- In this episode Michael and Brandon sit down to talk about Brandon's career, his favorite moments with Kobe, his transition into coaching and how it was the year he coached Michael, and a sobering situation that has led to Brandon wanting to create change.
I’ve been waiting for a Brandon Roy interview since he retired 😭😭😭
Brandon Roy was legit my favorite player growing up, he wasn't the most talked about but his game was so smooth and efficient! Glad you guys got to have a good chat on here!
He wasn't the most talked about but real ones know he was elite. He talked about chilling with Kobe in his 3rd year based on Kobes respect for him and he was geeking out but there were times when even Kobe didn't know what to do with him in the court before those knees went
Seriously. Could’ve been a Hall of Famer and was probably the best SG in the league after Kobe and D.Wade. Portland should retire his number since they don’t let anyone wear it anyways
@@silewis9396 yeah B-Roy used to give kobe & the lakers buckets
@@silewis9396 I remember back in the day he came back after a knee injury from the reg season to play in the playoffs and it couldn't have been more than 3 weeks apart.
He had lot competition at his position Ray Allen, Wade, Ginobbli
The most humble athlete I have ever met. I went to high School with B Roy. Humble, kind, and stayed out of the way. I am happy to see he is still doing well.
Such a legend. Sick you got to go to school with him
Damn finally a Broy interview!!! Much appreciated for this. Broy was the truth!
Same thing I said he in my top 5 favorite players
Been probably the most toss name out there on majority of the podcast … - all the smoke - - knuckleheads - - old man and the 3 -.. - no chill Gil -… literally everyone one of those I always see b Roy and t Mac names the most lol
Young dudes who didn’t watch this man play missed out. Grateful to have watched him play growing up as a blazers fan. Nate McMillan played him to the ground, but there was no one else in Portland at that time. He single handedly changed a franchise. Perfect blazer player. Him & Dame cut from the same cloth, if only the had the chance to play together.
I Love this Resemblance! Broy and Dame, now when I think about it, have similar Quality, I always feel those two never let anyone Rush them. They always seem Composed. Especially Roy. He was Composed on Court and same even behind the scenes he really is Laid Back personality. He played with class and Respect, not Dirty, he had a controlled Graceful game style
So I want to Play a 2K Dynasty, Fantasy Draft, In general How to build Around Roy?
He’s Slasher/Cutter, Mid-Range, Tricky and Methodical with his post moves.
@@projectworld4023you'll figure it out
Ron Artest and Kobe Bryant both at times have said Roy was the toughest player to guard. In 2010, Kobe was asked who was the toughest player to guard and he said: "Roy, 365, 7 days a week, Roy has no weaknesses in his game"
Love how B Roy doesnt want the kids to think its cool to get shot, so he rarely talks about it. Forgives the shooter and wants him to change more than to get caught, and has faith in Christ. Real man 🐐
Thats crazy first interview of B Roy since all these current and ex NBA players started doing podcasts. This man is a legend!!! Respect to MPJ for paying his dues!!!
People like to clown on Oden, but they forgot how dominating he was at every single level. He deserved that #1 pick. The dude was the freaking 2nd coming of Shaq. The guy was unstoppable on both side of the court
Injuries suck. Pre injury Oden was a monster
He wasn’t the second coming of Shaq smh he would have been decent without injury. Shaq was the first and only of his kind. He was once lean and skinny-ish and could lead a fast break.. oden was big but not as athletic nor dominant. And Shaq put up points oden was never a dominant scorer even in college.
Idk about the second coming of Shaq… but that dude was going to be special… people forget he killed the whole year in college with his left hand because is right wrist was messed up.
You're underestimating how dominant Shaq was. He was so dominant that the refs had to officiate him differently and let fouls go. If Shaq got the calls, half the opposing team would be fouled out at halftime.
He definitely wasn’t the second coming of Shaq lol
The B roy , lamarcus Aldridge and greg oden trio was one of the most legit trio ever , so mad they didn't get to play that much together
No
@@espectrodelayautja6320 when all three played together they were like 54-12 🤷🏻♂️ sooooooo
@@Dill_doh that was par for the conference at the time and not even reaching a western conference finals. I don’t do if and hype. They was never a threat out west.
@@espectrodelayautja6320 54-12 was for all 3ish? Seasons they were together. This wasn’t just for one season. We are being theoretical here, but if they (all three) played together I think the blazers would’ve been contenders for the 08-09 and 09-10 seasons 🤷🏻♂️
@@Dill_doh stop throwing fluff numbers out there. Regular season numbers didn’t hold up. They challenged none of the top dogs in the west with those regular season numbers. Really banking on regular season numbers lol. They was hype.
Brandon Roy is My Original Favorite Player of All -Time!
He is a Complete Basketball Player. Humble, and he knows he’s not Lebron’s Game Level, but he Never Conceded to anybody. Confident and Comfortable. High IQ, Graceful!
B ROY! Do more interviews! Start a podcast! We really love to hear about you! Seeing you brings back so many good memories!
It’s good to see nba players conducting interviews.. that’s actually what the fans want… most of us are tired of listening to reporters and media folk
You a real one for getting B-roy 💯
Gotta say this is one of the coolest interviews ive seen in a long time. The mutual respect is so palpable and the shared emotion is so earnest that it was impossible for me to not get captivated and sucked in.
B Roy was a quiet monster. He is definitely in the Great taken out by injury list with Penny, Grant Hill, D Rose
Agree with u but only DRose and BRoy were carrying teams . Penny one of my favorite ever but he got hurt once Shaq left . I would say tmac over hill
My favorite player growing up outside of MJ. Absolute killer.
Man this deserves millions of views. I am so happy you brought him in, B-Roy is literally my hero. He the one that got me into basketball as a Portland kid, I remember my dad picking me up during 3rd grade to go to Pioneer Square to see the parade of Roy/LMA/Oden.
I know Roy always been away from the media so this was huge. Crazy how articulate and amazing of a personality he is, I could hear this guy talk forever. Such a warm and articulate soul.
BRO GODDAMN Is our boy Brandon Roy. He was my favorite SG when he was still playing. Always picked him to built my teams on 2K. Brando mid game was nutty
“Brando mid game was nutty”. Your lingo is definitely that of one of the ‘cool kids’.
I use to put him at as my point guard on 2k he's game was so smooth ice cold
I’m building Right now!!!! WOW!!!! How do you build around him? You grab for his support like a big man for Pick and roll or You want him to have wing player support? Or something else
One of my favorite players in B. Roy. Mike has really good interviewing skills. Insightful questions and allowed for his guest to share without interruption. Continued success to both gentlemen.
My son played agains B Roy’s son in little league playoffs last season (6-8 year olds) he already got moves like his dad and he torched us!! 😳 My son played decent but they got blown out by 20.
Damn now I kind of feel if Roy wasn't you're coach we may of never had the chance to have the MPJ we have today. Crazy how things align. Shout out to Coach Roy!!
He was the #1 player in HS and would have been the #1 draft pick if not for his back problem. Roy admitted he just let him play his game.
Brandon Roy, Michael Redd and Danny Granger were three players that I watched a lot. Sad that injuries ruined their careers
All 3 were straight buckets 😮💨
Danny Granger getting hurt changed a lot in the NBA. People don’t realize he was the 1 on those Pacers teams and not Paul George.
I've been wanting to see a real B Roy interview for the longest. Good stuff Mike
I HAVE FOUND MY IDOL! Hearing B talk is Motivation to Workout and Be Better!
Glad you got B-Roy to make a public appearance after all this time. We miss him in Portland. Wish he was more available for podcasts like this, but I understand wanting privacy. Portland legend.
BRoy fav player all time! That Blazers era from 07-10 were my fave years. 08/09 was a special year. Really would’ve been special to see what could’ve been if everyone was healthy. Sky was the limit.
Everyone been tryna get a Brandon Roy interview (Knuckleheads, All the smoke) and you got it 🔥🔥🔥💪🏽💪🏽 Ya former coach ! B Roy was great
Bro thanks for the commentary and honesty. We are keeping you in our prayers keep on doing your thing, you have a lot of support
This is a blessing from the algorithm.... MPJ poddin' wit B. Roy..
Instant SUB
@22:00 was music to my ears... I always thought he was literally the most clutch player I've ever seen fr. People that really followed him know he was always money in the 4th quarter. I remember always watching Blazers games knowing we always make a comeback in the 4th thanks to B Roy being great everytime.
Awesome podcast bro!
Love seeing BRoy, guy was a beast
Blessings to you bro
Finally a Brandon Roy sit down 🙌🙏🏀
So awesome to hear from this guy, thanks for doing this! There are tons of Roy jerseys at home games to this day.
Another awesome vlog!! Thank you very much MPJ for doing these!!! MIZ
Also, love this MPJ -- I love you spreading the faith and being yourself, big on how you pick your guests *100*
BRoy was a great player and even a better person, thanks for sharing your life and outlook on life with us. #StayTrue
This guy is extra humble and ah realest..being from the northwest I understand his personality..I hate his career stunted in the worst way! He’s still ah LEGEND one of the top 4 greatest 2 guards ever hands down!! Salute to B ROY‼️💯
Haven’t started the video, but I’m gonna like it because I KNOW IT’S GOOD, it’s Brandon Freakin’ Roy y’all. He’s my personal HOFer. Don’t care what anyone says
huge B Roy fan ......keep doing ur thing Mike ur 1 of the next greats
Great chat! Love how articulate B Roy is and coming from someone who is similar age and stopped playing due to knee issues (albeit at a much lower level), I completely agree with him about taking care of your body more.
BRoy was my biggest influence when it came to basketball!! Much needed man!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 you never know what broy got going on because he’s so private man!! BRoy the 🐐
It's good to see Brandon again, he was an outstanding player.
Awesome to get B-Roy on your podcast. He was a top 3 talent in the NBA in the early 2000s. Seems like a down to earth dude.
Just bought me another MPJ Rookie PSA 10. Love this dude!!!
You got the podcast guest that all the sports pods have been tryna get for a while man. Amazing interview.
MPJ, if you're reading this, I'm a long time Nuggets fan and you're my favorite player in the league rn. Love this podcast 👑.
Dope interview mike thanks for bringing Broy out his shell.. once upon a time him & Dwade was fighting for the 2nd best 2 guard in the league
Great podcast MPJ! Big fan, glad you're doing this
Man I already know this gonna be good broy was a dawg sadly injuries derailed his potiential but glad to see him mentoring and coaching great basketball mind.
I was listening to the pod but the quality was tough. This is SO much better
OMG!!! B Roy!! My fav player! I used to wake up at 2 AM to watch him, Aldridge and Oden... So sad it didn't work... Greeting from Brazil!
I remember having B Roy’s signature Nikes when he played for Portland. I’m going to see if you can still find those online!!! They were great for hoop.
The GOAT. Period. Forever.
Favorite player of all time
Mpj so happy your doing this 🔥
Great to hear B Roy speak!!
You won the podcast world with this guest
My alltime fav player! B Roy.. love from Perth Australia.. fuck these injuries..Roy still one of the greats!
Haven’t seen B Roy in a cool minute. He was a killer! 🏀
Good Job Mike. Simply Put 💪
Who else remembers when he took flight on the whole squad in the all star game but blew the dunk? I believe it was an Oop to himself! Maaan… Ths was tooo legit! Thank you!
That's my guy.. Brandon Roy.. Great Player!! All-around game..
Great Interview! We gonna need a part 2 Mike! 💪 gotta talk about his 52 point game, & Minnesota T-Wolves! Oh, & what if Portland Calls Asking him to coach the blazers? The Future is exciting, keep up the good work Mike 🙏
As a Kobe fan, b Roy was the only player I feared seeing in the playoffs
The coldest #7 of my era for sure. 😤
Glad I took time out of my day to listen to two of my favourite players sit down chop it up and reason with each other. Next level respect for Brandon Roy cool headed human being giving back to the community and MPJ never knew this dude could be so down to earth. God bless everyone of yall souls any one reading this in Jesus mighty name Amen.My story not his-story. Peace and blessings kings and queens. Truly a blessed interview a lot of wisdom and guidance. Moving in the direction of growth and staying in my lane. 🙏🏾
@Dragica Andrejevic Its just the name of the game. Trust the process Denver knows what there doing. MPJ has gotten a great return on his investment of becoming a professional basketball player. When healthy and playing MPJ is arguably top 30 talent pay the man he talented and worked hard for it. He can use the money to set himself up for something after basketball. An athletes career doesn't last forever so it's important to be an entrepreneur. Michael Jordan, Shaq, Magic Johnson all the greats have invested there money outside of basketball as well. MPJ is lucky to have such a blessed contract he can do a lot of good things with his money. Give back to people and community that helped to raise him. Hopefully he can use his money to impact change. I hope and pray the most high continues to give this man the right counsel.
B Roy Babii, nice hearing his story, followed by great questions
This was great. Thank you
B Roy was one of my favorite players. If his knees did not fail him early in his career he would have been a long term beast in the league.
2 of my fav players
Brandon Roy was amazing as a kid I really thought he was gonna be best player in league at one point man was amazing
Any Kobe story is good but from broy, it makes me smile :)
I subscribed!!! You’re great at this and this podcast is great!!!
This deserves more views
B Roy was a superstar in that he loved and thrived in pressure situations
BRoy was a savage! Favorite Blazer of all time!!! BRoy, Sheed, Dame, Drexler & Rod Strickland.
Great interview !!
Great segment💛
One of my favorites players
Finally got to hear from b-roy!
1. Kobe
2. Roy
3. Manu
4. Wade
5. Ray
My top 5 during their era.
Porter is my favorite young player
A successful & ambitious man once said you can tell alot about a man by how he plays the game. Top 2 hooper fav hooper for me. & 1 of my favorite people. Always seemed wise beyond his years. We crave more BRoy, but I get him being private because I'm the same.
Very nice interview, good job mike
Dope interview. Melo was class of '03. Also, when B.Roy mentioned Moesha, Michael had deer lights.
Damn never really heard him talk before definitely seen like a solid guy and I didn’t even know he got shot either crazy
as a kid from seattle Brandon Roy was like michael jordan to me
MPJ's a natural interviewer
That was a rough stretch in Portland, Roy getting hurt and GO having issues too, it was like daggers constantly over a couple years that still felt like the Jordan curse coming true over and over.
One of my top 5 basketball players of all time. Imagine if B.Roy played with Lillard.Dang that would be crazy!
Nice stuff and Amazing questions MPJ
this was a great interview
Brandon Roy the 🐐
BRoy man. We miss you brother.
Great Interview
B looking like his Pops. Much love to both of y'all.
BRANDON 😩!
Mannnn miss seeing this dude playing!
