@Joe Tezzo I mean I get the point in saying “genius” but it wasn’t that deep all I did was reply saying what I said in the hopes people didn’t start getting nasty towards ur joke 😂😂 but alright buddy don’t reply I’ll never read it have fun commenting on dead people 👍🏾😎
Gil has one of the most unorthodox intelligent brains. Definitely a thinker of the game. His work ethic was awesome. But that 111 million deal was a blessing
I love hearing ballers talk about Kobe and his Chessmaster mindset. A lot of people didn’t know that he was a chess player. For the record, I taught Kobe how to play chess. It was in 1998, we were in a recording studio at Sony Records headquarters in Santa Monica. He and I were there recording the CHEIZAW rap album. Before he went solo. True story. Man I miss my little brother.😢
@@IronmanSidekickwithDaBlammer I know TheInternet can be a very misleading place normally, BUTTTTT... Mr Bannister is actually 100% WHOLE HEARTEDLY telling the truth. Anthony Bannister actually started started the Rap group, and recruited Kobe to be in it. Kobe was actually more of a lyrical rapper. Side note: Him and Shaq actually have a whole collab song together. LMAO I am legitimately BLOWN AWAY at this.
Kobe was so different and focused on basketball. People hated on him a lot during his career. He didn't get love until the end and especially after he died.
@@nelsonrivera764 like I said he got a lot more love near the end of his career. Majority of people hated kobe after him and Shaq split and the Colorado issue. Of course people loved him throughout I was one but he got a lot of hate
@@yeethers you right, the same with Michael Jackson. He got more praise after he died but while he was living people dogged him out about those damn allegations.
When your teammate is so much worse than the rest of the players on the court who cares it's not like he's gonna be a positive for the team no matter what lol.
Dont let Gil fool you with his perpetual immaturity, the guy is extremely smart and self aware. Just the way he got his bag and how much he pays attention. He's that friend who is smart yet gets everyone into trouble because of his immaturity.
Man. Had he been where he is at now mentally. Career would have stretched a few more years. You’re absolutely right. Like that uncle who can give you all the facts of life, but just can’t get right. I think he’s matured, grown after his playing days.
@Omari Jenkins uhh he was great for his Era lol....most of the high scoring guards today don't play defense either (Dame Kyrie Trey Young etc) Gilbert was no different then them except his Era was little more tougher and physical and it wasn't as many high scoring PGs as it is now
*How does Vlad not know what a one sided basketball player is? Every time he talks about sports it reminds of the time when I was 3 years old and I was learning the game of basketball.*
Looking forward to Saric Kuminga Moody and GP2 (ofc) minutes GP2 brings me peace Saric will be very useful ofc Moody very solid, good shooter and size But kuminga if he can make that jump he can be the X factor for us
That’s not what he meant by your a one sided player. He meant you cant play defense period. Kobe played offense and defense. Love the spin from arenas tho 😂
U gatta play defense to even ride the bench on an nba team so that’s definitely false these guys are super humans to use but these are their peers everyone is the best in their community even steph curry or trae young would lock u up easily stop down playing talent it’s not cool it’s hating
Vlad please keep interviewing athletes, it is so enjoyable to listen to these raw stories that we'll never get from ESPN. Please try to interview NFL gladiator Lawrence Taylor, that would be so badass. And ask him how sissy the NFL has gotten thanks to this "brotherhood" crap.
AYE VLAD...NEXT TIME YOU INTERVIEW GILBERT ARENAS ASK HIM WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM JOINING THE LAKERS DURING THE 2011 LOCKOUT SEASON I HEARD HE HAD A GOOD WORKOUT...HIM AND RASHEED WALLACE BUT NOTHING EVER CAME FROM IT AND THEY REALLY COULD HAVE USED THOSE 2.
Kobe Bean was a different breed💯 just the fact he could communicate with teammates in Spanish & was able to lead USA back to Gold while talkin shii in different languages INSANE🤯
