10 Days That Changed The NBA Forever 

EDIT: Meant to say January 26th instead of December 26th for #2 EDIT 2: Video got age restricted so I had to cut the footage of the Malice at The Palace. Its dumb but oh well The NBA was never the same after these days... Thank you everyone for the support and Happy New Year!

Also, a bit surprised Len Bias' death didn't make the list. It pretty much marked the end of the Cocaine Era and created a huge culture shift in the league

November 7th, 1991: Magic Johnson announces he has contracted HIV. So, i'm surprised it didn't make #1. But i'm shocked it didn't even make the list. Because this was a day that not only changed the NBA but all pro sports, the way we look at athletes, the way we look at disease, & our understanding of sex & sexuality. But i didn't realize all this at the time. i was just a little boy crying watching TV listening to his hero tell the world he had (what we thought at that the time was) a short term death sentence. The impact this moment had was felt worldwide. This was a catalyst for real humanitarian change.

Let’s be honest, we all came to hear more about the malice in the palace. Don’t be ashamed cause I’m here for that too my friends😌

That Lebron shit was the craziest shit I've ever seen. That was some real WWE shit. Lebron cut a promo, the fans turned on him and he turned heel. I wasn't a Lebron fan before the decision but to see everybody switch on him and I had always been a Heat fan, I LOVED it. Who wants to play to lose?? Even if you get ran off the court 3, 4 times at LA Fitness, you gonna tell somebody to sit some games out or you gonna jump to another team yourself

The oddest thing about malice is the misconception that the teams didn’t like each other. Rip, Chauncey, Sheed and Big Ben are really close w Jack, Davis boys and Artest are boys they just got a little heated. When Artest goes into stands it’s immediately players vs fans. Sheed real mvp just bear clawin the homies to get them out of stands 😂😂 I wish you didn’t punch that dude but I’m glad you did

2013-2014 spurs were actually the first to embrace 3 point shooting and moving the ball as a main strategy, when they defeted Miami everyone saw the potencial of that style, and Warriors evolved.

What about November 7, 1991 - when Magic announced he had AIDS? That day, the NBA lost a star player and players had to leave the court if they bled? It also amplified the conversation about AIDS/HIV.

Early 2020 was the craziest time to be a basketball fan...

I’m so glad I found your channel, not only do you have an amazing intro but overall your videos aren’t a copy and paste each one is a fresh/new idea, Keep it up bro 👏🏼

isnt this the 76th season? or was i hallucinating when 75 hall of famers cracked dad jokes at each other before the all star game last year?

I would add 2 days; June 19, 1986( Death of Len Bias) and November 7, 1990( Magic Johnson retires)

Hell, I'd watch a Kings & Nets finals game.

Y'all have hella good content and I'm honored I got in on the ground floor. But no Wilt Chamberlain 100 point game as an honorable mention? And while this video is about the NBA specifically not basketball in general, I feel like you have to at least mention when the sport was first invented/played

In the season when the NBA reverted to having clubs host games in their own arenas, the Raptors had to play their home games here in Tampa with reduced capacity due to border restrictions.

Love the channel, it's super original and the videos are very well done

I didn’t think id be catching strays as a Liverpool fan in a nba video 😂😂

love ur channel bro

Amazing channel. Love the little synthwave arts on some thumbnails also

ONE OF THE BEST SPORTS CHANNEL

Great video! Please make more like this

I feel like March 18, 1995 is a top ten day. Without Jordan coming back do we get Pippen and Rodman on the 75th anniversary list? Jackson winning the most coaching titles? Several ringless HOFs getting a chip? The G.O.A.T. debate mainly be between LeBron or Kobe?

Great recap

Great Video 👍

Underrated channel

Some missing days Kermit Washington’s punch, Magic retiring because of HIV, Jordan’s first retirement

this channel needs more subs fr

Might be THE best sports channel, critically under rated. Needs more cowboys though

I clicked waiting to see Malice at the Palace. I got it. Thanks.

love your channel keep pushin!!!

Amazing channel

You deserve more subs ❤

I dont think i’ll ever forget when we and our opponent agreed to take a 24 second violation in back in hs after kobe, i even wore 24 that year

I’d say two days. 1. The day Magic Johnson announced her had HIV 2. The game where Len Bias collapsed on the court and died

Small misconception with Trae wearing the 8 for Kobe, he did wear it ofc but not for the whole game, just the very first play of the game where they took the 24 sec call.

Love this idea :)

6:14 the Warriors aren’t the reason for the three point shot explosion. The Stan Van Gundy 2009 Magic team that made it to the Finals are the reason. They were the first NBA team to surround a big man with 4 3 point shooting players and win. The Warriors were just the first team to win a finals by doing the same. Give SVG his flowers

I’m definitely surprised the Len Bias incident didn’t make the cut.

underrated channel

I love when content creators in a video will say “I’m x amount away from x amount of subs” in a slightly older video. Then you look and they’ve smashed that total. Great channel boys, best of luck to y’all 👍👍

I never even comment on videos but this was a fire idea

jeez bro thanks for reminding me for that atletico vs liverpool game smh

Great video, but I think you left out the day the league stablish the 3 seconds violation to reduce the dominance of big man in the paint.

Just subbed.

I’ll never forget Boban Dropping 30 against the nuggets for the last game before covid

June 19th, 1984....that day belongs on here...somethin needs bumping

Kobe dying was sad but it didn't really affect the league historically speaking compared to the rest

When kawhi started load management or san antonio spurs benching the starters on televised match must included here

I subscribed because your post had good content, not because you expected me to just because you worked hard on putting the video together

Just like what happend to GSW the NBA don’t want GsW to Final appearance .

saying the 3p was not used until Curry is plain stupid

Love your original content. As an idea, have you every considered how over the past decades, more and more children of former professional and collegiate basketball players are entering the league; hence, players with Lebron's and KD's backgrounds are decreasing. Essentially, the NBA is become an even more exclusive club with low-income youth losing more opportunities to be possibly scouted. I say that because I saw Charles Barkley claim that 99 percent of players come from poverty, and Draymond Green agreed. That's just not true. Might have been truer in Barkley's day, but it's less truer today. We often like to this most NBA players come from poverty, but the majority are from middle- and upper-middle-class backgrounds.

December 2020? Know you meant January tho

What about any of the days between Lakers/Celtics in the 80’s?

How about the fan that threw something at Artest being charged with battery? Why didn't that happen?

I swear those tip-offs in the bubble games look like 2k graphics

Some of these didn’t “change the NBA forever”. For example, I understand Kobe’s death was sad, but did it change the NBA forever? Nope.

Is that the call of duty Cold War ost!? 😂

Wait wasn’t last season the 75th anniversary tho

U can't forget those two lock outs

no july 4th 2016 is a lil wild imo

The day they stopped calling travel was a big day and not for the good.

That's my cousin George McGinnis @ 3:30

Did we forget about the Celtics big 3?

I don't see how Kobe's death makes this list. By dudes own admission, it so far has had no real effect on the league. If he died, during the season while playing, maybe but nah

pretty much in 8 months these guys will make a video praising the mavs

I thought the NBA Draft Lottery would be on here

Outside of biasedness who has the coolest colors and logos in the NBA

The day Jackie moon was born

Covid actually made me realize how annoying the nba fan base is and I haven’t watched a full game in two years

the day the NBA abandoned defense and became a circus...

10 Days That Changed The NHL Forever

Steph Curry #11 he changed the league

celtics aint the first super team?

5:48 no cap

Isn’t the 76 nba season?

Bron switching teams made the list? There were super teams before bron left.

No KD to warriors?

7:15 I like how Kobe fans try to talk about the CP3 laker trade. While completely skipping the part where the NBA had control over the New Orleans Hornets after hurricane Katrina. Be honest. Let's say the league got what they wanted and sent CP3 to the Lakers. Kobe takes too many shots to share the backcourt. Unless he was efficient. Kobe efficient? Funny. Kobe had Shaq for the first run. Andrew, Odom, and Pau Gasol for the second run. Kobe can't win without a front court. He would lose Pau in the CP3 trade. Their best big man. This goes against history. Plus Andrew wasn't very fond of playing with Kobe during this time and would leave. We would see the Kobe of 2004-2008 return. Just older and slower. The headlines shouldn't say "Kobe got robbed of a CP3 trade". It should be "How the trade was started in the first place." Keep it real.

December 26 2020??? 13:41

dan snyder can kiss a horses behind

You mean january 26 not December

As interesting as it is, I don't believe Donaghy one bit. It really screams of the "but everyone does it" excuse, or a way to try to get his sentence reduced. The other issue is the sheer amount of people who would have to know about a scheme to fix games. It's the problem with a lot of conspiracy theories. The more people that have to be involved, the less likely it is to remain secret. Rigging games would require nearly 1000 people to know about it and never, ever reveal it.

Who was the guy who was touching all the mics at a press conference during covid? I remember that pretty clearly 🤔

And the Blazers beat the Lakers that night lol

joel

How is that number 1 ?

Kobe coined the term girl dad

Outside of KD…………….

I don't miss them every day. I don't think about people I don't know.

Ron Artest was a bad ass. But no he didn't want any of ben Wallace. Back back back peddling. The. Chases down some 5'8 fat guy who threw a drink. It was a fn mess.

I thought this was 10 straight days not 10 fucking moments, thanks watchmojo

The death of Len bias should be on here over the death of kobe if we’re going by impact alone

I’m so glad they introduced a dress code

For me, the Decision wasn't because he choose to take "The easy way out" and made miami a super team, it was the stupid idea of wasting everyone's time for like 5-6 hours when he could just say "Im going to Miami" and saved EVERYONE time. That moment made me realize Lebron was just a tv diva and wanted attention.

A content creator that actually said Minneapolis correctly 🥲

Good effort but pls cut to the chase faster

Im sorry dude but the nba logo shouldn’t be Kobe. Tragic accident but no he’s not the guy to make the face of a product with his past. We can’t just forget about Colorado no matter how terrible his death was.

Bubble ring dont count

'promosm' 😎
