I'm not gonna utilize the timestamps today, just wanted to see if/when vince came up 😆
PHIL KNIGHT oregon ducks You heard it jack All that hating you was doing when they bashed colorado
Oregon A good school with good people
Zo the best our vacations were legendary
A very wise brother well articulated, no swearing, class.
He was a REAL MEAN rim protector, I love these guys no afraid to be posterised for doing their job, respect.
All real basketball fans love Alonzo Mourning 💫 - from a Knicks fan💚
Zo, at every point of his career, always reminded of a stern, strict uncle. Zo and LJ were a tough duo on NBA Jam. If you know, u know.
Yeah no doubt
That was my go to duo. LJ with those dunks too. Zo swatting EVERYTHING
Boom shakalaka
Zo was the reason I knew my NBA dreams were done. I went to Kenny Smith’s basketball camp at 12 and Zo was the guest speaker. This man showed up in a muscle shirt and shorts and was RIPPED LIKE A GREEK GOD! And this was during his kidney issues! I said “this man looks like this with failing kidneys???” My 5’7 150lbs self knew it was a wrap from there 😂
Zo is, first and foremost, a gentleman. One of the greats.
ZO is weirdly underrated in his career
So many great centers and PFs back then. I miss that era
I don’t think so. He gets the respect he deserves given his resume
One of the greatest leaders ever and one of the greatest defensive players ever. And he could score
@PointofVision559 he really doesn't. His name should come up way more
What’s his rating? lol. I think it’s appropriate.
Loved Zo's game in Charlotte and the more I learned about the man validated the initial admiration. Collected his cards, kept the Slam magazines, read Resilience, rocked the jersey, hung the SI cover with Russell on my wall. Last item on the list is to shake his hand and tell him what an inspiration he has been. Thank you for having him on the show.
Listening to these stories from the nba legends never gets old. Keep up the good work guys
Alonzo is my favorite player EVER...glad they did this interview
Major props 4 Zo.... Amazing franchise center, then overcame the kidney issues still was a very good solid role player after the kidney stuff got the championship & Hall of Fame... Outstanding player that I got a lot of respect for 👍🏼👌🏼
My favourite center of all time, the ultimate warrior big respect to Zo 💪🏽 🔥
Bruh this is not your fav center quit with the 🧢
😂 tell me you know this dude personally@@SuperMt24
@@SuperMt24he is, played with the heart of a lion.
@@manimal9871 think it’s impossible to play basketball with a lions heart replacing a human heart…
Your favorite center got boom on crazy few times
My favourite player growing up in the 90s. Loved his commitment to defence, hard work and tenacity.
I always New Alonso was a great player but wasn't on my favorite list.. Having him on the Show made me realize how Great of a Man he is!... Blessing to the Brother... One of your Best shows Ever!
Glad they did this interview. Zo does not get enough credit for his impact on the game. Always has been someone I had alot of respect for.
I know I haven't seen all the sports videos online. But I want to thank All The Smoke for bringing on Alonzo Mourning. He, thus far is the only player who acknowledged the Pistons in the same breath as the Lakers, the Celtics, and the Bulls. Thanks for the video and I can't wait to see more. Detroit! What up doe!
This dude has my ultimate respect 💪ZO
How? He's a HOF. Popular conversation isn't the only conversation.
I played against Zo when were young bucks in HS (class of 88). Zo played on an allStar AAU squad under Boo Williams and they were loaded with talent but the teams back then had skills - had fundamentals down cold!
“ He was a six ten Vince Carter “ That is definitely the best analogy i have ever heard of Shawn Kemp 🔥🏀
I'm a Miami native. Used to go to Zo's Summer Grove and loved Zo and Timbugs era. Thank you Zo for your impact and contribution to our community!!
Grown up (mature) discussion! Love it! Grown-folk-talk.
They finally got Alonzo on?! Man I been thinking about him being in this show for a long time. They had wade, Udonis, Shaq, Gary Payton, Jason White Chocolate Williams on. Bout time they got zo. Another member of the 2006 Miami heat championship squad. Plus zo had a long career, played for a few teams. Got a family, had a health scare. So Alonzo Mourning is definitely somebody who should've been on All The Smoke. Glad they got him. Been waiting on this
My earliest memory of Alonzo mourning I was in 1st grade in about 2000-2001 I got in trouble and my grandma made me read the mourning news paper and write essays and did a essay about an article on how Alonzo wasn’t gonna play the upcoming season…. I caught on late but Zo a legend nun the less
I remember Zo’s basketball summer camps in Miami. He was a big community guy before Shaq. As a kid we loved that guy.
good guest...always loved Zo's defense, esp his blocks. he contested everything, even if he got dunked on
He was intensity & effort personified. That was what i liked most about Zo's game.
Zo vs Stephen Jackson’s take on painkillers shows exactly how different they are. Zo takes responsibility, Jackson looks to blame
Zo is a grown man. Jackson is a boy who never grew up
admired zo resilience and his tenacity defensively
As a heat fan since Zo days glad my guy getting his due 🎉🎉🎉
He deserves it.
My childhood hero and still is
1:11:43 "I'm a grown man" That's called taking accountability
My favorite center growing up. I had the 33 Hornets jersey as a kid.
I had an Alonzo Hornets jersey too. I had him and an Orlando Penny jersey.
Alonzo Mourning straight Chief great interview...
Yall got ZO!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
R.I.P Mr Thompson 🫡😎
Great pod. The warrior himself Zo! I loved watching him play. One of the best defensive players and best shot blockers since Bill Russell
Big Zo was the man! Fav player next to Wade
Man, I love Zo. He was so intense when he played. Loved his passion
Great Interview Fellas!!! Much Respect Zo!!!
Preach about aau!
Love that bro got a ring
Zo has that Miami life tan going..Dude is a legend.👍🏽
Much love to you big homie ZO . A true warrior.
Zo is probably my favorite player of all time. To a little kid growing up in south florida before we had flash we had Zo and he felt just as heroic
Great interview guys..loved watching Zo played and he's got great stories respect
Watching them read the teleprompter while doing the commercial breaks is crazy as hell. 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂I thought it was just me
The reason why i love basketball... UPN 33 if you know you know.. SFL
💯
We got your comedy!
Great interview. We need to hear more from Zo. Fantastic stuff. Thanks for sharing
As a SU/Knicks fan I always had respect for Zo.
I remember Zo had the Zo summer groove in Miami in the 90s and that was my first time seeing him and Method Man and Monica was the performers. We had a good time and they were telling us to stay in school. 🤜🏾🤛🏾
Shaq was a bit salty after reading the DPOTY awards on NBA On TNT.🏆😏
ZO CHAR. HORNETS 90'S Straight Killa with Larry Johnson Mugsy. Bogues johnny newman😮 KEndle gill Glen rice... Used to love going to watch him play it with the Charlotte Hornets. We always be a legend hall of famer in my book
Johnny Newman doesn’t get enough love
Yea that era was great. The Hornets were solid. VA stand up. Mourning was a great great player. I know Johnny Newman personally. Good dude. He didn't like when I asked about guarding MJ but he was humble. Him and Dumars were arguably the best to guard MJ.
Glen rice was subsequently traded to heat for mourning around that time in '96-'97 season.
Great. Another person who we don't see everywhere giving the same stories 💪
Not going to say who, but an individual told the same stories on at least three interviews. I had to look in my YT history to make sure I didn't watch that specific one already.
I’m for it
@@DubH2Hwho?
@DubH2H lol why won't you tell us? 😊
You're a hater. It's ok though. Just get more wise.
Zo is a class act, just like the rest of the G'town Centers under John Thompson. Much respect to Alonzo Mourning
My favorite interview so far. Zo is my GOAT and Basketball Hero.
Zo's take on AAU is not wrong. It's hard to develop a kid when he's written about in sports magazines, talked about on social media platforms, and his parents want to know how much a coach is willing to pay to have their kid play for a certain program. They want more than just sneakers, bags, and sweatsuits. AAU is all money. From the programs to the events they play in. Parents want their kids to play for certain teams because the program plays in certain events. Some programs have little to no practice, just play games. Not all programs are like that. There are some programs that have 2 to 3 practices a week and may play every other weekend. That's 4 to 6 practices before they play a possible 2 or 4 games in a weekend. That the way AAU should be.
Big Zo absolute legend
OK SALUTE 🫡 TO Y'ALL FOR HAVING ZO UP THERE
Great episode
You can see the hate on Steve Jackson's face when he's talking about Ray Allen making that shot
He is a big hater
Great interview. I just wonder if Zo still not talking to VC after that dunk.
big zo 💪🏿
right on
Zo is the man 🔥🔥🔥
Love Zo. He was always a warrior every time he plays on the court. I was a BULLS fan all those years ago and I’ve always respected the way Mourning led his team. Rodman against Mourning was fun to watch.
Great interview yall!
Forgotten center. The Heat as a legit franchise started with Riley, Mourning and Hardaway.
A fan of Zo since his rookie and followed him to Miami and became a Heat fan since.
My favorite childhood center growing up. Always admired how he was undersized during his era but was still amongst the best. Mean on the court but well spoken off of it. Definitely a legend and played during an era when it was tough to be an elite big but he still did it. Zo, my dog. 💪🏾
Great interview
Much respect for Zo played against him in college a true specimen. Shout out to you Stack opened up a business in BeaumontI I serve the Port Arthur area as well. Anthony Allen from Port Arthur was on that Georgetown Hoya squad as well. Keep up the good Stack and Matt!
One of the best shows ever
I remember Zo and Larry at Hornets in early 90s
I remember going to the Compaq center in Houston to watch Miami Heats v Houston Rockets, sat 4 rolls to the court, Alonzo was being defended by Otis Thorpe and vice versa...goodness, it was like 2 summo wrestlers battling each other to gain positions on the block. I could hear the impact of their muscles clashing. It was so intense. It was so physical. I played basketball in college at 6'8" tall. There was no way I could have played like that.
That was when I develop a lot of respect for power forwards and centers. It really gave it the meaning of POWER!
Kudos👏🏿 !
Respect to all 3 of these men. Excellent show!
Great interview.
Good stuff great information about wellness
Great show gents!
Awesome that they got Zo!
Amazing guest 👏🏽 great podcast 🔥
My favorite Zo moment, his rookie year with Charlotte, in the playoffs. He hit the game winning shot against Boston
Met him he is huge! Cool as hell offerred me a job!
Lee Mayberry? He played for Arkansas. 😂
Yooooo the Bob Marley request! Nice 👍🏿! The king of Reggae 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Straight Outta VA #Zo #VA #757
Favorite college player ever
U N D E R R A T E D.. LIVING LEGEND 👑👑
Zo DEFINITELY top 10 Center of all time. And DEFINITELY the greatest Heat center.
Alonzo Mourning we were just talking about you today. My siblings & I. Went on RUclips & there you were. The internet be listening 😂 my oldest brother introduced me to basketball 🏀 & I haven’t stopped watching since. Reading Chris Webber book 📖 now & he’s got me reminiscing about the best to have ever played 🏀 was a big fan of Georgetown secretly. 😂 Born & raised in Detroit so I had to rock with That amazing blue U of Michigan. 💙💛💙💛
Shawn Kemp needs to be on here. Reignman and Da Glove together would make a hilarious interview
I love Steph and Dame but can’t nobody tell me they are more clutch than Ray Allen especially in Big games He was a killer
Appreciate it fellas "I'm still going Left alozno voice 2 jordan allstar game....." watching this on lunch Break @work
Growing up watching ZO @ Georgetown was cool always a big fan 🏀
#757 Indian River High School legend…
#757 All Day 💪🏾
Zo was a beast !
We need John Starks...camon Now!
He was a recent guest on the Roommates podcast w/ Jalen Brunson & Josh Hart.
It would be dope to hear his story on ATS though
Im so glad yall signed that DK deal!
Notice the hate in Stak eyes while Zo talks about Ray Allen! 🤦🏾♂️ Get that hate outcha Stak!
stak is an nba champ too why would he hate on someone bigging up another champ?
@@ogkloudy he does because he only achieved good role player status while Ray was considerd a superstar/star.
Lots of times Ray's name was in the convo, he would brag about how he is better and he busted Ray's ass.
Exactly!
Bro Dwade was in God mode that series. That fool almost made me break my TV. Dallas was my squad! Dirk is in my top 3 favorite players of all time.
He was s 6'10 center
having to battle against much bigger centers but Zo was just as strong, if not stronger and held his own.
Zo speaks the truth. You need to have handles a midi and be in the best shape of your life. Real talk.
