Kyle and JJ sitting all proper with crossed legs and good posture… my man Tommy looking like drunk uncle just smooshed into the couch 😂
So disrespectful, they give him the chair Will Smith has to use during his interview for MIB
You have to have chicken legs to do that
JJ you so awkward on espn
Brings no value to the show
@@Bobby-lp8zd give it time ,
This small room can't contain the pure sharpshooting talent these two players have.
Tommy balances it out 🤣🤣
@@jacqueswebster3453 hey Tommy’s a bucket 😂
@@chriswrld9991 look at how that dude is sitting all the time i cant imagine him getting the ball up to the rim smh
@@jacqueswebster3453 😂😂

I love how Tommy just lets them talk without interrupting. He comes with good questions every now and then, and just lets them rock.
I had that exact thought right after the A.I question
Facts that’s why he is always there, not annoying, good questions and also good listener, and chilling
We all need a friend like Tommy 🙌🏽
Who is Tommy? I'm a casual.
@@Iam_jardow the guy in the video with the blue shirt
I remember shooting with my coach in my high school Gym and Kyle pulled up for his own shooting practice. He’s such a down to earth guy it was an honor to witness his greatness.
That’s the worst story I ever heard

These interviews are so good,
it shows the human side of you guys as Basketball players.
It is inspiring.
Same with the football players too bro
Perfectly said
Yea i hope JJ and Tommy keep going
Completely agree, always better than any other interviews because it's just so chill and informal, players can be themselves around JJ and Tommy.
I see what ur trying to say but really bro the human side?? they’re people like us🤣🤣
Kyle Korver had one of the fastest release and his shooting form was beautiful, my favorite era of him was his Bulls days when he was Hot Sauce
that bench mob tho!!
GIVE ME THE HOT SAUCE NEIL FUNK. STACY KING AND HIS COMMENTARY!
Philly days was the best the knee high socks
I grew up in right outside of Atlanta. The 60 win Hawks team made me love basketball and Korver became my favorite player of all time. Seeing how elite he was at shooting inspired me to start perfecting my shooting craft.
Thank you Kyle Korver
2015 hawks are sooo underrated. If we stayed healthy we could of beat the Cavs
@@uncletruth4529 lmao, don’t think so pal
@@uncletruth4529 The Hawks weren't healthy in the Playoffs?
@@sharifbrown3567 thabo was injured by the police, demarre Carroll was the first to be injured in the series, then Kyle was injured, then horford was ejected if I'm not wrong. Teague stepped up big time but there's only so much we could have done
@@uncletruth4529 the cavs AND the refs
Crazy to see Ashton Kutcher on the pod, great job guys
Common mistake, that's actually Kevin Malone.
@@CJL1567 equally handsome, equally smart.
Mann I thought I was trippin 😂😂😂 I was like Ashton Kutcher used to hoop?😂😂
This wasn’t an interview…It was conversation between 2 of the greatest shooters in NBA history!
Curry/ray allen greater but i get what you mean
@@sorinn7894 what a pointless reply lmao what are you tryna do here shut up
@@Frozaee cuz they better check the stats
@@sorinn7894 he didn't say the 2 greatest
@@sorinn7894 you misunderstood the assignment. Side note. I think a Curry Ray Allen conversation would be kinda lame actually
That paddle boat story was damn inspiring.
True inner peace in life can be achieved through grinds toward perfection. Competition with oneself is ultimately the only one that matters.
I loved his anecdote about his time paddle boarding and how there is a deep knowledge/understanding that you only gain through truly grinding something out over a long stretch of time. Pushing your boundaries and truly perfecting what it is within your control. Pretty cool story and makes sense that if he applied that experience to his craft it was only a matter of time before he became masterful at it.
Again - loved the pod, congrats on the ESPN gig and keep up the good work!
reads like something out of a Pulitzer-award-winning novel. Like a sentence or paragraph that rocks you or changes your life.
You wrote the words of my mind and heart after listening to this. I was super impressed with Kyle’s depth and awareness. Beautiful stuff
It was such an incredible story. Kyle needs a job in writing or host a podcast of his own, he really has a way with words
It was the most motivating thing I’ve heard in a while and he was simply just sharing an experience. He’s a great speaker.
the perfect stroke, man oh man, just like what jj said, the detail is insane
That view behind Korver though!😳
You forget how decorated Kyle Korvers career really is. Great player ✅
Hell yea fool was a beast see his highlights
JJ is definitely my favorite interviewer for the nba. He asks super articulate questions
If it wasn’t for those Warriors, I swear Korver would have a championship w LBJ.
And he would have deserved it
He would have had 2 and bron would have tied jordan in rings and dethroned jordan as the goat, jordan should be grateful to kd for defending his legacy.
@@yz2553 🤣🤣🤣 factsss
if it wasnt for those meddling kids
I mean... obviously
Damn Kyle is much smarter and more well thought than I imagined. Im jealous of his level of focus and his wisdom, loved to listen to his perspective
Have listened to the majority of nba player interviews, and this far and away is the best conversation. Kyle is a an extraordinary guy and it’s awesome to see how comfortable you guys were discussing very real topics. Can’t say how much good you guys are doing with this show. You guys deserve every bit of recognition and success that comes along your way.
This was great, Kyle Korver seems like a cool dude - we need an Iverson visit JJ -
Kyle is one of my two favorite players of all time, the other being Joe Johnson. I was so excited when this was announced, and wasn’t disappointed! Every Hawks fan LOVES Korver!
Lol very random favorite players but I can dig it. Joe Johnson was a bucket
Mine was Marvin Williams lol
Joe is my 4th pick，after AI CW4 and VC
@@andrewzapata9420 If you're a Hawks fan it's not that random really is it? Johnson was one of the best players they had since 80s and Korver was probably the best shooter they ever had
@@silewis9396 I’m actually a Sixers fan, and korver was a great player for us… but he’s talking about his favorite players lol.,, of all time! Lol… to each it’s own, I just thought they were random lol
Very interesting interview. I watched all of it. I've always liked Korver and loved hearing him talking something else outside of the game-related, formulaic interviews. One thing, though - it REALLY bugs me how the camera on Korver gets brighter and darker all the time. Just a tip, guys - if you put a person with his back to a window, you need a constant light source infront of them to level up the overall brightness. And do NOT put the camera on auto exposure, because it's dumber than you think. It's going to shift the exposure like that more often than not.
Kyle Korver almost bought our house when he played on the Bulls, but didn’t. Also Luol Deng looked at it. Nah I didn’t meet them, but my late great Dad did 🏆
what world do we live in where something called Twerk Nation exists jesus christ
That's awesome
Did you go to Glenbrook North?
Winneka??

Would’ve been extremely dope and interesting to have seen Kobe on this pod… R.I.P. Mamba
😞
At least we got Kobe on All The Smoke. Matt and Stack have so much history with him, too.
still makes me cry when I watch his videos.
Mad respect for Kyle Korver. I used to always trade for Kyle Korver back in the NBA live 2005 days. Rookie that could shoot the lights out.
Carmelo on the cover, GameCube. That was my first NBA video game and I played the daylights out of it lol
I'm only four minutes in, but this opening by Korver is just fantastic insight into his mentality. 👏👏👏
amazing episode! another classic. loved hearing both JJ's and Kyle's perspectives on retiring and relating it to a loss and having to deal with a grieving process. so important for young athletes to see this. great interview!!
Conversations like this are why podcasting is so enrapturing. This was legitimately profound in so many ways and beyond just enjoying the opportunity to learn from respectable individuals, this was equally inspiring to me so I just wanted to say continue to to share this kind of dialogue and insight with people. We appreciate it🤝
Kyle Korver shot 6.8 threes a game in 2004 with the Sixers. Definitely a pioneer of the modern NBA.
Most awesome background (when they get the lighting right) for an interview I've ever seen. Very good chat, as is usually the case on JJ's show.
Loved the pod cast my favorite one in awhile thank you I appreciate it !
That layup drill story had me rolling!!!! JJ is so naturally funny
He literally one of the greatest 3 point shooter. He deserves recognition.
Love this pod! Stories are the best. Humility displayed by your guests, shows why they lasted so long and had successful careers. Great view of the Bridge.
During the draft I predicted Korver to the Sixers. I remember as a kid sitting there and saying we need a shooter and I wanted Kyle. Then we drafted him and I went crazy 🏀💪🏽
Loved Kyle when he had his time in Utah. One of my fav jerseys !
these interviews are gas🔥🔥🔥
The original vertical podcast ep with Kyle was one of my favorites. Glad to see them again together.
That story about Kyle boarding is one of the many reasons I love this podcast and listen every Friday morning on my commute.
Keep up the incredible work JJ and Tommy!
underrated legend!! every time Kyle let that ball go you thought it was going in
Wow! Awesome conversation, and a great guy, hope to see him again
Kyle needs his own podcast ASAP dudes so humbled and has a good mindset love all your episodes but this one was the best imo
This is my favorite video JJ! Love the channel and keep up the great work brother. Peace
That was Lowkey the best interview I’ve seen in a longgg time
JJ is so good. He really lets the interviewee ponder, reflect and relate without interupting, which gets the interview to deeper places.
What an awesome interview! I always enjoyed watching Kyle play, but I’m an even bigger fan now...such a cool guy that seems to have it all together.
I loved going to Creighton games when Kyle was there. His shooting got the crowd lit in a hurry!
Great interview. Someone get my man Kyle a real chair to sit on.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was just thinking how it reminded me of thr chair Will Smith had to use in his interview in MIB
@@Bungoo13 fr🤣🤣🤣
one of the best podcast out.. look forward too all the guest they interview..
What a great interview! Kyle seems like a great and deep guy!
It's so dope to see two of my favorite shooters talking and doing an interview and it's kinda disappointing they didn't get to play together..That would have been so cool to see.
Korver has been a rock solid person and player from the start. He always was more open and real than most players. I admittedly don't watch a lot of the full interviews on this channel (mostly the highlights), but this was a must watch.
JJ gave a shoutout to one of our Puerto Rican Legends Carlos Arroyo, didn’t know they played together in Orlando.
This is one of your best episodes. Really moving and thoughtful discussion.
Thanks a lot for interviewing him 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Cheers
I met him at a football game one time. He felt very down to earth and it was great to get to see him
This episode will go in my top favorites. The description of basketball as a teacher a friend a companion... damn that was super deep
This sis such a great podcast . Excellent stories and insights keep it up jj and Tommy!
JJ Redick….excellent podcast. I’ll be honest. The climate is over saturated with podcasts by current and retired stars, to the point it’s annoying. The vibe, conversation, the setup, etc. Bro……this is a winner. You have something special here.
Kyle was always one of my favorite shooters. Such a pure shot. Awesome guy.
Good interview. Good authentic stories, ?'s, give and take. Korver + Reddick are good ppl, excellent players, very committed to what they did/do. Thanks for sharing how u did that.+
I never watched him when he was on Atlanta or 76ers I watch his later career got nothing but the upmost respect for Jj and Kyle even more. Seems like a GREAT human. Cheers boys
Utah Kyle was good too. Along with Millsap, AK47, Deron Williams, Boozer.
Great episode, the setting was dope!
Incredible conversation
Love to see it, great stuff.
This was one of the better ones, especially what Kyle said around the 1 hour mark.
Kyle!! Great to see you buddy!! Great hearing your perspective and voice!! I just heard the part you are not officially retired!! Get a deal back to Philly!! You know we love you!! Retire as a Sixer!! That would be ideal in my non-nba perspective!
What a great interview..pretty hard to top this one
easily one of the best episodes yet
This was a great interview. Kyle seems like an awesome guy.
We needed this !!!
What a great interview 👏🏿
He's one of my favorites players... from Atlanta I'm grateful he played in my home town and became an all star
"It`s Wilson.."- boy, what a great, great interview. Was a huge fan of Kyle while he played. Will become a greater fan of the person he is now..
Terrific conversation
Korver was that guy! Loved him when he played for ATL. His jumpshot was so pure. Like it was always clean. When he would come of a screen from Harford and Teague would hit him with the pass! Ah good times
Great Episode !!!!
Another great interview love the different perspectives all dese players keep doing ya thing JJ🔥🔥🔥u gotta get my boi klay Thompson on here💪🏼
The dot on the camera that goes over Kyles head is so distracting lol
was about to comment this lmao gotta clean that lens
I cleaned my screen first before realizing it was the video.
Bruh I thought something got under my screen protector
great pod, jj such a natural conversationalist
damn this is a new episode. im glad i watched it right when it dropped
That paddle board story gave me goosebumps!
This has become one of my favorite podcast episode to listen to
22:04 Korver unleashed "really? I can do that?"
kyle is a great speaker. loved the interview
I've always viewed Korver and Reddick similarly in terms of offensive game. Great interview!
Amazing episode
I’ve waited so long for this !!
Two upper class NBA snipers having a great convo!
This podcast is gold!
300k!! Congrats!
here before a million
Really like hearing kyle’s perspective, seems like a smart and wise guy
the paddle story was incredible, so inspiring
I love this podcast! It's my favorite qnd there is never a dull episode. But please Tommy, sit upright and fix your posture so you don't have low back or next pain from it.
Podcast with The Greatest Shooter ever?!? Love you JJ!
Awesome stories and life lessons
I live in Santa Barbara, so that paddle boarding story was pretty relevant. Kyle is right about the sharks, too - there's a bunch of them between the Channel Islands and the shore (they eat the seals that live on the islands) and there are oil rigs out there and it's common to have cruise ships drop anchor in that general vicinity, and they can't steer any better than the tankers. It's really not all that safe between the islands and the mainland and paddle boarding between them sounds very hard.
Crazy I always thought of theses guys as shadows of each other good interview
I feel like if this conversation went on for 20 hours I would watch for 20 hours 💯✅
Great show
aside from how korver is sitting, awesome interview! i used to despise both these guys back in the day... now i respect the heck outta them both. great interview!!
I love this podcast
