The perfect person for an interview, he never fails, storytelling God, & Big Boy is definitely a legend in the game. Love how he comes up with witty sarcasm on any interview
ءء
It was a classic bro big boi we 🫡 you big hommie 🔥
I love Kenny Smith he really is a good dude 💯
Yes his a rea OG
His genuineness is in his DNA.
He's good for bringing water 😂
@@theslayer2360not funny
Underrated quote that quietly was said “Champions do daily what everyone does occasionally.” 🔥 🔥 🔥
How is big boy so sharp with the jokes😂😂 “ I took a page out your book…Well imma need you to give that back”👏🏽
75 yrs & only 5,100 basketball players? We definitely need to make sure our kids get trades and or a good education . This is a path to failure otherwise
in that 75 years less than 5k rappers/singers have been a success..I agree with you
This lets you know that even very good isn't good enough. Players that fans call sorry are still so much better than almost everyone in the real world.
@@rdogletree4543with scouts on every corner of the earth, everyone that can be in the NBA is in the NBA.
@@rdogletree4543massively agreed.. the ‘levels to this ish’ comment you hear optimises the point.
@@linh811 Well I don't totally agree with that. I can name at least 5-10 guys from the streets that could've made it if they had their heads on right. I have a cousin that was a beast but a knucklehead. 6'5 215 baller, ball handler, shooter, could play in the post but wanted to sell dope. He spent 20 years of his life in and out of prison from 1993-2013. I'm pretty you know at least one person that threw their life away when they had all of the ability to play a sport at the highest level. Growing up in the hood I saw this all the time. I have another cousin that was stupid smart but chose to sell drugs over going to college or military. He took the ASVAB Test for the Air Force, missed one question on the entire test but chose the streets over his education.
Great interview! Kenny Smith is the man. Inside The NBA with Kenny, Shaq, Charles and Ernie always cheers me up.
Great interview. Kenny Smith is a great storyteller.
This is the best interview I have heard in a long time. Great stuff!!!
Another great interview I was entertained the whole time My man Kenny Smith was inspirational and I'm definitely going to get his book not necessarily for me but for my boys
Jet such a stand up dude. Always talks with truth. Def someone I would love to have an older OG mentor just to talk life with
Loved the Kenny wisdom. I'm gonna have to cop the book.
Solid interview! The Jet was one of the nicest pg in NBA history
Nicest how? Like friendly or one of the best? No hate to him but he’s not one of the bests
Even last place is included when you say one of
mass underrated
Kenny(TheJet) seems2always have been very thoughtful& knowledgeable. He's been around. He listens&learns. Loved him as a young man@ UNC❤
Love Kenny Energy! Feel Like I've Known Em Forever Haha
Thanks for sharing this conversation with Kenny 'The Jet' Smith. He has put the hard work in and it's paying off, appreciate his transparency, kudos.
Wow!! Kenny!!! I remembered you from college,from Houston the NBA you are one of the Greats! I'll have to find your Book. This was a great interveiw!!!
I am so appreciative of watching this podcast. I learned and laughed, and I received wisdom. I thank you, Big Boy, for having this conversation with Kenny, and if you choose to, please let Kenny know, and I will buy the book and look forward to having it signed one day. Stay Fantabulous.
An amazing interview. Kenny Smith after all said and done, if I’m an NBA Owner, I would find a role for Kenny as a future GM. He’s has all the leadership intangibles and charisma.
Great conversation! Def gonna grab his book!
It’s always funny hearin Big Boy talk like he’s Broke or unsuccessful 😂😂 madd humble, this Dudes a Legend🐐
This was an AWESOME interview!!!
Shaq was an economics major at LSU!! He had marketing schemes in place way before became a pro!
Love this interview BigBoy and Love you Kenny "The Jet" Smith!!
I just bought the book, after listening to you guys in the interview. Great job.
Great interview 👍.
Learned a lot about Kenny, and how TNT Inside the NBA really goes down.
Big Boy. Los Angeles. Legend.
Kenny “The Jet” Smith, Queens, NYC Legend.
Grew up on Big Boy in the 90s. "The phat 5 at 9 im feeling fine"
@@straightlead8 "The Hat of Forbidden Questions" 🤣
This is a great interview!
I really enjoy watching this show. Big-Boy always brings humor into he's shows.
GREAT INTERVIEW WITH KENNY
Damn this was such a good interview
Really enjoyed this interview
I couldn’t believe the Lakers got sweep either. 😂 Big has to be one of the funniest people to have ever lived.
Nice interview. BIG is so hilarious 😂
Yea BIG a riot
This was Amazing!! I met Kenny one time, one Sunday morning in church in Santa Clarita CA, years ago!! Inspiring !!!
Ya I can tell his first champion is Christ! 👆🏼
Great person to interview about the goated show behind the scenes
Great interview!💪🏾🛩️
“The world is about baking it ain’t about microwaving.” My God, that was 🔥
I love Shaq , every time he goes buy something for himself, he blesses someone in the store with something they need . He's a good man , not many people does that .
This was fun. ❤
During his NBA career, Kenny earned a little more than $13 million in salary. He is paid a salary of $4 million per year for his work as a basketball analyst for TNT.
Yet Kenny has to work 5 years to earn what Barkley earns in 1 year if Kenny earns 4 million a year as claimed. Barkley earns around 20 million a year from TNT. Don't get me wrong it's excellent money regardless, a solid 1 million salary is excellent money but it isn't a fair deal paying Barkley 5x more than Kenny.
Great interview can’t wait to read the book
I hope you get an Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley interview 🤞🏽🤞🏽
All 3
This was the best!
Kenny! My fav PG ever. Was 14 he won our first championship. Don’t think another will over take that.
Kenny is always dropping knowledge bombs.
Best interview ever Big congratulations ✊🏿✊🏿
This is very great good one big Boi and his crew
Shaq got good advisor and he listens to them well.
Great interview
Killer interview!
Str8 legend and underrated…. I would to see him with his own podcast! Very knowledgeable
Ya keeps saying he's underrated, he was a shooting guard playing in the Michael joy in error.besides those 2 years that he was in Houston that he actually was a star player, he wasn't even the best player on the rockets, a large wanted Sam Cosell did way more than he did, I could tell you only watch basketball do CZcams clips
nice interview very relaxed , funny cheers to the host :D
This a great interview
The chosen few to play in the NBA.
Kenny the JET Smith
The NBA.........
Legend
The only thing I hate about Inside the NBA is one day it will have to end. I wish they were a cartoon like the Simpsons 😂😂😂😂
Sir Charles was my favorite player back in the nineties. Kenny is my favorite analist
1:03:21 not the Lebron record breaking story 🤣🤣🤣
Shaq: “yeah Row 66 !!”
Kenny a smart dude.He has a way with words
Love listening to him
Kenny’s role ok the rockets was just perfect for what he would become on inside the nba, we give so much credit for Shaq and sir Charles but Kenny and Ej really bring so much to the table especially for the average fan, I hope Kenny and Ej frigid out whatever difference they might have, it pains me I’ve been able to see them fueding but I couldn’t see it for sSkip and Shannon
Haven’t been following much lately, what’s going on with Kenny and EJ 😢
Beautiful!!!💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
its true, Forever 21 and Brooks Brothers is owned by Authentic Brands Group, which is owned by Shaq. Wild
Big Boy a nut! Lmao!!!🤣😂🤣😂😭the jokes!!!!!!
You 2 speaking makes for excellence. Of course your great on your own but this flow is Lox level back & forth.
Where these pages at 😂 class 👏
Man i was definitely on my way, commenting on the sweeped comment, as soon as he said it LMAO
"Sweeped" is a legit word, from the ghetto slang dictionary though 😂😂😂...goddamn English is my 4th language and I was like, wha, what did he just say, sweeped?😂
Lost battalion hall came a long way Queens Blvd. 💯
I was the one who told him add the B to your name hahaaha😂
2 playoff series win for my Knicks in the last 23 years. But we coming back.
Big Boy, don't be cutting off Kenny while he giving Shaq his business flowers.
Big fan of the Jet. I pay attention when he speaks
Kenny has been one of the biggest voices in the World 🌎🌍🌍 Kenny thank you Dogg 🏆🏆
H.O.U.S.T.ON Kenny the Jet! 🚀🚀
Big is GOAT of interviewers.
40:52 Bars
BigBoy needs his flowers now!!! 🤝🏾
Ran into Kenny years ago @ the barbershop..he’s the same guy in real life
No surprise.
Love kenny
Yo that shaq impression was spot on
Love Kenny smith
"Oh...you don't work hard enough". Astounding how one wise comment can change the entire trajectory of someone's life.
This is 👀. Kenny is 💯
Not me watching this while I’m on the plane and regretting not doing something creative lol
Shaq face b4 the question ends we all know that in the inside no matter how much we love sir charles
They just talk about everything and everyone lol I think they try to keep it real as much as that is possible. And let's gooooooooooooooooo
57:51 LMFAOOOOOOO
BIG: gotta check the ball for some AI….🤣
I will be getting this book
MADE ME LIKE KENNY EVEN MORE .
Shaq is a boss we won't appreciate him until hes gone
Like gone from life or gone from TV lol
OG 💯
You know I am from jersey got me
Kenny got it twisted. You could beat the brakes off of someone and still be a good, caring person
Shout out to the lady that remebered Kenny from his 10 second scene on a flop movie
Funny how he says Chuck is wider. I saw them in Dallas during the All-Star game at Cowboy stadium and that was the first thing I said......
I love TNT I watch most games for the commentating.
This was a great show. Informative and humorous. Glad Kenny is doing well after his divorce.
You got me f it thank the jet
Big RaSpect for such cool dudes 😎
3:25 😂
