Soccer actually is the best sport to start a kid with in life. They usually will develop the hand-eye-feet coordination that will help in other sports
Kobe Steve Nash Hakeem olajuwon Embiid all played soccer as kids
As a trainer, order is
1. Gymnastics (balance mobility)
2. Swimming (core work, body development)
Is where I've seen produce best athletes older

@@Dremac5swimming for sure. Track is way ahead of Gymnastics though. Almost every team sport requires you to run and track helps you do just that but properly and without wasted motion (which can mean everything in a sport like American football where 1 yard determines Wins and Losses sometimes).
My son is 13yrs old.
He played basketball at age 7 and 8…and at age 9 told me that he wanted to only play soccer, which is what he’s played since 4yrs old.
At age 12 he told me that he wanted to play basketball so I began training him.
I push him not to become an NBA Player, but to be the best basketball player that he can because as a team player, if he isn’t putting in the work to be the best that he can be, he’s letting down his teammates and that mindset is applicable to many facets of life in general.
He told me at
He was gon beam the ball at his biscuit 🤣
Jesus beaned that ball over that fence "I ain't gettin' a damn thing!" 🤣🤣🤣 "I can't believe he threw that shit over the fence"- Jake Shuttlesworth 😂
Biscuit😭😭😭😭😭
@@berlingray8058"u gon be a lil bih now?" "Big bih"😭😭😭😭😭My line there
He was gone jelly his sht
You can tell Kenyon's a strict parent
Coached one season of baseball for my son’s team and realized I’d rather be his father/ cheerleader during games.
This episode made me call my 9-year-old daughter to the living room and told her I'm going to start coaching in basketball. She actually smiled and said coo! I felt hope! lol, me having all daughters who don't play sports.
Let’s goooooooo
Yeah a lot of times it ain’t nothing more than they don’t realize it’s a possibility for them
Kmart getting better and better
Seriously, he could carry his own show in a little while
@@davidcage7501 fasho, I believe OG getting more comfortable and is fr coming into his own in this space.
No what I’m sayin😭
U gotta stop with all that tough guy shit.. we seen his career he wsnt really like that.
I wasn't a fan of his in the league or right after when he was picking fights with guys online like Jeremy Lin lol. I agree with the dude that says the tough guy talk needs to be cut out. Too many real fighters and killers got their own shows to know what a real one sounds like. Just be comfortable being a great nba player with a nice legacy.
Gil is 100% on Dad’s who coach their kids. I was on the bench getting yelled at for a dope missing a ground ball!! lol.
In my opinion no matter how hard you train your kid either he has it or he doesn’t especially successful athletes because you can’t teach the same hunger and drive and toughness that you had because your kid was born with the things that motivated you to get to that level
True but most will never know if they have it until pushed to that place.. end of the day pushing your child and they don’t make the nba but they get a d2 scholarship and get a free degree is still a win
@@zackdillan2219nah at the end of the day you should look at your self before being to hard on your kid like if you know you wasn’t athletic don’t expect your kid to be
Love this dialogue my daughter 8 just started basketball last year , and this clip was very reassuring about coaching and helping . 💯 love to the arena✊🏾
I just started coaching my son and this conversation hit home and definitely eye opening. I needed this perspective, much love fellas💯
Insightful information! Good content!
Martin so violent 🤣
Not really...jus hard nose
Dope conversation from black fathers. Understanding the balance of discipline , communication and mental health. Its tough coaching and training your son bc you dont want to kill their spirit .
Why does it gotta be about them being black, they regular fathers let’s keep it like that they don’t need a special label cause they happen to be black fathers
@@jumpy2xstreaming Go be a triggered racist somewhere else BOZO the clown
Their fathers first🙏🏼
@@jumpy2xstreaming bc we are BLACK living in America where there's literally propaganda machines used to distort the reality of black fatherhood. Where fortunes in resources and unlimited time have been invested in destroying black family units. Tell me where on any national form are black men shown having these conversations? Try that simpleton distraction elsewhere
Love this!!!!!!!
My dad being my coach as a kid totally ruined our relationship till i was damn near an adult. I vowed to NEVER coach my kids & to just be a supportive father, but willing to help IF ASKED!! I have friends who are doing the same thing my dad did to me. i try to talk to them but they are so focused on living thru their kids, they dont listen..
Yea coaching your kids is only for people with certain personality traits if your an asshole coach vs a chill look at the brighter side coach it can’t work
@@zackdillan2219 my pops was fresh out of the USMC and treated little kids like it was boot camp.. I hated playing football because of him
I don't know the behind the scenes relationship between Tatum and his Dad. But he definitely pushed him to be great. Playing older kids...playing up during summer AAU. Tatum played football as well.
I’m so glad I came across this video.. I have 2 sons.. 6yr old son is very athletic, natural gift., but he doesn’t understand alot of the important details of the sports he’s been playing.. the 5yr old is not very athletic, but knows aloooot of the details in the sports.. so, I have been struggling trying to find that common ground with my oldest of being harder on him because I see he has that gift & I want to give him as much knowledge as possible.. my 5yr old got it, he just have to grow up and let his body develop lol., he’s still my baby boy 😂😂.. but, yea I’ll learning to be patient with my oldest son because I don’t want to ruin our relationship.
I feel there can be a balance to realize how to be gentle and kind
Coaching hard is possible in a kind way, just gotta be able to build people upas if they're your own child
Man sometimes gil is so right on. The part about coaching your kid and being harder on them just so the other players and more importantly the other parents (who are most of the time ok but some are a complete pain in the ass over any and everything) are the ones you have to pacify.
Hey Gil, your daughter has your shot. The girl is fire. She is the Queen of the Court.
What Kenyon said about the importance of having restraints, was underrated azz fucc! (Pertaining to your children)
My son and I exercise together, and im always telling him id rather he do less the right way, than doing more the wrong way.
And I obviously wasn't about to throw a weight at the back of his head, but he almost caught a rib shot.
Luckily he had on earbuds, and really didn't hear me talking to him as he turned his back.
Im standing there like, did he just do what I think he did? 😂😂😂
I had my 80's/90's music playing in the background, and automatically assumed he could hear me talking to him.
But overall it was a misunderstanding, and i know i don't have that kinda kid who's disrespectful.
He actually inspires me to stay active, and he listens, coincidentally he'll be playing soccer this year. 😂
Gilbert drops so many gems.
I had disagree with K mart.
He would be a good coach guys like him usually are and he would command the respect of the locker room as well.
Interviewer:how you make the NBA
Me:Gil was in the stands telling me what to do
I’m sitting here thinking about the Six Degrees of Separation that Draya has with K-Mart, Gil and K-Mart Jr! 😂smh..
Anybody know what episode this is so I can watch?
This is crazy cuz I had just the opposite. Because I had no one to really take time and coach me, by time I made it to my junior year in HS my attitude was so fckd up I couldn’t be coached. I ended up playing on a circuit team in my city, was averaging near 40ppg, but still no one really wanted to give me a chance because I wasn’t coachable. A junior college gave me a shot, and I dogged every niggah on that team and never got to play one game because coach said I was a cancer. At 18,19 years old, I didn’t understand. Now I’m 39 and can look back and say damn, I was my biggest problem. Lack of male leadership made me a diva on the court and I thought because I could score the ball it trumped everything else. Men, even if you don’t coach your kids, just make sure you’re really being a parent and your child will know how to take instructions from an adult. It can be detrimental if they don’t.
Goddamn this makes me think about Gigi
She was set up for greatness
My dad coached me. He treated me like the other kids and got on my ass when I needed it. But when practice was over everything was regular. I was able to separate the things as a child though. Parents need to just have a talk with their child about it.
Deion sanders proved you can be a damn good coach and good parent
Now back in the day the parents weren’t too bad but today it’s CRAZY.

KJ be speaking with KM yes Sir no Sir
Caught a stray at the end with that 5'8 comment 😂
Saying agent zero kids going 2 the league is insane! Imma stay tuned & witness
Kids need that Hunger to be Great!
Follow Luka, his son's an All Star
Good story
That non-nepotism is appreciated, but it actually means that you love your son more, because you are preparing your sons for life beyond you being the coach.
I’ve seen colleagues, I am a high school teacher, who coached their sons, and unfairly promoted them, and the sons weren’t the best players on the team!
It made me coach my son hard as hell, and sit him on the end of the bench, while NEVER showing any OUNCE of nepotism. For example, son I want you to dribble the ball when we walk the dog, alternating hands every other block. Son said “no”. Well, when he wanted to play point guard and dribble the ball, I told him no, because I didn’t want to put him into position to fail. 15 years later, he now understands why I taught him to read prior to kindergarten, and tried to get him to be a better dribbler
Man I hate it when Kenyon Martin beans me with the basketball, but if it goes in the basket off my head, it's worth 10 points
“He’s ambidextrion” - Kenyon Martin
U know I'm saying...
if i have a kid i want my son in soccer & gymnastics
I dont think you can train your kids for greatness in any sport... it has to be already inthe child... you start Training him for soccer to be the next Messi and the child decides all of a sudden after years he wants to play Golf 😂 let your kids be kids and see what the future holds for them ❤
Yup look at Magic Johnson and his Son EJ. Ej rather play dress up.
And Josiah himself. He didn't pan out, and his Dad had an 11 year NBA career.
A
@@thehandleishothotthe did pan he played four years at ucla lol
Facts but think about it every basketball movie that’s worth watching has the coach being overly critical of the star son.
Growing up you and cases like that but I play for a couple ball clubs where the coaches son wasn’t very good but still was criticized
In football is different players know your dad is a the coach they expect you to be what your dad is preaching or they expect you to be trash treat them all the same he’ll know he gotta work like the rest of them
Who are the superstars
So how long before Gilbert says that for the slam dunk a contest the players have to be NBA players, not in the G league anybody want to take any bets?
Does nba need ro bring back hand checking
Gils son Alijah is nice, I wanna see him in college
He’s garbage and like you low functioning
Not everyone can become the next Elvis Presley & Michael Jackson & frank Sinatra those are the best of the best singers in the world! Rare singers 🎤
If they got it... They got it!!! Most us will never get there and these guys know what it looks like. If they don't got it they will be the 1st to see but you got to be real 🤷🏾♂
Check out '25 5'11 G Morgan Mack. Hart Girls Basketball! 3 ⭐⭐⭐ star
In vlt mkd they train their kids to walk straight without falling..talk about paying the price for being a crook...cosmic justice never misses😂
8:30
Moral of the story be a dad first. Don't train your kids, if it's going to take away from your parenting
Good to see a comment section of former NBA players tell former NBA players how good they were not and how their kids are not that good😂😂😂the all knowing comment section never fails
Wow! Guess my comment got axed by the RUclips censors! Again!
I'm a .U of A fan for life! Way before GA got there! From Jersey and grew up near Gary Brokaw, Kelly Tripucka, Shaq, Kyrie, Jay Williams, Milt and Billy and DaJuan and Brian Taylor and Tim Thomas. I was a superstar.
I DO not like former athletes PUSHING their kids!!! If their kids go in that direction, fine. But training them and not focusing on school is a HUGE! mistake!!! Can't talk. Can't read.(well) Can't write. Can't do math. But he/she can ball. So what?
I worked in IT 16 years in DC. I used to ball at Georgetown on rec night with my boy who was 82nd Airborne. Used to wipe the floor with those young dudes. But my mom was a teacher for 35 years in Newark, N J. So I speak, read and write extremely well. Been published in USA Today editorial page 22 times. And I'm Black!
Oh, Brevin Knight, 3-time All America from Stanford is from my area also. Focus on education not sports. Slaves were killed trying to learn how to read!!! Remember?!!
Kmart is wrong Shawn Marion shot with both hands the matrix
1 out of 20000 players all time. He is not wrong
Kenyon the man that invented iphones and Airplanes. PLEASE KENYON TELL US HOW TO LIVE. Knower of all
Gil’s son just needs to get quicker on both ends as well as knowing when to get rid of the ball (it comes with age and experience); that young man is going to be a PROBLEM for college players by his senior year.
6:56 wtf did he say
yooooooooooooooo
In baseball usually the kid that's good @ 7-13 yrs old at 15-18 will stop playing ball
Little known fact Kenyon Martin invented the laptop, waffle iron, & Airplanes. Nah he didnt just acts like he did.
Gil son gonna be a problem in the league with that soccer experience
Gil needs to pronounce his R’s. Hems not from the east coast lol

Kenyon too damn long winded….sheeesssh
0:11 Come on Gil, it’s football not “soccer”
Soccer. Real Football trumps Futbol
It's funny how all major sports is changing from a working class to an upper class dominated spectacle... With that, true genius is lost and all you have are robots for the most parts who's parents have access to the best trainers. Natural raw talent and the beauty of sports is dying.
With a few exceptions, these new factories of sports players lack grit, passion, competitive spirit and all the things we love about sports.
So much better without McCants
If you wanna play cool. Bring em along, and show em the ropes.
Regular parents are not going to have a chance
They soft they wake up in silk sheets when you got kids out here grinding way harder and want it more that why most of there nba players kids are average
No wonder K Mart Jr is trash
He his far from trash. The Rockets were playing him strong. You better look at highlights
@deelewis8061 I watched him play in LA & Houston. He's much closer to trash than good. When I say trash trash I'm comparing him to his peers, not myself or the avg hooper off the street.
This host just assumes these kids are making the league. Get serious dude.
Have you seen Gil son play?😂 if he don’t make it that would be a catastrophe.
my daughter won't listen to me at all . mom was way more invovled when she was younger and now she's spoiled and lazy . drives me crazy.
First
Tatum not no top 5 player rn gtfoh
HOLD ONNN ! Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Luka Doncic arent superstars but Kenyon Martin and Gilbert Arenas are... lmafaooo gtfohhhhh
Fools r delusional... it b getting outta hand.
Best advise is to never have your kid specialize in one sport
Yeah. Tatum played football too
You know your kids will never be you this is filthy bcs their kids have chance and some kid who's father not NBA player must work much more and never get chance no matter he is 100 times better then their kids! That never work! Am sick listen this!
Kenyon martin jr is not nba level.
Depends on Who U Ask!
You were not a superstar, Kenyon!!
You are 100 percent wrong 😂
@@qscustomkickshaynes4015he wasn’t a superstar in the nba
He was pretty nice but Kidd make him look way better than he was. And KMart himself thinks he was it haha
He made 1 all star game. He acts like he was a Allstar every dam year.
He was better than u think! Smh youngsta
Does he take his kid to gun range?
corny AF
Bruh why Gilbert mean to the girls. They’ll get their shots in just make sure they have food and water and pay attention to their needs
Tough it up.
