METTA WORLD PEACE Compares Michael Jordan, Kobe, and Lebron | I AM ATHLETE

[@johnjovanovichwick4194]

Ron gave all the greats their just dues without belittling any of em, showed no hate in his veins just maturity and he spoke the truth 💯 we need more Metta Worldpeace interviews.

Pacman's progression as a host/interviewer has been outstanding. The show has found a great groove.

True..

[@terryallenthinks9421]

I agree but it wasn’t needed for Ron… if u look at Mettas mannerisms he felt uncomfortable there around Brandon and Pac-Man when he should of felt his most comfortable…. That’s because their trying to portray a different image…. Respect.. but they gotta learn how to navigate between when to use that n when not… just my opinion

i haven't forgotten the day when i heard on the radio. that there was a crash and it could of been Kobe Bryant and others along with him. it was so sad. it was foggy and thick in the san fernando valley. all i know was i going to the grocery store to get food and to make for lunch and then when the radio said that i was like.. no way........ and then it was true.... It was hard to swallow. we were all hurting.

[@dymechoice21]

I'm proud of Brandon 👏🏽 He's worked on cutting people off and changing the subject more fluidly. PacMan brings a beautiful, raw sense of genuineness that I love. 💯

[@trustplanet]

Now he needs to work on not forcing people to talk about things they don’t want to talk about. They need better questions. Constantly nagging them to talk more when they don’t feel comfortable talking to you in that way.

I love hearing Ron Artist speak. People are always dealing with something. Humans are flawed creatures, born and raised by other flawed creatures. Many social media platforms tends to depict the opposite most of the time. I like KZbin the most for the reason people get the chance to verbally depict themselves: whether that’s to bs the viewers or to be sincere & honest. Or many times both 🙂😁 This one felt pure, however.

[@ATHTSupply]

You don’t understand Ron Artest of today without finding out who or what Ron was during the Malice at the Palace…. It’s a negative but it will always be the largest talking point when brining up Ron. Because you see the layers… And instead of allowing it to be a demon he has to constantly fight , he embraces it entirely. The malice in the palace is a staple in Not only NBA history , Sports history. Even the most recent documentary on Netflix opened a new side of the story nobody paid much attention to and that’s Jermaine O’Neal
