I was definitely expecting all of it to be how this era of players aren't good, there are no good big men like him, and he should've had 10 MVP awards lol j/k.
I was working in a Fatburger as a kid in Los Angeles. My uniform was visibly dirty and nasty, and when I walked back in from taking out the trash to the dumpsters, Shaq is sitting there waiting on an order. I said "Oh what's up Shaq", and he reaches out his hand for a handshake. I respond "Oh no man I just took out the trash". Shaq gets up and not only gives me a handshake, but a hug too. That was over 20 years ago and as a grown man now I have an infinite amount of respect for him. Truly a people person, and a great humanitarian.
honestly every time there's piece of content featuring Shaq. There's always a great story in the comments of an interaction someone has had with him. Shaq is legit a humble and amazing person.
A lot of players in the NBA acted so fake after his death acting like they were close to Kobe. Everyone who followed Kobe up close knows who he really fucked with in the NBA. What distinguishes Matt and Stacks is they mean it when they say “we won’t forget our brothers legacy”. They both voiced their opinion on Kobe’s ranking among the greatest of all time (they both have Kobe right after MJ). While these other dudes acting like they love Kobe and never speak up when the media acts like Kobe was fucking Danghtay Jones when it comes to the GOAT convo.
@@romeohemerling3538 Not everyone would be right there through that rough time, sometimes not even family members because it can be too devastating for them.
I love how Matt & Stax just let Shaq go. No interruptions or trying to make sure you get to every question. Best type of interview w/a legend like Shaq. That's how you get the best stories.
I don’t like how he drops mother Fucker In a sentence that doesn’t call for it or even make sense. I have to turn it down so kids won’t here and other people all that cussing does is make it harder for your content to reach more people
@@shawnhickman1412Stak and Matt have a completely different target market. They don't have to compete with traditional basketball shows and that's what's going to make them standout. The title and logo of the show should give you a clue who their audience are.
I worked as a security guard during the 2019 NBA Finals. A couple tried to get close to Shaq in a restricted area and I immediately stoped them. Shaq told me to let them through and took a bunch of hilarious pics with them. No one's perfect but this man has a huge heart!
yea its true for even us as well, we are all so busy with our own lives we always put off doin things/talkin with our friends/family and never stop and think this person could go anytime just like that
true for everyone that you love though. hadn't been to seen my family in over a year because of the pandemic but I said to hell with it and went to see em. they could have died of a million other things in between the time in takes to get a vaccination and you realize how precious time is once you getting older and have that perspective.

I don’t think people realize how good sheed really was. He loved defense and could’ve dropped 30 every night if he wanted to. Shout out original commenter for dropping Rasheed into the convo
Shaq’s father had that Toughlove… a lot of parents want to be their children’s friend and they don’t learn the value of ambition and motivation… thats missing in todays youth, that’s why they catch feelings so easy
Mammoth facts. Shaq's parents sound like mine. In my house they taught you shit one of two ways. 1. You were told them, or 2. they were beat into you. That's it. You wanted to do shit your way? Ok. There is the door. Leave the keys on the way out.
@Him Times10 Clearly you don't know Duncan. Just because he's quiet and plays fundamental ball doesn't mean he's boring. He has a better personality than most players.
With the amount of discipline that it takes to be an athlete…this show continues to be an extension of that high level of commitment… I Love this show and I respect it’s format!
@@navi2181 Shaq remembers choking Giricek, but he must have done the same thing to Dragic because Giricek was on the 2007-08 Suns, while Matt, Shaq, and Dragic were teammates on the 2008-09 Suns team.
@@Doknot-tb9ey They were teammates and they had a lot of fun, there were even some videos they made like comedy skits or something. Besides if you know Goran you'd know that's just not him, he's a real pro and if a veteran was talking to him he'd listen.
Kids don’t understand how hard Steff Curry works and the time in the gym putting shots up to be as good as he is to do what he does! That’s what needs to be talked about!
wen kobe passed and inside the nba did there tribute to kobe it hit hardest wen shaq said he didn’t lose a friend he didn’t lose a teammate he lost his brother and his niece 😢 i still remember that
Matt, you're going to have an amazing career. You're so good at this. I rooted against every team you played on but you are my favorite post-NBA player. Your talent as an interviewer is crazy.

This is the bestest thing I ever seen. Shaq actually happened. Go big fella. You represent all of us humans. And love to Matt and Stephen too.
*AYO FAM AYE FAM WE NEED THAT RASHEED WALLACE INTERVIEW FAM!* 👀
I need sheed and Ben together, that would be GOLD
Throw Tayshaun Prince & Chauncey Billups in there
he was on million dollars worth of game if you wanna you tube that
I don’t think people realize how good sheed really was. He loved defense and could’ve dropped 30 every night if he wanted to. Shout out original commenter for dropping Rasheed into the convo
@@jeffrhodes8103 Blazers stopped giving him the ball game 7
Shaq’s father had that Toughlove… a lot of parents want to be their children’s friend and they don’t learn the value of ambition and motivation… thats missing in todays youth, that’s why they catch feelings so easy
Facts!
Facts
Big Facts
Talk yo shit 🗣
Mammoth facts. Shaq's parents sound like mine. In my house they taught you shit one of two ways. 1. You were told them, or 2. they were beat into you. That's it.
You wanted to do shit your way? Ok. There is the door. Leave the keys on the way out.
Shaq is sneaky entertaining as a speaker. Never get that watching him on TNT.
Yes they finally got Shaq long over due😭
They gotta get mj
They had him on right before Kobe passed. This is his second time.
@@donovanmarcus289 what? Nah
I want Tim Duncan or Jason Kidd next! This fire!
Duncan never
I agree.
@@wq113ca Duncan went on Raja Bell’s podcast. He would go on this one
@Him Times10 Clearly you don't know Duncan. Just because he's quiet and plays fundamental ball doesn't mean he's boring. He has a better personality than most players.
I couldnt watch Duncan on this podcast, he would be too loud and be getting everyone hyped up with his energy.. he's too exuberant
hearing shaq talk about kobe made me cry unbelievably hard
Barnes got everybody's respect. He A1
Shaq " when you focus on the task relationships dwindle " real spill..
which minute does he say that? real gem
@@eduardovillalpando6008 about 50:00
With the amount of discipline that it takes to be an athlete…this show continues to be an extension of that high level of commitment…
I Love this show and I respect it’s format!
"in this thing of ours, if you play well, everybody gets paid" Now Shaq talking like the real NBA Don
56:22 GEORGE FLOYD WATCHING AT THE BACK!! CREEPY 👀
The manscapped advert really got me 😂😂😂
I really wanted to see Shaq and Kobe take on Boston in the finals. Shaq’s the only laker legend to not play the Celtics in the finals
This may be the best show you guys have done… hands down.
That manscape add had me rolling. Only Matt and Staxx could pull that off😂😂😀
The only other person I think of who could pull it off is Craig Carton.
This real talk for an hour. Even body language from the hosts show the respect they give him. Perfect interview.
Any interview with the Big Aristotle is an immediate click..Great listening to the greatest bigman ever the Big Diesel
bruh, that Manscape commercial is absolute gold. Manscape hit the jackpot with you guys.
Shaq helps out so many people on a daily basis he couldn't even remember helping out Jack on his court case. He's a good dude through and thru!
Shaq choking out Dragic in the Phoenix was the greatest NBA story I've ever heard
It wasnt dragic. It was gordan giricek. Shaq's memory is bad.
@@navi2181 Shaq remembers choking Giricek, but he must have done the same thing to Dragic because Giricek was on the 2007-08 Suns, while Matt, Shaq, and Dragic were teammates on the 2008-09 Suns team.
@@Doknot-tb9ey i think Dragic would remember it and not post on twitter that it wasnt him.
@@Doknot-tb9ey They were teammates and they had a lot of fun, there were even some videos they made like comedy skits or something. Besides if you know Goran you'd know that's just not him, he's a real pro and if a veteran was talking to him he'd listen.
@@Doknot-tb9ey This is a lie, because Goran Dragić did not play for the Suns at that time. Shaq is confused, it was the other player and not Dragić.
I’ll never get tired of Shaq telling that Jerry West story
Jerry West literally traded the whole team to get Shaq! Ill never forget that
One of the most real interviews ever.
Shaq an all time great person and overall personality. Let’s give him his flowers while he is here!
How can anyone not love Shaq. He’s a true warrior and great human being. Great interview!
Felt sooooo good to hear Shaq mention Redman! True Hip Hop head right here!
Shaq from jersey,….he better
Shaq wearing an Alabama State jersey mean a lot to me being my Alma mater and the city that raised me much respect ✊🏾
Shush
"Thank God Shaq was raised right..." KG, truer words never been spoken
HAHAHA
THIS IS MY FAVORITE THING TO WATCH ON THE SCREEN OTHER THAN MY FAMILY!!!! God bless and keep Matt and Stak! This is more than a show! This is LIFE!!!!
Kids don’t understand how hard Steff Curry works and the time in the gym putting shots up to be as good as he is to do what he does! That’s what needs to be talked about!
All the smoke is the best podcast no cap ! Matt is killin it
wen kobe passed and inside the nba did there tribute to kobe it hit hardest wen shaq said he didn’t lose a friend he didn’t lose a teammate he lost his brother and his niece 😢 i still remember that
Shaq dropped the All The Smoke quote of the year... “I messes with y’all”
Need to put that in the intro.
Matt, you're going to have an amazing career. You're so good at this. I rooted against every team you played on but you are my favorite post-NBA player. Your talent as an interviewer is crazy.
I was at Boston Garden for Shaq's first visit and we had never seen anyone like him. Dude seemed twice as big as everyone else, like not even real. Amazing.
