Nice
Aaaand 9:30 👏👏👏

Ps Much Gratitude.
I see lots of post up moves in this video,That is a lost art in today’s game.Even the Centers & PF’s are at the top of the key trying to shoot 3’s.
Maybe because shooting a 3 is a much more efficient shot because it spaces the floor for cutters and drivers, and allows for more offensive rebounds when compared to a post up.
never heard of most of these guys? who pick them?
First and it feels good to see UVA in there
!
Ps Much Gratitude
Mario Chalmers was definitely MOP
Wonder who it would’ve been this year🤔😢
Last name Covid lol
Rodriguez Victor true😂
Nick Richards
Duke dominated the 90's making 5 National Championship games and 3 of them being in consecutive years...
The 1983 final game was a joke
Dwyane wade
Wow
''H''akeem
His original name was actually "Akeem" IIRC.
He changed it later to "Hakeem" a little later.
Third 😱
Al Horford was better than Joakim Noah
Bias much???
Lol who picked these ppl?! The middle is getting a little shakey. It’s like they’re going for shock value.
@William Hewitt wow. They missed some obvious dominant players in the tourney. Like Steph, D Rose, Jay Williams, Gordon Hayward, Russ Smith, Larry Johnson, Richard Hamilton...
@William Hewitt ah ok. Cool.
The hissing frame unquestionably polish because van proportionally earn atop a mysterious fox. well-groomed, normal politician
Where is jordan??
He never won it
How would he not "won it" he hit the game winning shot which led to an 1982 NCAA Championship
Hardeep Jaswal okay and? hitting the winning shot doesn’t instantly mean you were the best player in the semi finals and finals. the only reason he was open for that shot was because all the attention was on the best player on that UNC team. James Worthy. He was the best player in college basketball at the time and deserved to win most outstanding player as well as become the number 1 pick
Dont try to sit here and tell me HE should not have gotten it "FATHER BEPS" if your going to tell me Jordan wasn't an outstanding player in college during that year YOUR ON DRUGS... The title of this video is final four most outstanding player from 79 to 2019 if your telling me hitting a game shot isn't good ENOUGH you don't know basketball, the intensity the moments the final seconds what are you talking about that man is like one of the best shooting gaurds to have ever played the game and you telling me hitting a game winning shot ain't good enough..... Thats soft. Thats all
Hardeep Jaswal like fo you have brain damage. tell me if you do because only that can explain what you just said. michael being the greatest of all time is completely irrelevant, we’re talking about the most outstanding player of the final 4. if james worthy isn’t there they don’t get to the position where jordan can make the final shot. stop basing your argument off of one moment and use your brain. i can tell you only watch highlights
