I like any interview that Dame does because it never feels like he’s trying to be politically correct. He’s just straightforward and honest and he’s with you.
That’s something I respect about him as a person he doesn’t feel the need to talk himself up he lets his work speak for him and doesn’t downplay his shortcomings either always knows when he needs to be better
The way Dame described seeing MJ walk out the hallway in the top 75 ceremony kinda reminds me of Iverson's HOF speech when he was describing what it felt like seeing MJ for the first time.
Answer said he thought Mike was glowing lol Mike had the shoes and the aura just walking into the game. His Airness def was on for that game even though he gets crossed by AI😅
Great episode. D-Miles interviewing skills are getting top tier. His questions, quick rebuttals, timing, ability to let the guests speak. I'm impressed.
@@aa6973Jamal and joker work, embiid and maxey are working, so what’s the problem, as soon as Giannis stops trying to bring the ball up court and figure out how to get easier points on the block then they’ll click frfr
@@aa6973 that’s how it always works. tf u talkin about? lebron and wade took two seasons to work. shaq and kobe took multiple seasons to develop. they have a new coach a new duo and a new bench. and they’re still 11-5. give it time
This is exactly why The Knuckleheads. All the Smoke, Gil's Arena, etcetera, are needed! Damien Lillard is a true Professional and speaks clearly about his value system consistently. When he says that he was willing to ride things out with PDX, I believe he was being genuine. Not once did he trash Portland, the Organization, the City or it's fans. He spoke of his time in Portland with respect and dignity... The interview also tells you something about Dame's relationship with The Knuckleheads. He could have shared this with anyone and chose them. Mad props! Impressed with how far D. Miles has come as an interviewer and for Q. Richardson giving him the latitude to run with it. No ego on Q's part! True friendship and love! Big props to both Dame and The Knuckleheads!
@Kingbossdon Yes, that's true, I forgot to mention that he had been on thier podcast before. If I remember correctly, Dame was one of thier earlier guest! Which goes to validate my point; Dame felt/feels comfortable with The Knuckleheads to share his thoughts about his summer. I'll repeat my earlier statement, it's important for these athlete driven podcasts for the current and past players to go to explain/express thier thoughts, intentions and positions...
Love dame. He made me a portland fan now im a buck fan. Great interview. Knuckleheads deserve more love because yall show was the 1st bball podcast and u are still going strong. Congrats❤
Blazers fan for life…I remember watching dame in summer league and I’m like this dude is gonna be rookie of the year.He’s special.He’s always poised,plays the game at his own speed.I hope he gets one with the bucks
Same.and I hope he can do what Clyde Drexler(my favorite player of all time) did and win a ring after leaving.just like I did for Clyde I will root for Dame even when he plays against the Blazers cause Dame is the second person to play for the Blazers that I like more than the team itself.Clyde Drexler being the first.
As a bucks fan i´m more concerned for the playoffs and how the defence evolve..cus you can´t outscore every opponent!jrue should been kept for using him at the 2 and vice versa for dame
Thank you for uploading this on thanksgiving, i unfortunately don’t have one to go to this year and this was my thanksgiving dinner 😊 thanks again knuckleheads ❤
Awesome bubble stories. I hope we the hoopers will someday also give kudos to the staff who made that whole ish possible. Not only were players separated from their families, but you have to imagine how difficult it was for all the ppl behind the scenes building the courts, clinics, safety measures, etc. real champs there
YA'll killing it with guests again this year! If you can't learn from Dame, you not listening. I'd love to hear him talk ball...the details of angles, speed changes, and shooting.
Knuckleheads was one of the first to do it and still dropping good interviews..Nash got that work, went to the sideline, made a pillow and went to sleep
Funny how that top 75 discussion didn't involve LeBron but all about MJ. The top heads not looking at Lebron like that even with his stats they still aren't focusing on him while LeBron will likely be considered A great I don’t see the “All time” part. #Jordan 1s!!!!
Looking back at that time, the Lakers really had the best squad in the bubble. Lebron,AD,Rondo,Dwight,KCP,Caruso,Kuzma,McGee. I dont understand why they blew up it next year.
The reason why haters are discrediting the bubble championship is that Lebron won it. but real players knew how fun and competitive the game was. Clips blew a 3-1 lead; Heat Upsets bucks. Haters are going to hate whatever you do.
No lol no matter who won itd be questionable. But because kobe died,and lakers/nba did everything in power to remind us every 5 seconds through lebron mimicing kobes mannerisms or sayings every win and then acting as if it was the hardest
Another sensitive player stan trying to rewrite the narrative to protect their boyfriend. People were complaining about the Bubble before it even started. No crowd, no home and away travel, a long break before it started which allowed players to get way more rest and recuperation than normal. Stop getting so emotionally invested in defending players that it makes you invent a persecution complex.
Exactly. We all know why people are trying to discredit it. All the teams had to go through the same stuff so it's obviously some hating going on if you're saying it doesn't count.
11:35 Dame has a great point here, players like Donovan Mitchell and Jamal Murray were so elite in the bubble and it prob has a lot to do with being extremely sharp because of the isolation
I’m glad Dame said an asterisk for the bubble year is BS. When the bubble started I told friends it was going to be best championship because everyone inside was focused on their craft with no outside distractions. As former military my most memorable times were deployments to our “bubble”. Nobody ever says “combat deployments don’t count because you didn’t have to worry about home, family TDY travel, etc.” When you’re on deployment for 45-359 days you were with your team all the time (chow, gym, ‘practice’, ‘game day’, ‘off-day’, etc.). So come ‘game-day’ when you suited up at the squadron you just felt everyone was on point as opposed to being back home where some days Joe might be half-assing because he’s going thru divorce, Bob’s is not sharp because he was at hospital all-night when son’s collarbone got broken at football practice an so-on. And even more reason why NBA bubble was sharpest player competition is because unlike deployments, the bubble players got to observe their “enemy’s” pattern of life, tendencies and in-game play along with having the same refs everyday so it was literally skill-vs-skill and strategy-vs-strategy.
Man the days of FOBs still lets me know anything is possible when you locked in with your crew or 4 or 12 when it’s go time it’s super sharp when you locked in
I won't lie ... the way he's describing the quality of play in the Bubble ... I really wouldn't mind if they restricted the playoffs to a bubble tournament. Just the playoffs - not the finals.
Eddie Jones especially. We haven't seen or heard from that dude since he retired. We never even heard from him when Kobe died considering he was one of the key figures in Kobe's early career.
I met Dame last year at my job in Chicago at Saks Fifth he was in town for the draft lottery, bro one of the realist niggas you goint meet I talked wit him and everything bro had no security wit him either
Miss this on the blazers. He was definitely a Icon for the blazers I still don’t understand why the front office didn’t want continue building around him
I love me some Dame, too. It would be interesting if we stayed in the five spot in the draft. If Scoot was off the table and we got say, Amen instead, things might be different. I truly believe the universe dictated the Blazer's next chapter. Honestly, I don't think we could have assembled a team in two or three years that could compete with Denver, Phoenix, Boston..and ironically Milwaukee. In the end, I love that Dame has a chance with the Buc's to win a chip. Hard to find someone more deserving.
I like any interview that Dame does because it never feels like he’s trying to be politically correct. He’s just straightforward and honest and he’s with you.
I agree with this. He's funny at time too.
Oh that's just Town.
That’s something I respect about him as a person he doesn’t feel the need to talk himself up he lets his work speak for him and doesn’t downplay his shortcomings either always knows when he needs to be better
yes that's true
31:29 MJ part... 🔥🔥🔥

He’s the best sports podcast guy right now to me

I love Dame's story about the top 75. Mentioning Magic and Isiah. Hard to find two greater.
That Jordan segment was hilarious!
🗣Yo yo yo, we Liiive on location. Salute to the knuckleheads for the continued success , and Dame Dolla for the 2x ep, great story teller.
Dame admitting he didn't feel he deserved it over Tmac, Vince and Dwight was big.. Props to him for that
never said that
N just because he did say that makes me consider him rightfully being there before them
Love dame. He made me a portland fan now im a buck fan. Great interview. Knuckleheads deserve more love because yall show was the 1st bball podcast and u are still going strong. Congrats❤

Travel brother. That’s the best to do when you spend holidays alone. Take time to travel somewhere and treat yourself
Thanks Dame for doing this interview and I am glad you’re in Milwaukee on the Bucks!!!
We need a Monta episode
Been saying. But glad to see Dame for sure.
Facts
Yes!
Get Tae on and some old school euros...
That would be fire

So crazy
LOVE DAME!!!!! such a beautiful shot when he throws like his back and shoulders and arms, he throws them so far back in his shot is so awesome
Love the Bucks representation on the sweatshirt dame. You know the city got your back 🔥💪
Great interview. Always have been a Dame fan and now that he's in Milwaukee absolutely love it. #feartheDEER #dametime
The stars look up to MJ stop capping debating him with any other player recognize and appreciate the greatest
Everybody gets passed up eventually 👑
@@longlivedagoat3109 love that man more than the game a tru fanboy indeed
@longlivedagoat3109 Im a Pistons fan and fan of LBJ... but I seen Jordan... he was better than all of them! Nobody passed him up
“I still ain’t met Jordan.”😭😭😂🤣
If ya can get MJ on there to talk that’s Legendary to this podcast like uff 🔥
YA'll killing it with guests again this year! If you can't learn from Dame, you not listening. I'd love to hear him talk ball...the details of angles, speed changes, and shooting.

Darius Miles was so fn awesome when he first came to Portland, it’s a drag most people just remember him sitting on the bench eating popcorn.

This 3:52 is really how I was feeling during the pandemic shutdown too. I was chillin' with fam, watching tv, truly having a great time lol
Great interview guys
Covid & Bubble talk is wiiild. Dame always a smooth listen on both mics 🎤🎙️
Dame said what I’ve been saying about the Bubble. Folks were playing their best ball in the Bubble. And the Lakers came out on top.
Looking back at that time, the Lakers really had the best squad in the bubble. Lebron,AD,Rondo,Dwight,KCP,Caruso,Kuzma,McGee. I dont understand why they blew up it next year.
@tsvetomirkrastev6651 they had to pay all those players and that was not possible
Everyone playing at their best, everyone under the same circumstances and “disadvantages” . No excuses for that.
Yes by far everyone was on their best game.. And most healthy coming off the pause of the season
Yeah! The bubble favor the old and the always injured.
32:19 “I still ain’t never met him” lmaooooooooooooooo
The reason why haters are discrediting the bubble championship is that Lebron won it. but real players knew how fun and competitive the game was. Clips blew a 3-1 lead; Heat Upsets bucks. Haters are going to hate whatever you do.
Phoenix was on a tear too, going 8-0. Even though they didn't make the playoffs, you can't tell me they were not playing with purpose.
No lol no matter who won itd be questionable. But because kobe died,and lakers/nba did everything in power to remind us every 5 seconds through lebron mimicing kobes mannerisms or sayings every win and then acting as if it was the hardest

great interview!
I love that he mentioned Tre Mann, I luv his game. Cam Whitmore down in Houston is nice.
I love this podcast, but they kill me when they over-explain their question lol.
This! Or end up answering the Q for the person. Smh
Dame is so real so glad he's in Milwaukee
I love you guys! Kicking it hard..dropping word…
Bubble had the best camera perspective ever. Court side angle for TV
I won't lie ... the way he's describing the quality of play in the Bubble ... I really wouldn't mind if they restricted the playoffs to a bubble tournament. Just the playoffs - not the finals.
The bubble did have the best quality of play and most even playing field I’ve seen.. but it don’t make enough money without Playoff ticket sales
This interview's already a classic
Great interview again
get jeff teague funny ass on the show
We need a Eddie Jones and baron Davis episode
Eddie Jones especially. We haven't seen or heard from that dude since he retired. We never even heard from him when Kobe died considering he was one of the key figures in Kobe's early career.
Eddie Jones popped in my head earlier this week when I went to Bsktbllreference & EJ page & im like he need a KH episode now yall sayin it 🫡..
Shoutout D Miles man. I remember when I was younger u come through to my neighborhood a couple times in Portland and played catch with us.

That first question was wild. Dame is a friend of the Mase and Cam show, so he definitely should've hit the pause button on that one. Ha

You just can’t have a conversation about basketball without talking about Kobe Bryant , legend .
Yes you can, if you’re talking about MJ.
