KG: "your favorite player is an a**hole, your favorite player is a killer, your favorite player will put your head through a wall if he has to" Me with my favorite player being Jimmy Butler: "yeah...he spittin"
What in the hell was lawrence frank thinking giving kawhi that max deal? 💀 It's been OBVIOUS for YEARS that kawhis knees are PERMANENTLY INJURED. His knees are simply cooked. They should have just traded both kawhi and pg and did a rebuild. They would have substantial assets for the future. No way I'm giving kawhi a max contract at age 33 with shot knees
1) It was not a max. It was significantly below market value, which is why it shocked a lot of people at the time 2) It's not a secret that Kawhi's knees are shot, so why would anyone give up anything significant for him in a trade? 3) They definitely weren't trading PG last season after they were cooking from like December to February, and after that he was a free agent (and obviously untradable) Kawhi's also the only player the Clippers have had in the Steve Ballmer era that has shown to be able to lead a team to a championship. There's no way they weren't giving him that offer
@@jgates9786 man it was 3 yr $152 million. If that's not a max it's extremely close to one. I just googled his max would have been 3yr $161 million. So ok even it's technically not a max contract my point still remains the same. A wiser gm would NOT have given him ANY TYPE of major extension given his injury history and knowing his knees are simply done. That 3 yr extension is just as insane as a max contract. "People were shocked"? 😂 they were shocked for the WRONG REASONS . They should have been shocked that the clippers didn't trade him and rebuild rather than giving him 150 million dollars 🤦♂️
Tony Allen having his # retired in Memphis is awesome and says a lot about that franchise. That happening before KG's # is retired in Minnesota says a lot about that situation and franchise. Kat's gone now, let's see how the Ant situation plays out.
These two together are the best. And it’s because of how much they love the game. It’s so clear . It’s like two guys sitting on the stoop for 10 hours talking about hoops. So good. And what’s so great is they say things that ESPN or any network would never let them say. Talking about how players are too involved with their brand, how they’re out of shape, how it’s hurting the game, too many coaches, too much in between the player and actually playing. Freedom to talk. Awesome. I love listening to these two guys.🙏😉💪🏼
@35:20 names of "standout" players that logged 80+ games in the 23-24 season: Banchero, Siakam, Brook Lopez, MPJr, DiVincenzo, Josh Hart, Jalen Green, Holmgren, Sabonis, Mikal Bridges, Bobby Portis, Harrison Barnes, and Buddy Hield.
“Mike Jordan came to camp ready to go”. Sent the tone for the entire league. Follow the leader. Now look at who they follow. Take games off. Don’t play defense. Flopping. So on and so forth.

I feel you KG fr but yall gotta understand the pace of the new nba and how much wear and tear it’s putting on the body these days. It’s a whole different game. I guarantee if yall were playing in this pace and space era yall would be tryna conserve yall bodies more than tryna make it to 82. It aint just “they aint in shape”
"Consultation fee" is wild. 😂😂😂😂 I'm all about these players getting the bags they're getting, but at the same time I get what KG and P saying. They should pay them like the WWE paid their stars during the Attitude era. All the PTO games for minor injuries would stop immediately. lol
I'm glad he calling out how these guys don't come into a new season in game shape. What doesn't get said enough also is how the popularity that was built on the backs of previous eras, gave way to bigger tv deals and inflated salaries players get now. They need to respect the game and play the right way.
This whole rest to preserve players is bogus. MJ missed less than 10 games in the 90s DECADE. if you’re not conditioned to play a whole szn, back2backs then of course you’re more likely to get injured especially at post szn when you’re needed more on the floor. It’s an awful trend, respect to players that put in the work tho it’s their livelihood
BIG FACTS! THEY DON'T WANT IT LIKE YALL DID ALL OF YALL MEANING KG%PAUL WAS DOGS THAT HUNT THESE BOYS NOT DAYS WANT TO BE HUNTING BUT DON'T KNOW THE JINGLE PERIOD💙💙💙💙💙💙💙LUV U TWO!
I got C's over Knicks for the simple fact of team chemistry. This is nearly the same team as last year for Boston, so we KNOW they gel well together, but this will be the Knicks first reg season game together, they'll have some rough edges to work out
Would KG take a bag to spend the whole summer next year with Cooper Flagg to work on his laterals? Just imagine the KG influence on him. LORD HAVE MERCY BOYEEEEEEEE !
29:15-3:20 nice to see people actually walking through it and slowly seeing the vision of why the Mavs added Klay instead of circlejerking about two bad games. He’s washed, but as a roleplayer sitting in the corner he’s gonna hit shots. Genuinely how do you stop the Mavs offense if all three of Luka, Kyrie, and Klay get hot at the same time, while also having 48 minutes of two amazing rolling big men in Lively and Gafford? And yea, there are defensive concerns. But we got Grimes and Naji for a reason. There’s gonna be some absolutely absurd games from this team over the season.
It’s the fact that they are visibly SOFT ! he saying if they wanted to play no matter the reason they would . And he not lying my heroes growing up played every chance they could . And played they hearts out
lol watching this after seeing a rookie with painted nails clutch his chest and be rushed to the hospital because he got the wind knocked out of him, hits diff lol
Come on ticket Kat is NOT on that tier with Giannis or embid!? If he was the wolves would've kept him! He and KP for the Celtics are the same he aint no damn embid. Wolves won that trade easy
KG trying to motivate the league! He like Ray Lewis and DMX mixed in a blinder, the energy is so raw all the time 🫡💯💯💯
Hahaha facts
Awesome comment
I hope it work they be killing my lays
Deadass probably one of the best comparisons I heard

“Jump hooking’em, drop step…dunk” 😂😂😂😂😂
The Guys are back together, shows been missing something without P being there, "Ticket and Truth" 💯🤝
KG: "your favorite player is an a**hole, your favorite player is a killer, your favorite player will put your head through a wall if he has to"
Me with my favorite player being Jimmy Butler: "yeah...he spittin"
KG in Starting 5 was fire! Netflix must have to do more content with the Big Ticket

KG stay fuckin up music lyrics and movie quotes but he do it smoothly. LOL He be close but wrong as hell

how many played 70+?
Them not superstars tho
KG has a lot of Passion in this podcast , it feels like he wants to get on the court right now and battle.
Imagine his in-game intensity 😬
“Mike Jordan came to camp ready to go”. Sent the tone for the entire league. Follow the leader.
Now look at who they follow. Take games off. Don’t play defense. Flopping. So on and so forth.
All facts.
KG and Paul the realest in this podcast game for hoops. KG too raw for these new dudes.
These guys are the best. Real talk. I'm a Celtics fan so I'm lucky but even if I wasn't I would have the ultimate respect for these 2.
Some players from that 1995 McDonald's class:

When KG talking that’s how I feel about boxing and exactly why it’s my favorite sport
This is the best duo on talk!!! Period!!!
KG don’t never let P talk! 😂😂😂
This was a Great show...Yall tapped in to the Gods on this one!!!
I love KG's "Sunday, Sunday," makes me crack up everytime 😆
Paul Pierce on the influx of new jobs and those individuals selling teams and players on these new concepts and methods is spot on.
2 of the legends.. let’s talk some hoop y’all
Man, imagine Steph telling KG "I'm not playing back to backs no more"
Embiid ain't shit
10:20 I got to watch this again bc I can remember the way they ran the court.
KG the most motivational player/person ever
“Y’all ain’t come here for the treble, y’all came here for the Bass!” 👊🏽
preach fellas !!!
First 20 minutes is what I’m preaching to my young sons man🙏🏾
I love this duo such cool guys give us a good lough
KG was on some real ish in that first 5 minutes. Respect. We ALL have greatness in us! 💪🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
I feel you KG fr but yall gotta understand the pace of the new nba and how much wear and tear it’s putting on the body these days. It’s a whole different game. I guarantee if yall were playing in this pace and space era yall would be tryna conserve yall bodies more than tryna make it to 82. It aint just “they aint in shape”
This made my day. Glad you are back fellas.
Let’s get it cracking this morning🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Consultation fee" is wild. 😂😂😂😂 I'm all about these players getting the bags they're getting, but at the same time I get what KG and P saying. They should pay them like the WWE paid their stars during the Attitude era. All the PTO games for minor injuries would stop immediately. lol
I love this podcast man, everything they say you have to listen.
Love when KG gives his shout outs!
Amazing episode 🎉love hearing Ticket and the Truth
dont forget that Kawhi Leonard started the load management movement!
Take a shot everytime KG says lord
Alcohol poisoning
I'm glad he calling out how these guys don't come into a new season in game shape. What doesn't get said enough also is how the popularity that was built on the backs of previous eras, gave way to bigger tv deals and inflated salaries players get now. They need to respect the game and play the right way.
"think about yo life and yo knee" lol
Please stop triggering KG new NBA guys

Paolo is my must watch for league pass this year. Roy, followed by an all star and some playoff reps. I can’t wait to see how this year is for him
This whole rest to preserve players is bogus.

I got C's over Knicks for the simple fact of team chemistry. This is nearly the same team as last year for Boston, so we KNOW they gel well together, but this will be the Knicks first reg season game together, they'll have some rough edges to work out
KG is hilarious 😂
Paul Pierce broke the system down perfectly.
NBA not missing out on 510 games with a 65 game season!!
1:22:18 that's love ❤️
KG is right. Not playing 82, don’t make the playoffs, skip summer league and sit out the preseason.
2 mil going to plasma lmaoo 😂😂
KG wasn't hyped up for the HOF inductees 👀😯
Bron a Villain have KG tell it !! ahaha
Would KG take a bag to spend the whole summer next year with Cooper Flagg to work on his laterals? Just imagine the KG influence on him. LORD HAVE MERCY BOYEEEEEEEE !
Truth and The Big Ticket
KG WOULD BE A GREAT ASSISTANT COACH FOR THE WOLVES ESPECIALLY IN PRACTICE AND LOCKER ROOM
Dame and the bucks coming for the top spot this year 💯💯🦌
29:15-3:20 nice to see people actually walking through it and slowly seeing the vision of why the Mavs added Klay instead of circlejerking about two bad games. He’s washed, but as a roleplayer sitting in the corner he’s gonna hit shots.
Genuinely how do you stop the Mavs offense if all three of Luka, Kyrie, and Klay get hot at the same time, while also having 48 minutes of two amazing rolling big men in Lively and Gafford?
And yea, there are defensive concerns. But we got Grimes and Naji for a reason. There’s gonna be some absolutely absurd games from this team over the season.
Klay trash
S/O J reed ! A Jackson legend !
Preciate that Ticket 💯🫡
Ayo Ticket !
That’s an introduction fo yo ass my man💯🫡
It’s the fact that they are visibly SOFT ! he saying if they wanted to play no matter the reason they would . And he not lying my heroes growing up played every chance they could . And played they hearts out
Kg gone love randle wit the wolves
Pierce said they the big dogs, when the Knicks were the ones that ended that team lmaooo😂😂
Zach Edey is the key to Ja’s return/best season yet.
Screwston back in the mix. KG been watching the games…
It’s all good though, Clutch City likes to catch the league sleepn.
lol watching this after seeing a rookie with painted nails clutch his chest and be rushed to the hospital because he got the wind knocked out of him, hits diff lol
1:05:39 he was gonna say a stripper right 😂
Mikal Bridges played 82.. but he’s not a superstar..
Julius goes harder than KAT..the Wolves won that trade!!! Time will tell the Truth...
Come on ticket Kat is NOT on that tier with Giannis or embid!? If he was the wolves would've kept him! He and KP for the Celtics are the same he aint no damn embid. Wolves won that trade easy
