Bull shit
😂 you sick but I respect it
From Tacoma 35 minutes away from seattle. Shout out Kemp, Detletf, Perkins,Nate and Gary. Bring back my super sonics I haven't watched NBA since they left. Give me my green and yellow back. Until then f*** the NBA.✌🏾
👍🏾
I'm so glad they got Shawn Kemp on All the Smoke.
Me too
Great find
@@AllTheSmokeProductionswe love you guys! Thank you
Me too...been waitin' on this...
Glad he mentioned and told everyone that Dennis should have been Finals MVP. Cause I have said it for years that Dennis was robbed of that award
I never wanted to be like Mike as a kid.. i wanted to be like Kemp ❤🔥
I wanted to be like Zeke!!
Real Talk...Sad Part Is I Only Grew To '6"4😂😂😂🤦🏿♂️
@@shakajonez3862 6"4 you got it made.. lol I never hit 6"0 stopped at 5"10 playing like Kemp and Barkley
I’m like him now 😂
I had the jersey the shoes and the cut
"The Reign Man" Shawn Kemp was no joke!
Faxtsss
everyone loves Shawn Kemp too.
@@SuperMt24 🧢🧢🧢🧢🧢
@@KP-ec7mr who you talking to bud? And what you 🧢’n at?
TRUTH!!!
Shawn Kemp arguably reinvented the entire PF position 🫡🫡🫡 He been our HOF player ✨🖤
💯💯
Arguably, he had a lot of squandered years in his career. I don't believe an avg of 14pts 8rebs cuts it for the HOF. In the modern era Barkley and Malone are better examples of reinventing the PF position.
Agreed 💯
Derrick Coleman
He should be in the Hall Of Fame
Man kemp was so cold. Dude was a f*ckin beast in the 90s. His kamikaze Reebok shoe was so dope too. Keep up the great work ALL THE SMOKE! 💨 🏀
Yeah I had them jawn when I was young.
My favorite shoe to this day. Black white and green. I’m more of a low top guy but those shoes were light.
Facts! I got the Kamikaze 1’s and 2’s.
All the smoke always comes with smoke big ups
@@matthewadams8772 big SMOKE ups 🤷🏽♂️🤝🏽
Yeah Shawn Kemp not mentioned enough ✌🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 ballers kno🏀🏀
Facts
He really ain't 🤦🏿♂️🤯
Fuck yeah ...he a goat in his own right
@@rodrellsouthall1214 goat of fat and lazy lol
Old NBA stories is the best content in this new wave of media
I thought he was in Prison.
Finally a classic "let's interview an NBA legend" episode, that's when All the Smoke is at its best. I learned so much from old man Kemp. Very wise he went through a roller coaster ride and learned from it.
Nicely said. Lots of wisdom gained from being chased by so many demons. Shawn Kemp is the real deal
What alot of this generation doesn't understand is most people weren't Bulls or Jordan fans. He was just so good you respected it.💯💯💯
I'm from Indiana, die hard shawn kemp fan. Had the shoes and jerseys and all that.
Jordan was still the man. He was a demi god out there. Still wanted the sonics to win, but it's still jordan.
FACTS MY GUY WAS REGGIE MILLER
@@wyldeman7that's how I felt with REGGIE MILLER
Overrated
Man, he seems like such a kind and genuine person. I would always pick the Seattle sonics because of him and Gary Payton on NBA Jam!
Shawn kemp is a Seattle sonics legend. Hopefully when they bring the Sonics back they bring him in part of the organization since they did him dirty.
NBA LEGEND POINT BLANK PERIOD!!! ✊🏽🫡
Makes me mad tht OKC holds the records and sonics history
1000%... need to retire his and Paytons numbers as soon as they get back to Seattle!!!
Man he just shot someone at the mall ion think it's gone happen..not as owner
@samsneadd sonics own they own records till they comeback next year
This conversation was needed. Thank you All The Smoke. #KempInTheHallOfFame
Many will never understand the "Magnitude" of Kemp in the 90's era. Before Zion Williamson, Blake Griffin, or Vince Carter... There was only the Reign Man and nothing like his Dunks or God Of War "Kratos" yell afterwards. Post Dunk swag was unmatched, even till this day. This interview cleared up so many questions about his mental check-out after the 96 season. He was supposed to be the next Jordan after 96 Finals Run. He already had a mid range jumper and now added PlayOff experience to go with unmatched GOD GIVEN TALENT. After the 96 season (and NBA lockout), that Kemp never emerged again. It made little sense how he just let himself go overnight and went from a Zulu warrior, 6'10 prototypical Dunking Demi God to an overweight, average athlete layup machine, overnight. This interview put a lot of questions to bed. Respect to the Reign Man. Put this man in the HOF asap!!! #SuperNecessary
It didn't happen immediately. When he got traded to Cleveland he still made all Star a couple of times
Vince Carter? What exactly is it that you’re saying as far as what Kemp did first? Dominique Wilkins preceded him and was preceded by Dr. J and David Thompson. I was with you after you mentioned Zion and Blake but then you included a guard, which kind of distorted your assertion.
As much I enjoyed his play, his elite level of play was short lived. Being extremely athletic wasn't enough to overcome his lack of consistency in work ethic, which is why his numbers are not HOF worthy.
@nocturne311 😏 what "they said"??? Son, you just confirmed you're too young to understand and are part of that the new "chatty" generation who simply repeat what other grown folks say, because you weren't there (or even alive) 🤷🏿♂️. Sit this one out, rookie. My above comment isn't for mellinial try hards raised on TH-cam highlites desperately wanting to be a part of the conversation. #LearnFromThis 😌
@anthonysteel7515 96 Kemp was INCREDIBLY skilled. The finals showcased it. He mentally checked out after 96 and washed his whole career after alcohol, drugs, and never ending baby mama court drama. KEMP was in fact very skilled. Ball handling, mid range jumper, defense, etc. Not sure what you're talking about
My childhood hero. Im 40 now and still have some Shawn Kemp NBA cards with me.
Same..over 250 of em
I met Kemp as a kid in the airport at Seattle..I was sitting at a gate reading a SLAM magazine, Kemp was on the cover actually, and I looked up, and saw this tall black dude with his wife, and kid checking into their tickets, and it was him! I got so excited, told a family friend of mine who it was, and I wanted to meet him so bad. So the friend of our family walked me up to him, and I took out the SLAM magazine that I was reading, and he was on the cover of, and he autographed my magazine! Super cool/nice dude! Thanks for the autograph Shawn!
Wow that's so fuckn cool! Was he nice in person?
@tylerraisl3939 he didn't say anything to us, he just reached down to get my magazine from me to autograph. But yeah he was nice because he didn't say no kid I'm not signing anything today....he signed it!
When you think of 90s NBA, Shawn Kemp is a name that must be mentioned. It's great to see him receiving the recognition he deserves. Hope he'll be inducted into the Hall of Fame soon.
Facts
big factz
I had them kamikazes when they first dropped back in the early 90s
I saw Shawn at my friends private event in South Bend, In last year! He stayed for a while and took a few pics with people. I live in his home town of Elkhart, IN. Glad to see him on the show and Elkhart is still proud of him! Enjoy the day people!
My brothers Lasalle HS team was the only team to beat Scott Skile's at Plymouth HS. I still have have the VHS video of the game 1982!
They have a steel mill in Elkhart I use to load at and one of his classmates would tell me a lot of stories about him in HS.
Greetings from Elkhart ✌️
He showed up in the Finals against the ‘96 Bulls. He definitely wasn’t the reason the Sonics fell short.
No one was gonna beat those Jordan Bulls. Seattle came as close as anyone.
Agreed. He played great in the series and handled his game with a lot of maturity. I felt he really became more of a master of his own game in the 1996 Finals.
@@00Mindi00 Exactamundo! That series produced the best "all around" Kemp the league had ever seen. His teammates didn't step up with him
@@bluegregory6239 😅dude it's not always about Jordan .....Jesus Christ.
Pippen and Rodman were more of a threat than anyone else for Seattle.
Man this interview brings back so many good memories of the 90s, the best decade of basketball in my opinion. Shawn Kemp is my all time favorite basketball player and the 95-96 Sonics was my favorite team. I live outside of Atlanta but Kemp was my dog! The way he played is why he was my favorite. Dunking on folks and the way he played around the basket was how basketball should be played. I can barely watch today’s game with all the 3’s and softness. I had the posters on the wall, shoes, jerseys and I rocked the sweat band under my left knee like he did. I’m glad he’s doing so well with his business. Can’t wait to see him and Payton back on the show. Thanks for the memories.
I'm so happy an elite guy like Kemp giving his flowers to Bird. Larry fucking Bird is a legend, and don't you forget it!
Both from Indy. He broke a lot of birds records. He use to beat up on Larry Bird brother.. Larry Legend said I you’re back bro lol
Larry Bird is the GREATEST FORWARD TO EVER PLAY THE GAME OF PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL. There. I said it.💯💯🕊️
The Reign man was an absolute legend…….HOF ASAP
Giving Dennis Rodman his props! I love it!!
Rodman should have been named 96 finals mvp for his play on Shawn Kemp.
@@user-gt2lb2ie5bstop it, kemp was busting Rodman’s ass
@@judahmourneth3211 He was and it could have been Jordan's and Pippen's that would have gotten busted if they had stepped up to try and defend Kemp. Rodman did the best job anyone had done on Kemp that entire season.
@@user-gt2lb2ie5b we’re talking ahi t the 96 finals. And Jordan was the best offensive and defensive player on the bulls those finals.
A lot of people were rooting for the Sonics in the 96 finals, but unfortunately that wall that caused so many of our favorite teams to fail known as Michael Jordan said No! Still the Reignman was the 90’s, the Kamikaze shoes. What some people didn’t realize was Kemp’s jumpshot was just as good as his dunks, it sux that the Sonics could never figure it out but the memories will last forever. #the90s
I didn't know it was Jordan vs The Sonics... that's crazy.
@@AphasicMute It’s crazy that one person can make that big of an impact 🤷🏻♂️
This man still has the greatest action photo in nba history...i loved kemp as a kid and still do...
Kemp was your favorite player..if you was out there dunking on people, while at the same time trying to break the rim..definitely was mines.. much respect to you Mr Shawn Reignman Kemp. You helped make me a power dunker..yessir
Miss them Seattle Supersonics days
One more year, we back!
Me too! I don't have a team since they left Seattle. Sucks
🔥🔥🔥Shawn Kemp is soooo disrespected by the NBA in terms of his impact on the league and for the game. He was a street baller before that was a term. He’s your favorite ballers, favorite baller.💪🏽✊🏽
💯🤯
Being from Seattle we needed this conversation
Players from the 80s/90s you sit and watch right the way through like a whole movie, their stories are authentic are what shaped the league to what it is now. Need a national campaign to get Latrell Sprewell and Larry Johnson, finally someone from that Knicks team, maybe John Starks! Love watching Stack and Matts genuine admiration for players like "Kemp" who we all watched light up the league and brought us great childhood memories, did Matt say five years now, amazing work.. would love to have you on MacAttack TV here in the UK London at some point.. Thanks once again for another classic... Respect.❤
When I was a kid Shawn Kemp was one of my favorite players to watch
Me Too!!!!!
Rainman!!! Reebok Kamikazes
Hell yeah!
got me a pair last month
It's Reignman
the black & white
Whenever I played NBA Jam back in the day, I always picked the Sonics and played with Kemp and GP 😎... After that UNINTERRUPTED episode, I'm definitely looking forward to this interview 💯
I used to play with Hornets on NBA Jam, and yes the Sonics were one of the best teams in the game. #goodtimes
@@reddricmorales2300Yessir!!! ✊🏾✊🏾
FACTS!!! Goated squad. Penny n Shaq combo vicious too.
I loved Clyde Drexler and Terry porter.. and Alonzo mourning and Larry Johnson were also my favorites on nba jam
@@theonewhoisbetterthanyou3570 No doubt!!!... Unfortunately, Shaq wasn't in NBA Jam, which had me salty 😂😂😂
This is a legendary interview. The Reign man brought all the smoke, just like he did on the court.
Mr Kemp should definitely be in the HOF. Secondly, When the Sonics return he needs to be an integral part of the organisation. I love Seattle and everytime I visit as I live in Australia I spend quality in Seattle. I would love to meet Mr Kemp and Mr Payton someday.
Can’t get enough of these Larry Bird trash talk stories. What a legend. Kemp is a legend too.
Great interview , now please get Dominique Wilkins . As Shawn said after the Achilles he came back and averaged 29.9 in the 92-93 season . Wilkins was the man , we need the human highlight film on All the Smoke
Preach. I'm 45 years old and nique is STILL my favorite player to this day 💯📽️
@@williewinston1498I still can’t believe they left him off NBA 50; I’m glad he got into the hall of fame , nba 75 and his own statue - yet still it feels like he didn’t get his full due - he was unstoppable, to average 30 AFTER the Achilles injury, is almost unheard of .
As a 80’s baby and a huge fan of 90’s basketball, I’m very glad to hear that Payton and Kemp are still friends till this day 🫡
My favorite player as a kid
Great show, Getting Kemp and Payton together on the podcast in Seattle on the eve of the Sonics coming back would epic.
Man, that live show with Smoke, Kemp and GP would be fire!
My ALL Time Favorite Player.... Period 💪🏿💯🫡
This shit was DOPE as fuck. Had my eyes and ears glued to my phone for the whole interview. Can't wait to see him and Gary Payton together on here. Two of my childhood heroes in the same room talking to y'all, it doesn't get much better than that. Much respect to Barnes and Jackson 🙏🏻
I was living in Seattle when Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton was the best duo in the NBA. It was a pleasure to see those guys in the city and going to games to see them work
This is testament of skill over will. Shawn was ahead as developing “Stretch 4”. He competed when the Power Forward position was stacked!!!!!!
Glad I listen to the entire interview with Rain Man, and yes he should be a Hall of Famer

This man is an Icon, an absolute legend in Indiana,prayers he finally gets in the Hall of Fame!!
He is definitely a HOF. It was a blessing to watch Kemp-Payton duo in their prime.
Love Shawn kemp! chill ass dude....matt barnes always makes his guests feel at home luv u Matt big homie
Kemp, it's not just that ball player, it's the hip-hop, the funk, the jam, the rockin' goodtime... It's the COOL stuff that you gotta see in the magazine, tv, commercial, he that kinda gangstah, the rap. The art of coolness.
Shawn is a great guy. I met him in person last year and he signed my 8yo son’s Shawn Kemp FUNKO Pop. My son now name checks Kemp as his favorite player - if you see this Shawn, thanks again. 🏀 👑
I love this show. I love to hear the stories behind the game. To hear the stories and the emotions from the players themselves, makes their legacies more meaningful.
Shawn Kemp, great stories. Love the energy. I love it.
Always seen Shawn kemp jogging in that sweat suit over at lake Washington he was always nice and said wassup. Humble dude
Kemp on that unlv squad would’ve been super crazy. Yeesh l!!!!!!
Man .......kemp at the 5 with Moses scurry coming off the bench woulda been ill😬🤦🏾♂️
Did not know that Shawn is this cool , humbled, and genuine. Love the way he talk and the way he tell stories. No political stuff, no exaggeration, nothing too fancy, always straight to the point. I love that era.
The best part of this interview is to find out that Shawn & Gary and still good with each other!! I LOVE that!
Shawn was a beast, should be HoF for sure. People forget how good he was not just a dunker but all around.
I love seeing Shawn Kemp interviews!
Besides being a great player, he has so much character and expression in his face...
Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton would be an excellent interview...
Really appreciate this episode never really heard him speak much. Seems like another one of the solid OGs
Man that is an absolutely legendary Larry Bird story
Thank you fellas for making this interview - Shawn Kemp was my favorite player day 1 - collected all his cards and this interview was priceless
Kemp was a BEAST. Loved his style of play. I'm glad they got him on here, but they high as hell doing this interview 😂
Can’t believe Kemp not in the Hall yet… that’s crazy!!!!
Kemp = GOAT and shame on the league for not having him in the HOF for years now. GP and Kemp together and live? Too much 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Much Love.💜
Payton is my 🐐! Kemp is the reason I loved being a playmaker. The Rain Man was a serious problem.
The Reign Man. In game dunk was so cold even Chris Gatling had to dap him up. Outside the Bulls and Hornets; the Supersonics was another team I played with on NBA Jam on my Sega. Bring the Supersonics back Commissioner Silver!!!
Just a simple THANK YOU GUYS
You can tell Matt Barnes was a big shawn Kemp fan
My dad took my brother and I to Magic Johnson's Summer All Star game at the Forum 1991. Shawn Kemp put on crazy show in that game!
Still got my Shawn Kemp rookie card mint condition😂😂 I ain't letting it go for less than a G. Shawn should definitely be an HOF I'd GP is in.
all i was thinking the whole episode was "has anyone ever done an interview with gp and kemp together" and then that's exactly what he suggested should happen
They went the wrong way with the money talk. They should've asked him how he's still living off his NBA money. That's the gems the youth needs.
Shawn Kemp is HOF i don't care what anyone says He was the truth
My favorite player ever. Watching Kemp in his prime was something else. He was the prototype of things to come in terms of being a legit 6'10" big man who was agile, quick, moved fluidly, was money from either side of the post and had the range to step it out to the 3. Great passing ability, great court awareness, endless swag and personality; never let his mouth outshine his game. And the dunks... OMG the dunks... NO ONE dunked as hard as Kemp. NO ONE! And to think, he had small hands and couldn't even palm a basketball. Imagine if his hands were a little bigger.
Rock on, Reign Man!!!
It's going to be real special to see Kemp, Payton and all the other former Sonics in the stands when the team returns to Seattle.
THIS EPISODE WAS 🔥🔥🔥 Kemp is a great personality for this format🔥 PEACE
If you look up the definition of a beast...you'll see a picture of Shawn Kemp dunking on a Lion 😂💯
My parents let me paint my bedroom when I was a kid… I picked half yellow half green because of the sonics and my mom hated it, cussed me out for months but it was all because of The Reign Man!! Thank you Stak and Matt for this one..
On of the best interviews, in this age of podcasting. So dope seeing Shawn Kemp choppin it up like this...
The one over Alton Lister was the LISTER BLISTER😅😅
Great interview. Reign man!!!SEATTLE in the house..
You know just to watch this show, and see the guys laugh and joke. And tell all the stories ( and all of them are not good ones to tell from a personal stand point. ) Is a great thing for people to see. To see Matt and Stephan ( Especially after only knowing him from the so called Malice. ) It's a great turn around. I'm proud of you guy, and all the work you put in. Kudos to all involved...
His take on the goat 🐐 conversation really illustrates how much he understands the game. Respect.
Man, Seattle vs. Mavericks would be the one game I would go see back then. Wife, girlfriend at the time, would get tickets for my birthday every year!!!
Man I don't need to watch this whole interview! The fact that Shawn Kemp 'The Dunk King" graced them with his presence is amazing! Much luv and respect 💯
Real talk 💯🤴🏿🏀
Dope interview. Shawn Kemp is definitely underrated glad y'all had a chance to chop it up with him
Shawn Kemp we love you, homie! Thanks for bringing that energy to that platform. Keep going
kemp a natural on the mic! hope to see him on here in the future
Shawn Kemp the realest interview y'all have had
Man that had to be one of the best interviews I have seen on the show. I know Kemp has more stories of competing. Can’t wait to see him and Gary on at the same time. Kemp is funny enough and articulates to where he could have his own podcast.
Motivational interview I’m 44 grew up loving basketball saved my life so this interview is very inspiring salute 💯
Bring back my sonics. Ever since they left, I don't have a favorite team, but I love basketball so much I try to follow all the teams as much as possible.
Your Sonics are the Thunder now. Long like OKC! Don’t you just love the orange and blue?
My All-Time Favorite Athlete EVER!! Played with such confidence and swag. Easy HOF.
Much needed episode. He is too slept on
The Rain Man brought the thunder. one of the best dunkers of all time
Salute Shawn Kemp thanks to you my pops was able to keep my sister and I fresh with the new J’s and fly clothes 😂😂😂 those were the good days
Your pops bet on the bulls vs supersonics in 96
Or he bet on the sonics period back then
Reign Man forever , give my man a place in the hall of fame
I came up watching Kemp in the 90s living near Seattle. Lucky enough to see him play many times in key arena. Much respect
Fellas, thanks for not forgetting this dude!
