For the record Mikan wanted the three point shot because it “will give smaller players a chance to score and open up the defense” he specifically wanted more people to have a role / opportunity in basketball so he made a rule that let people with skill sets other than his own carve out a niche. I just think that’s really cool
Dude kinda predicted the future lol
@@resurrectedpa damn no wonder he was the goat of his generation
@@jaywbell2002 big brain lol
It's super cool
And look how that turned out. What started out as a niche has now become a necessity. Above all else, George Mikan was a visionary
Jimmy be saving us on the down days

True..
Facts.
On god
This.
The other HUGE Butterfly Effect that many have forgotten about was Nick Anderson's missing the 4 foul shots, that changed the fate of the Orlando-Houston series, helping undermine the Magic's confidence against the Rockets, eventually causing Shaq to leave O-Town and leave for LA...
Bro, the magic didn't lose that series because of Nick. Stop it. The Rockets were a much more experienced team, with an all time great big of their own.
Shaq has said it himself, they were a young squad, and didn't have the discipline and maturity to grasp the magnitude of the situation. Shaq was hosting parties every finals game.
Orlando looked like the next Dynasty
They got swept and it wasn’t because of missed free throw, confidence. Stop ✋. The rockets were head and shoulders better
@@JonathanWaterbury there is no telling how the series would turn out and maybe the Rockets would have won anyway. But if Nick hits a couple of free throws the Magic win game 1 and aren't swept. That Magic team was young but very talented.
You might be too young to know this but Taco Bell held an actual PPV event putting Hakeem against Shaq in a one-on-one game. The Dream owned not only Shaq but David Robinson, Glenn Robinson, well let’s be honest here mostly all the Big Men in the league at that time. It took MJ retiring for that season and a half and the Bulls losing to Orlando in that second season for Hakeem to get his 2 rings he actually deserved and don’t forget he had the second best shooting guard in Clyde as his ultimate support as well. Barkley came to the team the season after the second Finals win. Then Pippen came after The Bulls second three peat and MJ’s second retirement. So yeah, you probably too young to get that part of it.
Mikan supporting the 3 point shot is like when a dad tells his kid, "ok, if you shoot it from behind this line, I'll give you an extra point", so the kid thinks he has a chance.
Turns out the kid did have a chance
Turns out that kids dad is named Dell! lol
@@EthanA1122 and thus the change of wardell to stephen
That's pretty much what it was. The 3 point line let shorter guards utilize their skills more than just having the league dominated by big men
This is one of the best “what if” NBA videos I’ve ever seen. Bravo
Marvel: What if-
Jxmy: -I’ll take it from here

It’s insane how it works out that the Heat missed out on the player they wanted but got Dwayne Wade instead, I can’t even imagine the Heat without Wade
@@fitnesslk plus bosh who they wanted in the first place lol crazy
Everyone talks about how Miami recruited LeBron in free agency, the pitches, etc. But nobody talked about Chris Bosh - I can only imagine the pitch.
Riley (after spilling his rings on the table): You know, you were the guy we wanted to draft in the first place over Wade - and had we done so, this 2006 ring would have been yours.
Bosh: Give me the pen then.
LeVert's story truly was a blessing holy sht
The LORD is great give thanks and praises , he's the GREAT orchestrator overseeing the "butterfly effect" boss 🙏🏼

Dude straight fax, I love how Jimmy just states facts, not his opinions
czcams.com/video/a8SoHzcAbpg/video.html
George Mikan was also the reason for the shot clock's existance. Teams could and sometimes would stall when they were going against him (not to mention his teams ran very, very slow themselves). So someone suggested the shot clock as a way to force a shot. How they got 24 seconds was dividing the game length by the number of shots they hoped would exist during a game.
Mikan was also involved, in one way or another, in the creation of the shot clock, the widening of the lane from six to twelve feet (it would later be widened again to slow down Wilt Chamberlain), goaltending rules, and the existence of the Minnesota Timberwolves.
this man's mistake was a blessing in disguise 😂
LOL RAGE SUP
No shit
actually?
I do feel sorry for Anthony Carter (A.C.), though. I'm from Hawai'i and A.C. was one of the greatest players to come out of our state.
Glad his mistake benefited the Miami Heat, all the same. 💁🏻♂️🏀👍
Never knew u watch jxmy
It's like if Jimmy wouldn't have got Harnia during his college peak time, we wouldn't be watching one of the greatest analyst of all time not only in basketball but all sports combined.
#FACTS
‘Baseball Doesn’t Exist’ is really good too. He and Jimmy are definitely S-Tiers in sports video essays.
@@fogelmclovin2694 for football, flemlo raps, nobody puts as much love and respect into his videos and stories as he does
@@attoboi9763 Just watched his Cushings video. Really good too. Thanks for the suggestion. Any specific videos from him that you think are really good?
@@fogelmclovin2694 theres really a lot, the one about the college kid murdered my his teammate is probably his best video, but just go to most popular and watch imo
Got to say, i got goosebumbs somehow, when Jxmy said this man George Mikan was Born nearly a hundred years ago and then seeing clips of his game in black and white in the meantime. In the world of sports thats like it‘s happened in ancient Greece
Yep
fr that shit was beautiful
Remember when George Mikkan played for Constantinopole Eagles for 3 seasons? That contract created a butterfly effect that saw the rise of Chinese leagues and NBA players playing overseas
I'm going to say this is one of the best NBA videos I have ever seen. This was an amazing example of the butterfly effect on the hardwood. Great freaking job bro. Now that's how you create dope content!
That LeVert story is scary asf. That can literally happen to ANYBODY.

I watch almost all your vids, and thank you. However, this one had me in tears at the end it was so beautiful, about basketball, about life, about being patient when things don't go our way. It's so deep. Makes me think of shooting hoops with dad as a kid. I know I'm not the only one. You have a gift and I'm looking forward to decades more touching/thoughtful vids if you/God willing.

You should totally have a "butterfly effect" video series. This would be really interesting to consider in the NBA. You should do one on how Steph's ankle injury kept him from getting traded to the Timberwolves & how that rippled through time.
You're storytelling through the NBA landscape is nothing short of exceptional. Your player/ stat charts bring perspective to an otherwise unimaginable field of information. Thank you for providing depth to what might otherwise be a more flattened underling NBA story.
I love how jimmy researches everything and then gives us the treasure... Said this before gonna say it again love ya man and thank you 💖

This video blew me away !!! Connecting the dots of history is such a magic journey , loved every second of it . Amazing work as always Jimmy
Wow, man. This was some of your best work yet. Mind boggling how you came up with some of these insights and narratives, and the stories were crazier in succession.
I haven’t watched ball for well over a decade, but I’ve watch all your videos. The product is incredibly polished.
That Levert one I literally stay up at night thinking about. Anyone from Bk or any big Nets fans know about Levert and how good he is. He’s one of my favorite players, and it was so tough losing him. But finding out that it saved his life was dumbfounding to me.
he kinda trash but incredibly nice seeming person and good guy
@@xiunitv4513 Kinda trash in the NBA still puts him in the top few hundred players in the world, hands down. And he scored a bit under 20 PPG, not really trash. An above average player at worst.
@@Dasbulldoge kinda trash compared 2 the all star level we thought he was gunna b at
@@xiunitv4513 average anime pfp iq 🤦😂
Jimmy is the NBA content GOAT. The quality in this man's videos is just amazing.
Yeah he's good hey!
The AMOUNT of effort put into every single video is just phenomenal love it mate keep it up
I am surprised you didn't mention all of the rules changes that were implemented because of Mikan's play on the court. Goaltending exists because he used to rip balls off the rim before they could go in. They also widened the lane because of him and introduced the shot clock.
“One butterfly effect created the NBA we see today”
“So in 1891, a guy named James Naismith…”
ahhahahahahaha lol
It's fax tho. If naismith's students found a way to play football during the winter then he wouldn't have created a game that can be played in the indoors which we now know as basketball.

Prime Rebound Is slightly better 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Agree
So true my brother that's how things are in this INCREDIBLE life we live. I have experienced so many of these moments and am now experiencing the largest one yet it's just remarkable!
Thinking Basketball
Rebound is better
Dude wtf LaVert has ALWAYS been a beast. Injuries had derailed his early career but when he was the court he was ballin. Remember he also had a horrific nearly career ending injury while having a career year and we're all glad to see him bounce back strong!
Come on man
Dude was a fantasy regular in our league for years
Bruhhhhh you deserve an ESPN special with all these facts you keep bringing to us! 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
When jimmy uploads you sit down and attentively listen and put all your attention into the video and don’t focus on anything else. Thanks Jimmy for teaching us some new nba information.
Exactly. Other videos I kinda put on and just listen and do other things while it’s playing. When Jimmy uploads a video, I make time and sit down and give my full attention. Love the videos man

Jimmy,...thank you. Thank you for these videos. Every time I watch your videos im in love with your craft of storytelling. I don't even watch because of basketball at this point. I watch for all the knowledge that you have and only then do I love the game
That is by far one of the best videos from you I've ever seen. I literally had chills during this episode. Thanks, man.
All this heat talk reminded me that the heat are really one of the most successful franchises ever when you adjust for length of existence. Like they've been around for only 34 years and have 3 chips and been contenders numerous other years. We all know how well the team is run and it shows
When you put it that way can not agrue that.
well, duh. Pat Riley has run the team for 26 years.
Riley just refuses to do long term tank; heck, it seems like he won’t even throw the remainder of a seemingly lost season these days. I often think it might hold them back from being true contenders but then they did almost win a ring just two years ago. Perhaps if instead of Bam and Dragic getting injured before the finals it had been AD or LeBron they could have actually won it, you never really know.
They were looking pretty darn good before Butler tweaked his ankle this year too. I donno how he keeps doing these revamps with no draft picks or cap space lol
I started watching this with a "yeah but you could attribute every personnel move to somebody's championship down the road," but this was very interesting and quite credible. Your voice is a pleasure to listen to.
Thx for making this video it’s my favourite video of yours
Keep up the great work 😊🫶
Add to the Heat drafting Wade, Michael Jordan longtime trainer Tim Grover received a call from Pat Riley, asking what he thought on D Wade and his intention to draft Chris Kaman. Tim Grover advised to draft D Wade, while Pat Riley argued that they need big man for their team. Which then Tim told Pat to play Wade at center. Those 2 are one of the greatest at what they are doing, and combined both knowledge give them one of the top SG of all time.

I love the channel!I was a longtime basketball fan. Peaked as a young boy watching Jordan into my teens. I played but had stopped with my fathers passing in 04. There was no Jordan, my Dad passed, and my love for the game faded. I regret it to this day. My boys however got into basketball and mostly because they knew I loved it once. Now that I am back into it I discovered Jxmy and I have to thank you. You make the best content on CZcams.
NBA butterfly effect needs to be a series. I can fall in love with it real quick.
This is one of craziest Butterfly Effects in sports.
