Hakeem and the Rockets facing off against Jordan and the bulls feels like an all time finals series we missed out on
Maybe one of those would have gone to 7.
@@Bluebirdfalling MJ wouldn't allow that to happen.
@@makis7383 Yeah,Jordan would lose in 6...😁
M M couldn’t have said that any better
@@mArko-zt6pw lol at u really thinking the bulls would've lost in 6 cus the Knicka took the Rockets to 7 which they should've won if it wasn't for John Starks in game 6 and beat the magic cus once they blew that 25 point lead an lost game 1 they confidence was gone an they never thought they could win plus they only made it to the finals cus MJ was rusty cus we all know what happen the next season.
How do you come up with fire videos time after time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love sharing my NBA knowledge and love when people become learn more about the league. My passion. Thanks you supporting
Wilt chamberlain is the greatest athlete of all time
you ahould learn the difference between greatest and best
we can t say IN THE HISTORY OF SPORT S every sport is different we cant say OH MICHAEL JORDAN WAS BETTER THAN LIONEL MESSI or idk CRISTIANO RONALDO IS BETTER THAN LEBRON JAMES but rest of the video was great and i agree with this list.

*Ranking the 9 best players in the 90 behind michael jordan
Facts
Yeah? Are you dumb? What else is it going to be? The title says "10 best players in the 1990s"
Ranking: Jordan, Olajuwon, after that, I don't know.
Jordan actually missed out a total of almost 4 seasons in 90s, somehow still won 6.
naw 2 and a half 94, half more than half of 95, and 99
Pippen is too high. Ewing, Shaq, and Stockton can be considered higher than him easily.
Crazy that Scottie Pippen lead his team to 55 wins without Jordan.
so did Horace......when he left, they were losing
Pop G he was third in the MVP race too awesome player
Horace Grant and BJ Armstrong were all stars that year. Pippen got a lot of help.
@@markjackson6431 Pippen was barely .500 when Horace left
Pop G the bulls literally designed a team for the post-jordan phase. One of the most overrated seasons ever. Put Jordan on that team and they win the finals obviously
Can you make an underrated list for this decade. The 1990s were very stacked in talent. So much to where it needed atleast 6 new expansion teams to give players time to shine.
Xclusive AF Dumars,and Richmond should be on that list.
@@StoneGone Kevin Johnson is high on that list too.
You need at least top 25 for 90's best player list. Too stacked with great talents.
@@sinatra222 His dunk on Hakeem is one of my all time favorite in game dunks.
There are quite a lot of really great players that get forgotten like Mitch Richmond, etc.
Wheres Shawn Bradley?? And muggsy bogues I thought they were the best players. Did you even watch space jam why else would the monstars take their powers?
the budget would be astronomical if they got players like Pippen and Shaq
Monstars are full of Ringless supstars
Anoymous Cuz mike you take it to the whole and dominate! Bill, we on defense. Whoa I don’t do defense.
Anoymous Cuz mike you take it to the hole and dominate! Bill, we on defense. Whoa I don’t do defense.
Mj is the greatest player of all time for me✌
Did I ask....
Jk I think so to lol
Maybe give Ewing over Shaq only for the 90's though. But no way is Pippen over Stockton or the big men. Stockton's records will never be broken in assists and steals. Look it up. Lol
Ewing so underrated all he needed was a Richmond caliber player he gets a ring or two. Top 30
Mitch Richmond, Glen Rice, and Tim Hardaway would also be some great honorable mentions. I would also throw Chris Mullin on there, but he wasn't the same after his injuries.
Mitch Richmond was the second best shooting guard from 1993 on 1999 he was on bad teams in Sacramento
@@alwill6289 yep and the best when MJ retired
Drexler took 2 teams to the Finals as the main guy.
Stockton has never done that. No way a sidekick should be ranked over a leader who had the ability to lead a team to the Finals.
I’d put Drexler higher than Pippen also.
Sorry
The 90s era is truly LOADED of talented NBA players..
Nevertheless there's only one GOAT.
Yeah, Alex Caruso
Ewing should be higher than 7
If u take a look at the top 50+ players of the 90's the talent level is truly amazing
I agree, Drexler is arguably Top 5 SG and barely cracks Top 10 in 90s
And if you debate who the goat is Lebron fans say they’re bums smh 🤦🏽♂️
@Colby Martinez MJ, Kobe, Wade, Harden, AI, Drexler...
@Colby Martinez Jerry West ( PG and SG )
1 ) MJ
2 ) Kobe
3 ) Wade
4 ) Iverson
5 ) Drexler ( underrated )
@@makis7383 Iverson better than Harden
Stockton 10 years misses 22 games. Uncatchable records .
A beast defensively.
Players these days take 22 games off from load management per season lol
@@WilsonSy Please make a video. Young fans believe that JORDAN played against short and unsportsmanlike players.
Destroy this myth.
Larry Johnson - Zion Williamson 90s, Rodney Rodgers, Shawn Kemp, Clyde Drexler, Shaq,
Anthony Mason, Dominigue Wilkins, Charles Barkley, David Robinson.
I still would've like to see John or Malone play just half a season without the other. We saw Pippin without MJ. He almost won MVP. Pippin over Malone for me
@@jknumber5138 LMAO Pippen was a distant 3rd in the MVP race. You act like Malone only scored from a Stockton assist, or Stockton only passed to Malone.
IMO the Diesel deserve higher ranking.Great list and entertaining
But he had brilliance in the 90s but it was not his best self

Ewing lower than robinson and maybe shaq gotta have pippen top 6
And Lebum fans still think the 90’s was weak
It was. All the players here sans Pippen and Shaq were from mid 80s draft classes. Drafts in the late 80s/early 90s were horrible, which coupled with expansion made the league much less evenly talented than it is today.
@@Henry-ii1cw Oh no, basketball has changed! It's easy to see why you believe the era was so weak. No mixtapes. No flashy workouts. You can see how different basketball was played back then, seeing as how the talent discrepancy could look so large between the two era's. Neither is necessarily worse or better, but just different. You could argue the old era had more defense, more fundamentals. But the new era has more offense, more evenly individual talented players with more athleticism and fundamentals.
The 90s was very top heavy. The top 20 players are very good but after that the talent isn’t there. The average player nowadays is way better. Also there was no super teams back then for Jordan to face.
Shaquille OatMeal That’s because Jordan’s Bulls WERE the super team the fuck.

Wow chuck was not a allstar for the last three years and was not the same in Houston but still averaged 23 there underated
Bruh shaq should be ahead of pippen... Ewing was a better player too but since pip got rings Ig you could rank him higher. But shaq should still be ahead of pip
Would Gary Payton be #11?
Yes
Reggie Miller
Baby Purn Reggie Miller heavily underrated, he ran into some of the best teams in NBA history in the finals, he battled them by himself, absolutely no fear. He was a warrior. Everyone acts like their is only room for one great shooter. Reggie is a Legend.
U didn’t mention Karl Malone’s 2 MVP’s
Wasn't that one MVP?
Because MJ will take it personally
@@scottiep74 no, 2.
The numbers are all nice and pretty, but the most exciting players to watch in the 90s was Dominique Wilkins and Shawn Kemp imo.

Best player in history of sports ? Im not sure about that one chief...
jij motorp when someone says you’re the Michael Jordan of something, you know what it means. Jordan is the goat .. definitely best player in history of sports.
@@josephdubowski who tf says that. Only Usa and maybe some western countries. I swear half of my family has never heard of his name. In terms of raw numbers, i bet all my moner Pele, L. Messi and CR7 are the most known athletes in the world (Usain Bolt/Carl Lewis too).

gary payton is better then barkley; john stockton & clude were better then shaq in the 90’s
Dev Tickhit yeah I remember when GP accepted his MVP, it was last night in my dream cause that shit never happened irl
crowbe ok but barkley only got to the finals once also blow so many leads in the playoffs plus barkley in the final in 2 key games mad huge defensive mistakes to lose games
@@justtimes9257 Shaq better than Stockton and Clyde.
Allan Houston yeah if you are looking at overall career that’s no question but judging shaq base on era he was great late 90’s & early 00’s plus phil jackson wrote in his book that he was avoiding utah jazz because there basketball iq of that team is elite & his team iq was low
Pg Stockton, Gary Payton
Sg MJ, Drexler, Reggie Miller
Sf Pippen, Penny Hardaway, Grant hill
Pf Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Shawn Kemp, Rodman
C Hakeem, Big Dave, Shaq, Ewing, Mutombo,Alonzo Mourning
When basketball at its best era. Period.
Not a bad list, but no Grant Hill or Gary Payton? Hill was huge in the 90's, plus it was before he had the injury bug in 2000. Gary Payton needs no introduction if you watched NBA Basketball in the 90's.
Great Video Wilson, you nailed the list perfectly! Look forward to future videos
Shaq is to low
I'd definitely put the Admiral ahead of sir charles
I agree.. he was more dominant in the 90s than Charles. Just look at his awards
Was going to comment the same thing. Admiral was much stronger defensively and Barkley was fading at the end of the decade.
Hakeem's numbers actually look better than Jordan's for the decade when you think about it. His rebounds and assists makes up for his minor 6 point difference in ppg
I thought for a second he'll be first😂
No you didn't, you were hoping. @@jknumber5138

Naw if u switch it to where Barkley is 3 and Shaq 4 then u your list is right cus Malone needed Stockton to much then any of the other players needed a teammate that's on this list and by that alone I got to move him down the list
@Rico Wright fam I don't know how folks think Malone was better then Barkley cus if it wasn't for Stockton as Isaiah Thomas pointed out Malone would've never been seen as being a hall of famer. Cus I need folks to name me one thing he was better at than Barkley cus they both ran the floor great, both had post up moves, but where it separates is Barkley was a better ball handler, passer, and rebounder and neither was great at defense so that's a scratch. Also I feel u on Clyde Drexler cus he don't get the credit he deserve but I must let u kno that he did play with other all stars cus Terry Porter went to several all star games as well as Cliff Robinson play in one
10. Clyde Drexler
9. Patrick Ewing
8. Shaquille Oneal
7. John Stockton
6. Scottie Pippen
5. David Robinson
4. Charles Barkley
3. Karl Malone
2. Hakeem Olajuwon
1. Michael Jordan
I would put Drexler either 5th or 6th. He led Portland to the NBA Finals in both '90 and '92. His Portland teams were usually in the top 3 in regular season wins those seasons including the best record in '91 (63 wins). Then, he goes onto Houston and finally gets his ring with Olajuwon in '95. Drexler was the second best shooting guard from the late 80s into the mid 90s.
1 ) MJ
2 ) Hakeem
3 ) Karl Malone
4 ) Charles Barkley
5 ) David Robinson
6 ) Patrick Ewing
7 ) Shaquille O"Neal
8 ) Clyde Drexler
9 ) Scotte Pippen
10 ) John Stockton
MJ could have "Easily" had 8 championships is disrespectful to Hakeem, Rockets had a Plus Score against Bulls when both Hakeem and MJ played.
Adarsh Houston would never have beaten the Bulls in a series

Rodman, Payton, Miller, Starks, Mourning, Larry Johnson... There were so many great players around Back then. Hard to make a Top 10 List.
90s better now its softball
Reggie Miller should be in the list.
Epi Agunla over who
Lol no way over stockton and drexler. Maybe at 11. This list is pretty accurate imo
But jordan had no competition.... sure.
hey bruh! JohnStockton only 9th? BY FAR THE BEST AT DIMES and you put him under pat ewing? are you mad?
10:38 no mention of his league mvp? He won mvp DPOY and fmvp all in same year
Oh ok I just heard you mention it but you didn’t put it under his list of accolades so I was just confused for a second
What about Gary Payton.

90s centers decade. Shaq, ewing, robinson, mourning, mutombo, olajuwon etc
I think miller should be in the list
Honourable Mention Dominique Wilkins!!
Well we know who number 1 is😂😂😂😂
No Isiah Thomas. Pistons beat every great team in 1990's. None of these other guys beat Bird, Magic and Jordan. Who had the toughest road to a Championship in History. The Star of That Team needs more accolades and Publicity

Pipen should be higher on this list
He's too high on the list
Wilkins was better than Pippen.
And who in their right mind would choose Pippen over Shaq.
Rodman was a great player and deserves his HOF spot but he is NOT an honorable mention for top 10 player in the 90s decade, common this is embarrassing, he was a rebounder/ defender and was Never good enough to be a 1st option, stop OVERrating Pippen & Rodman just because Jordan led them to championships.
The thing is, in this top 10, MJ’s is the only one in the top 10 all-time. He dominated all players who had potential to be in the 10 greatest players ever.
You could argue for Hakeem, though.
Nah Shaq and Hakeem are top 10 all time
I don't think Malone was better than Barkley. Stockton too low, should be ahead of Ewing. Nobody would argue 1st and 2nd.
4 centers on this list. That's a large part of what made that decade so great! Today's game sacrifices skill and defense for jacking up 3s a step inside halfcourt. Boring.
The game sacrifices skill? 3 pt shooting is a skill, ball handling is at an all time high and there is good defense. Big men are able to hit 3s, what are you talking about?
Couldnt wait to see number 3 and 2. After that I closed the page cuz... Everybody knows :P
What’s so troubling about this is that Michael Jordan had (almost) identical PPG numbers with Washington as Clyde Drexler had in his prime (according to this video) and yet, Jerry Stackhouse said that he wish he HADN’T played with Mike in Washington. On a side note though....... I gotta give props to Ewing for that steal and dunk @ 5:23. I think that it was on my 90’s squad too. I loved watching The Bulls play, when I could catch them on national tv, but THAT was a nice steal and dunk by Pat.
Somewhere shaq is being sensitive & making jokes about your momma because you ranked ewing & robinson above him lol
So Dominique Wilkins don't even get a shout out. Amazing.
No Dominique Wilkins? No Isaiah Thomas? HAHA ok
grant hill for me.
Brother MJ is 10 times scoring champion
Diestro Terrero it shows only for 90s decade bro
Don’t you mean 95 for Shaq when he was second
No Mitch Richmond
I’m taking Gary Payton over Clyde any day
Great vid, thanks for continuing to crank out the content dude!
Barkley one of the most popular guys in sports media today? You should have seen him then. I started watching in 93 and my team was the Suns. Barkley was unreal, and prolific in talent as well as quotable material.
Charles should have been 3, not Karl. Chuck didn't brick a FT in the Finals like Malone did.
@@Bluebirdfalling just in the playoffs malone>barkley
No way would Jordan and the Bulls have won 8 straight. (Steve Kerr even said the same thing. Google "hakeem olajuwon cbssports.com".). The Rockets definitely would've won in '95. (Hakeem torched Dennis Rodman & David Robinson, so just imagine what he would've done to Toni Kukoc & Luc Longley.). As far as '94, even '93 if the Rockets had made it, the Rockets very easily could've won those as well
Ellande Campbell
90s was weakest of last five decades, by far.
Only top 30 all time in the 90s were Robinson, Hakeem & Jordan (Shaq was prime in 2000s). Other players are overrated because of a weak field.
Also why Jordan was overrated.
Nonsense Jordan, Hakeem, Shaq, Barkley, Malone, Ewing, Robinson, Stockton, Miller, Pippen
Shaq had more elite yrs in the 90s than the 00s. Shaq was swept 5 times in the 90s while playing with ALL-NBA, ALL-Def, ALL-Star caliber teammates. While also joining a team that was winning 50 games without him.
No Grant Hill who is better than Scottie Pippen. The Basketball Community really dislikes The Pistons especially if you don't put G. HILL in here. We all KNOW Grant Henry Hill abused Pippen
Hill didn't do enough in the 90s to be on the list
I agree with this list
How is Stockton ahead of Drexler
There are 5 major statistical categories in Basketball. John Stockton holds the career record in 2 of them. Furthermore, There are very few major career statistical records in all of sports that are unbreakable; both of John Stockton's records are such.
If scoring is all you care about, Drexler averaged more scoring in the 90s. Drexler averaged 20.9 ppg and Stockton only averaged 14.9 ppg. Stockton wasn't the number one option on his team. However, John was a more effective shooter in the 90s than Drexler. Drexler's eFG% was .494 and Stockton's was .556.
@@tcdahn7 that's a bad argument drexler was better, what he did from 90 to 92 is better than what stockton did and his 95 run shuts the door.
Great, great calls.
Barkley>Malone
Na
Nah no way Karl Malone is better. after Duncan and maybe Garnett ranking PF have to put Malone.
Duncan 1 Barkley 2 end of discussion.
@@bartstarr2371 are you saying Barkley is better than Mail man Karl Malone?
Phenomenal One yes hes 6'4 and gets 20 boards like its nothing.
most viewed finals EVER 1998 Chicago/Utah..less 2007 Cleveland/Spurs..all 90s all star games mortv ratings than all after 2000 and mid 2000 forward serious decline..at that point the league DEREGULATED offense in the general context of the era( carrying , travelling , no hands defense , 3 second defense rule) turnes the leaugue into a wrestlemania like staged show more than a real competative fight..that is obvious in the Usa teams since where the decline to their Fiba competition is more than obvious while fiba basketball had also its golden era in the 90s as well..
