Huge respect for PG! He's been on a lot of good teams and that Pacers team was incredibly fun to watch. Him admitting that he doesn't have to be the #1 guy is a very mature thing to admit that a lot of people at the same caliber would probably never say

TOMMY! Everytime you speak, which is very selectively, you deliver the perfect question! I'm just under halfway through, and that was a fantastic question about chemistry on playoff teams. Bravo

I know it's probably incredibly difficult to get people in the same room, HOWEVER.... Getting people all in the same room really does enhance the show. It changes the dynamic, makes it feel more personal and less of an interview.

Thank you for your decade + of dedication to the league PG13! Your impact on the game has been felt and helped define a generation of basketball play. Continue to write that legacy.

Absolutely awesome hearing from active players about their current season and even from their past seasons 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 awesome podcast JJ!

I actually forget that PG was elite all the way back in ‘13. He’s been honestly way better since his injury, so good that I forgot that he’s been dominant for so long

I can’t believe JJ shouted out ‘Thinking Basketball’. I love that channel and their basketball breakdowns

Didn’t know PG was such a thoughtful, humble dude. Don’t know if I woulda watched his podcast beforehand but I’m looking forward to it now. I hope it’s like All the Smoke where he doesn’t have ti be the interviewer all the time but will have open discussion with people that just have mutual interest in having a conversation about basketball and whatever his other personal interests are too. Very cool.

I love PG man he is a monster he gets to much hate he is one of the best everyone's standards are LeBron and Jordan missing out on all of the other great talent one love brodies

It's really great that you shouted out Thinking Basketball. I'm a fan of their channel and thoroughly enjoy their content. I was actually thinking what it would be like if you were invited as a guest on their podcast. That would be some incredibly high level basketball talk! Hope it happens🤞🏼

Thanks JJ for shouting out ThinkingBasketball, their analyses are awesome!

PG is so underrated! Thanks for having him on your show guys!

Was surprised to hear the shoutout to Ben Tayloy. Having followed his work for a few years was always surprised to see how little recognition he gets from the media so I'm happy to see his strides in this respect. And of course it's JJ the one shouting him, just another proof on how this man is bridging the old and "new" sports media. What you guys do is fundamental to the sportd growth so shoutout to you guys, keep rockin'

Been a life long clipper fan and pg is hands down one of my players in the league. I loved this interview.

GREAT CHAT WITH PG! Awesome to hear his voice on real stuff!

Not the first time Thinking Basketball has been referenced in some of my favorite podcast. Jason Timpf is one of my favorite analyst as well and he’s mentioned Thinking Basketball more than once. Love it.

I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast, as I do every single week. PG is just such a humble and down to earth guy,. Absolutely loved listening to his perspective; you guys do such a great job in getting people to be so transparent and candid when talking about their past. The only thing I wish you'd asked PG more about is Russell Westbrook, given his importance to PG's best season in OKC, how he left him to go to LA and then finally vouching for him to be signed by the Clippers. Nonetheless, immensely enjoyed this podcast. :)

one of my favorite players of all time PG is so tuff!! super excited for this

Respect for his truthfulness🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Mad respect for the shout out to Big Al Jefferson. Dude was an absolute monster. Little known fact but he avg 42 ppg 18rpg like 6apg and 7 or 8 bpg in high school. When he became a 25 and 10 guy in the league I was not surprised.

I liked PG before but man after hearing this...crazy respect. He's the real deal

It was great to listen Paul "You Know" George talk.

From the Palmdale area and it’s so cool to see such a successful player come from there!

One of my favourite players. Seriously so underrated

Man pg 13 is one of my faves next to Brandon Ingram and kawhi, thanks for getting him on the show JJ.

This is a great mentality from a pro athlete. I just became a fan. I want to apply this in my daily life. I might not have been blessed with godlike talent but this makes me wanna do better.

This may be the best episode of all time. Can’t wait for PG’s pod

I'm very impressed by his self-awareness and ability to set ego aside. That's so rare.

Glad to see everyone giving PG his flowers NOW. Still remember all of the hate he used to get when he was on OKC. I understand he didn’t take accountability on certain things during those playoff runs, but dude is a straight hooper.

Podcasts are great because they allow athletes to go at their pace while also not including the lame narratives reporters push. I’m glad athletes can find a way to speak on what they find is important about the game rather than answering stupid questions that cause them to shut down and seem annoyed.

PG13 lets go man, my fav player !!
