I love the stories, quick question. I thought the OGs sat in their day they weren't working out or playing together in the off season and being friendly? Tim told multiple stories, about NBA guys from different teams getting together. Stak and Matt have as well in UCLA. Why is it now that its a bad thing for these guys to do the same thing?
I'm my mind I want to say Tim Hardaway is Top 5 best crossovers in NBA history...Chi town finest definitely 1 of my favorites to watch.. dude was a "BEAST"... "CERTIFIED LEGEND" 1 of the best to ever touch a basketball.. new generation go watch this man highlights & take notes 🏀🏀🏀
Tim is one of my fav players. I remember when the all star game was happening and we was kids outside the area when they walk into the facility the players are walking by, Penny, Zo, on and on and we was asking for autographs and high fives and all of them walked past like we wasn’t even there and then Tim hardaway walks by and he’s on his cell phone and stops and says I have to call you back. Hung up his phone and gave us all autographs. Fives. Spoke to us for a couple of minutes and then went on. Shows a different level of appreciation he had for the fans over the other players.
Great video Hardaway is one of my favorite players of all time! I watched Hardaway dominate the 1989 WAC Tournament! Nobody could guard him he was levels above anybody UTEP played against. I initially became a fan at the 1988 WAC Tournament when in the semifinal UTEP beat BYU IN an overtime thriller!
Love you see Mr. Hardaway in great health. I played him 1 on 1 at Don Nelson's basketball camp. Amazing memories of their RUN TMC days. Even crazier is that he randomly said I resemble his son. Thanks for your Time.
It’s UTEP Two-Step. Tim Hardaway will always be my favorite player. I remember watching him play at UTEP on the late 80s with Don Haskins. Hardaway, Jeep Jackson, Anthony Davis, Greg Foster. Those were great teams.
The "UTEP 2 Step" man Tim Hardaway was tough Man was 5'11 or 6 ft tall but he was a PROBLEM, quick, fast and strong, could get you 20+ pts and 10ast every night!
He also was the true victim by not being picked for the Dream Team despite being better than Zeke , Stockton at the time. Zeke was scarred because he had been one of the best for years but Tim was the young guy killing & was snubbed .
@@Supreme36074 I can't take nothing from T Hardwaway , i was there, when he came out at half time, in highschool, with Carver being down, he came out, had Manley hs, star players foul out, he led Carver down State, i'm from the block, I Thomas came from in Chicago, it's not because were from the same block, but saying, he's better than Isiah Thomas, anybody have they're own opinion, i always say, they're 1 and 1a, 1 young man, texted me, and said Derrick Rose, way the best point out of Chicago, i'm cool with that, it's his opinion, and he was a child, or wasn't born, when tim and Isiah, was doing they thing, when the nba was tough.
@@mrshawterry6 I’m not taking anything from him, I’m talking specifically the year they formed the Dream Team. Zeke was a better player however . Slightly.
@saksit247 OK my man, everything cool, we talking like men, I made a mistake, you're right, if I mention Isiah, I'm going to mention Tim's also, Tim was thicker than Isiah, but he would leave defenders staying, Tim and Isiah Thomas had real crossovers, I like A Iverson, great scorer, but his crossover was suspect to me, you can't turn your palm toward the ceiling, then take off, that's carry all day long, anyway, good texting you , you're a straight forward gentleman, were just texting like men, and not cursing at each other, about a sport
Tim Hardaway has always been willing to speak his mind. It makes for a great interview and sometimes controversy. This is the same great interview gents.
In 1996 the Golden State Warriors had their pre-season at our college. My roomate had a staredown with Tim Hardaway. They were blocking each other in a doorway and no one wanted to budge. Let's just say it was 2 on 1 that day
Right. He can sell that to the outside world who didn't watch the Mavs every night. Jr get in the game and he taking his 10 shots. 0/10 or 10/10, it didn't matter 😂 J Kidd should've stood up and told him why but not easy to figure out. You can do that as a #2 option like he used to be but it's tough to be a rotation player that way
Shout out Tim and The Carver Challengers … one of the players i ever seen play in HS … We both are Challengers and i remember the days when i used to see him practicing in the Gym .. i just knew he was going to the league…. it was lit his senior year in HS
My absolute favorite day attending St. John's U was when Mullin brought Tim to campus. Alumni Hall had the doors locked it was vip only I had a front row view
I like where Kobe's legacy ended up. Even if some people leave him out of the GOAT conversation, his mental approach, work ethic, and competitiveness, will endure forever. Impacting both men's and women's sports.
I LOVE N RESPECT THIS, bcuz I'ma early 80s baby n I know the history of Tim b4 Penny🎉🎉no disrespect but Tim was the 1st that made a HARDAWAY the harder way to obtain the respect ❤❤❤❤
I've heard bout Tim Hardaway Sr.He was a beast jus like Jamal Crawford.He began e crossover before Jamal.Idk him but I learned alot from when he played in league then,his teams,struggles,contracts & how he prepared & mentored his son Jr for e Nba now.
STOP IT!!…I knew somebody was gone mention Bron, I knew he would catch a stray as soon as somebody said some people skip over Kobe…Bron didn’t have anything to do with conversation!!!SMH lol…love the show doe!!
Tim is a legend..Can't believe they sent him to Detroit. He was having a productive season. NBA business is nasty..Hope he finds new life. Good interview!!!..👍🏽
With all due respect to you Tim Sr....Jr thought he was in with them folks and started riding Luka too hard and the did to him what they do to the majority of ball players. I hope he gets another opportunity to do what I've watched him do in person many times. Great interview
I believe MJ named Timmy as one of the most clutch players ever. I'm Dub Nation but Timmy cemented his clutch rep in Miami. Healthy Warriors team with Timmy, Mullin, Sprewell, & C-Webb was one of the biggest NBA what-ifs ever..
I just wanna point out that Chicagos GM (who shall remain nameless) passed on drafting Tim Hardaway with the #6 pick in the 89’ draft class n order to take Stacy 🤬 King!!!! We could have had Tim, MJ, and Pippen!!! Or we could have taken SHAWN KEMP and TIMMY paired them with MJ.Pip! Instead we got BJ Armstrong and Stacy… 🤨
Shout out to McDyess for that play in the 2000 olympics. They were about to lose to Lithuania, would have been the biggest upset ever 🤦🏾♂️!! McDyess- one of the greatest athletes and explosive dunkers ever!!!
For those that don’t know, Craig Hodges was a G. He was half Steph Curry half Malcom X. Actually he probably shot the ball better than Steph but 3’s weren’t as part of the game as they are now. There’s only 2 players in the history of the NBA to win the 3 point contest 3 times in a row, Craig Hodges and Larry Bird. Craig Hodges probably could’ve won 4 or 5 in a row but he was “OUT” of league after his 3rd title. Craig Hodges and Steph Curry are both tied for the most shots made in one round with 21 (max 25) Steph did it once in 2021, Craig did it once in 1986, then he did it again in 1991, and then he did it again in the very next round of that same contest in 91. Craig Hodges also still holds the record for the most consecutive shots made in the 3 pt contest with 19 in a row during the ’1991 contest. The next best is 13 in a row by Steph Curry. Craig Hodges played in the NBA for 10 seasons and led the league in 3-point shooting percentage three times. He also won two NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls in ‘91 and ’92.

The Killer Cross over

Tim told multiple stories, about NBA guys from different teams getting together. Stak and Matt have as well in UCLA. Why is it now that its a bad thing for these guys to do the same thing?
Honestly I loved the part where they stopped the interview to show “Big O” Oscar Robertson love when he showed up.
I'm my mind I want to say Tim Hardaway is Top 5 best crossovers in NBA history...Chi town finest definitely 1 of my favorites to watch.. dude was a "BEAST"... "CERTIFIED LEGEND" 1 of the best to ever touch a basketball.. new generation go watch this man highlights & take notes 🏀🏀🏀
Thank you Tim, Mat, and Jackson for not letting people forget Kobe. Jordan and Kobe never let me down they was always so entertaining
Respect to Tim for giving Kobe his flowers 💐

Absolutely! 💯
Would also love to see him and Joakim together on a pod sometime
Naah
Yes pls make it happen Mat & Stak!

One of the best interviews. Love Tim Hardaway
Tim Hardaway is a great interview! A great storyteller too. Needs to be on more podcasts.
Loved watching Tim back in the day
Smoke and knuckleheads keep that feeling going
All-Time favorite list. Thanks.
Tim on here speaking big facts 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Wow really
Penny gave him major problems 😅
@@ItsNodWORST COMMENT IN HERE
Tim Hardaway was an All-Star starter but step aside to let Magic Johnson start when he came back from his HIV drama. Class move.
He also was the true victim by not being picked for the Dream Team despite being better than Zeke , Stockton at the time. Zeke was scarred because he had been one of the best for years but Tim was the young guy killing & was snubbed .

Thank You For The OG Wisdom Tim Hardaway Sr. 🔑🙌🏾💎💎💎💎
love you guys, the show and all your guests. I am sorry I missed you Gs in Chicago
I LOVE hearing stories of the eras when men played in the NBA. That was real basketball.
Loved watching Tim play he had the that cross over that couldn't be stopped
My favorite player growing up!
Tim Hardaway has always been willing to speak his mind. It makes for a great interview and sometimes controversy. This is the same great interview gents.
Tim The OG ‼️‼️
Mr. Crossover Dribble. The UTEP 2 Step. Certified legend.
Dope interview!!! Thank yall!!! Chi Town stand up!!!😊
In 1996 the Golden State Warriors had their pre-season at our college. My roomate had a staredown with Tim Hardaway. They were blocking each other in a doorway and no one wanted to budge. Let's just say it was 2 on 1 that day
my all time favorite player
Tim Hardaway Sr point about Sam Hauser is 100% correct. The Celtics find him immediately when he comes in the game.
Agree luka dribbles too much
We all know why Hardaway Jr wasn’t playing. C’mon now Senior!
No we don’t? Tell us why?
Right. He can sell that to the outside world who didn't watch the Mavs every night. Jr get in the game and he taking his 10 shots. 0/10 or 10/10, it didn't matter 😂
J Kidd should've stood up and told him why but not easy to figure out. You can do that as a #2 option like he used to be but it's tough to be a rotation player that way
@Stanstilly Because he can only shoot and he doesn't even do that well
@@jonnykilroy9762 I’m a Mavs fan who is a fan of Jr. I know all too well how he was producing. J Kidd know what he’s doing.
@@JoshuaMitchell-bey7 Thank you!
Shout out Tim and The Carver Challengers … one of the players i ever seen play in HS … We both are Challengers and i remember the days when i used to see him practicing in the Gym .. i just knew he was going to the league….
it was lit his senior year in HS
Carver Stand Up...Green & Gold
Beef with Sprewell would have been nice to ask tim about
I'll get a copy of the book. Man, time is moving. My Uncle Charles was Hardaway Sr's barber back in the day. #RIPUnc #Chicago #Southside
Damn! I get so annoyed when they interrupt the commercials with bits of interview. I'm trying to hear about my bogus bets.
Excellent interview, looking forward to Mullin
Great show guys, you are getting better and better!
My absolute favorite day attending St. John's U was when Mullin brought Tim to campus. Alumni Hall had the doors locked it was vip only I had a front row view
Tim Hardaway & Mahmoud Abdul Rauf Had Some Epic Battles In College...UTEP VS LSU 💪🏽
Dope interview! Shoutout to the Utep 2 Step!
I like where Kobe's legacy ended up. Even if some people leave him out of the GOAT conversation, his mental approach, work ethic, and competitiveness, will endure forever. Impacting both men's and women's sports.
Great interview one of my favorite players growing up
Did Hardaway call Matt Barnes "Mac Browns" at the 12 minute mark? 😮
That's what I heard.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BOOK BROS!!!!!!!! MORE POWER AND CONTENTS!!!!!!! WAITING FOR VOLUME 2 hehehehe
Underrated is OverUsed
As a Dallas Mavs fans I love his son… he is a great 3nD player and he helped Dallas a lot
This Timmy from the 90's. He found time travel. This dude looks the same as he did when I was playing the original NBA Jams.
RunTMC squad was dangerous in their prime ! Soo talented.
Tim looking like he is in his twenties. Legend!
Beautiful interview 💪🏿💪🏿
My favorite player 🐐
Matt Barnes could do this by himself frfr
That Chris Mullen story 🤯
I LOVE N RESPECT THIS, bcuz I'ma early 80s baby n I know the history of Tim b4 Penny🎉🎉no disrespect but Tim was the 1st that made a HARDAWAY the harder way to obtain the respect ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Tim
My FAVORITE NBA player ❤❤❤❤❤ Timmy ahhhhhhh!!!!!!
When Tim hardaway said go look up "Matt Brown"... Why didn't Matt say hey my name is Barnes not Brown lol
Great show!
Excellent interview
I was at the game when Tim Hardaway played against MJ at IIT. CRAZY!!!..."IN the gyyyym!"
My favorite PG growing up in the bay. I wore number 10 and 5 because of him.
Love the show
1 of my greatest guards. Great interview.
Pause
I love the legends man
Gratitude
Always felt Tim should've been on the '96 olympic team as well
Great content
Tim with the UTEP 2 Step crossover!
Just saw Tim at a Sky Game not too long ago. One of the coolest...

The UTep 2 Step baby 🏀🔥
He was first favorite player growing up watching the Heat…
Tim is a legend..Can't believe they sent him to Detroit. He was having a productive season. NBA business is nasty..Hope he finds new life. Good interview!!!..👍🏽
I'm a Detroiter! I'm hoping that Hardaway Jr. finds his rhythm for the Pistons and has a good year!
The opportunity is here in Detroit!
Yup I almost cried when he was talking about Run TMC. Broke them up for BILLY OWENS!!!!!
Yoooo can I get one story without an ad???
*Mully hitting 3's for 150 minutes is nuts but absolutely believable* 😂
One of the goats great episode
N Staxxxxxx n Matt is A1 steak sauce n it's a dope brotherhood 💯💯💯
Slept on this interview. Just watched. Being from Chicago. Proud of this man right here
With all due respect to you Tim Sr....Jr thought he was in with them folks and started riding Luka too hard and the did to him what they do to the majority of ball players. I hope he gets another opportunity to do what I've watched him do in person many times. Great interview
Chris Mullin still not on ALL THE SMOKE by 2024 is crazy!
Did you ever think that maybe he doesn't want to be on?
My favorite was the T-bugs I wanted those and could never afford them and used that as my username in math class to check my grades in middle school
J Kidd will respond 100%. 🤣 Its gonna be cryptic message.
RUN TMC was such a fun team with Tim Hardaway, Chris Mullin and Mitch Richmond.
Defo gon' be a slick one liner with a half smile/smirk 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hardaway with the Bo deal hat on
Good video.
His son couldn't hit a shot for over 3 months. No one needed to explain why he wasn't playing.
