🏀 Ralph Sampson Wanted ALL THE SMOKE in the 80’s
Fighting Celtics, Facing Hate, & Finding Peace
How’s it going,
What’s good, family — Matt & Stak back with another one from the Smoke Lounge.
This week, we sat down with Ralph Sampson, the 7’4” unicorn before unicorns were a thing. Hall of Famer, four-time All-Star, and the original Twin Tower with Hakeem.
Ralph pulled up humble but dropped some wild stories — from Bob Knight trying to break him, to fighting the Celtics and Boston racism, to why every trophy he ever earned still sits in his parents’ house.
This one’s bigger than basketball — it’s about legacy, lessons, and standing tall in every sense of the word. Let’s get into it.

As always, appreciate y’all — Matt & Stack
