Gilbert” whatsoofunny “ Arenas
Kenyon” know what i’m saying” Martin
You can't forget Gilbert's " You gotta remember" lol😂😂😂
@@gilfordmccormack8140 and his "what ends up happening is"
@@jerijobrosales lmaaoooo. So accurate
“Right”
"'Father time guarded Shaq" If I'm Shaq I might ask if I can have that quote on my headstone or something. That's so true.
I loved watching Shaq play.
Man I hope so
Kenyon Martin was a legendary tough guy - with SKILLS. Not too many of those cats are around anymore.
📠📠
He thug AF, but has an easy smile. Its honestly more intimidating.
Kenyon “know what I’m saying?” Martin
Kmart is a straight beast man, solid power forward for those nets and nuggets teams in the 2000’s
And Gilbert “You gotta remember” Arenas
@@dntbill914 😂😂😂😂
@@dntbill914 You mean Gilbert "I bring guns to the Arenas" Arenas
@@dntbill914 haha I thought it was Gilbert “1-4 flat!” Arenas 😂😂🤷🏽♂️
Fr
Another testament from a retired NBA player that speaks highly on Kobe's skill and determination to beat his opponent. I still remember them battles between Kenyon Martin and kobe. MAMBA MENTALITY! RIP 🙏
Been a fan since Cincinnati.. felt bad when he got hurt. He was a beast
i love the continuous giggling from everyone while remembering the jokes calls from refs and personal reactions - legendary stories
Man them j Kidd and martin alleys was legendary
43:27 Bron was drafted three years after Kenyon. He was in your era 😂
Those 3 years a lot of older players were retiring
League was already changing tho
This shit is crazy to think about how is this nigga lebron still good and in the league lol
@@youngprophet5138 that’s why he the goat
Kenyon was 7 years older though.
For these kids that don't know.. Kenyon was the first non Superstar #1 pick that was a true enforcer💯 he played Defense and didn't back down to Duncan or KG!! Put hands on Tmac 20 years ago and alot of the media sweep that under the rug
I really don’t think Gilbert needs another host. No disrespect to this host or the last host. Gilbert just has deep knowledge and charismatic personality. Often times you forget it’s another guest there
I think it’s the direction and questioning he prolly just don’t wanna take the time to do. He for sure could do it but he just prolly like forget find me somebody to keep it interesting that ask the right questions. Like for instance Josiah asked about the palace and that took up 20 minutes of the hour
Where did the old guy go?
Hosts allow gilbert to pick his spots. Just long as the hosts understand that and stay out the way.
@@kobekold not sure just a show revamp I guess new everything.
@@freshestinclass763 facts
This new host is so much better. He clearly understand the power of silence
Yeah; but them pants louder than a MFKNaaaaaaaaaaaaa
If you flop on me, imma hit you the next time.”- 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 4:25
If kenyon martin sr was in the malice in the palace, he would do what Stephen Jackson did😭😭and man everyone in the crowd would’ve been slept by Stephen and Kenyon😭😭😭
Lol that would've been hilarious
Great interview. Is great to hear one of the toughest players in the league in his time.
I like how relaxed everyone was and the conversation seemed natural and not forced.
These guys right here know the game fr. We always say it’s soft but they jus adjusting to the rules. It’s like u going to play ball in the hood, u know it’s about to be real physical and hard fouling so u play physical. So that’s how today’s players would adjust to the 80s and 90s. Now those 80s and 90s players will have to adjust
You right but some guys did not adjust to physical project basketball. Alot guys were afraid of contact which disturbed their game. Which made them not the same guys
I like this take main man!
Facts but the game is soft.. Just is
All I am saying is Steve Nash became a perennial MVP immediately after the rules softened.
Playing ball in the hood ain’t tough no more. Mfs be calling foul more than females smh
K Mart looking at this dude pants like “Wtf you got on” 😂😂
James Wiseman found out real quick when he tried to dunk on K mart JR. , that you have to dunk with some authority , don't bring no weak shit to the paint...fucked him up smoove with the "Hell Naw Fam" rejection...Wiseman will come back stronger or.......
He had some of the most disrespectful blocked shots in history. I remember dudes getting in their feelings after Kmart pinned their shot to the top of the backboard square.
My favourite college player of all time, hell of an NBA player too
Those UC teams were very good. Probably the best collection of talent to not win a Natty.
Can’t wait to see who y’all have next, but you gotta explain what happened to mike😭
He isn't a hooper
@@jpthebusinessman I thought the same
@@jpthebusinessman he was still cool to have on the show
That Cincinnati squad was beastly, Steve Logan at the point.
Loved both these guys growing up.. their personalities on the court were fun to watch fr!
2000s NBA era was like the WWE 😭💯
Well, 1990s was the WWF. When it was more violent.
Great Interview !
Without question - Kmart is one of my favorites. Period.
Gil’s face was hilarious when k mart said he took it personal
38:24
How
Need you on knuckle heads next kmart. cant wait to hear stories at UC going back and forth with q
Kenyon should be a regular guest he’s amazing 🔥🔥
18:40 WE DONE PAID SEASON TICKETS FOR SHIT LIKE THIS im in tears lmao
“ we was losing so I was tryna get kicked out “ 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Man I knew all the time some players and coaches do that just to get kicked out.. especially when u see a team getting blown out and a coach act crazy knowing damn well just don't wanna see that massacre
K-Mart and Amare Stoudemire are the reasons why NBA Live had to add the Power Type Players in the game.
Gil made a great point against his point. The fact that he’s played at the same weight as Kenyon invalidates the size issue by itself. You can’t just look at a player’s height and weight and think you have the whole story. The biggest difference in the game is the rules designed to create more flow and coaches “greenlighting” everyone. Previously coaches would see a player do something in practice and forbid them to do it in the game based on size prejudice . Now if your shot doesn’t break the backboard, the coach encourages the player to shoot.
I love this podcast
They keep it so official. They say everything they don’t say on ESPN
Kenyon and Gilbert talking about their kids and their games were hilarious lol
This is chill asf
Thank Y'all
K Mart - One of my favorite players ever... only time I watched college basketball was when he was at Cincinnati
Kmart style of play definitely would translate in this era outside of him having an OK jumper all his other tools would fit perfectly just imagine if he didn’t break his leg at UC
Kmart would dominate in this era double double machine
His son got springs, he a bunny rabbit
Naw he is to much of a bruiser for today's Era..
@@tj2nasty4ya83 so your saying shaq couldnt play in this era
@@tj2nasty4ya83 lol that’s what the league needs
“Father time guarded Shaq.” -Kenyon Martin
ribs and barbecue and lazy work ethic guarded shaq
I remember the Lakers vs the Nets in Finals when Kenyon was on that team and he was guarding Kobe and well. But Kobe did Kobe things
that was unusual then to have a power forward guarding a shooting guard
@@ryanr20091 true true
Glad white dude isn’t there fighting for Gil and his guest’s approval lmao
He brought nothing to the table
Why he not hosting no more ?
@@MrBmick79 you mean besides too many awkward moments? Dude was oblivious to the conversations going on during the pod lol
@@mylord4916 my guy brought up the most irrelevant things out of a whole deep conversation about ball lmaooo
He wouldn’t of lasted this episode 😂
Good interview, but I would have like to hear more about what kmartin is doing now and his podcast with Jadakiss
Dig it!!!🤜
Dude love that Deion shirt
They need Kmart and RJ on at the same time! That dunking duo of the early 00s
J kidd got a bunch of assist off k mart and rj crazy it been damn near 20 years ago
The "Glove" next😎
Kenyon good podcaster
Is it weird that is saw the title and heard “ AAAYYYYYOOOOO” from Rory and mal
This is the only interview I’ve seen that Gil talked less than the guest 😂 know K Mart ain’t the type to be over talking 😂😂😂
Chin Check Committe lol
😂
Facts!!!
Yeah I see you the type to hype shit up 😂😂
Old Man Riverwalk getting love is always good
I seen the 90s 00s and now and Im still trying to see where this "Physicality" at
I'm From Cincinnati had a chance to meet That Bad Ass Yellow Boy in footlocker in Clifton
Perfect timing = after Shaq talked about 2021 NBA Centers being so soft.
Me being “that guy” that religiously watched the videos but didn’t realize I wasn’t subscribed to the 🐐🐐🔥🔥🔥
🤣🤣🤣
Bring swaggy p on as your co host Gil
💯
Please, no!
@@randykincy7954 no swaggy p slander will be tolerated
I picked up the chair like "Yo Stay away" ahahhahahahhahahahahahaha
former players usually blame the current players rather than the current rules as the game
can someone make a "you know what I'm saying" cut?
Austin Croshere & a cpl other players didn’t want no smoke! I don’t think they were scared I just think bc they wasn’t initially part of what was going on they were able to process what was going on & the consequences that surround an incident of that magnitude. Stacks is a REAL 1 tho!! Respect him to the fullest!!
I guess this speaks to rodman's greatness. giving up like 100+ lb playing shaq straight up
Rodman is great but the Shaq Kenyon played was a different beast from the one Rodman played. No disrespect to rodman, he's one of the greatest defenders ever.
@@dshawandunwell3892 Well shaq gained a lot of weight in his chip run and after that, presents challenges for sure, but at the same time, rodman guarded a younger, more tenancious, more agile and faster shaq. I get your point, but strength/muscle also hurt shaq's speed/agility.
@@jayzee316 Heavier Prime ShaQ was harder to guard... Rodman ain't gonna stop prime Shaq when posted up...
@@cdeleon3494 shaq was swept in LA by jazz, so they clearly did a good enough job of stopping prime shaq with greg ostertag. or else shaq woulda seen bulls/rodman in the finals, but they couldnt get there till 2000 being blocked by jazz and spurs. I think shaq was always shaq and can get you 30+15, but it took kobe's growth as a superstar and the role players around them to make the break through.
@@jayzee316 it took for Mike to walk away
Even if Kmart flamed out the league after 5 or 6 years hypothetically he still would be one of the best CBB players of all time
Bad statement bruh. If he flamed out lol. Something the didn't happen. He had a great career
I think Kenyon had a good career but he was the the number 1 overall pick. I don’t know if he lived up to that billing but he was solid.
@@inhumanjoey310 why do u think I said hypothetically lol I know he had a good career most nba careers don’t last that long to begin with BUT if his was cut short, his peak would’ve been at the college level…..would’ve been another WHAT IF story
@@manifest7791 I can agree with that most definitely he had a solid career for a No.1 pick I believe he did somewhat early in his career but injuries hurt him if he didn’t break his leg he’d definitely be more that a 1 time all star
@@manifest7791 his draft class is considered one of the worst of all time. I think Michael Redd was the only other all star from that draft class. All that considered he lived up to what was expected for that group of players.
Real Cincinnati bearcat legend! Miss them bob Huggins teams them niggas played hood ball with skill and they had all the new js before they dropped 🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾. The city was lit shoulda competed for a national championship the year he broke his leg
I'm glad a real physical player is on here. Today's ball game is too damn soft.
Gilbert has come along way from when he first started the podcast i could def see him joining espn or Fox soon.
They'll never let it go. They fired Paul Pierce for partying with strippers, and smoking weed in HIS OWN HOUSE. Gilbert brought mutiple guns to the arena to intimidate a teammate! Love Gil, but it ain't gone happen.
@@devinchristian9326 he don't need them tbh...JS!!
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Gil’a face when k mart said he took it personal
I definitely know what he's saying. that Jerry Stackhouse Story was hilarious!!! Had me in tears!😂😂😂
Time?
Stack is an beast
Are them good books to read that’s on the table..
Is Gilbert calling Ron Artest soft? Lmao idk about that big dog 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Guess Mike was replaced
Thank god
Kenyon”just to go back to wut u were saying”Martin!
Kenyon Martin just casually called Jeff Foster on the Pacers Scott Foster and no one said anything 🤣
Jakk from Texas!
You Kan tell Mr. Oak Kliff wanted to be in the Malice 😂
Kenyon Martin: I want to coach in the NBA
Also Kenyon Martin: I can't get used to the new rules in the NBA
He wants a paycheck but dude is a punk honestly … good player but alcoholic bully by some accounts
Also K Martin: “we will see” when asked if he wants to coach in the NBA.
You are aware that coaching and playing are two different things right.
@@clutch7548 you know him personally??? Everyone has a past. I’m pretty sure your mama used to and still is getting down on the low. But we not holding her to her past.

Please bring back Legends of chamberlain heights shit was so funny 😂😂😂😂
Why are they filtering out the cursing?
J. Kidd and Kenyon Martin was lob city.
Whatever happened to the old host? I can’t find anything online about it.
He was wack.
@@gc4479 from your comment history I can tell you didn’t like him😂😂
I don’t think players today are bigger and stronger. They maybe more skilled, but bigger and stronger that’s debatable
Gil really the goat of la hoopers I remember when I young hearing about Gil cause my cousin played at Taft in valley and I went to westchester when it was westchester Amir Johnson TA and many others nobody fucking wit Gil
My boy be in Macy’s buying that psycho bunny 😂😂
Ain't nothing wrong with Macy's lol
@@dariuslamont2007 nothing at all lol Macy’s prices high just like any other luxury brand lol
@@diegotheyorkie1420 😂😂 yup
54:20 K-Mart got PTSD from that 3 seconds 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Aye that's real Shaq was different.. took 2 decades hella era shifts to see that again, giannis officially & technically prime Dwight
Good question. Where was Jamaal Tinsley when all that jumped off? He was the one that pumped Ron up to foul Ben Wallace.
What's the big dudes name
K Mart a real one
Zion could play in that era for sure!
Zion doesn’t even play in THIS era
so did the replace the other dude permanently?
No.1 over all pick and his introduction was 1 time all star enforcer. Doesn't sound like KMART lived up to it
If we being honest he didn’t. He was a tough guy and had a good career but not overall no 1 worthy. Fans like tough guys tho.
K Mart's ankle is the reason we won the NCAA chip
If he would’ve been healthy Cincinnati would have took it all
@@jasonzagotti9343 Those are facts! That point guard on Cincy was nice too. Izzo's over rated ass has one chip due to Kenyon's ankle.
Miss Allen iverson nugget days
Kenyon “knowhaimsayin” Martin
I just realized Josiahs pops is Norman from White Men Can’t Jump! 😂 Naw Naw this ain’t Norman 😂
26:25 😂😂😂😂😂 I ain’t kno Kmart was dis funny
K Martin was one of the few that had skills along with the physicality. Most of them didn't have any skills compared to the level on display in today's game.
Man Kmart ain’t have no skills like that lol he was just super athletic , strong , aggressive, etc … but he wasn’t a shooter , didn’t really have any post moves , no handles etc … lol I fw him I’m just being honest
K mart was super athletic and tough. Smart player too. There was a lot of skillful players back then the league was lit imagine a tmac playing today game
@@kingjonesthe1st nah Kmart had a high IQ he def could’ve played in this era
@@kingjonesthe1st bro if guys like Taj Gibson or some shit can get starter minutes in this era then Kenyon Martin would get too
@@dennisthemenace855 I never said he couldn’t play today ; I said he isn’t a skills player …
That was over in 2008 about them the defense changed we haven't seen a great defensive team since the piston. There aren't any teams with a dominate defensive identity anymore what's a great defensive team now? Exactly there isn't one anymore. Who's q great perimeter defender? There aren't any anymore. Everyone plays no touch defense now the scoring is crazy and people aren't defensive specialists any more. I think it's wack you want a balanced game. If there's a way for offensive teams there needs to be a way to be a defensive team too. My theory on that.
04 Pistons shutting Kobe n Lakers, NBA changed the rules to make it easier for offensive players.
