“Here comes Ricketty Dick again.”

I had dick Ricketts once, it's not fun. I recommend the ointment not the pills

His grading was all over the place though. Way too many D's given to guys that had solid careers.

@@darinvee4980 Especially Wiggins. How the hell does he get a D. He's no where near a bust and a very good player, just not a super star. He's at least a B player.

@@henny6566 I’d give him a high C+ honestly maybe B-, for a 1st overall pick his career has been pretty mediocre so far. Been in the league for 7-8 years already, only ONE all star selection and has made the playoffs ONCE. He was supposed to be so much better but for the majority of his career has looked like a very good rolpelayee to borderline all star at best.

Evil Elf Thats fair but at the same time some draft classes are just weak af, and it just happens that way sometimes. Maybe if he got drafted in another year, he would have been a 9th or a 15th pick, then the whole narrative would be flipped.

Kyrie a B- but AD an A?? Absolutely ridiculous

Ranking: A+

I love how folks do that even though Chicago needed Jordan more than Houston and Portland

@@sdmurphy20 Well the GM of the 1984 Bulls said that at the time other than Olajuwon MJ was their guy. But you right on your assumption tho

Biggest flex in Houston Rockets history.

they didnt call him hakeem the dream olajuwon for nothing

He counts how they played for the team that drafted them, Wiggins with the warriors doesn't factor in

@@gunfighter009 listen to the beginning lmao

He's having a good year. It's one good, not great, year in a career full of bad years. He might even have a season or two similar to this one going forward. It's not nearly enough for a #1 pick who was hyped as much as he was

He's balancing expectations as well as others drafted in the grade

Yeah, but he was compared to Michael Jordan before being drafted and he's not even close to that. I'd probably give him a C- or a D+ personally.

Peak wall > kyrie And Barry (rightfully) doesn’t count team success as much as most people

@@landanross2966 Peak Wall has inferior advanced metrics and worse efficiency so I wouldn’t say that. And outside of team performance Kyrie still has a better resume with more feats. The most you could say regarding basketball is Kyrie doesn’t stay healthy which applies to Wall as well.

Krie is like a B to B+

@@landanross2966 😂. No way you think John Wall is anywhere close to Kyrie. Kyrie is more skilled, has had a way better career.

@@landanross2966 I live in DC. Peak Wall wasn't ever better than Peak Kyrie.

The only center outside of Ben Wallace to give prime Shaq a legit challenge. Only Chinese player (and currently only player of Asian descent) inducted into the HoF. That man was born to play-shame his injury buildup prevented him from ever winning a ring

He's gotta be one of the unluckiest players ever. The man was teamed up with fkn Tracy McGrady for 5 years and they were both injured so often that they never made it out of the first round together

@@averagebusinessmen2 And as soon as they traded away McGrady they went to 7 games with the to-be champion Lakers lol. McGrady is even more unlucky if you think about it

@@thebestcentaur I hope you mean in the 2000's. Because a couple of big men in the 90's gave Shaq a challenge if not the business.

@@henny6566 i mean he meant prime Shaq, not the Orlando Shaq Tbh, Hakeem was the only one who gave Shaq some real beating challenge. The rest were beaten by Shaq

He would of had a better career if it wasn't for his injury in Milwaukee

*D+

@@ooonyxxx That's too low. He's a 15-18 PPG scorer. If he avg 10-12 PPG, that is reasonable ranking.

D+ or C- because he’s the 1st overall pick, he’s supposed to be a perennial all-star

@@ooonyxxx Na C he had good play just inconsistent

@@TheRealAbraxas He not trash tho just disappointing so I would say C then

Kat isn’t a team cancer and statistically is better than Kyrie on offense and defense

@@landanross2966 Has more accolades tho.

Probably because Kyrie is bad to have on a team. Good player but too much drama

@@landanross2966 Celtics fans and Nets fans want your head, run

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obdkf8iltLiRnpc.html thank me laterr

Less impressive considering it was '51. Muggsy Bogues is the most legendary small man IMO. 5'3" 12th overall pick, playing with all those bruising giants in the 90s, still played 14 seasons. That'll never happen again.

To think of it did he give out a single B grade in the video?

its so hard to grade him from one of the greatest seasons by a 20 year old ever, to eating too much food. Hoping he has a great career tho he seems like a good dude

Zion is probably a right grade at what he gave for Ant and Cade, and that's incomplete. He had one of the best seasons for a 20 year old in the league but it's just very hard to gauge that when he hasn't really played a lot after that. Incomplete even as a prospect in the league is what I'd best consider him for now because he's at a crossroads where he could throw his career away or get it together and dominate

Imagine being a professional athlete and competing at 40+ pounds overweight. Zion doesn’t care and will most likely will not be productive for long.

ik this is old but zion avg 27 on 60% in his 2nd year. Boy is a monster A- is justifiable

But the thing I like about Barry is even if u disagree with him he brings up stats and builds his case not just using opinions

@@crazy_castl4712 the anti-skip baseless

I agree with most of his stuff but Wiggins is not a D, I'd say C or C-

@@dusk6159 He got Lebron, MJ and Kareem as his Top 3 which is a W

You gotta admit, the only difference between who your goat is is preference in career. Lebron and MJ are just in a whole other league, so many records and stats and success you just can’t easily pick one.

Having Zion a- and then Kyrie b- is laughable

Yea some of his ratings dont make much sense

Kyrie is an A.

People forget the cavs were rebuilding before bron came. So it’s unpredictable to think the cavs wouldn’t have success

@@alexmotts cavs under Bron since 2010 weren't rebuilding lol and let's not act like the east was horrible in 2007 when the pistons and cavs were the only 50 win teams in the east. Pistons didn't have their best defender ben Wallace or coach Larry brown. Wizards had arenas injured and butler during the playoffs and a nets team who was old. Cavs finished top defensively and many of those players were decent.

Wiggins was rated way too low

@@dusk6159 and hakeem, kareem is close but obviously he found a lot of his success in LA

@@dusk6159 Right like I don’t think Hakeem can be an A+ because Jordan was right behind him. Still an A because Hakeem was that good, but you missed out on the best player. Can’t be an A+

If we’re counting specifically what they did for the team that drafted them, then Duncan is by far #1.

@@tylercat4746 no he wasn’t

Also, 33% FG in the first half of the 50s wasn't that bad

People forget that effiency was relative to era in the 50s not like today’s nba, so it wasn’t bad due to era

1957-58 is when ppg averages really picked up. Before teams scored mid to high 80s on sub 40% shooting. Still, makes you wonder how someone like giannis or Shaq would perform lol

Facts that’s why I’m scared because 20 years from now today stars stats will be so inflated

That’s why we have Relative to League stats??

The part about being an average player and having an average name was hilarious, especially cause it is so true!

@@alexmotts He’s still an all star without Lebron and was playing good with good teams but just couldn’t do anything cause of injuries and now the vaccine. And we can’t discredit the fact that he won a ring for Cleveland even if it was with bron he still outplayed one of the best pgs in nba history. He’s easily B+

Still not worthy of the 1st overall pick

probably a c or c+

If he didn’t slack with the lakers the first time and with Houston he would be way more appreciated he definitely bumped up his stock being a crucial roll in the lakers 2020 playoffs and championship run

He’s not a hof

@Fries jermaine O’Neal is not underrated he’s just ok

@@ncaa12cfb92 if that is your opinion, it is just wrong

@@numberoneballer2075 he just isn’t hall of fame caliber

that leads to another big "what if" in NBA history of if the Rockets accepted the Blazers trade offer of the 3rd pick in exchange for Ralph Sampson. Hakeem and Jordan would've ran the league man its crazy

@@coachswag8956 Yeah, but you could turn that around and ask "What if Ralph Sampson never got hurt?" Which to be fair, you couldn't predict would happen after the 1986 finals.

The Rockets had no chance against those Celtics, no matter what.

@@fernandocarrazzoni That wasn't the point of what I said. They were able to get to those finals over the Showtime Lakers of all teams. They could have been just as much of a powerhouse in the NBA if Ralph Sampson wasn't hurt. But again, we'll never know. As for having MJ and Hakeem during that series, um... yeah they likely would have gotten it to 7, but it's a coin flip on who would have won.

Just a reminder-Hakeem will probably be the only one to be an All-Star, NBA champ, MVP, Finals MVP, and DPOY in a single season

Ewing was the only mistake he made. Ewing A+ but he is learning. I want to see Mr.cockiner improve.

Same for Russell

Almost anyone can average 20 with enough minutes and shots. No.

@@RicardoAGuitar Wiggins is really good this year

@@natesknees No, he's good. Not very good, just good. At that, it's a good year in a career full of bad years

@@HighlightDepot No, he said it isn’t

@@RicardoAGuitar not good enough fah dat 1 round pick

Exactly I don't see the hate

yea seeing him be an F really surprised me, he’s still a good player on the Magic nowadays too

I wouldn't mind Barry breaking that down in a video

@@RicardoAGuitar check out Dom2k video on it. It's called the myth that lebron deserved the MVP over rose

@@Christopher._M I know that video exists, I would like Barry's perspective

@@RicardoAGuitar Oh, it would be interesting. I wonder how he would justify giving lebron the MVP when his team was more talented with a worst record. Not to mention The bulls had two major player injured and still had the best record.

this is 7 months ago

Bro said Anthony Davis had a better career then kyrie. That's some clown shit

B- for me

No one is putting anyone above other players. This is a ranking based on each player's performance in the NBA for their teams not a ranking of players against each other.

@Fries he very likely will be, even with his clownshoes beliefs tainting his legacy. Nobody drafted with at least 6 All-Star selections and at least one title is out of the HoF. Nobody. The closest is Chauncey Billups, and he might never get in because his early career SUUUUUUCKED

@Fries no he wasnt

Phil Jackson, Red Auerbach, Gregg Poppovich, and Pat Riley deserve mention

@@HBG313 if David Thompson is only a b- Wiggins is c ish

Nope

Probably not.

Jordan a better shooter? idk about that , especially from 3 Also , Jordan wasn’t even the best defender on his team, Pippen always took the toughest assignment, as Lebron has done in his career and James can guard multiple positions . Lebron is also a way better passer and has a higher basketball IQ

I agree with most of that. Jordan won a DPOY though which Lebron or Scottie can’t say. But shooting yeah Jordan was better. Better free throws, mid ranger jumpers. Jordan if he played today would have developed a three point shot, and even in the 90’s he was breaking finals three point records. Lebron’s on basketball Mount Rushmore, but Jordan’s dominance of his era is matched only by Bill Russel.

Where does he rank among point guards?

He got mauled in the Paint in the Playoffs, especially by Akumpo

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNuBkrurvJa8cqc.html

Kyrie should be a A- and D rose a B. Karl also deserves a B.

@@Christopher._M Derrick rose B ? He played 3 seasons at a 1st pick level before becoming a role player due to injuries. B- is fine
