- The Big Diesel starts off Season 3 of Knuckleheads with Quentin Richardson and Darius Miles in a way only Shaq can do. The fellas sit down with one of the most dominant players in NBA history, describing what it was like when they were in L.A. as young boys and the Lakers, led by the Big Fella, were in the midst of their three-peat. Shaq then expounds on his high school journey, recalls the first backboard he broke and explains why his father was such a huge influence on him. He also touches on his time at LSU and how he came up with some early Shaq marketing plans while in Baton Rouge. Then the Big Diesel shifts gears to describe his draft process, why he didn’t work out for any teams and how he knew he was going top three. The discussion then turns to the Magic years, with Shaq rehashing a hilarious story about the first time he met Penny Hardaway. From there, it’s back to Los Angeles and life during the Lakers three-peat, with the conversation touching on Shaq and Kobe’s status as the greatest big-little duo of all time. Then Shaq gets into how, when trade rumors began to swirl, he ensured that he would go to Miami - and why he approached his relationship with D-Wade differently than he did his relationships with Penny and Kobe. The discussion then moves on from basketball, as Shaq talks about his kids, and discusses the process Shareef had to go through with his surgery this past year. Finally, the trio digs deep into the renaissance man that is Shaq - assessing his movies, how he got into the rap game, and why one day he knows he’ll be a county sheriff. The Big Diesel dominates everything he does, period.

Shaq gave Kobe his flowers while he was here. Respect
I been paying close attention to who did when he was alive vs. after
Gotta respect the hell outta him for that
respect. shaq should've just taken support role after 2004 and would've won like 8 chips with Kobe.
@@Mr.Laker19 it's irritating me how these new casual fans saying kobe's only respected because he's dead.
Ū
“I don’t like people that talk fast” 💯
ooo you might've just brought that into the world! TY Bro & Hopefully!!!
Real talk!
That’s the same thing my mom said about my girl 😂
You maybe listening slow🤔
That’s anybody from the hood iono like that shit
this is a clear illustration of what having a good father can do for a son.
100% props to Shaq for repping his Pops. Real talk.
And having the fear of GOD to go with that.
That's what makes LeBron great! no father and he is still a great man and role model.
Xnxxx
God bless all fathers putting in that sweet time right now cause that will pay off always
I've never seen Q and D so quiet listening to a guest. This is a diff level of respect! #Shaq
Hell yeah. Shaq is a great storyteller in his presence is Immense.
Shaq controls the room he’s in
#AsYouShould 🎯💯
💯
when shaq speaks , you listen
all the smoke with boogie then knuckleheads with shaq jeeeeeeeeez!
right! which to watch first! lol
Dot Net Digital Visual watch Boogie first cause he’s more boring (not in a bad way just kinda low energy). Then watch Shaq
This too much sauce on one day🔥
Watched Both, & cant wait til Mike Tyson join The GGN with Snoop
Ikr
I used to work valet at a big hotel in Orlando. I'm 6'5" and have to move the seat back in almost all cars......Shaq's cars were the only cars I was too small for 😂😂😂
Mike C pause
Mike C lp
@Mike C hold up 😆
“Man dis actor cold” LMAO
Laurence Cristoff hilarious 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 hilarious
Haha like dude, you in the wrong business buddy
Facts. 😂
Referring to Penny... "Man this actor, he COLD!" LOL!
"I didn't know you had freckles ole cute ass lil boy"😭😭😭😭
Bro that shit was dumb funny
IM ROLLIN 😂😂😂
😅🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
53:10
That was very professional at the beginning to let viewers know.RIP to those who passed.
6’9 at 13. Let that sink in
Kevin Ford yeah lmfao Shaq was born big!
@@manimal9871 could be genetics but probably that military base food and constant sunlight 🌄
Micharl doleac
Yo . LMAO !!
Grown Man , Present Day LBJ is 6"9 265 ... Teenage Shaq is that size as a kid ...
#WellDamn
"Who ever pick me, I'm going to work. Cause my motivation was this: soon as I get this check, we're going up wherever to a gated community and I'm gonna say mama pick one"
That whole part was awesome to hear.
everything he said was awesome to hear...man nba players aren't just basketball players, they're more than that...straight up
Bro if they get Michael Jordan they will shut the podcast game down
Souljaboy Gucci Headband Mike is too expensive. Asshole wanted Chamillionaire to pay him for an autograph😂
Souljaboy Gucci Headband you can’t just interview the actual goat 🐐 they’d piss their pants
@@MrDannyboyFL They've met him multiple times, idk why it couldn't happen
@@StLDFW i think mike just dont want to do interviews. his last big interview was with ahmad rashad iirc.
Mikes ego is way too big
Knucleheads podcast & All the Smoke podcast should do a cross podcast episode!
That shit would be dope AF.
Church
Facts
Agree 💯
Going to post ur comment every week on both podcast tell they hear us.
Stack is gonna be slumped off the henny and weed 😂😂😂
"being the best is too much work" I believe that's where Kobe and Shaq had their differences. But both of them are def the greatest duo with Shaq being the most dominant ever and we all know Kobe. RIP Mamba.
Shaq got the ability but no work ethic
Is Kobe top 5 though? Hard to say because 3 of his five belong to diesel. I have Shaq at 8 and Kobe at 9 in my top 10. Shaq gets these "work ethic" comments but literally carried Kobe to 3 championships.
The Count O how does 3 out of 5 belong to Shaq? Did you not watch the whole entire playoffs during their run together as teammates? I swear y'all downplay Kobe as if he didn't come through in the clutch in crucial moments. But, whatever.
@@mumuseer87 Per ESPN. The metrics are there. Are you the alpha in the finals? Did you score the most in the finals? Mvp in the finals? Tbh if you keep believing hes top 5 then you're either a laker fan or a Kobe fan boy. Do you even think hes top 10? C'mon man.
The Count O I'm a Detroit Pistons fan. But, Kobe been my fav player since 1999. I was 12 in 99. I just liked his game better than most. Honestly, I don't care about metrics or stats. I care about basketball. Also, I stand at 6'6" in height since I've been 16 years old. I just always thought that patterning my game after his and MJ was a perfect fit. Good day sir
Shaq said Michael Doleac 😂😂. Damn I’m getting old
Still need Rasheed Wallace!
Agree
Ball dont lie
OH HELL FUCK YEA!!!!🎯💯👌🏾🤣😂😂🤣 #ForDaCultureNigga
Or ben wallace
Wait! DeMarcus Cousins on All The Smoke And Shaq On Knuckle Heads I’m set for work 💪💪
Cory Dontae these two podcasts are going to end up killing every sport show on espn and fox sports Lmao
Same thing I said today on my mail route
DeMarcus Murphy lol same here .. Helps me for like 2 hours on my route.
Two best sports podcasts out period!
@@stoneryoutubecommenter3240 facts!!!
Nothing like seeing black men relate, grow and WORK together
@Mike C naw, I cant...its nothing like seeing black men working together. As a ppl, in united states...we have to work together. You're in total denial if u think white, Asian, Indians or Mexicans want to work with us....sorry sir.
"Grow" together? sounds gay.
@@alfgrebs6172 only a gay person would know that...
Damn when he talk about Biggie you really realize how long Shaq been around and relevant
"You gotta have 2 degrees to touch some of my cheese" thats real asf
Man that means Reef and Qir got no choice but to play and graduate college in 4 years
They don’t particularly mean intelligence but they do reflect discipline and dedication to completing a goal or completing something you started in general , which can only help in life 💁🏾
@A.A.Ron Davis you have a point but he's talking about at least showing evidence you working toward your own goal
Different world...Shaq played THREE YEARS of college!! Just wild...today we are looking at James Wiseman play a handful of games, super raw and green and he might go top 5...ridiculous
Players are more skilled 🤷🏽♂️ You see Zion and Luka...
@@ericks64 lol no scouts are just more dumb
@@ericks64 ja murant too
Players come into college way more skilled Shaq himself told you he wasn’t that good he’d get his ass bust in practice he needed those 3 years to develop ain’t nothing wrong with that some guys nowadays need to stay a lil longer but I can also understand the fact that the pace of the game increases injury and can fuck up your career so you gotta take the chance your given
Sam White You find me a Big man who moves as great as Shaq, great footwork, deft touch and high IQ and plays D like Shaq when they came out of College
The media trying to break up Embiid and Simmons like they did Shaq and Penny
Penny was way better offensively than Simmons
@@gregorycastillo4799 Penny top 5 PG imo Magic, Isiah, Stockton, Hardaway, Curry no injuries that dudes career would have been insane
Shaq just dropped a gem don’t sell the product, make them remember the product👊🏾❤️💯
The general insurance Shaq puzzle is solved
wylliamalfaro how 😁
@@marquez74100 He had the insurance in college. He said all the other companies was too high. Fast forward to today and now he's their spokesman.
Gotta love the diesel, most dominant ever, period
No one caught the advertising masterclass when Shaq said they fight over the Hennessy? No wonder he’s making multimillions after Retiring
Mohammed Hussain brilliance!! .... brother Mohammed
24:00 "man this actor.....he cold" 😂😂😂💀
“Ya’ll know the type of women I like!”😂😂😂
I smiled so hard at that part 😂
stephanie hall he love black women
Jason Edwards I think we caught on lol
Black is Beautiful!
He like ass
" These Big Bum's guarding Me"😂😂😂
he did Luc Longley and Wennington bogus LHH
All 4 rings was against "Big Bums" (Mutombo was old) that's how he got those 3 final mvp Awards
Shaq showed this guys so much love, it's amazing
I like seeing shaq like this. On TNT, charles always gets under his skin and shaq always comes off as petty. Great job Q & D!
He plays it up for entertainment sake. It’s stunning how people can’t tell the difference
Long Live Kobe Bryant. 💜💛
Shaq is one of my favorite athletes EVER Funny, Humble, Ambitious, Etc
I agree SHAQ is so entertaining to listen to I love that he doesn't take him self so serious
Cool guy I heard. My uncle has seen him at a Mason gathering
" i dont like people that talk fast"-shaq, facts
Quentin " I'll never forget" richardson
Rest in peace to Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and the other 7 people in the helicopter crash in Los Angeles, California on January 26, 2020.
Thanks reporter swagger
@@escobarrich8753 LOL Thank you!
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
@@bryanbump8859 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is going to be so epic with Shaq he's hilarious gotta love Him nobody could stop him in his prime at all I'm talking early 2000's Shaq💯💯💯💪💪💪
Diesel is highkey my favorite celeb. Dude is such a dope person. Hes really just a 7ft kid. 💪🏿💪🏿
Lmao damn Shaq's chair is the real mvp! Holding on for dear life
KremWsc LMFAOOOOOO
43:30 DMiles - One year we beat ya'll
Shaq - Yall ain't never beat us. You drinking
Q - yeah, he hit a half court and Maggette had 20+. You was in foul trouble
Shaq - AGAINST WHO?!?!? ALLAHKAWAANDI? 😂😂😂
BoBiggHHB 3 😂
That shit had me dead 😂😂
Lmao Bruh i remember fam nickname used to be Kandi Man back in the G. 🤣😭🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Never seen anybody mess up Olowakandi name that bad
I learned even more about Shaq after this....
I loved the way that Shaq talked about his father "The Sergeant" in this interview. He makes it seem as if he never allowed Shaq to get comfortable, nor would he allow him to patent his game like another player. I have nothing but respect for a man that teaches his son like this!
RIP Sarg!
"I don't like people that talk fast" - truer words.
The smoke boogie and now Shaq on knuckleheads
yup just came from watching the boogie one lmao
Right bruh shit is awesome
FifthElementRJ my favorite two CZcams series out rn
And now boogie just got waved lol
The 2 best podcast out right now 💯💯
"You gotta have 2 degrees to touch some of my cheese" -Shaq 2020
Respectable, but not necessary. Overrated degrees do help a bit, but at a cost of debt. Unless you are Shaqs kids you don't have to worry about debt.
@@rockmorales Shaq kids in debt? Never in this life
@@rashadmcdaniel957 Which is what I said
@@rockmorales lol you're probably poor do you realise if they get two degrees they will never have any debt hahahahahaha
@@tjthegreat7 Somebody doesn't know about student loans.
I’ve never met Shaq, but I really view him as uncle . The past 4 years I’ve been learning so much for him. Truly a VERSATILE, inspiration. MUCH LOVE DIESEL
Shaq really is a silly giant I couldn't stop laughing at him lip syncing in the beginning..
It’ll be great to see Penny Hardaway on here!
mane...yezsuh'
He’s a coach now he won’t be able to talk like he wants to 🤦🏾♂️
Ace Collin damn that is true, I didn’t even think about that 🤦🏾♂️
Hell yeah ... Tennessee Legend
@@acecollin1089 didn’t age well.
I watched every minute... It was a good watch, I love the chemistry SHAQ is a real G
gotta luuuh' SHaQ diezel mane...💪🏿
That Henny XO ain't no joke. Shit had me waking up in my brother's kitchen; 1 sock, my boxers, and a hoodie
Damn bro 🤣🤣🤣
😂
LMAO what happened after
lmaoooooo
😂😂😂😂😂
Hearing Shaq reference Hack-a-Shaq....priceless 😂
I can't remember the last time I clicked on a video so fast.
This was such a good listen so many gems were dropped.
Facts
I liked Shaq but now I love him more than ever
Shaq: Cute ass little freckle face looking boy!🤣🤣🤣
The Diesel,Superman,Shaq-a-Clause,Shaqattack, no matter how you say it...... It's Shaquille O'Neal
#Respect
I want to see a special episode of knuckleheads on all the smoke🙌🏼🙌🏼 shit would be epic man
Love to see two brothas from my home state showing that Midwest Integrity & class especially in the media aspect. Nice one Q & D! Respect from the Chi!
Shaq Need To Drop That Exclusive Biggie Verse And Quit Playing!!
I could listen to Shaq tell stories all day, great podcast fellas
Y’all got me checking my smoke alarm w/ that damn beep 😂😂
THANK YOU!!! Me too! Thought I was paranoid
Same here bro 😂😂😂 My ass was tweaking
It’s Shaq’s chair...his big ass is stressing that thing out 😫
This is one of the GREATEST INTERVIEWS EVER!!!! REAL MEN!!! REAL CONVERSATION!!!! THANKS FOR KEEPING IT REAL!!!! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
Knuckleheads the number 1 sports podcast in the world , pure Gems daily
"Allakawande!"Lmao the disrespect was too real!
Shits hilarious
😭😭😭
Who are they talking about?
@@askyourwhoremother3292 Clippers center Michael Oluwakandi...I can't spell his name 😭😭😭
Even before kobe passed shaq knew he was the greatest laker of all time and it's true
D Miles said " I felt I Denzel my shit" lol
Dawg 😭😭😭😭😭
Damn shaq just confirmed the lottery is rigged
The only people that win the lottery are freemasons which shaq is a part of. Shaq is the only celebrity to flash his freemason ring and proclaim he was a Mason on live TV. All celebrities are freemasons
Lion in the sun I hope u get better Ur sick
@@kingfadal4711 🤣🤣
nation what I said is true
Patrick Ewing (33) was the first major obvious rigged draft
This how you do it. Top 5 Podcast
43:21 “this ain’t our home damn game y’all got pictures in the hallways” lmfaoooooooo 😂😂😂😂😂
The #1 thing that stuck out to me from this is...... that Shaq cares about his people ! ....Good job MAMA AND DADDY ONEAL !
Bruh with this podcast’s guests and All The Smoke’s, seems like there’s some competition!! 👀🔥 ... But ima watch both lol
Ikenna Obufor it’s all love between both podcasts.
they both on point, these two guys tho were my dudes back when they had that and 1 cover
You KNOW its some competition lol
pinswade Facts! There’s some competition, but it’s very healthy and will only elevate the two!
They both fire. But I feel like Stephen Jackson be talking about himself too much.
1:02:35 Bro David Stern deadass rigged the Lottery for Shaq to go to Orlando 👀
He did the same thing for patrick ewing to go to the knicks
The ABA draft was rigged too. They just gave the draft pick to the team that would benefit the league most....like Lebron going to Cleveland
Derrick Rose to Chicago 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Tim Duncan to the spurs
Bron to the Cavs
Best sports podcast ever Rip Kobe 🙏🏿
Thanks for all those years Shaq! You a real one!
This was one of the best, especially to see how much down to earth Shaq is. Wow.
Please, get Ray Allen on this podcast!!!!
Short n sweet...Excellent job. Shaq is one of my favorite interviews. He always makes the interviewer feel comfortable. It flowed so naturally, I can tell Shaq likes both of you.
Its crazy, i had a childhood grudge for shaq. I ran into him here in new york with a few of my friends in high school. Saw shaw sitting on the steps of the trump hotel on 59th street. He didnt want anything to do with us. I still followed his career and loved his game but now as a adult and seeing all the good he is has done and how cool he seems. I tell myself now that he must of been having a bad day. Guess growing up is more to it then your age huh. God bless shaq! One of my favorite players of my life
Bruh, this is gold !!!!
He speaking facts tho.. Till this day Shaqs Dunkman is the 2nd most recognized player silhouette till this day.. 3rd would prob be Ken Griffeys Jr's Swingman.. Youngns born after the mid 80s only know Jordans Jumpman.. They don't remember Shaqs Dunkman and Ken Griffeys Swingman
Chris Gainey Nah bro I was born in 92 and I think my entire summer being 10 years old I wore hella shaq gear cause his stuff was affordable. You’re right tho, his silhouette is iconic in its own right.
Yeaaaaa no 😂😂 Shaq gear was accessible even in Walmart and Payless. I’m born in 98 and i know his logo.
@@deez9805 Born n 98 lol sit yo young ass the fuck down.. Lol Im born n 82..when Shaq came into the League n 92 he was Reebok n his first couple of shits were moving units.. Everybody knew that Reebok Dunk man logo... That's why I said if u weren't born n the mid 80s yall young asses wouldn't even know what I'm talmbout lol he did the Payless n Walmart shits later on n the early to mid 2ks bcuz he wanted to make more affordable shoes for lower income kids..he had Reebok on lock for abt 4 years from 92 to 96 before Iverson came n n 96 n crushed records with his first shoe Reebok The Question
Nah bruh I'm born in 94 and remember them shaqnosis and them shaq attacks
Yall boys caught the retros bcuz the original Shaq attacks n shaqnosis came out btwn 92 n 95..yall were to young to remember the original Jordan space jams.. Yall didn't even see him n Shaq actually play n em live so stop it.. I did lol
I LOVE IT , how Shaq always helps people out.
Honestly the best basketball podcast hands down. The way you guys interview compared to any of the other podcast like all the smoke for example is just so natural and authentic. Keep it up lads much love from New Zealand 🤙🏾
Never knew how Shaq feel into rapping...that is crazy!!
Maybe he fell into it
During the intro, they're talking about Michael Olowokandi, aka "Prince Akeem" ...
For real that needs to be a whole episode!
Bruh tell me you remember his nickname as Kandy Man, back in the G 😭🤣😭
Ra Tredeuce nah his nickname was trash man
@@Firstnameunknownfr Yeah, but now we know why he played like trash. The brother came from an elite, educated Nigerian family. His father was a high-ranking diplomat; so Olowokandi cared nothing about ball. He used ball like a tourism visa to see the United States ... "Q" said Olowokandi chose Pacific University to be close to the ocean, that when he should've been at practice, "He was walking the beaches nearby the university" ...
I’ve been to Stockton, ain’t no beaches out there
I’ve never been more captivated by a podcast before. Such wisdom from a legend
Shaq can do no wrong in my eyes lol 🙌🏾
Mam you are beautiful
Nice! Big Diesel was the one I was waiting for... shoutout to Knuckleheads from germany
I wish it was cool to wear shaq’s back in the day but you could go to Payless and get a pair for like 20 bucks but you would get roasted out of school
😂😂😭💀
Bro your so right. Great concept to get star athlete shoes for an affordable price but kids at school weren’t trying to hear that. My boy bought some Marbury shoes and got COOKED. Shoutout to Shaq though. Good dude
You should've wore the Reeboks
Don Draper I got my pair of marburys for $5 when I was younger. They use to hurt my feet so bad every time I wore them... I don’t even know why I copped them lmao
Mike Love Thyself would it be cool now as a retro thing?
I absolutely loved and learned from every minute of this podcast. What I wasn't expecting was my tears at the end. Very, very moving.
I've been telling people for years that I am available for debate or argument at any time my statement that, "Shaq might be the greatest man to have ever lived..."
I began saying this just to shock people based on my appreciation for his wide range of abilities, personality, thirst for knowledge, parenting, philanthropy, being well-grounded, respect for others, self-respect, personal excellence, leadership skills, attitude, intelligence, heart, soul, and tenacity. After having spent some personal time with him my thoughts were only confirmed.
Shaq oozes love, honesty, concern, and greatness. There is so much to respect, admire, and choose to emulate from this man who is also just fun.
This discussion featured three extraordinary, intelligent, passionate, and compassionate men. Thanks, guys. For me this was inspiring, motivating, and a lot of laughs.
Always a great time listening to Shaq!
Y’all need to link with All The Smoke one time 🔥
Network show.. plus Darius cold with the interviewing this episode. They killin
The man, The myth, The LEGEND. RESPECT!!
This was one of the best. Shaq was dope
Man, what a professional podcast! Great to see ex players build their careers in the podcast world. These guys and "All the Smoke" are killing it. Keep up the good work fellas!
Just when I thought All the Smoke was separating themselves by getting KG and Boogie, Knuckleheads bounce right back with Shaq 🔥🔥🔥
Lol Shaq reminds me of Randy Moss I play hard when I want too
I have so much respect for Shaq. Great player and person.
Shaq is so cold.
This is probably my favorite interview so far.
This is the 3rd time I’ve watched @ least %75 and that’s after I had already watched the whole thing prior too.
It comes on and I can’t switch it, I get caught up in it again.
& I hear I am again. Lol
I saw the note and said “BET!!!!”
Me 2. Forreal
Same af!
