Quote of the year
JJ ‘ the window is so small’
Matt Barnes ‘It’ll close while you are crawling through it’
That line was fantastic by Matt Barnes
That line gave me chills.
But once they added Durant, all the intangible things you look for in teams didn't matter as much because they literally had the last two MVPs, both in their prime...With The DPOY, two 6th man of the year candidates, and another all-star in Klay.. Most stacked team in NBA history.
Thats crazy how something that like will probably never happen again. Draymonds impact goes undervalued. Ppl forget he was the best player on the court in game 7 of 2016
and Houston almost beat them
@@GymbalPooh for the warriors yes, for the game and series, definitely LeBron.
@@angelusgnz5784 no. It was Kyrie that game.
@@TheSwagIsBack just because he hit a 3 pointer doesn’t mean he’s the mvp of that game lmao. Kyrie had 26 points lol. Lebron had a 27-point triple double and had an equally clutch play in the last minute of the game. Stop reaching your whole body out for reasons to hate on LeBron.
Blake didnt have clutch, go-to moves to finish out games. Because he couldn't generate easy baskets, he was dead tired at the ends of crucial games. To cap it off, Doc's "system" didn't get ANYONE easy shots like Ty Lue gets this Clippers team.
Fr, Ty Lue’s offense is almost a polar opposite to Lob City. All the excellent passing open 3’s generated on transition are a true testament to easy shots. W Take.
Matt barnes and Stephen Jackson and JJ redick have the 2 best basketball podcasts out. So awesome to watch. Keep up the great work guys
Yep. Always good listens every episode. Draymonds podcast have been good lately too. You should check his out if you haven’t already.
Draymond and Gil are just as good if you haven’t watched.
Dont forget Gilbert, hes been balling
@@battlersparadise6643 I like drsymonds and I like Gil’s too. I think Gils is the funniest one but I feel like sometimes his can be more about himself than the actual guest when they have them on. Matt, Stax and JJ are great listeners in my opinion.
And, and , and
Rondo masterclassed the Orlando Magic in the 2010 ECF. It’s pretty forgotten because of the Finals that year.
Facts!!!
Kevin Garnett was the difference maker. He was hurt the previous year that's why the Magic made that finals run in 2009
Fr
that thumbnail typo tho lol
FIXED! My fault
This show is cool. Just watching old NBA players talk about the game, unfiltered. JJ has so many connections, it just makes sense. What a great idea.
I agree. I love hearing real talk about how things really were. I literally laughed and cried watching AI on All the Smoke. It made me remember why he was my favorite player.
Agree; compare it to ‘turds’ like Skip Bayless and Rob Parker & you wonder why you ever watched that sh!t
Such a heartbreak to hear about that '10 Team. We went nuts in '09 in Downtown Orlando on Orange Ave when we went to the Finals. Unfortunately a missed layup swang the momentum in the other direction, but then we added my Daytona Beach HS LEGEND Vince Carter. As a Magic fan, those were the days! JJ, I was rooting for you so hard to carve out some playing time and to see you go on to have the career you did makes me happy as a fan. Then Matt Barnes, dude, your energy and the way you scrapped was so rad to see in a Magic uniform. Thanks for the memories boys!
Ty seriously people forget just how dominant Howard was in 2010. Dude was averaging 3 blocks a game and putting like 20 & 12. They sleep on him as much as d rose was when he was in his prime
Its criminal Dwight wasn't top 75.
Dwight would’ve been top 10 if he didn’t stick his snake in every hole he found. He had like 10 children within 5 years. He dropped off mentally before he dropped off physically. Completely self-inflicted.
Dwight led Magic eliminated Bron that year & made the Finals. Bro was a literally beast.
@@fupalover Nah
I love JJ's podcasts. Love hearing these storys from all these nba players. Questions are great as well.
Most of us hated the warriors dynasty but ,,, we all wish our teams ran their organization like them very professional 8/10
Most of who? What do you mean? Warriors franchise has an enormous popularity in America right now. U better speak on your name, don't speak on behalf of everybody. U hated the warriors, that's fine. But the rest of the people might have a different opinion, don't you think?
@@mromero1113 most of us including me ofc
I love the Warriors. Just like Barnes described. It is so refreshing to watch a team with no egos who just want to win. And to date, the core has stayed together. Imagine that. Players sacrificing money to win and create a legacy / dynasty that evolved organically (I am ignoring the KD stint; I wasn't a super fan of that acquisition).
@@Papillon_2010 I love em too. Refreshing is the right Word, fella. Specially on this ego-driven era, their unselfish style of play is something quite special. Besides, they're plain FUN to watch! Love Warriors!
@@Papillon_2010 Couldn't hate these guys, that's just stupid. Bronsexuals have to stop being mad, I understand they've suffered a lot watching tje Warriors humilliate and sweep their boy and destroying his title-chasing dreams. But even bronsexuals like good basketball. So relax and enjoy!
Golden State is blessed to have a duo of best players like Steph and Klay.
Jj: “You’re window.. it can close so quickly”
Matt: “Close while you’re crawling through it”
That was cold
The most poignant thing said was Matt at the end, it can close while you’re crawling through it.
*Their
The 2010 magic legit broke my heart. Boston had no business beating them. Matt was right, i think it was a coaching issue that happened there
Truthfully, one can also say the 2009 Orlando team had no business beating Cleveland, too .... it happens.
Hey JJ. been a clips fan since like 2010 (i was 10). i just wanted to shout out that mid range buzzer beater game winner you had. you caught the fadeaway off the inbound with like a second left on the right side. i don't remember who you were playing but it was just such a good feeling to be at that game. so exciting and nostalgic.
Dope to see Dwight get respect. He was one of the best defensive bigs in NBA history before his back injury.
Dwight was a monster he was dominating the east before LeBron he took out LeBron in the ecf STRAIGHT DOMINATED !!
Should've been top 75
If JJ doesn't have a million subscribers by the end of this yr I might lose my mind... He was one of the first players to actually catch my attention and get me into basketball.. him and D Wade where the two guys who made me fall in love with basketball.. Duke JJ was a legend and one of the best shooters in NBA history
That warriors team is the greatest team ever assembled.
Players like Steph, Klay, and Dray love to share the ball, which Durant couldn't live. The passing mentality from Pops to Steve is the utmost meaning of basketball.
Your RUclips cover photo is wrong. Change to *Their
Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.
Matt Barnes does as well being interviewed as he does all the smoke. 😉
Excellent work everyone @ JJ Redick !
It was also nice hearing Matt giving Dwight Howard some credit, after all this time.

Your amazing thank you for you're help.
@@ddogg280 That right they're, is what I'm talking about
yeah theirs something wrong with this thread
Thank you!
It's crazy I remember watching that series and noticing Orlando change things up but I thought it was minor.
Bill Simmons talked about it too and now Matt Barnes with the %100 confirmation.
Matt Barnes is such a smart guy. He is so good at articulating his thoughts and feelings while speaking into a microphone.
this is the best podcast out there. Thanks.
I’m from Canada and when jj reddick was at duke in his record breaking season I begged my mom to drive to America to go to Steve and Barry to by a duke jacket jj reddick gave me one of my first special moments in basketball he made me a fan
It's was good to hear about that Orlando team I that was my team in middle school
This was a great video, but what’s up with the cartons of half and half cream on the table 😂😂😂😂😂
Matt Barnes holding this mic like a torch
🤣🤣
The end of this is the most important thing. Different sport but this past Super Bowl when a lot of sports analysts were saying all of the pressure was on the Rams as the Bengals weren't suppose to be there and were young all I thought was sports has been littered with promising young teams who got to the final dance early and never got there again so the Bengals had as much pressure as the Rams, there is never a guarantee in the future.
Y’all calm down about the spelling the point is that they were slashers vs the shooters and the warriors didn’t have egos while the clips did
I don’t think that’s what it comes down to at all, you must’ve forgot that until the warriors won in 2015 a “jump shooting team” HAD NEVER won a championship even though they made it there often (09 magic). It really was their lack of egos, that’s why igoudala won mvp. Curry didn’t care if he was taking those shots
Were the 2011 mavs not a jump shooting team?
@@thatsmynametoo777 as a lifetime Miami fan, yes they are, one of the first teams I saw that "live or died" on the 3pt line
Best sports podcast out right now
Huge magic fan!!!! Loved this conversation so much. Wish yall would have won 🏆 but you ran into the Mamba #ripkobe
That magic team was my favorite team
Wow. Please do something about the sound quality form Barnes' mic.
Clippers had zero chance of ever beating the Warriors once Kerr came in and changed the system to revolve around Steph
Draymond would NOT allow the high flying Blake Griffin to beat the Dubs… he personally took on the challenge to attack both physically and psychologically dominate Blake’s game… once Draymond established himself into Blake’s mind, It was all Warriors. The game within the game… Draymond does this to whomever he guards, J.Brown, Joker… makes him the Best overall Defender in my opinion.
facts
That Bobcats team was pretty tough too
Lol what
This podcast was great! Please get Jameer Nelson on this
That team’s weakness was injuries and blowing leads
Close while you’re crawling through it
"Your window, it closes so quickly" So is life
On another note, I needa see y’all’s facial expressions when Mikal picked Ryan Anderson 😭
Coming soon!
Hey jj. Put stan on the podcast. I wanna know whata his mindset was
As a Celtics fan who doesn't know basketball, Barnes and Reddick describing a new offensive install hurting their flow is so interesting. The assumption was just that the KG Celtics teams were defensive stalwarts that forced the Magic to grind but they made a very good coach overthink and surrender the initiative.
As a Magic fan this hurt
Best podcast.
I fw JJ
JJ, Blake, CP3 and now Matt Barnes have all expressed this deep regret for the Clippers not winning it all during the Lob City years. But the reality is, they just weren’t good enough. I remember those years vividly. I never once looked at the Clippers in any given year and thought “Man, they can legitimately win it all this year.” There were always better teams in the west.
Bra I don’t why y’all think Matt Barnes was cold
Bring on Danny green and ask about the 17 spurs/kawhi situation
I've never heard it like this before...Barnes said your window can close "while you're crawling through it"
Shaq always said Stan was a master of panic and that sounds exactly like what they're saying caused them to fall apart, he panicked that the Celtics might make adjustments and beat them and ruined their momentum, chemistry and rhythm by changing things before even knowing if what had gotten them to where they were would work.
The Orlando Magic smashed LeBron and the Cavs that year
You mean in the 2000s, right
that year was when kobe and LeBron was supposed to headline the finals but we all know how that would of ended kobe 4th ring REGARDLESS ...LeBron didn't even lick the finals till 2011 and even then he shitted the bed
@@chinoxSD lebron made it in 07. Look at who he had on the squad too lol
2:34 😂🤣😀
Biggest difference is GS was already Champs before they added KD they had 2 of 3 best players theres a lot of difference
That’s was my favorite Clippers team!
Redick is a real one got more soul than most brothers
Maan...them 2K10-16 years were the best😎🍻🍺
People talk about that clippers team like they were dominate I don't remember it like that 😂
people forget how good dwight was he was like the last Center to lead his team to the finals
Matt Barnes: A guy who has played with multiple great players and championship calibre teams.
Everyone in the comments: So called basketball geniuses.
I wonder who's opinion I give a damn about 🤔
Why not consider all of them? I don't see too many 'geniuses' in the comments. A lot of bball fans giving mad love is what I see. Glass half full is better, dude.
Glad to see that Matt and JJ both agree Van Gundy cost that Orlando team the series in ‘10.
KD and the warriors are the only team that lived up to the expectations unlike the nets currently dismantled
Betty with the good hair!
Van Gundy was great… “We were smoking hot going into the playoffs. We adjusted our offense before we played our first play off game against the Celtics”. 😳
So funny with Stan Van Gundy. What Matt described was a total scrub move by SVG and this dude stayed having a coaching job. I hated that about the NBA. A bunch of coaches that never won anything just rotated coaching jobs and it was so hard for young talented coaches to get a chance to do something.
Good video. Let me guess I bet your gonna have chandler parsons on your show within the next month. But JJ I'm a big fan. I'm a JJ too. #JJ4life
That Orlando team was too reliant on 4 standing around on the outside and dwight howard in the middle.
Stagnant offense despite the talent.
And Dwight Howard's footwork problems that plague him throughout his career first became evident.
Josh Mcroberts played on Orlando, Duke and in L.A. why isn't he on here?
Man that series vs the Lakers...Jameer Nelson being forced into the starting lineup after coming back from injury was the biggest mistake. Skip to My Lou was balling at the starting pg position and they screwed that chemistry up when Nelson came back.
Dawg do not fuckn REMIND ME... one of the worst fuckn adjustments in FINALS history
@@vharris5503 I'm not even a Magic fan, but man I think about this all the time. Idk why. I just do.
@@JNEZ25 me neither but at that particular time I was rooting for Skip.
Draymond MOST DEF has a kanye west huge ego, and yeah they lacked interior defense among rebounding well.
No they didn’t, cuz they had javale, zaza , bogut, bell. They had rebounding machines.
Yeah in 2016 finals where bogut got injured they the interior defense.
Fix the mic
Why does jj look so tiny next to matt in that chair lmao
This > ESPN
why does it look like matt barnes mustache is drawn on with pencil lol
I wanna know who had these “egos” 😭 must of been Chris Blake or Dj since nobody wants to say it
wow, didn't know they blamed Stan VG for not winning title(s)
Matt should have def smoke these guys up all the way up
That’s the most alpha man spread I’ve ever seen.
This reflects poorly on duke
Hah. Actually this was my fault which makes sense bc I dropped out of college.
How?
@@Anne-dm8vk he wrote the title lol
@@irocklalot I don’t understand
@@jasongallagher41 me too!!
Their*
Jj husband beside him is looking good !!
Boston didn't have Kevin, the year before Vince choked at the line, and were still up 3-2.. it was the Celtics who should have played LA 3 years running
I've always thought that the van guides had bad DNA
we'll never see anything like that 2017 warriors team ever again. and its for the better. most stacked team ever and not good for the sport.
Are those Girl Scout cookies on the table?
hopefully we wont be saying this about the heat in the future
2009 Magic was the best squad Reddick was on
It's always the Ego. If Shaq and Kobe weren't beefing, they could've won more championships than the Jordan Bulls team.
Absolutely. And if Shaq didn't show up out of shape every season they might have been a 70 win team a few times. I was always team Kobe. Shaq worked my nerves.
Who's proofreading your stuff? C'mon man.
Usually my wife proofreads the thumbnails but she's out lol. My bad. Appreciate you pointing it out.
The Warriors mentality is:
“Idgasf who gets this ball in the rim, but it’s going in the rim. We will play team defense and hold even our smallest players accountable.”
7:15 - the window does close so quick. thunder made the finals against heat. never got back.
Once they added Durant he made everybody job so easy. The warriors could sure use him right now
They dont need him. I mean KD will improve any team but gsw need him. They need kAT or jokic
Don't need him to win
Well this comment didn’t age too well
My problem with Chris Paul or playing pickup with someone who thinks they are the leader. Who do they think are or What have they done to think they should be a leader. I go to play on the Warriors team, I might not like it but I have to take Steph, Draymond or Klay's stuff because they are proven players on championship teams.
The clippers couldn’t beat the warriors or thunder because there beat perimeter scorer was 6’1 simple as that and paint scoring by Blake is not the same as perimeter scoring from KD and curry and Klay
The biggest difference was the warriors having kd curry and klay lol
I gotta say Barnes was trippin when he said lakers vs orlando was sposed to happen twice?? It was supposed to be cavs vs lakers that year in the first place
He a tweaker
He’s talking about the 2010 playoffs where Orlando was supposed to make it back to the finals against LA
