top 5 of the 2020s so far Ben simmons (player of the decade so far) Dillon Brooks Jordan poole Deangelo russell and Killian hayes

Barry my wife’s boyfriends dog recently died of a marijuana overdose. This video made me feel a whole lot better about the situation thank you so much for your heroism.

Fun Fact - Hakeem has a winning record against the Bulls when Jordan was playing

I would love to see that 50 minute video on KD’s legacy impacted by his stint with the warriors😂

Barry this basketball content has been dope as hell. Please keep the trend

"Two cheeks of the same ass" might be the best of saying a loss is a loss and I will cherish this

Great video! Agree with most of this. My corrections below (using your voice): 1960's, Michael Jordan. He was born in 1963 and his mere presence on our Earth influenced Wilt and the rest of the players of that decade. 1970's, Michael Jordan. His early high school footage took social media by storm and it prompted that decade to get their best basketball in now before it's too late. 1980's, Michael Jordan. Magic and Bird colluded to make the most of their rivalry knowing Jordan was on his way to the NBA. 2000's, Michael Jordan. You know he played on the Wizards, right? 2010's, Michael Jordan. Lebron wanted to be just like Jorda..excuse me, the GOAT. He came up short though, and all the credit goes to Jordan. Just like copyright infringement laws, this too would hold up in court.

That 50's team is definitely full of hard workers who you would want to date your daughter.

Note about Russell's scoring: he led team USA in scoring en route to gold at the 1956 Olympics and he had a 30 point 40 rebound game 7 in the 1962 Finals to secure his fifth title in six seasons. He's a very underrated legend and my favorite player along with Lebron.

I'm a big cavs fan and therefore, Lebron fan. But Barry really does try to blow Bron every chance he gets, even by my standards.

We all knew Barry was gonna bring up the 3-1 lead when Steph came up.

I know he had to deal with injuries quite a bit, but I don’t know how kawhi doesn’t make the 2010s team

Great content. Comments about Jordan are crazy, because the 90’s has some of the greatest players of all time. Shaq, Tim, MJ, Hakeem, Magic (who won a MVP), Kobe, Barkley, Drexler, etc… like it’s ok to admit Jordan is the greatest. Talk about Lebron not winning a ring without creating his own teams, or Kareem benefiting from a weak era and playing alongside great players.

Much respect for having Timmy as the best player of the 2000s🙌🙌

Bro says MJ didn’t play great teams but turns around and says LeBron is the GOAT for dominating the Pacers and Raptors.

This is actually a very well thought out and explained video. Kudos

I'm surprised to see you pick CP3 over Dwayne Wade in the 2010s. I admit I'm only a casual fan, but Wade always seemed to be the better clutch guy and he put up relatively good numbers, at least from what I remember. After seeing this video, I'm amazed at how much talent was in your 1960s all-decade team. Simply wow.

I love that your videos are hilarious, but also well thought out and put together.

Leaving Kawhi out of the 2010s is crazy. 2 finals mvps and 2 defensive player of the year awards

Bouncing on my boys all decade team to this

Another banger from Barry. Love the content

Having Barry say he has Kobe over Tim by a hair sounds CRAZY to me LMAO, saying that as someone with heavy sentimental bias to Kobe I just didn't expect all the sudden respect going off of previous videos.

I always watch your videos while I eat lunch, and you just posted right as my lunch finished cooking 😂

Totally agreed with all youre choices!

Respect Barry! I appreciate your honesty.

A blessing from the heavens, a new barry video

you still own us a deep analysis of kawhi leonard, barry. Great content as always

2020s so far- Giannis, Jokic, Embiid, Curry, Doncic

So happy to see Barry getting sponsors tbh

Pretty good list and I agree with most everything. There are 2 things I would change, the first is I would have Bill Russell as the player of the 60’s. Wilt has the stats, but if you read articles from the time period and listen to interviews with players from that period, most say Russell was superior. Secondly I personally would’ve put KG over LeBron for the 00’s. They each won 1 MVP, but KG had more points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, and also won a title in the decade. LeBron is unquestionably a better player than KG, but KG’s résumé in the 2000’s is exponentially better than LeBron’s.

I love your basketball vids the most man

2020s all-decade team prediction 1.Victor Wembanyama 2.Jokic 3.Jaden Ivey 4.Luka 5. SGA Honorable mentions Shaedon Sharpe Giannis Zion Mobley Tatum

Your tweets brought me to your channel, and it’s everything I was hoping for! Keep it up!

So many jabs about the KD stuff and not even a peep about creating the creation of the super team of superteams in Miami or the choke job against Dallas. Interesting...

Barry would you consider doing a video of the 2nd team all decade teams from these decades? I think that raises several interesting debates. The 2nd team all 80s team would have a few shooting guards most likely like Moncrief and English.

Obviously Lebron had played more than Kareem at age 38, he didn't have to spend four years in college. If Kareem had ben able to enter the draft out of high school Lebron probably would be a couple seasons of the points record.

The LeBron meat riding is insane lmao

that Gilbert Arenas joke was killer

Was hoping to see Steve nash on the list for the 2000s but I understand why you picked the others. How do you feel about Steve nash and what the suns were in the 2000s. Would love to see a video about the run n gun suns and what went wrong and all that jazz.

it really is unfair to both Arizin and Wilt that their careers didn't overlap more

Hey Barry! Love the videos, Had an idea, it would cool for you to rate the best USA basketball teams, and finally settle the debate between the dream team of 92 and the redeem team of 2012. My 2 cents on it would have been awesome if Dwight was healthy to be apart of that '12 team, they might have been the key in my opinion in putting them over the 92 team.

Not much to quibble with here. Nice work! 👍

“The beginning of the warriors quote on quote ‘dynasty’ began…” bffr going to 6 finals in 8 years and winning 4 of them IS a dynasty whether you like the team or not

great video Barry!

While I completely agree with Barry, the only thing that irks me is his main argument for Lebron over Jordan being how weak the 90s were when we all saw how weak the East was during the 2010s. Obviously it’s not a clear cut answer and that’s why the debate will exist long after I’m dead, but his main argument seems to be doing the one thing he hates and that’s overlooking one person’s situation to prop up another.

Hey Barry! Youre thoughts on Kevin Love for overrated,underrated or properly rated?

Pretty solid listing! I'm wondering if there can be a case for Isiah Thomas to make the list in the 1980's, but you can't really get rid of any of the other 5 people mentioned

That 60's team is Hella nice, would be hard to beat

More people gotta be like Barry just straight up facts

It's funny how Barry wants the fans to have good faith when it comes to talking about anybody not named Labron James lol 😂😂😂😂😂 Get that shit outta here

I don't think anyone minds Lebron being included in any basketball great list except for the list of top 1. Dude is a baller.

Can you make your predictions for the rest of the 2020’s? I’d love to see what you think

God bless you Barry

Imagine being a Michael Jordan hater

Barry you should make some weekly nba reviews and playoff series reviews

Barry we need an updated top ten nba players oat video like how you did with the top ten QBs oat

I pushed the subscribe button...a long time ago. I have yet to regret any video.

We need an all time 5 round draft please!! Every player in their prime

BARRY🐐

I think I would’ve given Kawhi the spot in the 2010s over CP3. Two championships, two Finals MVPs, and one of the greatest perimeter defenders and playoffs performers of all time. CP3 does have consistency over him.

Bob Lanier reminds me of a less athletic Joel embidd, but with more hustle and a chip on his shoulder

arenas and ja would've been a great sweet shootin backcourt for the washington bullets 😢

I find it funny that certain people will scream context for certain things and leave them off for others, such as how Bron never beat a superteam or dynasty same way MJ never did and Bron always had the better team when he won which MJ actually had the worse team in 98, just little things like this is annoying. Both are great and if you're gonna say shit like MJ didn't beat dynasties in the 80s say the same for Bron in the finals.

I had to look up a Pettit interview 😂 he really does sound like foghorn leghorn

It's so weird that one of the best NBA KZfaqrs is a guy named Barry McCockiner 💀

Barry is omnipotent

Barry we need that updates top 12 players all time man

what a fkn legend paul arizin is, bro said ight imma head out and served in the marine corps for 2 years and then came back for like 8 more years

Remember when NBA 2K10 had these decade teams? Good times.

Wait, 90s era with Hakeem, drexler, Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, Tim Duncan, Shaq etc was not weak. By that logic, in 20 years time the new NBA fans are going to call lebron and his era weak. Talk about "context" without using one🤦🏾‍♂️ plus I see so much disrespect to the older eras. Lebron wouldn't have been lebron if bill Russell, Kareem, magic, bird and Jordan did not do what they did

Great video

Awesome video. Hats off to you, but i digress.

This video was an amazing bday present Barry!

who would you pit on the 20's team (so far)? steph? giannis? jokic?

Lebron getting swept really broke you huh?

is it me, or does his voice sound different in the beginning?

Nice shoutout to Blue Chips, forgotten Bball movie

In my eyes, lebron is the goat but 🥩 riding is crazy

I fucking died when Barry said oh well Steph Curry should be player of the decade 😂

I'm still not convinced this Draft Kings ad is not him trolling us

Good video but the CP3 pick is a real head scratcher for me. I wouldnt have him top 10 for the decade, i get he had great regular seasons but they never found team success in olayoffs and individually he was never MVP while other guards were better during this stretch individually.

aside from the 2017 and 2018 warriors which teams has lebron faced that were better than the 80s celtics or the bad boy pistons? i lm genuinely curious

All Time Starting 5 Basketball Channels: Barry McCockiner Thinking Basketball Clayton Crowley BBALLBREAKDOWN AFunkyDiabetic

Didn't you have a finals prediction video? I can't seem to find it now.

Thank you Barry, respecter of the troops!

Crazy to think about how drastically this list would change if you shift the parameters by five years (1975-85, 85-95, etc) who would you take between MJ and Shaq for 95-05? Could be an interesting video

16:47 Thanks for the context reminding us LeBron haters that he's had infinitely more minutes than anyone else to rack up career records! Keep straw-manning Jordan's supporters while farcically calling the 1990's a "weak era!"

In this video, famous KZfaqr and everyone's favorite LeBron Stan slobbers all over him yet again. 😂

Thanks Barry my wife’s boyfriend loved this video!

I would love to see a football version but I also acknowledge that it would be mich harder to make.

9:01 i think bill Russel would be like ben wallace or maybe Rudy golbert in today’s nba, maybe a bit better

We need more information about this LeBron guy, sounds like he had an interesting career 🤔

As a Thunder fan, please make a 50min video about KD. I'll even give you additional things to think about.. -we had a powerful tornado around ~2011 that wrecked Blanchard/ Bridgebreek. Tornado skipped my house but threw the next a house a block down several miles. Talking apocalypse the day after with roads blocked by everything you fan think of. I met KD that day, he helped with the cleanup, as did many others. He was genuine then. -Met him again, as he used. To bike around Lake Hefner. He was a quiet, genuine dude early on. Met WB too who was... well, tells it how it is kind of genuine. Both were cool young, never met KD again but did have WB meet my daughter in like 2014/ 2015 where he ignored me and was super cool to her (natural Dad kinda vibe). KD walked by by didn't give a crap, almost seemed annoyed... sucked since I felt I kinda knew him. -in OKC we had a KD restaurant a few months before he left next to a Toby Keith restaurant. Like OVER THE TOP fandom/ self loathing that felt kinda cheesy, but hey I loved the man and felt there's no way he leaves as why make a shrine to yourself then duck out? He did though. Only stayed open for a few months before it got vandalized after he left then changed to a generic company without the KD stuff. Recommend looking into that because it's a weird piece to the pie.

Im in "MJ>LBJ" camp, but ur jokes about goats are goated

Wade over Dirk Kawhi over CP3 Otherwise I mostly agree.

Chris Paul over Kawhi, or Westbrook for the all decade 2010s is hilarious. I agreed with most of what you said, until I saw Chris Paul.

Nice Video But how does this affect LeBron’s legacy?

I think you're really underrating the talent level of the 1970s Elvin Hayes was just an amazing player and there were other great guys to like Bob dandridge and McAdoo. Also there was Dave cowens and John havlicek. It was a very talented decade it just didn't have the superstars besides Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

We have to ignore the past greats to prop up the modern era's. How impressive is Jordan's chips when compared to Mikan and Russell. Shaq's dominance compared to Wilt's. LeBron's and Russ triple doubles to Oscar's. Curry's shooting compared to West or Maravich's. Lack of recorded stats,games and accolades make it easier also for modern player to seen like they have unique resumes. Also the efficiency would change if they played the modern game because they have modern training. Never got the knock
