Bro Shaq guest today is JJ while Shannon guest is Chuck. What a day for NBA podcast today
Shaq is the true GOAT frfr. The only player that stopped him was Free Throw
SHAQ never DISAPPOINTS! 🗣🔥
“I don’t get into the GOAT debate, but let me get into the GOAT debate”.
Okay?😂
Saving this listen for my plane ride
Those who can - do. Those who can't - are on ESPN Talk Shows.
Great conversation 🔥🔥🔥
Man, this has been one of the greatest basketball podcast conversations ever. Two of my favorites on the same episode!
Yo these stories are great!!! I have one , cyo basketball 1982 i am 12 or 13. Mt carmel basketball gym was in an old church, tile flloors and 4 post, one in each corner of courts inbounds... st martin, my team all white, mount carmel church intercity yuoth kids wit ni knames, pie and froggy. These boys were dunking on layup line. We were bugging out. Awesome experience.. ..yes shaq 13 year old boys dunking.. bless up linkupmore
awesome stuff
Expansion didn't add 90 guys to the NBA FYI. Those teams came 4 and then 2 six years later, and they drafted off other teams first. What DID bring 90 guys to the NBA was going from 12 man to 15 man rosters, where ALL NBA players dont play 65 games a year...
This was so great. I enjoy both JJ and Shaq as content creators.
We need Chuck on the podcast
Never heard Shaq curse until this pod. Wow
why is the intro song not on youtube. Big by S.o.????
"I'm talking about US" Son!
Yo what's up
Did shaq just birp and make it an adlib 😂
Who snuck Dwight in the thumbnail 😂

I agree with JJ on the goat debate. It's a debate that doesn't have a right answer and just bashes each side. At this point who cares? Jordan and Bron are both the best of their era
The problem about comparing eras is that people do it anachronistically. This is a bad way to put things in perspective. When you juxtapose two different eras having different culture, environment, psychology, sociology, rules etc, the argumentation becomes circular.
I’ve always been thought jokic got a bad whistle too, honestly
Must watch! Shaq talking b-ball with a full time accountant, ex part time bench warmer for the NBA
At least both admit MJ is the GOAT
Mj is and always will be GOAT..it's who he is ,he made everyone around him better he made you all perform at your highest..Mike is the first man to make every kid,black white pink green...believe you can...you can do anything watching him fly through the air and play the way he did..love ya doc..

JJ Redick ball knowledge is crazy!!
Wish he could coach the Lakers.
@@olegman😂 and lose another one 😂 cause lebron will kick him out 😂🤣
@@olegmanlmao your not a Lakers fan your a lebron fan saying something crazy like that..
Then he will be a scapegoat. His current friendship and business partnership with Lebron would make it odd
There is no doubt Shaq is not a fan of Stephen A......on the other network (and I totally agree)
JJ Reddick is not slick. We know you and clutch are in bed there’s no reason to pretend. I miss the days of objective-esque sports analyst. “Jordan watered down” “LeBron prolific, longevity. I don’t CARE… but” Shaq says Kobe in the convo… *crickets
😂what people dont understand is hard foul doesnr make the game harder to play. Its not like only one guy is allow to fould hard, remember other can kick your ass too. So its actually a level playing field. It mean it doesnt matter which era soft or hard, in fact, the soft era is harder because you cant hard foul to make up for your lack of skills. 😅
RodMan
JJ is so full of himself😂🤣.
Shaq is a dawg man!!!
Tough, physical basketball is not always the best way to play ball. I'd rather watch smart plays that flow really well instead of mfs that can't control their emotion and just body everybody cause that's all they know.
Charlotte better not hire him. How do you speak expertly on something you didn't see? That's like me speaking on the ABA against the NBA, I didn't see the ABA, I just heard they got down. You don't hand the keys of a franchise to someone who lacks foundational level common sense
Mj goat 🐐 1 Kobe 2nd Lebron top 15 No 3 peats Bronze 🥉 medalist x2 twice 3-6 loses in finals
I would have LeBron top 8. Wilt, Kareem, Duncan, Hakeem, and Shaq are not better than LeBron. They're not.
@@thsu8 nah lebron is top 15 now ... 3-6 loses in finals Bronze 🥉 medalist x2 twice Since lebron exposed choking in 4th quarter... It's inevitable ....
@@aurelionsolph What about Duncan choking a 2-footer over 6'7" Shane Battier to hand LBJ the 2013 chip? What about Duncan missing 6 straight FTs and a layup at the buzzer before Horry bailed him out in Game 5 at Detroit? Kareem missing the playoffs two straight years in his absolute prime. Hakeem having basically a 3 year prime. Wilt averaging 30 in regular season, 22 in playoffs, and 18 in Finals. Wilt is the mentally softest superstar ever. Wilt makes LeBron look mentally tough.
@@thsu8 keep whinning bro... History is done Duncan = 4 rings 90's ballers are plumbers that MJ DESTROYED , duncan destroyed lebron Lebron = 3-6 loses in finals in his prime, with all star hand pick teammates and still LOSE You cannot change history by WHINNING CRYING ARGUING TANTRUMING EVERYDAY Cut it out... Lebron is done out of the conversation .... I'll ignore you after this, thanks
Guess what shaq nobody could play with you man that’s just facts
JJ always got a biggity ora
I’m a black dude from the hood and I like hearing JJ talk ball. Bc IYKYK
Goat debate is stupid. Jordan was one of the first undeniable goats and set the standard, bron did it in is own way and now became the 2nd undeniable goat. There’s so many others as well. Kobe Kareem Duncan Wilt etc. we just need to appreciate greatness while it’s here.
Wilt, Russell, Kareem were the first goats. Jordan just made a better case. I’d also like to know what makes an “undeniable goat” in your eyes
@@dustierbottoms Exactly. Jordan was considered the GOAT despite Kareem's much longer career. As you stated, Jordan just made a better case. You can see it in the NFL when it was Joe Montana vs Tom Brady. Brady went on to win more rings, with one under a different coach, and the argument for Joe Montana died down.
goat means greatest😂 cant have two greatest of all time
@@conchobar that works only if a better case can be made. Im a Montana guy, I hated Brady, but sadly, I no longer can deny Brady being the goat. If I had to win one game, I still take Montana. But Brady is the goat. Jerry rice is the goat WR…and we’ve had a lot of players after him and people make cases on their behalf (megatron, moss, TO). But none are close to rice. Just like Bron isn’t close to Jordan. Is bron a goat of his generation? For some of it yes…just like shaq was, or Duncan, or Kobe, then Bron, now jokic. That’s why I asked…what makes someone an undeniable goat?
@@stein4866 he’s actually right..,if you break it down, you can’t have two goats. I should’ve just said best player of the generation.
LeBron could play untill is 80 and he still would be miles away from being the best of all times.Not even with the help of ESPN, or some other " experts" out there.
jj_redick Today's @NBA Team's Have Absolutely #NOTHING On The #MichaelJordan #Era #NOTHING I Would Rather Sit And Watch #MichaelJordan And #ScottiePippen And @MagicJohnson And #KobeBryant And #Shaq Play On Video Rather Than Buy A Ticket To See #LeQueen And Anthony Davis Play At Any Game #PERIOD There's #NOTHING About Them That Speaks #GREATNESS Their Not Tuff Enough To Run Full Court All Day Long From #SunUp To #SunDown They Just Don't Have The Same #Mentality Now As They Did Back Then .
Half of Shaq's stories are made up, but they are entertaining.
MJ NEVER HAD A PLAY IN 😭😭😭😭
Only missing the playoffs and first round exits against Larry Bird to remind you. Not seeing the light of day in playoffs during Wizard days🥴
@@LeBronFan-to5hh bron got swept in the finals 😭😭😭nuff said but actually bron lost in the first round multiple times he’s a bum fr
@@onlyy1travYou call the still playing $biilionaire a bum and what are you, a nobody, a piece of 💩?
@@onlyy1trav read my first post old head🤭🥴😂
@@onlyy1trav He never won anything until Pipen and the Zen Master couch Phil Jackson arrived in Bulls team. Sweep and first round exits against Bird for the record😂 No playoffs during Wizard days🥴🫣
👍🏿👍🏻❤ 🤣😂😳🥺🥲😢 Maaf
Reddick says what he says to get clicks and press. Period. Ignore him.
Yet here you are lol
12k views in 2 days? No one cares about u JJ Redick, a Lebron muppet
JJ is intellectually dishonest when he discounts the physicality of the older eras, yet completely ignores the excessive carrying, double dribbles, and travelling allowed in this era. Lebron would have to change his play style if he were officiated by late 90s refs.
yup!
He played in the NBA tho, he had valid points
I think that’s how every era looks at each other to be honest. Also I think every basketball player knows they carry. Smitty has a move named The Smitty, but he even came out years later saying it’s a bit of carry. Plus if they called all of the carries and double dribbles in todays game it would then be like 5 hours 😂.
True... 😂🤣 Jj reddick is just a BUM like lebron 😂🤣
nerd
JJ is sooooo Wack Shaq , please don't have him on your pod cast ever again
JJ Reddick is just one of the many LeBum straw man. They've got 1 goal and that's hyping up their queen by disrespecting and downplaying other players and history.
Nobody will ever agree so this is a useless argument, also the game is softer now compared now .
Anything with J.J. Reddick talking about basketball gets ignored. He's dishonest. Now if J.J. stats a plumbing channel, I'll watch that.
Ant man could've played in 90s. Shaq would've have been a great player in the 80s. The 80s was rough. The 90s got soft to try and get mj to last longer.
I swer to God, I' m not a hater. JJ Redick doesn' t understand much of the game or he is tryng/forcing to impose a wrong narrative. What a douche!!
