Nate Robinson is extremely underrated. He was a beast for the Bulls.
and the knicks, they just wouldn't unshackle him !!
Facts tht game vs nets. Mannn nate was that guy fr
Underrated? Foh... he is correctly rated. A good NBA player... that's it..
man as a bulls fan he was the sole reason our team stayed alive over that span rose was hurt
@@nephalm5357are you that bored , pound for pound , by square inch , he is so clearly better than any player you love. Nate had a very long career so fuck what your taking about , how many teams did he prove himself too and even got burn on those teams . You clearly are a nba fan and not a ball player
Nate Robinson was my grandma’s favorite player. She used to watch him on the Knicks and I loved him as a Celtic. Even with her dementia she forgot family names, but remembered Nate Robinson fr.
@frankp7270you are a fuckin lame. 🤦♂️
@frankp7270ur wild 4 this🤣🤣🤣🤣
Celtics he was awesome there
@@AlbassaWanehe's not wild. He's a clown.
😂
Nate really made everyone who was shorter than 5'10 feel like they could go to the NBA
No he didn't he was fun to watch stop glazing
Muggsy Bogues (5'3) and Spud Webb (5'6)
@@djgoesfishing Right.
@@CleanMusicLover229 now spud koo but muggsy not nobody favorite player weak dude 🤣
@@djgoesfishingwhat you mad about 🤣 I'm gone take Gilbert advice and laugh at you
Earl boykins to me the most underrated little hoopers ever and he doesn’t get talk about enough shortest player to dunk in game and shortest to get 30+
Look at Miko and rashad being nice to each other...👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I think this was recorded before that
Listen I scanned these comments to see who else noticed
As a 5’8” cat, Nate made me feel like I could go to the league! Love this one ☝️
Super Underrated.
He has to be one of the most athletic basketball players in NBA history.
I'm 6'6" and I wish I had a ounce of Nate Rob's jumping ability/dunk package. #salute
bro i’m 5’9 and can only grab rim. i feel that. guys like nate need way more praise. he was such an insane athlete
Gil must of made mccants and miko sit next to each other 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
Had to hug it out before the video 😆
@@chrisisslick 😭😭😭😂😂😂
y'all so lame
I was looking for this 😂😂
Lol
Glad to see Nate out and about much love to Seattle's finest
Man growing up in Seattle I played Rotary basketball with Nate's brother Chicken since like 2nd grade. We used to always look up to Nate even tho he was smaller 😂 he was a superhero. Still is man. Love and respect to the legend. WE KNEW he was THAT guy!
I was at UW with their dad Jacque.. great athlete
You def from Seattle lol man’s said Rotary!!!! Memories man.
He'll yeah Henderson was lit.
Gil's Arena is so good, that an hour show feels like 30 mins.
It's pretty good. I like it more than when it was labeled as No Chill
Ay same name ✊🏾
bruh this is my #1 pod fashooooo
It is what it is
No lies determined
@@TRU.tv.both of em… I watch that when I want to hear the regular person take … shit be hilarious …
Let’s just say podcast. Pod is super corny.
deff not even close
I remember when he was in Denver and him and ty Lawson went off in LA and he was rocking the gamma 12's🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damn that’s crazy, imagine how many players end up trash because they’re coach told them stop shooting
Nate is one of my all time favorite players. So much heart.
🧢
@@mikeanthony8122what you mean?
As a Knicks fan, I loved Nate and he was the first player I can remember whose treatment by a coach you could tell was foul. He was first dissed by Larry Brown and later by Dantoni. Instead of freeing him to be the creative unstoppable scorer they wanted to make him be something else and did not show him the love and respect he deserved!
Those are both system coaches with tons of wins. Larry Brown made AI the player he became around a system. That's what is wrong with the game today, just a bunch of dudes playing streetbxll
@@robbyrobinson4500you never had a chance to make the league so just enjoy the evolution of the game
@@michael-kl6ut I played 6 yrs in the league, what you talking about. Lol
@@robbyrobinson4500Nice, what's your name?
True, he said Dantoni sat him for a month once and didn't even speak to him..
S/o Nate he definitely made me feel like I can make the league back in the day! Always heart over height….it ain’t the dog in the fight, but the fight in the dog my guy 💪🏾
Except for the fact that you were not born with his supernatural athletic gifts, including a damn near 50 inch vertical.
@@marcelmarshall4240key words “made me feel” it’s like u didn’t read
Why it look like they visiting Nate from a rehab center 😂😂
Because he's dying, sadly. Kidney failure.
Exactly what nate said... these new gen fans, especially from 2015+, only care about PPG. You can play zero defense but score 25+. Don't matter how you get it, as long as you're scoring you'll be a god in their books
Bring State Of Nate back that was one of my favorite TH-cam shows when I was in high school nate was a monster frfr
Show was so fire man lol
I’m mad they didn’t bring up when Nate & McCants played in the Big 3 and Nate hit game winner then grabbed McCants mask 🤣
😂😂😂mccants was tight
They not allowed to talk about the Big 3 in GilsArena
@@The_CTSVfor real?
@@The_CTSVthey talked about the big3 wit hella guests. They prolly just forgot tbh or Mccants/Nate just ain’t want it brought up on camera.
I swear I was thinking about that it's funny to see him sitting there with that smile
Little man with the heart of a Lion. Shout out to Nate 💪🏽
UDUB legend by being a stud CB in football and starting over JR Brandon Roy. My pops loves his dad Jacque like a god as he won a Rose Bowl and Orange Bowl for UDUB in 82 and 84. Legends!
This is one of the best sit down and Chopup episodes. I did not want It to finish..Respect to Nate.
Damn I loved hearing Nate n Brandon talk about their little battle. Not the biggest names but the ones who know, know that them two were real entertaining players and elite buckets getters
Love the admiration y’all have for y’all’s kids
Damm Nate dog is hard! Love his passion ❤️. That's what players now are missing. The love and fire. Nate was 🔥 when he checked in . All love man.
I respect this dude more than alot of dudes I watched play the game.
NATE ROB !! Idc what happened in that boxing match he took a risk 99% of us won't even think about doing cause of what happened to him. All it take is one punch but I respect that he even stuck his neck out there no risk it no biscuit!!
Nate was a good interview he should be on a podcast
This was already my favorite pod but yall got Nate on this joint it's UP. Salute ✌🏿🖤🌅
Surprising but not surprising. They all had great input into the conversation and made for a great conversation from a player we don’t hear enough from
I was just googling this dude because he was everywhere, the Jake Paul fight happen and I didn't see him anymore. Good to see he doing well.
I’m surprised he still ain’t sleep 😴
Good to see people give Nate his flowers and actually remember him for what he did on the court!
We damn sure can’t forget what he did in the boxing ring 😂
Yiiikes
People forget but before Isaiah Thomas (Celtics IT) there was Nate Robinson. So when you think of it. Nate Robinson was Isaiah Thomas before Isaiah Thomas.
@@brandong5676🌽🏀
Bro never should’ve fought Jake Paul. Hell forever be a meme.
Fight? That more like a moth vs a bug zapper. Peyton vs a snap back. Michael J Foxx vs Jenga. A absolutely mismatch…that we enjoyed every minute….iMean, every second of it
Nate Robinson Legendary This podacst is Legendary...Authentic
Always was a fan of Nate and amazing interview. I’m happy to see him doing good.
I remember nate was cooking in the clutch in playoffs back then in Chicago
Nate is the fuck’n man..Definitely was one of them!!
If you're from Seattle, you know exactly what Nate is sayin about the SE CD beef 😅
Great Episode, Love & Blessings!!!

Nate Robinson needs to bring back his TH-cam show.
Nate was always one of my favorite players even from his NY days! When the Bulls got him I was so excited (I’m from the Chi and a diehard Bulls fan). He has so many great plays on that team! Chicago loved him! I was mad when they don’t keep him! He kept us afloat and he was really good in the playoffs! That starting lineup of him, Jimmie, Taj, and Noah was nice defensively! Then we had Rip and Lu coming off the bench. Then Rose came back the next season and they let him go and I was too mad! I remember during that time he was in Chicago my baby brother was on the basketball team at his high school and I was working at a university in financial aid and admissions. So I was real cool with the bball team and the football team for the college and the coaches. I went to the bball coach and told him able my brother and asked him did he have any tips for him. First thing the coach asked was how tall is he. My baby brother was under 5’5” at the time and I’m 5’7” so I told the coach he’s shorter than me and the coach was like if he doesn’t have height he penalty won’t get any looks but he gave me a little advice for him. I Rod my baby brother but I added don’t let your height stop. Your heart is what matters most and I tops him look at Nate Robinson. My brother used that and made his IG and FB makes HeartOverHeight. He didn’t go to far but that boy was a dog on the court. They were trying to fool him hard but he got every time and earned the respect of his teammates and the rivals. One time they fouled him so hard my mom was about to run on the court and I had to hold her back lol. Nate is one of the greats in my book!
Good shit y’all. This podcast is the best.
My 2 favorite players man BJ3 and nate made me a basketball fan 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
My Undisputed #1 podcast rn!💯 And Number 2 would have to be No Chill Gil🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the heads up i thought this was live
Love this podcast 💯real recognize real
Everytime nate played he turn up ❤ nate robinson.
This is one of my favorite players of all time that Bulls playoffs run Nate was *COLD*
Im glad to see Nate doing alright I know he was sick not too long ago
It’s crazy how coaches can literally help propel or derail a career. I had no idea he walked on, but good on his coach recognizing his skill and effort and signing him the next year.
Had the EXACT same situation my freshman year and I was killing our scholarship players. But we had an assistant who played high D1 and HATED walk-ons. Used to brag about hazing and bullying them. He convinced my coach to not give me a full scholarship and only a partial. And did that every year. I basically gave up on a real basketball career and was just on the team until I graduated (though I continued to kill everyday).
It did pay off somewhat because outside ppl fucked with me and got me overseas…but no matter how good I did my 3 seasons abroad, I kept losing big contracts to players who had a more decorated college career than me…even when the coach or owner would acknowledge I was better. They said at the end of the day they have to fill seats, and fans follow popularity, not skill.
Ended up retiring after my 3rd season because it was an uphill battle
Them shoes hard mccants 🔥
Them cold is hell
NATE THE GREAT RESPECT LOVED WATCHING U PLAY
i met nate in white plains ny a few times in the nysp watching him playing regular dudes before we went to our 9-5.... he was def real & cool af
Nate was one of my favorite players to watch
His year with the Bulls when he helped to beat the Nets in the playoffs was one of my favorite seasons ever as a Bulls fan
