I just got back from a week trip to NYC and one thing I’ll take away was going to Columbus park on a Sunday and seeing the kids running game after game as long as I was there. The city has such an immense love for the game that I’ve never seen anywhere else and it made me so happy to know the game is in good hands.
Beyond brilliant. The John Wallace segment sent me over the edge. Keep doing what you do. That run which culminated with a loss against a Kentucky team featuring three 1st round picks, freshman Ron Mercer & Reed Sheppard's dad was the defining moment of my basketball viewing life. Love this video so much.
What you did is AMAZING. I grew up in France before Tony Parker, Diaw, Pietrus, when EU players only dreamt of the NBA and I would read French Bball Magazine (couldn't speak English then) and their description of New York basketball and you just made me go back and dream again. I'm a LAKERS fan but the culture of new york basketball is beyond amazing. Thanks
This was so so good. Makes me miss all the characters I met in 15 years of hooping on those NYC courts. NYC and basketball go hand in hand in such a weirdly perfect way, and this captures it as well as it can be in just minutes.
Loved this. I know this video won't get the numbers it deserves which means the higher ups are less likely to produce more of this content, but people truly appreciate this stuff too. Hope to see more.
As a NY native, I loved this episode of the series. Really captures the love and culture of the city even outside of basketball. Love your writing J Kyle Mann 👏🏽
Great video man I could’ve easily ended up in it i’m always at that park on crystie and Houston i saw a couple of people I play with in the video and i’ve played with Adam Sandler a hand full of times(cool dude), i’ve watched most if not all your videos and this one was particularly cool, thanks.
You guys did a great job with this. Streetball in NYC is maybe the greatest free entertainment in the world. The culture is so deep and the talent is electric. You can spend a summer day on a circuit going from court to court. Also Mr Get It Done is a legend.
As a fan of your writing, and all of the Ringer's more soulful editorial, this really hit. I grew up in the places you profiled and there's nothing like feeling seen with love and care. Shouts to all the important mentions, names, spirits, and styles this video represents. I can't wait to see how other cities embrace you. Salute!
We need another volume this, please! Well Done. Run it back come spring 2025. Go to each borough. Talk to people about their connections to their local basketball courts. The bodega runs for drinks and snacks. Post games at your favorite pizzeria. So much gold there. If you need help with this drop me a line. I'll work for free. Good stuff.
This is beautiful. To attempt to cram all of New York City's basketball history into a comprehensive 30 minute document would be a huge mistake, as would looking for that as a viewer clicking on this link. What Kyle has done here instead is grab a slice of it, contextualize it, and really make us feel it, and appreciate how it is all connected. Really good man.
I see J Kyle Mann’s name in the title and I click.
That’s just what you do.
He's fantastic
bro is his own brand/personality at this point. Cult following lol
A beautiful deep dive in to the world of NY basketball. Need more episodes of Home and Away.
I can't believe I get to watch this for free. So, so, so, so good.
This video is giving me energy I didn't even know I needed.
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE.
Honestly guys, this was so good, exactly what I was looking for recently.
Love anything J Kyle Mann does and Home + Away will be no different. Great stuff. Basketball is love
I'm hoping you guys vist Washington D.C. or the DMV. Basketball is everything there and you can see it in so many players from the area.
This is so damn good. Kyle’s content is consistently the best The Ringer has to offer.
Nobody expects video like this on The Ringer. But I need you guys to know that it’s freaking beautiful ❤️
Excellent commentary on the New York basketball scene. Hope to see more from you in the future
J. Kyle Mann content has become an auto watch for me. Keep it up Ringer!

That kid couldn’t miss!!!

Beautifully written and wonderfully shot! Really love how you speak about NY basketball culture and loving a sport that brings people together
This is a love letter to NYC basketball. No one does it like J. Kyle! Thank you for this!

Incredibly proud to support the work being done by the Ringer team
The Jon Wilson influence is a joy. What a great idea for a series.
That interruption into the Sidetalk Knicks video was perfect. I also thought where do I know him from 😂

its so cool to see j kyle mann play in parks i played at as a kid
That Mr Glass guy is pretty good 🙃⛹️♂️
Kyle you have a nice sounding voice and you're a really good story teller. This was really cool, man.
There’s no better local community leader than Poo Harding, from Brevoort Houses. He keeps that place alive and thriving.
Waiting for the J. Kyle Mann feature length basketball doc
Amazing
Absolutely awesome stuff. So cool to see the stories of so many different people united by hoops. J Kyle Mann stays winning.
this was lovely
Big J Kyle Mann fan
Great narrator, super creative
More J Kyle Man, loved seeing some courts I played on in this video
Thank you for doing this! Anyone that really loves basketball really should visit NYC.
this life is unbelievably good
Philippines should one of the features.
Big "How to with John Wilson" vibes from this, especially with the editing. Btw if you've never seen the show, that's a compliment.
Damn Kyle. You should make more of these.
I don’t often actually like TH-cam videos but I had to with this, it was that good, well done all
Love this and as an Iona alum getting a S/O is so dope!
“He’s not one of these people who loses their minds… he’s already lost it.” Beautiful

This was awesome do more of these
The Ringer does John Wilson for hoops
I like it!

cool video.. I just subbed to this channel
Really good video. As someone who grew up playing bball all my life in NYC, this resonated with me deeply. Very well done!
yo thats me in the first part 😮
J. Kyle Mann living legend like my guy Jokic.
Not since “How to with John Wilson” ended have I seen the city so beautifully captured
Need more.
Should come down to nc for the John wall invitational and all the college ball
J Kyle The Muf'n Mann
Kyle playing pickup in jeans is diabolical 😂
I came before the intro ended. I will look forward to next time Mr Kyle Mann
This was outstanding.
These are great! Keep doing what you’re doing. Please consider Chicago!
woody allen's athletic brother sounds so young narrating on this
Great intro song choice. RIP Glen Campbell
Incredible
The new J kyle Mann podcast series should be recorded in a chillis.
What is this sweet cover of Wichita Lineman at the beginning?
ESPN just don't make shit like this! 100 100
Kyle is one helluva writer
Great job👏🏼🏀🫡
