Amazing !

I LOVE....1970,s era NBA/ABA Hoops 🏀🏆

Congratulations! You picked two great basketball players I respect and admire. I missed all of Dr. J's career in the ABA. I caught Havlicek's career on Sundays starting around 1974. Both these players were peak performers and found ways to help their teams win. I'd like to think Dr. J's 1983 NBA championship punctuated his greatness. He was at the end of his career and still made the most memorable dunk in a NBA championship game. Since I didn't see the Doctor play in the ABA I never assumed he scored all his points on dunk shots. When I see his ABA clips he had a mid-range jump shot to go with the dunks and layups. I mentioned the mid-range jump shot because I learned basketball without a three point line. All my favorite teams, the Bullets, the Knicks, and Celtics had players that could shoot jumpers and free throws. Boston was the team that seemed to be the team on TV more than my Bullets. The big boys in the neighborhood on the basketball court games mirrored the Celtics. Hondo was well admired by them and it trickled down to me. Hondo was a great. Dr. J was great. As they aged the fans could breath. Those guys would always make you take a deep breathe when they were about to operate. Great job, Uncle Hays.

Boo Lakers. Go Celtics!

Even people in Minnesota forget we had the White Sox too, long long ago. They were the original St.paul Saints before moving to Chicago in the early 1900's

Do a video "Why the Lakers left Detroit"

Imagine if Bill Russell actually ended up on the Lakers 😂

That Iowa corn field story is nuts!

You had to have balls to ride on them old ass planes lol

The Los Angeles Lakers have 12 NBA championships

22 Lakes in LA lets go

Kobe wouldve never stayed in Minnesota

You got a sub. Really good research and well put together

6:26 what are your thoughts on the inverse of this question: When old fans trash on the modern NBA?

Correction about Bob Short. He was the treasurer of the National Democratic Committee, not the Treasurer of the United States, during LBJ’s Presidency.

Well, first of all, when you're comparing TWO players, it's "greater," not "greatest." And without watching ANY of this, I'll tell you who the greater player was and they called him "Hondo" and he wore #17. Dr. J. had all the street flash and raw athletic power, but Havliceck's versatility and tenacity on the defensive end certainly gives him the edge. I don't think I remember Hondo dunking the ball even once in his 16 year NBA career, but look at his playoff statistics from 1965 through 1975 to see how great he was. He played in an era where they didn't record steals but he surely would have led the NBA more than a few times in his 16 year career if they had. Eight NBA championships, four ALL-NBA first team selections, four second team selections, and let's not forget his NCAA championship at Ohio State in 1960 either. Dr. J. played in the ABA during his prime years and of course was great, but no matter what anyone says, they really didn't play defense and it's not really fair to compare these players anyway. Why not Hondo and Rick Barry (not even close) or Dr. J. vs. Billy Cunningham? Of course Hondo played with the greatest player in NBA history, the immortal "Eagle With a Beard," Bill Russell, so who knows what he would have accomplished had he been the "man" for the first half of his illustrious career? He's still the greatest "6th man" ever and as far as I know the ONLY player in NBA history to be selected as BOTH a guard and a forward to an ALL-NBA first or second team. John was a pretty unique player and we'll not see his likes again.

As a Minnesotan sports fan i say F*ck LA!

Nice video, however you showed the Minneapolis Armory but the Lakers actually played at the Minneapolis Auditorium.

1st minority owner refused to give Milan the money, forced out, went on to start a NFL franchise, 2nd minority owner advised they move to LA, only to be shot down then move to LA years later, Ben was the problem

The Bullets-Cavs series was a doozy. Anyone who listened to Joe Tait call it knows what I mean.

Funny that when Wilt got the kind of help that Russell was afforded all those years, he turned out to be the superior player with the superior team isn't it? #GOAT

Thanks for this one. I caddied at the country club where Mikan was a member. Was in his 4 some once that I can remember. I thought it was wrong that L. A. kept the Laker name.

New meaning to Wide Clyde Lovellette…

stay strong fam, just found your channel and love the content

I hate the Lakers but that was good none the less.

Well done. Thanks

"21-22 years old in the NBA playing the sport I love making tons of money, but I wasn't happy" is crazy

7:53 Fun fact: Bud Grant (the guy in the middle), a Pro Football Hall of Famer and Viking legend was also played for the Lakers in Minneapolis from 1949-1951.

Lakers suck!!!

That was a good list. For me it is 1.Steph and Klay 2. Dumars and Thomas 3. Frazier and Munroe 4. RIP and Chauncey 5. Fish and Kobe

Great story! Many fans don't know the history of their team, and organizations like the Hawks, the Royals, the Warriors and the Syracuse Nationals probably don't realize that their teams didn't start in the cities they play in now!

Kyrie & Luka need to make this list

Not sure if Adams belongs on this list as he had several good seasons. Just happened to explode that one time.

10. (Insert whoever here) 9. Jason Kidd / Vince Carter 8. Jerry West / Gail Goodrich 7. Chauncey Billups / Rip Hamilton 6. Kobe Bryant / Derek Fisher 5. Walt Frazier / Earl Monroe 4. Isaiah Thomas / Joe Dumars 3. Tony Parker / Manu Ginobili 2. Luka / Kyrie Irving 1. Steph Curry / Klay Thompson

At one point when I became a Lakers fan in the old Chamberlain, Gail Goodrich days, I thought the name came from the acronym L.A.-er, and added a “k” just to make it catchy.

Dope story I’m born in MN an I know the Lakers was in are city but didn’t know the story

The team at the time knew they could do more drugs in LA then Minneapolis 😆

Its so sad to see that todays NBA fans underestimate both of these greats.

Outstanding video!!! Oscar and Jerry are so close, you really can't go wrong with either choice. Like Bird and Magic, Oscar and Jerry came into the league together, led the 1960 Olympic team together, and have always been linked together historically. They are both all-time iconic players, and along with Elgin Baylor, both have been hugely under-appreciated as the years have gone by. Videos like this are important to inform the current basketball loving public about just how fabulous both these legends were. BTW, another great comparison video would be Larry Bird vs Rick Barry. History will always regard Bird as an all-time, top ten player. But to those who saw Rick Barry at his peak, they know that he was the equal to Larry Bird in every way as a player. He was a lights out shooter, an unstoppable overall scorer, a spectacular passer, and when he decided to be, he was an effective defender Rick has been harmed historically because of his prickly, difficult personality, and his amazing ability to piss off referees, teammates, coaches, and the media. Yet on the court, there was nothing that Bird could do that Rick Barry couldn't do, and on just as high a level.

Sixers went to the Finals 80, 82 and 83. And that is with a Bird led Celtics. Not bad.

Fantastic video! Learned a lot. Don’t know about the Detroit Gems. Mikan, the OG GOAT

People were built different back then

Professional sports sure has changed alot.
