This segment was deep. I was a fan of Arenas' on the court, but hearing him open up like this and even talk about how his son didn't even know he was once an NBA star was something I didn't expect, but it makes me like this show that much more. Keep it up!
He was throwing because of anxiety and depression reasons. I had the same thing happen to me and I didn’t understand what was happening to me at first I thought I was sick
John Wall was one of the most underrated players
Going from feeling unwanted to needed will drag almost any man out of depression....men need purpose
You're nailing it, keep the great work!
Wizards did him and John dirty in the end . Smh , best players we’ve seen in a long time.
A humble man can break down a brick wall...praise God!!
The media back then made it seem like gil was a danger to the nba.....it was fucked up
Watched this segment in real time. It was awesome for him to share
Man Wall better then PJ Tucker, Crowder, Robert Covington, Pat Beverly etc but yet they ain't got him on a team smh. Story is deep, this what I wanna hear more of. Respect for this one. John Wall underrated like a mf
Respect Gil for his transparency here and for growing in that moment and sharing that with us.
John was a real one. A good man.
I was never mad at Gill for that situation.
Thank you john wall even though something so simple as asking gil for help brought his love for the game back in the end and it helped him get out of the dark place he was in 🙏🏾..
This is why we love your podcast… it’s raw authentic and deep sometimes… please stop diverting from what makes your podcast the best.. Basically stop acting like Espn
Get John on the pod!!
Very good John Wall and thanks Agent 0 for sharing this ❤
You can't help but respect Gil. He's had his issues, but I like how he swallowed his pride to help John Wall.
Y'all have to listen to the whole conversation. It'll probably help save somebody.
🔥🔥🔥✊🏾✊🏾. Amazing commentary
