The NBA Convention DOCUMENTARY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- An expedition from New Jersey ALL the way to Las Vegas for the first ever NBA fan convention. The buzz, the excitement, The hoisting, the impending core self collapse, all the big questions loom: Can TNBAST Emio secure autographs from legends like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or legends for other reasons like Juan Toscano-Anderson? With humor, nostalgia(aka regret) and a touch of suspense(maybe full blown lies..idk at this point) dive into a (hot ass) journey filled with iconic names, from the 1977 Seattle Supersonics to the supersonics from the 90's and the 1977 dunk contest featuring a supersonic ... all the way to Isaiah Hartenstein. Smothered by the condensed air of expectations and humidity of Las Vegas, will TNBAST Emio's convention nightmares collapse into reality or will he completely embarrass himself in uncountable and unknowable ways. Some goal will be accomplished and some goalS wont(?) i guess.

HERE IT IS: IAN's RESEARCH:
Look, we all forget things. When we forget things we usually embellish our stories a little (hopefully not a lot) to keep people interested. Even if we remember an event and it's not interesting enough then we embellish. Everyone does it. Especially those of us with self-esteem issues. Here are some of my favorite embellishments that I found from NBA stars.
Shawn Kemp - He claims Larry Bird gave him 50 in three quarters The Celtics only played sonics once in the 89-90 season. Bird scored 40 points. Double checked and there's no 50 point game against seattle.
Kyrie Irving - Jose Calderon - He claims Calderon gave him 26 and 14. The only time Jose Calderon scored 26 points was 11/21/2008 against the Nets. Looks like he never scored above 20 against Cleveland. In Irving's first game against Calderon the statline is 15 pts, 6 rebounds, and 11 assists for calderon.Irving says he was 6 and 6 but he had 6 points, 7 assists, 3 rebounds.
Allen Iverson says in his 1996-97 rookie season that 76ers played three games against Suns- He says Kevin Johnson scored 39, 9 and 9 against him but he got 36 pts, 8 ast, 3 rebounds. Still good, but not the same.
Paul Pierce -
This is my favorite one because he prefaces it by saying "I ain't going even going to lie to you" and then the man named "The Truth" says in the 1998-99 season Grant Hill scored 38 points, 15 assists, 12 rebounds which is very specific. But the only games from that season show
-March 12, 1999 - Hill - 33 pts, 8 asts, 8 rebounds
-April 27, 1999 - 32 pts, 2 ast, 4 reb
So The Truth was lying.
Remember, it's okay to say "I don't remember exactly."
And HERE IS THE HOOPS BUS commercial link
• NBA 75th Anniversary C...
Story(s) from the NBA Convention - Kareem, Quinton, even Jaun, Detlef and a Laker Fan!
Just trust me here
Yeah I'm 99% sure you spent the whole time on the Hoops Bus and hallucinated the entire thing
No.
My eyes didn't deceive me. A new NBA Storyteller video! This is a great day for documentary and NBA fans alike.
I literally did a double take thinking I was dreaming when I saw NBA Storyteller pop up. F*** yes! Pause. Let me get some popcorn!
Haven't even watched yet but when I saw the thumbnail and channel name I got excited. This is an event.
"Nothing like this on the big screen, tv, or cable, baby. This is an exclusive."

Thank you so much for making this video, you're my favorite youtuber and kareem is my second favvorite player after kobe
I love your content. Thank you for making this video.
Thank god for this man
I havea 3 hour ride right now. I know one hour is going to fly by. Thank you
Honestly
That is exactly what this video is for. Perfect usage
Dude you looked so genuinely thrilled to meet Kareem in that photo, loved it
Were making hour-long documentaries vertically now? I've always loved your video man, and this hurts.
completely understandable
humans are vertical beasts
HES BACK!
In the name of Hakeem the Dream a miracle is upon us!
Lets see what the goat of this whole darn thing cooked this time
NBA STORYTELLER JUST DROPPED A VIDEO
I came back to watch your old videos thinking you disappeared and here’s another video. Thankful!
Your still one of the GOATs 🐐 Hope your doing well❤
Awesome recap video, from watching since high school to a working man with an expensive piece of paper, we thank you
Bro the CHATGPT prompt 🤣 man I love this channel
Honestly love what you do with your edits and stories, also I'd kill for one of those bendys
honestly I'd encourage you to just make one - i can even link to the basics materials
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🎉🎉🎉
😮
this video is theoretically dedicated to you
Bloody enjoyable mate..just couldn’t turn away..good onya mate from Australia..bloody loved it🤙✌️
Your production is on another level!
Long form?? My ninja! We will never stop looking for you!
I got an update about Stephen A dancing with Jabbawockeez at the exact moment you were talking about the Jabbawockeez
On some real shit, I saw the NBA storyteller and a 51 minute run time and shed a manly ass tear🥹
fantastic story. I have zero memory of that duel behind the back pass from that clippers cat. That needs to be a bigger piece of ballhandling history.
YEEEEEEEEEEES LETS GOOOOOO NEW STORYTELLER VIDEO HELLL YEAAAHHH IMMA ROLL ONE THE SIZE OF A TREE TRUNK YOU JUST MADE MY FRIDAY
that ChatGPT killed me 😂😂
I wanted to go to this too. Also just letting you know this is my favorite UA-cam channel ever
And will be forever
How come as an NBA fan who could pass for ComiCon fan not hear about the NBA version of ComiCon? I have to go to the next one.
AH NOTHIN BETTER THAN PORK LINERS AND BEER..TOPPED OFF WITH A CLASSY ASS ONE OF A KIND SUPER COOL VID FROM THE KID…NBA STORYTELLER..U DA MAIN MAN 💯👽
goat
"He is now back! Holy mackerel."
I thought I’d hate the vertical resolution but I’ve learned to appreciate its beauty
it's not a visually labor intensive video, of course there's a lot of pics and text to have fun with but the core of it works as just audio even
Thanks TNBAST for littering UA-cam Shorts with B-roll bread crumbs of this wonderful nonsensical documentary. Those shorts were like a tease and a signal all at once. I kept seeing them and just thought “these are funny shorts of old nba commercials from tnbast.” I should have known there was more to it….and there was. Bravo!
6:32 You literally cannot touch the World Cup unless you have won it... they bring it out in Gloves. The Original was so coveted, it was stolen, and no one knows where it is
I think the same is true of the Champions League Trophy, maybe even the National league trophies (like Premiere League and La Liga)... but for sure the World Cup
P.S. I love You... thank you for another Gem
old friend!
@@THENBASTORYTELLER Emio....being snippy to you once at the bottom of a lonely depressed haze is 1 of 2 regrets I have in life lol. When I have disposable income, yours will be the first patreon I ever subscribe to... bc my definition of success would be to be on a phone call basis with you... and also admittedly the rest of my living inspirations...
But given i cant think of any others than Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Dan Harmon, MJ, Kareem, Kendrick, J Cole, Kanye, Donald Glover, Zach de la Rocha, Chris Smalls, Anas... also I think Maya Angelou and Coppola are still alive too... I'd say that's 1/15 the highest praise possible lol
Also... back to the World cup...-ish lol... I used to think that basketball was the ultimate spectator sport... if nothing else for Dunks and blocks alone... but I have had to admit defeat to ye olde footballe after my friend got me into fantasy premier league
The European Champions League model with promotions and relegations within a national pyramid system is simply brilliant: no more tanking or garbage time, every second is for glory or survival... the commentators are spectacular. Ray Hudson does freestyle poetry in the throes of excitement... and I don't even speak Italian but I can tell you Tiziano Crudeli deserves an oscar for commentating (if you ever need a smile check out his highlights)
Speaking of: even the UA-cam highlights are more exciting (if the title doesn't ruin the ending)... most importantly the stakes are higher: not only could a team go bankrupt if they are relegated; on the other end of the spectrum: Rob McElhanney and Ryan Reynolds singlehandedly saved a city by investing in their local team... maybe 10Xed their GDP in a year bc of a Documentary and now promotion
Not to mention the rivalries. Many stadiums leave up to half the seats empty... bc ppl throw things... I'm not saying it's admirable lol... it's just evidence as to how much those rivalries matter to those involved. Many of the teams have cultural and political meaning that transcend winning and losing. Barcelona for example is technically owned by the socios (by buying merch or tickets you buy into ownership), they embody the Catalan spirit of coöperation and revolution. Which is why many of coaches have gone on record to say: Playing the Barcelona way is more important than winning. Més que un Club
Just saying... in case you ever want a pallet cleanser... even if it's just for personal consumption... or an encore after the NBAStory has been told lol
Either way Keep being the best on this whole damn thing... take your time if you gotta... Everybody complains about Larry David, Chappelle, and Kendrick having large gaps between works... till they drop another banger and the quality speaks for itself
Morale of this story: INVEST IN A PORTABLE CHARGING BRICK. They don't cost that much and you can get one at the register of your local Walmart or something.
i never learn
Lol@@THENBASTORYTELLER
I love it
i came
its been a long time
I'm going to need you to go to NBACON at least once a month from now on.
Mid season tournament next!
It’s been soo long man 😭😭
And all this for an autograph 😂
26:52 😂
Great movie.
Wondering if you can make video about Westbrook? Maybe about his downfall and how he’s trying rn
you should have a million subs by now easy. oh that pesky shadow ban, i know it all too well.
I miss you, brother
I ❤ u
Make more vids man
I know it's not much, but 0:37 was such a missed opportunity to paint a net on the sleeve. Would that have been too much to ask? If they're going to dress up trashcans, why not have a little fun with it?
Why is it the whole damn thing vertical
it just happened
Does this happen in Vegas every year?
This was the first time, i hope it was successful enough to bring back
Kareem bit a guy???
Coming soon to a tinfoil hat near you.
You remind me a lot of Casey neistat
Did it at least taste like a $20 hamburger?
I want to say no.
But, I guess I don't know what the chef was going for... maybe it's exactly what it should have tasted like.
Instincts say no
Man didn’t know who Matthew stafford is and lives in Cali lol u def don’t watch football good video otherwise
need to crowdfund a battery bank for storyteller
