@kingvonfrom63rd000 i agree
Deebo so real for this series
Dame and DeMar both come from rough parts in Cali, both got that ice cold clutch gene in their veins but they just good dudes, humble and hardworking striving to be and do better that’s what it’s all about. Dame and DeMar have done so much for the game! Us fans appreciate y’all’s greatness!
Exactly!
Is that why he went scoreless in the first quarter of a must win game today ?? Ice cold as in SUCKS
playing through a broken heart is a different kind of pain
mf said the MJ heartbreak game 😂😂😂😂
Compton and Oakland representing
California love
My daughter is yours and the bulls biggest fan, she’s 12 and is obsessed with basketball.Her birthday is this Friday and is having a full blown bulls theme birthday party. We’ve been watching this series together and her seeing that her favorite basketball player struggles with some of the same things she does gives her hope that everything will be ok. You are inspiring more people than you know. Thank you so much for this series ❤
Happy birthday 🎂🎈💯📌💪🏽 🎉 to your daughter brother &
#ChicagoLuv bulls Nation as well salute fr
Dame articulates his experiences well. Real solid dude a leader
You can tell he took his growth as a person serious because of how conscious/self aware he is. Definitely a quality great leader needs
Just saw Dame came to watch the Bulls vs Blazers
DeMar I see it DeMore I like it. Awesome podcast
Two of the realest to ever do it 💯💯
Demar you are a legend
Dame and demar are literally like alternate versions of each other they just grew up in two different parts of cali. But the way they carry themselves the way they speak how they play where they come from they are very similar both very unique in their own respect. But I can see how they would become good friends and that’s the beauty of the league.
Dame and Demar are my 2 fav players in the league so this hour watch is an abolute blessing for me
Two people that I respect so much right here. 🏁👑🏁
@Casteeyo... Long Live King Nip fa sho sho
Demar you’re awesome for talking about this. It’s bigger than just being a baller.
Even though I have had a very different life it’s been very difficult and painful at times. Also full of blessings.
I have had great therapists … one in particular and other spiritual teachers to point me in directions to help me find my own inner peace and so very grateful for that.
It’s always a work in progress even at 73 :)
We
Grew up in the East Bay in the 50s / 60s.
My Husband and I now live in Lake County.
We became Kings fans around 2016… perfect timing.
So excited for this season. So excited you are a Kings player now. I Love the Kings Fox-Sabonis-Monk-Murray-Ellis-Lyles. Go Kings - Light it Up!
Just started reading your book and been listening to many interviews. What a wide variety of energies.
And your own podcast is wonderful.
Just wanted to express my deep appreciation and blessings to you always. ❤and 🙏
You the 🐐 Demar
Two great men.
Hello Demar. Your ball game bring me so much joy.
My partner who is deaf and autistic. I recently brought him into watching the bulls. Omg the emotions he have when you get the ball. 😂😂😂❤❤❤ he is Big kid.
He don’t understand the game. So he hates it when you foul someone and slow down the game for free throws.
Omg I fear going to a game and him seeing you. Start reacting to you like a villain wrestler. But he is hyper into all the recent games. Rather your feel like a hero/villain. your bringing life into our home. Thank you.
This is my todays.
For My past, I Had a father who drink and beat me a lot. So I understand the weight of the world while struggling mentally.
I remember reading a story about Dame inviting a friend of his at Weber to live with him when he was struggling and staying close w him. Also read about some off the court things he dealt with during Covid where he had to be a strong leader for his family/friends. much respect to Demar and Dame for keeping it real and putting this convo out to the public
What's that he had to deal with
Not gonna lie.. I was in a dark place & had some dark thoughts and intentions before I watched this.
I appreciate two of my favorite players since Bean retired, sitting down and having this conversation. It honestly meant a lot to me.
Hope you're okay my guy !
This is needed
no it’s not millionaires whining, try working a regular job, and living a civilians life that’s stressful. Living the dream and not being grateful is no bueno, count your blessings.
@@ballin4real7 half a million people in the US are homeless. They'd probably call "a civilians life" living the dream. You say it's stressful.
There are problems at every level of life. Understanding each other, and understanding that mental health isn't just based on someone's financial situation, is important.
More important than even that, kids look up to these players so normalizing caring about mental health is an altogether positive thing.
Shout out Deebo and Dame for this.
@ballin4real7 you sound stupid. So imagine if you had people talk about the performance of your job on national tv your 9-5 no matter if you dealing with personal issues or not and you had to be damn near perfect or your next raise was in jeopardy. Just because these folks are living the “dream” doesn’t mean they not people the luxury for us is that we can live our lives however we please while there’s is under a microscope at all times.
This is fantastic conversation from very honorable men. This type of discussion is so much more interesting to me than other content out there.
Putting the kids to bed so I can really zone in on this convo.
Thank you!
“They haven’t healed themselves as people.” Dame I ❤ you.
The realest nba players.
It's amazing to have these two upright men continue to be true beacons for the next generation. No dim light here
Demar I am addicted to these man they are just what we need to hear man it’s a shame Kobe ain’t here because I know for sure he’d have been the 1st guest ❤️🙏🏾
Keep going DeMar! Depression is not a taboo anymore.
The N0.1 NBA Lyricist@Damian Lillard🙌🏼💫
Growing up in a New England, being a patriots and Celtics fan, I’ve had many sports idols to look up to. However, my favorite athlete of all time happens to be a long time blazer and now a Milwaukee buck. Damian lillard is the most inspirational athlete of my lifetime, and I really appreciate him doing something like this. Thank you Dame!
Demar we love u in Chicago you are doing a great job with all the young guys and keep preaching your mental health it's healthy to talk about
Thank you for this DeMar and Dame. It hits the heart hard
All heroes don't wear capes, these two brothas are shedding light on something that isn't talked about enough in the urban community. Mental health is so important and many people don't even know that they are suffering or how to get help. The thing to remember about mental health is that you can't see when your hurting, in comparison to something physical like a bruise or a bump so it's harder to understand when your hurt or sick. However platforms like this that breakdown how things can effect us mentally and shed light on way's to deal with it is such a big help to others dealing with issues. I have subscribed and really enjoyed watching these two superstars go over such an important topic. Legendary!
Very similar dispositions these brothers, always nice to see how life brings people together who compliment each other so well, appreciate these men as farthers
Love this series so much Demar. Me and my gf who’s studying in a psychology program watch it together whenever a new episode drops.
Hey Demar. Love you bro! Been riding for about 10+ years now and imma keep riding for you. I ditched Toronto when they traded you despite being from there, rooted for the spurs, and then the bulls. I’ll keep riding no matter where you go. Keep your head up king ❤️
You’ll always be the greatest raptors to ever exist, and one of the greatest scorers of all time
I appreciate you brothers speaking from the heart. Respect.
Demar lots of love from Greece, we watch you guys against the Bucks every time you play, keep it up legend 🔥♥️
I thank God for the vulnerability & honesty of both of you goats. It really encourages for the better.
This was a very impactful convo between these two, respect! Two of my favorite players since they have been in the league. I'm a Portland fan since the Kersey and Buck Williams days and I enjoyed all the moments Dame gave to RIP City and never waivered in cheering for the best for him as he gave it his all and he's a true professional. Much success for you in Milwaukee bro! DeMar keep doing what your doing it is a big thing!
Two of the classiest guys in the league and super fun to watch you guys play too. As a child of immigrant parents, a lot of your experiences resonated. Great episode!
❤ I love the transparency of this conversation! Life doesn’t discriminate or know social/economic status. It happens to us all! Keep speaking on it, pouring into one another and taking care of yourselves in all aspects (mentally, emotionally, physically)! You owe it to yourselves! As cliche as it is, “you can’t pour from an empty cup” do things to fill your cup and everybody benefits from it!
👏🏼
Enjoyed everything about Dame being open with DeMar. It’s great to watch real friends support each other’s journey. Love to see it. 🙏🏽❤️❤️
Hardship, disappointment and challenges are necessary to grow from being a boy to a man. How will you be able to stay calm during high stress/high pressure moments, lead a family and do what you NEED to do to DESPITE how you feel if you don't learn early from going through pain?
We live in the concrete jungle. You ain't owed understanding, mercy or grace. Bills will still be due, goals will still have to be accomplished. Which is all the more reason to be grateful for your loved ones, to pick who you create a family with VERY carefully and pick who you allow into your inner circle VERY carefully.
Dame said not to run from the grind. The hardest grind reaps the biggest rewards IF you persevere and use the pain of the past to fuel your hunger for more.
Legends do game and of life ❤
two cali legends 👏
DeMar DeRozan!
The Game winners of the century.
Demar inspiring all ages
This is amazing if you really hear the message

2 of my favorite players in the league today!! 💪🏽💪🏽
This was relatable in a way, which isn't surprising but refreshing.
Much needed in the world. Sending good vibes & more good conversations from Belgium! 💪🏻
Great platform even better content! Hope you keep this going fr cause it will definitely allow others to relate and also be able to speak on these things that cloud they mental. Salute to having Dame on there too! Keep this going 🔥🔥💪🏾
I relate so much to you DeMar. My mother went into surgery and that was the first time we showed affection towards one another in so long. It felt good like you said.
This is so dope that you are doing this DeMar ❤
Bro you really been one of my favorite players since you came in this shit man 😭 you deserve your flowers man , you’ve been so consistent your whole career bro , I wanna see you win so bad on the Kings , and I’m a Celtics fan ! Turn up bro ! 😤🔥
This is good for athletes everywhere. Well for people from all walks of life.
Love this podcast
Man, what he said about having everyone’s presence around him I know just what he means! That hit home!!!
Brotherhood
DeMar and Dame both said it all. Respect.
men not able to be vulnerable, and deff not if you got a little melanin, and FOR sure not if you in the public eye! I appreciate y’all breaking the narrative!
The series and podcast we needed
Life wears down your bounce sometimes, but no matter how much you bounce back age begins to deflate your bounce. I appreciate you, because no matter what we need kindness to understand that understanding is wealth. ❤
This is the best thing I’ve seen in a very long time.
Thank God my favorite player Dame did this and shared his experiences with mental health on DeMars show and great episode. Please create and start your own podcast Dame please as a fan of your game, enjoy watching you play basketball and sharing thoughts on mental health. Keep it up DeMar and Dame! Changing and helping many with this condition or going through something. God bless you guys as we need more of this in the world🙏
Thank you Dame, for opening up abd sharing with us some of the things that had an impact on your life.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 to anyone going through anything. Life sometimes gets tough and you have to find a way to push through. Find someone to talk to, don't be afraid. Whatever it is let it out. Blessings to these two brothers 🙏🏾 💪🏾
From a random person in Chicago thank you Demar & the many real ones you bring on just to spit knowledge hopefully they can help many more
Love this damar and dame, love for both yall
Debo stay in Chicago next year..you already a bull for life..we don't let people go here❤..
Great discussion ❤❤❤❤great series
Wishin you nothing but the best with the Sacramento Kings DeMar with all the years you spent in the league and still at the elite upper echelon level you playing at. You deserved the MAX but glad you still got paid. Glad you back home in Cali, They Not Like Us.
Two of the realest , I qlicked instantly when I seen this, good interview fellas
Demar really impacted not just the basketball world but a part of society. I’ll never forget when he opened up but his mental health and how it rolled over to more athletes and people in general coming to the realization that they feel the same. It honestly feels like since that point, men have started prioritizing their mental health more than ever before. Your strength on opening up on this was for a reason. We appreciate Demar 💯
Great show, love dame dolla
Its crazy to find out some real shit about some guys you;ve been fans of for so many years
Excellence isn't personified by a mans ability to be immune, it's done by proving you're not and still can be who you're born to be.
Dame my fav player of all time
My 2 favorites players of all time are friends
Appreciate yall being so open and real 💯 nothing but respect
Love your show I hope a lot of young people see this and change there mind sets
Thanks, Demar and Damian, for doing this!
Such a great and important series. Thanks for creating this safe space.
This is a whole different perspective from the any other podcasts.. DeMar got something special here 👀
Intro to the interview is 🔥
2 of my faves talented humble professional big hearted guys. Love that Demar made this series its so important to let people know they aren't alone.
True insight behind the entertainment ❤
This podcast is refreshing!! Love it and it’s sooo organic! Demar don’t get random guest so you can see it’s actually organic.. just need a waiter to serve food now and then lol
I enjoyed this very much. Dame, I hope and pray things work itself out for u and ur children. I commend u and DeMar for being the great fathers that u r.
cant wait for the coby episode 👀
This podcast was everything. The vulnerability about mental health and our traumas are much needed. Best conversations out there. Thank you Demar and Dame 🤝💜
Dr. Of psychology and long term bucks fan here. (Like sickly obsessed with the bucks). I’ve been cyber bullying dame all season and I’m sorry.
I absolutely love to see this platform. Ive worked with a lot of individuals impacted by suicide or suicidal ideology-many of whom are athletes. Many hid their mental illness due to fear of how others would perceive them.
When you open up the conversation, you give other people a way out-a catalyst for change/for addressing their health.
So thanks for doing this. I’ll share some of these with some of my clients
You're a Doctor of Psychology that works with athletes and you've been cyber bullying Dame? Wtf
The ones that go thru it are the ones with the heart that can help others and I'm glad both of you can share stories and words to encourage and help others. Thank you both
This was dope! It just shows that we all are humans. It doesn't matter how much money you have. We all have ups and downs, and it felt good hearing this and seeing this from two role models.
yall are human, thank you for the hard work you put in. I appreciate you DeMar and Dame, much love!
Dinners really are the place to let it all out with the people we trust. In my books this is the most real and powerful YT series currently. I love you DeMar! As a fan from TO from the bottom of my heart.
Great Show, Super Important Subject, Your Audience Thanks you Very Much 💚🌎
Love this. Looking forward to the full clip. I like what Dame said, sometimes you can't face your family members, so find someone who will listen. My issue is ppl shy away from ppl with depression, etc.
Dame is extremely knowledgeable especially when you listen to his post game interviews he gives great insight
Hope you find an outlet homie.. if anything I’ll hear you out .. and maybe you could do the same for me
I love you Dame ❤
