I think a lot of the accidents happen from people not respecting the motorcycle. People get used to zipping around cars and speeding and before you know it BAM!
@@ThaRedPitbull Has nothing to do with respect man. You could respect it and be as careful as you want, but you might run into ONE idiot and it could be game over.
@@MistaBajwa I understand what you're saying but I've watched a lot of motorcycle crash videos and many times if the rider wasn't speeding or if they knew how to break properly they wouldn't have gotten in an accident. I've seen a good amount of videos of riders getting hurt by idiots too though. A few years ago a well known RUclipsr motorcycle rider was killed because she was speeding around a very dangerous curve and lost control of her bike sending her into a bunch of rocks below. If she was more cautious and didn't speed she'd be alive. I saw another video a guy speed down a road that clearly had a sign up saying 50 mph. A car pulled out in front of him and because he was going too fast he went straight into the side of the car and went flying into the grass on the other side of the road dead on impact.
May God continue to bless this brother. He took a major L, that most would've never recovered from and he's still here smiling. Best of luck fellow Jersey boy
Jay William's is a very strong person. I'm proud of the brother for overcoming tragedy and rising above what would of mentally killed most. His positive attitude, wisdom gained from his mistakes, rising above tragedy and his gained intelligents is truely a testament of what people should be. He makes a great life coach with alot of good advice for the youth, especially considering his life experiences. Did I forget to mention what a great ball player this man was? He was a joy to watch in his time, especially at Duke.
J. Will has always been well spoken, but wow, his vocabulary has expanded tremendously as he has evolved. Working with ESPN on camera helps too. Shout outs to J. Will, my favorite Duke PG of all time.
I totally agree!!! Jay takes over & makes up for her inadequacies. But that’s part of his generosity. Jay made it worth listening to, for whoever he’s reaching, even though she (the interviewer) was stuttering, made unintelligent comments and didn’t ever ask a substantive question. It’s painful to hear HER, but music to hear Jay. He’s spreading a great message.

This guy had such a bright future I remember thinking he could pull Chicago out if its rut post Jordan era but you know everything happens for a reason. This guy is living testimony with a story tell... mad respect
I’m a Carolina Guy over 30yrs with my guys but J Will always been one of my favorite guards of all time he was just unstoppable he used to big guard everyone in his era BIG FACTS💯💯💯💯💯🙏🏿
MAJOR respect from a UNC Basketball fan who greatly dislikes duke.... Jay is a great person and i'm very glad he's still here with us today! ESPN is better with him also
Bro diehard UNC fan here and I feel the same way. I think we all knew he was a baller, arguably the most talented Duke player of all time. As great as Grant Hill was I truly felt like Jay Will had Kobe potential. Hated playing against him, 2nd only to JJ Reddick but I respect the hell out of his bball skills.
I was in a motorcycle accident on oct 10th 2020 I was on my way home about to make a left turn on a green light right when I turned car took the light and got me and hit mei broke my right tabula and fibula bones and my right wrist my radius bone and end it up with two skin grafts on my right inner thigh my Harley got destroyed that day was the worst day of my life had to get surgery on my right leg and wrist and right inner thigh what JWill said from beginning to the end about his motorcycle accident left me speechless with tears on my eyes I understand that man am going thru what he went thru I feel him I felt like I lost it all being fast and strong at whatbi do best my job work I felt like the scars I end it up with on my inner thigh change me I felt like someone else I failed my family so much it put my world at hold it put my income at hold my job ot took a part of my happiness away it i felt like it took my life away depression kicked in even harder I was in the darkest place I have ever been I felt like my life was over like if my own friends or ppl meet had to be super nice to me cause of rhe accident I felt alone lost started drinking heavily wishing that I would had died the night of accident crying my self to bed thru the whole day from morning to night I knew the dangers of being on two wheels when u love something very much u roll the dice and keep moving on its been since last year on oct 10th since my accident I been going to physical therapy everyday since my accident I have my family that have been supportive since day one who I would keep pushing away from me have the most awesome and best orthopedic doctor I have my brothas that have been there thru thick and thin to mentally am twice as better then I was at first but am seeing rhe light at the end of the tunnel am slow coming back mentally to the old self of mine I was happy cheerful happy about life being thankful for the little things I had that I worked hard for am getting there mentally physically I got way better and faster tje mentally put i.

Jay congratulations on where you are today. Give it up to this man, until you've had castostrophic set backs and had to deal with every aspect of that it is very hard to understand. The continual depression, drugs, and loss of self worth is fucking crazy. Dude is well-spoken and seems happy, we should all hope for people's continued success.
Favorite college player ever.. Damn shame about his pro career.. To me, the biggest tragedy in NBA history next to Len Bias, Hank Gathers, Petrovich, Lewis deaths
none those compare to Len Bias imo one stupid slip up that no one would've even thought would happened ending the life of possibly the greatest player ever! Guy was up there if not better then Jordan but we will never know :-(
kappakumplete Hey definitely did, but I really love him so much because she’s so inept at interviewing it could have been a nothing-sandwich. But, this interview allowed him to help her AND get his message out. He’s a champion.
Jay is wonderful - interviewer is not polished and I won’t hold that against her because everyone is learning. Jay is SO polished and he is passionate about getting his message out to the masses. Such a great thing he takes over the dialogue & makes sure the most important aspects of his “lessons learned” are covered.
This was a good interview and Jay Williams seems like a straight up guy who likes to reflect on his life and do the right thing and thank God he recovered from that accident. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
Frederick Johnson You are probably some penile deficient white boy, shivering at the thought that some black dude is going to take your woman, po' little white, I mean pink, devil!!!
I've been in a motorcycle wreck before and I remember every minute detail about it too, it's highly impressive he can recall all of it instantly exactly what happened how and why
I can’t believe I miss this interview. Props and respect to jay Williams. He kept it mad real about himself and society. Props to the interviewer for the good questions.
I was lucky enough to meet Jay Williams while I was in college. It was not too long after the motorcycle incident and he talked to us about life and basketball. He also did some shooting drills and made 44/50 threes and then made a ugly face and said “my legs ain’t right!” I looked at him like nigga I only made 32/50 and I’m 100% fine. He’s a good dude!
Poor Jay Will. Never knew his life was so derailed like this. Feel bad for him. But… he seems to be so well put together. Seems to be healed and wise. Cool guy.
I remember seeing him and Carlos Boozer walking around Duke's campus. It was around '02 and I was a high school junior on a tour of HBCUs in the Carolinas, but we also visited Duke. He was one of the guys I wanted to see do big things in the NBA.
i lost my big brother to a motorbike accident. I know a lot of riders are hard headed by nature, some even dont care about the serious consequences of wrecking. I know it is a lifestyle and something people love dearly, but think of those around u that care about you before u decide that riding is worth more.
Jay Williams was the best Ball player in College in the two years he was at Duke that boy was Legendary! It was always sad to me that he never got to play to what he was capable of once he made it to the NBA. Still hurts me that his career ended so early. Check out some of his old Duke Blue Devils Highlights
I still remember that Steve Blake pick pocket on Jay in the Duke and Maryland game. Those were such great games back in the day. I was only 4 so I don't remember but I remember if you know what i mean

No disrespect to bike riders out there, but this is why I will never get on a bike. The consequences outweigh the feeling of riding a motorcycle.
Yea bro I just lost a friend due to a moped accident two wheel vehicles are very dangerous bro 💯
I think a lot of the accidents happen from people not respecting the motorcycle. People get used to zipping around cars and speeding and before you know it BAM!
My bro lost 2 good friends on a bike. Stay safe everyone and have fun

And he has too
Listening to JWill you can tell he has reflected on the accident many nights a million times. Bravo for him for getting his life back together
Much respect for Jay.
Sometimes, the hardest thing is to admit wrong.
He is a dummy. LOL
Much respect....wow
This man spitting so much facts I don't even know if I'm real anymore!
Jonah ware 😆 haha!
😂
It's so much better when the people interviewed want to engage in conversation, and can form a complete sentence.
Jay William's is a very strong person.

Mann Jay Will dropped some knowledge in this interview , props to him for keeping it all the way real much respect to him.
salute to anyone whose been in an accident but was strong enough to still get back up and smile 💪💯
+D Vine If that's what you got to say to yourself to keep from crying.... cool

But how does one become an experienced interviwer without interviewing? 😊
I thought she was excellent
I liked her

just because you don't understand something, doesn't make it stupid.
Intelligent interview, very insightful. Way to get back Jay Will
a true warrior of life
Love Jay's interviews. He expands on his answers and points. Thanks Vlad
This guy had such a bright future I remember thinking he could pull Chicago out if its rut post Jordan era but you know everything happens for a reason. This guy is living testimony with a story tell... mad respect
I'm a big Carolina fan but these interviews with Jay Will has given me a new found respect for him.
I’m a Carolina Guy over 30yrs with my guys but J Will always been one of my favorite guards of all time he was just unstoppable he used to big guard everyone in his era BIG FACTS💯💯💯💯💯🙏🏿
MAJOR respect from a UNC Basketball fan who greatly dislikes duke.... Jay is a great person and i'm very glad he's still here with us today! ESPN is better with him also
Bro diehard UNC fan here and I feel the same way. I think we all knew he was a baller, arguably the most talented Duke player of all time. As great as Grant Hill was I truly felt like Jay Will had Kobe potential. Hated playing against him, 2nd only to JJ Reddick but I respect the hell out of his bball skills.
Jay Williams is quite a story I think about it a lot when you lose everything but keep on living life pushing forward.
Excellent interview. insightful
love all these jay williams interviews lately. this guy was a true STUDENT athlete. super smart guy. and I'm a UNC fan!!
Thanks man.This helped me today. Thank you. I've decided to save it.
J Will got a huge testimony! Few survive such accidents and make life great! Never gave UP!
Jay williams is actually a really smart guy.
His parents were very smart about controlling his spending.
@J Mo they should have let him get his feet wet that way he would have got it out his system early.

Great interview. Teach the girl how to ask a question and stop saying like between every word. Damn!
She is by far the worst at giving a interview.
i don't know why people are hating on the woman that did the interview. i think she did great. this is a really meaningful interview. thumbs up
Man, I am wishing the best for him. I'm really glad he is coming out and speaking about this.
Jay keeps it real.Great player/analyst for ESPN.
Great Interview, very wise man.
Jay I truly felt for you that very day & prayed for you and you made it.
This was one of the best interviews on Vlad. very articulate dude
This was a great interview. Congratulations Jay.
I had no idea Jay went through this... Just things he's said over the past two years I've grown a liking to him. Now even more.
he was a beast, sad when i heard about the accident.
Jay congratulations on where you are today. Give it up to this man, until you've had castostrophic set backs and had to deal with every aspect of that it is very hard to understand. The continual depression, drugs, and loss of self worth is fucking crazy. Dude is well-spoken and seems happy, we should all hope for people's continued success.
I think his plan for how to pay college athletes is the best idea that I've ever heard.
James Matthews I agree.
110% agree
The person doing the interview should not be interviewing if she aint ready. Seemed to really be lackin.
Real talk. Always been a fan J will. #bullsfan4life
real honest interview !

One of my favorites.. been wanting to know this man's story
Knowing your limits is a good thing. Some people don't know their limits.
This guy was A Great player at duke I wonder if it wasn't for the bike accident what Kind of impact he would had In the NBA.
he was my favorite player I be wondering the same thing
Great interview. Jay Williams could straight up ball!
I’m a fan of Jason Williams, smart and well spoken.
If it wasn't for his accident we would be looking at a NBA Great!
No... Servicable yes.
SDS Overfiend nah, more like a star but not an all star elite player
@@MrCocoMocoLoco2 servicable. No Jumpshot.. Average PG speed. Passing was average. He would've been servicable at best.

Excellent interview
This guy is an inspiration
Motorcycles have gave me all in life for me it has been a long and awesome run
Everytime I see him smile, it looks like an unhappy one.
I was lucky enough to meet Jay Williams while I was in college. It was not too long after the motorcycle incident and he talked to us about life and basketball. He also did some shooting drills and made 44/50 threes and then made a ugly face and said “my legs ain’t right!” I looked at him like nigga I only made 32/50 and I’m 100% fine. He’s a good dude!
I remember he was about to be the next big all star for us in Chicago. Glad he all right now
nice. great point of view with college ball... love Jay Will
Best college basketball player I've ever seen in my life.
Jay was and still that dude
most honest interview I've seen on vlad
She's kind of a terrible interviewer. She's panicking mid-interview. lol
Poor Jay Will. Never knew his life was so derailed like this. Feel bad for him. But… he seems to be so well put together. Seems to be healed and wise. Cool guy.
AMAAZING INTERVIEW!!
I remember seeing him and Carlos Boozer walking around Duke's campus. It was around '02 and I was a high school junior on a tour of HBCUs in the Carolinas, but we also visited Duke. He was one of the guys I wanted to see do big things in the NBA.
I don't even remember if I knew dude was from Jersey like me, but we just knew he was going to be great.
i lost my big brother to a motorbike accident. I know a lot of riders are hard headed by nature, some even dont care about the serious consequences of wrecking. I know it is a lifestyle and something people love dearly, but think of those around u that care about you before u decide that riding is worth more.
I couldn't finish listening to the part about the accident. So sad...
Jay Williams was the first "Derrick Rose".... dude could get to the rack and score at will.... He was the truth on that court!!!🏀
Nigga stop it. Stephon Marbury was. He wore the crown of thorns
Naw bro Jay Williams was hella nice
Man you reached to far. Step back man. How disrespectful to Rose. 2010 we seen him as top 3 poont guards of all time. Big difference
Jason Moses - Who saw Rose as top 3 PG of all time?
A lot of reaching in this post. Jay Will struggled his rookie year( well his only year in the league). He was no NBA star.
Excellent video
He is so absurdly well spoken.
Jay Williams was the best Ball player in College in the two years he was at Duke that boy was Legendary! It was always sad to me that he never got to play to what he was capable of once he made it to the NBA. Still hurts me that his career ended so early.

He was there 3 years
They should make a biopic of this guy
Nah needs a 30for30
I still remember that Steve Blake pick pocket on Jay in the Duke and Maryland game. Those were such great games back in the day. I was only 4 so I don't remember but I remember if you know what i mean
