#nba #jamalmurray #interview
Watched this after the Nuggets won the championship. This video is prophetic AF.
Love Jamal! So glad he’s back!!
Love how she makes the interview flow
Taylor always does an amazing done with these interview. i was eager for her to ask about Jamal's meditation and mental toughness background.
8:54 best way to put it. Kawhi left Canada just to blow a 3-1 lead to a Canadian.
Can't wait to see him on the floor with Joker and MPJ in the regular season
We seen those 3 and it was fantastic 😄
Is that "people really forgot how good JM was".... sound loud as hell now!!! 9 months later and he is NBA champion...what a amazing story!
That story about Vince Carter, amazing 👏 and so great to hear that Jamal is passing it forward to the next generation. Looking forward to seeing him with Djoker again!
Nice interview.
I am BEYOND excited for this year
Great interview! I couldn’t help but picture a little kid talking trash and Jamal giving back the same vibe 😂
Definitely an all-star talent, him and MPJ returning next to the MVP is going to be deadly. Denver will surprise a lot of people come playoff time
Will muray come back in regular season?
@@JC-xm9lo yes
@@smittywerbenjagermanjensen320 but, he just had another injury right?
@@JC-xm9lo I'm 100% sure he won't miss the whole season
@@JC-xm9lo aaa
Those were really good questions. Rooks is going places
@@sorelirimias Its media training, you can see it in some male reporters too just less expressive
@@sorelirimias that’s every media person, ever
they shoulda talk bout something before the bubble😏
Went to Game 3 of the finals at ball arena and ran into Rocky on the elevator but that dude was on a mission lol couldn’t get a pic or nothing 😂
Now I understand why him and Volk be vibing
Rocky & Benny the Bull are Top 2 NBA Mascots. Top 5 in all American Pro Sports. If there was a Mascot HOF those of this era would be 1st Ballot, easily.
COMEBACK PLAYER OF THE YEAR he has to earn it tho. consistency is key, which is what he lacks
Yup! He got it along with the ring!
Why is this not on her podcast page?
33:18 point gaard
When I was a kid Rocky ran me over in the hallway during a bball game
Damn mascot makes more than the president 😂
Champ
Darth Mal ❤❤ THE MAN THE MYTH

Yes, I listen to what Jamal is talking about, but she is hot🔥🔥🔥
Is Taylor Brooks slowly turning into Patti Labelle. 😁

He likes white women
MALLY MAL in the building!!! Rocky is the best mascot, ever!! Go Nuggets!!!!
Guin

An all star? Not yet!🙃
Pro basketball is not what the pro armchair "basketballers" think
She’s not as fine as she used to be…
👀
Huh?!
you are right, she is even better :P
She never was
@@enigmathegrayman2953a racist
