Why Were 8 Players Drafted Before Dirk Nowitzki? How Did Their Careers Turn Out? 

Dom2k I’ll be waiting to see that IT vid then lmao Pacers in 7

Shoon Train lmaooooooo u dumb asf

Instead of 59 before IT, do 60 before Big Ben

@@Sasa-lz4lt THANK YOU!! If IT gets one, Jeremy Lin should too!!

Great vid! Can you do one on Wade's draft? I mean it's basically just "Why was Darko Milicic drafted in the top 5 with 4 Hall of Famers", but still

yeah pierces body was weird but he had the skills...hughes traylor j will candy man lafrentz should not of gone ahead of him and dirk..smdh...vince jamison and bibby I understood...the other guys?..what

well I mean in 86 they had the future lebron the continuation of their dynasty at their peak aka their james worthy added in the draft in 2nd pick len bias who died ending the run for the 80's celtics as their core aged and reggie lewis die on the court basically in summer 93 in his prime and birds back mchales foot injuries affect them in their twilight and then they picked acie earl over nic van exel and sam cassell then they picked eric montross in 94 over eddie jones and jalen rose they picked eric williams in 95 over michael finley and theo ratliff 2 future all stars and they drafted antoine walker in 96 over kobe bryant or steve nash 2 future mvps a star in ben wallace and were 2 picks away from mvp tim duncan in 97 gave up on chauncey billups their 3rd pick future hall of famer in 98 and were one pick from future mvp dirk and while pierce was great for them then they didnt have a pick in 99 they picked jerome moiso a scrub in 2000 over michael redd hedo turkoglu desmond mason or jamal magloire all of whom would of been better picks and then 2001 with giving up on joe johnson after 1 year and picking 2 busts in kedrick brown and joseph forte over future stars like tony parker gilbert arenas zach randolph richard jefferson gerald wallace mehmet okur ...trust me boston has had its bad luck recently too since len died...

Asmosis Jones Jesus h Christ

That’s the Celtics for you.

@@razkable nigga you know what puncuation is?

is Vince gonna retire? I hope not

@@jacobbrown3479 nah he said he still wants to play another year.

as a nba fan for a legit 15 years now I gotta say it...not seeing any player from the 90's is gonna hurt especially now with kids born in the year 2000 and from 2020 onwards even later being eligible to be on nba teams ...the 90s era players all gone now that dirk and vince carter are done...and those 2 only played in 1999 during the short lockout year in the nba.....heck jamal crawfordis the only guy left that played in the 2000-2001 season left in the nba drafted or not drafted and he may be out of the nba too by next season like that 51 point game vs dirk may be his last game too...smdh...crazy...brons legit one of the 2-3 oldest guys in the nba now that wade and dirk and melo zach chandler korver za za gasol haslem harris felton calderon and jamal may all be gone ..like tony parker and maybe andre igoudala aka a guy from 2004/2005 draft are the only guys older that I can see coming back next season on a roster that are older...everyone else older than bron is gonna be gone from the nba...its crazy...

@@razkable People get older, crazy concept I know.

Don’t worry there’s still Vince carter

@Jim Brodie 😂😂😂

@Jim Brodie lmao

Pretty sure i was primarily because of the combine

@Sam Lim 🤣🤣🤣oh Lord have mercy on us

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I can't stop laughing

and a sexual abuse charge

And the largest man boobs

Saw Horace Grant recently dude is jacked probably pushing 240lbs shredded muscle

The video would take like a day long 😂😂😂

There were 8 players drafted before Dirk and this vid is 16 minutes long so it the Manu or Isiah Thomas video would be like 2 hours long

Manu over dirk any day

@@kushmaster210 What? Dirk brought a championship to Dallas against the stacked heat with as close to no help as you can get. That team was worse than AI's championship run team

Raptors Fan why 59 players were drafted after Anthony Bennett

there is no right or wrong way to play

@@TheIcemanthomas did you just red my mind.

its crazy how over 20 years outside of 2011 dirk only won 7 playoff series and missed the playoffs 8 times ..while I hate that hes only remember for really 2011 and sorta 2006-2007 hey its better than nothing and he deserves it cause it was a great run...he wasn't on a super team and he got a lot of vets a ring

@@razkable hes not only remembered for those years. Those are just his casr defining moments.

Larry Hughes wasnt that bad..... he had a few 20 pt seasons! Dirk, Pierce, Vince, Jamison, than Hughes... he was still a top 5 if you look back at it.

ptown24 97? Where were you when my boy Kidd was killing it on the court

Dirk didn't need a Big 3, got it done solo

@@RR-vu3ol Truth, of course. And in the end Dirk got as many rings as that Big 3 did.

And people saying manu is better than dirk

@@mike04574 who the fuck said that

@@bigfundamental1096 some dumb analysts and a lot of commenters on a manu video

well considering he spanked jerry in many nba finals and was a better coach im not surprised....nelson loved beating jerry

it helped nelson was the former bucks gm and coach ….he knew people there like the owner so he stole dirk and ruined a dirk ray allen pairing sadly...

Sorry for this dumb quastion but Was he reall good?

@@One_E He’s what Rooney is to Man U

@@LoneStarGuerilla Ah ok thx iam German He is always in ads but i never New how he was doing im the Nba

Cool that he is celebrated by the Americans because we Germans don't understand anything about basketball xD

One of those players was Magic

Chris Gibson Bird was drafted a year before Magic.

@@bjnt92281 so he was technically drafted before him lol

Teams didn't know that they could draft players still in college.

Afnaan Syed why 29 players were drafted before Jimmy Butler especially after today’s game of zones

The Bucks who drafted 14 picks after Anthony Bennett, thank you.

*Why did Anthony Bennett get drafted?*

Justin Pina why 59 players were picked below anthony bennet

I didn’t realize how many other fellow fans loved White Chocolate. Dude made the game so much fun.

I love jason williams but he is overrated af. Flashy player dont equal good player. He got millions turnover and sac kings become much better with bibby. And bibby was not even an all star so the fact that bibby made kings better show how overrated williams was

@@muhammadfarhan581 In the end White Chocolate still helped the Heat to get their first ring. People gotta stop using the word overrated all the time, he wasn't near as "overrated" when there were plenty of buzz on so many other great players during the mid 2000s.

FIRST?? How old are you???

Cause he knocked up a 12 year old?

texasranger9 people will never let that go. Has nothing to do with basketball

TbeforetheJ But like... would you want to be the product of your 12yr old mom with a 20+ old man? I I think not

there it is...nice

Jayvon Johnson Was he convicted of a crime? Was he even charged for a crime? Were you present when those event occured and can you verify that he knew her age? The answer to all of those is no. So just shut the fuck up. Thanks.

Vince should be traded mid season to a contender. Because if there is one man who should win a title, it’s him.

Hasn't Darko been beaten enough for one lifetime?

Carmelo isnt a HOF.

@@alexs4849 melo is easily HOF no debate

Not so Weeaboo a 6 time all nba, 10 time all star, scoring champion, 3 time gold medalist winner for the nba olympics who has 25k plus in total points in the nba and you’re telling me he isn’t a HOF??

@@alexs4849 derp

Kwame all over again. TEAM drafts you high =/= YOU claiming to be "The next big thing". Celtics could've taken Tatum #1 - instead, Fultz got all that "franchise changer" pressure/attention, while most act like Tatum was a late 1st round pick.

@@darrengordon-hill I was PUMPED when we traded down and still got Tatum at 3! That's who I wanted all along. Ainge is a pretty good GM. Kwame was a terrible #1 pick, I just got to see the kandy man in college many times live and never saw a franchise changer or lottery pick let alone a #1. I saw a solid NBA role player. I wonder where he'd have gone if the clips didnt take him at 1.

Well that draft was stacked as hell, all the names before Wade except Darco made sense during that time

@@jdelgado216 Darko is the goat

Manu Camus what do you mean, dwade was great during the finals in 2006 plus their both top 5 players of their positions

@Manu Camus Wade is comparable to Dirk lmfao

@Manu Camus you suck like you could be as good as wade

who?..dirk and nash?..well I mean nash wanted more money and since he had already played on the suns he had a relationship with them had a house there where he spent his summers and liked it there he chose to go...I never understood how the 2004 mavericks with nash dirk walker jamison finley daniels howard 6 all stars all under 30 mostly in their primes lost in round 1 so easily.....that was a stacked team at every position besides center...

Asmosis Jones Nash didn’t stay in Dallas, though, because Cuban wasn’t going to pay him as much as the Suns were offering. Had he been paid better, he likely would’ve stayed.

he was undersized, wasnt a great offensive player, and came from the JUCO scene rather than being a big university prospect.

No offense

@@razkable To be fair, how many 12 year olds do you know that could play in the league and be a great defensive player? 😁

What about Fred vanvleet

He was a 5 foot 15 center

because nobody believes he could lock down odom in the finals

He *is* soft

Fr

As a Mavs fan the thought of that makes me wanna puke

How on Earth do you breathe, nah just kidding, all jokes aside, probably wouldn't have worked, Pop doesn't really like 3 point shooters so Dirk probably wouldn't have gotten minutes.

Rest in peace tractor traylor

I think that’s the whole point

clarks hat “play-ers” 😂

Marlen da Sauce God 😂

Lolol
