Hey Dom. I was wondering what your opinion is on if a player could be too loyal. Like with Dame and Giannis where their front offices haven’t really done much to put teams around them, and they haven’t really had a problem with it.

Great vid as usual, Dom2K. I have to say, you caught me completely off guard with the Dirk to the Sixers what if. I never thought about that scenario at all but it's DEFINITELY one that has to be considered as a major question mark. Dirk with AI may or may not have worked and who knows what Larry Brown would've done with a player of Dirk's modern skill set since he was such an old school coach BUT I have to think Dirk develops anyway and then who knows what they could've done in the awful east of the early 2000s. Great job!!

Russell Westbrook Fan since 2010 That was covered in part 1
In the 1998 draft, the Bucks drafted Dirk prior to trading him to Dallas. If they had kept Dirk, they could have paired him with Ray Allen and those two together possibly could have gotten the Bucks past Philadelphia into the NBA finals in 2001. Not as intriguing as Dirk and Nash or Dirk and Iverson, but still an interesting duo that almost happened.

One of the best slashers along with a very consistent stretch 4, yeah, that's a number one seed in the east for a long time. Who knows, they could've even gotten some help to go along if it really worked out. A lockdown perimeter defender, another shooter and a reliable center would've really wreaked havoc. I'm not saying they could've taken one from the lakers, but hey, what if?

Cash X BALLER Thing about that is Steve Nash's situation with Dallas was the same situation as James Harden with OKC. If he stayed, he couldn't become the player we know him as today. Remember that Steve Nash was the 6th man at Dallas, same as James Harden at OKC. Leaving was the best decision both of them ever made.

Trey Magathan he was their starting point guard... 2 minutes doesn't justify being called a 6th man, and he averaged less points and assists because the Mavs passed the ball really well and didn't run their whole offense through Nash. He was also sharing the scoring with Dirk.
4 more scenarios that would've been insane in the 2000's LeBron goes to college and therefore gets drafted by Orlando KG gets traded to LA instead of Boston LeBron and Kobe get traded for each other Kobe gets traded to the bulls

10:48 apparently Dirk and Nash had boy band hair back in the day
Watching footage of a young dirk is like watching a unicorn, #1 was a gem. As always much appreciated.
4:14 that flop tho
Personally, I can't fault any team like the Pistons or Sixers for not drafting the right player. Drafting is not an exact science. It's nearly impossible to tell how a players career will go. Just remember, IT was drafted LAST, and Manu was drafted 57th.

lito dat Yes, but his MVP seasons wasn’t that special in numbers, Ik his numbers would be down due to not playing in D’Antoni system but I think he would put 12-15 ppg and 10 apg easily, since Dirk is a major upgrade from Amare, and Nash worked pretty well with Amare
Damn so that’s how Boozer ended up leaving so early I always wondered how he left so quick

I don't think AI could coexist with anybody in his prime. He had Jerry Stackhouse, who was a prolific scorer. I had no idea he damn near averaged 30 a game at one point. Maybe, in lieu of the KD and Westbrook fallout, you could make a video about All-Star duos that couldn't coexist.

Dom2k > NBA Saturday Night
Boozer is playing in the Big5 now. I do remember when Stockton/Malone handed the reigns to the Jazz team over to Deron Williams, Andrei Kirilenko and Carlos Boozer. The team kept together until Deron Williams and Sloan didn't see eye to eye and Williams left and HoF coach Sloan retired. Rebuild would pretty much start around then and take until Gordon Hayward's last year with the Jazz to get the team back into contention. Now that Jazz have signed Favors to a decently sized contract we'll see where it goes, but Quin will be riding Favors to continue improving his corner 3-point shot and stretching out for today's NBA.
THIS WILL BY MY FAVORITE SERIES
The Dallas Mavericks won 58, 60 and 67 games the three seasons following Steve Nash's departure. They replaced him with slightly worse offensive players (Jason Terry) and much better defenders.

Regardless of all the what-ifs, I’m beyond grateful for Dirk Nowitzki as a Mavs fan. What he means to this city and this franchise is indescribable. You can’t ask for a much more talented and athletic player than Dirk. Saw him a few hours ago on the sideline at the Mavs game, will always be respected in Big D 🐐🏆

That is a giant red flag to not take him as a number one pick, he had injury prone all written
Waking up to the notification that dom dropped a new video is a blessing
That flop by manu tho😂😂
A big what if that no one talks about is what if Rick Pitino was more patient with the Celtics rebuild and held on to Chauncey Billups instead of trading him to Toronto for virtually nothing. Imagine the future the Celtics could have had, assuming nothing gets butterflied away, if they paired Billups together with an in his prime Antoine Walker, a future star in Paul Pierce, and a decent starter Joe Johnson? That would easily make a great foundation for a formidable starting 5, even if Walker begins to decline due to off the court issues like he did in the mid 2000s. The Celtics could have easily snapped back into being the top dog of the East and provided some interesting NBA finals series in the early 2000s against the Shaq and Kobe Lakers, adding another chapter to the classic rivalry, especially if the Celtics eventually made a move for a decent big man that could deal with Shaq on the defensive end. And while it may not have been enough to win the Celtics a title, the Celtics would have been in a better position during the early and mid 2000s when they had to heavily rely on Pierce while he slowly became surrounded by nothing and had to drag the Celtics scoring wise until the arrival of Allen and Garnett.
Absolutely fantastic video. Wish Dirk was in a better place to achieve more throughout his career (at this point, whether it was on the Mavericks or not), but everything happens for a reason. Although this never received the justice that it deserved, in a way, with these two videos, these theories received a kind of justice that should be respected. Thanks, Dom!

What if LeBron went to college and declared only for the 2004 NBA Draft? - Melo drafted by Cleveland - LBJ in Orlando: would T-Mac forced a trade in 2004 if he knew that the Magic could get a player like LeBron James? A LBJ-T-Mac duo would dominate the East for years until McGrady's decline due to injuries - Charlotte would get Dwight Howard, a much more solid franchise player than Emeka Okafor; I don't think the Bobcats would suck that much if they drafted Howard and maybe they wouldn't come back as Hornets Greetings from Brazil!
