When You Talk Trash And It Actually Works

So I’ve actually had this video finished for almost a week now but I wanted to pay my respects to the great Kobe Bryant before uploading this one. So for the first time since Trap Sax was in full effect, we got back to back uploads. Enjoy brothers! And stick around until the end to hear possibly the most disrespectful Michael Jordan story of all time....it gets wild.

“stop it, get some help“ always gets me 🤣😉🤣

The thing that made Kobe so inspirational was that he was never as strong or as fast as Jordan, didn’t have Jordan’s vertical, or his Kawhi-like hands, but through sheer force of will and unrivaled discipline, still became the closest thing to Jordan we’ve seen yet. He became great, not because of his physical talents, but because he was simply willing to work harder than anybody else.

"Joel Embiid scored 31 points.."
Oh ok for sure. still a good ga-
"IN THE FIRST HALF."
aaaye you got me. lol

Reggie Theus: No rookie can take my spot
Jordan: *and i took that personally*

“BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED”
-Gilbert Arenas
Still Lost the game by a blow-out 😂 Gilbert, win the Game bro. Still respect bro ✊

As they say, good offense beats good defense. When Arenas was amazing almost no one could stop him. So underrated

Hello Jxmy, I'm a volleyball enthusiast but I have to admit your story telling is as informative, humorous and entertaining I just have to keep watching your videos. You are really good. Thank you!

2 things:
1. Kobe dropped 39 on Arenas the night he predicted he'd score 35. Just throwing that out there.
2. Way to break my heart by teasing me with 5 seconds of that sweet jazzy sax again.

Bruh I lost it at "dude really talked trash, got lit up for 5 straight seasons, got 40 pieced in his own farewell tour, then dipped" lmao what a way to go out 😂

This video took me back to a wrestling camp when I was in highschool. I was going into my senior, coming off my first state championship and I was extremely cocky. My team went to a wrestling camp in Iowa with a bunch of other teams and I was destroying everyone there. One day some guy came in and was wrestling with one of the other teams and I could tell he was good but I knew I was fucking awesome, we were about the same size, so I figured I'd call him out and challenge him to a match. Of course I was talking shit to my team about home I'm going to destroy him and he of course hears it because I was talking loud on purpose. The match starts and holy fucking shit, this dude just starts beating my ass, he didn't even stop after the match of was over, this dude just kept savagely beating my ass for like 30 minutes, by the end, the only thing more destroyed than my body was my ego. I came to find out that that guy was an alumni from that school who had just finished college and was a 2 time division 2 all American. It was the ultimate case of talking shit to the wrong guy

Love your content man🙌🏿. Narration is top notch. You can listen without looking and not miss a thing. Great command of words keep it up.

*Jxmy doesn’t put a chart in the video*
Wait that’s illegal

That seriously is one of the best ad breaks I have ever seen. Well played sir.

"Defensively, he doesn't play defense" Lakers fans can agree LMAO

i'm 15 and a couple years ago i was playing in my league and this kid was guarding me, i told him, "see that kid to my right? i'm going to pass to him and then drive down th lane for a lay-up, and you can't stop me". i did exactly that.

8:15 blake just casually dropping 50

Mj was the absolutely undeniably definitely most deadly well rounded player..There'll never be another.

Reggie Theus: No one can be a rookie and score on me like that
MJ: I'm about to end this man's whole career, LITERALLY.

Bro I wished you teached my History in sports course in College . I would never miss lecture . Your knowledge and analyze is so spot on and amazing .
Love your basketball vidz man 🔥💯

I was a very mediocre player at best but I sure did enjoy it when the trash talkers who couldn’t back it up embarrassed themselves. One guy said he was going to have his dad film the playoff game against us so he’d have it on film forever. It was the only game where I ever really trash talked. I stole the ball from his sloppy crossover attempting self a few times and would ask him “Hey did your dad get a good shot of that? Make sure he doesn’t miss anything.” After we won I asked him “so when do I get my copy of the tape?” I never did see that game video of his but at least I have the highlight reel in my head.

Man I love your videos so much. I watch them and then watch again and again. They are my favorite NBA videos along with SB Nation. Congrats for being that good.

I just found your channel and its by far the best I've come across in a long time. I'm from Argentina so obviously, I have a request about the Spurs. Can you make a video on the 2014 Spurs team? It was actually the best basketball I've seen in my life, just beautiful to watch a team play like that. Like when Guardiola was the coach of Barcelona in soccer.

Jxmy your vids are too good and i appreciate the effort you put to consistently put out great content

Fast forward and Drummond is literally the guy who starts when Embiid needs a breather...that's insane but as a Sixers fan I'm happy to have him when the real big guy needs a night off

Gotta love my boy Jxmy... even the commercials are on point

I swear i can go back and watch your whole catalog you’ve always been the most consistent basketball Clip-Sharer crazy details crazy interesting content and never too cocky keep stomping bro ‼️

I don't have a basketball moment like this but I have a few in hockey. Best was when I was trash talked by an opponent's goalies dad. All I responded with was "I will make your son cry as he leaves the ice when he's pulled". I scored 4 goals had 3 assists. Just repeated everything his dad said to his son as I demolished them. He got pulled and looked like he was about to cry 😂 I purposely didn't score on the next goalie also just to rub it in a bit as we won by a lot anyway.

Me: “Jxmy has BACK-TO-BACKS?”
Jxmy: “Number one: it’s a legend we’re talking about here. Number two: You know I got a chart for that.”

Damn I enjoy your content! I know it's almost 2 years since you posted this video but I found you maybe 6 months ago. So I'm happy I have a backlog of content to watch. Keep it coming Jimmy.

Just goes to show how good of a scorer Gilbert was

at my brothers game the score was 51-52 for my brothers team.the crowd with ten secs left and the counted down from 5 and the kid chucked up a terrible shot with 5 secs left. The refs actually backed this kid and called a tech ON THE CROWD. then after doing that instead of just giving them free throws and the ball they gave them 2 AUTOMATIC POINTS AND THE BALL so they had to foul and ended up losing because of the crowd.

Haha the “stop it, get some help” edit got me 😂🤙

That's awesome! You told their stories extremely well!

Once told a guy he couldn’t guard me.
It was true because I didn’t leave the bench

Loved the video. The psychology behind sports is often overlooked. And Jordan was a killer...

The one time I’ve talked trash on the court was to a teammate, and it payed off. In my first season on a team, I was the shortest by a pretty good margin. One of our big men said that they didn’t need me and would be fine without me. I couldn’t think of a comeback so all I said was “ok yeah sure.” One of our games I was feeling really good, and I was getting good minutes, so I told him that I would lead the team in steals, assists, and least turnovers, and he just laughed. He got 17 points on 20 shots, 4 blocks, 2 assists, 4 turnovers, and no steals. I got 3 points on 2 shots, 0 blocks, 11 assists, no turnovers, and 19 steals. I got Defensive player of the game at 4’ 8.

Michael Jordan took it personally 😂

All these players are super talented. When they have a good night they can be unstopable. The difference is that the great ones have good games all the time. It is a mentallity thing too , not only raw talent.

Once, we had a school basketball championship game. My team was down 29-37 with time running out. I only had 7 points, while some kid named Trent on the other team had 13. Since I said that I was better than him before the game, he came up to me at that moment and said “Where you at?” This lit a fire under me, and our team went on a 12-2 run, with me scoring ten of those points, Trent not being the one to score the only two points of that stretch for them, and him going 0-6 during that stretch. I finished the game with 17 points while he had 13. As the final buzzer rang, I came up to him and said “Where you at?” He proceeded to punch me.

Jxmy with two uploads in back to back days?
Making my day.

We were getting killed in the half of our basketball game. I told my team mates we are going to catch up and win the game. We did just that. I could not believe it. Keep up the good work, brother.

Great vid. Fun to hear an MJ trash talk story from so early on in his career.

Last minutes of a game that was tied, I was matched up with the other team's best player. They gave him the ball. He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back and said, "lull me to sleep the hesitation right hand? You'd better pass the ball." He stopped smiling and passed to the next wing. I had watched him during the game and figured out his tendencies. They ended up with a bad shot, and I hit the go ahead for the win.

I dont even play basketball but man... I m hooked to this channel. Hands down the best channel out there on Basketball. Best wishes Jimmy from India

Thank you Jimmmy, I did enjoy, I watch your older videos once or twice a year! They are great.

feels like just yesterday kobe was jumping over cars and pools full of snakes 😢

Rest In Peace Kobe "The Black Mamba" Bryant And All Of The Other People On That Crash. Too Young. Your A Legend Kobe, #MambaMindset. None Of You Guys Will Ever Be Forgotten.

If you want to make the hot hand on the other team lose the fire, tell them that their elbow sticks out when they should and tell them how to change it. If you can make it seem like you wanna help them in a good way which it isn't, this trick will work about 98% of the time

I was in 8th playing King of the court with my friends and it always got really competitive, I was getting torched the whole day but started making a comeback. It was game-point and I hit a combo and I dropped him, stared him down and said "take notes" and wet the shot to win the game. remember that whole day like it just happened

People forget how tough pre-injury Gilbert Arenas was...25ppg, 29ppg and 28ppg in '05, '06 and '07.

Gilbert arena would’ve been really nasty but the situation with him and teammates really ended it

The transition into the sponsor 😂😂

Kobe was an unbelievable player during his career

Well you asked for a story, so here. I'm about 5' 11", and was going up against this dude who is like 6' 1" or 6' 2". I'm not really used to playing center but our big man was sick on game day, so I got to guard the center. He is considerably heavier than me, rebounds really well, and has a reliable turnaround jumper from the low or mid post. So anyway, we start the game and we're boxing each other out for boards, and he throws an elbow into my ribs hard. I give him one right back and he starts complaining right away to the ref. It went on for a bit and I'm making little comments to get in his head. So finally I decided I'm just going all out. I blocked his next 5 or 6 shots, and was flexing on him every time. Then I came downcourt, faked my perimeter defender into the air, and drove downhill. The center was waiting for me, I jumped into him, and after we collided I hit a twisting reverse layup. Everyone on the bench started going nuts, and it we ended up winning the game

Not in basketball but there was this kid that I would always wrestle and we had been going back and forth for a couple of years. He came up to me at a tournament and started talking sh!t. I told him “First period pin with a cross face” and thank god I managed it

Me and my friends had a 1v1 tournament to decide who the best baller was. My friend was talking SOOO much trash, was giving ME the ball when I said I fouled HIM cause he was like, "You need the advantage." It started off badly for me as well, we played to 7, and he had 5 on 3, but when he scored his 5th point and asked me, "Do you want 2 free points?" Something just went off inside my head. I proceeded to drop 4 layups on him after absolutely impeccable drives, killing him 7-5.

14:07 comedy gold 😆 "Dude got 40 pieced in his own farewell tour..." LMAO

RIP BLACK MAMBA
I will always yell “KOBE” after throwing up a shot. The legend WILL live on.

I asked who the first cap had chosen before I had made the shot for second cap. I kept talking to first cap for a few seconds about if he wanted first pick or ball. I looked up and drained the shot after the convo was over. We won that game too

I'm obese and not very fast, so in pickup when I got the ball at the 3 point line, the guy sagged off. I said "you just gonna let me shoot? okay" and drained a 3. Then drained 3 more from the exact same spot on the next 3 possessions. I also had a couple great blocks that game, and one of the younger guys started calling me "kareem." IDK about all that, but it still felt great.

I once scored 5 touchdowns in a game. The game was not over. I had to leave though. The opposing team asked me where I was going. I said I just scored 5 touchdowns my work is done ! 😂

One of the funniest videos you've posted bro! Lol keep doing your thing! Super good plug too! Bout to check out those earbuds just bc the ad was so smooth haha
Best clip
MJ: "Stop it, get some help" hahaha

happens all the time. I'm usually the one doing the talking so I can relate to the story...it's crazy though because i can enver remember the outcome whether I was able to back it up or if I lost because by the time it comes down to actually playing my alarm goes off and then I have to get up to start my day..

14:43
So, picture this. I'm wheelchair-bound, but I can still use my arms; it's just my legs that don't work. In eighth grade PE, we were playing basketball. Our class got split up into like 6 or 8 teams of 5 people each and we played a tournament each day for the next two weeks. One of the games, we were playing against this kid who bugged the crap out of me. He would tease me and just say stupid shit to just about anyone.
He was a pretty short kid and I have long arms so I figured I could guard him. I was on him the whole game. I also kept track of the stats because A) I'm a nerd, and B) it was the first time I had ever stood up (metaphorically) to an aggressor.
His final stat line: 0 PTS, 1 AST, 6 TO
My final stat line: 2 PTS, 5 AST, 6 STL
It was just a dumb game that wasn't for any highschool team or anything, but it was great.

I was on the YMCA team actually around the time of this video being released and was in practice. I was fed up. I wasn't the slowest, had the best shooting and passing ability, knew when to pass the ball but played PF. All I did was literally stood on the left side of the rim in the low post like boxing out for a rebound even on defense. Our SG wanted to play a game because he was feeling like he deserved to be that Gassed up. Talking trash. He was privileged on the team. I told him to get ready. He asked me what we're playing to. I told him until u take the L. I had 16 he had 2. Kept playing till I had 27 he had 6. Asked him u wanna take the L. He agreed. Told him to go think about what he had done

I’m only 5”3 and 18 but when I was in school like 14-16 a lot of the girls on the basketball court were all around 5”7-6”0 and I was just 5”0. I remember when the game started I was in the middle and my opponent laughed and said “too easy mate”. I jumped higher than a Maasai person and grabbed that ball and chucked it across the court and my teammate scored. 😂😂🤷🏿‍♀️
Hashtag, revenge. I made sure I marked her too. I blocked her shots too. I went full on psycho and my team told me to calm down. It was hilarious but great cos we won 32-26 😏👍🏿🤓

"When he said I couldn't replace him cause I'm a rookie, I took it personally" - MJ

I remember being a kid and seeing this man have guns in the locker room 😂

I remember that I told a trash-talking kid that I will drop 30+ points in the next quarter, and I did😂

First game of my freshman year of high school basketball and this kid i went to middle school with was on the other team. Now i wasnt a scorer, i just passed the ball on offense. but i was a great defender. so i told my friend ( best kid on his team ) that he wouldnt get more than 5 points that game during warmups. he made 2 freethrows and thats it. didnt talk to me for a month

Arenas in that rematch: 9/29 (FG), 3/15 (3PT), 16/17 (FT), *36.2 (eFG%)*, 50.7% (TS%).
Also 4 AST to 3 TO.
And they loss by 16.
Nah. I disagree, Kobe shut him down by my standards. He tried way too hard to win that bet.

You failed to mention Gilbert Arenas shot the ball 29 times and only made 9, thats like 33 percent shooting from the field, and they lost by double digits. Arenas shot his team out of the game 😆

“Stop it, get some help.” KILLED ME. Great video bro!

one time in one of my high school football games, a guy on the other teams offensive line was trying to trash talk me before our homecoming matchup (i played defensive line and decided that i was going to follow this kid all game whether my blitzes required me to or not) anyways, long story short, i made a tackle on their teams best halfback who was a league all star and then trash talked (like i should) then his buddy, the guy who trash talked me says this “im gonna get your ass next play” to which i responded with “we’ll see little guy” the man is 6’5 280 and waaaaaay bigger than me who is 5’10 and 185, long story short he tried to dive at my knees, i jumped CLEAN OVER HIM and sacked their all star quarter back for a loss of 7 yards. Their coach subbed off the guy i jumped over and he didnt step foot on the field again until the game was over. Nobody, and i repeat nobody, will ever beat me at trash talking and backing it up in a football game. Nobody, EVER.

Lmao nah MJ was different. He really got a man to retire 😂😭

Gilbert Arenas might just be one of the more overlooked players in NBA history.
GA doing this doesn’t surprise me at all. Even tho Kobe was an absolute monster.
GA was also a beast. Stupid decisions tarnished his reputation as a good basketball player. It shouldn’t.
Kobe, BD and GA were my 3 favorite players to watch back in the day.

And now, Joel and Andre are teammates. Damn, time flies.

“His name was Michael Jordan, had some cool shoes, was teammates with Bugs Bunny, pretty solid player” 😂😂

Might not have happened on the court but still a story about trash talk:
When I was in school, I was the districts top sprinter, and for the first two years of my time in school I won the 200M chip. In my third year, I was told by two competitors from opposing schools I was coming 5th because I was white and that it was a black person's race. I came first and one of those guys came 5th while the other pulled up and didn't finish the race. I then went on to win the next two years as well and finished my time in school with a record of 100% 200M wins and 11 golds and 2 bronze medals for relay.
Sometimes it's the quiet people you should be afraid of, cause they know their strengths

Im a freshman basketball player starting on high school varsity. Some guys were talking smack to me in the locker room. I told them the next time we five v five in practice I was dropping 50, they laughed at me for a while. Then the next day I dropped 57 and won by at least thirty. Good times.

5:15 was killing me. i couldnt breathe.

Just when I thought Jxmy couldn't possibly make even more quality content....... the quality of content got even better

MJ almost has a 4 point 5x5 at 23..... Thats insane

12:28 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 "Stop it, get some help" 😁😁😁
Made my day man!

I was playing some pickup at my college gym one time and I was playing with those guys that all know each other so they really only moved to ball to one another. The guy I was guarding wasn't really getting the ball either so I was getting pretty frustrated because I didn't show up to do cardio. I was moving off ball and hauling ass in the fastbreak and never touched the rock. A guy gets a rebound over me and one of these punks tells me I gotta jump higher. I told him if I touch the rock it's over. I stand at the top of the 3 point line and just stare at the guy who told me to jump. He decides to finally pass it. Next two possessions I chuck up the ugliest, most contested 3 pointers you've ever seen and bank them both in, game over. I didn't say a word and just walked off the find a better court to play on.

Mine is just started the last game at the park to 21 ones and twos, I said " I gotta take a shit so my bad if I end it quick" went 9/10 from outside and had a layup from my rebound 😂 homie made a layup also

At least Kobe always had the balls and wanted to take that challenge 💯

I was playing ball with my cousins one day and said, I'll give you some hope.
They were winning 20-14(first to 21) and I said again, "I just gave you some hope" and scored 7 straight points.

Love these vids so much, so complete and relenting

8:15 Blake's 50pts randomly just chilling there

This is why I think true NBA fans feel for Gilbert Arenas. What he did to get kicked out of the league was really stupid... and ruined what was a hall of fame career. He was like Allen Iverson levels offensively, Kobe Bryant levels, like he was unstoppable. If it wasn't against Kobe he prolly woulda got 74 instead of 37 lol.

Im not a high score like 6-7 points a game but I play great defense, but this man had the nerve to say I could gaurd him, next time our teams played I droped 15 points, 25 rebounds, 8 blocks and 10 assists on the man, while holding him to 8 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds

“Stop it, get some help”😂😂😂

I'm not playing for a team however I play a lot of basketball at school and I am considered the best defender of the entire school. I haven't really braged about it till this very moment. When the new school year started there was this kid 1,91cm PG that litterally destroyed us (I wasn't playing at that time) and talked so much trash for my best friend I couldn't stand it anymore. After a match I told him he won't score a single point next match. I'm 1,70cm and actually blocked his shots 11 times had like 20 steals and scored an amazing 23pts. He scored 1 point from a foul that I did while blocking. That's my story I love to hear feedback and please don't trash talk kids!

@ 1:30 ... some call it a monster block... some call it a brutal foul.... man, Kobe chopped this dudes hands off

I told someone they wouldn't get a bucket all game. Then he sprained his ankle on tip off and felt like it was because of my juju . Next time we played them he dropped 45 on me and I was genuinely happy for him even after we lost by 3.

You didn't show Kenny's whole story b/c MJ was actually upset that he was two points shy of 45, so he told them that he was gonna keep his word in Chicago.

I once told a guy what move i was gonna do, did the move and scored, it was a pretty crazy move that ended in a DEEP step back 3, after i mad the shot i said”told you so”. He proceeded to drop kick the basketball, and leave the court.😂

Rest In Peace Kobe 😔🙏🏼
