Employee #8!!! Nuff said!
Minn draft workout " it was Wing heaven, they brought all of us together, had us play 1 on 1".."who came out on top"?…"Come on man!"…love it
Boy can’t wait to shit on T.Parker any chance he gets. 🤦🏽 lmao!
I remember his Lil shimmy he use 2 do when he was cooking it was even n NBA live hilarious but he stayed cooking…
Lmao why is Stephen Jackson doing your ads? He sounds like he is screaming
Shout out to DG’s 🫡
Notice all the real hoopers talk about how cold Pierce was, from the jump! Then came back and played 82 after being stabbed that’s as tough and determined as it gets
Twan eating well, thought he was broke…
Randy Livingston ⚜️💯
We been waiting on this one 🔥
Need the beasley interview
Antonio was underated.There were times he was unstoppable.
Antoine Walker's game is perfect for today's game, a big that can shoot anywhere. This guy would be a superstar.
Hold tight!
So he made a bet bet lost and didn't want to pay?
That's like loaning your homeboy $100 and the mother f*** want to pay you $10 at a time.
Come'on bro.
That's crazy AF.
Bet if he won that Milly he'd want that s*** that instant.
IDK sounds crazy the way he said it.
Glad they got Antoine Walker.
His shoe the A-Walk was dope 💯
Dude is an example for young people on how to own up your mistakes and be a grown man and take care of business. Don’t follow crowds or even family members. You gotta follow what’s best for you. Great interview! 👍
Cyber twon ran wit them chi raw goons don't let basketball fool u he kept hitters around still today and they love em 2
Wade over Paul and it isn't even close. Thought J. Rose been put that debate to rest.
Yes Paul pierce was a dope player but he never reached the level of D Wade! Argue wit ya momma! Man said Paul was a better scorer?? How sway?? Paul never won a scoring title wade did, wade has a higher scoring avrg for career. Wade was a great post scorer just like paul, but paul had a better 3pt shot thats it. Paul has more pts total for his career but played almost 300 more gms to barley lead wade in total pts. Wade made all defensive teams paul didnt! I think Jalen already debunked this foolishness! That comment was a friend protecting a friends ego! Cmon walker u better than that!
I've heard Antione on ESPN as an analyst and he was very good. They hired Perkins because he's a clown and they act like he's the next Barkley.
Pauly was never on DWades level until Wade's knees gave out. This man probably paid his gambling debt. Smh
One of the Best out of the city and a Real one
Twan is the fucking man!
Awesome interview 😂
Tim Thomas and this guy were pretty much the bigs who I dominated during early 2K days with 3s.
For people that thought Paul Pierce was overlooked & underrated that's definitely hell yes but I felt like they never should've broke up Paul Pierce & Antonie Walker & added KG & Ray Allen years later Antonie Walker should've been on that 2008 Celtics championship even though he won an championship in 2006 with the Heat the Celtics should've traded for him back around that time
84 draft, 96 draft, & 03 draft all three the best drafts ever in that order…….
The less Stephen Jackson talks , the more I enjoy this show .
