gil and rashad like the middle and youngest child😭everyone they be tryna reason they side with is the big bro

It don’t have to be a difference.. the “negative “ it’s just for comedy

[@williamvaughn4418]

@@ocxcalhoun3190 okay .. I didn’t kno based off your comment .. .. the way you said it made it seem like McCants didn’t kno what he talkin about.. So I figured I explain how trash talk work … 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@PatB6788]

Kenyon having that real moment about his son getting traded, then it pans to Mario and average Joe 😂😂😂

[@DDivZzZ]

Really one of the best moments 🤣

[@josheasy6716]

He crying over his son scoring as he should but he got traded not died, Kmart was ODn reacting to son getting traded, wow he’s not in LA, he’s in Philly, Kmart a hundred millionaire & used to traveling not a big deal for him, plus his son dotn get PT neways, wish he stayed in Houston !.. but respect for Kmart love & passion, compassion, admiration for his son

[@josheasy6716]

His son getting traded as he should but he got traded not died *

[@BluJae93]

@@josheasy6716they seem close though and he probably can’t just up and move to Philly. And he wants his son to be happy so I get it.

[@KaimWelcher]

nah that joint is hilarious😆

[@EddieCane69]

Gil bullshitting that shooting contest to lose just so he could finesse McCants into putting up more money just to flame him 😂 McCants said no quick as hell 😂😂

[@jazzyfour]

Thats what hustlers do. 😂

[@yoshikigrg8]

Gil wanted that 100 real bad. 😂

[@nautilus6038]

McCants would have smoked Gil… real talk

[@SmhItzCrazyOutChea]

@@nautilus6038Right .. 💯🤷🏿‍♂️ At least dat day 4sho Lmao Gil can act like he ain’t care about shooting at first but if you look at his reaction to his misses you can tell his competitiveness started to kick in and some of them shots he was putting up he thought he was gonna go in and then IRT quickly tried acting like he was distracted by side talking🤦🏿‍♂️ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@nimbus9954]

Coping mechanisms.

[@TheOuttaPocketVarietyShow]

Ya'll gotta do a Club 520 collab episode next year! Jeff Teague and Brandon Jennings are both 09 Draft alumni and the storytelling is gonna be HILARIOUS 😂

[@Bnavy207]

Especially with Jeff teague Co host

[@GlueGuy20]

Nah, much respect to Jeff Teague, but I don't know the guys he with. This pod have real NBA hoopers, I'd listen to these guys coz they been there.

[@TheOuttaPocketVarietyShow]

@@GlueGuy20 Entertainment. The mix of them with Josiah, Gil, Rashad and even Kenyon as serious as he is, it would be entertaining as fuck. Doesn't matter if they didn't play. If you enjoy strictly high IQ basketball talk, you'd listen to JJ Redick and Tim Legler or Thinking Basketball.

[@GlueGuy20]

@@TheOuttaPocketVarietyShow yeah different people have different takes. Yeah I f*ck with JJ and Legs too, coz again, they've been there. They are credible sources. 🤷

[@wesleyreese7647]

Jeff Teague Annoys Me 🤔🤔

[@Miks_Petersons]

Best basketball show since Inside the NBA on TNT which was stopped years back and this is just in the beginning stage of production really taking off. Gil you're my favorite player and i wish you more success in the NBA entertainment space. Looking forward to many more great moments, salute to you and your team 0.

[@danielchilders8346]

30:31 arguably the greatest moment in this shows history. Gil is iconic

[@kenyonjohnson6937]

The fact that the Pat Bev episode was the most viewed but aint no clips on this video is crazy

[@Mariners206]

Niggas was lowkey beefing on live tv 😂

[@Laurenfishburne]

I felt so hard for Kmart SR he choked up talking about his son you can tell he wants the best for his son. Really broke my heart seeing him like that

[@Nooneshouldknowme]

His son should've stay with rockets SMH he was solid just needed mins

[@yazaih8515]

"babe, do the trick you did at the house" ..... IM DYING ...... GIL YOU WILD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gil just makes up stuff!

[@BumFluffer1999]

44:40 I’m shocked no one even bothered to say KD, the man changed the SF and PF position forever as ball handling big man that can snipe from anywhere on the floor off the dribble or off the catch. Don’t sleep on the slim reaper.

[@jamaalglenn8749]

Miko was talking like cause of what you do for a living they can't have a regular convo

Gill naming point guards for a SG argument is the point. Great players don’t make great coaches man or great commentators. He’s fun for stories tho no cap 😂

[@WinstonbndmkdkmzmmsmskeskStoke]

Kenyon acting like his son got sent to Afghanistan smfh

[@richardcollins2622]

Only a dad with a strong connection with his son would understand…I get it. Sounds like maybe that’s not your situation if you don’t get it.

[@m.s.9535]

Brandon saying that about T Mac and Anfernee Hardaway is insane.

Kenyon Martin crying that his son was traded?

[@ajthompson7000]

😂😂😂 lol

Damn I judged Kenyon a lot but now I realize why he got that tough guy guard up much respect for being real about your son that’s some real shit 🙏🏽

I like how gil is acting like the nba isnt full of addicts right now

I had to guard KJ in travel ball in 2017. Dude was crazy back then too, hoping he sticks somewhere 💯

[@KingstonHawke]

I love that big light skinned dude. He the Ernie of this. Just calm cool and collected in the midst of madness.

Where can I buy those Favorites snap back they wear ?

[@jamelharris1668]

In the Gil exposing the ref Bj look like Martin when they stole his radio

[@jw138]

All the young boys out there need to see the man K Martin getting emotional like that. Does a lot to stamp out that myth real men don’t show any emotions other than anger.

[@sloanmartin6512]

You really shooting on a jump ball rim. Crazy

[@czarbizzare5444]

Even do I don’t agree with Gil a lot of times ya gotta give it to him he really loves the game and knows his history. That tween generation address was insightful

[@jeffbruton3334]

Gil is telling the truth

[@joeblow9904]

Shaq was dominating from the jump they put Jordan out

[@SupremeGon]

Gil knows his stuff sometimes, but the way he acts like he's never wrong is hilarious.

[@kingceez5982]

2000s is the golden era of bball it REALLY went global around that time mj and them started it with the olypmics in 92 but trchnology couldnt bring the masses together with a click of a button just yet but 2000s when the net became more common basketball itself took off on a whole nother scale and they had star power on every team

[@NorthWestBudsTheBest]

What's his name again?? 😂 Gil knows that's gonna piss rob off. Lol😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@fredro2363]

Imagine you venting about your son getting traded then the camera switch to Mario and average joe like that lmao

[@PokerRosses00]

Gil acts like he know everything.

[@chriskeepit100]

When Brandon Jennings said I'm not a Penny Hardaway fan or a TMac Mac fan,they did nothing for me,I had to turn it off 🤦🏽‍♂️ 1:38:08 he says that goofy shit

[@emaj2323]

You can definitely tell when these guys are hating. In my opinion they do alot of that especially on guys that are actually champions. Cuz we know these ain't won shit lol. Alot of times I even have a hard time giving their opinions the credit they think they deserve cuz I've watched all of their careers and know who they are. But beyond d that they do give some great takes on some things going on. But sometimes they talk better than they were from to me

[@glamify524]

Lexi is cute asf

[@herealittlewhile7448]

Yes and Gil can be an idiot

[@image1812]

If you lost you lost, you just gotta come back and win that’s it. no excuses I can tell you work for clutch sports.
