​@carronhalfpookiehalfhenryw1113 What does win/loss have to do with how Reggie played against the Knicks? Were you even alive to watch those matchups, or did you just Google stats? Those 90's Knicks teams were stacked. Now the Pacers had a good starting 5, but they never had the depth the Knicks did back then. One player can't win a team game but can still play incredible while losing.

Ja has issues I get it , but I know a few dudes that were like that and changed for the better

I always hear people tell others to "be themselves". What if they're assholes? What if they themselves are terrible people? What if they are reckless people who put other people in danger with their bad decisions? Are you still telling them to be themselves?

ja did all this?

​@@ddavis8988 Well... I understand that. But that sentence is supposed to mean "be the best version of yourself you can be, not a complete different and false person to please others". Honestly, Ja's situation completely refers to that. He's not a thug, he's just trying to look hard for his peers and what he thinks gives him credibility. I'm sure his education wasn't about that life.

@Joao Albuquerque I grew up near where Ja grew up. He wasn't in them streets and he needs to be thankful that he wasn't and that he had a 2 parent household guiding him. Cause there are knuckheads in Sumter who would kill for his life. And that's not what Stephen Jackson said. Amd Jack is known for giving suspect advice.

God bless you man for this comment. The Malaise in the NBA is A Reflection of The Institutional and Moral Decadence Prevailing in the American Society Where Kids have bigger rights than their Parents no thanks To Govt..

Yep. People gunna hate this one but it’s true. Period

I agree

Wow, the music is so haunting and serious… you can feel the pain in the sparse music

Its an N issue

NBA used to be a men’s league, but now players are drafted at 19/20 years old and given the keys to the franchise immediately. FO’s value potential more than professionalism and the game is suffering for it. No way Carmelo should be going out the way he is. No reason Westbrook’s name should be slandered the way it has for the last few years. It’s sad because Kobe’s had the most respected voice when it came to these topics, but he’s gone now and people don’t care enough about his era’s legends like KG & Paul Pierce to listen to what they have to say (even though they’re not as well spoken).

It's better now compared to Reggie's late years. During those times. It was mostly 1 on 1 selfish low-scoring game. Also, players were acting like gangsters, that's why the Jerseys are not as baggy anymore to rid of the mindset.

@@HighlightRiel The players today are too young and immature.

​@TA-ht4jo nothing to do with age really some of these guys are in their 30s and being immature

True, they were that good. Even artest & jackson admitted later on that the brawl in the palace messed up a potentially great team.

They were first seed that year until that happened. At least the superior team won the chip

​@Gee_Morty.. that happened in November you donut. Who gives a flying F about 1st seed in November

True. After that happened, Miller's career was done. They still had hope before the incident but that whole brawl ruined the whole season! It cast a dark shadow...

I Hear stories about Al but I gotta say, I was surprised when he said he loved playing mentor to AL Harrington. I dont know why because he is soft spoken and never seemed like a knucklehead or a guy that peacocks for attention but I think his play reminded me of Antoine Walker and I lumped them in together lol

@@say5070 when he first came in the league out of high school, he lived with Antonio Davis and his family and they watched over him like he was their own child. That was a classy gesture by the Davis family.

Yep. Damian Lillard just spoke on the importance of having vets on teams.

​@@retrozzfuzionzz8677he would because how sucks the defense today

How he is underrated? Everyone knows and it is very well documented what he did during his career and his legacy. Wtf

It's become unwatchable for me.. growing up watching the NBA in the 80's and 90's there was a maturity and masculine presence that's missing now.

​@TommieGun71 1000% true. Now it just seems to be a masculine version of real housewives. Just drama everywhere.

I can’t watch no more either

@@TommieGun71 100 % agreed. Even as a casual basketball fan I see that masculine presence lacking.

It’s 1000 times worse today. Immaturity has become a common trait amongst these idiots.

Real different

Sadly, pathetically different.

So different that it's killing the league its becoming unwatchable.

To be fair he was probably one of the few educated guys in the NBA

@@enhancedutility266 No he really wasn't. the majority of the NBA tought like Reggie during his era. Ask Vernon Maxwell aka Stephen Jackson 1.0 why he got punched in the face by Hakeem. Because that hood shit doesn't have any business being anywhere but in the hood.

Agreed, I slowed down watching the game after 2005. It has become a shooting contest, who can shoot the furthest. The year's all star proved that. Horrible.

Yea I stopped watching in the late 2000s.

Kobe was the reason his team wasn’t making the playoffs, he’s also the reason the suns came back and eliminated them when they were up 3-1 against them. This revisionist history with Kobe has to stop just because he’s dead. Great players are supposed to win, and he failed numerous of times to even be a .500 team before they acquire Pau and Ron Artest, etc. Also I’m not even sure why you even brought Kobe up, players can express how they feel independently. You said that shit as if Kobe wanted to win more than Reggie even did.

NBA Players from the same hood as RAPPERS.

Not really man. It happens and Tayshaun was elite with his long arms. I was a Michigander at the time and so psyched to see the pistons kick ass.

Reggie would have had that shot swatted at a rookie and I'm a Reggie guy. I don't know what you're talking about because dunking on people was never Reggie's thing.

DAMON DASH asked him... What's your biggest professional dream about life or career? JACKSON replied, I wanna become an ACTOR, DAMON DASH was offended, he was like, naaaaahhhhh... That's too small, Give me another bigger dream 😂. Right there and then, I knew the Guy will never grow mentally.

The hip-hop culture within the league is arguably even worse now than it was then. Most of these players and even the league it’s self seem to promote is indecent rap content. And at least those guys back in 2000’s still dressed like actual males. These dudes nowadays are wearing dresses with purses smh

Yes! Preach my guy. You remember back in the day when players having tattoos was an anomaly? Dennis Rodman was looked at like a freak (although he was a tremendous defender). Now…being clean cut is regarded as corny. This is why despite being one of the all-time greatest to ever play the game, Tim Duncan’s Jersey never really sold like that…smh make it make sense bro

U mad about Hip Hop culture? lmao! unbelievable. yes let's blame the street reporters of real life situations these men have to deal with lol. Foh. street ball style is the reason the NBA is even still watchable. Indeed people should have respect for putting in hard work to excel at the game, Ofc. your "beloved" d.stern fvcked up by not drafting out of high school. currently the game is soft with pussy foul calls. All offense and no defense now because when u actually play defense its being called a foul. smh. Dress code is mostly bs. and tim duncan jerseys don't sell cuz dude was boring. hey, have all the rings ya want, but if you're game is forgettable then it will be forgotten.

players nowadays DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY bud, they know dunks and fancy dribbles but no court sense

​@@blaxpoitation8528let's be honest bro.. Duncan's game, while very effective, was extremely boring. Not taking away from his greatness, but that matters when it comes to fans wanting to buy his jersey.

Both should be true. You should be given benefit of the doubt at first until after an impression is made then you should have to build from there.

Then you never watched Larry Bird play. Your loss

​@@arln1966 larry wasnt a shooter but a scorer, reggie purely a shooter

@@wetlettuce8215 lol, Larry Bird was a deadly shooter, especially with the game on the line. And how can you tell? The one shot they show about Larry Bird the most is the one he missed vs the Lakers after Magic hit the baby hook shot over McHale. Why does that get shown more often? Simple answer: it's because he hit so many clutch shots to win the game that the one he missed is used to show that even the greatest player in NBA history failed in the clutch once in awhile. Further proof of how great a shooter Larry Bird is? At age 60, he went to a Pacers practice, grabbed a ball and made 10 consecutive 3 point shots WITHOUT A MISS in front of the entire Pacers team, then sat down on the bleachers to watch practice. After not playing that much basketball since he retired. Bet you Reggie Miller can't do that.

​@@arln1966 Look at Larry 3% and come back and tell me he was

​@Anthony Naughton Nah. This just shows you can't respect a different game or player. Or you never actually saw Miller play. He was an incredible shooter and so fun to watch. Fearless and clutch. He'd just burst around screens and his launch/release was so quick... as a Bulls fan he was one of the only players from that Era that whenever there was a pressure shot and it was in Miller's hands your heart skipped a beat. One of my favorite players. I'll never get why some guys are so sensitive they have to put down a player to try to elevate another... it's kind of juvenile. Bird is a legend for a variety of reasons but it doesn't negate being a bid fan of Miller's game.

We talking one of the all time greats

True. But AI played as hard as anyone you ever saw on game day. It doesn’t excuse the fact about practice. He needed to make those around him better.

The NBA is awful today

@@BoosterGoldEarth6 Name your favorite era and I can tell you what was awful about it. Stop putting on rose colored glasses when thinking back to previous eras.

@stifler5062 lol you right, I watched one game of the Pacers/Heat Eastern Conference series in 2013. It re-pissed me off so I have legit not watched another one. I still keep up with the game here and there though. Turns out I was just a Reggie fan all that time

He didn't give the choke sign to the fans. He gave it to Spike Lee. That's it Spike didn't respect him or his team, or his state for that matter.. Reggie just gave it right back to him. There's a difference Knicks & Pacers hated each other because they respected each other.

@@88949597 Facts. And being a Knicks fan, I can attest to this. Plus, Reggie was always a professional. He’s 100% right on this. The game has lost its “luster.”

The difference between that Reggie & the Reggie during "Malice" is like 10 years. You think his attitude couldn't have changed in the span of a decade? 🤔

@@jan279 maybe

That wasn't the mentality back then. Try to latch on and get a ring when past your prime. I know a dude like Reggie would not appreciate the ring fully if he ran to another team like LA.

I have been telling people the same thing. No matter what Magic and Bird did it was ALWAYS about the Lakers and the Celtics but when Jordan came along he , Nike and the NBA totally destroyed the concept of team sports and the first time I actually paid attention to it was when he scored 63 pts against Boston but no one ever talks about the fact he got swept in the playoffs that season and if you do you're labeled an old hater

Good point, never thought of that perspective. The NBA has been on a decline since the Jordan era and we’re just now seeing it’s full effect on the league and players.

What are you talking about.

Exactly ! Reggie was no angel

Not as dirty as your mom

He was talkin about having discipline and respect at your team mates by taking practice and the game plan seriously. His dirty antics (w/c many players do back then) to put his team in a position to win is different.

Looool right

You can therefore place some of the blame on the more senior members not being great mentors and role models.

Never had any. Over rated

​@rayguard9470 How? This man carried a team on his back for nearly 20 years and played his ass off in his last season. If anything, the Pacers overperformed because of his presence there. Made it to the playoffs almost every year with no stars.
