Before you leave a comment. I made this video 7 months before mike korzemba made this what if. So no, i didn't steal it from korzemba. Nor did he steal it from me. This what if idea is a well known one. Nobody owns it, so nobody stole from anyone. Thank you
Good call man. I will say this. It would be very fun to compare on how different on how you and Korzemba took this what if. I might do a video and credit both of you if I do it.
Rusty Buckets I really like how you two do these what ifs and how you two keep track of everything and how the players stats would have changed if this was to happen
The NFL did this wild video of what if the Cowboys didn’t pass on Randy Moss in the 1998 and it pretty much went down a rabbit hole of they get Bill Belicheck after he resigned from the Jets, they draft Tom Brady in 2000 and Brian Urlacher in 2001 and win a bunch of championships. So this is essentially just the same type of revisionism.
darko wouldn't go to Cleveland since they have to many big men. they would actually take melo and the pistons would still take darko. the nuggets get wade and bosh still goes to the raptors.
I laughed so hard that durant went to Cleveland in this alternate story, that's some funny irony. but this was hella good man, I love this kind of videos
This Magic team would've beaten the 2010-2011 Mavs because the Magic was already Lebron's team and he already won a championship. He wouldn't have such a meltdown as he did in real life; that happened because he was still on the wall about it being his team or Wade's team and playing into being the villain, which affected his demeanor and his game. Without that uncertainty, there is no "Lebron falling apart" in those Finals.
This is a great video but some playoff moments were a little inaccurate, like how the Mavs still beat LeBron, the main reason most people think that LeBron didn't play well is because of the pressure of haters of him joining the Heat, but since he stayed loyal to the Magic, that would've most likely not been the case, and for the 2012-13 season, ur telling me that LeBron, Leonard, and Chris Bosh would've still not gone to the Finals, that was arguably LeBron's best year
This was my favorite what if scenario and I completely agree worth everything except the 2011 finals because I believe lebron wouldn't have chocked since he had already proven that he can win a ring
*opens a lebron what if video with 4 clips of kobe bryant* obvious kobe fan is obvious also shout out to my ''thumbnail designer'' who gave me a shitty thumbnail for this video than blocked me on twitter after asking for him to make some changes. i really appreciated that. i really liked how he kept my money as well. anyways. follow me on twitter-twitter.com/RustyBUCKETS321
There's an alternate reality where this really happened, and that's where I want to live. LeBron on the Magic would've been better for him and Orlando than him on the Cavs and Heat.
As a Chris Paul fan, i really wished this happened. If it did then people would put him in the top 5 point guards of all time list with him being a two time champion
HughieFoley0105 appreciate it man. I have more what ifs that you can check out. The unfotunate part about having such a small channel is tough videos to make don't get the exposure i feel they deserve. But i love making them and the channels growing so im all good.
Derrick Rose was on track to perhaps being one of the best point guards of all time. He competed against the Miami Big Three in the ECF. He would’ve definitely gotten MVPs later on in his career if he didn’t get injured.
George hill jameer Nelson LeBron Chris bosh and Marc gasol don't win against the Mavs even though LeBron would've learned how to play with other stars.
LoganBrock4 nah ima basketball fan , yeah but the pressure of winning in miam isnt there and you cant tell me that wasn't the biggest factor on lbj choking
JadenMilly_ he choked away a 2-1 lead in cLeveLand shooting 3/14, 0-4 from 3 vs Boston in 2010. And he had Shaq go for over 20, lebron wouldnt quit turning the damn ball over either dribbling it off his foot, traveling overthrowing guys. What's your excuse there?
I think this story is based on an actual NBA 2k simulation... so no one can really argue about it... too much difference, props for the maker of this one, I enjoyed it
What if LeBron was drafted by DETROIT?! OH MY GOODNESS!!! He would have 5 titles the first five years of his career and would very quickly be considered the goat!
Only disagreement is gs was really high on curry even before the draft, so im pretty sure they'd still take him at 6 , they had him higher than rubio and flynn
As a Blazer fan, I hate this video! You took LA and Brandon Roy away from us...oof! But we don't get Dame either? This is the worst alternate history ever!
made it a while ago so I don't quite remember, but it was a long ass time. I have more what ifs on my channel that also took way to damn long to make that you could check out if you want. also thank you
Imagine if LeBron did go to college and us fans are wondering the "what if" LeBron never went to college scenario... I'm kinda curious to how they will look at LeBron's future in that way.
I just noticed something, if the Cavs still had Roy, why would they draft Harden. I think that Roy was still an all star at that time, so,that would make Harden redundant, unless he plays point, which would be crazy.

Rusty Buckets bruh this was a dope ass video. Extremely factual scenarios. You just got a new sub, and if you need any original music for your vids lmk, I can whip up some original production
The lakers cant go back to finals due to not getting pau gasol in trade since his brother ends up in orlando when they were initially traded for each other
Ryun Sayaovang marc was a 2nd round pick. He himself wouldnt have been a deal breaker. Whoever the lakers drafted instead of marc would be traded in the deal. Not like marc was known to be that good at the time
Rusty Buckets memphis would not habe trade pau jnless they got marc he was the dealbreaker in that deal, because they had to take kwame brown also, they wantes marc for pau or no trade, since no marc the lakers ecentually dont get cp3 either since pau was a key piece in that trade
TriggerTrey ill admit i didnt pay enough attention to salary in this what if. But u have to consider the fact that kawhi and gasol wouldn't have been as good on the magic with less touches. And i think they could afford lebron cp3 and bosh if they go into the luxury
Rusty Buckets No, they wouldn't even come close. Orlando is not at ALL a large market, so their HARD CAP back then was around like 65 million, there's not even a chance that they would be able to afford SIX really good players
I didn't forget anything. t-mac was traded before the season started for Steve francis, idk if it was before or after the draft, but if Dwight Howard didn't make him stay, theres no reason Lebron would make him stay
This is such a good, but incomplete/one-sided video... Everything is thought out only so that major markets get anything going for them, but many valuable franchises are just forgotten...
Paper Boat that's really for the sake of making the video shorter. If i tried to cover 15+ teams in one what if over the span of 15 years the video would be 3 damn years long
Makes sense. But still, with no Kyrie, the first guy to go play PG for the Magic in this scenario would not be CP3. It'd be Bledsoe, LeBron's good friend. Which, for example, spares the Suns the 3 starting point guard mess and has them keeping Isaiah Thomas, Dragic, or both, and stuff like that... Anyways, thanks for the response.
DUNCAN, Iverson, bird , magic , admiral , hakeem, Jordan, Shaq... all hooped. but it's a testament to the kings will power to still make a name and raise a family and raise banners coming out as a kiddo.
Kawhi was never good at shooting until Gregg taught him in the span of 7 months This info came from Gregg himself So Kawhi was Supposedly just good at dunking
there are a lot of trades during off seasons if you really think about it. It's just the maker of this can't really put all the details or it will be helluvah work...
Before you leave a comment. I made this video 7 months before mike korzemba made this what if. So no, i didn't steal it from korzemba. Nor did he steal it from me. This what if idea is a well known one. Nobody owns it, so nobody stole from anyone.
Thank you
Good call man. I will say this. It would be very fun to compare on how different on how you and Korzemba took this what if. I might do a video and credit both of you if I do it.
Tell us who wins mvp during each season
what if you didn't speak in monotone?
Rusty Buckets I really like how you two do these what ifs and how you two keep track of everything and how the players stats would have changed if this was to happen
So in other words, you stole Korzembas trademarked idea? Disgusting.
So basically, if Lebron goes to college. Then the east GM's suddenly know how to draft players, and build talent like the west in real life
Trey Dutton right
Trey Dutton there are alot wrong with this video
Orlando is not as bad an organization as you might think
@@Buttington_Headerson lol
The NFL did this wild video of what if the Cowboys didn’t pass on Randy Moss in the 1998 and it pretty much went down a rabbit hole of they get Bill Belicheck after he resigned from the Jets, they draft Tom Brady in 2000 and Brian Urlacher in 2001 and win a bunch of championships. So this is essentially just the same type of revisionism.
darko wouldn't go to Cleveland since they have to many big men. they would actually take melo and the pistons would still take darko. the nuggets get wade and bosh still goes to the raptors.
LIGHTNING AND FIRE 😂😂😂
Yeah I was just thinking that
agree
WKPW Productions what are you talking about
Darko definitely would have went first lol
I laughed so hard that durant went to Cleveland in this alternate story, that's some funny irony. but this was hella good man, I love this kind of videos
MrKimonster12 ikr i just died laughing
KD would be wasted.
This Magic team would've beaten the 2010-2011 Mavs because the Magic was already Lebron's team and he already won a championship.

Giovannic10 I agree check my curry still goes to gs comment bro
Giovannic10 plus there wouldn’t be that pressure on him cause he’s already won one and been to the finals twice, he’s experience
@@22BCMF I am pretty sure it was becoz tyson chandler was on the paint and Marion was defending him in the perimeter.
This was my favorite what if scenario and I completely agree worth everything except the 2011 finals because I believe lebron wouldn't have chocked since he had already proven that he can win a ring
But he might merit a chance to evolve if he was being mocked for choking.
*opens a lebron what if video with 4 clips of kobe bryant*
obvious kobe fan is obvious
also shout out to my ''thumbnail designer'' who gave me a shitty thumbnail for this video than blocked me on twitter after asking for him to make some changes. i really appreciated that. i really liked how he kept my money as well.
anyways. follow me on twitter-twitter.com/RustyBUCKETS321
Rusty Buckets Bro Kobe isn't even good he lost 2 mvps to Steve Nash lmao
do u need directions to a nearby bridge for u to jump off?
Rusty Buckets there is no debate between lebron and Kobe either one is obviously better
Jeyaram lol well that's what happened in the video lol
Rusty Buckets i just supped rusty
The only reason kawhi was traded was because Greg popovich saw something in him. This trade wouldn’t have happened anyways
Cavs would've went melo
2KB exactly bro wilding
2KB yeah cuz they took LeBron as a small forward
Epic TNT Failure b
Doubt it darko was touted as one of the best picks in awhile. People were saying he would be a sure fire first pick if lebron didn't exist
Charles Brannon nah cause actually melo was like the biggest name in the NCAA at the time he just got outshined by lebron
Magic fans you are allowed to cry
There's an alternate reality where this really happened, and that's where I want to live. LeBron on the Magic would've been better for him and Orlando than him on the Cavs and Heat.
Steve Shams you want to live in a reality with a team more toxic then the 17 Warriors? Unless you r a magic fan... you do you
This team is worse then the heat bruh this sounds like a horrifying alternate universe
@@RealCGH Trust me, LeBron in Orlando is 5 rings. People like to play in humid climates and Orlando is that climate.
A team of Lebron,CP3,Bosh,Marc gasol,kawhi would literally be impossible to stop 😂
Lebron shoulda went to college...
Arjay Kinta why
The NBA would of been more intense and amazing, cause there is multiple teams that are actually good
Would of learn how to play an actual system. Not the Lebron system
@@MontChillin nah if Lebron is on the court it will always be the Lebron system
I feel like the magic would have won in 2011 because the only reason LeBron fell apart is because he didn’t know how to win but in this he won before
Ari Pereira Yea and 2011 was their first year together in Miami unlike this scenario
That ghost from Chicago scalabrine caught me off guard and had me crying
Dammnn u deserve way more than 2k subscribers with all that work you put into this
appreciate it man, I have more what ifs on the channel if you want to check those out
I mean that many stars on Lebron's team and no salary cap worries that would 100x worse than the Warriors.
I would probably quit watching the NBA after that.
Jordan NCBornReady and they somehow got beat
Jaiden J. Yeah 😂😂 That was funny!
CP3, LeBron, Kawhi, Bosh, & Gasol with Ray Allen off the bench? that's literally the all star team lol
The warriors would have taken curry anyways because they weren't planning on taking johnny flynn
yeah, found that out after making this video 4 months ago
As a Mavericks fan I would be perfectly fine reliving my life from that point just for this to happen
The lesson here.....stay in school kids!
jovan jones this is in accurate just because of how many different variables there are
A lebron, cp3, and kawhi team would never lose they'd all have 6 to 7 rings
Elias Johnson especially with one of the best centers in the leauge at that time
Elias Johnson exactly definitely would have beat the mags and probably the wolves that one time also would have made pretty much every finals
I love your Vids.. keep rolling with this "What if" stuff 😊
BLN Maniac appreciate it my man
As a Chris Paul fan, i really wished this happened. If it did then people would put him in the top 5 point guards of all time list with him being a two time champion
Monte Campbell hes probobly gonna end up on that list without the chips. At least temporarily before curry could take his place
So the magic get a lineup of all stars.
PG: Chris Paul
SG: Kawhi Leonard
SF: Lebron James
PF: Chris Bosh
C: Marc Gasol
And Lou Williams. They beastly
😂
Wow this was amazingly done for such a small channel, you deserve more subs
HughieFoley0105 appreciate it man. I have more what ifs that you can check out. The unfotunate part about having such a small channel is tough videos to make don't get the exposure i feel they deserve. But i love making them and the channels growing so im all good.
Nice Vid, lots of description throughout, plus being a magic fan, sub
Derrick Rose was on track to perhaps being one of the best point guards of all time. He competed against the Miami Big Three in the ECF. He would’ve definitely gotten MVPs later on in his career if he didn’t get injured.
Jimmy M. He already won an mvp award🤦♂️
George hill jameer Nelson LeBron Chris bosh and Marc gasol don't win against the Mavs even though LeBron would've learned how to play with other stars.
Ben Twilleager you must be a mavs fan😂😂
JadenMilly_ LeBron, Wade, Bosh and Mike Miller's better than Jameer's trash ass, Gasol and Bosh. Dallas still beat them, you must be a lebron fan
LoganBrock4 nah ima basketball fan , yeah but the pressure of winning in miam isnt there and you cant tell me that wasn't the biggest factor on lbj choking
JadenMilly_ he choked away a 2-1 lead in cLeveLand shooting 3/14, 0-4 from 3 vs Boston in 2010. And he had Shaq go for over 20, lebron wouldnt quit turning the damn ball over either dribbling it off his foot, traveling overthrowing guys. What's your excuse there?
LoganBrock4 your definitely reading too much into the individual play , its still a team game dude
I think this story is based on an actual NBA 2k simulation... so no one can really argue about it... too much difference, props for the maker of this one, I enjoyed it
Elton Val Magtibay i mean..... it wasnt 2k simd. But thanks anyways man
This was a sick vid bro Keep it up u jus gained a new subscriber
Dude you're the next Mike Korzemba, can't wait to see your channel blow up soon
thanks a lot man
because mike korzemba is awesome, I won't have any korzemba slander on my channel
You mean break the NBA?
but your videos are too long..
THE ULTIMATE UA-cam CHANNEL TUYC then don't watch them
What if LeBron was drafted by DETROIT?! OH MY GOODNESS!!! He would have 5 titles the first five years of his career and would very quickly be considered the goat!
Danny Cooper or he’d win 2 off the back and have to carry a weak team after the pistons age just like Melo would theoretically
Impossible. If they won the lottery they'd have to give the pick to the Grizzlies.
The cap space on this magic team makes no sense bruv
Only disagreement is gs was really high on curry even before the draft, so im pretty sure they'd still take him at 6 , they had him higher than rubio and flynn
yeah, wasn't aware of that at the time of making this video
You earned a sub my g partly for making my magic great and also a hectic video
As a Blazer fan, I hate this video!
You took LA and Brandon Roy away from us...oof!
But we don't get Dame either? This is the worst alternate history ever!
Westbrook, Wade, Butler, Aldridge, and Draymond Green :O
As a Bulls fan, this would have been amazing!
See the only problem with the whole scenario is that the magic front office would have to be competent and cap space would probley not work
Dyl man the krazy guy that's true
How long did it take to make this cause you did a really good job
made it a while ago so I don't quite remember, but it was a long ass time. I have more what ifs on my channel that also took way to damn long to make that you could check out if you want. also thank you
Its so amazing how just one person can change all this stuff.
butterfly effect
As a Melo fan, I wish he would've gotten selected by the Pistons... I'm also from Michigan 😢
MarLonLon same bro😪
Dwayne wade as a piston would be interesting
Hey dude your content is really good u earned a sub I will be here to watch all vids man keep it up
Comedic Effects hey thanks man, it's comments like this that help motivate me to do what i do
LEBRON TO THE MAGIC WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE!
Imagine if LeBron did go to college and us fans are wondering the "what if" LeBron never went to college scenario... I'm kinda curious to how they will look at LeBron's future in that way.
I'm only 5 minutes n and fuckin great job man. I love that people like u put so much time n effort into makimg vids for us
Why does it seem Klay and Steph always end up being drafted by the same team in these simulations lol 😂
Brandon Roy never gets shot...
Love this vid man I subbed keep up the great work
thanks man
It was my first video by you but I liked it so I subbed
I just noticed something, if the Cavs still had Roy, why would they draft Harden. I think that Roy was still an all star at that time, so,that would make Harden redundant, unless he plays point, which would be crazy.
The cavs would have wanted melo cause they needed a small forward, they didnt need a power forward
Just subbed, love your what if format, kinds reminds me of the old N"if"L videos
Silas Ingram those are still going, AFAIK
What if Kevin Durant never left OKC?
we will have to wait for years down the line before I do that. can't do a what if on one season lol
Russel Westbrook still chucks up dumb shots
You just earned yourself a subscriber
I was just trying to get you to respond lol great vids
Jackson M ah ok. I respond to 90% of my comments lol. The 10% are the rude ones

Basketball Informer thanks man. I have another great what if on the channel called what if Kobe was traded that id recommend you check out
Rusty Buckets I'm glad the Pistons didn't take Carmelo he wouldn't be as good on that stacked team
King JLH he might not produce as much, but i think he would takea few rings in exchange for less minutes and production
Rusty Buckets bruh this was a dope ass video. Extremely factual scenarios. You just got a new sub, and if you need any original music for your vids lmk, I can whip up some original production
This should have more views
appreciate it man
The lakers cant go back to finals due to not getting pau gasol in trade since his brother ends up in orlando when they were initially traded for each other

Awesome video dude keep up the work
Idk but these seems so spot on how the heck did you do this lol
LOTS of research, editing, writing, and free time lol
Holy shit you're a legend for making this
Yorbzy appreciate that man
Rusty Buckets no problem bro
What happened to the raps pick in 2006
As a TimberWolves fan, this makes me very happy
That Brian Scalabrine had me laughing! Great Video!
Amazing video. I appreciate it, I know it takes a whole lot of time to make.
LeBron’s game approach and skill package would have been even more versatile and comprehensive if he went to college.
Wow. This What If was the definition of a superteam ruled NBA.
So for the magic a salary cap doesn't exist ok 😅
TriggerTrey ill admit i didnt pay enough attention to salary in this what if. But u have to consider the fact that kawhi and gasol wouldn't have been as good on the magic with less touches. And i think they could afford lebron cp3 and bosh if they go into the luxury
Rusty Buckets No, they wouldn't even come close. Orlando is not at ALL a large market, so their HARD CAP back then was around like 65 million, there's not even a chance that they would be able to afford SIX really good players
It’s because they’re magic😉
I have no clue on how Magic lose to timber wolves in 2015.
I feel like this video is hard to make and you did a good job but there's no way the magic and the Timberwolves both have a big 4.
"LeBron wins the MVP, with Derrick Rose being in OKC, which prevented them from being a top seed" I SEE YOU WITH THOSE RHYMES
I honestly hated that that rhymed lol. with that Chris smoove shit
Rusty Buckets 😂🔥
Great video.and channel keep up the great work.
As a Magic fan damn☺️
Forreal. I would accept the Magic sucking for 4 decades after if we could get this scenario.
So you telling me in the 12-13' season CP3, Kawhi, Lebron, Bosh, and Gasol don't make the champions. Very hard to grasp that idea
What happened to Dwight Howard? I didn't hear his name mentioned once in this video.
went to Charlotte for his prime then bounced around the league a while like real life
I see
ITs actually crazy how just because LeBron went to college everything changed. Just makes you think "What If"
Damn why couldn’t u stay one year😭
Great vid, love these videos
I know you are a Bulls fan but this is hilarious
I like this but I doubt Cleveland would be that stupid to draft Darko over melo
Young rockefeller I agree with you draft bums and you forgot Dion waiters
please keep making more what ifs
working on one right now
nice can't wait bro
It's hard to imagine Bosh's health not hurting the magic down the stretch
You forget TMac doesn't leave in 04 with LeBron on the squad. Throws off the entire theory
I didn't forget anything. t-mac was traded before the season started for Steve francis, idk if it was before or after the draft, but if Dwight Howard didn't make him stay, theres no reason Lebron would make him stay
Rusty Buckets well T-Mac said he prefers to have lebron than jordan
Did you sim this out ?? That would be cool
This is such a good, but incomplete/one-sided video... Everything is thought out only so that major markets get anything going for them, but many valuable franchises are just forgotten...
Paper Boat that's really for the sake of making the video shorter. If i tried to cover 15+ teams in one what if over the span of 15 years the video would be 3 damn years long
Makes sense. But still, with no Kyrie, the first guy to go play PG for the Magic in this scenario would not be CP3. It'd be Bledsoe, LeBron's good friend. Which, for example, spares the Suns the 3 starting point guard mess and has them keeping Isaiah Thomas, Dragic, or both, and stuff like that... Anyways, thanks for the response.
I like this shit man....keep em coming brother!!!
DUNCAN, Iverson, bird , magic , admiral , hakeem, Jordan, Shaq... all hooped.
but it's a testament to the kings will power to still make a name and raise a family and raise banners coming out as a kiddo.
Love ur videos bruh
Kawhi was never good at shooting until Gregg taught him in the span of 7 months
This info came from Gregg himself
So Kawhi was Supposedly just good at dunking
this what if created a ton of superteams its like every team is a contender in today's nba
This was the greatest video ever - an Orlando Magic fan
well thats just how the draft position worked out lol, if I was being bias he would be on the bulls lol
The Wizards would not have any talent wouldn't they have the 1st pick at least one year
there are a lot of trades during off seasons if you really think about it. It's just the maker of this can't really put all the details or it will be helluvah work...
The beginning editing part is hilarious
A team with LeBron, Marc Gasol, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen, Chris Paul, Kawhi Leonard.
*so realistic*
I love how Orlando got so good they had starters on the bench
LeBron would have still ended up in Cleveland somehow because of how much he wanted to play for his hometown
how do u get this type of information I wanna use it for my channel
MRD 3D basketball reference, Wikipedia, Google. that's pretty much it
Rusty Buckets ight well I really enjoyed it keep doing these I subscribed
appreciate it man
I still miss my old Bulls lineups with Rose, but Russ, LA, Wade, Jimmy, Draymond... Damn.
