I hope they can get Brandon Roy on here that dude was the man in Portland before the injuries got in the way
Good one
Man Brandon Roy must don’t like doing interviews lol
@@Mr.TruthWilliams He did one with Michael Porter Jr its 🔥🔥🔥
man Brandon Roy was the BUSINESS
Yes please get my folks b Roy he’s family and coaching kids now
“Who is the first person to bust your ass” Is always the first reason why i watch these videos, simple but effective
Real and raw
Facts, then I love the answers cause it’s rarely the stars it be guys like Andre Miller, Sam Cassell, and other low key bucket getters.
Facts
Frfr... love it‼️‼️
@@jarvaroushill2714 somebody Said del Fino and I was like damn 😆
It's time, get Eddie Jones on the show 🔥🔥🔥
Love those 90s lake show squads!
Damn 💯
Fast
AND Nick Van EXEL!
@@useyourthirdeye9083 nick already came
Grant Hill was literally the only dude I’ve seen to consistently buss Scottie Pippens ass, like every single time. I wish he had stayed healthy.
Him & Kobe yep. They both would bust scottie up crazy and i never knew why they could destroy him so consistently lol
He was going to be top ten….without the injury. He was so nice early.
@@marcelmarshall4240 yea that’s what made it so crazy, he was good as soon as he touched down
he had way too much for Pip
They caught Pip later
You can tell G Hill is naturally humble. He was that guy back in the day tho!
G Hill was the first "Next Jordan". Man he would have been in the GOAT conversation if he didn't have those injuries.
GHill and Penny! Man, I love watching them back in the 90s. Their signature shoes were everywhere.
Amen!!!
Those were my dudes too!!
Pippen and Penny were my guys growing up.
Imagine if both stayed 100% healthy.. some 💍 rings would've change hands 👌🏾
“I used to want to fit in but in order to be great you have to stand out” might’ve just changed my life. I relate to Grant a lot, that just changed my whole perspective
Facts! I caught that one too! Straight jewel 💎 💯
Exactly!!! He could've been 25-8-8 from Day 1 but was more willing to facilitate, he couldn't really be stopped!
God damn that really resonates with me too, thank you.
I missed that. What's the marker when he said that?
Lmao that’s been said a million times. Some of y’all need to read more than Twitter
Grant was a great guest. He's very insightful and transparent and an amazing story teller. So easy to interview someone like him
Darius Miles looks much healthier this season. No idea what he’s doing differently, but I’m happy to see it ❤🎉
Doesn’t have the stress from that insurance case anymore
me too H3J..bout Darius lookin betr!
i immediately thought the same thing
He Eatin right
@@cchampaine179 it's so simple and obvious but... good diet and less alcohol... it goes far
Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway, Tracy McGrady all are what if players,, im a big G Hill fan, the man was unstoppable!!
Prime G Hill is my favorite player
Crazy they all played for the Magic.
All 3 are favorites of mine!!
Derrick Rose too :(
I am sorry but Penny & G.Hill changed the way their position played basketball....they were ushering in a new era of basketball....both gave Jordan and Pippen troubles... if you don't believe me go look at the highlights...
Omg this 2 hour episode rey come in clutch at work
Bro u 2
You not lying!!!!
Definitely on the line listening to this lol
Facts
I’m so ready for y’all to get MJ. Y’all have history and I’m dying to hear him answer that first question 😅
I doubt it mj never does podcast there's better chance lebron comes out on here since d miles played with bron his first 3 years
@@MichaelSevilla97 I think MJ would do it. I’d love to see Lebron answer that first question too though.
They get MJ on there will break the internet.
MJ is too much of a dick to come on the podcast.
Any podcast that does but MJ doesn’t & hasn’t ever enjoyed the media. From the Chicagoland area & grew up watching the man ALOT… & the thing with MJ is he’s not going to be able to give a interview that’s this casual, he like it controlled & only talking about the things that happened pretty much. I’d move to see it myself but from what I could tell from Al the years of watching him is he can’t give a tee interview without the add home coming out in short 😂…. You ever saw the old Oprah clip with Charles where he was casual & basically shitted on Barkley the whole time jokingly. Plus he has the ultimate confidence in his greatness, y’all would fuck around & very easily hear himcl call himself the GOAT, brag on himself & leave others out etc, it’s how he’s wired. If y’all ever booped he’s the cold ass dude on the court dropping bodies & talking shit . Arrogant as hell & no one buy his cousins like the nigga & his aau teammates 😂 & they hate playing with him because he takes all the shots & disses you about everything 😂…. But if he would open up like this , letting them ask their questions , that shit would kill… any podcast would … give him awhile, if Lebron gives one he definitely coming 😂 if for nothing else to steal the attention from him 😂
This man is so humble it's crazy. One of my favorite players ever. The only player I had the jersey and the sneakers as a kid!
Grant Hill was just Nasty !!!! his crossover was to so quick its was crazy. His dunks at Duke was like a video game cheat code.
Q Rich you had a great interview my boy. You wasn’t over talking like usual
Facts! I feel like Q exercises more self control in interviews involving legends who he deeply respects.
I interviewed Grant Hill in 1995 for Sports Illustrated for Kids. I cant find the tape, but he came to Mcmichael Middle School and sat down with us for a little bit. It was definitely a highlight of my childhood. I miss Grant Hill playing for the pistons. Since, we probably havnt had a single star as great even in 04.
What an intelligent person G Hill is. He was a killer in his first 4-5 years in the league. That revenge dunk on Alonzo is one of the best plays ever.
Yeah that Thunder dunk over Mourning was a bomb...cracking revenge dunk!
Darius, you are an amazing interviewer! Keep doing what you are doing. Of all these NBA podcasts, this one is top notch and it's because of you and your interview skills. You are genuinely interested and it shows in your questions.
I agree bro. 100%
These guys and The Pivot are my favorite podcasts out right now
Facts
I remember I got my first pair of Grant Hills 😊 the goat
Grant Hill was my first sports hero. I remember writing fan mail to him and playing on the Grant Hill courts he put in Detroit. I remember being 8 years old and arguing with my dad cause I wanted to wear Fila instead of Nike and converse. I got to go the Palace of Auburn Hills as a young buck from the east side of Detroit because of Grant, that really opened my eyes that the world was bigger than my neighborhood. He showed me that you can be cold and still be considered a “nice guy”. The heroes where I’m from were drug dealers until Grant came. He bought in and truly changed the culture in Detroit. Hate that he left but I will always have love for this man.
Second your sentiments! Love the fact that he mentioned Joe Dumars as a mentor...
Hey Knuckleheads, see if you can get Joe Dumars and Bill Laimbeer! Not many people liked him, but I respected his game!
great athletes should be role models for the community and Grant is one of them!
Much love to G.Hill✊🏾He came to my Elementary School on the Westside of Detroit in 95. He’s a great guy & role model.
What middle school. 313 up in here I went to Hampton
@@sniktawwatkins3412 it was my Elementary (Monnier) schoolcraft& meyers.
Once again I soon as I see a knuckleheads episode automatically click because it's always gonna be a legendary episode
RIP Mrs. Hill. A true matriarch.
G hill giving Scottie that work so bad that they had to put MJ on him was my fondest memory of him.
It would be sooooo dope if yall start doing cut aways like when D. Miles said I saw how u shook Scottie up then a clip of him shaking Pip pop up would be clutch. Food for thought.
This guys memory is so impressive, great interview! Keep ‘em coming
Toe 2 toe in the ring Q and D beating all the smoke any day 🔥( don’t get me wrong tho All the smoke still dope)
I hope D. Miles and Q Rich can get Monta Ellis on the pod, he was a killer back in the day 🏀
Haven't they?
No disrespect...but who are these guys,? Where did they come from? I don't recognize either one of them...
I been waitin on that 1 as well
@@christianjennings4343 nope not yet hopefully they get him on
@@aquaman7516 Monta Ellis is a Killa look up his highlights. He was the man at GSW until young Steph showed up
That Fila shoes is lit, this interview is amazing I was able to listen for whole duration, GHill is simply a class
I love when other Superstar athletes mention Amaré Stoudemire. A very underated baller.
Great show guys.💯
Grant is what ppl thought Will Smith was(no disrespect), but I get Obama vibes from him!! Great parents, educated, a winner, beautiful A List wife, faced adversity and well spoken and respected! Always had love for him but as a young black man, I think he is a leader for not just us but all ppl! 💯🤙🏾💪🏾
I’m 40 been following him since I was 6! He’s what I always wanted to strive for as an man if I was to pattern myself after someone 👑👑👑
Obama lol another sucker
I was always a NC fan and my best friend was a Duke fan. We were in high school at the height of Hills career in college. I couldn’t stand Hill because he was so cold on the court. The hate turned to respect and I will say he will forever be one of my favorite players. Truly hated his ankle injury. 🙏🏽
I hate Duke as much as I can hate any institution, but Grant Hill was that dude....IMO he is to Duke what MJ is to Carolina.
@@MrBmick79 facts
@@MrBmick79 that's very well put this is one of my favorite player's from my childhood 💯💯💯
@@MrBmick79 it's #@DukeNation on always!!! ❤
Grant hill is a must watch
Shout out to Grant for that Marcus Liberty shout, King high school in Chicago!
That practicing 5 v 7 is WILD!! Love hearing these stories...never heard that one. UNLV was that much of a problem, but the the prep to get his guys comfortable with pressure was even more incredible...sheesh. No mistake on greatness there...
He broke our hearts when they beat our Rebels and ended the undefeated season.
Another Banging Video Salute to Grant Hill The legend & Knuckleheads for this one, G. Hill mentioned and Gave props to Chicago's Very Own " Kenny the Snake Norman. & Marcus Liberty !!!
It never dawned on me how Legendary G hill was pure incredible
The grants hill shoe's by Fila was them one's in the mid 90's.🔥🔥🔥
Great question D Miles about both parents being there on draft night. Reminds me when I graduated from college and to be honest, my parents divorced but for them to be together for them what they sacrificed to see the result was beautiful.
His “right to left” cross was lethal
Yeah he got Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan with that crossover.
First step was lethal too
1:29:20 😊😊😊
😅
😅😅😅😅😮
Shawn Kemp, Jason Williams aka White Chocolate, Eddie Jones, Brandon Roy, Keith Van Horn & other 90’s/2000 players!
And get then to really descibe what it was like playing those 90’s Bulls teams & those Kobe Laker squads.
Steve Francis knuckleheads interview

Yep, Street and Smith, Parade All American teams...that's old school ball, I'm from Illinois but was a Big Sean Higgins fan too.
Great interview. Spot on Miles and Q. Grant Hill, a true legend and could do it all in his playing days.
Best bball podcast out💯💯💯
Man, I just want to take a moment to voice appreciation to the "Knuckleheads Podcast" & their guest. I'm a startup youth basketball development director down in Austin, Tx. You guys drop so many gems that I'm able to share with the kids. I love hearing a guest echo a message that I've given so the kids see that's it's not just me saying it. I had recently spoke on what you guys discussed at 1:32:13-1:33:08.
You all have reached a level that they dream of getting to so who's better to listen to? Salute!
I do the same with my son, with this & all the smoke… even Gil is insightful about certain things but you can’t let them hear all of Gilbert of course 😂
I love the Morehouse hat Q!!!
Hill is a real class act. As a kid when I first heard the name Grant Hill, it sounded much powerful than just a individual playing basketball. The name could’ve been big in anything. (Still can) High fashion clothing, Vehicles.. Can you imagine the Ford 150 Grant Hill Edition 😏
Grant Hill is so well spoken and eloquent
Really appreciate this interview. As a fan I hated Duke but loved watching this man compete. That game he had against Purdue and Big Dog was so classic. Humble but a dog. Never felt like he sweat on the court.
WHEN YALL GONE GET SPREWELL???
Get Mahmoud Abdul Rauf please . He has a new doc coming, would be great to sit down and talk about it
About time! Great interview & the best Podcast, thanks to the O.G’s & G. Hill! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
If these youngstas only knew how cold Grant Hill was 🔥
This show has slowly become one of my fav!
G.hill 4ever one of the most humble killers of all-time, thats why he's respected like he is and H.O.F injuries n all💯🤝🏾🔥🔥
Shoes is very iconic and cultural driven as well🙌🏿👟
#33
I remember seeing iz being mainstream from the inside of the AEOM 2pac CD.
Grant game was beautiful he had it all!!
Facts!
All but the 3ball, not that he couldn't shoot it, he just didn't attempt many, like Wade
Grant Hill speaks so well. Being raised in a good family makes a huge difference.
Grant has really good energy, I'm motivated just listening to a minute of him talk, he's the definition of a role model
Shoutout to Grant Hill man. Growing up in the 90s nobody could tell me he wasn’t the greatest lol I had every shoe he dropped I was called crazy in elementary school. Big ups to him man and thanks for having him
Those Grant Hill Filas were my first signature shoe. Classics
Grant Hill one of my favorites! Great interview
Another great job guys. My third time hearing Grant and just finding out his pop was in the NFL
Darius Miles is a humble dude… Was waiting on my food one day years ago in Chicago. Didn’t realize it was him until he stood up… Just an all around good guy, humble.
Them Grant Hills was cold 🥶
As a Bulls fan and Michigan fan, i always hated the teams he played on but i always respected him. Great player, even better person
Bull City Native...Thanks for the memories Grant. You are a GOAT!
Awesome! Its about time Grant Hill makes an appearance on Knuckleheads.
Finally! Grant explained that haircut. I saw this back in the day and was wondering who cut this dudes hair...lol
Legend!✊🏾
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Grant Hill One of dem GOATs 🐐 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I never get over the lil shots that they throw at each other, like true bros lol
🎶 “Regine, Regine…my lips are chapped I need some Vaseline…” 😂😂😂😂
Yea Grant Hill was a always good...and could have been Really one of the Goats ....
Love this podcast! This one was super special for me because I've had the pleasure as a Chef to cook for all 3 of these men! I grew up a Duke fan because of Grant Hill! Q Rich and D Miles were my favorites to play with on NBA live back in the day. Great show fellas. 🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾
It’s funny to see D Miles (Duke Hater) interview these Duke legends. Gotta show respect the hooper greats no matter what. 😊. Beat UNLV and the Fab 5
My favorite Player, Detroit all day!!
Grant is such a beautiful man! I read and enjoyed his book. Great interview
SMOOTH WORK 🔥🔥
I loved watching Q Rich and Miles tear it up in their prime. Being from Michigan, grant hill was always one of my favs. The pepsi machine with him on the side is iconic and a forever memory for me!
Coach K Basketball for Sega Genesis was my favorite game back then.
new to the knuckleheads , just wanna say y’all got me now
G. Hill got a lot of let me tell you a story stories 🤣. As a former hooper and a fan, I'll listen. Also we need that documentary ASAP!
I love this guy man :(...he made me become a real Pistons fan
I bought the Grant Hill 2. 3 different times in my life. And the 3rd pair was just 2 months ago
I went to a Pistons v Sixers game at the old Spectrum 94-95 G Hills rookie year. That Pistons rosters people forget about: Joe Dumars, Lindsey Hunter, Allan Houston, Terry Mills, Rafael Addison, Mark Macon. G Hill murdered the Sixers that night. T Mills put in work too, he was the third leading scorer behind Grant and Joe D for the season. T Mills had a cold jump shot.
I love Grant Hill. He's my favorite player. I've been a fan since his days at Duke.
wow this is so insightful, he dropped so many gems just casually
When I saw Grant Hill play in college always looked at him as a pro player. He was that different than everybody else.
Love my Knuckleheads, since ‘00!!!
Learned much of this from reading his book yet it still super dope to hear him share out loud. ❤
I saw Grant play against my Sixers. Dude was unreal 💯
Great interview with G Hill! One of the better ones I've seen on Knuckleheads 👌
Darius and Q keep up the good work I love the way yaw ask questions and let the guest speak and give all the information to the audience and don’t step on their answers. Salute good brothers
Grant was my guy! If he didn't have injuries, these conversations would be totally different as far as Goat talk. 💯
Great interview... my favirite ball player of all time.... growing up in Detroit and everyone was a Michigan fan... I was a Duke fan... cause of him... when he got drafted by the Pistons, I was elated lol
Is love from Ghana, i am always waiting on a new episode. I have learnt a lot from your show... I like the in depth basketball conversations... you dont get that on other podcast
G money🎉🎉 thanks for representing for the D back in the 90s. My Fav player as a kid💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I love this podcast! Been rocking with the knuckleheads since the beginning, Good interview with G. Hill
Man somebody need to get monta on they’re podcast I feel like that’s the toughest interview for anybody to land
