People don't understand And1 era basketball. Was legendary thanks Professor for the memories
I have AND1 game from Playstation 2, thats how i met AND1.
Actually pre Professor And1 was really where it was at. I was hooping in high school when And 1 Mixtape Vol 1 dropped and everyone was hyped. This was pre youtube and pre internet so people didnt know about these moves unless you were really out there playing street ball.
Who doesn’t understand?
@@destinationlimbo378 some folks didn't expect him on the show given he didn't play in ncaa or nba
Around 20 yrs ago, small city in Eastern Europe: imagine the surprised look on a face of a young teenager fascinated with basketball who accidentally found a black unsigned plate in the CD drive of a PC while surfing the webs on an hourly base in an Internet-Cafe. Low res mixtapes of local streetball squads (Kaliski, Goleniowski) as well as short individual clips of forgotten hoopers. But, most importantly, first And1 Mixtapes with the impeccable soundtracks imprinted in my brain to this day. Shout-out to the old times, when we hooped till the sun went down and dribbled the ball all the way back home! Much love from Europe.
Love this shit. Love how KG has validated(true hoopers already knew) just how cold the professor is. So much respect for these two legends. KG just put a stamp on the God Father of streetball. Love you Big Ticket
STAMPED 💯
Not throwing shade at the man cause he got game. But there was a dozen more And 1 players who had way more game.
@Iliketurtles.....no doubt could not agree more many of the OG AND 1 players much better than Professor..... hands down though most popular was Professor and Professor only one still repping and hell if KG calls him that who am I to argue
Ay all jokes aside that boy prof was the truth. Imagine if he would have got his shot in the league.
@@WestRainJay Rafer was 10x the player proffesor was and he was a role player. He's an entertaining hooper but no where near talented enough to be in the league.
Professor did not want this to end.
Interview was so tough glad to see legends giving him respect
KG has come on so much over the years. I met him in London on the And1 Tour must have been 1999 or 2000. He stayed and spoke to everyone there, he signed everything and didnt leave until the job was done. We were one of the last people to speak to him and he was still 100% committed. He asked how I was and what I was doing in London. He came across that he wanted to be there. Watching him over the years he has such a bright future ahead of him.
Awesome story to hear, go kg
🙏🏾
Did not want this to end. Love Professors top 5 and they winning that 20 mill
The Professor made "And 1" relevant to the masses. Because he is not black, not tall and not muscley.
at what time did he start talking about top 5?
"Bro I'm so humbled! That's crazy!" You can tell how honored he was to get that compliment from the legend KG. How can you not love Professor.
This what's is all about. Seeing legends and true lovers in the game in one room!classic
True lovers pause
All these collabs with KG and Professor together gonna be EPIC!
KG IS FINALLY BACK! 🎟️
Unbelievable vision by KG and his team to put the Professor on such a big stage!
👊👍
Big stage? Professor has 7.6 mil followers on RUclips and showtime basketball has 750K followers. I came to showtime to watch the professor not the other way around.
You got it backwards. But yeah good look out by KG.
I bet it was an NBA deal to have them together
KG is the guy that you want to hang out on daily basis! Such humbled, chill and humorous dude!
Both these guys are great. KG is a really funny, entertaining guy. I hope he one day joins the TBT crew.
Glad I got to live thru the And1 era 🤟🏼💯 A.O. Main Event The Professor Bone Collector and Escalade were my favorites
bone collector was after but he nice too. alimoe, 50, the pharmacist, hot sauce etc.. legendary crew
Was special getting the latest And1 VHS tape and watching with your friends 👍
Alimoe (R.I.P.) & A.O. Was the coldest ones on the court every time they laced em up.
I agree I'm so glad I got to live through it, watching it late night on ESPN2. Skip was always my favorite, that whole time was special and everyone was at the ballfield trying to do the moves we saw. And1 was the shit.
Hot Sauce was cold ❄ with the dribbles and shake and bake moves.
KG deserves all the respect in the world for his interviewing skills. You can tell he really wants to know the answers. Love his intensity.
Broke his ankles and dislocated the shoulder damm 😂🎉
AMAZING episode!! Not only you had one of my top 2 favorite NBA players all time (1a. KG, 1b AI) along with Professor who I not only love, but absolutely love the And1 era (own all mixtapes) and love everything Professor has accomplished! So so good…didn’t want episode to end.
KG is a class act. Wish he could have won one for the Timber puppies but glad he got his championship either way!
He was a hell of a player but he sounds illiterate lol
He still might get his chance. If Glen Taylor gets out of ownership as soon as possible, maybe he'll make his return in some form... at least for the love of GOD to get his jersey retired. The best player that franchise has ever seen and Boston beat them to it....
Illiterate but reading a teleprompter???
Professor never ceases to amaze me with his interviews. He tells great stories. Never spirals out of the direction. Well spoken every time!
professor a legend
I love KG. His passion and competitiveness is 100%. Miss that type of passion. Much love
KG one of the greatest and the professor one of the guys that brought a lot of people into the basketball world and entertained a lot of us. You know the professor is real when KG gives you those props.
KG is all about real talk. Great interview on both sides. I had no clue how deep KG was in tune with all the different types of sports.
You da man Big Ticket. Way to let them non-believers know cuz if you did not know now you know.... Professor is legit
"Big ticket" ha i ain't heard that name in a long azz time lol
This is crazy validation for The Professor. Mega props to KG.
Love KG for this man . Growing up watching and 1 and even going to the tryouts to see my fav street ballers will always be special memories forever in my life. KG the realest
Damn we old the professor always had that baby face now he's looking matured. Man them And 1 days was crazy!!!
KG is so good at these style interviews because he is a fan of a bunch of different sports so he can make conversations flow around to different references and relationships to other cultures and sports. It is super interesting. I would have never thought he was such a big soccer or tennis fan but Im glad that he is. Gives a ton of perspective on the freestyle movements around the world.
Great episode, love KG’s energy and enthusiasm for what The Professor has done and is still doing!
KG’s energy is just fire reminds me a lot of my self 🎞️💥🤯 healthy convo had to rewind so many parts .. these guys in my generation heavy 🥇🥇🥇
Epic seeing KG & Professor. KG is a straight up LEGEND. KG & Professor get Rafer Alston on an interview too!
The basketball Eminem !
I would love to see Professor in the BIG3
KG knowledge and appreciation of streetball is respectful. Thank you
Shit man KG getting good at interviewing. Thoughtful questions, letting the guest speak, digging deeper on stories ... impressed. Love you Ticket!
My boy over there wearing shaqs jacket!!!!
This guy journey always inspires me. So many jems in the interview from mindset to dedication to having faith and always being humble. I'm so glad I grew up on KG and Professor wow wow wow
one-on-one's in the all-star game would be electric. Also respect to KG for shouting out Wilt and Russell. Wilt was a world class athlete. Fast as hell, could high jump 6'6", strong as hell, and could ball. He could play and dominate in any era
Russell was ranked #7 in the world in high jump
Two super-cool Bros who just love basketball. A pleasure to watch them talk hoops, especially the history of Street Ball.
Kevin Garnett looks like he can a double double for a team right now, a productive 12-15 minutes.
It’s crazy to see really how much bigger and taller nba players are then the professor.. and he is listed at 5’10.. which is around average height..
Kevin Garnett is 7ft so he’s a foot taller
@@hamzaahmed3066 you right … I bet even the “ smallest players “ are a lot bigger .. they just look small compared too other nba players lol -- I think d miles said this on all the smoke.. Steph curry episode
you also got guys like Allen Iverson, Nate Robinson, Steve Nash..etc
@@chibill467don't forget the shortest NBA player EVER with the heart of a Lion and the "never say Can't" attitude -- the legendary Tyrone "Muggsy" Bogues proved that even a 5"3" dude could ball professionally!
This is fire to have the professor on
Salute, KG! You hit em rite in the sternum with this one! Religiously watch your podcast- also religiously watched And1! Everyday 7:00am to 8:00am on ESPN then Sportscenter, around 2003-2004 . Great work! Thank you.
I love KG..he is the realest dude in basketball.. bro definitely stay true to his roots
Great video. KG is great at interviews.
Great interview. Thanks for bringing This street all legend on the show. Love the back stories.
KG got me amped! Love these guys
Shout out to the Big Ticket for cricket! Basketball and cricket player here.
Best KG certified to date!
Professor the Godson of Streetball. Duke Tango said so! 😅 Love the And1 days when Duke called Professor his godson. Now Professor the only one leading the way on a large scale from all them players back in the day. Proud of The Professor as the day is long. Walking in purpose, doing big things, giving thanks to God along the way. That's my dude.
Street legend I remember when he was just trying out for and 1 and look at him proud of all that he has accomplished
Gotta respect the Professor for his drive and hustle. Going from a global platform to broke, that's gotta be tough on the soul. And now look at him!
Facts! It’s almost impossible to find a run outdoors anymore
Dislocating a man shoulder on a cross over is crazy LMAO
I seen that when he posted it.
Lol that would be me trying to guard him
Love to see a new KG video!!!!
Loved this video from beginning to end!!!! Both true legends and entertaining as hell!!!! 💪💪👏👏
1:22:07 HILARIOUS 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 KG IS THE BEST STORY TELLER IN THE NBA FACTO
Yeah him and Iman Shumperts stories be hilarious and detailed too.
Why did this remind me of the Chappelle's Show Real World episode when KG walked in hahah
Everyone remembers that Iverson crossover commercial
That haircut though lol. I really like the professor, and KG is always great
Imagine a KG+Snoop 1st round playoff commentary back and forth 😂
I literally watch AND1 episodes to sleep every night 😂 It just reminds me of such a good time. I was a kid when I saw them hit the scene blazing. Couldn’t wait to see them on ESPN. With their own show. They took over the basketball world so much. Was in competition with the NBA. Had Nike so scared that they took their style for that memorable dribble commercial. Sold out arenas and all. They were once rockstars. And forever legends.
🏀💯
Bring streetball back like it is 2004. And I want my knees back too.
KG is so good at this. Showtime I hope y’all truly understand the gem y’all have!
And1 was the reason I got into basketball in the first place and why I'm such a big fan of the NBA and basketball today. As a kid it was so exciting seeing guys like the Professor and Hot Sauce do their thing
Love the chemistry KG n Professor have💯 u can tell they actually rock with each other off the court too
Now That, was a great great interview. Hearing KG 🙏🏾 interviewing the Professor🙏🏾, talking about his life and how it all came to be...,man, you guys made me smile man. Love and ✌🏾 to all of you.
I love how professor talks about and 1 like a kid. Love
Ooo baby professor 🎉
Put the women and children to bed!
6:15 that was the first thing that came to mind when KG said he was gonna go to The Professor’s spot instead LOL. if i had the money, i’d do the exact same thing too. its a really cool and fun idea.
Lesssgo Gray! This is big time! 🔥🔥
Jamal Crawford killer handles
The professor is him in the and1 world. My first impression when I saw him walk on the court was his handles gotta be crazy and he didn't disappoint at all. He was so little that I new offense is what got him a shot. I been loving his game every since. He a 🐐 now.
I would have never guessed KG would be so good as a host and podcast/interviewer but he really is one of the best.
When KG asked about tricks coming to other sports I immediately thought of Chapelle show hahahaha then they mentioned it!!! 😂
Professor took streetball and basketball artistry to it's greatest heights
Legend
Just shows you don't have to be an NBA star to make your mark as a legendary basketball player
Professor is goated, handles for days
NBA street Vol. 2 Yes bring it back with updated version. With the top 75 players, current players and maybe top street ball legends as the king of the court to unlock it as you progress through the game would be legit‼️ then the online games you could play would be huge too‼️ we need it let’s go EA Sports step up to the plate
KG got them prosthetic legs on.
🤣🤣
LMAO
KG stay showing love. Pivot podcast and KG certified favorites
This was a great interview man
Crazy to see both of you GOATs sharing stories, love & respect 4 eaach other.
Mad humbled & stoked 2 experience both of you.
Pls stay at it, keep on gettin it. Always looked up to both of you. Being 39 years old you guys still inspire me 2 keep on hoopin and improve not only my game but also my life itself. Mad love 4 you guys. Peace
Two awesome guys - professor says “anything is posssssible!!!
Maaaaan, saw the Professor on the ANd1 Australian tour, TWICE
Professor did not miss a shot in 2 games, 100% from the field plus of course the highlights we al love
KG showing love - makes me happy
KG is an uncut gem!😁🙏☦️😉
Two legends !
Professor dressed like 2003 😂😂 #legend
So KG let professor wear his CELTICS jacket before the interview. NICE! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The disrespect for And1 is crazy. Those guys worked hard and was actually doing summer leagues and workouts to be in the league while also hustlin in and1 creating opportunities for the youth and elevating the game of basketball in a crazy way.
this is so random but i'm a control systems engineer and was listening to this in the background, looking for the value of an alarm setpoint I needed to assign, and read on the chart that it was 25% at the exact same moment the professor said "you put it at 25%" at 52:33 lmao thanks professor 🙏
The CHAMP is back!
Im the same age as the professor. He grew up few miles down the road from me in Oregon. Professor been doing his thing for like 20 years. Dont think he jus a streetballer, The Professor is a student of the game and can hoop all around.
I meet the professor in 03 in atl and 1 meet and greet thing tiny white dude big smile I would watch his ball skills and copy I honestly believe that’s the reason I started my last three years of high school one year at college big ups. You’re always welcome in Appalachia peace be to journey much love.
ANYTHINGS POSSIBLE
So cool the professor's continued ballin' like crazy for so many years. I found out about him when he was doing the spiderman park 1s years ago, he's so awesome
KG could definitely battle rap.. no debating
😂😂 his energy is crazy
Basketballs DMX
he was barking too
@professorlive @bigticket these dudes are some of my favorite hoopers of all time! Can't wait to see more content!
You got the professor in front of you you about to get a straight A 🔥😂
KG is what you want your Heroes to act like.
Such a Classy Guy
Love how kg is putting him on with the important people in the back to push his stuff
Proff stuck in the 90s in that huge jacket! I respect it tho!
