Lakers wasted kobe's prime for 3 seasons 05-07 Cavs were wasting Lebron 06-10 Iversons prime was completely wasted. Wolves didnt do shit for KG Hornets were wasting CP3s time

Michael Jordan He wasted it on the White Sox

If Tim Duncan woulda gone to the Magic back in 2000 like he was about to, we'd be looking at TMac's career a heck of a lot differently. Not to mention a TMac/Duncan vs Kobe/Shaq Finals.

Bron would be on this list if he never left

"He basically got off the plane to Orlando without his ankles" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Who else was laughing when Ty Lue came on the screen

I knew my man AI was gonna be number one

"Wassup NBA fans, Dom 2k on the mic..."

im afraid of A.Davis being on that list in the future

I feel like Melo's was the worst. He wasn't on a trash team like Carter and Iverson. He never had injuries like T-Mac. He never was too old like Garnett. He *Chose* to go to a Knicks team that wasn't in any winning situation. He could have went to a team that had a superstar like Dallas, Bulls, Heat or Suns.

I don't even have to watch to know this is a great video 💯

Can we get a part 2?? There's more guys that fit this. PS- as a life long sixer fan I shed a few tears when you got to AI

KG was in his prime in Boston too. But you're right, I'm glad he got to the mountain top especially in Boston

If lebron didn't go to miami, he would be #1 on this list

You’re my favorite youtuber of all time. I’ve been going through a lot lately and watching these videos really helps me get my mind off things. We all appreciate the time and effort you put into this stuff

He Said Grant Hill Got Off The Plane Without His Ankles I Started Dying 😂😂😂😂😂

The thing with A.I. is that with his type of game ,he needs to be surrounded by teammates who are good defensively and can occasionally score or an above average scorer,because his game is just too ball dominant. Maybe the situation would be different if he has great team mates like when he was in denver ,but i always look at A.I. as an ageing star when he was in denver.

Honorable mention should go to Mitch Richmond for wasting his prime years in Sacramento after Golden State gift wrapped him to them

Love when you do these conversational videos like this bro

Nice video Dom!

What's crazy is you didn't bother to name the one that has the same name as you.. Dominique Wilkins would've been perfect to talk about as well since he is just as great as all of them

Lemme predict before the Video Starts KG A.I. TMAC Pierce? Maybe I really can't remember who else

Great video, great players as well

Thank god u uploaded this dom I'm was bored AF

A grant hill video would be dope!

CHARLES BARKLEY THO?!?!?!

TRUTH ALWAYS HURTS!! great video!

Good video Dom

Damm kg played with 2k generics 😂

AI's my all time favorite player, but he was a ball hog to the magnitude that jordan and kobe looked like amateurs. In Phili, instead of the org/coach trying to make him a team player they fueled it and surrounded him with role players and said shoot as much as you want to. Had AI been more of a team player in phili they should've shit on teams with him and stackhouse and more players would've wanted to play with him.

Nice work Dom. I subbed you when you only had like 1,000 sub now look how many you have

Keep up with the good content

10:59 "2k generics" lol

DOM THE GOAT 🔥🔥🔥

Dom I love your videos do one about the warriors

AWESOME VID

Prediction - Tmac, Allen Iverson, Kevin Garnett, pistol Pete

Patrick Ewing? Charles Barkley?

Alway's droppin' that knowledge Dom2k

Grant hill coming back from all that is straight beast. I swear I remember that playoff series when he shattered his ankle.

All these players are on this list due to Kobe and Duncan

I almost cried at #1

Dom probably my new favorite RU-vidr

Good vid bro

Iverson never been a cooperative person. Any 2nd star or super-star would be suffering cuz Iverson held the ball for 19-20 seconds in 24 seconds.. AI was the reason why Phili aint got any another superstar and that system worked. AI wasnt a good defensive player he was a good pick pocket and stealer but not a good 1 vs 1 or help defender. Thats why team had Eric Snow and Aaron McKie.. Iverson aint good with 3pt shoots thats why team had Aaron McKie. And he played with some of the best defensive centers for his time (mutombo, ratliff, dalembert) also occasionaly has the help of another star player. Such as Chris Webber, Elton Brand,Andre Miller and Andre Iquodala. It never changed at all. AI aint a good professional thats why his career ended when he was 32-33 .. Any NBA team wants to sign up with him. He goes to the Denver ? The team which has Andre Miller, Marcus Camby, Nene Hilario, Jr. Smith, Kenyon Martin, Carmelo Anthony ? What AI accomplished with better team ? Nothing sadly. And Jason Kidd went to the Finals back to back with far worse team than 2001 Sixers.. Specially 2002 Nets was terrible. Starting 5 SG was Kerry Kittles and starting center was Todd McCalloh (something like that he played only 4 season with 5pts 4rbd per game) So for that weak Eastern Conference 2000-03 Era Philadelphia was a very good team. AI was the one who aint a good team player. He had problems with Practice, with teammates, with off-ball plays ? Ok ?! So nope Iverson didnt waste his career that career and that Sixers is the only way to acumulate IVerson's streetball play style. In my opinion Paul Pierce with terrible 2002-2008 era Boston Celtics far more upsetting than AI's story. Jason Kidd with Phoneix and Nets also far more sad than AI's position. Only star/superstar player style that could fit with Iverson is defensive big men or athlethic point forwards Jermaine O'Neal Ben Wallace Lamar Odom Boris Diaw KG any other ball demanding star (such as Chris Webber, Shaq, Carmelo Anthony, Jason Kidd ,Paul Pierce etc,etc) cant mix with AI's one man show system.

Dom 2k huge fan. I love your videos even if I disagree with your point. I wanna address your Allen Iverson post. He was a great player but do you think Iverson would've wanted to share the load in his prime.? He wasn't very coachable early and I feel with another star in philly, he still wouldn't have won a championship unless he was on the Lakers. What's funny is with denver Iverson was older but he was still avg 26 a game with better efficiency. You ever notice why Denver got eliminated In the first round with Iverson but got to the WCF with billups? Now I'm not hating on Iverson but I think that Philly team did something that Denver didn't and thats play team defense. People love to say that team couldn't score but basketball has two sides and your best offense is your defense. When everyone is committed to letting you be the star while they do the gritty work, thats selfless and that took them further than talent alone. Those guys dont get enough credit for their toughness and sacrifice. I'd love to read your feedback on this one.

Did you get a new mic or something? Your voice work is sound smooth and groovy my friend, and thanks for all the great videos

"Except for the fact that he basically got off the plane to Orlando without his ankles"

Kevin Durant Favorite game - Slitherio Favorite songs - We in the land of the snakes and andaconda Favorite food - Chicken it taste like snake Favorite dessert - Cupcake Favorite animal - Snake Favorite pokemon - RATtata Favorite place - Snake Island Just some fun facts included at the end of his bio

Melo should be on this

Another great video as usual dom 👌 , bro imagine if Kobe and KG teamed up in 2006 that would've been crazy , the chemistry is definitely there ( multiple all star games ) , man just thinking about that sends chills down my spine 🔥

Aw man totally agree with this list...luckily one of them came out with a ring.

A.I. the best pound for pound nba player

Tracy and Iverson Walton should be on here

the intro is so smooth and soothing

Please do a video on the all time team official rosters

Ben Simmons = Grant Hill With out injuries

People keep saying KD wouldve been one of these guys if he didn't go to the Warriors.....yall realize he could've made a better decision by going to a different championship contender and not damaging his Legacy as much, or not choke against the Warriors in the WCF (Westbrook choked too no lie, KD did more though if u look at his stats) or win against the 2012-2013 Heat with an actual Amazing team around him and Westbrook. And I'm not hating on him or anything, I like KD, but I don't like his decision and he has had bad luck with good teams to win a championship until he went to the Justice League (Golden State Warriors).

Nice dom, i would add jason kidd to this list,played a whole bunch of years for the nets with kenyon martin,kerry kittles,van horn and so...

That tmac hit me hard, I grew up with NBA heartbreak

Vince Carter should've been number one. T Mac left him, Kidd was old and the team wasn't as good when Carter got there as they were before, Phoenix was a title contender a couple of years before Carter got there, when he finally went to a contender Garnett was healthy, Boston had every advantage from the refs and Vince came two games short of a finals appearance. All in all the worst luck of anyone mentioned.

Great montage of the greatest dunker of all time... You got like 15-20 of VC's best in this video lol

Man always wished VC would've gotten that ring...and those nets years he had some games with crazy stats and amazing buzzer beaters

Kobe prime years were wasted on trash teams, quiet as kept.

intro is lengthy

I enjoyed so much seeing TMAC play. He much like a poet

Totally agree!!! Wasted years smh...

This is what KD wanted to avoid

Though LeBron has won 3 rings and 4 mvps etc.. I still want to put him on this list LeBron would have won more rings by now than Mj. It's so crazy how good he was and young. Also how dumb the Cavs were for not trading JJ Hickson for Amar'e Stoudemire in his prime with the Suns 😡😡😡 so many of his prime years gone to waste

Ty Lue gettin lit up in these highlights a lot

Bob McAdoo. He averaged 29 and 13 for a 6 year stretch in his prime, including 3 scoring titles and an MVP. Had garbage rosters every time.

notification gang!!

Did you finish crying yet?

That zoom in on Ty Lue at 7:30 was savage.

You do really good videos. The true mountaintop is the money they made.

Warriors blew a 3-1 lead.

Steve Nash?

Ironic that they all played in the same era. Toronto had that same problem wit Bosh too but at least he got out before he got hurt and went to a great team.

Sometimes there are star players who are the building block of a grand dynasty. Sometimes they can't get out without the team they get traded to sacrificing one or more of their top players or picks. Some of these guys may have been almost stuck on their team, ya know what I mean?

Kevin Garnett the 🐐

I'm early let me think of a joke The kings GM

this is why I don't shed a tear when these guys leave. These franchises waist these guys prime years then get mad when they take their careers into his own hands.

Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady will always be my favorite basketball players. They are so underrated and were championship type players for a good portion of their career.

Kevin Durant would've been one of these guys had he not made the best decision of his career

KG>Timmy don't @ me

Nice Video

You got some crazy hot takes in this episode dom idk if i can agree with some of these

Please don't press the read more bottom,PLEASE NO! Fuckin Savage

Can u do a video on the greatest coaches?

Vince Carter's career was a lot more bitter sweet as even though he wasn't playing at his all star level in his second half of his career, he still tried to go at least win 1 ring in his life, sadly he kept going to great teams *after* they had went to the finals or were finals worthy, which arguable makes him one of the best players to not win a ring, or at least the most persistent

lol jr smith at 1:15 running away

Great video, Creepy ass music though lol

Jason Kidd that Nets team had Keyon Martin and a couple of guys from my YMCA group

With Vince Carter, it was always about effort and how little he gave after his third season. He even refused to dunk anymore at one point. He was his own worst enemy. And then when his mommy took to TV to try and defend her son, all respect was lost for him.

Damn, A.I. So heartbreaking.

100% agreed. Dominique Wilkins could be another one but I felt the most for Iverson who should've won 2 or 3 championships and being recognized for what he is. The whole idea of ballhogging is flatout bullshit when you got no decent options around you. Kobe is a good example how a dominant scorer is perceived when being on a terrible or a great team. Same story for Melo, also for Westbrook who wasn't on a terrible team but was unfortunate with Harden and Durant walking as well as facing both the Warriors and the Heat like Stockton, Malone, Miller, Ewing, Barkley and Payton were facing Jordan and weren't in the right situation to beat him at the time like Isiah Thomas was for example.

Ai was nasty boy is dem highlights

You forgot about Pete Maravich and Oscar Robertson. Big O got a chance when he went to play with Lew Alcindor and the Bucks, and had Jerry Lucas with him after a few years, but he spent a long time playing for the Cincinnati Royals without much help. Maravich was all used up by the time he got to Boston. Imagine how he would have done with a really good forward or center to catch those eye popping passes.

i would add ray allen. started off on a bad bucks team and then came to my sonics where he was amazing but barely made the playoffs about once. With the exception of rashard lewis, those teams were bad. When he teamed up in boston, he was just past his prime.
