NBA Big 3's That FAILED Miserably

The 2021-22 Lakers is the definition of a disaster. Terrible offense, horrible defense, and hilariously awful chemistry overall.

Yes the lakers of 2021 - 2022 did fail and everyone saw it coming

the bench 3 of Kahwi, PG, Wall didn't last a season. It's a shame.

My biggest what if “Big 3” was when Gary Payton and Karl Malone joined the mid 2000s Lakers. I know it was technically more than 3 stars but Malone and Payton count for 0.5 stars each at that point in their careers cuz they were old 🤷🏽‍♂️

I think pretty much everyone knew Westbrook was a bad fit to begin with on the Lakers. I don't think however that everyone expected for it to be THAT bad. But man, I really wanted it to work, personally. But it wasn't to be.

The Lakers Big 3 attempts were always torn apart by injuries. The Malone and Payton one was derailed by Malone's injury and he never got fully back to form. Prior to Malone going down the Lakers were 20-4 and cruising. The 2012 Lakers were derailed by Nash first getting bulldozed by Isaiah Thomas unnecessarily in the pre-season, and then getting his leg broken in a freak accident by Damian Lillard and then of course Kobe right at the end of the season. If Malone or Nash and by extension Kobe never go down with injury, both those Lakers big threes could have been successful and one of those still made the Finals albeit in a losing effort. So it was more so injuries that derailed them more so than the fits just 'not working'. A TRUE Superteam failure that doesn't have the injury excuse is the 2019 76ers. They had Joel Embiid, Jimmy Butler, Ben Simmons, Tobias Harris, JJ Redick. And they lost to Toronto in a 7 Game Series. And despite Ben Simmons always being a scapegoat of some kind, nobody talked about Embiid's 17 PPG performance on 37% Field Goal Percentage across that entire series. Particularly his 11 point game on 28% Field Goal where he shot the ball 7 times and the 76ers lost by 5.. but Joel escapes criticism for that series. But the 2019 76ers was an actual Superteam fail that had to do with players coming up short more so than injuries.

Correction: the 2011 vetoed Laker trade would not give Kobe a big three. Pau Gasol would have been traded to the Rockets, as it was a 3-team trade

The Nets Fell Apart 💀

3:57 The 3-1 blown lead was actually in 2015, not 2014. In 2014 they choked against the Thunder.

This is so well edited, love how you edited this and flowed all the Big 3s together

As a nets fan for so many years, it hurts every time you show the video of k d's toe. I was there in person and I'm about to cry again.

Kobe said it best The goal was to win a championship," Bryant said. "It wasn't to win MVP or anything like that, it was to win a championship. So in that aspect, we failed."

If Kyrie aint go down in the first round against bucks aint no doubt that the nets would have won the title that year

To be fair to Charles, he said that he wouldn't have counted a championship like that. Not sure how much that means considering they lost, but it's there.

This bout to be lit 🔥

Dammn Kobe at 34 makes Lebron at 38 look younger lol

Great video 👏👏

Love it ❤

Lmao I remember when people had avenger memes about the Lakers with Dwight and Nash, hilarious how that turned out

Dope video
