The Baltimore accent lol.
Name all the elite Centers post Wilt & Bill Russell, Hakeem has made a fool out them from Kareem, Shaq, Ewing & David Robinson. All of them.
Olajuwon the only Superstar to win a ring without an HOF or an Allstar & in his 2nd run won it as a 6th seed ( the lowest ever ) Put some respect on his name Jokic ain’t even close.
Why are you so fixated on Tatum man?
Love seeing Dray interview guys who deserve and never get it!!! This will lead to a head coaching job for Sam!!! Great Pod bro
Love the interview. Sam I am much respect.🫡
Jesus Colin’s face

And yall scared I can tell, cause imma get Bucks like Milwaukee, cause like Sam I can sell (Cassell) ……# Jada kiss
Should be the coach of the lakers
Thankfully klay didn't go the bum ass wizards
Another washed up has been from 90's overrating his teammate. By the way Hakeem's favorite player today is Jokic. Jokic would have lots of success against Hakeem. Jokic is the very crafty player who can score the ball in every way and he's also physically bigger than Olajuwon, he could back him down. Also saying that Jokic is not on his level is the ridiculous point. Jokic have won the championship with the less help than Olajuwon had. Jokic is making everybody better player on his team. Ex and current black NBA players can't fathom that European white player is dominating game in an unprecedented level. Just pure jealousy sprinkled with a bit of prejudice and racism.
we watched booker lead phoenix to over 60 wins and not win the mvp, so it's not like tatum's the only guy even in recent years to not win an mvp despite winning games. fact of the matter is there's a level of player that's considered for mvp and tatum just ain't as individually dominant as those guys
sam really has that baltimore accent
