If it was the nba that shut him down then that just shows that their reps are incompetent. His channel was the best free marketing they could possibly ever get

They told me at that time, I wasn't in trouble but to stay under the radar and keep doing what I'm doing. Never heard back from them since. The two individuals I spoke with seemed to be contacting me unbenownst to any powers that be so I'm not sure the NBA as a whole is aware of my channel.
This is good to read.

The NCAA thing was in February and after that, yeah I couldn't find any NCAA vids on his channel anymore.

Titles are overrated
Re: YouTube terminates DawkinsMTA's account
Never heard from the NBA but some guy from Dime magazine told me he was a fan. I got a subscription and found I had the featured youtube video discussed in the magazine like 4 months one year. I had a Steve Francis video jump to like half a million views because of Dime. Bill simmons and yahoo put up the Bird one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULvo7__wwBU
And I got hated on for the song a million times.
Its nothing but free press for the league. Nobody I know ever tried to sell anything. They should have been happy.
The players sure dont give a shit. Melo had a video I made of him on his official site for a while. I think Arenas did too.
Who is losing anything?

Re: YouTube terminates DawkinsMTA's account
It's almost like they don't understand that anyone can get the footage of games if they try. It's not hard at all. I've been torrenting games for years. I still have the Celtics Lakers series from 08. When TNT had that cool Linkin Park theme.

The NFL doesnt play at all though. You get a warning for every use of their footage.
That's insane. Just wanna let you know I've always been a huge fan of your mixes

Re: YouTube terminates DawkinsMTA's account
Also...I notice the first video that comes up on youtube/google when you search for Wilt is one of yours. The first mix that comes up when you look for Bird is that one I made.
Had I known kids would be introduced to Larry Bird by it possibly forever id have taken more than half an hour making it and not included so many already well known plays. But it was made for ISH...posted on a private FTP that ISH users had access to over 10 years ago. And now it represents the first look at Larry Bird for some kids who heard the name and googled him.
Im kinda annoyed. I could have done a lot better.
At least your Wilt ones are informative.

Re: YouTube terminates DawkinsMTA's account
It's sad... NBA's channel start mimicking single performance breakdowns a la dawkins, kietasss, etc. But they ALWAYS manage to **** up the sound, make shitty transitions & essentially get put to shame by the likes of Dawk ins & the rest.

He posted full game highlights of players if they had a good game.
For example: LeBron James Full Highlights 61 points
Carmelo Anthony 62 points
stuff like that... He had thousands of videos
