EP 31 // MITCH RICHMOND ON RUN TMC’S BREAKUP, PLAYING JORDAN & HOW HE REALLY FEELS ABOUT HIS RING

Hall of Fame shooting guard Mitch Richmond has many accomplishments — 1989 NBA Rookie of the Year, six All-Star teams, five All-NBA teams, and a ring with the 2001–2002 Shaq-Kobe Lakers — but he is best remembered as one-third of “Run TMC,” Golden State’s short-lived but highly influential fast-paced offense with Chris Mullin and Tim Hardaway. On this episode of “Getcha Popcorn Ready,” Mitch joins T.O. and Hatch to talk about football being his first love, transitioning to basketball with a football player’s mentality and developing his game, how Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler changed his college career path, being a part of “Run TMC” and how that trio stacks up against modern “big threes,” what happened behind the scenes when Don Nelson traded him to struggling Sacramento, his experience trying to carry the Kings, playing against rival shooting guard Michael Jordan, how he feels about winning a ring with the Lakers despite Phil Jackson hardly playing him, and much more! This episode is straight cash, nothin’ but net!
