was littt!! 🔥🔥
i wish they would add a legendery3 each season.
pierce/garnett/Allen
duncan/ginobli/parker
kidd/kittles/martin
shaq/kobe/Eddie jones
yao/t mac/ artest
Dirk/nash/Finley.
C'mon Cube!!! 🤞
Exactly.. All the big name players people actually wanna see
Bring hakeem on
happy to see mahmoud abdul rauf playing basketball again!
absolutely great stuff - love it! question: do you need to hit these 4 point shots exactly from those three spots on the floor to make them count?
this is so good for all the past NBA players.
4 points. In 10 years Steph Curry is going to own this league.
PhantomoftheInterwebz nop cause that time his shooting will be ugly that time cause his out of prime
james lee shooting never goes away
RealTeezy it will a lot of good shooter in the NBA dropping there shooting percentage when they getting older
james lee That makes no sense.
james lee lol good shooters always know how to shoot..its the other stuff that leaves them
My boy Abdul playing gotta watch
Something to hold me over til next NBA season
Both team names sound like they should be in space jam
Ouch. I just injured my ACL...Jasons fall looked like an ACL injury. Hope it's not.
is it coming to Seattle?
Yeah. Sometime in August.
where and when can I watch this
0:54 that cut JWill’s BIG3 career short
be awesome if maybe a Chris Mullens or Tim Hardaway, Glen Rice, made a appearance. 🏀
Chris is a college coach now
Dave with a fire axe standing on a hill of skulls they would probably coach just like Gary
Bring Hakeem tooo
this is really good u can tell they are playing hard
Mike Bibby even so clutch here.
Rashad lewis is back baby😁🔥💪🏀
Mike Bibby and White Chocolate, those guys are amazing to watch
They should do this with 🏈 5on5 no line on ether side but a center and one DT. No QB sneaks.
j will vs bibby amazing as a kings fan to get to watch my favorites play again i want peja playing.
That was just a sign for White Chocolate to confirm his retirement
How many points did Abdul Rauf have? His youtube videos are amazing man
The announcers are referring to the "4-point spot" (and its range) as "Curryland" ... as in Steph Curry, a player from another league.
I guess given the time of year they are playing, they are not pretending to 'compete' w/ the NBA.
Ross Radtke these are former NBA players. This is like the summer league but for ex players. The NBA clearly approved it because they in NBA arenas
I figured as much, although I don't think the NBA owns these arenas. Certainly not the Key Arena in Seattle, Rupp Arena in KY, and the Arena in Las Vegas.
Ross Radtke what are you talking about. They at the Brooklyn nets arena right now. These owners own these arenas. They paid for them to get built. Point is curryland doesn't infringe anything. This isn't a real league. It's like arena football. Not meant to be taken seriously
The city owns the arena as well because most arenas are paid for by the cities of the team not the owners
yeah, I think we are in agreement here. its not a competitor of the NBA. given the time of year (and locations too.)
Black owned basketball league im proud of ice cube for this one black folks its on us to support are brother
racist
Why is there not being uploaded as RUclips videos
Bibby AND Jason Williams??!?!? Omg I'm feeling the #SacramentoKingsLove 😍
Thanks Cube we luv it
I want every BIG3 jersey.......home and away
Nicvas was rocking suits inaugural season. Nicca back to jeans and tees
White Chocolate getting hurt is going to be the issue with this. Older dudes getting hurt and benched. But I do like the concept.
Dam Dub-Chocolate is out 6-8 MONTHS after that knee injury...get well soon bro, sending prayers up ☝️☝️
abdul-rauf and rashad lewis are lost shooting legends
Ice cube is like today was a good day
Rashard Lewis is one of the best Big Shooters in NBA history,,yall better put a hand in his face lol & Abdul Rauf is still ballin? WOW!
Salute to Ice Cube for starting this league.
bibby will own that 4 pt shot!!
Mike Bibby is ripped.
I want to see Nate Robinson, Baron Davis, Caron Butler , maybe Chauncey Billups, and Vince Carter in this league someday
I WANNA SEE MJ, PIPPEN AND RODMAN!!!
what they should do is have a tournament every june with all 30 teams. they can use legends who played for them for more than 5 seasons.
There won't be any players left to play due to injuries after 1st season is over....
Ice Cube got the million dollar smile
lol that 1up mario sound for the NBA jam style 4 pointer. hope they don't get sued
I know I don't see Kwame Brown out there! Where's my eye wash?
rockafelladw HE'S A BONAFIDE SCRUB - Stephen A smith
rockafelladw that's what I thought. Like dang, this guy is like a bad penny.
Baby
like Steph Curry🔥🔥👀🙏🏾🥶
they had their moment
Anyone else think G. Peyton looks like DMX? 😂
A 4point shot? Wow😮
this league gone be way more interesting than nba season
Very proud of ICE CUBE. The first two games were good.
Ice Cube: Genius
Props to Ice Cube !! Awesome
I wish there was 4 point line instead of a circle
I love to see my favorite explayers hooping in this league, hope we'll see MJ play
My bet are on the 3 Headed Monsters
bibby a legend
Am I the only one that enjoyed seeing Gary Payton coach ?
Grampa Williams broke his hip.
Uncle Drew is resting..
