Only if reggie had a sidekick like scottie he could have at least one ring by now
He had Chuck Person during the late 80's through early 90's. It didn't work out.
@@moeschizlac man nigga please lmao. Reggie was just drafted in late 80's and getting his reps in the early 90's. he had no real all star talent beside him. Rik Smits was as good as it good. Cause even Mark Jackson was a little older and past his prime. Jalen Rose was also good but just inconsistent. Then Ron Artest got himself suspended the year they could have won
@@MFjaYWiLL The Pacers team from 88-92 was much tougher than from 94-1998. They had more offensive weapons as in Chuck Person and Detlef Shremp both known for their outside 3 point shooting along with Smits. They still couldn't get past an aging Larry Bird's Celtics in the first round with all that offense. Pacers organization made dumb moves by trading Shremp and Person and left Reggie Miller as the only option on offense. Don't get fascinated by the 1994 watered down Pacers team. They had enough scoring in 1990: Smits- 16ppg Schremp-16ppg Person-20ppg Miller-25ppg Fleming14ppg The Eastern conference teams got weak after 1992 and the effects of the expansion era became much more noticeable. You must have started watching the NBA during the late 90's after Jordan retirement into the 2000's.
If only the malice at the palace didnt happen
@@moeschizlac damn didn't know that they had this much firepower on offense and yet couldn't win anything
Reggie one of the most clutch shot makers of all-time.
This is so true when he got to playoffs he just went to another gear
Reggie Miller was a long-distance runner who just happened be able to shoot the ball well. Shaq was just a football player who was a good fit for center. Both these guys were amazing talents and absolutely deserve their places in the Hall of Fame
Good observation lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣all he needed was a helmet huh?
i don't think anyone ever thought shaq was "just a football player"
Reggie was a good a scorer as shooter. How he got gapped at the 3 its time to call him scorer not just shooter
Reggie Miller was an insane player in his day.
Reggie is so underrated played in what 6 ECF and 1 finals as the best player on his team. With Rick smuts and Jalen rose as the second best players. Dragged the pacers deep in the playoffs every year without a second star. Upped his game in playoffs every year.
Reggie carried his team as far as he could as a skinny sg.
Reggie miller the knick killer
@Mohsen Ali your crazy in 1998 alone the Pacers were at 50 win team, 8 of those wins came by buzzer beater winners by Miller. He literally would put the pacers on his back and carry them through the playoffs
@@reggiemacon3493 But Shaq beat him in 1995 and 2000 after he got past the Knicks
Majin Buu No one can stop him
@@pacersgo Then why was he ringless dickhead
Watching that NBA era all those years ago I never would have thought those would be the best NBA years of my life.😢
It's funny how people said Reggie couldn't get his own shot.
Reggie the used-to-be best shooter of post-jordan era. his no.31 jersey was something I wanted so badly
Go get one now bro
Post Jordan??? Reggie was the best Shooter of the Jordan Era.... He never got the notoriety until Jordan retired...
The Hall Report exactly. What’s this guy talking about post Jordan era lol?
Naw he was def known because of his battles with Knicks & Spike Lee
Reggie Miller isnt just the best shooter of the post Jordan era, he's arguably the best all-time.
That Orlando magic team in 1995 was great
Most people thought Indiana had a shot of beating Orlando in 95 but obviously a young shaq was their kryptonite
Man, I tell you... every since the 80's & 90's left NBA... that thrill will never be the same as today's NBA.
1:13 nice step back by Reggie, Dirk took note
This was the first NBA game I watched on TV. THEN I became a fan since.
Damn, Reggie!! Wow!! What a killer!
Damn , SHAQ was such a beast when he was young , going up against Reggie Miller still in his prime like that
Damn, O'Neal was allowed to be such a beast by the officials when he was young. *Fixed
@@bubufubu lol it wasnt the soft crybaby nba of today u know?
Rip Craig Sager
Thanks for uploading such a high quality video. I can see you your edit efforts like extending voice of one clip to next to make it smooth. Great work!
Shaq wishing Reggie was there in next round vs Rockets who would had made those FTS unlike Nick Anderson.
Shut the fuck. It was only one game. The Rockets would still win the series
@@fuckthechinesevirus9462 even the Pacers would beat the Magic, the Rockets would still pound them in the NBA Finals. if it was in '96, the Bulls would smash the Rockets in the Finals and that is something you won't like to see you mealy mouthed son of a bitch. lmao
Reggie was better at closing with clutch shots than Steph. He was a closer. I don’t remember Steph closing games like Larry Bird or Michael Jordan or even like Kobe or Reggie Miller.
There's nobody you want to have the ball more then Bird Micheal or Reggie in the 4th quarter.. You just knew they were going to do what ever it took to win...
Shove This L Up Your Ass Go sleep lil Boy
This is true. But then again Reggie Miller is top 5 at least all time in terms of clutch shot.
For those watching this, this during the 3 year stretch they moved the arc to 22ft all around.
Reggie Miller has the quickest release like watching an old western movie of gun slinger going at it so fast and lethal. Reggie needed another superstar.
back to the time in which the NBA is still the game of real man
Reggie Miller was a less athletic MJ with a better jumper. Super underrated player and one of my favorites!
@ Top back podcast there were several seasons were Reggie led the league in fourth quarter scoring that's where the It's Miller's Time signs were for. The fourth quarter. By the way yes he did it while Mike was in the league
Less athletic, yes. A better jumper...not sure about that.
@@wreckim Way better shooter than MJ, MJ would drive a lot so it would open up his mid range jumper, Reggie was primarily a jump shooter, even when contested.
Nah bro reggie miller shots aren’t as contested as mjs were he wasn’t as big of a threat he wasn’t even a consistent 20 point scorer plus mjs form is just better he can shoot off the dribble and I’m sure isn’t that far off from reggie as a 3 pt shooter
@@Mad_Intalect worse defender as well
At 2:03 , anybody notice the glass breaking sound effect. 😭😅😭🤣
Both are beast
You pretty much can’t leave Reggie Miller open!!!
Reggie Miller!!! My goodness!!!
Legend has it this is the game a young high school Kobe Bryant first met Shaq...he attended the game with an Agent that also represented Reggie Miller at the time.
What made Reggie great was his endurance his fundamentals and he was always clutch and his shot of course
Shaq always dominated the Association, especially Smits 😂 for real for real
O'Neal was allowed to dominate opponents by the league. Not the same as talent.
Still watching 💪💪💪 June 19, 2023
The Pacers just couldn't steal one game on the road, in the 95 and 98 ECF
It'll take these kids these days in the NBA years and years and years he even think about being in the same category as Reggie Miller I'm sorry thinking about it the kids these days ain't going to last as long as Reggie Miller dead Reggie Miller he's the man it will always be the man that's why he's a Hall of Famer
Reggie.. My god! So underrated player, he was so good and easy!!!
My brother and my friend loved the Magic!
amazing
You just don't see talent like this anymore. What the hell happened to the NBA?
It's soft
Reggie miller was sniper
Reggie Miller is my hero. My idol
Damn if Reggie had a better team like Jordan had he'd be higher in the all time list poor guy always carried bums going up against Jordan with a stacked roster and always had to go through Shaq and Kobe as well.
If Kobe didn"t have Prime Shaq in the 2000 Nba Finals, old Reggie Miller would have destroyed him.
incredible
Miss those days!
Shaq at this weight was in my opinion his best version of himself.
Shaq was definitely more athletic, and better shape in Orlando than in LA.
@@Theterminato2013 very true but also remember this was the beginning of his career his first deep playoff run and wasn't injured like he would be in 1996, 1997 ,1998. When you look at how many games Shaq missed with injuries but still played like Shaq it's truly amazing how great this guy was. Hardaway, Grant Hill, Chris Webber had injuries and it slowed them down. Shaq did start to slow down until after his 10th season
I saw this game i was 13 good ol times
And this is why Reggie > Ray Allen imo
shaq was a monstar 😤
Shaq and Reggie would've made a devastating duo
all the alley oops to Shaq remind me of Blue Chips 😆
Rip Craig
Penny hardaway , dennis Scott , Nick Anderson , shaquille o’neal and brian shaw
i think miller was much better clutch shooter than curry!
Reggie never got going in most games until the 4th quarter... That always urked me back in the day... Reggie could have averaged 35 a game if he wanted to...
That seems like a pretty wild overstatement, but there’s no doubt that Reggie Miller was one of the greatest clutch players of all time. One of my favorites.
Lol you insane
Elle OH Elle
Reggie had Clutch Shooter HOF in the 4th quarter
Orlando shaq is my favourite! He was in much better shape than Kaers Shaq and defended/reboubded much better than Lakers shaq too.
He was in better shape. However, he got preferential treatment from the league since Day One. He got lazier and lazier because he didn't have to try that hard to get his points.
@@bubufubu I didn't get a chance to see him play until he was older but from the stories he and his teammates have told he got more punishment than anybody hecause he was so much bigger and stronger. In the series against the Kings he did get preferential treatment but it was inconsistent. I don't think refs knew how to ref him because they had never seen a player like him.
@@davidbelanger9952 O'Neal got more punishment because he gave it out and the league wasn't giving his opponents a chance. They got dominated so they rebelled by being rough with him to try and protect themselves. O"Neal brought that on himself. Chamberlain, who was infinitely more talented than O'Neal, predated him by 30 years. The league knew to officiate a player of that size. They simply chose to afford him preferential treatment as a business move. O'Neal was very marketable.
@@bubufubu I don't think the guys who reffed Chamberlan were alive when Shaq played lol even with Kareem, Hakeem, Ewing, Robinson and Moses there was never that level of physical dominance displayed since wilt. Shaq did give it out but I think it was in response to what he got. It's a vicious cycle
@@davidbelanger9952 You completely missed the point. The league has been around since 1947. Players of O'Neal's size were around long before him. O'Neal did not play the game the same way those other players you mentioned did. He wasn't as talented as them so he chose to get his points another way. The rules were already in place. The league simply chose to let him get away with offensive fouls most of the time so that he could be successful in order to help the league make more money. It's really very simple. And O'Neal didn't just give it out. He was allowed to go through defenders to get to the bucket. It was egregious.
Damn, Reggie fought hard but the FG % of Shaq crushing the rim is something else.
Shaq had such a great career say what you want about him in terms of work ethic but even with lack of work ethic he still achieved so much
Shaq was the 3rd best center in the league at this time and he was still young in the nba.
@Kam Mike That's very debateable. Robinson won MVP, took the Spurs to 62 wins without having another star, and was on the defensive 1st team. Shaq on the other hand was playing with a superstar PG, he was on the 2nd team that year but a lot of that had to do with the Rockets having a rough regular season and being a low seed.
I would probably agree that he was the 3rd best center at this time and point in his career. He definitely wasn't better than Hakeem, as was proven clearly in the series after this one. Dave Robinson was the MVP that year and led the Spurs to the best record in the League. You could even argue whether or not he was better than Ewing (I think he was by this point). The difference is those guys were in or nearing the end of there primes and Shaq had yet to reach his.
He put up better numbers than every center in the NBA he had better numbers than Hakeem when he won MVP and Robinson, who had to score 70pts in the last game to avg more point his MVP season. Shaq was the best regardless of that one finals matchup. Shaq numbers basically cancelled out Hakeems anyway. Shaq was the second best player behind only Jordan. Plus Shaq is the only center in the last 40+ years to avg 28pts 12rebs in first four years.
@@jaymule7342 Hakeem swept Shaq with a less talented team that didn't even have the home court advantage. Shaq's 2nd best teammate was a young, emerging star in Penny Hardaway. Hakeem's 2nd best teammate was an older, maybe past his prime Clyde Drexler who was traded there after Portland decided to move on from him. If you want to say Shaq was better after 95 I would agree with you but Hakeem was still more impactful and outplayed Shaq in that one finals matchup.
Phillip Riles You are wrong about Magic being the more talented team, Penny being better then Drexler and Hakeem having a better season then Shaq. It’s all broken down with legit facts. Start off the only reason Drexler was traded halfway thru the season was at time of the trade, Portland was far removed from contention and was compelled to honor Drexler’s trade request or risk losing him in free agency. It’s the number two best player ever traded in the Rockets franchise. Without him Rockets would’ve most likely lost to the Jazz in the very first round. With the series tied at 2-2 game 5 Rockets were getting destroyed but however, Drexler spearheaded a monster fourth-quarter rally with both timely defensive play and clutch shooting when the Rockets otherwise appeared lifeless, and Houston scored the major upset with a 95-91 victory. Drexler had 31 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, a steal, and a block to go along with five three-pointers to spark the dramatic come-from-behind win. Hakeem 33yrs old in his prime after his team just won the championship the year before beat a really young 23yr old Shaq and the Magic. The Rockets had more talented players/veterans. Clyde averaged in the 1995 finals 22pts 10rebs 7ast 1stl and Penny avg 26pts 5rebs 8ast 1stl. Drexler avg that regular season 22pts/6.5rebs /5ast/2stls - FT% 81 - FG% .506 and (eFG% means effective field goal %) EFG% .563 which is excellent and Penny averaged 21pts/4rebs/7ast /2stl - FT% 77 with an EFG% .550 Clyde had the better season and he cancelled out Penny in the NBA Finals. During the NBA Finals Orlando had 6 players in double digits and Houston had 5 players with Kenny Smith avg 7.3 but he had a monster game knocking down 7 3pt shots. The next 3 starting Rockets players all avg more points than Orlando’s third top scorer at 13.5pts. The Rockets had a big3 with Hakeem/Drexler and Robert Horry, who averaged 18pts 10rebs 4ast 3stl 3blks. After both star players on each team, it’s clear, Houston had the better role players as well as coaching. Shaq avg 29pts 12.5rebs 6.3ast 2.5blks FG%.595 FT%57 and had a monster eFG%.583 also Shaq was the better defender in that finals. Hakeem had 33pts 11.5rebs 5.5ast 2.0stl 2.0blks with an eFG%.487. During that regular season Shaq averaged 29.3pts 11.5rebs 2.7ast 1stl 2.5blks with eFG%.583. Hakeem averaged 27.8pts 10.8rebs 3.5ast 1.5stls 3.5blks with eFG%.517. Hakeem played 72games avg 39.6mins a game and Shaq played 79games avg 37mins a game. Even with Hakeem avg almost 3mins more a game Shaq put up better numbers. So after all that no Shaq was the better player that 1994-95 season it’s just a 33yrd old prime Hakeem had a lil bit better finals then a 23yr old Shaq. Those are the facts broken down from top to bottom.
be way bigger than everybody else. stay by the hoop. wait for the ball. stuff the ball. Hall of Fame.
RIP Craig!
Lord have mercy
3 of the best centers of all time were in the conference finals that year
I wished Penny and Shaq won at least one ring
Shaq was a beast
Was this the year the 3pt line was shortened?
Yeah it was shirtened in 95 96 and 97.....then in 98 went back to original length it still is
@Willie Gordon the olympic basketball 3 pt line is only like 20 feet lol
I play exactly like Reggie once this guy was talking trash all game and then I scored 8 threes in his face in the 4th quarter
Shaq is wonderful!!! 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞👏👏👏👏👏👏🏀
How did Reggie only make 5 All-Star teams and 3 All-NBA teams?
He didn't bring it during regular season. The Pacers completely missed the playoffs in 1997.
Shaq is wonderful!! 🏀👏🏀👏🏀👏🏀👏🏀👻
This channel must be run by some very young people. Penny Hardaway vs Reggie Miller would have made a lot more sense.
Reggie Happy belated birthday turned 56 Tues!
what's the song around 2:50?
to be COMPLETELY honest i did do and/or probably will SOMEWHAT like the magic because i did do and/or probably will really LOVE shaquille o'neal
Damn I wished he woulda asked bruce or Lawrence taylor. That's closer
Hardaway and Scott didn't get along
RIP Craig Sager
Damn imagine if Reggie had 20 more pounds of actual muscle. COULD BEEN TRUE GOAT.. WTF 🤷♂️
There is something called a gym and also weights. Miller never utilized them. It's his fault.
Unlike his muscled contemporaries he played for almost 20 years wow the rest like penny faded away
For sure if Shaq ever owned a decent jump shot he would definitely be the GOAT
Even with a jump shot he ain’t better than Russel Wilt and KAJ
Calvin Hobbes Shaq was just as strong as Wilt, he had the handles and passing ability like KAJ, he played Defense and could grab the boards as well Russ. Add the jump shot and I think he could take any of them
Juan Reyes Jr ur first sentence proved u know nothing abt Wilt’s strength kid 🧒
Juan Reyes Jr hahaha saying shaq play defense and grab boards like Russel is like saying OJ Mayo shoots fade-away like MJ, come on son ur too funny
Calvin Hobbes laugh away
29 year ago bro?!?! Reggie was a good a scorer as shooter. How he got gapped at the 3 its time to call him scorer not just shooter
Shaq was a ox who had hella game those who say otherwise weren't really watching him he's the 4th best ever in my book. He's 23 housing Indy like this yea I know Houston beat them in the NBA Finals but Shaq & Penny held it down no one else did tho on Orlando sadly
Back when MJ thought he could run mlb too lol
R.I.P Craig
there ya go 😄
How is this a comparison?
Reggie better than Wade, TMac, and Clyde Drexler. He more clutch and that is all that matters. Jordan, Kobe, Miller 123.
Reggie being better than Wade or Drexler is debatable, but I don't know about TMac. Kobe said that TMac was hands down the most difficult player to guard! I don't think Kobe had a problem guarding Miller
Lmao those announcers thinking a foot behind the 3 point line were deep shots...Steph curry has entered the chat
It's Lights vs Big Fella
4:49
A bruised pelvis bone.....ohhh shit
Wow!!!!! that was real basketball, I remember those kind of exciting games, people played rough, I understand the rules this days but it use to be way more exciting
Reggie is SICK
Basketball was great up until the early 2000's people acting like the eras of Allen iverson, vince Carter, t Mac, prime Kobe, and Lakers Shaq wasn't still amazing basketball being played by teams
This is why I stopped watching ...to see how good it was then vs now ..its boring
shaq same move over and over
U no got dang well reggie can't stick shaq
Is it just me, or is Reggie Miller traveling a bit lol
Just a lil bit.. But they wouldn't call that in today's game anyway... It was the playoffs... The refs always swallowed their whistles in the playoffs.
Pacers swept Orlando this series
Bruh...I feel like Joel embiid can do the same exact shit if he really applied himself
skill set is the same thing but shaq is made out of steel but joel is just not built to last a nba season.
The back to the basket game is dead now... Legit post players really don't exist anymore...
david lopez yea he definitely fragile but man it’s so much talent there. I jus feel like he takes games off. The potential is there tho
The Hall Report right. But just imagine if he used his post up more? Then he has a mid range and that’s something shaq never had. Man that’s why Shaq & Charles always upset getting on him
How do you call this a duel. This video should be renamed to "Shaq daddy makes pacers look like school boys while Reggie Miller makes a couple jumpers".
Reggie was great, and an overachiever and all....but just one dunk from Shaquille is worth 3 points; the two on the score and the notch in the heart of the Dunkee. Brutal.
Theres only one super man in the NBA and hes name is Shaquille O'Neill
