  1. In over 25 years of watching sports, I have NEVER been more angry at that TERRIBLE officiating in 2010 game 7. NEVER. Till the day I die, even if I am tortured by the CIA or some other organization I will hold the opinion that the refs were paid off and made a shitload of insider money…

    KG is a proud guy and gives guys credit, but you know he KNOWS he got screwed. 34:35.

    I STILL get angry about that. Pau flopping. Kobe playing like trash and getting bailed out.

    FUCK

  2. Get a room Brian!…."Ticket this…Ticket that…" LOL…calm down bro… We get it…. he was good thanks for the Revelation LOL

  3. SALUTE to Isiah Thomas the Realest Mentor OG. Some people hate on Isiah because of the beef between him and MJ. Also, being the leader of the Bad Boy Pistons. However, people that really know him, know he is caring, giving, classy, professional, great business man. educated, high basketball IQ, and a surviver. One day, when his documentary premiere it will be eye opening. I Thomas is a part of black NBA history. Kudos for KD showing love for how Isiah gave him the blueprint to enter the NBA.

  4. KD where is the KD merch. I believe the Celtics will get to the finals and I believe your pregame mindset and dawg mentality if possible they allow you to be involved could seal the championship.

  5. This was so awesome. Love how Scal ends up interviewing KG. If KG was around in Medieval Times he would be known as KG the Conquerer.

  6. Always funny hearing them say ‘Ubuntu’, as a Zulu, from which the term originates. Fills me with pride but also funny af because they never pronounce it correctly.

  7. I like these 2 together breaking down X's, O's, and everything in between. Scal as a commentator breaks plays down well too. Joe Mazzulla All-Star head coach for the season? That's alright but is he going to be a rookie head coach getting COTY?

  8. I saw Scal hit like 30 threes in a row at a Nets game once at halftime. Yes. That’s how good these guys are. I’m not even kidding, I had to do a double take since he hadn’t even played yet so I was wondering why he never played but it’s because everyone is on that elite level and minutes are at a premium in the NBA. Glad he went on to have a long solid NBA career.

    If you ever think “man who is this guy I can take him” no you can’t, even on his worst day and your best day.

    The Scallenge was legendary. Respect to the White Mamba.

  9. 35:55 Scal spittin straight facts.

    Yes. Stop anointing 1 way players as stats or MVPs.

    I’ll make a list

    1. Ja is not a superstar he plays 0 defense
    2. Luka, he not legend, no defense and takes wild step back 3s every other play.
    3. D Book, sorry he only scores, haven’t seen him sliding those puppies or locking anyone down.
    4. Trae young, sorry he only scores.

    And then the discussion on one on one play was spot on. This is exactly how I feel when I watch these players play one on one and then jack up terrible, contested, off balance, low percentage step back shots to avoid the shot clock. Some players are sneaky too they pass it at the last second so the role player takes the fall for their bad 10-15 seconds and lower their percentages instead of the “star” player that should’ve just jacked it up and taken the fall himself. (All this while his 4 teammates just stand around with 0 ball movement).

  10. I'm with you KG! That Finals loss in 2010 bothers me as well! The refereeing in that game was horrendous! But I hated that Paul & Ray game offensively didn't show up. You, Rondo, & Rasheed ( until he fouled out) brought it and was 2-3 possessions away from another title!
