Brian Cardinal : The Custodian Who Kept The Floor Clean
This is a look back on Brian Cradinal's career. Brian Cardinal was never a flashy player on the court but boy could he hustle. Cardinal made a living off of diving for loose balls, taking charges, and being a pest defensively. Earning him the custodian nickname for being on the floor all the time for loose balls cleaning them up with his knee pads. While also having a three-point shot helping spread the floor as a stretch four. Never lighting up a stat sheet yet it was the little things that defined cardinal’s career. An unorthodox one at that not even getting recruited to the school his dad worked at. Having to red shirt his freshman year. Before finding time to shine on the court at Purdue showcasing his effort every time, he hit the floor. Becoming a fan favorite for his effort. Then barely making the NBA as a second rounder. To not long after fall out of the league having to play overseas. Before returning and thriving in Golden State as one of the best three-point shooters in the league on top of providing his toughness. Bouncing around some after before ending up on the Dallas Mavericks who he’d aid in winning an NBA championship.

Basketball fans in Cyprus still recall Darrell Armstrong with reverent awe! I don't think that there has ever been such a small man with such a monstrous leap.
MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT PAIGE BUECKERS NOW!!! SHE I MY BUCKET😘😘😘🏀🏀🏀
YES I AGREE!!! I WOULD WATCH AND HAVE A SOCK READY
WOW THAT IS SO INAPPROPRIATE DELETE. THAT. NOW. 😠😠😠
This dude peaked in his rookie year. That’s crazy
That 77-78 team bro... pssshhh
Griffith is one of the greatest college players I’ve ever seen. He was a pure shooter. His NBA career didn’t get enough credit because he was buried in Utah…a team that was never on TV.
Being called the jordan stopper was instantly a curse . Gerald Wilkins was young and didn’t realize they had set him up for failure. This first reporter that called him that should have been slapped silly immediately.
Great biography!
Lifelong cle sports fan here. Big Z will always be loved in Cleveland.
Phil Smith had everything except cool name. Phil Smith gotta be one of the most generic NPC player names ever
VERY STRONG 1 HANDER DUNK VERY SOLID
Walking bucket. Lousy defense, but dude was dope as fuck
very well put together video.
One the greatest centers of all time.
Great narrative
Great video on my cousin thanks for giving him his flowers he was a problem when he played 💯💯
Lucky guy, he played with English, Thompson and Issel, and then Drexler and Paxton
he retired playing his last year hoping that he'd win a ring with the lakers. i think also the lakers thought it was a good pickup because he'd be that mentor sort of paternal presence there who could actually speak against anyone in that locker even Kobe. a guy like him if he had more in the tank or even greg anthony would have probably made a difference with keeping that core together, though B Shaw and Foxie were supposedly those guys, they still weren't those guys that Kobe had that class of his own respect for. who knows, but even D Fish was considered one of Kobe's die hard teammates and he couldn't hold it together for the core group either.
You should do a documentary on Kris Dunn his story is amazing just got signed by the LA Clippers 3 years 17mil to replace Russell Westbrook. Kris Dunn is about to really turn some heads next season and beyond and could possibly retire as a Clippers legend .......
Legendary !
And we supposedly had plumbers and shit in the 90s huh 😂
He was a BEAST!!!!💯💯💯
I watched Phil Smith's entire career. Take away the injuries and he was HOF bound. He could score and play D. Unfortunately, fate didn't allow him to fulfill his potential. Still a great player when he wasn't injured
Back then we used to have an A10 channel, originally to watch my cousin play football for Richmond, but during bb-season it was to watch St.Joes. Him and West were balling! I thought he’d be too small in the league but he ended up lighting it up. I miss his game.
1983 Sixers were Awesome...for one year
What an athlete....that first step was wicked for a 6'9" player.
Byron Scott never being an all star is a joke. They should have selected him in 88 or 89
Brian f’n cardinal aww man this much love to him and this channel 😂🎉
Your vids are the best! 👍
Great vid! Cardinal was a machine. Wish all NBA players gave the same effort.

All Celtic fans can agree, Toney scared the crap out of us.
I would have never thought of him again if not for this video.
Best player of all time
this is, by far, my fave sports history channel
He avg 4.6 pts and 2.7 reb. He's being profiled because of what again...?
hustle
you would make a great GM, mister Terrence.
@@JHan1411Then you gotta put here Ron Lee, Dennis Rodman pre Chicago Bulls, Kirch Heinrich, etc Dan Hanslick ( spelling not correct)
He used to kill the Knicks
Cardinal, with his dedication and diligence, clearly earned every cent of his contracts.
Brian Cardinal's dad looks younger than he does
Best channel ever
Hope for Sasha the Machine feature.
