When Matt Barnes speak about basketball perspective he's much more reliable, believable and has substance other than guys in LeSPN like that Perkins and Shannon 🤫🤫
SHannon doesn’t work for ESPN lol
yeah matt barnes nice with it lol they all know it too.
and that cornball jalen rose
They didn't mention lebron so you had to make him relevant huh?
Perkins has discovered the more artificial praise he heaps on LeBron the better it will be for him @ ESPN. Soon he'll have his own show if he keeps up the LeBron narrative
Real Talk! Matt Barnes is a more reliable analyst than Perkins. Period.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
That's not even a compliment, Perk is terrible.
There giving Perkins his reps so he can be more confident in front of camera. They are breaking him in too give him more experience in front of camera.
Patrick no Lol they are giving him more air time because he’s a Lebron apologist,he’s on the Klutch payroll and his job is to boost lebron up it’s so obvious 😂
Kobe Bryant's body may be resting but his spirit and his essence will forever live on ❤️🙏
daurice d and continue to be disrespected by ESPN daily because they are bored
Wow what a comment son.
"I don't get five championships here without him." - Kobe on MJ🐐
Forever with . Us . Amen
Bring Matt more often
Pay him more
He should take Stephen A spot
@@antjackson524 lmao yeah i could see him and max having a decent conversatin without yelling
Don't hate on Stephen A.,as Matt Barnes started on ESPN by having First Take invitations when Skip Bayless was on there.🏀
MJ was not the only person that didn’t want him on the team. Stop blaming everything on him🙄
Thank you I've been saying that there were other players on that team that didn't get along with Isiah it was just easier to use Jordan as a scape goat
Yeah but those other players didn’t just have a documentary that has them saying they never said I don’t want isaih on the team. Which turned out to be a lie. And cmon he’s Michael Jordan he’s opinion is greater than everyone else’s. His voice has influence
Exactly
Truth as a Detroiter who loved the bad boys looking back in all honesty they played so dirty way beyond normal hard fouls of course he and others didn’t want them on the team!
Exactly people are acting like he made the choice to keep him off the team. He just told them he would play but if IT is on the team he isn't he gave them a choice and they choose MJ and the other players on dream team didn't want him on the team also but MJ getting the blame and has said if you want to blame me go ahead
Bring MATT BARNS always..
and even though matt barns isn't the top players.. he has big brains...
rather than KENDRICK PERKINS..
and SHANNON and NICK WRIGHT..
who is this three CLOWNS...
💯💯💯💯💯
They all missed the big picture he disliked Isiah for being the leader of the team that wanted to take his legs out and possibly end his career. But they get paid to talk basketball?
100%... the handshake might have just been the final straw on the camels back. After all those wrestling moves on MJ, and MJ shaking his hand for the 2 years, Isiah couldn't shake his hand. It's like... Okay cool, I dont want anything to do with you, so he gave Dream Team staff an ultimatum.
Can't believe these so-called experts and former players didn't mention this.
So why did MJ play when Chuck Daly was the ACTUAL LEADER of a team that wanted to take out his legs and possibly end his career? Last time I played...the coach set the policy and game plan for the team to follow. I dont recall Chuck Daly sitting anyone for anything they did whether it was to MJ or anyone else.
MrBlend when you have Jordan say the pistons were bad champions why would u Shake there hand
NAh Isaiah Froze him out during the Allstar game.
It’s weird seeing him on ESPN again after watching all of his podcasts 😂😂😂
Facts hahaha
His podcast are superior. Too many plebs still only is ESPN
Knuckle heads with Q rich and d miles is also fire
That Dominique guy has the worst personality, speech and arguments I ever heard on this show
@@sdfishinn thats fair
Two things here are true:
1. Michael said "If Isiah is on the team, I'm out."
2. Michael did not make the decision to remove Isiah Thomas from the team. He wasn't lying when he said he wasn't "In on that decision." He just said "it's either him or me." So Jordan wants to have it both ways, and technically, he does.
I mean that is his right, and it's up to them to decide who they want at that point. Obviously, you take MJ, especially since other great players also had issues with IT like Bird, Magic, Barkley, etc.
He was that great of a player their was no other choice but him.
@@pickle.786 And there you go. It seems people would understand this, even if he deserved to be on the team.
@@brown_xKMD Did you read the book that Magic wrote a couple of years ago. Where he admitted HE didn´t want Isiah on the team. Because of the rumours Isaih spread about homosexuality of Magic. Than you have Bird, who didn´t like Isiah either. His role in it is underrated and under the surface. So you have your 2 teamcaptains who didn´t want I on the team. Your main superstar, Jordan, also didn´t want him. And then you have the two best secondants, Malone and Pippen who didn´t want I. on the team. What do you do if you have to make the selection? 5 of your biggest HOF won´t go, versus one HOF, who already had many controverses around him. I think it´s the NBA´s biggest chief back than, David Stern and his commitee, who made the decision, because he knew a dream team without 5 of the biggest star would have been an deception. Sure they would have won the gold medal either, but the world wide marketing would be nearly half a commercial succes. In short, I think Stern (mis) used the grieves of all those players where he could hide himself. The media picked up all the rumors and focussing on all the beef. But it was of course the decision of the NBA commite.
John Poot bro it’s Jordan fault and his only
I'm loving how Jack n Matt have their own hit podcast and don't need ESPN.. Actually ESPN need them for exclusive content, because players don't talk to this talking heads..
No truer words have been spoken
Bruh.. Zeke's own head coach, who coached the Dream Team, didnt vouch for him. People skip over that part lol. Clearly the leaders of the team, MJ, Larry and Magic didn't want to play with him. Doesn't matter what anyone else thought. If those 3 guys wanted him, he'd be there. And...i don't blame them. Zeke was the representative of those Pistons teams. Those dudes were out to injury guys and win by any means necessary. Every team who faced them was willing to throw hands because of it. When you saw Zeke, you also saw guys like Laimbeer...who was the most hated dude in the league
Good point.
Lambeer was the one who told them to not shake the bulls hands.
That really rubbed me the wrong way. And he was congratulated by some other white guy(and he seemed ecstatic also) just before getting to the tunnel.
Isiah was a crab. He did a lot of things that many players of his era didn't rock with.
Kobe did not adopt anything. He had the same drive that Jordan had.
yeah he did he adopted the behavior and mindset. A bar was set and Kobe worked towards that. You don't get kobe without MJ displaying the mindset and behavior. He said it himself. The word "Adopt" literally means to follow.
Lebron fans here to defend Zeke 😂
seriously tired of that little weasel dominique
Matt Barnes is definitely one of my favorite analyst. Hands down.
This is why I love Matt Barnes, cause he always speak with facts & clarity from an unbiased standpoint.. MJ wasn't a manipulative or vindictive person, he was a FIERCE COMPETITOR, & you're not supposed be a "nice guy" on the court!!! Domonique & Kendrick don't get it, cause they had SUBPAR & LACKLUSTER careers😒☕
Dude it wasn’t just mj that didn’t want him on the team. Barkley, Karl, Scottie, didn’t want him on the team
Bird and Magic also
Barkley liked Zeke.. The others hated him
David Robinson, Magic and Stickton also did not want Isiah on the team.
When Matt Barnes speaks, I listen because he doesn't interject bias and emotion into his analysis. And, Matt is the first in all of this analysis of "Lying Mike" to bring up the issue of memory. You have guys trying to remember things that occurred 30 plus years ago. I can't remember what occurred yesterday. And I don't see what MJ said in the documentary that different from what he said on the audio. Matt is level-headed and if you want an honest analysis, just listen to Matt. Congrats on your podcast, Matt. You and Jack are hitting it out of the ballpark.
Matt and Jalen was on point in this one. This era to soft to understand rivalries between competitors, especially the bronsexuals.....
It’s pretty obvious it’s MJ time and everyone was falling in line except isiah thomas love his skill , but his attitude was gon hold back the dream team back from getting the gold . One sour grape can mess up the batch. MJ made a business decision!
Dream Team won gold. Maybe the player choices were right.
I love how not only did they reduce MJ's feelings to "just because Isiah didn't shake his hand" and alleviate the facts that the Pistons physically beat MJ up every game with the Jordan rules taking cheap shots and throwing him to the floor! Not to mention Brid, Magic, Pippen and Barkley didnt want to play with Isiah because he took it too far with them too! But let's just put it all on MJ lap!
Didn't Rodman play on that same Pistons team that used to beat MJ?
@@kb24theMVP yes he was. But before signing with the Bulls he apologized to Jordan and Pippen as did John Salley and James Edward's. They all squashed the beef. Isiah has not, till this day he refuses to even act like there was any rough play. He just smiles and says, "I don't know what you are talking about".
Rest In Peace Gianna Bryant and Kobe Bryant.
Matt “ All the Smoke” Barnes
Matt Barnes is doing a great job. Big ups brother!
Isaiah didn’t make the Dream Team. So what! Cry me a river, build a bridge & GET OVER IT. Stop whining!!! Sir Charles never one a NBA Championship but he’s not whining. He’s a MAN. He’s a Champ in my book!
Isiah and his Pistons deliberately tried to get Jordan injured up until 1991. You add that to the rest of the things Isiah was a part of against Michael, I understand MJ.
U mean everyone they competed against
@@soolthegreat1581 true, but they had specific rules for one guy and one guy only, "the Jordan rules "
He didn’t keep ISIAH OFF. It was Rod Thorn fault. Jordan just told them it’s either me or him. Meaning if he’s on it (Isiah) then Jordan said he’s off. And other players didn’t want to play with Isiah and ISIAH COACH as well didn’t want him on the team. 🤷🏽♂️
Matt Barnes is brilliant,💯
Stop blaming MJ!!! Half the team didn’t want to play with Isaiah including Magic,Pippen, & Barkley! I guess it’s a better narrative to blame MJ
Isaiah thomas, magic Johnson and the rest of the 85 all stars did Micheal Jordan dirty when he was a rookie go google it. I wouldn't have sympathy for Isaiah thomas either. he was dirty to jordan, he along with other all stars in 85 begged to keep MJ off the team and after he lost to MJ in the playoffs he didn't shake his hand that was the last straw
There were other players that didn't like Isaiah either. MJ wasn't the only one not wanting Isaiah on the Dream Team, which is why even Coach Daley didn't stand up for him.
Matt is a great guest.
I have no clue how Foxworth got his gig or even played in NFL. He should be the face of Me Too movement cuz he is a sally
I think MJ was the first to say, if hes on the team I dont want to play, and others agreed and followed suit. Nobody liked the Bad Boys. Its like having your group of friends or peers, that nobody really wants that one person around because its going to drag down the environment......Thats Isiah!
Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson got the smoke. More of these Men
I disagree when you do underhanded things to an individual and he gains a lot of power do not be surprised when the make sure you do not make the team lol.
MJ didnt want Isiah on team. His voice maybe louder but he is not alone in not wanting thomas on the team.
i love matt barnes im glad he is having such a strong post career
Yeahhh it seems the panel missed the point that Isaiah Thomas was beefing with half the team. And he was beefing with the SUPERSTARS of the team. MJ AND MJ. Let's see Michael Jordan/Magic Johnson or Isiah Thomas...hmm. Yeah easy decision. Get him outta here.
I like MATT. His Analysis is always on point and he say it the way it is. We can not argue with players who played with and against other Great PLAYERS, especially the ones who really put their WORK as Competitors!
I don’t understand how Dominique Foxworth doesn’t understand how Isaiah Thomas did two acts of bad sportsmanship to Michael Jordan. 1. “Iced” him out of his rookie allstar game. Jordan made the team, Isaiah acting like a child got everyone on their team, to not pass the ball to Jordan. Cmon now. 2. The bulls did lose twice to the pistons the years before, but Jordan showing good sportsmanship, shook their hands after each of the games even though him & Isaiah didn’t get along. The time that they lose the bulls, Isaiah leads his Pistons team straight to the locker room in a single file line without shaking anyone’s hand. CMON NOW 😂 childish and unsportsmanlike. So I agree with Jordan getting back at him for once & keeping him out of the allstar game
Great take by Matt Barnes. Please have more of him, and MUCH LESS of Kendrick Perkins!
Stop creating hatred towards MJ. Isaiah Thomas created his own grave by hurting so many players.Tell this Dominic guy that MJ was not selecting the team or players Magic Johnson has taken that responsibility on his role and Pippen and many other players they did not want IT on the team including his own head coach Chuck Daily he was coaching the team and even named Joe Dumars as the 3rd replacement on the team in case of injuries.This was a mistake by USA basketball and the selecting committee they picked a collegiate and left Isaiah out.Get it right Dominic
So we’re just going to skip over the part of the documentary with magic Johnson stated that he did not want Isaiah Thomas on the team. He also said that Larry Bird nor did Karl Malone wanted to play with Isaiah. We just going to gloss over that part right ESPN. It’s all on Jordan right.
Feelings Feelings Feelings, thats why yall havent won anything.
One day everybody is gonna talk about how NOBODY wanted him on that team lol
Casualties of war XD
@PARK Amen
Mj didnt say he dont want isiah he just said if isiah on the team he wont be there so its up to the committee to chose who they want to be on the team.
I dont understand why some are saying they hate how they were portrayed on the doc. Even MJ was portrayed in a bad light at some point. He was painted as a bully and has a gambling problem. It's a documentary. It's not a Disney movie.
agreed
People were going to have a problem with that doc no matter what you can't please everyone
There was an entire team that couldn’t stand Isiah not just MJ. Bird and Magic had issues with him as well
Well said by Matt Barnes
Do you want Mj or Isiah on that team?
Isaiah was hated by many people......
Here’s the deal. Plenty of other players on the dream team have openly admitted they did not want Isaiah on the team. It was not just MJ keeping Isaiah off the team. That’s a fact.
ESPN is wearing the last dance out
Facts it’s been 1 1/2 week now
Almost like there's nothing else to talk about huh
Matt does a great job! Love his podcasts too.
FACTS
Right what does rival mean? Maybe we should say it in a way the youngins would understand OPpz.
Matt Barnes is a great guy that keeps it real.
Matt Barnes always speaks the real.
Matt is right.
All I know is that dude on the left is a big time Kobe hater! So I always fast forward his part cause I don't care what he has to say.
What is with espn on Isiah bandwagon. This sad part of media they will use you for ratings 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
ESPN, plz get rid of Kendricks Perkins, he didnt win anything , his average was 3.5 ppg.. has no common sense.... fire KENDRICKS PERKINS...
Jalen: ID, Dominique: Superego, Matt Barnes: Ego. (and Greeny...Freud?)
With MJ mindset Kobe is still the most winning nba star of the 21st century. Nobody else won 5 titles yet.
I was gonna say Tim Duncan but he did win one in 1999.
Tim Duncan got 5
Robert horry won 7 lol
@@somedrunk5535 Lol, true. Big shot Bob! One of the best role players of all time.
@ MrGenexx
21st century= jan 1 2001- dec 31 2100.
Robert Horry has 5, kobe and Duncan have 4 in the 21st century.
Michael JORDAN 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Kobe BRYANT 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Almost an exact replica, so trying to be like **MIKE** is a bad idea,
Quote: He has more Rings than all of us PUT together, Michael JORDAN the G.O.A.T
MJ did NOT make the choice! ...he just let it be known that if Isiah was on team, he wouldn't be...its CRAZY how these analyst missing that point!
Matt Barnes is speaking the truth....and they keeping talking about Thomas being snubbed...but no one says anything about Dominique being snubbed...he was one of them players who was still holding it down...in the 80’s and into the 90’s...
ALOT of players didn’t want Isaiha on that team.
Magic had SERIOUS issues (even more than MJ at that time) with IT due to his reaction to AIDS.
Bird didn’t want IT on that team.
Pippen himself publicly said he didn’t want IT on that team.
etc.
Isiah is and was two-faced. Magic, Larry and Michael didn't trust him. Plus Stockton and Drexler were in their primes and both no-nonsense players. Easy decision, and I'm glad they left Isiah off.
Lol none of them get what Jalen is really saying! He is basically saying that despite finally beating the pistons in 1991, MJ doesn't feel like he settled the score....lol....Isiah is still rubbing to his face that the pistons beat the bulls A LOT MORE. And it's true and there's nothing Mj can do about it cuz Isiah retired soon after and the team dismantled.
For these guys, MJ, Kobe, magic, bird, Isiah...it's only about the number of WINS against each other. That's it!
It has not much to do with the handshake SMH
Barnes brings it as real as it gets Like it or not its about CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!
Jordan showed sportsmanship by shaking Isiah and the Pistons hands when he lost to them. But when it was Jordan's time after improving himself and being motivated by the Pistons to win 6 for Chicago and Isiah decides not to be a good sportsman, then that's where the problem arises. This is a prime example why having an ego creates problems. Isiah should have dropped it.
2011.. MJ said he wouldn’t play if Isiah was on the team... in 2011!! As in he wouldn’t have played if Isiah is on the team.. has nothing to do with MJ saying that in 1992 and kept Isiah off the team..
They are still debating this?????!!!! The main question was if isiah played MJ wasn’t gonna play in the dream team. from management standpoint are you gonna take isiah over Mj Com’on get over it!!!!
MJ didn't do it because Isiah was a "rival". So were everyone else on the team. So was Dennis Rodman who eventually played with MJ as well as other Pistons John Salley (who admitted MJ is a friend) and John Edwards (who regularly smoked cigars with MJ during their time together with the Bulls). He's also very friendly with Joe Dumars. And obviously enjoyed playing golf with Chuck Daly while playing for the Olympic team. These media types seem to want to push narratives instead of digging in further. MJ and Isiah was personal. It had nothing to do with MJ wanting to keep a "rival" off the team. And besides all that, MJ had already defeated Isiah's Pistons.
Thank you Jaden Rose.... these new cats don't understand Rivalries. Isiah is a great.
Wasn't Chuck Daly the head coach of the Dream Team? Wasn't he Zeke's coach? Obviously Daly had Zeke's back (to an extent), but for the betterment of Team USA; the chemistry of the team (on and off the court), I believe he signed off on the tough decision to leave him off. Daly agreed to these terms. I don't think you can let him off the hook. I wish Chuck was around to share his perspective, but if he (the Head Coach) wasn't willing to take a stand against the players who weren't eager to team up with Zeke, then why should anyone shift blame for this decision to one player? It doesn't add up. In my opinion.
Why don’t y’all replace all these nerd journalist who have never played in the nba.. and put mat barns in.. put ex players please. Espn would get WAY more viewers. Jalen and Mat barns are the only ones there who can REALLY talk basketball. They interacted with Kobe, shaq, etc
Let’s be honest. The powers that be was considering the team had several discussions before they approached the players. You don’t think the Jordan vs Thomas thing didn’t come up. Ok. Now, it was then discussed who would you rather have. The decision was made before they got to the players. So that they could tell Jordan he’s not on the team. He didn’t make the decision. He re-affirmed their thinking. Thomas had issues with Magic, Bird, & others.
What is being lost here was that the NBA was trying to expand its footprint overseas to be a global attraction. Of course they knew MJ wouldn’t play on the team if Zeke did , therefore they didn’t invite Zeke. The NBA wanted its biggest star player on the global stage and unfortunately at Zeke’s expense it was the right decision as we see the NBA popularity around the world now. Dirk and Pao Gasol both have said the impact of Jordan and Dream Team on them playing basketball.
Mike didn't say Zeke couldn't be on the Dream Team. Mike said IF Zeke is playing, he isn't, str8 marketing decision. Pay attention to the exact words.
I don't know how people miss the point about the Isiah thing. It wasn't only MJ, Karl Malone didn't like him either, and Charles Barkley didn't like him either. It all boils down to this: if you have to choose between Isiah Thomas (who was done) or MJ in his absolute prime, you go with MJ, plain and simple.
kobe competitive ends after the game mj's on and off the court he will take it personal.
Matt Barnes ESPN needs to hire you get rid of Kendrick Perkins you're the guy you talked with since you think before you open your mouth and your comments about MJ and Isaiah is on point thank you😇🤔👍
For a moment i though Pat Beverly looked like a decent man with a collared shirt on.
I get that we should celebrate a person's focus and drive to accomplish goals and achieve greatness. On the other hand, we should point out and discourage both Jordan and Kobe win at all cost mentality. I don't believe that the end justify the means. Everything comes full circle eventually. We are seeing that play in people's lives today.
People forget that Isiah Thomas was the one directing everyone to foul and injure opposing players. That's why MJ hated Isiah and had no problems with some of the others Pistons players.
Jordan didn’t didn’t kick Isiah out he just takes the Blame just bcus he spoke for the majority of the all stars players who also didn’t want isiah in the dreamteam And that’s the Actual Truth. They went to ask Jordan if he wanted isiah on the team since most of the other players said no, so Jordan replied by saying that he won’t join the team if isiah joins. since he was the most famous & da leader of the team he got the all the blame n dat made it seemed like it was only Jordan who kicked him out, but in fact it wasn’t only Jordan that didn’t want isiah to join. There’s a video on a WNBA player from Detroit who asked Jordan on why he did isiah dirty n left him off the team n Jordan said “You really want to know the truth” n said “Mostly Everyone else didn’t want to play n join our team n not just Me”. So y’all look it up facts
Technically Jordan didn't keep IT off the team. He simply stated he wouldn't play if Thomas was on the team. Management and the coach decided they preferred to have Mike and not Isaiah. Plus everyone hated Isaiah at the time and the bad boy pistons.
ESPN needs to have Barnes on for all NBA discussion, his no nonsense and player perspective are top notch, his show with Jackson is easily a top 5 sports show, none of the tmz recycling materials. ESPN needs to step it up
No....isiah was one of the main people who froze MJ in his first Allstar game. They said since Mike is just a rookie he shouldnt be in the Allstar game so they tried to keep MJ from getting the ball. I think thats where MJ got his hate from Isiah from. Can't believe they arent speaking on this.
Detroit Pistons trying every game to injure players, just to win and thats whats one of the reason to dont have Isiah Thomas on Dream Team. For bussiness perspective is not good to have a person who likes to fight with everybody in the court...Not only MJ, others players also
Watch, the next thing they're going to bring up is his gambling. The Last Dance shredded the debate between Jordan and James so now ESPN is trying to shred Jordans legacy. The biggest issue with the dream team is that Christian Laettner made it in over Shaq!
ALL THE SMOKE podcast is dope. Matt and Stak holding the fort down.
So I'm assuming since pippen and Barkley and Malone didn't want him on the team didn't matter. Only because MJ didn't want him he takes all the flack for Thomas not being on the Team
MJ never made the decision for everyone directly. He simply said he won't play if something I dislike will be playing. Pretty much every person on the Dream team has come out to say the same. No one has ever had a co-worker that they did not want to work with?
Think about it. Do you imagine Paul Pierce and Lebron James playing together on a national team? I don’t think it would happen either.
