I’m 40 now. And1 was 100% responsible for my love of basketball. Specifically seeing Hot Sauce do the things he was doing with a basketball made the entire sport so cool to me and my friends. So glad it existed when it did. Shame it never made a real comeback. I’m now showing my son the old tapes.

[@KCClassic7]

And 1 was also my introduction to Basketball as well. I always thought the NBA players were cool, but it was something about the AND1 players that was so much cooler. I remember 2003-2005 waiting week to week to watch the AND1 mixtape tour on ESPN. Some of my fondest moment as a kid!!!

[@Da_Humble_Life]

Damn so u 40 and u aint like basketball during thr jordan era before and 1?

[@jamaaldagreatest2748]

It's so hilarious though hearing Iman Shumpert talk about how NBA players were calling that man Hot Sauce, Ketchup when he tried out for the league lmao

[@MECCATHEMANHIMSELF]

I am 40 and my love for the game of basketball came from that classic sports illustrated vhs tape with the greats players of the 90’s on them.. yes And 1 was impactful but I guess we all find out love for things in different ways!!

[@markelscott100]

And1 was my introduction to crazy dunks

[@chadshouse2059]

I am 36 yrs old and AND1 Streetball was something i lived for, slept for, and dreamed of growing up. I had all of the mixtapes, i watched everything they ever put out and then some. I remember when "The Professor" first joined the And1 team and i immediately found my favorite basketball player because we had a lot in common, I was a smaller white kid with red hair hooping at courts with nothing but older men, I was short but fast, I managed to build myself up using moves i learned from watching And1 streetball mixtapes which made me stand out on the courts. The rise of And1 was an amazing moment in our history and something special for those who truly loved basketball and the game. Now i sit here and watch Ballislife and or Professor Live and think about the And1 days and truly miss it. I feel like something needs to take off again, i feel like someone could recreate something similar to And1 but make it better, bigger and succeed. If anyone could do it, it would be "The Professor". The fact that this man has built himself up in such a great way since the whole And1 moment ended means so much to someone who has followed him since day 1.

[@HighSeasonAI]

Hope he readcthis

[@TheYungSesShow]

And1 was a huge part of my life growing up. I remember being in middle school and high school studying the mixtapes and trying to pull off those moves at park runs like hot sauce, AO, skip, etc and of course the espn show. It sucks that And1 didn't stay together but their impact and influence on streetball/basketball still lives on to this day

[@elmasmiller4371]

And1 might have been more that people even realize, im from germany and there was no NBA on TV back then, there was no german basketball, we were just playing, and then someone found an And1 mixtape in a skateshop, it was the only exposure of basketball we had and we would watch it religiously over and over again. it really meant a lot to us and that impact can never be taken away

[@ber3al53]

I feel ya man! Same here. It never aired on TV here in The Netherlands. I found it via guys i played ball with. Really miss those basketball days man. Hell, kids nowadays that play ball don't even know what and1 is🥲 Sigh... anyway, this makes me want to play streetball again😎

[@theDriveGuy84]

I'm the same age as the Professor, and really enjoyed a trip down memory lane watching this documentary. I owned all the AND 1 tapes, and CDs. I remember in 2002, my senior year of Highschool, and watching ESPN2 to see the latest episode of the Mix Tape tour. Before, smart phones, social media, etc. you had to either be there to see it, or someone had a camcorder and recorded it. It was a different time, where you really appreciated being there in person, and possibly seeing something you could only retell. THanks to the Professor for clearing somethings up. People forget that movie directors, and producers love twisting things around to sell a story.

[@openmindz7689]

Same, I think we all around the same age. Anyways I never trust netflix documentaries finding out the people creating it is trying to push a narrative or agenda. Just like the cp5 documentary/movie/show. Finding out most of it were lies. So people trying to do and1 trying to make it as the players were at fault was foul.

Now, thanks to social media; he has a platform to showcase his talent and who he truly is. My man is an inspiration to millions of young ballers around the world. I’m very happy to see that he’s made the most of his gift for himself and all of his followers over the years.

I hope somebody will do a real documentary about AND1 Mixtape Tour and how it changed the basketball culture. 30 for 30 was good, but it was focused more on the music, Netflix was great, but it feels like it was missing something. We need another documentary or NWA type movie about AND1 Tour and it's players.

[@DFishFan]

I'm 30, AND-1 molded my showmanship, and care for the community that it built. The style was on point at the time and it's a shame what happened but you've taken a wonderful approach to it. I appreciate you for always sharing how you feel with us, peace!

Cool story from back in the days! I was at the riverbank state park in NYC, I got there early and began to ball. I was about to leave when I saw a massive group of people heading my way, I'm like "what's going on?" So I decided to sit down on the stands, it turns out to be And1 recording a mix tape, man talk about luck!! I had no idea this was going to happen and ended up seeing one of the best basketball games of all time, also that's when I saw a young professor do his thing with the big dogs! That's a core memory for me!

The Professor... Huge Talent... Incredible longevity to still be doing it... and such an excellent spokesperson for the game/humble - and always does the shoutouts

[@KCClassic7]

Absolutely loved this documentary. It brought back so many great memories from my childhood. I wish more of the guys were able to come on and share their experiences and stories, but that's okay. To this day I still keep up with AND1 wishing they will be able to spark that fire one more time. I also noticed the flow of the documentary was out of rhythm as well. Similar to what Professor said, I honestly don't remember that Nike commercial holding as much weight as the owners made it seem. Like it was a cool commercial with a ton of great athletes in it, but that was about it. The main thing I remember about the And1 shoes were the price as a kid. They were always affordable and from what I remember pretty good quality at the time.

[@tikas408]

Thanks for the insight professor. As a 43yr old man, And1 tshirts were super hot back in the early 90's like 1994 and onwards. You had to have one of those shirts that talked hella trash. The shoes were never a thing for some of us because the variety of Nike shoes in the mid 90s were too good, from the Kidds, the Pennys, the Pippens, etc. I would consider it a ride into the sunset as you mentioned because it was a great memory of the past when And1 was at it's peak.

[@MikeBesk]

I was blessed to be balling in NYC during the prime And-1 run. Still balling out to this day!

Later in PE freshman year doing a call back move as a tribute to yall and faking a shot then bouncing the ball off the back of a kids head, the kid wasn't pleased. Played basketball my entire youth and still knew the term and1 from you guys first before I ever heard it in the extra point foul setting. Glad to see the professor still around.

I met Aaron Owens(AO) a long time ago while I worked at wawa. I’m talking like 10 years ago now I think, he came into my job and it was super weird how fast I recognized him. I immediately lit up with excitement. I worked in the food section so I couldn’t just go up to him nor did I want to be weird so I didn’t. He must have caught me looking at him though cause he came over to my section and before even ordering he looked at all of us and said “ Wassup guys, working the overnight I see” I immediately fanned out and said “ bro….I’m a huge fan bro, you’re actually my favorite and1 player bro”. Yes I said bro that many times, I was a little excited to meet him ngl. My coworker at the time had no clue who he was lol. I legit spent hours upon hours watching and1 and loving how creative they could be. He was super nice, patient and cool. He just spoke to us for like ten minutes and I think he was more surprised that I was such a huge fan. Which made me like him even more tbh, he was super humble. I’ll never forget meeting him.

One of many times locked up in juvenile detention as a teenager is when I first saw the And1 Mixtape and Professor on the tv we watched in there…and now like 15 years later I still love watching this dude and the skill he continually builds on. He had my respect from the jump cause I’m sure he had to work hard af to stand out the way he did back then…and all these years later he’s still at it with his game improved. And even with all he’s done he’s still got that humble attitude when it’s necessary about all these folks and their negative views on him. You really just gotta respect the work he’s put in and where it took him…cause 99% of people only dream of doing what he did.

[@tongpocalypse151]

Great honest take on the business side of why and how it ended the way it did. The owners wanted to cash out from their investment. They viewed it as a business venture all along, which is not what the players viewed it as, so of course there will be some misunderstandings and hurt feelings. Rafer and the Professor recognized the business component for what it was, while some of the other guys had a harder time separating the game from the business (and no blame to them, because they put in so much into making the brand what it was).

Watching And1 always made me want to play. It was sad when they had that tribute for Flash. Great vid and I also like the documentary.

My nickname in high school was And 1 because I wore it religiously. 20 years later I still buy it till this day. Got a pair of all black Tai Chi's they need to rerelease

Watched all the and1 as a kid. I'll never forget them. Literally owned all vhs tapes. Wish I knew where they ended up! You and hot sauce was my two favorites of all time and I wish you two made that step to the NBA would of been awesome. I love watching your videos on here as it's like watching and1 for me and reminds me of that.

And1 brought kids out to hoop EVERYDAY and showed us how to be yourself and have fun while winning. It was motivation seeing people professionally play ball other than overseas and the NBA. I picked up something from everybody on the squad and still carry those lessons with me today... Salute to you all!! 💯💯💯💯

Sheesh congrats on the series my boy💪🏽

[@newthrash1221]

The morally correct outcome should have been young hoopers signing contracts with an attorney reading everything they sign...but that's what rich CEO's do; they take advantage of young talent. Buy low and sell high. Hopefully a lot of youngsters learn from veteran mistakes and hold their talent closely until their talent and potential commodity is matched. "Don't let no one eat better than you, off your hard work."

What an awesome time in America the And 1 era was. We were all friends

I had a few of the and 1 mix tape dvds and loved watching them. Then when I lived in Japan I got to see the and 1 mix tape tour in Oosaka and that blew my mind to see players in real life.

Thank you for what you did with And1 and all that you are still doing today. Respect!

[@deesplayworldtv]

Shout out to Night Train and The Pharmacist, two of my favorite And1 opps, that shot of Night Train floating dunking, then the camera panning out as they beat And1 was amazing. Yeah street all was definitely about winning because And1 was pissed when they lost. 2:00

It probably was sad for Doc because it brought back memories of the ABA folding which was And 1 before AND1. The only difference was that it wasn't a league where players had the opportunity to play in the NBA. RIP to Troy Escalade Jackson my childhood friend and former CYO teammate. RIP to Alimoe Evans aka The Black Widow. I am extremely proud of my brother Rafer Skip To My Lou Alston and all that he is doing in the basketball community today.

Respect for being very honest here acknowledging the bits they got right and giving credit where it was due, but also to the bits you needed to correct or didn’t like/appreciate saying your piece without bashing.

Just a few months ago I was rewatching the And 1 Reality show here on KZbin and One of the big factors of the show was how hard the OG's were on the newbie team when they lost. The whole " Winning doesn't matter" thing rubbed me the wrong way too because there were lots of clips where if the visiting newbie team wasn't playing well the OG's had PLENTY to say . I loved the Documentary for the most part though and super appy to hear you dug it to Professor !

It would be dope if you guy could do a Reunion ! Love you guys !
