- Los Angeles, California’s finest, Swaggy P, joins the fellas on this week’s episode of Knuckleheads with Quentin Richardson and Darius Miles. The guys get right into what life as a high school and college basketball star in L.A. was like for the young man then known simply as Nick Young. He reveals that he really wanted to stay in town after USC, and hoped that the Clippers would pick him in the draft. Then the talk turns from L.A. to D.C. and to playing for the Wizards. Swaggy P drops some hilarious stories about Gilbert Arenas and how close the two got over their years in Washington. Gil even loaned him his $2 million pool when he got traded away from the Wizards, and their relationship has stayed strong ever since. Gil even has a celebrated beef with Nick’s oldest son. Nick then touches on his trade to the Lakers and how excited he was to get back home. Asked by the guys about Kobe, he tells some funny - and revealing - stories, including one about a 4 a.m. workout at which Kobe came across more coach than teammate. The talk turns to the origin of the Swaggy P nickname and then Nick tells what it meant to him to win a championship with the Warriors. Nick, er, Swaggy then talks about his own brand, Most Hated, and gives his take on fashion in the league these days, specifically who he thinks has the most swag in the NBA. Swaggy P never fails to bring the celebrations and the chill California vibes. Tune in!

Great quote
Knuckleheads n All the Smoke running shit rn. Cant wait for nba back... Thursdays gonna be super lit
They be releasing they videos on the same day.
@Marcus Hopsin Gill's podcast isn't on that level though.
Shawn it's a shame for these sisters to act childish from Karlie's situation from the STREETZ Love & Hip Hop topic.
This comet's to Mr. Blazington!
@Marcus Hopsin I fw no chill but that's tier 2
Knuckleheads n All the Smoke tier 1
Swaggy P is the perfect example of what having a positive attitude can do for your life
Real talk
I was just thinking that.
Yeah, he is a great person positive and layed back. But this not what great athletes are made of. Totally forgettable as a NBA player. A bust.
@@Jux925 bust is a strong word for someone who wasn't expected to be much anyway but you're definitely right about his attitude an being a non impact player
Juhan Voolaid idk if he forgettable if u actually watched hoop in the new millennium
“He got black shades on like man there’s no sun out here” LMAOOOO
Shaggy p and Gil should have an animated series based on their stories
Swaggy P. For his Swagger
They have the bread to " Invest " in that. Kobe did in his business ventures. But you have to have a mind for it.
"Thats why he Kobe"Kobe reminds me of Batman. Batman is legit insane. He puts himself through so much just to be great .Like the story of him defeating Superman just to prove a point Kobe was the same way. Feeling like an outcast as a child , injuries, shaq(superman) leaving . Playing through all that and still having a great career he will always be my favorite player .
eboogieb8 as a comics nerd and an nba fanatic this makes me happy
eboogieb8 don't forget he snitched on Shaq and caused his wife to leave him because he was caught up in a sexual assault case. He's no MJ.
@@simonjohnson514 thats snitching or keeping shit 100 ? keeping shit 50/50
@@simonjohnson514 stfu. Mj cheated on his wife you know that right? Shaq ex wife shaunie was a gold digger who left the person she was with for shaq and she was putting money away until shaq caught her dumb ass. Know somethin before you say somethn. Soggy apple jacks eatn ass
Exactly. And Kobe always had a Plan B,C,D etc if someone stopped his Plan A. He always had a counter move, just like Batman. He really was Batman man R.I.P
Kobe : yea the Drew league cool
Two mins later
Kobe : enuff of that shit 😂
He hasnt stop smiling the whole interview that's wassup
well that's why he got Wrinkles ;)
DONT let nothing distract yall from the fact Nick Young said "Third-ary" after "Secondary"
Ar Gadgets odd lmaoo time stamp ?
I heard that..😂 but let it go cause its Swaggy P...
D Miles said top 50est in the Zeke interview lmao I was dying
Yeah he says a lot of wrong words like that. Gilbert Arenas says Nick Young is special ed slow
@@sixfiftychris Nothing wrong with that though, he may read like the one kid who took 2 minutes to read a sentence but he's got money lol
Love how everyone still talks about Kobe in present tense 💜💛
i think it was recorded before but ion know
Jonathan Mubalamata go sit down somewhere
Jesaire Daizy shut up
That Kobe (RIP) story @ 21:20 had me crying laughing “y’all worry bout that sh*t later” 😂 perfect impression by Swaggy P lol #MambaForever
Yooo 🤣🤣
I'm ctfu at that part 😂😂😂😂😂
I need knuckleheads, Gill, and All the smoke in one mega show.
Corn balls Gill should stay home on that one tho
Gil is WEAK!!!
ALI HUTTON chill.... gil is the fucking man
Gil need to go solo or get swaggy to be a cohost on his pod.
It just goes to show that you don't need a co host or moderator.
"Raef Lafrentz dunked on my ass...two times in a row" LMAO
LMMMMMLLL
dude thank you so much. i couldnt understand who the fuck he said
Who dat?
I actually appreciated Nick asking Q and D-Miles questions, I notice on podcasts nowadays people don't have conversations rather than interviews.
That's what makes podcasts special... When its conversation, it's a shame when it isn't. I usually turn that sh.t off
I feel like nick young and Gilbert arenas need to be interviewed together all the time.....HAHAHA
That John Wall-Nick Young combo was seriously underrated 🔥🔥
KnuckleHeads still got the face to face content. That’s how you know they was working-working. They got content in the clip. ✊🏾✊🏾 on keeping the community sane‼️
15:31 when d miles said “you know what I hate, when they air my highlights on nba tv but not on espn.. I need my shit to air on all networks 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Swaggy P's smile is annoyingly infectious lol Love this dude!
Wizards nick was a monster though!
I cant even picture him mad
I swear him and DRAM are two dudes who u can just hear their voice and know their smiling lol
Y’all gotta get him Nd Gil together 😂
Lol yeah they should but even Gil had a good episode too
Andra Griffith where you been at
Gil gave the most honest entertaining interview. Watching it as I'm typing this
Watch the Road trippin podcast that RJ and Channing host. Hilarious
@@roythao6624 facts
Swaggy P and Gil stories be funny asf ong 😂💯🗣
Nick Young is hilarious
Kobe work ethic was insane . RIP 😢
Brandon Roy!!! We need him on the pod
I remember going to his camp at Oaks Christian when I was like 13. Think it was his rookie or 2nd year in the league. Didn’t really know who bro was. But he was a bucket at the camp. When I got home and looked him up on CZcams first thing that popped up was him punching on Bron. After that followed him ever since. Swaggy been a certified bucket fasho 💯
I find it so hilarious how Q-rich points at D-miles like that at the start every episode 0:08
D miles don’t even trip no more lol
Right! Like we don't know who he talkin bout🤣🤣🤣
It's for dramatic effect! Da Blackest One!👉
@Chuba thats funny? Would it be funny if he said the whitest one to someone? Invisible sandwhich eatn ass
Nick started the 3-pt sign after making a 3 pointer with the hole over the eye! Swaggy P in the building! Thanks D.Miles +Q-Rich!🏀🇺🇸
KOBE said yall can talk about that sh*t later lol lol RIP blackmamba
LOL
Kobe got HOF trash talk
This one of my favorite episodes and I ain’t even halfway in. Kobe stories had me.
that drew league story tho 😂
Mane I swear that whole drew story lol y'all worry about that shit later. I just hearing Kobe saying that in my head lol R.I.P. Mamba!
Yall shouldve asked nick who didnt bust his ass 😂😂😂😂😂. Nigga played no defense whatsoever 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Lmfbao
😂😂😂😂
LMBOOO
He woulda answered it too lmao
Nick young is my favorite basketball player and it has nothing to do with his basketball skills
It is good to see everyone having a smile and laugh about the good ole days. Gil and Nick is hilarious 😂
I LOVE seeing my Illinois boys looking healthy& happy Many blessings to Them all !
To quote Jeff Van Gundy, the P in swaggy P, "don't stand for passing"
To quote Shaq, that P stand for premature.
When Darius miles came out he was a beast
Factz! His hops and length was insane!!!
@@macdabluepanther and speed
THE #1 🏀 PODCAST OUT! THANX FOR GETTING ME THROUGH MY QUARANTINE
Darryl Smith all the smoke
Joe Rogan
@@slimmylombo4771 he said basketball podcast dummy. Rogan aint basketball
Y'all forgetting to mention Demar Derozan is from LA too. My guy a dog and got skills!
They mentioned it briefly... when they were talking about the dudes that came out of USC
The very first year he gets traded they win a ring. Raptors. Lol. Then derozan makin popovich look bad in san antonio
Nick young high asl 😂
@Mario Galle 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Da Blackest One! Gets me every time dawg.
Then he points straight in his face like we can't see him
Darius is obviously not offended by it. I don't like the way he says it. Black is beautiful.
@@charlesgreen7765 Who the fuck is talking down about him being black? All these niggas are black, he just said da blackest one. Why we talkin about race like that.
@@fredx239 Thank you for your reply. I say 'thank you' because I'm big on not getting emotional just because somebody expresses their opinion. Ultimately, my opinion doesn't matter. Nevertheless, I don't like the expression. Darius is cool with it, so it is what it is. My life experiences and studies are why I don't like it. I love the podcast nonetheless.
@@charlesgreen7765 Fair, I do apologize for coming off as emotional, but I meant it in casual way. I just don't understand why it has to sound offensive when he just teasing him for being the darkest dude in the room.
Just looking over Swaggy P's stats. Dude actually had some very solid pcts. close to 40% from 3 and well over 80% at the stripe every year yo, that's tough!!! Didn't expect that.
He was a walking bucket he just never actually tried to do anything else except with gs
He always been getting buckets. How didn’t you know?
How you think he played 13 years?????? It’s sad you had to go look at the stats and give your opinion like it actually means something. Dummy
@@rjdriver88 why the person gotta be dumb, because he didn't go to River Valley University?
BrianSmith1993 hahahaha. Haha haha. I just don’t understand how someone can play 13 years in the NBA. Be drafted in the top 20 and someone say, “ oh I looked at his stats, he was pretty good.” No shit, Sherlock. Who woulda thought????
Swaggy had the talent but he didn’t have that mentality to be great. Dude played like he was just happy to be in the league .
jj thomas him and JR Smith are the two early 2000’s wings that had ridiculous talent but no work ethic to speak of, underachievers to the highest degree.
@@manimal9871 I think Jr had a lil more work ethic and caring more than swaggy p my man
jj thomas yeah he could of been a killer but still a soild career stayed above 13 points most his year but could of been a elite scorer
Word. Clippers should’ve kept him but I could see doc annoyed with his lack of work ethic
@manimal both champs..🧐
Love this one! Keep them coming.
That dude swaggy so laid back lol
I enjoyed this alot more than i thought i would
I swear everytime I watch these guys I'm always amazed how great of a job they do with the questions.
This is one of the best podcast around. Good shit fellas!
Bruh... I cannot get enough of this shit lol. I look forward to this weekly man! Q & D keep the shit going mane!!!
Gotta be the best one yet🐐
The Blackest One says: Kobe is the Dexter of the NBA.
Dexter says: I'm the Kobe of serial killers.
☻🏀🔪😈🤫
Been waiting for this thank you
This interview tells us a lot about Nick Young’s career.... Young didn’t want to compete/work for nothing....
The is could’ve been a super star...
Yall just made my day ❤🔥🔥
I was dying with Laughter when Swaggy P asked the boys about if they had to deal with tmz 😂😂 this was amazing content
One of the most positive players, respect
This guy had the talent to be an allstar.
For sure but idk why it never happend
Like he said, he was just happy to play the game. He didn’t have that demeanor to dominate.
I love the fact we letting hoopers interview hoopers, I’m tired of these numbers guys running the media.. players taking over
Right!!! Corporate interviews suck, I love these podcast
Swaggy P has game if he had the killer instinct he’d be a Superstar.
I agree bro. Followed his whole career. Pure scorer!
💯
Word, if he cared more he would be a star, he had all the skills to be a star.
Idk about a superstar. He wasn’t that athletic
@@waynebrown7733 He could still played after that warriors championship, but nobody gave him another shot
My dudes are killin' me..😂😂😂😂
Great interview again fellas!!
Swags jaw has to hurt smiling so damn much
LMAO AHH MAN THAT KOBE STORY HAD ME ROLLING. THATS KOBE FOR Y'ALL 🤷🏽♂️
Swaggy P has to be the epitome opposite of Kobe Bryant.
We need D Miles to pull up with “The Blackest One” T-shirt’s 👕 and hoodies! That joint would go! 👀👍🏾💪🏾 Love how they celebrate 🎉 their cultures and cities.
D.Miles: Being down the road from Hamilton, what made you wanna go there?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
