PJ GOING TO THE FINALS AS A KEY PIECE OF THE MAVS! CONGRATS POP
This interview aged well
For real, go Mavs
That’s a proud pops right there. We’re glad to have PJ on the Mavs!
PJ Washington is the new Robert Horry
Always loved PJ when he played at Kentucky. Just a mentally tough, solid ball player. A key piece for any quality team. Glad that he escaped Charlotte and is getting the spotlight he deserves now. Rooting for the Mavs in the finals.
seems like a very good dad to have
"Its kinda scary" They really were pops, this aged like fine wine.
He plays great and the fans love him.
Mavs are a much improved team with these 2 new players.I would not be surprised to see a final appearance. These are 2 of the best moves they have ever made. Sounds like a great dad
Great foresight sir
Wow! You predicted it
This definitely aged well!!!
What’s are next lottery numbers bro?
Bring that chip home for your hometown, P.J! Let's goooo
Watching this after the playoff victory against OKC. dad, you are going to be soooooo proud!
Dads knowledge and love for the game is crazy and unmatched
Thank the Lord for Nico's vision and being able to make these deals go through.
Need a follow up interview with him before the finals
Love this! Welcome home PJ
Absolutely love the addition of PJ to the team & dads high praise of Luka was great to hear! You can tell this is where they both wanted to be - great interview
Great dad! HOMEGROWN DESTINY!! Love this aspect of how PJ feels and his family. Praying he stays healthy and we go take this Championship 🙏. I love this team better than our 2022 run.
I’m happy for him and his family.
Mavs fan. PJ is such a needed addition to our team (defence, shooting, athleticism). The Mavs (33-23) have won 4 games straight since he joined the team. Long term, he is joining a historically successful club, playing with All-NBA players (Luka, Kyrie), and the Mavs are expected is go far in the playoffs every single season.
Great interview, Dad.
PJ is the X factor to win the Finals
#MFFL #LETSGOMAVS We are extremely grateful to have PJ and Daniel Gafford
And Derek Lively
@@kimking5928 most definitely, I love that kid like he’s my little big brother… I’m older but he’s way taller 🤣
Love having PJ on our team! #MFFL
I'm still blown away by the MANIACS! Go PJ and Go Mavs! LFG!!
PJ+Luka=Magic❤
Shoutout to Nico for making all of this happen. Idk if I can remember a mavs team being this exciting to watch
Heard an interview with PJ now hearing pops I can see where he gets his smarts from. Great interview Dad, glad to have PJ on the team wish charlotte would have let the Mavs sign him in the offseason or s&t.
Great Dad love both of them
My neighborhood fried told me last night he used to play against PJ in middle school and i thought he was joking bc i didn’t realize he was from Frisco. My buddy told me he was drinking on them even in middle school😂😂
So awesome! I hope it works out perfectly and this core sticks together for the long haul! I hope this becomes a dynasty!
championships
Hope he stays here! Finals bound 💪
Kidd actually ran plays for both when they entered the game that’s major that’s trust from the coach and that’s a statement saying we are getting these guys involved in the game 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
PJ will not fail this team.
Welcome to Dallas pj
Glad he's here .
That’s so cool!
Super awesome story
PJ makes the Mavs incredibly tough in the paint or out in space and whether it offense or defense.
Man... A lot of guys on the Mavs have great and motivating stories behind them coming to play for the Mavs and having a real drive. Exum's vendetta return to the NBA, Kyrie getting into his media-free peace zone after a long time, PJ literally coming home, Gaff finally moving on a winning team, Derrick playing like he wants and finally getting on the team he's been aiming for years, D Live being molded into Tyson Chandler 2.0 after his mom beat cancer... Would probably make a great doc film if they get that ring 😂
Awesome. Dope interview!
Thanks for watching!
Paul had GAME back in the day. I'm happy for him and his family.
The nice thing about PJ is he puts the ball on the floor as well. He's not just a catch and shoot player out there. In a way, he's a tougher Dorian Finney-Smith. He just needs to improve his shooting a little more. But yeah, he drives a ball a lot which is really nice.
We all love PJ
A perfect dad's interview compare to Hardaway's dads'.
his dad seems really cool
So good to hear. Hopefully he makes a few shots today
People are much more comfortable and happy in their own city surrounded by their loved ones, who knew?
Let's go Mavs!!!
Durant was in Pjail yesterday. Great defender and overall talent.
PJ about to put KD in jail tonight
And now they are in the Finals
Very nice interview 👋👋
And what a ride it been.
He is perfect for the team, he is just like Dodo but better, stronger and more talented on offense, but with the same scrappyness and switchability on defense.
sounds very intelligent and dedicated father,it is obvious raised a good child
I wish I had a dad
PJ is legit piece of the mavericks
He looks like a player that has alot of raw talent. The mavs seem to develop young players pretty well. PJ can be another Shawn Marion or maybe a little better. It's all up to PJ. Josh Green is growing before our eyes and Brunson is an all star now. So if PJ is willing to put in the right work his potential can be realized
Hardy is starting to sprout too!
The Mavs vibes right now are nice. Let's go MFFL
That's a Father guy's🙌
now they in the finals
Watching this after Mavs take 3-0 lead
happy for pops and PJ, perfect position for him to grow with the mavs as their lacking size and location with pops there!
Looks just like his dad
this dude knows ball
PJ should’ve really steered away from 403s. He would’ve had less headaches
😂acting like you've never smashed a easy one lol Only difference is he has money
@@manegrindshardfacts💀
glad for him cuz career was going nowhere in Charlotte same with Gafford (Wizards)
PJ Washington Sr????
Your title title is off...
lol PJ Jr’s dad instead of saying Sr is hilarious 😂
P.J. washington is contributing almost 0 on offense, so say his defense has changed your team to make yourself feel better. That trade is more of a steel with every game. Pleasure doing business with you, my guy. Trade a better, more consistent P.J. Washington (Grant Williams) and a top 2 protected 2027 pick for P.J. yall are lucky, Gafford is balling out "so hard" kinda. This trade deadline would've been cheeks for yall if not. I understand Grant wasn't playing as well for yall, but I think it's because of the vibe of stars like Kyrie and others(also the reason for Washington's offensive decline imo). Grant Williams is back home and playing better than ever. You all can cope with the trade all you want. Just use the DG trade win to soften the blow.I hope 2027 is a bad year for yall, and we get the 3rd pick. That is now a possibility, haha.Ggs and Goodluck. I do wish the best for P.J. once a hornet, always a hornet.
Comment aged well 😂
@@TheMaestro7777777 its so weird how hornets fan treat pj, they bash him to make themselves feel better i guess?
Much love man, we're copin' pretty will with it at the moment.
You still have time to delete this
@@reverse_swed3n😂😂
