![TREASURE - 'KING KONG' COMEBACK SPECIAL [THE TREASURE SHOW]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Jx1wyMaQzf0/mqdefault.jpg)
I cannot tell you, how hard I, as a Knicks fan, started manically laughing when I saw this title.
Same bro the team is a perpetual mess
Well you need good players to pay them a lot of money
Curry has had easy street to 3 chips. The 2 KD ones have asterisks for KD AND EVERYONE ELSE. The 2015 one was because of injury. Yes, all teams have injuries, but not usually, or ever, to their 2nd and 3rd best players.
Fan of the Knicks?... Why do you do that to yourself...
As a long time Knicks fan (longer than the dubs, what can you say? NBA jam made the Knicks dope as a kid)
I concur, so many giggles. Also, see Lakers since like 2010 on tryin to.
"You know you are good when you get paid. You know you are GREAT when you get other people paid." Thats a great line dude. Well done.
I replayed that part like 10 times. Great scripting for this video, like all others.
That quote is gold.
@@modolief gave me chills
Dont be surprised if someone on espn steals that golden quote
So I guess Magic is the best ever. He turned Worthy and Scott into stars while dragging a washed Kareem to more rings.
Jordan laughing at Curry's 4 year deal has made my day. How do you come up with this stuff man 😂
Best edit in the whole thing 😂
😂😂😂 was looking for this comment
“The Thunder spent about 45 cents on their roster last season and still won more games than the Rockets, Pistons, and Magic.” 😂
"You know you're good when you get paid, but you know you're great... when you get other people paid." This quote, and all of your previous videos, is why you're a master at your outros, Jxmy. Leaving the audience not with a definite answer to the question but something to think of as they exit is something you've mastered.
It also helps to have some dope music to sign off with.
Another great video!
All Time TH-camr
I came down here to look for this comment
I watched the other half of the video because of your comment.
Marvel will probably sue this dude sooner or later
I miss the trap sax
Brodies channel is literally the definition of Quality over Quantity. He doesn’t post every week or day but all his videos are going to pull in 1M plus guaranteed. All his videos are top quality
D Rider
yup. this is the way
@@twincitydezray explain how Shawn.
@@kingtchalla5868
It's one thing to compliment, but to go out of your way to talk about how many views he's gonna get is a D rider, I'm sorry
@@twincitydezray that's not dickriding by any means, he's just spitting facts... jimmy does pull a mill minimum on every vid he puts out💀
MJ laughing at Stephs contract was gold 😂
That clip of Jordan laughing at Steph was gold 😂
What’s actually more impressive to me than all the quality research, editing and graphs is the fact that he is still able to come up with great topics for videos for all these years. He could lose his edge like a show going into its 10th season and no one would fault him at all, yet it just doesn’t happen
I think that's what happens when you don't default to creating videos everyday like other creators. Gives him time to actually think stuff through. It's honestly refreshing.
which is why you need to hit the "like" button 3 times to show your love !!! :)
here is an interesting take. 5 years from now we may have 5 active players in the top 10 all time points leaders, i don't think that has ever happened before so if it does it will be unique.
at this point, Steph supermax contract is not just to keep him around (silly for you to think Steph going somewhere outside Warriors) but it is also served as "thank you for your hard work, service, and devotion to this team that whatever money you ask is always affordable for us unless you want to sent us to bankruptcy". Steph deserves it.
Also, the Dubs were just crowned the most valuable NBA team in the league at $7 billion. Lacob bought the team for less than $500 million if I remember correctly. First time it hasn't been Lakers or Knicks in forever.
That is all Steph. Can you imagine? Steph will probably make maybe $300-400 million in his entire NBA career in salary. Steph gifted Lacob 7 BILLION DOLLARS, 15 times what he spent!?
If you are Lacob, you pay Green, you pay Thompson, and you spend whatever you have to spend through the rest of Steph's prime until the fucking wheels fall off.
@@johnjperricone7856 i say it’s worth it
@@tavi7181 absolutely worth it and deserved
On top of that you gotta think about how much money they actually make off Steph’s merch sales, Steph’s marketability etc
Just like Kobe's last contract:
It was "Thank you, for your service to our franchise".
This dude is truly masterful with what he does here on TH-cam. It’s so weird to get goosebumps at the end of a sports video lol.
I’ve started watching your videos back in 2019 and throughout the time I’ve always thought „damn these are great videos“. But the quality of your videos continues to improve and i feel like every video sets the bar a bit higher. I just want to thank you for all the effort you’re putting in!
Duncan and Hakeem winning championships with payrolls not even ranked top 15 is really impressive 🤯
i remember duncan took paycuts to win. not sure about hakeem.
Exactly.Curry has had easy street to 3 chips. The 2 KD ones have asterisks for KD AND EVERYONE ELSE. The 2015 one was because of injury. Yes, all teams have injuries, but not usually, or ever, to their 2nd and 3rd best players.
@@diatribeeverything You not gonna talk about 2022 or are you in the past?
@@diatribeeverything so the 2019 chip has an asterisk too? Since the Warriors 2nd and 3rd best players were injured too. 🧐
@@diatribeeverything you mean Lebron who assembled a superstar team and earn his chips. That is a real buying a chips and it is a fact.
This man has been putting together such quality NBA statistics for years that I’m ACTUALLY SURPRISED a franchise in the league has not yet picked him up to break down certain numbers in order to win a chip for that specific franchise
Probably because his monetization is so insane, the front offices can't afford him.
I'm not, he's good but the league has money to out pay colleges and hire people with PhD's in this kind of shit. Not a knock on jimmy, his statistical breakdowns are my favorite part of this channel but when the money is high so are the qualifications required.
@@KermRiv exactly they'll get guys from MIT to do their analytics
You're joking right
most of his graphs are slightly misleading as they dont start from 0 making then look more insane than they are. if the average good player has 20-30 in a given stat, so you start your graph from 20 and the best ever is 35 that 35 looks insane. but if you show the whole graph from 0, it still looks pretty good but not that good
This really got me thinking about something I'd love to see you do a video on.
The value of certain franchises before and after obtaining certain players.
I.E; Bulls PRE Michael Jordan vs Bulls after he played has last game for them in 1998. Same concept for Tim Duncan and the Spurs, Dwayne Wade and the Heat, LeBron and the Cavs and various other franchises after a major dynasty or even just the impact of a single championship and a few good years I.E Bucks before Giannis and Bucks currently.
I think it'd be cool to learn these details (Even better to see them on charts)
I like this, hopefully he does something like this one day.
6:55 as a thunder fan, 45 cents is crazy 😭😭😭
💀💀💀
You know, there's a video of Steph still in his rookie years talking about whether he was underpaid or not, and he said something along the lines of "I don't ask for much, I'm blessed and I'm thankful and I know I'm getting what I deserve, I'm happy with that" and that mentality is why he's where he is rn.
Couldn't agree more. Steph is a humble guy.
Never watched a NBA game live. Not in person, not on TV.
Might have something to do with me being Norwegian, but still.
And yet, I've been watching Jimmy's videos intently the last 3-4 years.
Seeing you grow into an absolute behemoth of an NBA content creator has been pure joy.
I hope you one day get picked up by a major network and get to show the world what you got on an even bigger scale.
It would be a sad day for us, but a win for the world.
I'm proud of you.
We're proud of you.
Long may it last.
I got into watching European football from watching guys like Jimmy it's cool how someone can make something so interesting
I’m sure that he makes more money being independent on TH-cam
@@jewmail5395 hell no lmao
@@0rangecray0n what kind channels are like his for european football its a sport im interested in id like if u shared :)
@@piplupdabest he's probably making BANK, you underestimate what youtubers make off of sponsorships
Lmaoooo I love how Kyrie is the ultimate display of "unforeseen circumstances" 5:52
The analysis, creativity, originality cinematography, and music all put together is crazy. The best quality by any sports TH-camr by far.
Most overlooked thing by owners and GM's is team chemistry/culture. Everyone looks at how a person's stats will counter others, how their defense/3 point shooting will help space the floor or make things hard for the opponent. The great dynasties have culture and a team that's played together for years. Bulls, Spurs, Lakers, GSW. Hell, even take it outside of basketball and look at those years of barcelona with messi, iniesta and xavi. culture wins championships, not pocketbook.
As a big Barca fan, im glad that you mentioned them
You right the heat have had a great culture these past few years just not enough given to the team to really get them over that hump of winning the cavs are building a beautiful dynasty and culture as we speak post lebron the grizzlies seem like they have a culture but idk I feel like people can just leave they don’t feel as tightly constructed as the warriors the dynasty spurs or even the current cavs I feel like that will be there downfall
Keeping it on the football talk, look at how PSG has been doing in the quest for a Champions League and have an answer as to whether or not money gets you what you want in sports
@@matheusmarinho8280 man city too
Yeah look at football psg has all of the amazing players mbappe messi neymar donnoruma marqunious hakimi di maria veratti but the couldnt make it because the managers and the oil owners didn't understand how a team works it matters if these players can play together like example you named barca look at barca 2014 they knew how to play together
"Unforeseen circumstances"
Proceeds to zoom in on Kyrie.
I can't 🤣🤣🤣
8:45
Soon as I saw the graph, I knew who the top left circle was. 😆
The thing about the Warriors is how perfectly their contract situations line up for the future. If they want to keep Kuminga, Moody, and Wiseman, they have Klay and Draymond’s deals expiring at exactly the right time to get that done. And who knows, at that point you may be able to bring those two back on significantly cheaper deals as well. They have worked the cap to perfection to set themselves up for a long time.
When he said the thunder had spent 45 cents on their roster had me dieing😂😂
Something that is missing in this analysis is the ticket and merchandise revenue that superstars like Curry, Giannis and Lebron generate..that also factors into paying these guys.
Probably you are right, but those factors are just the effect of winning games and winning a championship.
@@dxbgaming4813 not excactly, actualy they are about popularity. most of the time is the same thing but some players are more markatable while they contribute to team wins less than others that keep a low profile and they are not divas.
Besides that, teams will pay more a player who can carry them even if it's not better than other players in superteams for example. Sometimes your only star will get more than a teams 3rd star even if both win equally or it the other is actually more valuble. And another thing is the pro name. If you playing like 10 years in the league and you are a star even if you didn't win a chip or mvp - fmvp award will get more than "a 2 years in" player with a chip or even mvp. Cause its fact that the long that you are playing the more your contract grows. But what you said its the rule, not going to argue that, just naming some exceptions to make it more clear.
After seeing the GSW in the 2023 playoff, I can understand why the front office might be a little pissed...
”You know you’re good when you get paid, but you know you’re great when you get other people paid” well said Jimi
This is the best line of this entire video!
I just realized Jimmy doesn't just make good videos. He is an AMAZING WRITER. This script hits hard!! Well written, well thought-through, well read - oh, and sure - the videos are GREAT! Well produced, well supported, great data insights, cool graphs, all of that is just cementing the points he's making in the video. But now I'm intrigued .. are there other channels this guy is doing? I mean I like the NBA stuff, but his talent is absurd, I would read/listen to this guy talk about anything really, with his depth and research - damn man - bring it! Finance, business, health and fitness, computers, tech, I mean that literally - I would LOVE to watch more content from this guy. It's almost like he found his niche with NBA, he crushed it, and he should absolutely continue dominating that domain on TH-cam, but man I wish he'd expand to more channels or more topics. Mad props.
I’ve been following you for years now. I don’t remember when you started making videos like this, with a prevailing theme, looked at from so many angles, but they’re amazing! No one does what you do, bro.
As a content creator your content is a inspiration and a case study to learn quality content, great script writing amazing voice over and tonation...
Mixed that with great editing and you have yourself a recipe to build a media powerhouse
“You know you’re good when you get paid; you know you’re great when you get other people paid”
Jxmy Highroller, Halloween 2022
MJ laughing back to back clips just made my night. Wonderfully done
thats was great edit i loled too :D
Your visualizations are so neat man. There is so much effort in his video’s and sometimes it is unnoticeable that says how good he does it. Big respect. Follower from the beginning until the end. The best NBA related contend!
The quality of these videos are amazing. Impressive work, you don't see big networks come close to this level of details and analysis
i don't even like the Warriors, but they shouldn't be punished for being good at developing their talent into players worthy of big contracts. if there's one thing you can't take away from them, it's that they're a true homegrown team.
Yeah exactly, why would you even punish a team that was built from scratch and slowly make it to the top ? The players just got what they deserved and the team is grateful to give it.
They should punish the teams that overhaul the whole roster, coaching staff once a certain player arrives.
Let’s be honest, y’all weren’t expecting Jimy to upload🙌❤️🔥
nah with all these 40 pieces and crazy performances i thought he was gonna upload
I’m no longer supportting the nba so much money practically wasted so much could be done with America problems more than America tbh
Hell no
True that glad tho foe shure dat be legit home boy
@@Kneegrow3000 First off you almost made no sense. And secondly, why are you spending money on basketball? Betting thousands and so on.
Bro thanks for putting so much work into these. Appreciate how much effort was put for just one video. Insane info right there
Sometime around 5 years ago you really started to nail how to do great narration, pacing yourself while being clear and confident yet laid back. It really set you apart. Keep up the good work.
It’s amazing how much data and research this man go through to bring us TOP QUALITY content it’s always a great day when he uploads
dude's abusing the linear regression
One thing i noticed was those 4 championships where the teams had the number 1 payroll came AFTER they already had their dynasty... those teams were simply paying the players that contributed to their teams success and continuing their title run rather than scrapping it together to go at it that year.
Yup and that's why luxury taxes for drafted players shouldn't exist
Major point
Top tier content as per usual Jxmbo, I dunno what to say. Somebody pay this man!
Love your vidoes man. Randomly stumbled on one of your vids in 2020 and been a fan since. The topics, the outros, the editing, damn 🤙🏻
These videos are always so interesting, I always look forward to watching your videos. I love the amount of effort you put into your videos and how addictive your channel is.
These videos are the golden standard. Insane work!
Do vids like this
Dude seriously, i always have chills in the end of your videos, the words and the music always gets me, tanks for the videos, fan from brazil here
Golden State just lost to the Lakers in the Semi's. I'm back here again. the answer: No you can't buy a championship.
Salary Cap needed to exist so the Warriors Franchise won't go broke just for S.Curry. But damn imagine being so valuable that the pay that could've went to you was shared to the whole team instead.
that MJ clip at 11:12 got me weak 🤣🤣
Make a video about current and past Refs in the NBA and why they changed ?
EXCELLENT VID, BRO.
SUPERB JOB !!! 🤜🏾🤛🏾🙌🏿🙌🏿
Not even really a basketball fan, but been loving your videos lately! Really loved the line "you know you're good when you get paid, but you know you're great when you get OTHER people paid."
In terms of impact to teammates, I could argue that Curry is second only to MJ.
@@jdapaul1351 ur forgetting chris paul made deandre jordan a all nba player
@@duncan2560 that's one player impacted by CP3. How about leading teammates to championships?
@@jdapaul1351 MJ impacted his teammates in what way? Horace, Pip n Rodmanm shit even Harper were nice before and after Mike. Kerr always the same role
@@Heatlifer77 stepped up their game? Stats don't show the whole story, but their testimonies tell their part, if you watched The Last Dance. I think it was Will Perdue or Judd Buechler that said something like if they weren't teammates with MJ, they wouldn't have improved their game.
In 2017 Curry was still on that crazy cheap deal
Yeah. He was the 5th most paid player on the Warriors.
I just love coming back to these videos. Jimmy rolls so high❤
Your data analysis and discussion is excellent
So happy that the Warriors owners are all in in this. If you are in a situation where you can make histrory you have to do it. It's like having a pair of aces in poker. Have to make them work.
Curry has had easy street to 3 chips. The 2 KD ones have asterisks for KD AND EVERYONE ELSE. The 2015 one was because of injury. Yes, all teams have injuries, but not usually, or ever, to their 2nd and 3rd best players.
@@diatribeeverything cringe
@@diatribeeverything You’re sad to think that. GSW had no curry years and many no Klay Thompson years despite all the injuries they always came up on top
@@diatribeeverything dude stop being a hater. It’s obvious at this point
@@diatribeeverything take the L mate.
Hands down one of the best Basketball related videos I have ever seen. Thank you Jimmy for creating some of the best content on this platform!
The way you use graphs and stats is amazing. So much hard work 😃👍🏻
Great Stuff, jxmy 💯
"unforeseen circumstances" cuts to Kyrie I'm dead 🤣
I don't see what's funny here. I hate to kill the fun but....I don't think Jimmy meant it like that.
Covid protocols (which Kyrie didn't fully appreciate) were unforseen for the common folk at least.
Did you foresee a state in a first world country to deny an athlete the chance to perform because he had reservations about a non-fully tested procedure? Meanwhile allowing fans entry without verification on said procedure?
Its a tough situation that the warriors are in rightnow, i think the amount of salary that the big 5 five get is reasonable. Andrew Wiggins is considered underpaid for his performance, Jordan Pooles contract had to be higher than Herro‘s ( as he is the more talented player). Klay‘s contract is still from his pre-injury years( he will prob take a big pay cut) and draymonds contract is also expiring. The Warriors almost drafted all their players, not their fault that they are all good.
It's not just that they all turned out good, they develop their players unlike other teams
Entertaining asf bro good video brodie❗️
i love how he just scrolls through weeks and months of hard work so casually, keep grinding jimmy!
Jxmy’d finally back to uploading consistently. Was dying without an August video.
I mean, you can buy players, and if someone’s signs Steph LeBron KD and a bunch of stars, yea, you can buy wins
The salary cap and CBA with the extension rules is already setup to where this isn’t even really possible. There’s a reason you don’t see huge free agency periods anymore with absolute superstars becoming UFA and shopping around and changing teams. The money is SOOOO huge to stay with your team it is just too big of an incentive to stay. You can’t buy a Steph Curry or a Giannis or a Luka etc. You have to draft them. Even the second tier guys like a Zach LaVine. He wasn’t going to leave CHI this summer because they could pay him WAY more money than anyone else, and obviously they did.
The only way really is to trade for a disgruntled star, and even that is tough. KD wanted out but he’s too good and he is under contract because of course he took the max with BKN. You can maybe trade for a Harden if he really makes a stink and has baggage, maybe can get a Kyrie bc he has baggage. But you’re not buying a Steph or Giannis or Luka.
The whole being able to buy wins thing is a farce. You need to be able to start well and make savvy moves as a front office to even put yourself in position to have amazing players to pay.
Jimmy did this video because the NBA is proposing an ACTUAL hard cap. There already a hard cap you can trigger by using the full MLE, BAE, doing a sign and trade blah blah. But I’m talking an actual number you cannot pass no matter what. The NBA basically is saying it’s not fair GSW and teams like LAC can afford to pay so much in luxury tax and they need to be limited or there won’t be any parity.
They’re dead wrong and there’s some ulterior motive. Plus GSW has some of the least rich owners in the league. DEN is owned by a multi billionaire and is cutting corners (they rly didn’t have to move Monte Morris and they could really use him now, or some good backup PG) to pay less tax. Obviously GSW is in a good market and they make some of the highest revenue in the league…but they’re basically in the red anyway. Meanwhile non tax teams are getting $10, $15M checks bc they get 50% of the total tax penalties the tax teams pay.
There are probably going to be 10 teams that end up paying the tax this season. Might be 9 but let’s use 10 for simplicity. They’re going to pay some obscene amount of luxury tax, let’s say $600M. 50% of that goes to the NBA. So there’s $300M left. The other $300M gets split between the 20 non tax paying teams. So those 20 teams will all receive a $15M check at the end of the year of pure profit.
The NBA proposal is a joke, and it’s a pure non starter for the NBPA. Surely the NBA knows this. I think they’re using it as a bargaining chip. Like oh you guys won’t do this, well then at least do this (insert way less extreme thing that benefits the owners) bc that’s how bargaining works.
@@BOnYTB Yea, however if you look at the Warriors roster and remove Wiggins, look there who’s not drafted. Only Ty Jerome and JaMychal Green, who joined this season. I feel like they should remove all fees and taxes and limits and whatnot for drafted players signing extensions for their original reans
@@NiX_xD donte ty jamychal anthony lamb
@@glubzyoutube4374 All of which joined this season as rotational players. Like if none of them and Andrew Wiggins didn’t play, they’d still be good enough to like get a top four seed and make it to the second round or conference finals or even the championship with Steph just giving it his all and developing their players.
Yep, that why being an owner is hard. You let them walk, "they call you dumb".. you pay them what they want and they decline, "they call you dumb", then you get called dumb if they implode or just choke every year.
Man jimmy you never miss a SINGLE freaking video, the storytelling is unmatched, no one can talk statistics like this man and make it a super engaging conversation, they just dont!
Wow great video. Love the writing. Love the concept. Love the editing.
With Poole, Wiggins (although he is 27), Wiseman, Moody and Kuminga; I can see the Warriors being very good in 5 year as well
Yea they just gotta get their defense back. What the heck happened to it over the offseason ???LOL
Wiggins will lead that team as a 32 year old vet. I feel he’ll even be a better all around player by then
Fascinating and really well explained video, especially the charts. Honestly it's bullet proof imo. I want to mention for some folks that the Warriors main owner Lacob, is like bottom 5 in wealth for NBA owners. So as explained you can't buy a championship, but you can pay the people that made your team worth billions after you bought it for a few hundred million, and pay them well. Steph is worth it as well as my other boys
It's not really bullet proof.
On the chart with the value of the players, he put the line at a point where it could suit his narrative and not at the intersection of the lowest salary and lowest WS.
And he forgot that the salary of a player is not only correlated to his performance on court but also on how much money he brings to the franchise. Steph's salary for exemple reflects his performances and how much he helps selling jerseys, tickets to games, etc.
Great observation, kudos to the owner 👊👏. Spread the wealth, dont get stingy 😜
@@ArtMagik Steph is worth a lot more, like triple of Klay and Draymond 🤷🏽♂️
Golden State is now worth $7 billion, Lacob is getting more than a just return on his payroll expenditures. The Warriors took in $765 million and $206 million in operating income last year alone.
@@ahmetturgut6131 Well, I'm not in secret of the Warriors offices, so I don't know how much he brings to the table.
But considering the rules (Salary cap and Luxury tax) that are currently on the NBA, he is paid on what he's worth under those rules.
Fire video as always Jimmy!
Jimmy back at it with the graphs
This video made me think about how I’d love you to make a video about owners that blew up their teams after their championship runs to avoid paying too much in salary (like the Mavs after 2011)
I love ur videos so much man. My day becomes so much better when you post. Thanks for the entertainment keep going bro 🔥🐐

idk if anyone has said this, but I'm very grateful for jxmy gathering figures, analytics and such to bring us dumdums to speed of what goes on both on and off the court. Probably my fav bball channel atm.
Jimmy never fails to make my day better when he uploads
The win shares to salary graph should probably widen its line of best fit as it goes higher, especially since there's fewer people to fit the line up there.
Jordan Poole needs to step up. Currently game 6 of semis against lakers
Cosgrove and Jxmy uploading on the same day, a miracle just happened, the two GOATs of NBA content oh lord im gonna pass out
This is AWESOME!
Man this guy just makes every day he releases a video so much better. The 🐐
good job doing better graphs. always enjoy your videos. keep it up !
Can you make a video on why nba teams want to win a championship so badly? how much money does winning a chip generate for the owners and players. Are all the spending worth it? How it changed through the years. I think it's not talked about so much
Yes please!! I always wondered the same
Great job as always! I would argue: 18 of the championships from the last 30 years went to teams in the top 1/3 of salary ranges, 10 went to the middle third, and only 2 in the bottom third. That distribution is statistically significant to a statistician. Spending a lot of money is often essential but NOT sufficient... its why we play the games..... (Also CBA changes have changed so much over the last 30 years... the NBA no longer "overpays" rookies.. as your chart illustrates well)
BUT....GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS!!!
Great video Jimmy! Your infographics never fail to amaze me.
great video as always, one thing i noticed not taken into account tho is how much star power some of these players have (i.e. if you're a household name or more popular in the world of basketball more people are going to buy tickets to come see you/watch when yr team plays/sell more merch and so forth). i think that also factors into their salary and might not have anything to do with their win shares
FANTASTIC research! You made great points at the end about the Warriors. Since Steph has a certain skillset and the current Warriors roster perfectly compliments his skills, the front office will have next to no problem writing the checks as long as it keeps them contenders.
I think Adam Silver said he’s looking into a hard cap so that way large market teams don’t get as much of an advantage over small market teams but after watching this I’m not sure how much of an effect that would really have
No more GSW. No team should be paying more in luxury tax than actual salary. Superteams whether bought, built, or hybrid need to end. The league hasn't been fun to watch when we all know barring injury GSW is likely to win.
@@Blue.Marvel barring injury I believe the Bucks would’ve won last season if they played the warriors
@@ViolentKknight I seriously doubt that. The Bucks cannot keep up with GSW offensively.
love this channel bro no cap
