Still to this day, that’s one of the greatest series I’ve ever seen. It was like the NBA Finals during the first round 1. We were spoiled with a lot of clutch shots.
Was that the series with like 4 of 7 games that went into at least one overtime? Best series ever? I also remember John Salmons playing out of his mind 🤣
It was really sad for how Lamar Odom’s career really flat out ended when he got traded to Dallas , and like the subsequent years to follow , so so sad for him , and it was just rough shit for LO
Blake was still decent when he was in his early days in Detroit. He averaged 24 points in 2019, his career high in points and still an all star. That injury he suffered before the 2019 playoffs really ruined his prime.
I’d have Steve Francis in the top 3, dude was a 26 year old 3 time all star in his prime who got traded to Orlando had a decent season then fell off completely… No injuries involved either just pure wildin…
@@SolusFather Naw he had migraines when he was with Houston, that was the reason we only won 20 games and got the number 1 draft pick(Yao)… With Orlando he got suspended due to conduct detrimental to the team then traded to NY. He later said he started wildin because they traded Kelvin Cato who he was close with, he also got upset they traded Cuttino Mobley whom he was in the league with his entire career at that point.
I think the separation from CAT affected Francis more. During the Orlando/NY days, you can see that Steve's passion for the game is down. Age also caught up to him as he is not as athletic as before. But still, strange he just fell off the map.
ben wallace and carlos boozer. they were both one dimensional players who had great success on teams that catered to their strength but ruined their careers when they chased the most money and joined the bulls. richard jefferson is another one. i thought he would fit great with the spurs but his career went downhill.
@@icupnibba3533 he was putting up inefficient empty numbers and played no defense which pissed off thibs. he tried to trade boozer for several years but found no takers. the bulls finally gave up and used the amnesty clause on him
Man, that would be another great topic for a video "bad fit". Dudes who had success, went to a good team, looked like their career was over, and then went on and had success again elsewhere. RJ with the Spurs would definitely be top 5......
Allen Iverson just finished his second season with the Nuggets scoring 26.4 points on good efficiency while playing all 82 games during the regular season. Why would anyone insist on him being a bench player the next season with the Pistons? David Stern tried to ruin man's career around every corner.
Because Iverson was ISO heavy player. he could only be effective with ball in his hands but he was undersized and with age he was dropping off. Selfish undersized players who love shooting much more than passing are better fitted to being 6th men than starters. Lou Williams is a prime example of that.
@Bwwe82090 in my opinion kembas stats were pated while in Charlotte no good players on his team meaning he can score as much as he wanted to then he went to a contender and fell off a cliff not a coincidence
My boy Lauri prob in the top 3 players to become an actual all star and show why they just needed better coaching! The Finnisher fits so well on Utah but it's a few Eastern teams that become true contenders if they get him!
Iverson still had a lot of great basketball left in him through the Detroit, Memphis, and Philly years. The problem was that he was finally blackballed by that point.
AI blackballed himself lol. He was a ball dominant undersized guard who could only give you scoring. Look at how much better the Nuggets were when they had Chauncey instead of him. AI should have swallowed his pride and accepted a role off the bench.
When you hear those trumpets, you know that this story is true. Things are unfortunate for these players. And does AI to pistons on here? Scottie Pippen to Rockets?
Scottie Pippen was still productive afterwards in his stint in Portland. He didn't fall of the map completely, but just simply declined like any other player.
I actually liked the way Iverson went out. It embodies everything we know and love about him. I could never imagine A.I playing behind a player he knows couldn’t tie his laces during his prime
Andrew Bynum was the second best center in the league and the Lakers traded him in a 4-team-deal for Dwight Howard. Bynum went from being an All-NBA second team and All-Star to retirement with 25 years of age in 2014
Some of the Pistons players of the last decade that fell of a cliff when they joined them: Josh Smith Ben Gordon Charlie Villanueva Brandon Jennings Jon Leuer Brandon Knight Blake Griffin Reggie Jackson
Eh the jury's still out on Blake Griffin. He's having a resurgence on the Nets and he was never exactly BAD when he played for the Pistons. I'd say it's more that he gained a lot by playing next to Point God Chris Paul and when he didn't have him getting him easy buckets anymore we got to see what he was really like on his own. The Pistons were just where we got to see that.
Is it just me or can I not hear anything about Noah without hearing “he was 4th in mvp voting” like don’t get me wrong that’s amazing frfr but it’s every time someone talks about him and I swear there’s never been a player end 4th in mvp voting that gets mentioned that much 😂
It’s hard to build around a guy like IT. He’s too small to play defense and you’d have to constantly hide him defensively. Hard to sign a guy to a super max who can’t play defense and is so small. IT was the product of a college coach who wanted to get creative. But props to him he played his ass off
props to brad too. apparently he was the only coach who knew how to hide IT on defense that's why celtics still had success with IT being celtics' best player
It was a time before advanced stats. Spre was the second-highest scoring guard in the league, only behind Mitch Richmond, but Richmond played for a terrible team while Spre and the Warriors made the playoffs. Just as importantly, Jordan was out of the league and the voters didn't know who was "Next."
@Hairline Lawyer I’m assuming you’re talking about 2016 with DeAndre and the reason Embiid is went an All NBA selection was he didn’t play enough. It was his rookie year and he got injured after like 30 games which is also why he didn’t win ROTY
Truly a sad story.. He was all ready for a big pay day and got hurt what a shame.. Plus I think his sister died or someone in his family.. Felt awful for him..
Al. finished his second season with the Nuggets scoring 26.4 points on good efficiency while playing all 82 games during the regular season. Why would anyone insist on him being a bench player the next season with the Pistons? It just wouldn’t make sense
Um the man refused to adjust his game (by that I mean team ball) He was in 76'ers for too long and it was kind of detrimental to his growth. Dude is a beast no doubt but relying on him for all those years than to suddenly ask him to trust in his teammates is a big change.
If John Wall didnt have some large contract back at 2018, he would've stayed in DC and played nowadays. Jeez those last 10 yrs were lit and things changed in the new decade
I think the biggest one that was not included was Ben Wallace. Iverson was already old by the time he was traded to the Pistons.. Some honorable mentions- John Starks, Rashard Lewis, Richard Jefferson, Chandler Parsons and Deron Williams.
I'm just glad Odom is still alive. And with Iverson if he had accepted a lesser role like Melo eventually did he'd have a ring and while he might not have felt he earned it I would gladly call him a champion
And there are actually real MVPs who came off the bench in the later part of their careers when Iverson said that. Specifically: Bob McAdoo, Bill Walton, and Moses Malone. Rose is the 4th.
Prior to joining the wizards in the 2000s, there used to be a shooting guard who wore #23 for the bulls averaging like 0.5 mvp trophies a year in the past decades…
Damn, Joe Dumars was making some bad trade choices and I hate how the Pistons have 3 slots on here. I'm still pissed that he traded Chauncey for AI and I love AI and don't get me started on those damn Ben Gordon and Josh Smith deals.
Still waiting for the day Andy does that “how good was Mike Miller actually” video , really looking forward to it , and he was probably one of the best combo guards off the bench and a great spot off shooter from 3 point range
I feel the Ben Gordon thing is wrong. The Pistons expected him to be a big time superstar and get better when he regressed and he’s a major reason the Pistons have had so many issues over the last decade
i remembered when playing NBA Live 05 or 07, yeah Live, "if Josh Smith could get a jumpshot, he'll be a superstar" -something like this, says the commentator while playing
Allen Iverson was being blackballed. He was good enough to start and his Denver run proved that. If he didn't get hurt and his daughter didn't get sick he would have definitely been a 76er
he earned it. fans conveniently ignore his antics and attitude that never changed. they didn’t want a diva who acted like a spoiled child and who was declining fast. he wasn’t worth the trouble that he creates
@@BigWillieDillie bullshit. his whole tenure from before being drafted until retirement was him being a diva and causing trouble while blaming everyone else for his issues. high school, college, Philly: everywhere he was he had self-inflicted issues
Danny Ainge was what happened to Isaiah Thomas. He low-balled IT after a heroic playoff performance. I know that he shouldn't get a max due to his hip injury but trading him away to another team, even though he was super loyal to the city of Boston. That's just messed up.
bullshit. pure bullshit. you conveniently ignore that HE DEMANDED THE TRADE. he was an asshole to teammates and acted like a diva as time wore on, his trade was all him not the team “lowballing” him
The Ben Gordon one still pisses me off till this day. If he stayed for the next couple seasons who knows how the Bulls would've done with an MVP D Rose in the back court
The post going to work Pistons are where careers go to die. It was the price we paid for having Billups, RIP, Big Ben, and Sheed revitalize their careers after coming to Detroit.
Lance Stephenson returning to the Pacers was more like Dennis Rodman joining the Bulls in that he was in a situation/role where he was understood by his team and coaching staff, and allowed to be himself in the way that he played the game of basketball. If Greg Popovich had understood Dennis the way that he was understood in both Detroit and Chicago, the Spurs would have been champions before the arrival of Tim Duncan. And if Dennis had not been traded for Will Purdue and ended up in Chicago, the Bulls don't win another 3 straight championship banners (IMO).
As a Sonics fan Im surprised you left Vin "double chin" Baker off this list. He was a 3x All-Star with the Milwaukee Bucks before being traded to the Seattle Super Sonics. He had one lone All-Star appearance in his first season with Seattle in 1997 but after that he was done. He had a decent season in 2000 but no where near the player he was in Milwaukee.
Lamar Odom story is sad. I felt the Lakers built his career on and off the court. He was a 2 time champion and then Lakers traded him. I hope Lamar life continues well.
I am a big iverson fan but the truth is that he didn't drop off after being traded from denver. from the looks of it, something had happened in the offseason before the trade, his numbers had decline from something like 26ppg in the previous season to like 19, and he seemed sluggish in the few games he played in denver prior to the trade. then they traded him for billups etc, and in detroit he dropped to like 14ppg, so people think that the decline occured after the trade. but his production had fallen significantly even in the few games he played in denver at the start of that season. minor clarification, carry on (Y)
Swallow his pride? We are talking about Iverson here not some average player who is given a second chance. Iverson is too cool to be like Dwight or Mello bro. Him comming off from a bench is like sending Napoleon to an island. They should have told him he is not good enough to play in NBA anymore and he should look for another franchise not bench him like that and humiliate him.
What’s crazy is Drose could of been on this list but he didn’t let that happen. Despite all of the injuries and jokes they made about him being hurt and the most fragile player ever . He still kept pushing himself and believing in himself. He just got a a good contract with the knicks and still in the league after everything he’s been through. Just goes to show what really could of been if he never got hurt .

Hmm, a lot of these players fall out with they go to the Pistons. Interesting....
Detroit and Memphis just seems to be a career killer lol
J Smith Do have some great time in HOUSTON though BUT he made a terrible choice again by joining the Clippers ,then it's all over
As a Sonics fan Im surprised you left Vin "double chin" Baker off this list. He was a 3x All-Star with the Milwaukee Bucks before being traded to the Seattle Super Sonics. He had one lone All-Star appearance in his first season with Seattle in 1997 but after that he was done. He had a decent season in 2000 but no where near the player he was in Milwaukee.
Memories.
Fear the deer jerseys.
lance is on the pacers again
Love how home doesn't mention Odom was always on that rock...
8:14 anyone notice that voice crack lol
Lamar Odom story is sad. I felt the Lakers built his career on and off the court. He was a 2 time champion and then Lakers traded him. I hope Lamar life continues well.
You should’ve included Noah’s iconic free throws 😂
You forgot Shawn Kemp
PISTONS SINCE 2008 SUCKS SO HARD THAT THEY'RE DESYROYING MANY CAREERS
Josh Smit will always have the 2015 3-1 comeback for the Rockets vs Doc's Clippers
Andrew Hoops 👑
Lol when josh smith made a 3 it was front page news
Deron williams: as soon as he went to new jersey he was never the same guy: clearly injuries and mentality and he fell off fast.
The Lamar Odom's problem was to take part to the Kardashians tv shows, he was no longer thinking on basketball..
That Iverson interview was when he was still with the Sixers, not after being bench by Memphis.
Being a pistons fan this was hard to watch
I am a big iverson fan but the truth is that he didn't drop off after being traded from denver. from the looks of it, something had happened in the offseason before the trade, his numbers had decline from something like 26ppg in the previous season to like 19, and he seemed sluggish in the few games he played in denver prior to the trade. then they traded him for billups etc, and in detroit he dropped to like 14ppg, so people think that the decline occured after the trade. but his production had fallen significantly even in the few games he played in denver at the start of that season. minor clarification, carry on (Y)
Iverson is THE example of letting pride get in the way.
Love this video
Swallow his pride? We are talking about Iverson here not some average player who is given a second chance. Iverson is too cool to be like Dwight or Mello bro. Him comming off from a bench is like sending Napoleon to an island.
They should have told him he is not good enough to play in NBA anymore and he should look for another franchise not bench him like that and humiliate him.
I swear every time I listen to him it sounds like a jazz stand up mic😭💯
You forgot Ty Lawson man. When he went to the rockets he basically became irrelevant in a single season
Really good one
What’s crazy is Drose could of been on this list but he didn’t let that happen. Despite all of the injuries and jokes they made about him being hurt and the most fragile player ever . He still kept pushing himself and believing in himself. He just got a a good contract with the knicks and still in the league after everything he’s been through. Just goes to show what really could of been if he never got hurt .
Ben Gordon is on some all-time Bulls rosters on 2k.
Im watching lance right now on your vid after I watched him killing in yhe nba again
Imagine Josh Smith in a draymond green role surrounded by shooters
Thanks for giving my guy JSmoove some love.
Josh Smith went crazy in the LAC-Houston series
Pepperidge Farm remembers that the Supersonics were ruined by an evil man named Clay Bennett
Seattle will get a team hopefully in the next 5-10 years
