Nah that wasn’t cannon to the history of OKC, like a filler
1999
bruh they could’ve been a GREAT DUO but nah
Can you do the 1997-2020 series again
Na but I do remember penny hardaway and rony seikly
Who’s gonna tell him there’s two Andrew Garfield Spider mans
As forggetable as pg and russ that's why he missed
I think he did that on purpose to prove his point
@@lufox0148 100%
Idk why people shit on that movie its fucking awesome. There's worse superhero movies out there. Way worse.
At least the spider-man's second movie suit was cool
All I remember is “they ain’t seen Playoff P yet” and damian Lillard with the royal wave 🖐🏽✊🏽🖐🏽✊🏽
😂😂😂 definitely will remember that shot on PG and the wave to Westbrook
“I gotta have that shot”
He saved the thunder
J N S blessed them with CP3 & Shai
Lillard: BYE BYE 👋
Ah yes, OKC's Filler Arc.
We need an OKC manga now.
Bruh 😂
Lmao
This is the perfect way to describe it lmao
Lowkey everything after Russ MVP is filler. Even this season tbh 💀
Lillard really put the icing on the cake with that wave off buzzer😂
That is the most cold blooded thing I have ever seen in my life
aw this guy again
this man always gets likes
@@Perplexed_12 and is that a problem?
And now Portland isn’t in the playoffs while OKC sitting at 5th seed lmao 💀
This duo will most likely be on the same tier as the Carmelo-AI duo in '07. Sounded much better then it turned out being
Faxxx
@Dyler Turden as a shit duo yes
Dyler Turden who cares he ruined triple doubles by showing us the way of stat padding
Lol at least they got out the 1st round
nah, melo and ai went to the conference finals one year.
"OH YALL HAVEN'T MET PLAYOFF P YET"
Neither has regular P, we later found out
Tbf, he dropped 36 after he said that, then he dipped
Paul averaged 28.6ppg on an injured shoulder for the series and scoring 36 points on 70% shooting in the elimination game while his teammate shot an atrocious 11 for 31 from the field(35%). So who was the problem? Russ who partook in an individual battle against Dame who was just trying to win.
@@koolkai4299 I agree, a shoulder injury can make it very difficult to shoot consistently and sometimes never heals properly. Look what happened to Markelle Fultz
Came here to write this same exact thing.
I always felt like the Paul George and Russell Westbrook duo was just a discount Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook duo. I never really expected them to get out of the 2nd round and in reality they couldn’t even make it out of the 1st round.
George was in the MVP conversation until the injury that year and was not himself in the playoffs. So i can't completely blame him.
Yeah, it wasn’t really all of George’s fault. He and Westbrook just didn’t have enough chemistry and couldn’t work well together. Not to mention, the bench wasn’t exactly the best in the league at the time.
No star can play with Russell Westbricks play style. He is just a mini Lebron with a far less basketball iq and coming towards the end of his athletic abilities. We’ll see if he can prove himself this year 🤷♂️.
@@grewdordon naw, they could definitely work well together it's just that PG was, for some reason, always injured when it came down to the playoffs
davincibleu harden and westbrook knew a while for a bit, we gon be good
I remember them getting outplayed by a rookie Donovan Mitchell
*PG* got outplayed
@J3n3sis I DONT WANT TO remember them getting outplayed by a rookie Donovan Mitchell🤣💀
In fairness Mitchell had one of the all time rookie playoff performances
57wookie cmon a Rookie? Westbrook is a walking triple double
But Russ averaged a triple double
That Roberson injury was devastating, him out there with them was lockdown
We all know he used it as an excuse to pipe Rachel DeMita
Literally the best perimeter defender in the league
@@038lev2 kawhi is better though and it isnt a knock on roberson
But he would hurt their offense. OKC was already struggling to have consistent shooting around Russ and PG
KingDavid Actually he didnt. Their offensive rating was only slightly lower with him on the court. However their defensive rating dropped from first to 6th and after PG's and Westbrooks injuries to 11th.
This duo will be in the background of that iconic Lillard shot every time it replays in highlight reels during the playoffs every single season for years to come. Other than that though
The Roberson injury definitely fucked up any chance they had at playoff success. Okc was on an 8 game win streak and finally starting to click until Roberson went down
@Jay naw, Andre injury was definitely tougher
Let me explain something , as a Thunder fan, about this situation. You’re right at the end about OKC low key liking this team more than the past two season’s teams. SGA is loved, and hopefully can be built around CORRECTLY this time by the org... And there’s no harden trade 2.0 with all the draft assests we got.
i remember this vividly, even though i’m a lakers fan, i loved okc as well. they were actually on pace to be the 2nd seed last year, but a losing streak brought them down. and then dame time happened
I think in that 2019 season they could’ve gone deep in the playoffs. Ha PG not tore his labrum and rotator cuff, he wouldn’t continued to have monster mvp performances and possible won, along with getting them a top 2 seed. And the playoffs would’ve been a different story, Westbrook and PGs chemistry was amazing, the defense was insane as a team, they had a LEGIT identity as a team who puts on the clamps and gets out on the fast break with they’re athletic guys of course, and then PG lighting it up everywhere with Russ being an elite playmaker. All these people talking about not remembering the duo, I remember that 2019 season being fun to watch and seeing how well they would’ve done had PGs shoulders not got fucked causing them to lose their swag, identity defensively which pg was anchoring as a possible DPOY, and big drop in the standings. Hell even in 2018 with melo, the team was really starting to get hot until Roberson went down. That team had found its identity too. Then their defensive anchor went down and the team got sloppy and lost their identity. It happened both years. Injuries were okcs problem those 2 years, they had teams that could’ve done something in the playoffs.
Dom... The Amazing Spider-Man had a sequel, but got your point :)
This duo was amazing and they really caught the worst luck after a year where one of them underperformed
Except jingles locked him up
The 2k19 thunder is One of my favorite teams to use on 2k
They sucked. I don't know man, i have 2K19 but this team is so disfuctional. Nobody in that team can shoot, that makes Westbrook completely different and PG taking bad shots
Kush Berry yea but I be dropping 20 with each of them cause they’re more of an iso team
@@tlkzay_32 For me it's very difficult. As I said, they are very disfuctional. You can't get easy buckets frequently. Maybe with some Westbrook post up but that's it, you don't have a lot of options and is you can counter them pretty easily
I’m an okc fan I am so much happier in the situation I’m in rn than the last couple years
Same
I literally only remember them for the Lillard Buzzer beater lol.
I just watched the twitch stream of the 1999 season cause I was wondering why there was no video... and yeah... I get it now, Peja Stojakovic
The season got canceled because of the nba not being able to negotiate the cba
no, it never happened
what are you talking about. that season was canceled
Because they underperformed twice
Cuz OKC doesnt understand that the nba needs shooters especially when your MVP caliber point guard cant shoot
@@Matt-os2zn Went full Memphis: Solid contending-caliber core that was poisoned because management didn't know shooting was a thing
Yup their biggest issue during that time wasn’t the duo it was really the lack of spacing
The only thing I would remember of the duo is me saying they would lose to the Jazz and Trailblazers, and my classmates saying I'm "crazy", then proving them wrong.
Joe Ingles on the thumbnail got me dead
Absolutely love the TV in the corner showing "retro" clips. Appreciate the tiny little details you put into your videos, I know how much of a hassle editing can be but man, those little details make your videos look so clean
Never forget Melo is one of the greatest Hawks player of all time
Nah he is the greatest
@@supermanrun2313 true
And Dwight Howard was the greatest Nets player of all time
I love your channel keep making these great videos
I never cared about basketball or sports in general until I saw your videos and now I'm hooked. Great content dude!
I remember in 2k18 Westbrook, PG, and Melo were a very lethal team to play with. That is only in the video game.
I already forgot it until you brought it back up!
It’s definitely gonna be one of those things you bring up with your friends just to reminisce
I thought the loss to Donovan Mitchell in 2018 was way worse than losing to lillard
I agree
basically: “playoff p”
Cant blame PG though he underperformed due to injuries
36 points on 70% shooting in an elimination game grab 9 rebounds and hit 37% from 3 on an injured shoulder while averaging 28.6ppg for the series I'll take that any day of the week. If only Westbrook 11 for 31 showed up in the elimination game and OKC had actual shooters on their team.
Kai Clark after 2017’s elimination PG, I don’t think we get to slander anyone but PG lmao. Who sags 7 feet off with 2 seconds left
Kai Clark russ always carries and pushes his team, good grief his teammates suck
@@sagetemitope exactly
I’m a massive PG fan, even I can admit that it was hard to watch how it all went down
Dang Dom2k you can not pump these videos out any faster dang another fire episode
Bro I’m trying to be first but u guys respond like a day before😂
Hey Dom, upload the 1999 season. It doesn't matter that the finals turned out that way. I thought that this was the whole point of this series, to see how much differently thing could have went. It's more interesting to watch when random shit like this happens, we don't want to watch NBA history again, we want to see how different the league is. You are killing the series my man, upload it as it is, it's more interesting to watch random things happen rather than rewatching the NBA seasons in 2K version
I LOOOOOOVE YOUR YTB CHANNEL 🐐🐐🐐
This is so funny, I literally just watched your "How Paul George's trade to the Thunder impacts the NBA!" video, so it's pretty funny seeing how you look at it now and how you looked at it back then.
Paul George averaged 29ppg on an injured shoulder the entire series and scored 36 points on 70% shooting when it counted, grabbed nine rebounds and shot 37% in the elimination game, and had a good contest on a difficult shot. 2) Meanwhile....Westbrook engaged in a personal battle the entire series and shot 11 for 31 in the elimination game(35% FG). 3) OKC was devoid of shooters on that team.
Already know its gonna be a banger! 🔥
They got Jingled hard
I have been searching for the theme music that you play right after the intro for so long now >.
People might remember it as the team that got upset by a rookie Donovan Mitchell.
Damn good video man! You’re so accurate with everything you said!
It was sad but can’t forget that due to me being a thunder fan tbh you have very valid point watching Dame do that I said yea go for the future
What’s fascinating is that Shaq/Penny played only 3 years (1 more year than Westbrook/PG13), yet that duo is anything but forgotten
They came up against an all-time GOAT in Joe Ingles and lost, there's no shame in that.
A good memory that these 2 made was in Brooklyn game on the line Westbrook had the ball and PASSED it to PG for the win
As an OKC fan all i can say is thank you for the pickksssss
And SGA
You might be doing a video how nobody will remember Pg and kawhi were a duo next season loll! Love your work bro
Imma need that kings vid homie 😂
2 months later I deadass sort of forgot about it lol
I don't know why but I feel hype for the that INTRO "WHAT A PASS FROM RONDO".
Bro even though its very recent I only felt like PG was there for a year. You right
PG had to sign with OKC to get his max contact. I think that meant a lot considering his past and injury.
O damn, I did forget about this duo😂😂😂
Where is the NBA restart videos? This why I subscribed.
'99 got cancelled so you'll have to wait for him to stream the '00 season
That tuff they never when to the second round
lmaoo idk 2019 they was lit but...
undercover zach 2019 ppl believed we were the team to end up playing the warriors in the wcf. With Houston playing them in the second round ppl believed we had potential to give them a run. But we choked as always
I thought that was our year dawg
Chemistry problems man
happy days
As an OKC fan, this title immediately triggers me
Me too
Facts smh but whos gonna remember Dame and McCollum either
@@MacP12 alot
Y G difference is Russ and PG alltime Greats, CJ not even an All Star
@@Daily.Motivation101 Still we are better than rockets so stfu
These 2 forreal played together🤔? Nice!!!
Lillard hitting that shot to end OKCs season is pretty much how you can describe OKCs existence in this whole decade.
I remember being on a beach trip last summer and going to a restaurant and finding out Kawhi(Who I expected to stay in Toronto) and PG13 went to the Clippers and was like uhhhh wtf
Bro there is an Amazing Spider-Man 2 cmon dawg
Thats how forgetful that spiderman was
Facts
As a okc fan ima always have love for PG
Is that mordhau music in the background? Or bannerlord. Been playing both a lot so might get the sounds mixed up. Or am I way off?
Btw great video as always. I always throw one on when driving.
I already forgot about that duo
As a thunder fan I get this same feeling :(
Yo that Ingles pic in the thumbnail got me geeked 😂😂
If PG didn’t hurt his shoulders midway through his MVP season, I really think they could’ve gon far in the playoffs they lost to Portland
Nah thar MVP malarkey lasted like a month then it was Harden and Giannis for the rest of that season that team wasn’t going anywhere tbh
Bro if we traded Kanter for shooters instead of Melo we’d be remembered, cause we needed shooters and have always needed shooters
i’ve been telling all of my non-basketball friends about these two just recently! im from portland so they had to no how dame dismantled em
STREAM TOMORROW DOM
Mitchell and Ingles did us so dirty then lillard the next year ... heartbreaking to be an okc fan
Amazing Spider-Man does have a sequel it’s just THAT FORGOTTEN😭😭😭
I have a feeling that this duo will only be brought up when it comes time to critique their all time rankings.
Besides the Lillard shot, all I remember is the “unfinished business” IG post after PG resigned
People forget that when the team was first assembled with PG and Melo there was talks of the team being one of the best in the league (before the season started) and that Melo was going to become “olympics Melo”.
I remember that duo with Carmelo Anthony
Dat Intro 🔥
I loved using this team on 2k 😂
As a Thunder fan I shall never forget - though I understand
Whats good dom
I love that ur a Dbz fan😂
dawg the title was hard to read as a thunder fan who’s favorite player is paul george
I’m going to remember it
melo was also coming off the summer of hoodie melo so it was kinda hyped
It’s kinda wild that they had back to back 1st round exits despite being the favorite to win those series
I remember people saying that the duo was GSW biggest threat the first year they got together because they beat them a few times during the season. They were also a very good defensive team
Avengers, Spider-Man and dragon ball mentioned all within the first minute? You know this gon be good
Dom what are you talking about? Andrew Garfield Spiderman did get a sequel 😂.
Paul George & Russell Westbrook massively underachieved. They 100% deserve to be a forgotten duo.
I honestly read the title of this video and said to myself “when were they teammates?” 😂 I absolutely forgot about this
I actually loved this duo, never forget MVP G.
Social media doesn’t let us forget shit anymore.
Paul George: I don't wanna play with you anymore.
Why am I hearing this in my head like Andy from Toy Story 2? 😂
@@soundsandsoul6421 Same lol
As a pacers fan, I remember them coming to Indiana and losing in a devastating comeback. With Oladipo injured. They lost to Wesley Matthews.
Amazing Spiderman has a sequel Dom or was that just a joke about how we wish to forget that movie exists xD
