He was the first guy from our city to reach the Finals in the modern era. Him and Rondo are the only ones to do it so far but I always hated Rondo for being a Wildcat and a Celtic lol
I’m 43 years old from NY. To this day Allan Houston has the best jump shot form I’ve ever seen and I modeled my jumper after his. He was a great Knick and an awesome character guy. Humble and hard working. I’ll never forget the Allan Houston years!!
Allan Houston was my favorite player as a kid even though my game wasn’t like his, I admired his smoothness on the court, and he definitely was a prototype for a professional, never seen him angry, always carried himself with grace.. my favorite game of his was when he dropped 53 in LA on the Lakers in 03.. sneaky dunker too, dunked on T-Mac crazy one time.. one of our greatest Knicks players, injuries just did him in..
@StunnedGrowth Glad you Are Making A to One of the Best New York Knicks Shooting Guard Of All Time Which Was Allen Houston Bruh Shooting Game Was On Another Level Omg He was Like Unguardable Keep This Up Love Videos Man
I remember when I was in P.s.205 in the Bronx and the Knicks players came and I meant allan Houston he saw me sitting by myself because my teachers wouldn't let me come meet them because I was acting out and he sat down and talked to me and gave me tickets for a few games I will never forget that he will always be one of my favorite Knicks ever
Yes he was one of the best shooters from 3 and the free throw line in that era in the NBA, Disappointment no he made it to the league put up Good Numbers had a 11 year Career got to the finials accumulated Generational wealth for his Family tree kept his clean cut stand up Image both on and off the court. as stated he had one of the smoothest Jump shots. Injuries and other peoples expectations. I was a fan of his from his Tenn days till he retired
I don't think he was a disappointment he had a decent career those injuries got him but he lived the dream had decent numbers you might as well do Charlie ward and Chris childs
Allan Houston still one of my favorite's all time. I met him as a kid at a Courtsey Lincoln dealership in the Bronx in the 90's. Nice guy hell of a basketball player. It's a shame he had knee problems.
Definitely one of my favorite guys back then! I loved how his shot looked and how he was just smooth on the court! Dam Shame his injuries cut him down early! Great Episode!!😎👍🏽👍🏽
I remember when the Knicks were shopping for a SG and were looking at both Houston and Reggie Miller. Miller, who had killed the Knicks previously were the fan's choice but I really wanted Houston. I knew Miller, who was 31 at the time, had reached his ceiling, but with Houston we werent sure where that ceilong was because he was outstanding during his last season in Detroit. I loved Houston in NY. No, he never became the high volume scorer that people predicted he could become but he was a very good #2 scorer who hit some of the most clutch shots for the team in my lifetime. He's one of those rare guys who will never have to buy his own drink in NYC.
JC, have you considered doing a Stunted Growth series on current players in the league? You could not only detail their stunts but what must happen for them to improve. I nominate Kevin Knox as the first feature. Let's get it. Peace.
Nice vid. I played against Al in college (those Tenn teams were beyond terrible) and he was as smooth as they come. But he didn't have that something extra that he needed to separate himself from the pack. Peace.
That Jumpshot form was so NASTY, man. In the best way possible using that term, as a baller. Just.....NASTY. That is the textbook form, follow through, foot placement. Just everything. That form is Top Tier. As for the topic of the video. Son was wild talented, just didn't have the killer instinct. Period.
Yo JC...still rockin with you Bro...love the content...my young nephews love the channel..i turned them on to it..just something i thought would help them...but..with that said...what happened to SCOTTY THURMAN FROM ARKANSAS?...thanks for all you do..peace
Love Houston, but he was Khris Middleton of the 90s. I don't think he was a "disappointment," the Knicks just had unrealistic expectations & in typical Knick fashion, gave him a bad contract, not to mention the injuries that hampered his already average athleticism. It's a shame we couldn't keep Spreewell or have a healthy McDyess along with Houston, things would've been very different.
It was a massive overpay. Houston was barely a top 10 sg in the 90s and not even the best sg on the team. No one would have given him anything close to what the knicks gave him.
Ewing went to one NBA final as well...is he a disappointment? Allan Houston was not flamboyant and aggressive as a Latrell Sprewell or even John Starks, people wanted him to be a "New Yorker". Watching him and hearing people perspective of him, I just knew they were looking for something different from him just because he played most of his career in New York. I had so many arguments with my family, uncles, schoolmates about the fact that he was enough, he was great, just mellow, a bit subdued in his personality. I stand by the underdog because to see them win and flourish is the greatest thing of all... and Allan Houston did just that. At guard 6'6 from Tennessee, No. 20... Allan Houston
This was my favorite player in the 90s. Wasnt crazy fast or explosive, but was a gym rat shooter, excellent at getting his spots on the floor. It was injuries that got him. Salute. Great video!!!
One of the best shooters in the league during the 90s. I think the injuries combined with ginormous expectations the New York media put on him because of his contract kept him from being even better that what he was. On a side note Tennessee and UConn have to be the only schools where the women’s basketball team is more popular than the men’s team even though both men’s programs at both schools have produced great pros. Maybe consider doing a stunted growth on Chamique Holdsclaw?
Maybe the smoothest Jumper of all time (phonebooth, if you know) he would be maybe equivalent to a bigger Bradley Beal if he was playing now, not to plug anyone else, but he recently did an article on players tribune about going to NY..appreciate this one
Houston was basically a straight jumpshooter who for most of his career had just enough bounce to shoot over most defenders. He had to shoot over them because he didn't have the quickness to beat people off the dribble or create tons of space for himself. He didn't run screens like Reggie Miller or have a post up game like MJ. Most of his shots came off a series of jab fakes and his offensive game was easy to read as a defender. Check any footage of him. Majority of his shots were off iso and well covered with a hand in his face. It's a testament to his sheer shooting ability that he's able to average 20 points on what are mostly tough, well-defended jumpshots. Problem is, a taller, athletic defender (think Tracy McGrady) that can block/bother his shot would straight up shut him down, as he didn't have a secondary go-to skill. And that doomed him eventually once that knee surgery robbed him of what little athleticism he had. By 2004/2005 he could no longer get his shot up over anyone and was effectively done. In today's game, he might still have had value as a spot up 3-point specialist.
Houston had one hell of a jumper One of the purest forms I’ve ever seen in my life Kobe Bryant Ray Allen etc It’s a shame injuries stunted his growth He played professional basketball and played 10 years in his NBA career
I was born in Seattle in 1973. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. I read that, in the summer of 1994, Detroit "was tempted" to send Allan Houston, Mark Macon, "and a draft pick" to Portland, for Harvey Grant! That was after Harvey Grant was a disappointment in Portland. And then, all Allan Houston wound up doing the following season, was shooting 44% from three-point range, 85% from the line, and putting up very nice scoring numbers....Plus, Portland needed a 2 guard, after trading away Clyde Drexler later that season. What a great "heir apparent" Allan Houston would have been for the Blazers!
Could ya do Malcolm Grant dude who’s from my town (Brooklyn NYC) Gary Ervin Darryl “Truck” Bryant. Idk if u did any of dem but I’m jus putting it out there.. Delroy James, Malcolm‘a teammate in HS.. #Brooklyn These are the guys I 🏀 against in AAU, open runs etc
Stunted growth on VERNON MAXWELL despite him winning a ring with Olajawan. He was like a west coast John Starks whom was a growth Spurt candidate in the 90s.
Mr. Stunted Growth: I have a KNICKS 20 HOUSTON jersey! I love shooting Allan Houston 20-Footers, and Allan Houston 3-Pointers, when I wear that jersey. Ball-Handling: A. Passing: A.
I would say NO but I get it cause he said multiple times he wasn’t trying to be anyone or anything but himself. I met him once. He’s super humble and laid back. We’ll talk to you like you’re his neighbor and he’s helping a lot.
Been a Knicks fan since 1999 & I still think Sprewell was the better player, he played much better D...He came up big in the playoffs & would put the team on his back when they needed him to do so...He even played w/ a broken bone in his feet & still played @ a high level...No disrespect to Houston of course *Just my two cents*
Houston best moment was in the 1 Round Knicks VS Heat in 1999 when he hit the buzzer beater 1 Great Moment for Knicks fans... then got $120 million for next 5 years without doing anything...SMH
I can't disagree with your reasons for Allan Houston's stunted growth! Allan Houston had one of the sweetest mid range J's in NBA history! The Knicks didn't make noise after the 99 finals run because Ewing was finished, Sprewell and Houston was on the decline. That era of the Knicks was going to go as far as Sprewell and Houston was going to take them.
