Ewing has no power, he got stopped by MSG security while coaching Georgetown
Big fact..they also did Spike Lee dirty !
Amen.
@@a7nightvision so everyone is expected to know who spike Lee is. Correct?
@@bettytunabreath9317 in New York at a knicks game yes. It’s like Jack Nickelson at a Lakers game.
This
The night after Oak was thrown out of the Garden, he had dinner at Smith and Wollensky. People were lined up to shake his hand.
Love Oak. Can’t stand Dolan. I bet 10 out of 10 New Yorkers got Oakley’s back.
not after you hear from people who were near it
@@michaelfrazia4569 so what do they say?
Actually oak was wrong. But people hate Dolan and so it doesn't matter. The truth doesn't matter when the LIE is more entertaining.
@@lemonpepper853 What's the truth?
@@LawTheStryker According to actually security that was there, he was acting erratic and entitled. Then proceeded to heckle the Owner because he felt he wasn't getting enough love. Which is strange because he literally said he wanted to beat up the owner for being so horrible with the team prior to that event. Not quite sure what he expected.
Mr. Oakley was perhaps one of the more underappreciated NBA stars. People think of brute force, and there was that. But Charles was also a highly intelligent ball player who did clutch things in his prime.
Yes, went to college with him. Very smart man!
The type of player that does all the little things that most players don't want to do, like diving for lose balls to get extra possessions
I wouldn’t go as far as to call him a star, but he was an all-time valuable role player.
Lol he was wack.
He got paid very well. He got paid for his moneys worth. No one used him
I remember Charles told this story in full length he said after he got out Jordan sent the PJ for him to fly him down to NC they played golf the next day and Jordan told him don't worry about it I'll take care of it. Now that's a friend
Well, let's see. I met Oak in Chicago. But that was around the time, Jordan was dating the Latina. I believe they were sharing her, before MJ married her.
@@cobrakainevereverdies6940 I am sure they all swing etc
@@tommyboy0208 - As long as they're not like PussBron, A D, D Wade and Russ = *WE know they're scared of coo coo*
MJ n Oak been tight since his Chicago Stadium days. That’s Mikes boy.
Dolan could possibly be the worst sports owner in all of history
Dan Snyder would like a word 😆
@@vinceniederman wrong Dan
That would be Donald Sterling respectively
@@a7nightvision without a doubt. He was absolutely horrible.
The Fords would like to speak to you about that
Charles Oakley is one of the toughest New York Knicks ever. Hope to read his book one day.
@Dan Jackson Is because I mentioned the word ever.
I love Oakley. We need more straight shooters nowadays.
And Ewing had the same thing happen to him. Smh.
I watched Oakley as a Knick. I'm pissed just hearing this.
Dolan is the worst owner in all of sports. The NBA should have forced him to sell a long, long time ago.
Dolan isn't going anywhere because the value of the Knicks has tripled since he became the owner. The point of owning a team is to increase the team's market value, not be friendly with the fans or former players.
Dolan is low class trash. They’ll never be a consistent winner with him around. Players don’t want to play for him.
@@LadyJay114 all nba franchises have. that has nothing to do with dolan. in fact, theyd be worth more if he was competent and the team won once and awhile.
Nobody is worst than Dan Snyder Washington Commanders
The Fords have Dolan beat
Oakley been dissing Ewing since he retired.
Why would he expect Ewing to support him?
He could of supported him verbally,it takes a real human to stand up for what is wrong, especially in this world today,Dolan is a real POS"!!!.
Most people in the chat are Oakley stans
I'm 47. I remember Byron Allen late night comedy shows when I was in my teens. I'm proud of him. He bought the Weather Channel (one of my favorite channels) and I'm super proud of him because he stayed around and stayed positive. Definitely inspirational
What i don`t like about Oak here: why does he speak bad in public about Pat? Did he talk with him in private yet? Things like that you don`t bring up in public. They have been teamates for 10 years. He should talk with him about his behavior face to face.
trying to sell a book. sold his soul
One of the greatest Knicks of all time. Tough as nails. A real power forward.
@Say what Nope Yeah, ask the players who when up against Oakley. And yes, he was a MF'er. READ WHAT I SAID DUDE. He was one of the greatest Knicks. I never compared him to Barkley or Rodman.
@Say what Nope All of it if you don't understand Oakley's value to a team. Ever hear of Rick Mahorn? Probably not. Same type of player. The Pistons were never the same after they traded him.
I was a lifetime Knicks fan, haven't watched a game in 20 years. I saw the Oakley incident and was sick...Charles, you could have knocked everyone of them out and would have had my blessing. Dolan and his goon squad were wrong and they should have been sued and had to pay a large sum for what happened.
AMEN
So you don't think some of security is trained in fighting?
Don't assume anything. Just saying. Oakley got my respect how he handled it then and after.
@@leftyhooks5854 Having worked in the industry over 30 years in high profile security and law enforcement, I can CONFIDENTLY SAY Oakley would have done some serious damage. And if you have seen the video, the first instigator was scared to death and looking for backup immediately. I don't assess a situation without entertaining all variables, their security never had a chance if Oak decided he wasn't going along with the situation. Perhaps you should take your own advice and keep from assuming. Enjoy your day...
@@RedHorseAdventures maybe stop acting like Charles Oakley is fucking Bruce lee then….
Honestly Charles Oakley John Starks dead jersey numbers should be retired just for what they did day in and day out and the fact they lost to Jordan Bulls there's no shame besides those battles with did Chicago Bulls was the best that I can recall if the great Michael Jordan could put it in his biography how the Knicks made his legacy then Dolan should retire John Stockton's Oakley's uniform numbers
I absolutely despise James Dolan as an owner . His father should have sold the team outright to someone who had the means to take the franchise to the next level! Damn, Cable Vision wasn’t enough I guess to pass along to little Jimmy!
Truly, one of the last, real, tough guys in the NBA.
Tuff guy. 🥱
@@bettytunabreath9317 LOL like anyone fears you
Dolan is the type of guy who had his lunch and lunch money taken from him all of his life.
No he's just racist 🙏🏾
His ENTIRE life……oh, and he’s racist AF!!!!
They treated Patrick wrong in the Garden.
So what ???? When you don't win championships YOU ARE A NOBODY.
I was never a Knicks fan -
I've always been a fan of Oak
Guy never won anything.
Oak selling a book with the Scottie Pippen approach
A legend. Charles Oakley is a staple in NY. I'm surprised the Knicks still standing
He's not a legend stop it.
@@nazgul12000 smells like a hater in the room. Salute to the legend Oakley
@@alfordelliott6943 legend yet not top 75….
@@alfordelliott6943 Everytime somebody don't agree with somebody he's a hater . Maybe your just nut hugging Oakley.
How many big important playoff games did he and Ewing win???? Both are fake bullshit legends who never won anything. Is the guy selling peanuts at the game also a legend ????
This guy is deluded. He has been bashing Ewing for years unprovoked and now wants Patrick to defend him? Completely out of touch with reality
I was thinking the same thing. Delusional for real!
🤣
Especially when you think of Champions, Charles was a major reason why Ewing didn't. Steph has Klay. Jordan and Pippen. Duncan and Robinson. Ewing had the wrong Charles.
U do realize the knicks didn’t let Ewing in the arena recently and acted like they didn’t know him
@@alfredjackson7058 I agree
What they did to Oak was disgraceful left the Knicks will NEVER EVER EVER EVER GO BACK!
Bye lol. No knick fan cares
@@rthompson9652 good to know! THANK YOU!
@@roberttaylor6694 you're very welcome
If I owned a business and an ex-employee walked in and started yelling and cursing at me, I'd have my staff remove him also. And if necessary I'd call the cops to do it. Dolan is the worst owner in the NBA. But that doesn't exonerate Oakley. This incident has two sides to it, not one side - which is all Rich Eisen presents. This is poor journalism.
I agree we only know Oak side. But Dolan has a track record of this. But just because you got a track record doesn’t mean every incident is your fault.
I always loved the Knicks and Lakers. I remember watching Bernard King play his heart out. When my Lakers were trying to find their way again I also rooted for the Knicks. This organization is shameful now.
After being a lifelong Knicks fan, I haven't paid attention to the franchise for more than 10 years... until Dipstick Dolan leaves, I'm done...
Same here Jeff
I Hear you
Amen! Right there with you!
Then gtfoh and don't come back. The knicks fanbase will always remain strong. Go root for the nets
I luv Oakley and because of that situation I’m not a Knicks fan no more
I always laugh at ppl posting this. Like seriously who cares. Just go root for the nets quietly
I like the way he keeps it real and don't sugar cost his point of view
They stopped Ewing checking for passes in the garden at the big east tourney not too long ago. Let it go Oak
Thank you.
Let go of what? He’s banned, shouldn’t Dolan let go?
@@hiphopesq nah. Dolan owns the building. He can ban anyone he wants
Yall don't understand and it's clear.
@@melanatedgod5337 lemme guess. Its racism. Lmao
As a Piston fan I always respected Oakley. When I think of NY Knicks Oakley and Ewing come to mind. I hate to hear they are beefing.
Two nobodies who never won jack......
Dolan is a POFS!
Knicks 1990's teams, those were the days
They would have won a couple of NBA titles if it wasn't for Jordan. The two times he retired in the 90s, the Knicks made the finals in 94 and 99. But ran into prime Hakeem in 94, and the twin towers of Robinson and Duncan in 99.
Yeah always losing.
@@bettytunabreath9317 Well that's a shitty way of looking at it. True they didn't win the title but they had an identity, a culture, fantastic rivalries, made it to at least the 2nd round most years and the finals twice, and had teams that fans could root for with pride. I look back at those days with fondness, while I look at the last 20 years with nausea.
@@sparksdrinker5650 true sports fans appreciate the effort and loyalty. I was a Bulls fan, but always respected teams like the Knicks and Pacers because win or lose, it was going to be a battle. Those were teams you could be proud of.
Still remember that John Starks dunk nobody saw it coming I talked trash for a week!
Last 60secs = Patrick Ewing questions ✊
Charles Oakley keep his hair SHARP. FLAWLESS! A Man's Man
charles okaley looking like moses in that thumbnail😂
Total disrespect. Oakley and all former players deserve better. He gave his blood sweat and tears for that organization and he has to buy a ticket? They should be rolling out the red carpet for him. That owner has thin skin and a weak mind.
James Dopman is just another jealous, pathetic, entitled , suspected white supremacist.
good to hear his perspective
The Knicks will never win anything with Dolan in Charge !!!!
It's about money and he's winning.
He is ruining the most marketable team in sports. Knicks are a joke around the L.
Much respect to Oakley!!!! Hopefully he’s highly successful in his new career
He owes Oakley a apology. Oakley is a legend
Great interview. As far as his beef with Ewing? Sometimes you see two brothers, and you just gotta let them fight. I still respect them both.
We need documentary or mini series or somethin about this incident lol
I love oaks look! He look badass!
Yup, looks like someone you don't want to mess with even at his age.
Ok Oakley is upset with Ewing for not speaking up 🤦♂️… Charles do you remember Ewing got shake down in the same arena his team was playing in the same one you got kicked out of make it make sense Charles
Oak look like he just came from the set of color purple lol
Oakley is to Jordan as what A.C was to O.J🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Oakley is a businessman in Westchester County. He has car washes and is supplying jobs to the economy. Bravo!
Wow! They did this to this guy! Unbelievable.
Oak and John Starks were the heart and soul of those great Knicks teams that couldn't get past MJ. Everyone in NY knew that the Dolans were POS. Shame that Ewing doesn't stick up for his teammate.
Why should Ewing stick up for a guy who constantly says he doesn’t like him.
BS - Oakley didn't stick up for Patrick back in the day. Ewing was treated like garbage by everyone. He has never gotten his due. That is why he often appeared surly in some interviews. The man came from literally nothing, was a sure-fire HOF immediately and was never treated as such. Oakley is trash.
@@jbjacobs9514 Why don't Oak go to his boss Jordan?
Patrick Ewing and John Starks
@@Bigreid92 lmao so would you have the same opinion if it was mike hand cuffed in Chicago 😭you sound kinda out of touch yourself cuz Ewing just had the a similar issue at the garden when security claim they didn’t know who he was and was asking for his pass 😂
Oakley says he doesn’t know why Dolan had him removed? Says it was a hit job, but no idea why? I don’t buy that. He must know something.
If he did, I'm sure it would have come out by now
Charles would be nobody without Ewing. Only reason we talking Charles is because of the career Ewing had carrying him. Its not like Charles scored 20 and made allstars
If Charles had stayed in Chicago, he would be a champion.
@@hiphopesq But reality it wasn't his choice. They got rid of him for Horace Grant who ended up with 4 rings including one without Jordan. But If he did stay, instead of Ewing he would had needed Jordan to carry him and we would be listening about how Jordan didn't back him up against Jerry Reinsdorf. But our luck we had that one dimensional player in Oakley who superhero skills was throwing elbows.
@@hiphopesq 😂😂😂🧢🧢🧢🧢
Sometimes people don't see when they are wrong & continue to blame others for their actions!
How was he wrong
You got to be referring to Dolan!!
@@donnelladams8362 As much as that man has contributed to the Knicks,as another human being,in my eyes,Dolan is a real knob" for treating Oakley like that.
What was #33 supposed to say to quell the situation??
There are many owners in pro sports who need to go. Leagues should have mandatory auction procedures for bad owners. The Knicks, Texans, Lions and others need ownership changes.
Oak, all love 🌃
How are you going to get kicked out of game for no reason? even as a fan and they do this to a Knicks legend. This is insane!
I guess Patrick doesn’t want to be your friend 😂😂😂😂
Give Oakley a podcast lol.
That’s so sad....For the countless times Oakley had Ewing’s back its sad to think the most important time Oakley needed Ewing ... he didn’t have Oakley‘s back... Knick’s suck since Dolan took over....
🤦♂️ you know Ewing also got shake down in the same arena when Georgetown played in the tournament… What could Ewing say Oakley also didn’t defend him
They should honor the oak dog at the garden forever with Oak Tree Popcorn and soda combo lol
Oakley looks like he can still play in the league in the starting lineup
Same way I felt when that happened
I Don't Blame Rich For Stop Being a Knicks Fan!
Oak is the bully that complains after he get hit back
At a time when we're about to collectively tell the NFL to fix their ownership issues, we still have this huge albatross as owner of one of the most prolific teams in the country. Knicks need new ownership, and preferably BIPOC ownership!
It’s a shame this has been the highlight of his post playing days. Why is this even still being talked about.
Oak is right, MSG security rough people up in there!!
Maybe Charles Oakley should try paying for his own tickets and acting like a normal person for a change. The Knicks don't owe this guy anything
Thanks for the information. I skipped the video . 🤫
True,,,but cmon!!! If you go to any golds gym,, any former Mr universe get free pass to enter. True, he doesn't have the right to get in free,,,,,but thus is bad PR for Knicks.
*Charles Oakley*
*Spike Lee*
*Patrick Ewing*
I stopped being a *Knicks* fan rightfully so. Why does the *NBA* allow this goofball to continue to be an owner, is beyond belief...🤔
I wish I watched this now. Seems like Oak cares that prick doesn't like him. Just goes to show no matter how tough you are most have a good ❤. With a franchise like the Knicks to tolerate Dolan is crazy. I would have to think they could do something.
“Fly and the sander stone. “.
Why does Ewing have to back you? I thought you were the toughest dude in the NBA for over a decade? Now you need your Ex-Mate to stick up for you with James Dolan.
Facts!!!!!
Why don't he go to his boss Jordan or smack Dolan. But we all know why he wont. He ain't that "crazy".
...asks the man with no "Mates"
Its a bro code
James Dolan is the personification of incompetence!
No, everybody did NOT come to Oakley's side.
MAAAAN!!NAW MAN ....I THOUGHT THAT Was FREDERICK DOUGLAS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oakley shoved a security guard hard a couple times right behind the bench. Dolan is a Dbag but Charles is full of it.
Is it me or does Charles Oakley look like Keith David the actor 🤷♂️
Damn Oak is old school uncle real...you can tell Ewing's silence hurt
Why would Patrick need to intercede? Oak is an Ex-Knick and should have his own relationships with the Franchise. Not Ewings problem. When Phil Jackson walked up to find out what the deal was he was trying to help you..but it's Patrick's fault? LOL
😂 I love Oak
Ewing is smart enough to not talk about Dolan publicly....because he's is NBA coaching.....
Tell us you know nothing about Patrick Ewing without telling us
A man named Oak. Thaz fugged up. He is basketball royalty. No wonder the Knick franchise has fallen so low.
Hell Yea Oak . Big dog. King of the boards . # Legend
Love Charles Oakley
really unfortunate this happened, let this be a lesson to us all Owner versus Employee smh sucks.
Man I wish people would stop praising Charles Oakley likes he's some great HOFer. This man doesn't run ish. He has a right to kick him out.
that you dolan? lmfao trollface
@@mattcoffee1269 naw I'm black, but why give so much attention to an retired old bully?
@@mattcoffee1269 one thing about a bully is that they're still a bully when they get older. Look at him now trying to stay relevant at his age.
@@mattcoffee1269 actually my name's Melvin. Go and ask Evette, Jody.
@@leestreet1627 not everyone is a nice person. doesnt take awy from his career. you say he's nothing to be praised, EVERY team wishes that had an Oakley! my sonics did for a spell, his name was the xman..you needed tough guys, cause it was such a physical game then. its a touch foul pussified scoring fest now. different game. different times....no one said hes a role model lmao. but hes a part of nba history. not many like him.
So glad Dolan out of Cali ‘s Forum. We were required to “know who he was” working there. He would make his bad a 1st act at various concerts and guests would complain about the delay. He didn’t care.
I use to be a knick fan as well. That night changed that
Lmao at hi "Big Head" like this is the Kevin Samuels show
Bruh, doing this to Oakley of all people, the literal heart and soul of the early 90s Knicks teams, is baffling. Legally I don't even know how he's able to get away with this.
Did he not ge paid great for playing a damn sport which is nothing more than just entertainment?! Hell what business will let you just come back and do as you want?!
@@andrejohnson1703 "do as you want" - do you mean sit down? Literally all of them allow you to do that. Genius comment
Oakley should've called his man crush Michael Jordan🤣
You can tell by the way Oak is telling the story that he’s leaving out a lot of important details. I loved Oak as a player, but he’s leading me to believe he did something that would warrant him being told to leave the building.
To be honest, this is the difference between Rich and DP. DP would have asked the questions like "were you drunk", "at any point, did you swing or use any force" etc even though everybody knows the answer. I love Oak but if you don't ask those obvious questions to completely clear the air and set the record & story straight, it looks like such a biased interview (even though it is not because that's not Rich's style. A bit disappointed by my man
I know why Dolan can't stand Oakley because Oakley miss to many easy lay ups too many times under the basket!!!!
So did Charles smith.
Oakley was always straight up and didn't take no mess. I think he should've sued, because that guy tried to destroy his reputation. Treat everyone like you want to be treated.
That's fu&%k up
I find it funny he mentioned the Pacers since all of his rivals from that Indiana team immediately came to Charles’s defense.
The Pacers fan section chanted “Charles Oakley” behind Dolan when he visits Indy ever since.
No former NBA player should pay for tickets.
