Vincenzo nah he needed that L from KG
Kobe was damn near doing that to Philly in 95-96.... I mean, the 76ers sucked during that time but still
KD when he was in college torched Team USA. I think that's the closest to what you're referencing

HIGHSCHOOL AUSTIN RIVERS WAS NEXT LEVEL 🔥
Amezy hell yea
FACTS
Until he got to the next level lmao
If he was next level then what the hell was John Wall? Kyrie? Dame? Harden? Derozan? Comparing them in HS to Austin rivers isn’t even a thing, if he was next level then they were no mere mortals.
@@jamesonedwardsii4943 HOW OLD ARE YOU CAUSE IT WAS ALL GOOD UNTIL YOU SAID DAME SMH DAME WAS A 2 OR 3 STAR RECRUIT HE WASNT EVEN A MCDONALD'S ALL AMERICAN COMING OUTTA HIGHSCHOOL YOU WOULD'VE KNOWN THAT IF YOU'VE DONE YA HOMEWORK YOU JUST TOSSING OUT NAMES LIKE ITS FACTS I'll PUT (HIGHSCHOOL AUSTIN) UP THERE WITH ANYBODY! HE WAS SUPER NICE IN HIGHSCHOOL GO LOOK AT HIS MIXTAPES
Lmao gotta love KG! “I was a draaaagon!” 😂😂 much respect !
KG reminds me of Charlie Murphy with the great stories of what we never knew about ☺️.
"Do I spit fire on him ?" - KG lmao 😂😂😂
“Man he giving Perk the BINESS”
Lolz
Why is this comment not highlighted more
Perk so slow lol
High school Austin would give anyone buckets he’s still underrated asf
FACTS
Western_African _King and would still give anyone buckets 🤷🏽♂️
Western_African _King I’m talking about right now
Actually he was ranked number 1
Yeah I used to see clips on Austin in high school . Dude was sick .
“I said…Check?” 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t even lie Austin Rivers definitely in the top 5 of toughest hoopmixtapes ever. John Wall and Aquille Carr had good ones too
I knew Austin deserved to be in the league, but I didn’t know he was THAT good. I think this just goes to show that once you get to the league that is proof of how amazing you are, the rest of it is how you fit into the systems, right fit, sometimes politics and sometimes what they call “luck” but I would say purpose.
PS whenever Kevin Garnett is in an interview it is always 🔥 without fail. he’s like the number one guy I’d love to talk basketball with lor even just listen to him talk basketball with his boys.
Kg one of the best story tellers I’ve ever heard lol
You can always see everything he’s saying
1:32 “I said check?”😂😂😂
"i said check?" 😂😂😂😂😂
Thats dude daddy over there. I gotta be careful how I let this dragon out.
Pause
Aye nice to see an interviewer letting the ticket and Allen talk and tell they story shout out lol
People laugh about Doc and Austin relationship...Daddy raised a kid with confidence he needed to survive and thrive despite being extremely privileged against "Dragons"...he may come off as an ass on the court, but he competes even against his Dad...love it!
🗣🗣🗣🗣 all facts
True. It isnt easy raising a privileged kid with a "go hard" attitude. And it isnt easy BEING the privileged kid working for your spot.
Facts Austin definitely earned everything he’s accomplished on the court! But mannn off the court I don’t vibe with him at all lol
"I almost got up and slapped him" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
KG is a great storyteller
People calling Austin Rivers a bust forget that there's only 400 active players in the NBA lol
Kg said “I’m a dragon” lmao
1:30 The look on Tony's face 😂😂😂😂
KG’s NBA stories are top tier 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
id literally pay to listen to ticket talk lol!
Sanders Moody Check out All the Smoke from last week. Him, Matt Barnes, and Stephen Jackson are entertaining as hell together
Am i the only one in tears over KGs insistence and constant mentioning that he is a dragon?
KG might be the reason Austin isn't an All-star lol #dragon
*Drag em
Wilt Chamberlain GOD of NBA when austin rivers was on the wizards he didn’t play good neither its not james harden fault its austin rivers fault for not stepping it up
One of the best stories ever.
KG: remember how he shot it?
Tony: Haha ya
KG: no, NO he scored
Tony : yup
KG: wait, hold on, he dunked it!!!!
Tony: 😑😞🤥..........
😂😂😂
KG also said he made Austin rivers check it. But then Austin rivers dunked it.
Sooo idk who had the ball 1st lol
@@shakespeare3543 he did he gave him back the ball tho
@@shakespeare3543 KG missed his first possession then it was Austin ball. That’s when Austin dunked it and KG laced up. Game time after that
Lmfao he slapped Tim duncan across the head
Im a dragon, im a dragon lol
Man Austin used to give my highschool 40 every time give us our first lost of the year and we beat russel harden Paul George a lot of nba all stars easy
Coach B you must of played for Westchester
Winter park baby 407
I’m a dragon 😂😂😂😂
I thought Austin Rivers was the second coming watching him play high school bball when I was a kid
🔥🔥🔥 interview
Dude said "austin rivers?" Acting austin rivers wasn't cold in highschool n college. Idk where it all went but young austin rivers was a problem
Real competition is what happened.
Different and upgraded competition... and different role.
x310x310x more like bad development.. it can ruin a player
Edson Charlotin New Orleans was a terrible destination. They were playing a 2nd rounder over him at one point
I never thought as good as he was in college that his game would translate to the big leagues.
10th grade was Austin Rivers’ prime.
I love these types of stories.
Love the new Interviews
The coolest part is. KG said the exact truth. Getting dunked on by a HS kid. N told it how it was. That's wassup. TA one of my faves of all time too. That 08' Celtics team was so dope. stacked. n super chemistry.
I love when KG tells a story... That is who drink some beers with and let the stories roll.
"Then i almost slapped his ah one game" 😂😂😂😂😂 spoken like he is originally from memphis
KG IS ONE OF THE BEST STORY TELLERS EVER IN THE NBA
Man that’s a great sound bite from a legend KG!
Austin confidence in high school was crazy! Boy was a walking highlight reel!! He came out too early smh
I agreed could have used another year play more efficiently
Another year in college would’ve done him so well.
Why Tony Allen sound like Dababy
Pooka DaBaby sounds like him
Facts
He doesn't
KG….I WAS A DRAGON. LMAO
OGs recollecting memories is hilarious 😂
Bro the stories from people who are retired from the nba be sounding like movie scenes 😂😂😂
@1:30 🤣🤣
Fast forward to today, after the trade/release. After the 10 day, and after the huge performance vs POR to help DEN go up 2-1. Wow.
On that KG story time binge
He didn’t slap Antonio mcdyess tho 😂😂😂😂
I can't believe we talking bout Austin Rivers. Cmon man -Chuck
Austin Rivers in HS was one of the best HS mixtapes still to this day idk why the league broke him. Like Adam Morrison with the zags just dunno why they couldn’t transition it
Adam Morrison was drafted #1 by Jordan. He couldn't live up to the hype.
The doc interviewed brought me back here 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Had to come back for the big perkins impression 😅😂😂😂😂
KG a real story teller ! 💯
Angriest/most volatile team of players put together from that era with two options for each position
1. Allen Iverson + Gilbert Arenas
2. Kobe Bryant + Latrell Spreewell
3. Ron Artest + Kevin Guarnett
4. Rasheed Wallace + Zach Randolph
5. Shaquille O'Neal + Alonzo Mourning
These guys scrimmaging...... FML
Ian Young maaan you had something going until you said Alonzo smh
@@versatillion15 Alonzo was a no crap taking animal. Find me another centre as committed to blocking shots regardless of the outcome and with the same mentality and physique. Alonzo was always ready to have a fight if needed. Tough as nails especially after coming from his kidney operation to do what he did. Who else is mean enough? Glad you liked the list overall.
Ian Young I would replace Alonzo with demarcus cousins
@@versatillion15 Demarcus Cousins isn't from that era. If he is he's barely in the league.
Ian Young my bad I didn’t see that you said that era. Ben Wallace over Zo?
"he rolled the ball" lmfaoooo i am just picturing the ball rolling real slow hitting KG long ass feet lmaoo
Side note i also remember A. River hoopmixtape and when I was hooping trying to model some of my game of his , he was def that guy .
Austin Rivers' confidence was through the roof in High school.
Austin Rivers my favorite player right now very underrated
How you feeling presently 💪🏾
KG is a great story teller.
Big Ticket has been one of my favorites from the moment he came in the league with the house mob! 💯
Austin had one of the coldest high school mixtapes
Exactly why some guys need 2-3 years of College, Austin needed 2 to work on FT shooting and being able to fill in as a 1 at times.
KG TELL THE STORY LIKE YOU SUPPOSE TO TELL IT HE NEED HIS OWN SHOW UNFILTERED PLEASE 😂😂😂😂
NBA players tell the best stories idk what it is
Love KG man 🤣🤣🤣
Kg has the best stories
Bro said " did you ever really slapped some people"?
Austin Rivers low key has game . He has become a role player in this league , but everything KG said about him is true . He was a beast in high school watching clips of him on balls life . He just has not found a place his niche in the league yet . I know he been in the league for a while , but some guys find it a little latter than others . Maybe he can find it like Lou Williams and Jamal Crawford as a Vinny “Microwave “ Johnson type 6 man off the. bench that can score bunches in a short span . I truly think he can do that . He just has to fine the right team and system that will allow him to do that .
No lie Austin Rivers highschool mixtape was sick. Tyreke Evans, Brandon Jennings, Derrick Rose, John Wall had some of the best
Great story.
This shows that NBA is all about opportunity. High school junior Austin rivers was giving Boston Celtics Paul Pierce WORK. That’s why I like Austin rivers cuz I know he’s very skilled but doesn’t have that opportunity to show it to the world
Even if he was made a teams number one option it doesn't mean he would be getting buckets. Much harder to score with a whole team targeting you.
Kemet Trill True however in a 1 on 1 coverage he could easily get buckets on anyone
Yea his first step is crazy
One thing i can say about Austin is that he aint scared
Kg such a good story teller lmfao
🐉 This is probably my favorite basketball story! 🐉
Fire
This is the PG version. i could only imagine the shit KG was really saying as he was beating his ass 😂😂😂
Right I need to see a whole video of this lol
When KG smacked Tim Duncan, that solidified who was better between him and Duncan
Duncan
Fuck kg
@@imcelestial1417 No Fuck you... KG was a fuckin Beast. You put him on that Spurs squad (competent management) and they would have won several chips.. you don't even know
Tyler Ramsey KG
@@neanderthal599 agree to disagree. Kg was on a team where he was the star. Duncan was a star but shared the spotlight and had a coach who pretty much is responsible for load management. Yet he still has better numbers
I met Tony Allen a bunch of time while I worked in the worst mall in Massachusetts lolll. Watertown mall aka Arsenal mall, he would come in my store and by a beanie, look around and leave lol. One time he said “nice kicks mayne” I was like huh? Who me?! Lol thanks!! He was one of my favorite players because he was such a dog on Defense. I love defensive players, it’s one thing that gets overlooked in the NBA . It’s easy to shoot a couple jumpers but let’s see how many stops you can get vs the elite scorers!
I played against Tony when he was at Wabash Valley…JUCO days
You check 😒💯💯💯🤣🤣
#CelticsThoseWereTheDays
almost slapped him LMAO!
I love KG but he slapped Tim Duncan cause Tim was bussin his ass
Tim used to kill KG. Probably the only big man to dominate KG. KG always wanted to fight Tim because he couldn't guard him.
Im in Central FL n Austin Rivers used to go BONKERS in high school. packed out games
I said “Check?” 😂😂😂
This rec 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🔥🔥🔥😭😂
777
Did KG ever do an episode of Hot Ones or Drink Champs?
He’s my favorite storyteller
W lightskin 💪🏾😂😂😂
austin had so much swag in HS
