Iman Shumpert on Steph, LeBron, Kobe, Westbrook, Harden, Kyrie, Carmelo, DWTS (Full Interview)

Iman Shumpert came through for another VladTV interview, and this time around, he started off speaking about his predictions for the NBA Finals. After stating that he thinks the Warriors and Celtics will face off for the championship, Iman shared his thoughts on Chris Paul, which led to the often-discussed debate about LeBron Vs Kobe Vs Jordan. Iman also spoke about his time with the Knicks, his music career, and acting in “The Chi” and “Twenties.” Moving along, Iman addressed athletes like Allen Iverson starting music careers, feeling like he would’ve helped out the Brooklyn Nets this season, and investments he’s made. To hear more, including Iman sharing his thoughts on leasing vs buying cars, hit the full interview above.

[@daseansuper]

Shumpert broke the game down like a true baller. Dude can be a analyst. He thinks outside the box, unlike most humans.

[@mapopperoozio]

He's a veteran pro player. If he didn't understand the game he plays professionally after all these years then something is definitely wrong 🙄

[@jasonu3741]

I dont know, I liked Gilbert Arena's analysis at first but then it just turned into "get more guards and score more" was his solution to every situation. Shump however breaks it down front to back with multiple solutions not just "if you had more guards you would tire them out on defense, and then score on them"

[@FirefighterBobby]

Incredible to read this. I see this completely opposite, he sucks in my oppinion. The man prefers James to Luka because of his body, even tho' Luka showed it to the world for the last 7 years. Same reason I hate black coaches.

Been waiting for the entire thing since I saw a clip Iman is always a great guest wherever he goes, fantastic interview.

[@vincentbrown1872]

Who cares what a no talent but lucky to play in the NBA former pro has to say ??????? He killed the Knicks as a starter often scoring no points. Anything goes and anything can be liked on the Internet and that includes the poor interviewer Vlad ( thinks he's the star of the interview ) and people yapping about everything like Shumpert. I don't listen to these poor interviews, but beyond declaring how lucky he was to have a career with no talent I can't imagine him having anything worthwhile to say.

[@nemer473]

@@vincentbrown1872 I find it ironic, quite frankly. You say who cares about what he has to say and yet here you are listening. In any case, quite a shame to waste your time replying to something on a video you care not for. Regardless, I’m glad you have Vlad another view, more dollars in his pocket either way and I’m sure the dislike you have the video will go a long way as well! Take care :)

[@vincentbrown1872]

@@nemer473 not wasting my time at all saying what I want to say. What's a waste of time is your take on what I posted. Who cares what you think ? People are free to comment on public figures. Miscreants and what's bad about the internet is private people like you trying to get personal with other private individuals ( who could not possibly care what you think ) instead of posting something worthy of thought!

[@nemer473]

@@vincentbrown1872 depending on the creator, one may comment as they wish and get a comment or a like back. It’s happened with me quite a few times, actually. What I find funny is you continuously coming back to trash talk someone who simply put their opinion on a video because they enjoy the content and enjoy basketball in general. The man was apart of a team that won arguably the hardest ring in the history of the NBA, he has my respect regardless of what he’s done prior or after that season within basketball. No need to get upset with someone’s opinion, you sound like the “miscreants” you just spoke up thinking your opinion will be validated simply by posting and reporting on someone else’s comment that was initially there to speak on how I’ve enjoyed the interview. Your opinion, invalidated entirely by the negativity you brought forth when you decided to think badly after clicking on the video. As previously stated, if you aren’t a fan of the man to begin with nor the interviewer who spoke with him, why click in the first place? Both your first and second replies are rendered entirely mute based on your mindset within your second reply. Anyway, I will no longer be replying to you, good day!

1:30:15 FACTS. They had talent but that only works for a minute until the adversity hits then you need leaders that are focused. It was 3 of (now 2) the most iffy ppl w/unique play styles. If it was easy it would work for every team that tried. Winning isn't easy
