At some point, you've gotta get the Lakers head coach on the pod!
After the finals and lakers champion
😂😂😂
That could be interesting 🤔
Lmaooooo
Lol
Sue Bird is cool af
How they say A’Ja ain’t marketable!? She’s goofy, entertaining but listen to her talk about winning and the culture they’ve built in Vegas, that’s an MVP right there. If there’s any positive from the attention that CC and Angel have brought to the WNBA, it’s the well deserved shine that A’Ja has received. And shoutout JT too, this really put his successful career in perspective and to finally have a ring on top of that, at such a young age is incredible.
@@nomad_wm lesbians are not marketable
Man you know why
@@blackout2430 A'ja isn't a lesbian. Also Sue Bird an actual lesbian is sitting right there and she's been marketable her whole career
It's a big man/woman thing. Shaq was the most dominant big man in the world a multiple time champion but he couldn't outsell Iverson in shoes. Damian Lillard, Drose, Ja morant haven't won sh*t but they'll outsell Gianis and Jokic in shoes and jerseys everytime. in a lot of sports, what makes people marketable is how attractive their games are, not how good the player is.
@@RelaxingfantasyStories I get what you're saying but using Shaq was a bad example. Shaq is one of the most recognizable names in NBA history. People didn't buy Shaqs because they were ugly and sold at Payless
Congratulations A'ja! 🎉 She's having an incredible year. If she doesn't win the MVP this season, some of these media voters have to be exposed.
JT is such a good dude... works hard, doesn't get in trouble, is a devoted father, and is now a Champion. So glad he's on the Celtics, we have such a great core of young players signed for the foreseeable future. Hopefully more Gold is on the way!
The beginning of a new era. Let’s get it.
Edit: Can Sue Bird host every episode? She’s incredible.
I think she has her own podcast could be wrong though.
I was about to write the same thing. LOL
Not to mention an absolute smoke show. Hubba hubba!!!
She is great she should host a lot of these
I was just thinking she was taking over the interview. Ask your question more succinctly and let the guests speak.
Sue bird a dawg at this she the way she went from talkin to Tatum about jrue then seamlessly went into Alysha Clark and asking a question to Aja was tough 🔥
Yea, she can be very thoughtful in this situation because she would know about both leagues while most NBA commentators are honestly not really looking at the women’s league.
Having conversation skills is tough 🤡🤡
It is definitely a forgotten art.
Congratulations JT and A’ja on the cover. Truly deserved🎉🙌🏽
Yes! And thank you Mom and Dad for giving me the gift of melanin. Jesus...
Jayson has done the most scoring and most winning the last 5 years then any other player in the league!!! It’s not close! 400 more points and 13 more wins!!!
TELL’UM AGAIN 👍🏾
Respect.
Do you have the link to this information? I know its true because I've seen it before.
He's done the most choking in the playoffs and needing his co-stars to carry him through his choking too. Man choked twice in the Finals averaging 37% shooting through 2 appearances. When his co-star is collecting the mvps when it matters, he def doesn't get credit like he's the man.
@@J-Huedoesn’t matter great players have bad games. Plus it’s not all about scoring, he actually assisted, rebounded, played D good and not to mention hit his free throws. Either way he did his part to get the championship!
Aja adding the 3 to her game is so dangerous
Jason, please add chapters. Makes watching longer videos much more enjoyable
agreed. tedious that producers still don't do this. i'm not interested in who started the ringer or off camera folks (though i'm glad they are good at their jobs). i'm here for bball.
I have made this comment on a couple videos and creators have different beliefs on it. Some creators believe a viewer may just go to the one tab they want to see and leave the video. If they don't list the segments then people will watch more of the content and maybe even like it on the way to seeing the part they saw a clip of.
YES
It’s almost a given in 2024
@@semi6544I hear you but you should give people the option. They could hear the segment they want then like and listen to more. If some people only come for the time stamp they want then why not just do it? What about the viewers experience?
@@ippimerawr -- I understand. I am a person who want the segments identified.
I am just telling you why some don't do it.
I do it personally. When the 2 hour vod of Gil's Arena comes out, I usually just go to the segments I want to see and move on.
I don't know the financial consequences of viewers who watch the entire video or viewers who watch 10-15 minutes out of 2 hours.
There is a reasoning beyond what is best for the viewer.
There is also what is best for the content creator.
Wow, so glad I got introduced to Sue Bird in this format! Sue, please do more of this, you're an incredible host! Funny, smart, charismatic, knowledgeable, great at keeping things flowing, insightful, and a smile to rival JJ's. I hope we get to see you do something like this long term.
The parallel between the Acesand the Celtics is actually crazy. Go to finals & lose, go deep into playoffs, lose heartbreaker, come back and win in dominating fashion. Interesting
Idt the aces have lost though they’re going for a three peat this year
@@imhotepnixon yeah they are a season or 2 ahead on that journey but they had the same path to get where they are at
@@lurkintomgaming397 oh that’s what you meant nvm my bad
Ms. A’ja Wilson!
Since her rookie year, she’s been setting her own stage that has set the stage for now!
And it’s only the beginning!!!
I love A'JA WILSON ❤✨.... she's phenomenal!
24:41
Sue: “Aja, what is your bread and butter?”
Aja: “aaghh-“
JT: “give her the ball”
Lol, man knows that’s up😅
Yep
Please, please, please have Sue Bird come back. She’s great!
Hell nahhhhh
Agree!
facts
JAYSON TATUM ALWAYS ANSWERS SO WELL AND ON POINT I LOVE HIS MIND
Sue Bird is GORGEOUS
We South Carolinians are proud as hell of A’ja Wilson.
She was born and raised there? I thought she just went to college there, awww she’s a hometown girl
Whole country is proud of her, my brother. Let’s get it!!!
Everyone in the 803 loves her
Love the start of the new era Sue is an amazing host. Suggestion I think you should try to interview the Lakers head coach. He would really be a great person to talk to
Sue Bird is my favorite WNBA player of all-time, Tatum is the best player on my favorite team in all of sports and Wilson is probably the future GOAT of women’s basketball. What an incredible combination.
Jayson is a Great interviewer credit to his mother for training him so is Aja
Sue Bird was amazing choice to plug into this channel. She, and her wife are roles models and I love that JJ has added her.
He and her wife?? End of the World & also language abused 😂
Ewww
lol clearly not because you took the time you come to the comment section and respond to my comment 😂
A'ja Wilson that is my girl!! Iconic ✨
I know nobody's replacing JJ but Sue is coming very close. Can she be a main stay?
100%, also no more Tommy please - nice guy but just does not keep the conversation flowing
@@fnikacevic I think he new his place, even addressed it at the beginning, he's not a professional basketball player and knows that the other 3 are all greats.
Old lady and the 3?
Sue Bird as the main interviewer on the channel would be awesome, super knowledgeable, has the respect of everyone, would be dope to see in the future.
Damn, absolutely stacked episode with the player guests!
Sue looking good. Respectfully
@@hangtime1111Good or bad ?
Her voice isn't bad. It's Aja that sounds like a man @@hangtime1111
she can get it
Self hating OJ SIMPson wannabes
@@blackout2430what?
I don’t get the Jason Tatum hate narrative. Literally never hear him speak about himself unless he has too. Otherwise, he always puts his teammates on a pedestal and gives them all the credit for the championship. Wasn’t a fan before but I like his attitude as a champion.
The JT hate makes me lose faith in humanity. its just sad, corny and asinine.
He’s an overgrown child Larping as Kobe Bryant even though he doesn’t even play like him. Nothing is original look at his celebration during the championship. All he was doing was acting like Garnett lol. I don’t dislike him. I’m just telling you why people don’t like him. He has no personality at all. He’s a robot. Super boring to listen to, so I don’t know why anybody would want to have a podcast with him.
NBA fans always have to have someone to hate on.
@@mezzb i think the issue here is other players have done it too or done it more (like Ant just said something recently) but those players get a pass or are even celebrated for their confidence while JT gets ridiculed for doing it a couple of times years ago.
I just don’t get it lol. But I think it comes from JT beating everyone for so long. This dude went to ecf so early in his career! So many teams got cooked by the Js so now they hate them. If we were losing, they wouldn’t even mention Celtics!
great job Tommy and Sue. JT and A'ja are big gets
So happy that they’ve done this. OLD MEN LIVE ON!
I wouldn’t mind seeing Sue interview more people. Loved this convo
Been listening to this pod at the start of the Bubble era with JJ and Tommy. I really feel like Tommy Alter has really fallen off the radar and I have always enjoyed and appreciated his well thought out questions, doesn't interrupt the guests and always acting respectful. Just wanna say Tommy Alter has done a great job as well and has become very underrated.
Sue .. she is the one “ perfect choice “
Crazy I was just watching a video yesterday on who was gonna be the cover congrats jt and A’ja y’all both deserve it more than anything
Stayed up all nignt irresponsibly, playing 2K24, clicked on this podcast and....i swear this game cant escape me 😭😭
Lmaooo I’m right there with you brother
I’ll clamp you😒
Lmfaoooo dawg 😭
Unemployeds
Today's actually my only off day of the week so just taking advantage of the times I have to play
amazing interview. sue bird as guest interviewer was unreal, loved seeing these three converse
Bam you got you one my boy. Salute!
Who’s his one ?
@@St0utAja
Such a great interview with two champs and legends! Congrats to Jayson and A'Ja 👏🏽🎉
omggg I saw this lineup and I'm hyped. its midnight, but absolutely going to watch this later
Glad this is more like a refresh than the end! Excited to see where it goes
Tatum is such a winner bro people mad he there star doesn’t care about how they win as long as they win. The only guy in the league like that
Nah not really people problem with Tatum, when yall say this it’s as if Tatum just wasn’t taking shots when it reality he was just missing a hell of a lot throughout the entire playoffs and those misses is why Tatum gets the hate he does
Lol he’s not the only guy in the league like that
@TheOnlyKhi_ my ninja...he led the BOSTON CELTICS, NBA CHAMPIONS, IN EVERY MAJOR STATISTICAL CATEGORY!!!!!! He led in POINTS, REBOUNDS AND ASSISTS!!! Do your research and PLEASE STOP writing GARBAGE on this fn internet!!! It makes US colored folks look HORRIBLE when a person from the HOOD, TALKS NON FACTUAL BULLSHIT MAN!
@@TheOnlyKhi_I don’t think missing shots should warrant hate. He still kept a good attitude and did what it took to win the championship.
@@asaps0cky378 hate comes to all of the top players in their league based off their performance and yeah I don’t think actual hate is ever reasonable in sports conversations but criticism is fine and that’s mostly what Tatum receives.
a'ja wilson is straight up having one of the greatest basketball seasons ever (both nba and wnba). she's so clearly on her way to becoming the WNBA GOAT.
I haven’t even started the video yet and I’m excited for this conversation. Excited to see what A’ja has to say. #thatgirl
this was great all around from everyone. thoughtful questions and responses.. i could watch dozens of interviews with Jay and A. keep 'em coming
I really enjoyed this episode. So much joy
I love A'ja so much!!! Great interview. and love Sue Bird!
We still locked in!
Jj reallly the coach of my fav franchise 😭
Sue Bird did Great with the interview 💯
Jayson Tatum Knees Shaking So Hard with Joy & nervousness 💯😅
That is anxiety.
Wow 😮🎉 tommy and jason taking over
I say just sub in Kyle Korver. Same difference. That pod with Kyle felt like JJ interviewing himself, more or less.
Tommy plug that Shirt, I love this for both Wilson and Tatum humble champs true role models. Sue is a great interviewer also
This episode really changed my view of JT, I always thought he was a overhyped, underperforming, corny guy, but he really seems down to earth, humble, and truly focused on winning.
You guys got this! You know we here for support! 🔥🤞🏽
Such a great episode guys keep them coming
Great Episode, Love this direction and conversation especially including the Ladies❤
Awesome interview! Sue was an amazing guest host, please have more of her!

🙌🏿Inspiring interview from both Aja and Jt I love how Aja locked in bringing that winning environment to Vegas🎉…. I appreciate when Jt spoke about people not being successful by themselves and the value of a good support system
Congratulations on the promotion guys!
Congratulations Jayson & Aja. You both were Excellent in this interview. Sue Bird your so Gorgeous and a very respectful lady. I love seeing you on shows like this. Tommy, your a solid individual. Keep it going in what you do. It's working. 🤗🌹💛🏀

Old Lady & The 3 works too.
Not surprised.
Sue da 🐐 just in general.
Everyone saying Sue is amazing... and they absolutely damn right
As a Carolina person with St. Louis family this 2K cover is a dream come true lol
Good to finally see Jason lol. So glad to see my girl A'ja with y'all, Sue back, and Tatum on here too 🔥
Luv some Sue Bird, Aja great show
The new era is looking good. I wish Sue Bird could be more involved with the interview, but I believe Jason and Tommy have something cooking for us. cant wait
More Sue Bird!! She's a fantastic interviewer
Talk your talk JT!
Love it🍀🏆
great work Sue Bird! I think you have a knack for this
Great video
You absolutely love to see it ❤❤❤❤
Sue is so good. Hope she can be on the pod more times
Such a good watch and interview! Thank you
Jason, Tommy, Richie...great show.
31:02 I love that a Team USA Coach acknowledged the ways Tatum's game has grown over the past few years... he was doing everything in these playoffs, and he did not seem to care how much he scored at all. He was happy to let Jaylen and other guys score at will because the defense was so focused on stopping Tatum. It was perfect team basketball, all that matters is the final score, none of the other stats matter. I'd take Tatum over guys like Luka, Edwards, Shai, etc because his game is much more well rounded. He can score 40, he can get 10 boards, 8 assists, and play fantastic defense with his size and length. He's not done getting better, either. We've seen how hard he works in the offseason, he has improved every year since he came into the league, especially this past year adding some muscle so he could finish through contact. Hope he can stay healthy, the sky is the limit for the Jays!
sue bird was a great host actually id really enjoy a podcast from her in the future
I love sue give him space
Sue can be full time enjoyed this episode !!
Great content
Sue Bird is so good man what an awesome interview
