Jerry West Opens Up About NBA Legacy, Kobe Relationship, Difficult Childhood & More | EP 15

Best podcast in the business. No angles or agendas. Good job Paul George! You bring a breathe of fresh air in a very crowded space.

Bet all my fellow west Virginians are mad that Paul got Zeke from cabin creek wrong😂

Love his insight! Very fresh insight from an old school cat.

so much wisdom in one man

Jerry is one of the Nba players I will say, yes sir thank you sir , he is more then the Logo

where's the link to get the PP merchandise?????

Have nothing but love for Jerry West!!

Jerry didn't have it easy growing up... Thanks for inviting him and allowing him to share his story

…. Mr. West is in the Buildin’

Jerry is the grandpa you wish you had.

In terms of guards there's always outliers but average guard size have been growing past 76 years. With this logic, might not be your life time time but in someone's life time in the future the average must be bigger.

I believe Wemby will be the normal guard someday

Yeah, I don't care if Jerry doesn't like his portrayal in Winning Time. Both real Jerry West and HBO Jerry West is awesome.

God I could listen to Jerry West talk tactics all day! Half the shit he said I never knew like if you shoot with your left you don’t have to square up or pivot to stop a pass to the back door

Please bring Jerry back on!

Living Legend!

PG started his next career while still dominating his first. Dope interview! My pops took me to the forum in 71' JW was the first Super Star I ever saw he could do everything!

Zeke from the creek

the fact you got the literal nba logo himself on a podcast is Hof

Educational interview

Shoulda brought up the hbo show

Shooting over the corner of the backboard is one of the more enjoyable drills to do! Trains the aim and the arc!

Excellent interview. PG is really good at this. Asks good questions, and just as importantly,
is a great listener . Never interrupts his guests, even if they don’t really answer the question he asked.
Basically, he just let Jerry West talk about whatever he wanted to, knowing that whatever it was, it would be interesting to anyone watching.

I’m 80 years old, and was lucky to see West, Robertson, Baylor, Wilt, and Russell in their prime. West was way ahead of his time, far more athletic and versatile than the other 2 guards of his era. He played as much forward as he did guard at West Virginia, and like Oscar, was a hell
of a rebounder as a guard when he came into the league. He was also a terrific defender.
While listed as 6’3 or 6’4, he had the wingspan of a guy 6’7 and could really jump. It took him about 2 years to get his handle right, and once he did that, he was pretty much unstoppable . Combine that with superlative shooting and passing skills, and you’ve got one of the finest all around guards in NBA history. Forget the damn logo. When you’re talking about the top two guards to ever play, he’d rank in the top four or five. Personally, I’d take Jordan, Kobe and Wade as my top three, and West next. His game would easily translate to today , and if he wanted to, he could play the point better than any of the others. Great guy, totally humble, and a truly fabulous player!

Totally disagree with Mr West on the 3 point shot.

I have loved every episode I’ve seen. Great job guys! This one was killer!

Jerry hating on China

KOBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE💜💜💛💛💜💜💛💛💜💜💛💛💜💜💛💛

He looks great

The humility that Mr. West displays is much needed with this current generation. Just to think he’s “The Logo!”

He's in really good shape. Incredible

Jerry west is my 5th cousin

wow the 👥 of NBA! Respect

Man, this is some good stuff, right here

Rambling

The NBA is unwatchable at times because it turns into a half court three point contest.
