A sublethal one of the greatest Small Forwards who ever played the game will see what hes up to now and if he misses the game because when you place of the net beautifully you must miss it when you move on Dominic Wilkins on Dennis Miller plus one right after this. Hey folks welcome to Dennis Miller plus one this is a big thrill for me you know i was all over ball when i was a kid now granted i was in pittsburgh sad to follow the a. B. A. With doc but ill tell you somebody reminds me of the hockey former n. B. A. All star spent the majority of his her play in small forward in a big way for the Atlanta Hawks from 82 to 94 he is a 9 time n. B. A. All star the human eye like real lot of people remember the dunks but this entire game was pure hes also been doing a little acting lately too he recently had a cameo on the showtime series billions and if he was playing today thats what hed be make it billions because my man was unstoppable the great Dominic Williams nick what shake it. Where everythings good how you doing man new things well. Yes rethinks good my friend im gonna actually get used to this weirdness this i hope it doesnt last much longer but im willing to do my part i dont want to get anybody a trouble but ill be honest with you when i walk out the door and i dont think im about to croak i just want to freak people out who are worried about it you know. Right exactly you know the thing is you know you got to be as safe as possible but you got to live a little you got to get outside of the house you know get a little fresh air but you know this make sure you do you social distance even take care of the things you need to take your with your family but this will be a time that were living in right now and weve never seen anything like this and you know everybody wanted to see sports come back but right now in the gotta take every precaution that you can to make sure there were sick. You know what need when i figure out a social distancing i think far should i be away from this cat i think well pretend youre Carmelo Anthony playing defense and then i set up off that. Season i did season the mellow. The broad strand of lives. And shattered ever you come up in the early eightys to the hocks and i guess i remember tree rollins was there and the tree was not at the 7 and danny brown field where they had 2 spots covered and you were a perfect fit at the small forward for that right. You know this mom poor position back in those days was considered a darling position because so many great players i had no nights off i got dr j. One night they went to eat with stanley worthy cummings of why every single and another guy ended up never fear of anybody but one guy made me nervous and that was burned i became Dominick Wilkens with us and well talk to him about billions in a 2nd but i got to talk a little ball here you know don dominick i hear people talking about you and i always bring up the dunking because the dunking contest was so big that i remember that one year you absolutely torched it but i thought you played the beautiful game and all rounder what when you came out your skill set was pretty much completely formed in college right and you go out right after his senior year well in managing new little road work when youre a great athlete the 1st thing people associate you with is knocks and the thing that i tell people all the time its very difficult to score were 26000 points on dunks you know you have to be creative score i mean i had mid range doctor shoot at 3 if i needed it was something that i use that to as well as the dunking i use as a tool but i post up went to the frito im 18 and 10 times and i my game was all around but the thing that got glorified more than anything else was done yeah folks when you think about 26000 points in the n. B. A. Its like im not showing up for an 80 game season throwing up 25 a night you doing that for 13 years i want you to think about that you mix in the travel you mix in the kalar of the ball the caliber of the ball and dominate was playing like he said it was the league was beastly that its a hell of an accomplishment 26000. 00 meaning good for you yeah it was in those days when it was so physical it was so skill but the game was played at a very high pace and then you know it was a bump and grind lead you know nothing was easy so anything you got to you play that gets a guy when the other side a ball was just as good and coming at you same way. You know it makes me laugh dominic as i see guys getting. Called now for pulling the chair out on the gag where they back away in the low post. And then i go back and i watch footage from your. Unwatchable hoard of watch and. You know beer of watch kurt rambis through just flooded each other that it was rough back that way you know it also going about the rivalry stu as well you know a lot of stuff this court today would never definitely get cold in those days and i remember when i 1st came in the league i dont remember even students leaving fox no they would just call heart files and you shot 2 to fritos you got to take of course every now and then if it was excessive but man it was it was a mans league back then and when i came out of high school. We with voted not too long with the greatest High School Senior class of all time the consternation that year and not one guy went to pros and i school now when i have this i have is 30 and 16 coming out of high school and never thought about going to the pros while that somebody isnt it was a toss up that thats not loaded it was i mean you know when you when you graduated to that level you earned. Nick im always intrigued at the bonds that are formed in the bunker as they say at war time are d with young guys on a team thats voted the Best High School team ever do you see it i always think of you know like when i grew up in pittsburgh schenley i had an amazing team and i read that some of those guys stayed friends for like the stan touch with any of those cats. Yeah you know quite a few you know its some of us who really never talk much as players now that we retired weve become great friends ill give you a prime example home alone clouds rex and myself and become like brothers we talk on a regular basis and we love talking the game of basketball or in our live in labs a lot of families in the things that were doing now and we keep building relationships very close to us but as competitive as you would believe that was really ever talked common and i didnt talk to each other for 20 some years until we met up but also on cup week back and i cracked some joke and he said. I dont know you that funny and i said well we thought you was a jerk when we did i asked him what the net. Can about there and thats what kind of book ice with us and weve been so close ever since folks can you think of anything more frightening in the world the. Car on the lone villain the liking waiting for the dish to the oh it was unbelievable the way the mailman the liver yes he never missed you know used to play i remember that cattle used to play a do p. Was another friend a guy named George Mcginnis i think it played for the sixers up in the pros by man could fill the lane to if you remember who joey you talk about coal mine. He revolutionized the power for position because you never saw Power Forwards do what he did on the break you know you know getting up in the lanes and score over 361 week im just sayin im talking to a guy who can reflect on that youre a 26 maj and throw in another 10000 points on top i know thats grant us them up and you know heres a guy out of the Small College Louisiana Tech that slipped to the 13th pick and a drag and look what he became the 2nd time all time to score in history and what just an amazing player amazing clip a lot of people didnt like or you know what he didnt hear you know hes a man i saw him in the last dance thing and he was a bad and he was a going to give it up all that much you know its some point its just another guy pull an odd sneakers youll go so far as saying yeah my man was a gamer but im not going to sit here tuck rhapsodize about hell he was my idol or anything because you had team specked interest great as michael 2 and work there was a great Chicago Bulls team as well so you know you wouldnt just want to get Michael Jordan you going against the bulls who have a lot of good i would say great pieces to go along with michael you got scottie you had a heart grant you had bill quite right and all that rot and he had a tony kuko to it no one talks about how good he was and so they had a lot of great players on that team. Were talking to the great dominick welcomes nique as hes been known to his fans and friends of which there are many over the years when i watch jordan and that thing the guy was always thinking boy if my man didnt have something to actually get pissed that he would go seek it out man it was like he was he was contriving things and it said sometimes to get revved up when you took it out over an 82 game season powell how did you get yourself up every night to who was a just us or to call greatness or did you get pissed like him or what was your psychological play to get ready for campus a lot i really did yeah and i played the game with reckless abandon up late at one speed and that was all out and when michael and i played against one another you knew it was going to be epic battle you know i found out some recently day he and i against each other in our career we had was over 30 points against each other for a whole career you know and thats pretty mean i never knew then to someone brought it to my attention but we put together some great game thats a one situation i remember a game i scored 57 against a condo in atlanta we go back to chicago and maybe a couple weeks later and Michael Jordan he drops 60 tonight. Well he answered the call baby you discarded and then he discarded with the high trump 3 more he said he was yes a competitive own was possessed type of individual when he stepped on the floor it was like he was out to prove something every. Stock acting a little knee they will talk hoops in the 2nd segment but i got to ask you brother would you play in billions might that tell me about the park. Well i was playing a kind of a one a one game with one of the main actors there really great guy all without a 1000000000 a wonderful go back. Quite a few of those guys serve on our board with coach a city with dealing with the arches im in sensory needs so weve all become pretty close but you know ive been doing a little acting here and there and you know and billions men what a pleasure to be on the next show and also quite a kind of investor in a courtroom you know so it was it was it was rewarding you know im looking forward to do more than i can see i can see in your face of must of been fun for you some cats completely freeze up when its time to step out of what they do you know for a living hoops and for that act but it seems like when i see the look on your face you must have dug it oh and he did it because you know you got to give him i have a lot of respect you have because youve got to change who you are to be believable and let people appreciate your town and i think thats a remarkable trait to have when you can just turn it on and off like that. I have to ask your route quick before we went to the break the other day they had that the Golf Tournament with peyton i dont know if you watched it all but one player going to get on the course the other guy who was on the course announced and was a pro players name is Justin Thomas hes a pro golfer and. Charles barkley is the announcer and barkley sets are you know obviously partly a great player but hes a little more spelt way back when but hes talking about how tiger gets a birdies or i dont get excited when he gets a birdie hes im a basketball player you think i get excited when somebody dunks i dont get excited when somebody dunks a new kid on the court nique says early on the course with the players says you know what would surprise me you know it would startle me if youre good dunk anymore. Good come back good bye to us and theyre all said listen man i know youre not an announcer you cant kill anybody fat these days youre better why is that really baby left barclays but youve also got a real whos not the only one can see whatever he wants you to wake. Up but cant shut him down the key face to the right it doesnt rhyme or really great yeah were going to war with the great Dominic Wilkins right after this on Dennis Miller plus one. You cannot be both with the yeah you know what. I am. Probably the greatest success of the Civil Rights Movement which was respect for Human Dignity all lives matter under the rule of law that was then but today the same concept has been turned on its head we are told to change the need or face consequences the social sheeny is being turned into a ruling ideology. Of the worse a clip of see all the more used to stop the good but the my its always at the core it was a. Moment of the late. Not so you know the need for immediate whats happening today they can put us in the mood at that point to the. Smithsonian National Capital that i thought i. Knew they had that. Yes. Yes. Folks welcome back to Dennis Miller plus one were talking to the great dominick welcomes one of the greatest basketball players who ever laced up the shoes nick you were talking about your family out back doing a little barbecue today which puts a smile on my face tell me about your family tell me but youve got 5 kids right and tell me why have their sights taught us 5 daughters and 2. Yeah and then ultimately very quickly im very close to my kids you know you dont always have a special place in your i mean you know i spent a lot of time with my dad actually i had one of my daughters over here yesterday with 2 of my grandsons and i just had had a wonderful time a very close to my grandkids i thought was a pleasure when they come over but my youngest son. Jacob is about 61 and hes 13 and he is a Health Basketball player haeckel but then my oldest son is 23 plays over and. I want to say portugal hes already a plane right now hes 23 and. You know we talk a lot of bass one is how much cernan i and we go out and shoot on the court quite a bit you know i try to give him some knowledge in how to put on how to play the game so but he is thats he got me a special. Now and when we were talking about billions before the break nate you were talking about how theyre now sitting on the board of an organization i think that you do special or her lot has and you said sensory awareness you know i believe can you not me since we need to know for example we have quiet places and since we romes and over the command just in him being over 20 some of arenas where if you have someone with since we need they can go into the sensory rooms and kind of bounce themselves out quiet down in you know interactive material that they use in the sense that we wrote and we also have qualified people in there to help those people with since we knew and you know deal with that now and they can basically come back into an arena or whatever our century rooms are and more balanced out they come out there relax and they can join society so theres autism is new due to my heart you know i have a special needs kid so i understand what people go to parents go to with kids who have and those type of problems. Were talking to the great dominic loken zits sounds like youve done a lot of beautiful film philip philanthropic stuff and also workin like you said with the Autism Community afterwards im trying to think when you go from being one of the one of the best on the planet at what should do and then its over did you have a jab a segue period out of it where your head was a little weird or he wasnt for you breaking away you know what kind of prepared myself for life at the basketball i knew once im tired that i didnt go right into the front office because right when i got traded from atlanta and i went to l. A. Clippers the g m a times that no matter what happened at the end you career youre always going to have a position to demand hawks and ive been here ever since i retired and to the hawks. Arent like part of my life and me forever i mean i love the city i love the franchise and ownership is wonderful and on the wrestling it is the only group but the heart you know this is who i am and i felt like ive never played anywhere else but here even though i was traded im gaps who was the g. M. There was a cast and it was in stand you know sleeper castings didnt show up in right now from a connector e book. And we didnt leave the eastern conference when he made it through. You know nature business next thing you know youre at bell a with Donald Sterling guy gets right was he was the owner of the clippers at that was an adventure that when events are. Wow i could tell you stories about the war going on it was i know that he was a flake what can i do. He was a flaky cat and once the lakers had l. A. Covered he was just sort of grown the worth of the franchise so he could dump it eventually i think for a lot of money you know you know i was sort of the plate was really cool guy that let ron harper and mark jackson and people like that so i didnt enjoy that part of it but the way it was run the team was doing was not good you would have dug the harp in the end the last dance think as everybody jack and everybodys talkin and hype never says a word hes off in the background till they get on the plane and then hes playing cards like this approach. But they run is of funny funny guy and again the guy has no filter that says what ever you well this. I dont know are a long long time in and great friend and how a competitor yeah you know what nico i often think about guys when they leave the show theres theres the game they mess theres the fame they mess but i cant imagine how much you guys must a left over a 1520 year period with each other you must tough out you know other than new game the thing that i missed the most is the locker room the locker room and beyond to show us the laughter we had in the locker you know i missed it today is that you know i talked to one of my closest friends are like a little brother to me a spot where just yesterday and you know man we were talking about all the fun we used to have in the locker room and on the road and come back to him all of us 100 get that we went to the movies together we ate together it was a family on the road for 80 to 82 games in i do still missed it. I remember that the scud won the dunn tough one youre dead meat daughter and i remember him ballston it going out but 360 it was crazy he beat me and done kind. Of. Yeah i think he felt some back he didnt tell me about some of the things he did but it was amazing and it done contests he really was it was funny that the hocks had both of them because before spot i always such Charlie Crists was spot right same sort of but i remember Charlie Crist being tiny to play with 2 of the shooters guys who have these games but with Charlie Crists you know you know ben we dont know this man and we love the play with him do you ever see that picture by the way of Muggsy Bogues in the new ball together being oh yeah oh yeah he really didnt. Know but you. Know me too far you know incident in 7th character yeah he was a character as well and no god bless him don now but man he he was one of the funny guys that met haneef i know that you know people can help out with the odds as well but your site where they can go and learn more about all the charitable work youre doing well actually you go coach a city website and you see everything that im doing everything is posted on their website and it will give you a detail look at what we go we also have a dominant project where we talk about what it takes to be dominant in your career in your life and what help get got you to the point of success so all of these things you can see on culture citys website beautiful hey listen when we said you were coming on with the social media lit up weve got a lot of questions and i was wondering if you might take a few from the fans show heres one that refers to something we were just talking about to mohalla on Facebook Says who are through your funniest teammates we can put harp in there i guess who else cracked up. Well harper definitely one of them john apple it with me here in atlanta and im probably would say. Probably true rollins that up later when it went to read funny guys man they kept it loose all the time then they kept you in stitches michabou they say they will be kept you loose before you play the game so you want to play the game and you read go ready to go we got sean choi on facebook and i think i know the answer to this because you just talk about playing in the elevated air with jordan but who would who is your favorite opponent to play against if you in georgia were thrown down thirtys against each other over your entire career i would imagine hes one of them or you who think the top 2 is the question but the guy wesley is kind of the granddaddy of them saw is dr j. Thats the guy and the plan to give him a play guess im a long time. But man you talk of legends of legends to play against at the same position i was one yeah i heard a quote from jay once when i was early in the a. B. A. They used play in what is a possibly played with somebody called the virginia squires and they said what motivates you julius and he said i never want to appear small on the court or off the court and i think that gave me goosebumps you happy joyous at a nice way of out of it he was he was he was a rock star but one of the nicest human beings you have me if you didnt know he played basketball you would think he was just some college but there were one of these guys that you were trying to you know invent a new light book julias was a smart guy he was a quiet guy very laid back he was the doctor man he will live forever you know when i think about my back covered out of just tom up in it it is unbelievable what julius had. Well you know i grew up want to be just like doc i saw dark my whole young life and so come on in high School Everybody wanted to be like the doctor because he was a household name yeah you really life can really take in odd places i remember when i was young it was the not there for me and i loved davids of the Skywalker David thompson was an unbelievable player a member once against the university of pittsburgh an n. C. A. A. Tournament kicked tom burleson in the shoulder barrel since like 72 skywalker could fly and then life takes in divergent ways man you get attend to your business you know where you are you do you bring up names like David Thompson theres so many people who have forgotten about that name he was i dont know if it was in a 64 guy jump the way he jumped up seen him since i was in high school is another incredible incredible talent in a player yeah beautiful player man and well like i said to make it through all that and folks theres a 1000000000 ways you can go off the path on your way to 26000 points but you can see my man got it into the bar looks like a happy man now always did it stolidly always did it with class its been a pleasure to meet unique like well as me look forward to doing a game. At the great dominick well can see this is Dennis Miller plus one thank you brother. Pinpoint is now made it to big gates of the central bank in the chaos just like of course apocalypse now was a remake of part of darkness and it really reflects the chaos and insanity of the vietnam war americas heart of darkness americas plunge into the imperialist insanity by spending billions on to conquer really nothing vital interest but spending billions and trillions to get there were surveillance a repeat of the insanity but on a much more epic scale. They can come and blow our brains out at any given time and we cant really do anything actually america is the only country in the world where you can kill people. War and legally get away with. All the fire crawls stillbirth all the trouble heres the point its hollow following the k. K. K. Exists because america wants it to exist the of the biggest terrorist group to ever operate in this country and theyre dead to me theyre worse also than the people who destroyed the World Trade Centers of the scroll why. Hello and welcome to crossfire all things are considered im Peter Lavelle probably the greatest success of the Civil Rights Movement was respect for Human Dignity all lives matter under the rule of law that was then but today the same concept has been turned on its head we were told to take a knee or face consequences social shany is being turned into a ruling ideology
