Amazing podcast and so refreshing to hear real conversations. Great personal stories and also so much insight into what the league could be sometimes. That podcast is a must see! Keep up the good work! ❤
This interview is so powerful. Wall revealed so much. Never seen wall so comfortable talking. His memory is crazy - remembers everything like yesterday. Impressive. I learned so much from this.
I saw a podcast with him and Gilbert Arenas, he was just as chill and honest. That was a good one too because they cleared up all the rumors that they were beefing on the Wizards.
@@6gangentertainment747 Dude, you were right about one thing: his memory is shit. Not clear as shit, but shit. Entertaining, but pure fantasy. It's as if he dropped acid and thinks his hallucinations were real.
Ludd, his memory is *literally* crazy, he's making shit up out of thin air. Probably not intentionally, but his memory has seen better days. He wasn't even close to getting a quadruple-double in his third game, he had two rebounds, not 10. And Kirk Hinrich was traded during halftime? What the fuck is he talking about??? Hinrich was inactive and wasn't in uniform his last two games in Washington before his trade to Atlanta. I could go on for the next hour, but I'm already getting writer's cramp.
Can’t imagine losing my mother, almost losing my career & getting traded from a place I spent 10 years at… all in the midst of a year & a half Glad to see John is doing ok & thriving
@@nuv2408 clearly it’s not about the money didn’t you hear homie said that money and fame don’t make things easier? Cmon bro you’re smarter then this, let’s see how you feel if you lost everything with all that money and I bet you you’ll be miserable stop it 💀
@@DonMaximus98 if you believe money doesn’t make things easier then you are delusional. Yes money doesn’t make things better but it sure takes a lot of load/stress away. People losing family members is always tough, glad he didn’t have to go through the issue of being able to pay for a proper funeral like many people do. Glad he didn’t have to stress about being able to get the right help of a therapist with proper money insurance that he has benefits from.
They do open up when it's a podcast like this. They don't open up to mainstream media but podcasts like this, all the smoke, Buckets etc. They will usually keep it real
Amazing interview. I love when players are open and when we as fans can hear stories from their perspective and in their own words instead of ESPN snippets and bs rumors. John Wall is and will forever be a legend!
I’m happy to hear John talk about his time in DC, we still love you here. I had tucked away in my head all the playoff memories because of that Atlanta and Celtics series. I really felt we could have went to the finals that year if we beat the Celtics. Always rooting for you champ
@@Artislife1992 y’all should’ve tho I actually wanted you guys to do it because it would’ve been perfect for you guys as a organization I’m a heatlifer and I’ll always respect Washington, Wall was and still is my Favorite PG wished we could’ve nabbed him but his contract was too high, Wall ain’t washed he just needs to be on the right team 💯
I'm from dc, and when wall left I swear it felt like your favorite cousin or family member was moving out of town lol.. one of the most genuine and down to earth athletes ever!!!
@@iiFlak It's easy to forget DC/Maryland is the South, our northern boundary literally was the Mason/Dixon line. When I go visit my family in NY, they always said I had a Southern accent.
One of the best hoops podcast out. Real hoops talk, brings out each guest humility, and humor/entertainment from Theo. This pod should definitely blow up this year.
This is BY FAR the best podcast interview I've seen! Also I love how NBA players/College players are taking the same approach, and sharing their life experiences.
Being a Kentucky native and life long super fan, I must say I love John and really enjoyed his time at Kentucky, It was like a movie, I was like 15 at the time In 2009-10, Drake was a Kentucky supporter, John and Demarcus had Lexington boomin. Great video.
John wall a real one…this is why I love watching podcast because you really get to know and find out how the current and former players are off the court and it’s more than just basketball
John Wall is one cool azz down to earth dude...I have had the pleasure of meeting him twice. I saw firsthand how he interacts with the fans in the city. He shows so much genuine love. DC does really love John sooo much!! No matter where he goes...He is "ours"! I hope he gets to come back to the Wizards one day.
This has to be hands down one of the greatest sports athletes and entertaining interviews of all time... When John was speaking about the SAT's I was done lmao... I grew the opposite reading was helpful and the math was the toughest. Day 1 Great Wall of DC fan!
I gotta say hearing J.Dubs speak was very motivating and extremely informative and sincere. Dude is real and I like that he told it like it is raw and uncut. My son loved it and is currently watching all of John Walls clips. Thank you to John for your story and thank you two gentlemen for having such a tremendous podcast. Wishing you all the best and much continued success.. 1 love..straight outta Brooklyn, NY.
I don't usually mess with the NBA like that...more into the NFL, but I remember when Wall was drafted so I peeped this interview and watched the whole thing. He definitely is a good story teller and kept it interesting the whole time. I loved how he touched on mental health and all of that. I had no idea he was struggling with suicidal thoughts in 2020 after the passing of his mother, grandmother and dealing with that injury.
Wizards fan here..we still love you over here in the city John..you truly a DC LEGEND. We watched you grow up bro & everything he said was facts!! He really showed love to the city..especially SE Ward 8!! You will forever be GOAT’d 🐐here..love!! 🤜🏾🤛🏾
went to NCCU around the time John was getting ready to head to KY. I remember him dogging everyone at the pro am summer 2010. Definitely one of the best athlete interviews I’ve seen. Open, transparent, and candid. Please continue to give us this type of content! Thank you guys.
you a winner John, its ain't about the accolades in nba, its about life. you stayed true to your self and always put 100% in. You got the bag, family and community are really what matters. Wishing you the best man.
John Wall too real and honest and humble, down to earth dude gotta love it still one of the best hoopers, whos not done yet💪🏿 I watched his field to get back in league was cool watching him foreal
Big facts bro! 💯 I grew up down the road in Clayton/Garner and was a big UNC fan but freshman year that man had all of us rocking the Nike two tone white/ Kentucky blue colored arm sleeve.
58:15 John in your first home game (November 2, 2010) you didn't have 10 rebounds, only 2. So you were nowhere near a quadruple-double. That said, you played a PHENOMENAL game. Liked this interview and respect your career. ✊🏼
Do y’all remember how big the “John wall” dance was?? I live in Lexington & was a freshman in hs 2010. These was the DAYS. Black ops just came out that year too… literally amazing days
As a 56 year old native of ky. and a uk super fan. Of all the players and of all the teams , I have to say John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins 2009 2010 was my favorite of all time! Wow what a Duo.. not to leave anyone out of that team . 5 first round picks for NBA …. Krazy!!
This was fire. John was the reason I started watching college basketball and the NBA draft. Didn’t miss any of his summer league games either. Glad to see him in a good space after all he’s been through.
Ok finally got my guy on here. 💯 Get well John! Need ya back out there with 8 games left till All Star break. 🙏🏾💪🏾 I just wanna see coach Lue give John the same opportunity as Reggie. We all know Reggie only started because of loyalty. 🤔💯
@@TheAbstract35 facts over feelings. He’s averaging the most assists on the team. And he has better stats than Reggie who’s now on the bench for a reason. But yall Clippers fans keep blaming John for the teams issues. He would be averaging more assists too if this team wasn’t shooting so trash from three. 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Thank you John Wall! This is how you continue impacting the community🙏🏽 Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your personal experiences for all of us and the next generation of talented hoopers🙏🏽
John was MVP status before he got hurt. He was finally starting to get his recognition that year too. Still a goat though. Mid to late 90's babies were all impacted by this guy
Damn man I stayed up watching this video from beginning to end John wall is a great down to earth person bro. I love a %100 honest person you can tell he tells no lies
Let us know what y'all thought of the pod... we got a lot more guests coming up so make sure you subscribe

Keep up the good work! ❤
Great Podcast. Did yall thing, as a Duke fan stop hyping up UNC and Kentucky.
Man y’all killed it! I’ve never seen him so open and comfortable.
This unironically the greatest interview given by a current NBA player. The City loves u Wall. 💔
Fr he spoke nothing but the truth
I saw a clip and quickly realized I had to watch the whole interview.
DC loves him
Facts , he don’t sound fake and timid like the rest
/2 o love WWE. 😊 😊

As a DC native this will ALWAYS be John’s city. ALWAYS! He endeared himself to us and made himself a part of this community. He gave us an identity
DC legend fasho
nah fr
So fuck Mj huh lol 😂
@@Marshann91 mj ain’t do nothing for the low income community, wall came to my middle school and gave out school stuff and target gift cards.

As a Wizards fan I still feel hurt that we traded John Wall for Russ. He was a pillar in the community.
The whole city .... im still believe he will come back
Facts
Russ Came in and Did work tho.

John Wall too honest 😭 most players don’t speak so casually in interviews
They do open up when it's a podcast like this. They don't open up to mainstream media but podcasts like this, all the smoke, Buckets etc. They will usually keep it real
Advantage for players starting their own podcast
John and Theo go way back so it’s easy for him to open up with his boy
He got bread now and he content. He giving that real now and I love it 🤣
Love what Wall said.. keep it 100, too real!
The greatest J. Wall interview ever
Real basketball IQ, remembering specific sets and scenarios from years ago. Breaking down each moment, very impressive.
There special memories to him listen to the tone in his voice

Witnessed that game in Carolina against Devan Downey, that man is a Legend from our city!
This has to be my favorite NBA interview period - there was one with Kobe that I loved but this one is dope - authenticity and relatability

Man S/O to John! One of the realist to ever do it, and if you were born in the 90’s you looked up John Wall. Your story matters OG!
