"Bro what you on?" "You've been regular all game." 💀😭💀😭
That was HILARIOUS!!!
Good Defenders loves Kobe.
🐐🤫 R.I.P KOBE 🥺😔
ut b
He must have forgot that you are standing in front of Kobe. He can turn the light on and crush you.
35:25 for the kobe story
MVP!!! MVP!! MVP!!
God bless you
Thanks man
the hero we deserve
Rmon Jefferson your the real MVP
So we're not gonna talk about how good is his Kobe impression
So Entertaining!
Bro his stories are PHENOMENAL. Does he have a podcast??? If not he need one IMMEDIATELY.
!!!!
PropheSAY He’s actually quite good at telling a story.
That’s definitely the Chicago in him 😂😂
Most of us tell stories like that lol
Real talk
@@tyddavis87 "Bro what you on?" definitely Chicago
His story’s about Kobe he really describes Kobe at his realist essence! 💯🙏🏼
Keoni Lara “You had a great game young fella.” It means your show is over, it’s my game now.
Aye thats my name. But with an I
"Bro what you on??" LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 38:17
AboutMillions HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
39:05
"Before Steph was doing that" 😂😂
Yeah Kobe Bryant had a presence about himself and he commanded respect natural. There was a reason why so many called him an alpha male, he just was that guy.
true dat
Lebron tries to act like he is and he comes off more annoying than anything lol
I love that he was genuinely perplexed by Kobe’s change of pace. It’s like Kobe’s clutch factor gave him the same feeling as whiplash from an unexpected slap
That Kobe story was surreal...about the 4th quarter I watched that game to classic
What game was it?
Just typed in “Kobe Bryant 34pts be Knicks 2012”
The lakers loss that game but Kobe had a fucking epic 4th quarter. He was making every shots and keeping the Lakers close
Iman is one of THEEEEEE quality interviewees in all sports.
Iman is a great storyteller. I hope he follows Kobe’s lead and writes books or films one day also.
Sux he just got arrested for felony Marijuana in Dallas smh 🤦 why try sneak on a plane with a backpack that got to go through security. This guy so kool 😎too damn
I found this after seeing a clip of his Kobe story. I had to hear the whole thing. Homeboy is hilarious. 😩
He should still be in the league. Before the ACL tear injury, he was a great athlete and a good defender. After the injury, he was still a good role player. He hit a big shot in Game 7 against the Warriors in the 2016 Finals. The Knicks won that game he was talking about. It was during Linsanity. But Kobe was ridiculous in the fourth quarter.
th-cam.com/video/s3WG_W3dCOI/w-d-xo.html the play shump talked about
I think he goes to Brooklyn again. Kyrie and Shumpert have a good relationship it seems. I don't see that KD wouldnt mind him coming off the bench.
Broderick Simpson That 4 point play in game 7 always gets overlooked. Just as important as the Shot/Block/Stop.
@@Jack10016 agree same with loves underrated defense on curry late in the 4th
Man I was not expecting this from Iman. I was just here for the Kobe story and now I'm watching the whole thing.
I love his basketball intelligence, when he was talking about Melo he really understands how different players have to change their game to enhance each other. Loved his talk about the media bs around Melo too. F the media.
KP Kev the Poet what part was this?

I LOVE YOU KOBE
Thank you Iman Shumpert for blessing us with this story. Mamba foreva!!!
It was always magical watching Kobe in beast mode. I can’t imagine what it was like being on the receiving end
“Great game young fella”......😂😂😂😂
Iman has a gift for storytelling!! His brilliance is to be able to share his insights with honesty and humor 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
"Bro, what you on" 😂
I LOVE that Iman was with the Cavs when they won the championship!!!!!! His Kobe story was HILARIOUS! 37:19😂😂39:00
This Kobe story is such a Jordan story is how players speak of him too. They were so alike
Kobe do be making players want to stop and be like what are u doing lmao that’s how good he is 😂😂💜💛
He’s so likeable.
AND FUNNY!!!!
I love hearing him explaining how he feels about realizing he was going to do really well in life. Awesome interview
Watched this multiple times already. Love the fact he’s down to earth, intelligent and can actually go back and forth and not just high. Love that he goes in depth. Best interview I’ve seen.
Bro I had zero clue how down to earth this man is 😭 and I’ve been a knicks fan since I found out what basketball was ( unfortunately) I’m definitely gonna listen to his album when it drops 🥇🔥🐐
lol someone said he look like Amare Stoudamire now I can’t unsee it
Lol, right!
He looks nothing like amare
mark beard A little bit. “Nothing” is a crazy stretch
He does not look like Amar'e AT ALL.
Both are handsome - BUT NO.
Kobe Story @35:25
I can sit and listen to him talk all day, he’s such a great dude
I used to hoop with Shump at GT.. If they gave him the same green light that they give others he would be seen as more of a great.. He was always a rhythm scorer... Decent with 5 shots, GODLY with 12... When he heats up, he's damn near unguardable
FnIggnent there’s a lot of guys like that in the nba. If there was a nba pickup game, it would be a team full of random players to win it. Their are a few guys that are just supremely talented, but aside from them nba is all about roles
FnIggnent finally someone yelling it as it is. Shump really used to cross Niggas up and wasn’t scared to take any type of shot. Problem was he was getting so few touches they just wanted him to defend and hit open 3’s smh
If you watch his GT highlights he was nasty.. I always respected his game 💪🏾
A1 defender.
Great interview. Shumpert is inspirational makes me wanna grind harder. Appreciate you shump, can’t wait for more music 🙏🏾
Enjoyed this interview, Iman seems like a solid dude. Hope to see bro back in the league soon.
He needs a podcast because I need more of his stories or just hearing him kick the ish!
This interview was lowkey lit
Great Interview how could you not like this guy!!
Enjoyed the interview. Iman's smile, voice and laughter is so charming and engaging.
Love that Kobe story, thanks!
I'm a huge Knick fan and always really liked Iman Shumpert wherever he went. Cool interview
Be damned, I had no idea Iman went to GA Tech! Beauty and Brains. He and Teyana are a gorgeous and talented couple. I hope they last forever.
Dawn Brooks yeah me to I agree with you
This man stories makes you feel what it’s like to be in that moment
Very nice young man! Such a fabulous interview, especially his story about Kobe! 😪Wish him much success!
I love the love y'all showing Iman and MAMBA in the comments. God Bless🙏🏾
*3-14-20*
*A+☑️ Interview* . Beautiful story telling. *Kobe would be proud* . Follow his lead and start writing that book😊. Best wishes on your music and basketball careers. Sounds like you are on your way. Stay around positive people. Live your purpose (keep God 1st.) . Be happy.
Blessings.
This is definitely one of my favorite interviews 👏🏾
thanks Iman for sharing that wonderful kobe moment.. ✌ thanks for remembering Kobe.. and sharing you thoughts about the NBA.. ✌✌✌
Iman as cool as they come! Great story teller... Keeps it REAL & HILARIOUS!!
great interview. always liked Shump's game...he's a hard nose grinder. hope some team picks him up for a playoff run. valuable defender and runs the floor like a demon. never listened to his music, but i will.
This Interview could went for an Hour this was dope 💯💯💯
Just listened to Elaborate, it slaps hard! 🔥🔥🔥
I love Kobe stories
Iman is fire in this interview. He should explore a career in storytelling. This is pure joy and hilarity at its finest. Thank you
Great Interview! WoW Loved
I enjoy watching this man talk💯💯🙌
HELL of a story teller! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I love this dude 💪🏽🤙🏽
Shump is cool dude... I met him at LAX. I'm 6'5" and felt small. Lol. Respect... ONE...
He does seem nice and like a regular guy from what I've seen during interviews.
@Jeremy jazwinski he's a bigger dude. That's an NBA 6'5". Different size. Trust me.
You must be one of those 6’2” kind of 6’5”s.
I grew up in the grouphome and this particular agency had a pent house style 8-12 living in Brooklyn blah blah
with a basketball court two floors above yesssmmmmm
anyway I met him through a mutual female friend mind you its my first and only time meeting this guy right
Im gaming in my own room while my other brothers are in one the living rooms its a superbowl or some important football event or boxing idk these guys yelling they lungs out going HAM all i know cared less moving on
He sees my closet trust at the time it was the flyest ish and he showed appreciation for fashion which came along with a story he told and what i grasp from that story hes his own mind and would care less about anyone approval, genuine spirit
So anyway i say yo lets hang in the basketball court he goes crazy "get outta here no way"
We get up there and as soon as his hands touch the rock this guy didnt miss a shot for like 7 mins repeatedly no lie Im looking at him with WTF this guy is mad fit and tall WTF
I say to him "Bro what the hell are you doing with your life?" i swear my words and his were "I got just got sign to the knicks" im like "get outta here" remind you im the non sports guy while theres a room of some real fans of all sports so I get a picture before he left to mid town and showed it to the bros they went ham, "get the F outta here you mean to tell me while we were in here he was up there shooting hoops with you?" I said yup and he even came to the glass and looked at all of ya going ham on the TV for like 3 seconds
they were so hurt lol
I believe you he is cool. That's because I know

@@brianzibwowa6826 lol that’s what I thought!
Love this interview made me cry Kobe Bryant story thank you Iman 😅😂😁❤🙏🏾✊🏾👑👑
I miss him Tasha. Even though he wasn't playing we would have seen so much more from him.
Don’t call me cappin I’m just commenting bc it’s wild. Came here for the Kobe story, checked for the time stamp in the comments in case I wanted to skip, kept watching and randomly checked the time on the vid and it was 8:24. Rip Kobe true legend🖤💛💜
I love all of his interviews. This is now one of my favorites.
I love the passion that us Chicagoans have when telling stories 😂😂😂
(Yes he’s from Oak Park but that’s literally across the street from Chicago. )
Ty Davis okkkk I knew I wasn’t trippin lol I heard him say “G” and that’s Chicago all the wayyyyy. ✊🏽😊
“Chicagoans “ 😂😂
This man is too funny. Like one of the comments said, he needs a podcast asap!
24:44 My boy really spreading the jam for his meal.
😂😂😂
Chef curry wit the pot boy 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who else is here from the short? 😂 had to come find the full interview dude is hilarious
I can honestly listen to him talk...he makes such a great interview! Just saying.
He seems like a nice guy. I like the energy he gives off.
Yea he was raised right
Great Interview!!!
God help me i do so miss you Kobe. Half this world could catch coronavirus and in my heart of hearts its an issue for us to deal with while Kobe is just an utter tragic devastating loss that can't seem to go away. Simply loved that man. True love. Went to at least 75-100 Kobe games yet is the one Laker i never bumped into around LA in 23 years
Whatever this guy was mixing in the background had to be amazing. He was whipping hard af 🤣🤣🤣
Wow his music is something SERIOUS!!🎶 ✅
My dawg he not lying real Chicago dude 💯
All I can take from this is he's smart and real
A podcast with him and Teyana....bruhhh. that's a smashhhh!!!!
Go crazy Iman all the way from.westside Detroit rocking with you.homie I hope anyone that reads this gets Rich out of nowhere
36:26 he sounds exactly like kobe. Fr fr
Kobe forever 😭🐐💔
I love the kobe story. Miss him
Great Kobe story
#salute Shump. Dude always been solid.
I don't follow NBA interviews too much until very recently, but Shumpert is great. Probably doesn't want his own show or too many interviews to appear on, but he's actually much more interesting than I would think.
Great interview
Only interview I’d watch
I love Shump!
NY will always love Shump
He's self aware af 🔥
😂😂😂😂he is so funny. I miss Kobe ❤️
Here's two links to the 02-10-12 Lakers/Knicks game Iman is referring to at 37:20...

Imani is a Hooper and rapper he reminds me of a member of dunegon family. He reminds me of a down south rapper I glad he won a NBA championship too
Good observation. I see it! I miss the Dungeon Family...that was gang gang fr
Gipp from Goodie Mob😂
Shumpert should be on a team right now
This is my best buddy I met him the day he was leaving going to college to Georgia Tech, I watched all the games that he played at Georgia Tech oh the memory was like yesterday oprf. G
Shump is the Goat! Been a fan since his rookie year!
Facts bro, NYC fucks wit bro heavy
Further proof of the ignorance of young people .
Whoooaa. thats a heavy title you tossing , slow down. NYC basketball is noodles , anyone who played there lucky to move on and have a chip.
@@BigAych OK to each his own . Someone is free to feel fat girls look good , or Nikki is the GOAT too .
@@lylekelley5072 it's OK for non-New Yorkers and non pros to not understand . NYC being the " Mecca " has nothing to do with the Knicks. re-read what I posted slowly.
Boy in the background was whippin a brick 😂
LabSL
😂 back there making 4 out of 1
Cool interview
“Bro what you ON??” 😂😂😂😂
I wanna see him back in the league
When he made the comment about Georgia Tech that was one of the most ignorant comments I've heard in a while.
