As a Nuggets fan I loved how Thomas Bryant kept the vibes up even tho he didn’t get any playing time.
I love how in this interview he explained how the nuggets welcomed him with open arms
That nuggets team was special
Congratulations 🎉🎈🍾
I agree. Throughout the run I was watching every single video that came out just looking for especially Bryant and Reggie Jackson to see how they were responding since they were the guys that came in late. I don't think it's necessarily in Reggie's DNA to be a rah rah guy but it seemed like Thomas Bryant was really getting his voice out there which is so valuable to a team trying to make a championship run
@@joshackley2496 he played a bad game and coach Malone called him out which made it hard to get more minutes late in the season but minutes were hard to come by as players fought for playoff spots. the Nuggets could've used him better but didn't sulk and got a ring 🏆
Seasons has started, can't wait for Outta Pocket to be back!
Awesome interview guys and massive respect to Thomas as he doesn't get the credit for his contribution to the Nuggets historic win!
what was his contribution?
@@ouchh35keeping em seats warm , 🎉
@@ouchh35 he didn't play as much as he wanted but that was expected with Jokic dominating and the Nuggets not playing to his strengths. all in all he should get minutes with Miami so good luck to him 👍
He put that work in at Rico Hines every summer. Dude definitely deserves it. Glad he’s with my Heat now too
I miss this podcast where yall at
I miss ya'll so much
Who’s here after he signed with Miami?
Lakers NEEDED him. I can’t believe they let him go. When AD was hurt, this guy was balling and can spread the floor. A shame, they could’ve started TB & AD against Jokic that series
Great interview guys.
Is outta pocket going to summer league?
Come on guys. Jokic is from Serbia. Have you ever lived outside the US? He wanted to get back to his country, home and horses. You do know he has to go to Manila for the FIBA World Cup for most of August and September? He only has a 6 week off season.
yeah it's no different than American born players playing overseas and wanting to go back to the States immediately after the season is over. i don't understand why it's a big deal
Americans don't get it
Sad he didn't get to play more... He could be a good back up C, just needed more time to adapt.
Salty laker fan here.... Mannnn that man didn't ev....nevermind congratulations Champ
Laker fan here, ill finish it for you. He didn't even play basically from when he landed in Denver. I like Thomas, but bro jumped the gun and would've gotten paid.
@@heresmypersonalopinion it was smart to go away from the Lakers at that time, LeBron eats his teammates since forever, he gets all the glory in victory, and his teammates get all the sh.t in defeat.
Nike and ESPN are basically his PR team since Day 1, and the consumers are eating that bullsh.
@Woody13woodpecker look at the bigger picture. lakers were one thomas bryant away from a championship.
The truth isn't allowed, even YT is deleting my comments, but hopefully you got them Mr. reallakersnews!
He gave his contribution off the court, he had positive impact in the locker room. It's obvious that he is very pleasant person and good teammate. Sometimes that is more important than some minutes on the court.
“We nice” 😂
Rochester legend NOLIMITTB ❤️
He didn’t play for the Nuggets either 😂😂😂 but at least he still got an A on the group project 🤣

Thomas Bryant is always gonna be Nuggets Legends. Everyone who was part of the roster is a Nuggets Legend minus Bones. Screw him.

They got traded out, but they are part of the process. They deserves their part of it.
Every single person who was part of this project is a worth deserving champion. We were a family and everyone put a little rock to built the path into the bringing Denver our 1st championship.
I was superexcited when Thomas moved to Nuggets because he played really well in Lakers. As Nuggets supporter I would like him to stay in Denver and improve. I am sure he can be much better.
He got 0min but hes more useful in practice. So he deserves that championship
Bro, he knows just as much about winning a championship as everyone watching
He knows more than we do ...
The Nuggets defeated them in minimum games required 😂😂😂
True Lakers fan!
Yes 😂😂😂
It kinda sounds better than Lakers got swept in Conference Finals 😂
“But it was close.” Sorry, but it’s the truth: Nuggets had to be good enough to beat Lakers and NBA, Laker favoring refs
homie won a chip and y'all asked him about the lakers 80% of the pod. Can you just name this show Lakers central or something? its not a hoops show lmfao. Every single conversation is through the lens of your fandom. Should be advertised that way.
You’re not wrong 😂
I wasn’t a huge Westbrook fan until I saw his honor after Lakers fans turned on him.
Lakers gotta get TB back! He's obviously a need
Yea Thomas bryant hold it down 4 upstate ny Rochester ny
I'm just gonna say it. As a person who was rooting for the Lakers I was very upset when they traded TB and even more upset that we never got the chance to see TB and AD on the court at the same time. I was genuinely and thoroughly disappointed that we never even got the opportunity to see it. He seemed like the prefect player to play alongside AD if we wanted to go big and we didn't once get to see it happen. With that said congrats to him and to Denver and good luck in Miami.
He's not a great defender. But on offense he can space the floor so that would be a plus. Though I still think his lack of defense would have caused them not to play much together.
Man requested a trade and got no pt, just a ring he didn’t play for 😂
Guys have different roles in that team. TB was useful maybe on practice Hes part on that team and surely he deserves it
This guy got lucky with him getting traded to the nuggets and getting a ring now if he didn't get traded to the Denver nuggets and stayed with the Lakers he wouldn't have shot so I hope the Miami heat don't go anywhere with this guy
Hating at its finest! I hope he excels with the Heat
Bro hating on someone that doesn’t know him Lmaoo
Free country I could hate on who ever the fuck I won't to hate on and the heat aint doing shit with him one guy don't make a difference
Why would he trash talk with his buddies in the lakers when he didnt even play!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wtf is going on, are people really this delusional this was a dumb interview, he literally did nothing he was dmp the whole time. He was traded mid way. The Water and towel boy did more than he did. What is he celebrating.
welcome to miami
