Gil's Arena BATTLES Over Paying 50k For Hakeem's Old Moves 

These sessions with Hakeem worked for Kobe because he never stopped practicing what he learned. My point is no matter what you learn you still have to continue to work on what you learned in order for it to effectively translate to your game

Giannis just came out and said hakeem didn't charge him . But if it was a million he would still pay.

Gilbert literally said Hakeem's moves won't work in the modern day and has completely changed his argument. Gil's backpedaling is hilarious, though.

Gil has a narrow mindset on this. It’s not about copying verbatim Hakeem’s moves. It’s about taking the lesson and allowing the player to shape the moves to the player. Nobody is expecting Giannis to be “Hakeem-esque” on the blocks and post, but if he can develop more moves that are better than what he has because of the teaching then it worked.

Gil likes to argue and I love it. McCants got this one and was clear minded with this debate. Caught a win

I cant believe Mccants cooked Gil. That Embiid and Giannis comparison was all he needed

This why Gil is his worst enemy. Dude likes to argue so much he started arguing with himself halfway through this clip and he didn’t even notice that shit. He was yelling at his self going back and forth. 🤦‍♂️.

Gibert changing his initial narrative. He originally said Hakeem old moves are not relevant for today's players and not about the fact that Giannis wanted to only use him for a week late in the summer

Gilbert is the Joe Budden of sports media lol

Look how calm mccants is, HE KNEW HE WAS RIGHT 😂😂😂😂

😂😂 he REALLY just sat there and said "Stop using Kobe, LeBron, and Melo as examples" Hold that L, Gil. Point to Shad

Giannis can show up this season with Kevin McHale's footwork and Gil will be like "he knew how to do that all along" 🤣

Gil is obsessed with being right so much he can't see he's completely wrong. McCants for the win!

The smirk on Gils face when mcCant said "it ain't Pat" had me rollin

Man Gil knows that with any training you have to continue to work on what you're training for. Trainers will give you trading that isn't only used when you're with the trainer. Gil didn't need a mental coach for the missed free throws. He was mentally defeated because LeBron said he world miss.. and he missed in a clutch situation it was a hit to his ultimate confidence.. he was humbled and didn't know how to handle that situation

Gilbert I can give you one who trained with Mr. Olajuwon and used the footwork effectively. Dwight Howard. There's a playoff series game against Portland when I believe he scored the first 13 points of the game and every move was Olajuwonesque. Here's the thing about Gilbert, he never had his own identity or creative move when he was playing. Remember he said once that he copied others. Not saying that's a bad thing but we don't remember him for nothing of his own. You got Olajuwon-Dream Shake. Kareem-Skyhook. Dirk-Stepback. Jordan-Fadeaway(and so many others). Tim Hardaway-Crossover. Gervin-Finger Roll. Magic-No Look Pass. Harden-version of Stepback 3. So many other players that may not have their own signature move but their creativity had them separated from the rest. Gilbert has nothing to offer the game because he was easy to replace. He doesn't come up in conversations about great players. Not a Hall of Famer. No Rings. Not really consider a fierce competitor. Tell me this; would a young player today pay 50,000--75,000 or 100,000 to train with Jordan? Would there even be a debate about it?

The main point is it’s only 50K ! Giannis makes $500K per game yall ! Let that soak in ! Lol … that’s $250K per half … $125K per quarter … so what he paid for a week working with one of the goats , he makes in 5 mins ! 😂 stop playing !

Y'all trippin if you hating on Hakeem

THIS EPISODE WAS 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I swear I love this show

But I didn’t play in the NBA 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Rashad made every point I made 🤣🤣

Didn't Miami Bron become better in the post due to Hakeem's training?

Look at Gil's face when it starts 😂😂

I agree with Gil on this watching how someone plays and what they dont have confidence in helps

Mccants is finally right about something!

Gil is a habitual goal post mover

Gill be cooking these ngs!!

Do your thang

Mfs spend 50k on other bs that doesn’t get them anything in return. 50k for an NBA player these days is nothing. You’re getting knowledge, wisdom and game from one of the ALL TIME GREATS in the history of basketball. That’s something worth way more to REAL HOOPERS. Gil sounds ridiculous. He just can’t take the L of looking like a complete IDIOT for his comments on Hakeem’s workout sessions.

Mccants finally right. Gil can’t admit he is wrong. Giannis said Hakeem not charging a dime 🤷🏾‍♂️

“do it like this son” 😂😂😂😂😂

The Greatest Sports Show On RU-vid ! Ps: Mccants Bring The Best Arguments Out Of Gil 😂😂😂😂

Gilbert out of pocket talking about another man’s pockets but on the topic mccants right on this

When McCants comes on with the crown you know it’s boutta be lit

that "playing with ourselves" is crazy

This is a great debate lmao

They were both right so they weren’t arguing points they were arguing perspective . Cause Shad was saying after you learn from them you gotta keep doing it and doing it on your own while Gil was making the point of timing

I’m shocked Rashad came with logic and facts today

😂😂 I love this show

& ima rock wit Gil on this one !

Javale’s post moves improved a lot in recent years compared with his Washington years.

Hakeem didn't charge 50k. It's crazy how Gil just made up a random number and everyone ran with it 😂

Amare came to NYC downside of his career.. He didn't have the same athleticism.. He went to work with Hakeem and he was roasting cats in the post... Thats the year D rose won MVP.. Amare was leading Mvp candidate before Melo trade was made and he got hurt late in season.. Agent Zero doing a good job talking, sounds good selling podcast..😊

It’s bad when I’m siding with McCants 😂

First time I actually agreed with Rashad. Gilbert is trippin lol

Everyone travels in today's basketball.. I mean, what is Gil saying .....Hardens entire arsenal is traveling son 😂😂😂😂😂

My man with the crown just coming up with names

The fact that Gil can critique a legend when he's not is hilarious 🤣 😂 😆

Rashad been reading the comments, he stopped w the crazy antics and kept it real/logical finally 😂 good shit mccants

Why the hell Gil has to be so disrespectful to some of the greatest ever? He dissed The Dream and Kobe this week. Dissing them doesn't make you better Gil. They're champs forever.

man gil you getting crush in this debate your kids' friends gonna see this

Gil, have some GD RESPECT!

Jokic and embiid are the two best big in the NBA and you know why that is? Their footwork and post moves they are modern day Hakeem, Gilbert

Mccants finally right on something wow it’s amazing

LOOOOOL “that ain’t no pat beverly!!” 😂😂😂😂

Hakeem's moves aren't 'old' - they are classic and foundational. A player can learn them and use them as a basis to develop as a player. Not all teams and coaches are going to be invested in an individual players' development.

@2:09 KILLED his ass 😂 “Do it like dis..”. 😆

I love this podcast thanks for the entertainment

Bout Time MccCant get it right proud of you for finally saying something correct I love it and about the Lebron heat debate as well 👏🏾

This was a great episode and clip ! Mccants was on point which now makes me re question his takes

Gil got cooked on this one... by DreamersPro & McCants. Let it go Agent Zero.

Gilbert shot 42% from the field.. he brag about scoring 37 on Kobe.. 9 for 29 from the field.... Gil is Capricorn

It’s a lot of “Ayo” moments in this clip 😂

All this mental training and still brought a gun to the arena

McCants be speaking factz dawg speak that real

He finally right about something

Dude be yappin, Gil right ‼️

Gilbert is definitely a hater Hakeem is worth 300 million he don’t even need to train anyone 50k is fair because he is a HOF a winner and was good at his game. Gilbert mad ain’t nobody gonna pay him that.

This is the only episode I’m expecting logic from him ever 😂

Why we playing with ourselves is crazy

McCants has me weak!😂😂 He's like I'm going to be calm as fuck and be correct! Love it

50k for Giannis to put his head down and get to the basket every game 😂

Gilbert hold the L on this one cause training camps like that are always just about the knowledge

“Fried chicken, Fried chicken and Mac & cheese” 🤣🤣🔥🔥

All I know is it's effective. Remember, when Lebron couldn't post up Barea and lost the finals partly or mostly because of it. The dude trained with Hakeem and came back with an excellent postup package. Since then, nobody said he has no post up moves. With regard to the amount, it's about how you value your time. If I'm at work or have a business, and I'm making 50,000 a day, if you want my day to be only for you, then pay me 50k. Hakeem is a businessman. He's worth 300 M, and majority of it is not from NBA. Only about 110 million of it is from NBA salary.

Gil is arguing just to argue because he was losing the argument

😮 I cannot believe that i not only agree with McCants, I agree damn near 💯 😂. Actually it is a good debate on both sides.

He keeps living off of this 60 on koby. Did koby guard you the whole game? How many did koby end up with I think 40 that game. So it's not like you was stopping him either Gil. Damn! L. I. G.

I respect Gilbert for telling us his inner demons at the free throw line against the cavs while Rashad McQuit gets defensive of not finishing his workouts with Pat Bev

Hating on Hakeem is ridiculous

Keem had to smash Gil joint ain’t no way 😂🤝

Gil is 100% correct. You can't do something a week before the season, (less than 10 hours total), on something you are a novice at. And expect it to be worth it. Especially when they aren't correcting your mistakes. This is sometimes the problem with many great players teaching others. They don't know how to teach because they just expect it to be done the way as easy as they do it 90% of the time and don't correct mistakes when they see it.

Giannis foot work looked amazing in the first preseason game. Need an update after seeing it and hearing he didn’t pay anything

Most deadliest man in under 3 seconds but never won anything!!!!!!!!!!! Scored 60, scored 50+... But only been out the first round once!

My boy mccants got one he shooting like 2% right now but hit something

Rashad when he knows (or at least thinks) he’s 💯 is so calm and collected.

You can learn at least 1 or 2 moves in a day of training easy. I remember when i first learned the reverse pivot into the triple threat

If people pay me 50k to travel I’ll work out too.😂😂💯

Damn, McCants looks & sounds like a man who knows that the truth is on his side. Gil is so emotional his voice is going up a few octaves. Sassy 😂🤣😂

Mccants was right on this one. Lowkey needed this talk! 💯

That was a f***ing bar 🤣 “MAN THATS JAMES HARDEN IN THE CLUB, WE SPENDING THAT BREAD EAAAZZZYYYY” 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥

Joel embid got better from his tapes

Gil is just jealous because it’s not him that’s making that money. Stop hating for once. Ask Shaq about Hakeem foot work how he couldn’t guard him. Now you mad because he’s getting that and you not

I saw some footwork in that Lakers v Bucks preseason. It wasn't pretty but he was doing it

Archived this one because McCants is SPOT ON with his assessment 💯💯💯💯💯!!

Gilbert Arenas is a professional hater. Kobe is from Arenas’ era, and he worked out with Hakeem Olajuwon, and Kobe said he got better. Arenas thinks because everyone has switched to the 3 point shot game, low post play has no place, even for actual big men that play in the low post.

Man I can’t believe I agree with McDelusional twice in the same week, what is happening to Gil bruh. Although I would say this, unless ur willing to work hard on the most Hakeem will teach you, don’t pay for it. It’s a waste of your money. Post game is no longer a big part of NBA, if lucky, player will receive the ball to get to work like twice per game, both time they expect you to being a Jurassic World Dinosaur amongst animals right away. What I trying to say that it’s might be better to use that money for something else like a fitness trainer, dietician, shooting trainer, or something that would suit you and what the team need more rather than post play.

13:00 😂😂

Man said I'm gone travel... For a week you hear me lol

Gil is crazy. LeBron's post game improved 1000% after worked out with Hakeem. He post footwork was non-existent his 1st couple seasons.
