jonny i know this is a compilation of videos you already made and its not like you made this video from scratch, but bro i didn't know you had 3 hours worth of great content at hand, you ccrazy man

You are a true fan of this game!!! I love this game!!! Thank you for taking the time to make this video!!!

I grew up watching basketball in the 50's and i hated the 60's-90's era and thought it was trash compared to 50's ball but looking back on it now, that was the best version of the nba ive ever seen in my 84 years. Them guys magic and bird and then Jordan were amazing.

You should have a lot more subscribers than most of these basketball channels. Your knowledge and passion for the sport is next level.

You have current ball creators that smash it, but when it comes to actual basketball content and the history behind the beautiful game Jonny is the goat

Just to piggyback on what a lot of other comments have said, I love and appreciate your Chanel and it’s content because you find new ways to keep your content fresh and interesting. Especially when there are so many basketball channels flooding KZfaq. Love and respect the work. Thank you

Congrats on 185k!!! Ive watched all your videos now so keep doing what you do because its genuinely so entertaining

Johnny your knowledge and videos have allowed me to develop a love for the game I never had before, and the intro beat is 🔥🔥

All of your long videos seem to be your top performers. So this will hit 300k in no time.

Love how relaxing these long videos are. Keep it up Johnny

21:30 There was no greater flipper than “Floppy” Divac.. The GOAT of flopping! 😂

This is a fantastic summary - a highlight of events that shaped and changed the game. I can't say I agree with all of your opinions, but your facts are solid and i appreciate all the work, clips included in this video. Thank you!

Dude, your hard work, love for the game and dedication is quite incredible. You've got a yourself a new sub.

Very good documentary! I think I speak for everyone on the comments when I say we all appreciate the hard work involved in putting this massive project together! THANK YOU, SIR! 🙏

I have learned so much basketball from this channel thank you Jonny!! I didn’t know majority of this stuff

Very glad I was recommended this video and channel - keep up the good work

Definitely intrigued by this... 👀 🍿 Thank you Jonnyarnett 👍🏾

Hell yeah!!! day saver...thank you mr.arnett for your work❤

For every younger basketball fan finding your channel there will be one kid less spewing uneducated takes on tiktok...well maybe not for every, but I like to think positive.

I love these compilation feasts. Thank you Jonny ❤

This is a history class I can get behind

I love falling asleep to basketball facts!!! Thank you, Jonny.

You should do a video called “if NBL stats counted” similar to the if ABA stats counted video. I think this would be cool because the NBA does recognise BAA before the NBL merger even though talent was split between the two leagues and the NBL would later join the NBA. I also think it would be cool because a lot of people including me doesn’t know much about the NBL so it would contain a lot of new info that could be interesting. It would also further show the dominance of George Mikan and it would change the championship total of the Lakers meaning they would have one more ring than the Celtics which as a Lakers fan this is one of my favourite parts of this scenario lol. Just an idea though great vid.

i often wonder why the NBA doesn’t count the NBL or the ABA accomplishments in their history books. the NFL recognizes the AFL and AAFC. the NBA prides itself on cherishing basketball history yet refuses to acknowledge two professional leagues that helped shape what it is today (same goes for the NHL barely recognizing the WHA accomplishments)…..weird.

Prior to the 2001 season, the NBA had an illegal defense rule that didn’t allow centers to camp under the basket and guard the rim unless there was an offensive player near the basket on either side of the block. The defensive players who protected the rim were near the paint because they were close to under the basket. The defensive three second rule as we now know it is in place because the NBA now allows a type of zone defense that wasn’t permitted under the older illegal defense rules.

That is exactly why I believe the 70s are the NBA's true Golden Era. The variability year to year, and the depth of competition.

I am a heterosexual African American man. 😂😂Angel Reese plays for my hometown Chicago Sky so, I am definitely supporting her. My Chicago Sky beat the Dallas Wings yesterday and Angel played well. Caitlin Clark is a very good basketball player. Unfortunately the number 1 overall pick 99% of the time goes to the team that needs the most help. Caitlin Clark is improving every game. She will be just fine. I am a big time Big Ten fan. I enjoyed see g Caitlin Clark hold it down for the Big Ten Conference. I want all of these young ladies in wnba to play well. My Chicago Sky is 2 - 1 and one of their 1st round picks has not even played yet due to a shoulder injury. My Chicago Sky has a tuff schedule ahead. Let's go Sky!

I like your content.. Based on stats..

❤❤❤💯

Amazing video Appreciate the hard work🫡

ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY FIVE THOUSAND!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I knew you would eventually do a video on the cagers. I always laughed when my dad talked about the bad boy pistons. Ive always been a fan of history, and my love of basketball has interwined with it. Learning about the game, imagine my astonishment at 8 years old when I read Bill Russell had literally more rings than fingers. Going back even further I read about the cagers and found it fascinating. I know ur a laker fan bro, and y'all are generally amongst the most..boisterous(read; insufferable lol) but u manage to remain almost completely objective in ur assessments, and in this day and age of instant gratification(look at how theyre talking about anthony edwards for having 5 good playoff games lol) ur viewpoints are fair handed and even. Ur the best bro.

Gotta do one on Lloyd Banks he mixtape material is 2nd to none, album quality ready. Probably the most underrated slept on artist in the game with countless classic mixtapes

26:37 as a dad I like this subject

00’ was the best era !! Like u said best of both worlds

"They used to shoot each other with guns but this era could still be considered soft compared to the decades befor it"

you basketball fans need to become more educated on “Dobber” Bob Lanier. the most underrated and underappreciated player ever. 6’11, 250 pounds. he could score, rebound, and pass. i loved his jump shot. he should’ve been on the Top 50 list. he damn sure should’ve been on Top 75. he may not have any all NBA selections but it’s understandable when there were only 2 spots at the time and youre fighting for the second team because Kareem is occupying the first team. a Pistons legend. a Bucks legend. no one talks about this dude and that’s a problem.

You have such a classy context

🏀

25:08 We’re really out here having Rui Hachimura shootin technical fouls now?😂

My go to signature move for a sure score was the Kevin McHale move.

Lesson appreciated! Edit: Peeped Phil Jackson in some of the Knicks shots.

TAKE EM TO SCHOOL JOA!

❤❤

Ah, the NBA in the 70s and 80s...like hockey only much rougher.

🍄

I love basketball 🏀🌟🍾🐐

And one could say the centers like Chet are centers with a small forward body

Born and raised in Portland Oregon and this made me sad. Most cursed for sure.

I still don't undersand how dude is alive

Happy Friday!!!

The creator almost got it right about the 80's was harder. The players back in the 80's didn't grow up with 3 pointer. So seeing front line players didn't make plays more then 15 feet from the basket. In half court game the play starts with in the 3 point line. So you had a more compact area of play. The defense didn't have to move as far to cover. It was all man to man defense no zone like they do today. When you see a defender next to the paint and ignoring the offensive players stand behind the 3 point line that would have been a defensive violation. You have to be no farther then one zone defending a player. LBJ being holding the all time score leader with a 3 point era. When Kareem didn't ever shoot a shot farther then 15 feet 1 and 2 points at a time. LBJ would take 3 to 5 more years to do without the 3 pointer. That is how different the game was. I played when college transition to the 3 pointer. When I would go to the rec center to practice 3 pointers. The players in the gym were amazed I was hitting 20% on a 3 pointer. Very few people in a pickup game would shoot a 3 pointer. Now people start behind the 3 point line not at the top of the key. With fast break and and most shot are closer to the rim. You are going to be more efficient.

Wemby should be the first non-playoff player to win it

I remember watching that all star game when magic came back with my pops man what a time to be alive

Video idea.... ways that women's basketball is better than the NBA. ON hour uncut hoops channel you have a few videos putting the WNBA and their players in their place. But in light of the women's college basketball tournament having 3 games that performed better than the NBA Finals (including the 18.7 million title game) a good video topic is on what the NBA could learn(relearn) from the women's game... specifically, The college game. I watched women's college BB for the first time in 20 years and although they are inferior in talent, I LIVED the eddort displayed, and that refs were consistently calling travel. Just a video idea.

The scrub king

in the 90s you COULDNT camp under the basket in the NBA. You had to be within arms distance of your man or you would get called for illegal defense. Which in my opinion makes it eaiser to score but you could argue hand checking leveled the feild

12:56 should have mentioned that the celtics were held back due to John Havlicek getting hurt in the ECF against the Knicks

2:30:20 that’s because he had to put up the teams offense as well 🤷🏾‍♂️

I’m 70 years old and grew up playing and watching nba BB. With KZfaq I’ve watched a lot of old-fashioned games, especially Bill Russell and his Celtics. I’ve stayed a Celtics fan, especially with Larry Bird, Magic, Kareem and the MJ. For the past decade I have stopped watching the nba because of the many negative things that LeBrain has introduced to the nba; whining, complaining, flopping, traveling, palming the ball, charging, and changing teams like a “dirty shirt” in search of nba titles to polish his impossible quest for the fake goat title! What a total mess. Hopefully he will retire soon and maybe the nba will return to a watchable entity?

I got to see in person Kobe hit one of his game winners. Versus Charlotte in 2001

If pippen had won 2000 championship he’d have Robert horry status. And would have something Mj don’t

Born in '93 and i miss my sonics.. but thats neither here nor there. Just chiming in to say, i also agree that the 2000s was FIRE for the NBA. I miss those days.

I really believe the 2000s era was the perfect evolution of the '80s and '90s style of basketball. In my personal opinion, the game has regressed ever since the 2010s. I know that's not a popular take but I really don't care... LOL

California love ❤️ ❤❤, LAKERS , You keep 6 'clock

28:15 this my thoughts

If I had one wish, it would be to see LeBron James try and flop his way through a game under 1890's Hell in a Cell rules.

I love flopping. James Harden is playing hard. Flopping shows you want to win.

Say NO to flopping

2:31:45 what tf would this have to do with defense? This aspect was on ball defense not off ball. The goal of defense is not letting your man get around u.

Let them know White Mamba was the real Goat

🏀🏀👋👍

👋👋🏀🏀👍👍

The worse defense is from the 80’s and currently

I've watched most of the watchable nba games over the last 50 plus years. Today's nba is unwatchable unless you're just desperate to stay a fan.

Can we stop justifying Sam Bowie instead of MJ because of Drexler? Drexler avg 7.7ppg as a Rookie.... 2.9 boards and 1.9apg... didn't even make a Rookie team... Jim paxson was the starting SG and all.nba player that season and back to back All star....

Jordan didn’t play the type of players Kobe played 🤣 😂 what do u mean

I guess celtics where the dynasty because they won twice against all the one and done.

Actually, there WAS a dynasty during the '70s, but it was in the ABA: the Indiana Pacers who were champions in 1970, '72, and '73.

Did you say Kobe got more accolades than MJ lolol, then you compared KD to MJ disrespectful

Sorry to correct you ...but Karl Malone did not say this before the allstar game..this was when Magic tried to come back for the 1993 season when Malone commented..forcing Magic to retire early in the season....And Magic did play in the 1996 season and lost to Houston in the first round. Someone didn't do their homework

🍈🍉

WARRIORS ULTIMATE TEAM PLEASE

you lost alot of credibility in that vid but thanks for the effort. Def keep watching

Bias.....you can't always compare era's.....Kobe has 3x the competition at shooting guard than Jordan

Jonny...this was absolutely beautiful. I'm sure I have a bias as a diehard lifetime born and bred Laker fan from Los Angeles California but regardless...I loved this as a basketball fan. Great work. 👍💜🏀⛹️⛹️‍♀️⛹️‍♂️🧺🗑️

This @jonnyarnett fellow makes real content, not like some others… he is a student of the game🎉

Wow the duck and under McHale move wasn't mentioned at all smh🤔🏀⛹️🔙🔚🔝✅🛐🔛
