I remember when I got hurt with an Mcl injury in football. I was the staple left tackle. One of the best blockers on the team, but the second string stepped up. He had a huge ego. He was so jealous of me for taking his spot he just stepped up and took my spot back and acted like he was doing fine. His ego blinded him. Let’s just say our team, which lived on running backs effectively running the ball, could never run to the left anymore for the rest of the season.
@@sahd2771 I played both sides of the ball, at one point I handled giving the guards and tackles the playbook and codes. I allowed I think 5 sacks and 3 TFL over the 9 game season I think. I had 5 sacks, 12 tackles, 5 for a loss, a tipped pass and a fumble recovery.
I’m glad Lin eventually got a ring. He wasn’t a big part of the raptors but he deserved it because of his career. Dude really came out of nowhere and took over. I live in a predominantly Asian city that loves basketball and it was nice seeing the homies have someone to look up to

The Knick's should've kept Jeremy and let him continue to grow there.He had all the attribites to be a hreat player execpt a team to call home. Great content cosgrove. Much love and support.
Better he tells good story and make them sounds overly dramatic and more epic then they really are You have this very same topic narrated by Bsolz or Rusty buckets I doubt it would still get the same vibe Nothing against those guys but they do have completely different styles
Other than his height he did look too young to be in the NBA.One of our greatest draft picks in history. This reminds me of when the Chiefs took Mahomes and many Chiefs Alex Smith fans thought it was stupid.Even Chiefs players thought it was stupid. Ellis in his dreams was as good as Wade.
I been a Warrior fan since Mullin and Hardaway.I even remember when Penny Hardaway was a Warrior for 5 mins and so was Chris Webber for 1 season. Sprewell was awesome but choking our coach was a no no. The We Believe years were great though.Baron Davis is a legend. Ellis was a good player but it was smart to replace him obviously.The Warriors got lucky Baron Davis left for more money cause his career was a nosedive after us.After that it opened the door in the backcourt.
Most of gsw fans gtfo we already had a strong fan base that supported a team with losing record year after year. We can't help if everyone loves watching the most exciting show in basketball.
i can tell you as an oregon native and blazer fan for life... everyone was happy when lillard took over. for years all we ever got from aldridge was the same repetative gameplay and according to other players that were on the team at the time... aldridge complained endlessly about everything and was toxic to the team. im sure he does regret the way it went down... hasnt won a title in texas... but i dont know if portland wants him back after the way it went down. it would all depend on how he handled it. small town teams need loyal players to ever have a chance at a ring.
@@austinbuckets21 because its disrespectful that these new gen special needs 8 year old nba fans think lillard is even on currys level. Lillard is currys son and the g league version of steph the chef goat curry
The way Melo treated Jeremy Lin rubbed me the wrong way, but at least he now repaired his image. Also, LaMarcus Aldridge leaving Portland because Damian Lillard was rising made no sense since he joined San Antonio whose team was clearly going to be Kawahi Leonard's.
U could have mentioned Kobe and Shaq, from 96-01 Shaq was clearly the better player but after 01, the Lakers started more to shift towards Kobe instead of Shaq and Kobe generally became neck and neck with Shaq and after the three peat in 02, it became Kobes team
I lived in the Bay area and you're right- they loooooved Ellis. They were straight-up angry when he got traded. But the Warriors scouted right and made the right decision. And even though the fans loved Ellis, there were daily debates about whether the team could win a chip with him.
Not really. Curry had back to back ankle injuries. It was even told he met his doctor through gsw. So if he was traded he might not be able to recover fully

If it wasn't for those D pics and that lawsuit though... We wouldn't have Curry and maybe even the chips!!! I'm grateful for the D Pics!! 🍆📸 They made the front office keep curry with his peanut brittle ankles and who was hurt at the time of the decision and hadn't done anything for us yet but get hurt and Monte was dropping like 50 a night!😳 Sooooooooo....😐 Warriors fans BETTER thank the basketball gods for those D pics!!!!
Melo and Kobe were hating on Jeremy Lin so much. Melo couldn't accept that his career was on a decline and he wasn't a #1 option anymore. Lin wasn't ready for that either, but he was young and coachable on a team that needed someone other than Melo to do something. Kobe just didn't have any faith in his skills for some reason
The Pacers trading Granger during the 2013-2014 season shocked me. I believe if they would've kept him they would've gotten past Miami in the Eastern Conference Finals. I wasn't a Pacers fan that season, but had alot of respect for the team. Also at least Jeremy Lin's last season in the Nba resulted in him winning an nba championship ring with Toronto. That's likely never gonna happen with Carmelo. Great video!
It seems logical what Jerry West was saying about Curry potentially never fully developing into the player that he is today IF they had kept Monte Ellis. It's like having the breadwinner of your house lose their job and now you have to step up your game as a kid and put in that extra work to support the house and be the man. If that original breadwinner never dissipated; chances are you would have developed slower and/or differently.
Note to self: never ever let my ego get so big i get jealous of somebody elses success. Fvck that shxt.
