It’s a tradition to go on an open court binge once a year
Ikr??
I wish there was more of this, but I guess this is it.
For nights when I can't fall asleep I come here and it puts me to sleep, the equivalent of childhood bedtime stories. lol
Interestingly....
Shaq was drafted #1 (1992)
Isaiah was drafted #2 (1981)
Kevin was drafted #3 (1980)
3D was drafted #4 (1990)
Charles was drafted #5 (1984)
Amazing!
That 84 draft was LEGEND!!
Isiah
@@soundsscenesbymarcus5981 I didn't realise Chuck was in 1984. So they had The Dream @ #1, Jordan @ #3 and Barkley @ #5
@Not Robot 3D is a legend. Did you not see his speech at the basketball camp?
@@shyyou93 and #16 John Stockton
I swear I could watch these guys talk for 10h
10h?? thats short. make it every day
I made a playlist with 40 full episodes added in the right order:

There's just something about listening to vets talk about their passion and how it was in their heyday that's so captivating, honestly I could listen to these oldheads for days on end😅
I’m not trying to be that guy but if Kobe was here then it would be amazing all I gotta hear is Shaq and kobe
Totally agree
I'm by no means an Isiah fan but his performance in game 6 of the 88 finals after rolling his ankle is 1 of the greatest sports performances I've ever seen.
Agreed
you must have never seen Willis Reed against the Lakers broke my heart but what a gutsy performance
I’m a zeke fan & if he was healthy for game 7 they win the chip 88 89 & 90 3 Pete
@@oldermusiclover In retrospect, if a player in today's game, 2024, gets his thigh muscle torn, he's done for the season, Willis Reed still played through it embodying the desire to be great. Now for players, an injury would make them happy because they got an excuse to party around with their boys. Nobody plays through a minor injury anymore since these kids are spoiled af. They're like, oh I feel sick let me get some load management, but you'll see them celebrating on the bench, like dude you got an ankle injury but you can jump and celebrate?
@@johnpaulgonzalez9016 I have to agree in many ways but I also think because they are making ubsurded (sorry about the spelling) amounts of money coaches and owners are much more careful about what happens to them in fact the money and the No team loyalty by players and owners(as far as cities go) is what has turned me off from pro football basketball and baseball used to be a huge fan of all three and had my favorite teams I routed for all the time
Really like Chuck in this one. He's so honest with himself and knows exactly why he lost. I guess that's what life is like when you never win one, lots of self-reflection. Reggie was the same in one of the earlier episodes
Terry Stotts I feel like Chris Webber is like that too and although he won one on the way out I feel like Gary Payton is like that too
Chuck doesn't play favorites even to himself...he's real
when did webber won?
csaba dobos he meant Gary Payton it’s just the way he wrote the sentence it looks like he meant Webber
It pains me to see that people make fun of chuck for not winning a ring, particularly Shaq one of my favorite players. Chuck didn’t had enough help to be champ.
I didn't realize that Isiah and Kevin went back that far. McHale giving advice to Zeke and slapping hands at Center court at the end of the '88 EC Finals is a classic moment.
Jason, classic moment. kevin had been there several times, to the finals. he was telling isiah dont just be happy to be there. go there and win it. they almost did.
paul thomas thye got robbed in 88 finals
Blue Planet phantom foul on Kareem despite the broken ankle game
it is mesmerizing listening to Isiah Thomas talk. Its just wonderful. The guy is a story teller
That part where he's talking about having the other team down and being prepared to just rip their heart...man, that's just so real and gives an understanding of why these guys are so great. Shaq knew.
Isaiah Thomas is just a bitter hateful guy
@Jeffrey: I don’t know why you would say that as Isiah has matured more than most men and some of the most outrageous things he did as a player hurt him the most. It cost him a spot on the Dream Team and he knows it.
34:40 Charles talking about losing, everyone's feeling it, even Shaq is not making fun of him, everyone's been there. Real talk
I think they've all had that feeling. Isaiah lost a game 7 finals in '88 (and after that terrible call in game 6) so he knows. Shaq for swept in a finals and lost to my favorite team ever the 2004 Pistons in a "5 game sweep" so he knows it. Dennis Scott lost in the finals with Shaq and McHale lost in the finals. So I think they all feel it and empathize with Chuck because he never won one.
Still be hilarious if the Big Fella had hit him witta "I don't know you. I don't wanna know you. I don't like you."
Honestly one of the most insightful and heartfelt moments I have seen in something sports related.
@@Balonious_Crunk Chuck is on another level when it comes to basketball commentary. I've gotten to appreciate him more and more as I've gotten older. He doesn't need to be a total loudmouth saying outrageous and contrarian things to get people's attention.
L
That moment zeke started talking about hes moms ! emotion
Right?! All in the feels. That's super dope!
Yes that was the best moment other then Isaiah talking about his mother when he was inducted into the hall of fame. Wow.
Even better was Dionne Sanders talking about his mom and how he created P.R.I.M.E. Time, his altered ego.
Wow, this was the best episode of the series.
When you hear what goes on in an athletes mind and heart, especially then, when I felt the athletes loved the competition with their peers more than the building of super teams.
To me Kevin McHale is the absolute best power forward ever. He could not be stopped in the block. He had to down shift his game for Larry Bird and Robert Parish. A man of a 1000 moves. If he wasn’t hurt, he should have been a top ten player if all time in my opinion.
I know he didn’t have the numbers, but he could not be stopped. And if the medical technology is now, and the way they travel now, and the way the game is so soft now he would dominate.
Time stamp.?
@Sid Michael It starts at about @5:15. It really is a beautiful story; I feel great for him and his mom.
This should be on EVERY WEEK can't get enough of this!
Jose Cordero tf
I Agree.
It’s really good but too expensive.
@@gobot581 how expensive?
Isaiah probably the most misunderstood player, I was not a big fan of him before. Now, it's the complete opposite, I love this guy. His smile and storytelling ability are infectious
Misunderstood from who? …even by you not being fan before……
When Chuck talks seriously and stops playing around so much with Shaq, I enjoy hearing him talk
When u look at Isiah Thomas you’d think he’s a small guy 😂😂😂 the man is still 6’1 but only hangs around giants 😂😂😂
Dude, he is no where near 6'1". It is clearly noted and recently admits to lying about his height. Now, the other lies he has not to yet
@Nico Toscani
He had lifts on😄.
Dude, I was next to him and he was not 6'1".
I'm 6'4 1/2 but with basketball shoes on I'm 6'6"
He look like he 6'1. It ain't like he lied about being 6'8 or something.
Unless you measured him yourself then he's 6'1
I love how much reverence Zeke has for McHale's Celtics. It must have meant everything to finally beat them and go on to the finals.
Isiah grew up as a huge Celtics fan also.
You just feel for Chuck right here. He deserved to be a champion, he just wasn't blessed to actually win one.
He has a gold medal, many champions dont have that
@@OnlyOneBoomer not only that, he was the top scorer on the team too
@@ILOV3BUTT3R a lot of people seem to forget how good Chuck was because of his funny sports analyst persona from recent years.
@@loungekiller 100% agree Chuck had a game in the 93 WCF where he had over 40 points and over 20 rebounds chuck was a beast
@@OnlyOneBoomer i>ii up
Painful to hear Chuck talk about the finals loss
Charles and that suns team was Jordan and the bulls hardest championship to win
I wish he won one🏆still one of my TOP TEN PLAYERS......CHUCK BROUGHT FLAVOR N EXCITEMENT TO THE GAME.... CHAMPION IN MY EYES FOR SURE SURE..🏆🏆🏆🏆
@@urfavoritebarber2573 no it was Charles by himself againist pippen and Micheal 😭
It really is. If there is one person who deserves a ring it's Charles. He just happened to come across a slightly better team with a slightly better star. People forget how great the bulls were in defense
@@jspi04 Charles had Kevin Johnson who was a beast.
Isiah talking about his mum never getting an education because of the level of racism in the country to then collecting one for her son and having that moment could bring a tear to a glass eye
Yeah that got me too
As bad as a GM Isaiah was... damn, he's such a good speaker. I'd listen to him for ages.
He did draft Tracy McGrady out of high school when a lot of teams really didn't have Tracy McGrady high on they're bored.
Totally agree
@@pp3k3jamail his knicks stint?
@@RafsanS15 the Knicks had bad GM before Isaiah Thomas remember Scott lyden he's the one who handed out God awful contract before Thomas got there then the Knicks had Donnie walsh who stunk.
I'm not a Knicks fan but the Knicks haven't had a good GM since Erine Grunfeld who there from 1991-1999, and Erine Grunfeld was solid as the GM with Milwaukee bucks from 2000-2003 but he suck with Wizards after he left the Knicks and Bucks.
@@pp3k3jamail i mean zeke gave Eddy Curry huge contract that made NY didn't have solid future pick, Marbury & Houston didn't meshed well. Also knicks had payroll that twice from salary cap
Isaiah makes this show so much better. Love when he puts his input in
Shaq wasnt averaging no goddamn 36 and 20 against Detroit 😂😂
😂😂😂
😂 no but he was avg 27 and 11, he also had a game in that finals where he had 36 and 20
Pistons strategy was to let him get his and lock down everyone else, and it worked well. They could throw Ben Wallace and Rasheed at Shaq without doubling and Kobe wasn't mature enough to take what the Pistons were giving them.
@@KZ3fps or he was mentally and emotionally not there. Imagine going through a rape trial and everyone on the team hating you. On Kobe and Shaq's 1v1 interview Kobe admitted on being selfish that series.
He had 36 and 20 in game one
God I’m literally about to cry hearing that his mom was never allowed to get educated but she got to walk across the stage for Isiah, god damn, I couldn’t imagine the feelings Isiah had going on.
He sounded like he was about to choke up
You are right
Why didn't Isiah just go to his graduation? - Vince Carter, probably
@@RicardoAGuitar he was too busy making million dollars deals. So he had his mom go for him and made many dreams come true with that action
That was such a wonderful thing for his mother to experience. Isaiah Thomas was competitive af, and he is also equally a really good dude.
D Scott has always appreciated playing with Shaq and Penny...no ego, just loved playing with 2 all time greats!!
That's why I like D Scott. He knew his role and his place. Wasn't tryna be something he wasn't like Kenny sometimes lol.
I was an absolute fan of the Bad Boy Pistons. Learning more and more about Zeke over the years has made me an Isiah Thomas fan. That story he told about his mother is amazing!
Isiah talking about “the pass” is amazing. Used it to motivate himself to become a future champion. That’s how you do it kids!
shaq is changing his stories like, every single time, every one of them.
yeah but it's always fun lol
Got to keep it fresh. Why tell the same story twice?
Never seen so much emotion out of Chuck cool to see
Charles breakdown of his final NBA Final's game is cruuuuuucial... love the breakdown.
Chuck definitely has a great pathos to his storytelling which balances out his humour.
I used to hate Isiah but after devouring these videos I love him now.
He aint a saint but damn the disrespectful and media assination he got in those years is just sad.
He has a ton of heart and played like it. A lot of the same characteristics Jordan had but was villianified for it.
@@JonathanWaterbury The biggest of facts. Most of the great ones have similar personalities.
love listening to isiah
@@JonathanWaterbury fax, jordan could’ve been the evil guy had the media put that narrative on him. they were both extremely competitive guys that were willing to do anything for glory
I can feel isiah's pain telling the story about the loss to celtics and the ankle injury
Man I miss open court. Shit was so dope
TNT should bring open court back.
Horace guarding you, Scottie coming over hard to double, and the Black Cat playing free safety to swipe at your pass. How's that shit legal 😂
Everyone references MJ, Scottie, Phil and the Triangle Offense but at times, the offense would get cold or guys would give Jordan the ball, stand around and watch which obviously isn't good for an offense predicated on ball movement and spacing. The real Bulls, and any true basketball head that saw the dynasty in real time knows that team always fell back and relied on its defense which at times was so suffocating, that teams had a rough time just getting the ball over half court. It was called the "Doberman Defense" and when the Bulls turned it on, good luck.
This is the first I heard Barkley talk about this!
Good stuff! Wish he had won it all! Like seriously! That was a good series!
I really feel for chuck in this
They need to bring Magic and Kareem, Larry Bird and McHale, and Isiah and Bill Laimbeer in the panel and talk about those runs in the 80s. That would be an epic show.
Joseph hmmmm I never thought of that! Great idea
Bill Laimbeer is a Great Coach In the WNBA I don’t think he has time for these stuffs
Joseph then laimbeer and bird start throwing hands 😂
Yeah, I'd probably say bring Dumars instead of Lambier lol
Larry Bird and Bill Laimbeer in the same room? Not happening.
Barkley's testimony about losing is incredibly powerful
Isaiah always has the best stories!
The way mchale looks at Zeke when he’s talking is like a proud father
I don’t know how I’ve never seen this episode. I love stumbling on unseen open courts. Ultimate gift.

@@Slimebal_7 Some episodes flat out don't exist anywhere, which is seriously annoying.
Charles is a natural...born for this
Isiah Thomas is such a graceful speaker man, he should be on all open court episodes, his stories and knowledge are amazing!
Stories are tainted by personal agenda. But, discerning knowledgeable fans can distinguish between the BS. and facts or truth. But, he will certainly fill a gullible follower with horse manure. 😆. Yet, he always provides a engaging perspective of the NBA.
Exactly James Bowser. He talks about how he respects and learned from the Celtics but leaves out the part where he says if Bird was black he would be just another guy. Or that he spread a rumor that Magic was gay. He always mentions the disrespect the Pistons got but does not talk about what the Pistons actually did to make that happen.
@@aleksandarradojevic2564 everyone has had their issues, Bird called Dr. J the N-word and as a role model for America Magic committed countless adultery against his wife......piling up on Zeke is emotionally fandom
lol Shaq "Oh you got Pete Chillcut guarding me?" these guys are so funny
I like when Zeke points out that "You KNOW when the OTHER TEAM knows that you're the better team. So now, you're just playing the game..."
Yeah most athletes don't admit that they knew that the other team was the better til after they've retired.
I AGREE.
You can't admit defeat like that when you're playing, gotta keep team morale.
Because you can't admit it at the time.
EJ in my mind has the best job in the world. He looks like he is just living life at work. I love this show and i love the love/fun/ chemistry that they have with one another. Best show ever
First of all, my condolences to Ernie Johnson for the loss of his son. Now, back to this show, I saw a text here where someone said that he can watch this show for 10 hours straight. He had truly said it for a lot of people. Just look at how the story started today with Isaiah Thomas and his mom. Wow! Thumbs up!
What the Spurs did in the 2014 playoffs and Finals, the Celtics did in the 1986 season playoffs and Finals. They played the so-called Beautiful Basketball.
Man, this episode was amazing!!!
Some guys here talk about how honest was Chuck, and it's true. Very interesting the way that Chuck put the phrase "You loose more than you win...", and not only that, how do they talk about it and understand that loose its an important part of the game.
The moments of Kevin are just awesome!
And great nickname for MJ: "The Black Cat" hahahaha
Please upload more!!!!
I was angry for a month when Chuck lost that finals game. The Suns played with such heart and i hated the Bulls, but i respect them.
That double on Charles, it's interesting you watch dan marejle miss that wide open base line jumper...
Suns was the best team in the nba that year up until the finals
@@EE-bg1de That was definitely a brick!
I'm a Sonics fan. Imagine how we felt.
Isiah Thomas is a great storyteller
I'm not really even a basketball fan, but I love watching these shows!! Very funny and entertaining.
Same. I was born in 1981 and live in the UK so remember growing up during the Jordan era. I've never actively followed B'Ball but I remember the early to mid 90s legends like Ewing, Robinson, Barkley etc through playing games like NBA Jam.
I wish I understood more of the B'Ball terminology when they start talking technical lol!
The perspective by Chuck about how much more often you lose than you actually win was an eye opener. It's easy to forget how often the greats lost before they finally won. EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM can attest to that. So it's gotta hurt incredibly deeper when you get so close but don't win AT ALL.
except for Bill Russell. you can count in 1 hand the years he didn't win. and he's still probably pissed that he lost
Magic Johnson dominated most of the decade.
Magic won as a rookie. Bird won in 81 so his 2nd or 3rd year. People forget mj it took awhile to win b/c the east was so tough. Celtics pistons & 76ers in the 80s. The Knicks sadly Ewing & mj were the same age so they had such a great rivalry but mj of course was better & Ewing really never had much help esp in his younger years. The best he had were 2 cba guys in starks & Mason so those were guys the Knicks didn't draft or trade for. They were Cinderella stories. I honestly believe pat Riley screwed up badly when the Knicks team of 92 took the bulls to 7 Jordan said that was the one time he called his dad nervous. That Knicks team should have stayed together. How do u get rid of a young mark jackson a ny native & the team leader & the x man who if u watch in 92 was killing the bulls. Riley I get felt he needed to add something to beat the bulls but I think being it was only his first year w/ that group keep em together for the next year & see if the chemistry gets even better. Instead he fell for Charles Smith & sadly that was a bust. So he let x man walk as a free agent & traded 25 year old mark Jackson for Smith & a past his prime doc rivers. Worst mistake. Plus I liked starks coming off the bench b/c he was so streaky it was maddening. He was brilliant or horrendous from game to game half to half at times. Gerald Wilkins wasn't his brother but having starks as ur only 2 guard really showed in the finals. Brilliant in game 6 single handedly almost winning the title than game 7 , 2 for 18. I was shocked Riley didn't tell him to stop shooting. Like the rockets actually were laying off him in the 4th & all just waiting for the rebound.
Barkley is my favorite athlete to listen to share his thoughts the dude is very authentic a 1of 1.
Kevin was a beast folks. For the folks who didn’t see him play, brah I’m telling you he was an absolute beast in the low post.
My nana was a die hard pacers fan and a closet Celtics fan. She loved Reggie, mostly because he can flip that switch (knicks) and who he was off the court and what he did for our home state.
But she also loved Larry Bird. She knew him personally from her days working in administration at the prestigious isu lol.
She also loved Larry because of his competitive nature and how he talked trash.
Miss watching Reggie play
Rip nana
@@codeysnow2980 Rip Nana. That’s wonderful Codey! I’m glad you got to enjoy that with her. I tell ya, sports can connect an entire town, city, state, and Country
He was Tim Duncan before Tim Duncan
When Barkley said that they used to call Jordan "Black cat" loool xD
reggie called MJ "Black Jesus"
@@christianbrianenad9803 and "that black cat" - source: the last dance
It was bad luck when he crossed your path.
@@christianbrianenad9803 Earl Monroe is Black Jesus, you have the two mixed up
I remember Kobe learned that players called MJ "Black Cat" and refused to call him that 😂
Put this show on today and the ratings are THROUGH THE ROOF!!!! Everybody would watch, how did we not appreciate this when it happened!?!?!?!?!
Just listening to these guys talk takes me back to my youth where life was simple and everything was fun.
Damn that part of Kevin McHale telling he is playing with a fractured ankle for 2 months shows how tough they are in that era and he even played through it knowing he has that injury.
He had the best low post moves.
Damn, listening to these guys, I feel their pain. And I love that no matter how much money they got and all that, that they still feel the pain so many years later. So different than the way it is now.
This is the single greatest sports show ever.
As a *HUGE* fan of the Barkley Era Sun's it really makes me feel better knowing that Finals loss was his worst moment..
Not the girl spitting thing...
That loss haunts me so much because Charles health really declined after that and they never got back. Plus he was known to be Loof and not work hard.. He is the only one up there (of the 90s all stars) not to play in his prime with another Hall of Famer (Horry is going and Drex is there already) so then that winning a title is understandable but it still bugs the hell out of me. The sons were absolutely dismal on defense preferring to just simply outscored their opponents instead of actually Manning up but they had a fun style of play and that other gear they had that they could just turn up was absolutely amazing. I don't know it's weird but it really makes me feel good that it's still bugs Barclays to this day. Absolutely excellent excellent show this is. And I agree with Barkley wholeheartedly :I would love to hear the private conversations that they have about their careers.
36:32 Zeke done fell asleep 😴 listening to chuck 😂
"You lose more than you win ! ...... Shaq played 20 years and he was blessed to win a championship 4 times, so 16 times ! You're down and depressed and it sucks ! ...."
- Charles Barkley
Most Realest quote from the Round Mound of Rebound !!!!! ...
#DroppingGems
This is why I love Sir Charles.... man opened his heart up to us
everyone on this one fit so well they all had the greatest stories to tell
😂😂😂😂😭 keven Mchale ain’t know Mahorn used to blow his nose in that towel you can tell😂😂😂
LOL Facts
McHale thought his story about busting Mahorn was so funny. THat shut up McHale really quickly....lol
@@spy1965If that’s the first time he found out about that, how would you take that story? It’s funny and kind of gross! Kevin McHale was a lot better player than Rick Mahorn. The late 80’s Pistons we’re playing some great basketball and they’ve got the Championships to prove that fact. I’ll give them all the credit as a Celtics fan, but I still don’t like Laimbeer. He could rebound and shoot, but he was a bit dirty.
Isaiah was giving mchale his flowers, you can see how appreciative mchale was everytime Isaiah talked about him and the Celtics, you have to learn from someone and when you become great pay homage to those who have paved the way that’s OLD SCHOOL
Man ... Charles' story was so intense... Isaiah and even shaq had that moment of truth expressions... This is why they should bring this show back ...
Barkley was obviously a great player as the number one option but imagine if he had gotten to be the second option playing next to Magic, Bird, Shaq, or MJ. The guy would have about 5 rings. He tried doing it later in his career with Olajuwon but they didn’t get it done. Such a shame. Would have loved to seen him get at least one ring.
Open court is the best talk show everrrrr... Best host.. Best guests... Genuine reactions.. Jst simple talk...
Man I Love these Guys I grew up on 80’s & 90’s Basketball. I miss watching Basketball like this✅
I could watch Open Court alllll f'n day!!! They're talking about my era of basketball [80s/90s] 💙💙💙💙💙💙
18:46 everyone started bursting when Keith Closs name came up........... LMAO
Isiah won us a championship at IU in 81...when he hurt his ankle against the Lakers and THEN went off in the 4th...I was amazed! That part where he was talking about ripping his opponents heart? That's pure Isiah Thomas!
when chuck was telling how they lost to the bulls you can see shaq and zeke remembering the times that they lost too
I really appreciate the honesty and humility of this segment. Good TV
Gotta love Shaq's plug at the end for Icy-Hot...
Bulls defense was incredible. Charles still not over this. When you got Pippen and Grant double team you, while Jordan is waiting to step in at any time... Its just too tough...
I loved every minute of this. I used to watch this awesome basketball back in the day with my now middle aged son. I let him stay up late 🥰.
Great basketball, wonderful memories.
Charles’ reflection on his loss was absolutely riveting.
Jordan and The Bulls were really a special once in a lifetime dynasty during the 90s!
LOL Charles "Shazam..." hilarious
I swear, wouldn't it be beautiful to have a time machine? To be able to go back and capture all these moments for yourself to enjoy anytime? I'll forever have so much love for my 80's and 90's year's.
Man! This is so amazing seeing guys from different backgrounds; obstacle and wealth sit in one room to chat. There is no words to describe it.
This might be one of my favorite Open Courts (no C-webb, no Kenny "not a jet" Smith) just articulate, emotional, prideful guys. They all got egos Sure. But nobody needs to overcompensate. 3D gets his shine, Kevin McHale gets his shine. And Barkley doesn't talk over Shaq's segment like normal. And geez my eyes started welling up on that Thomas story. Who knew he was such a good guy when he wasn't telling his teammates to break Jordan's legs??
How can you dislike this video, this is so much fun.
Honestly, good shit for Chuck, getting up there and being that honest. Replaying that time you nearly won the championship, you just had to get through the double team.................... OF SCOTTIE PIPPEN AND HORACE GRANT!
Absolute legend
The bad thing about Charles being so transparent is that Shaq knows how much it hurts when he gets sensitive and throws his 4 rings in Barkley’s face.
I love it. When chuck said Black cat
I can binge watch on these for days!
Imagine if Kobe would’ve been on the show. He would’ve fit perfectly
"Try too hard and make it worse." its called The Westbrook
Precisely.... after his third first round exit without Durant
*The Westbrick
This aged very well.
@@paraisoinformativo he's gonna be a player who could have been good and pissed it all away for stats like iverson
Underrated comment
Feel so sad rewatching these great opencourt shows of legends with kobe still playing his last seasons at that time
"I think I'm averaging 36 20 against detroit"
No.
26 10 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
If Kobe passed more he prolly woulda. Man was averaging 26 on 63% lol.
@@coolioth2843 there's a reason he only out put up 26 u clearly didn't watch the finals
Shaq was way too passive, he saw the double and just passed to bums who he wanted to recruit that held the Lakers back. GP and malone were trash
@@lebronblew5finalsnottop5ne22 you are correct, But the late great in his own words has taken responsibility for the Detroit loss as well. So you cant take him completely off the hook. He said he should have utilized his team better and read better what Detroit was doing.
@@mlg2781 nothing him or kobe could do. Their team was terrible. They lost all their shooters in free agency, didn't replace one. U can see the roster , they're all bums. Karl malone clogged the paint , go couldn't shoot or guard anyone anymore. I blame management
@@lebronblew5finalsnottop5ne22 you didn’t watch the finals. Kobe was too busy shot jacking and was playing in the Pistons hands.
this is GOLD! THANK YOU!
Sir Charles still a goat as a player an on tv
love shag he always makes me smile,,, thanks big shag,,...
As much as I love Inside the NBA this is honestly my favorite show. I could listen to these stories all day.
Also you can't write a better story than the one Isaiah told.
Amazing story tellers. There should be more of this.
