Edis Delgado absolutely. Pacers were a very good team. No superstars and one semi Star. Paul George wasn’t that good until the 3rd time Pacers played Heat. He was the 5th option first go when Pacers had a 2-1 lead on Heat. He was basically about the same a John Starks But they were a very good team and no disrespect. A lot of tough, role players. I was just pointing out how the Knicks were very similar but better then Pacers. Knicks had one superstar. But Pacers still gave Heat all they could handle.

He wasn't involved when Paxson hit the game winning shot but he was the only one scoring for his team the entire 4th quarter before that shot went in 😶
Oh so kinda like in that game 6 against the spurs when "ray allen saved brons legacy?" Bron dominated that fourth quarter, but you wouldn't know that unless you watched.
@@justynbrown7373 Yeah, actually the two scenarios are NOTHING alike! After a series of bricked threes and a turnover by Lebron followed by missed free throws by the Spurs , Lebron bricks another three and Bosh ends up with the rebound. It's a completely broken play when Ray Allen gets the ball and hits the three. If Ray Allen misses that shot, Spurs win the CHAMPIONSHIP, hence he "saved Lebron's legacy"! If Paxson misses the three, the series goes to game 7 in Pheonix because the Bulls were up 3 games to 2! GTFOH!!
@@cyber6sapien WTF??! In that game 6 lebron scored 16 straight points and with 20 seconds left in the 4th he hits a 3 to cut the deficit to 2. On the Spurs next possession kawhi misses one out of 2 free throws which then makes it just a 3 point lead and gives miami a chance to tie. Without those 16 straight and clutch 3 to even give miami a chance for a tying 3, they lose. All I see is ray allen getting all the credit when in reality they wouldnt have even been in that situation if lebron hadnt made the big time plays he made. I didnt even mention the steal he had in OT with less than a minute left in a 1 point game. In 93 jordan had 9 4th quarter points and paxson hits a 3 that wins them a championship!! Not a 3 to force OT and MAYBE a game 7 that woulda been up in there on who wins, but a 3 to win jordans third title.
@@cyber6sapien I also didnt even bring up the great game 7 performance bron had. 37 points 12 rebounds and 4 assist. To sit there and give all the credit to ray allen and saying that he "saved his legacy" and acting as if lebron had nothing to do with that game 6 in which he had a 32 point TRIPLE DOUBLE is just disgraceful. Ray forsure didnt win that game 7 for lebron
Chris is being disingenuous about last years Raptors. They had some all stars and all NBA players on their team. Lowry, Gasol, Ibaka, and Green all have more accolades than anyone outside of Ewing on that Knicks team. That Knicks team was a team of overachievers.
The documentary also didn't show Jordan hitting 2 ft's to ice game 6 of the 92 Finals against Portland to give the Bulls a 4 point lead with 11.8 seconds to go in the close out game that they won.
They weren’t idk how people are watching this with a straight face acting like they were it’s nostalgia Jordan was all time great probably the greatest but John starks all of 6’3 maybe guarding him
11:41 well that was not even an elimination game. And yes he had a bad game but nobody mentions that in the 1993 season that he had a bad wrist that bothered him. And but unlike your boy LeBron, he responded with a 54 point game in Game 4, a 29 point triple double in Game 5 at the Garden.
8:45 this is how I know Nick Wright does not watch any basketball and does not even study statistics. Shawn Kemp's downfall came when the lockout happened in 1999 and he is dismissing Steve Smith as if he was a 5 PPG scorer in the 90s
13:01 yes your 'somebody' gets killed for it because first of all he doesn't really hold scrimmages with the team and second of all he is a leader who quits when something goes wrong
Lebron's legendary performance vs Pistons in 07 playoffs : 25,7 ppg on 45% shooting Jordan's terrible performance against Orlando in 95 playoffs : 31 ppg on 48% shooting Just stop it Jordan is the GOAT and it is not even close
@@troyduffie3836 I am saying that even in the series that Lebron fans trying to bring up to lower Jordan's legacy, Jordan was still performing better than Lebron when he had his biggest achievement in a Cavs uniform
Ali Öz definitely not his biggest achievement in a cavs uniform. dude was 22 and beat championships scoring 25 straight points and 29 of the final 30-at 22. But you got it bro.
The Knicks point was a little excessive but the second one was on point. I came away with respect for Kobe and LeBron for doing it for 20 and 17 years straight respectively. The scrutiny, the fame, and the spotlight in a time of social media in addition to a 24-Hour news cycle didn’t drive them crazy-much respect.
Troy Duffie I agree but it’s you also have to take into account how much has changed since that period. Jordan may have not been able to take the criticisms and social media spotlight that Kobe and Lebron had to deal with. But you also have to consider that players in the league have so much more help dealing with this stuff. Magic, Jordan, Bird, ect basically had an agent, their family, and coaches giving them advise. Now guys like Lebron, Zion, ect have management teams, finance teams, media teams watching and guiding their every move. It’s definitely a different world now.
Dimitry Thomas MJ definitely had a team that created his image. But beyond that, no one can protect you from that scrutiny and pressure-no team, planning session, staff or otherwise can shield you.
Troy Duffie Yeah, it’s not the same now. Lebron easily has hundreds of people working with and for him. Look at all the football and basketball players that went broke in 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s. It’s almost impossible for that to happen in basketball now the way the league and these management teams set these guys up now.
“Why did the heat not win 4 straight titles” Well the 1st season they played through Wade & and saw that was a mistake not to mention they were trying to get 3 guys who were #1 options for almost a decade on their teams to figure out how to play together lol. The 4th season Wades knee had gotten so bad he almost retired in ‘13 and by the ‘14 Finals it was so bad he could only put up 15.2 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 2.6 APG & shot just 43% shooting and played bad defense. Usually great teams that make 3 or more Finals HAVE 3-4 HOFers for a REASON lol. In the ‘90s it was only single & duos great players on a team and the Bulls clearly had the best duo (& had the best #3 option most of the time with Horace/Rodman…more so Horace though). Lotta people don’t know the Bulls had MJ/Pip/Horace all finish top 16 in PER in ‘92……the Heats big 3 never all 3 finished in the top 20 in PER any season. The only season of Horaces prime he was at least the #2 option he was ALl Defense and an All Star. He was a top 20 player from ‘92-‘95 …the fats back it up. Go look at all his advanced metrics those seasons. There’s a reason after the Bulls lost in ‘95 MJ himself said “we are a Horace Grant away”….💁
The game they are talking about is game 1. He went to Atlantic City that night -and scored a storm the next day. Get it together on the facts . Especially Broussard who should know better
This is not a documentary, this is an infomercial. You are crazy if you think Michael Jordan is going to sign off on something that ruins his reputation and not highlight his greatness.
YMF TV Terrible game for Jordan but Nick is also purposefully leaving out that Jordan also shot 16-17 from the FT line. He finished with 22/9/11 and played great D in that game.
And they ref LeBron like Shaq. So we know he wouldn't go to the line that many times. And 18 free throws say he took an additional 8 or 9 shots (maybe and 1 or something). 3/26... hmmm. Yea no. But I promise if john Stockton and john starks guarded LeBron. There would NEVER be a 3 for 18... hersey hawkins... joe dumars... jeff hornacek, celtics guards? Stoooooopit
Dan majerle... who are these lockdown defenders??? And did you see the transition defense... and not to mention when there wasnt a foul committed that defense didn't look too intimidating. Js
So MJ got "saved" by his team in game 3 against the Knicks while he went 3 for 18. There are a bunch of these games. There is so much "luck" with stuff like this...
Normally Broussard is right on with his points…..but he’s not with this Knicks team. The Bulls LOST PRIME MJ yet still went 7 games BARELY losing to those Knicks….they went 6 games with them the season before WITH PRIME MJ. They weren’t a great team whatsoever. At the absolute BEST they were a really good team a few seasons.
How is it a issue if he wanna gamble his money how is dat a issue ?? And plenty of players get snub from all stars every year so fck Thomas Jordan goat 🐐
Nick is correct about the competition that Jordan faced. The league was watered down by expansion and great players be spread out. He is also correct about the Knicks teams not being that good.
Coach Jon they hate positivism!! The 90’s weren’t that good!! 3 point line came up 2ft because they couldn’t score, today’s game they’re asking for it to be pushed back
For Jordan to be on top means that the competition had to be on bottom. They didn't superteam like LeBron did so each team had 1 to 2 stars. Knicks went to finals after Bulls. Magic didn't get a 6th ring because of Jordan. Two time defending champion Pistons got swept. Phoenix with MVP Barkley lost. Seattle crew with the Glove and The Reign man was defeated. Pacers - not that time. The Jazz defeated twice in the finals. No Finals went to past 6 games. The Bulls were dominant thus that is why you think they faced weak competiiton.
@@rd2783 If you want to say it like that the only reason why Lebron went to 9 finals so much was because he face weak competitions in the east. Imagine if he was in the western conference he would've only been to 3 finals appearance if you wan't to say it like that.
Rick Duong the bulls were a super team!! LeBron left the heat, they didn’t make the playoffs!! Doesn’t sound like a super team to me, Jordan retired, and the bulls only lost 2 less games!! Jordan needed Phil and Tex triangle offense to be successful as he’s yet to smell a finals without Phil Jackson!! Jordan needed a system to thrive, lebron is the system!! The only player to win without a great coach!! Lakers had a team full of all stars and didn’t reach the finals until Phil Jackson came!! The 2004 Detroit Pistons had no hall of Famers just a great coach and beat a team full of hall of famers!! Players score points but it’s the gm and coach who wins championships!! Lebron james is a rare talent
BRON I RESPECT UR GREATNESS CUZ I SAW U MANY TIMES PLAYING LIVE! FROM GERMANY 2004 TILL CAVS VS DETROIT 2007 PLAYOFF'S FROM MONTE CARLO TO USA JUST TO SEE YOU WITH MY DAD. But right now u should be concern about Steph, KD and Kawhi cuz they keep winning in ur ERA. let alone Mj debate, ther was never a debate.all this Bs i Blame the media, lebron is losing fans around the world cuz of the media fanboy's.
I think it’d ridiculous that he gets bashed for not following a political agenda. Just because he didn’t want to campaign for a left winger … that’s his right.
What Nick and Chris and the worthless other guy failed to bring up during the suns finals topic was that even though Paxson hit the game winner, Jordan made every other field goal in the 4th quarter. NO OTHER BULLS’ PLAYER SCORED the last 12 minutes outside of Paxson and his game winning 3. Funny how that was left out by a so called serial numbers and FACTS analyst like a nick wright.
Great Scott that’s because Nick Wright has no idea what he’s talking about. He’s doing a great job of holding his crazy biases strong and staying on brand. This is what Skip Bayless and Skip have done their whole careers.
That is literally a gambling addiction. Mike tripping. He's the definition of a sellout and an addict. Mike would lose his mind in today's world given all the things he went through in his career. "Social Media" would eat him alive.
Nick Wright is incredible...i mean, the Knicks teams that was 2-0 over Chicago was based full on invisble statue or undrafted people from the streets of New York...cmon, for him only LeBron EVER played against the most talented team ever ever ever in the world...how can you be there and do that job with this biased opinion...
Nick wright always says lebron james beat 73-9 warriors only because dray got suspended in game 6 that forced game 7 Jordan never let game go to 7 games or get swept once lebron james got swept 5 times in finals 3-6 Jordan 6-0 6 finals mvp
Chris talks from both sides of his mouth alot of the time thats one reason I was glad when KD said what he said about him also he loves to act like he knows more tha he does remember Kawahi to the Lakers Clippers are out. lol!!!
Nick knows nothing about basketball. Please get him off the air. He is the most biased reporter and defends LBJ at all cost. He will do anything to protect LBJ's legacy. Get someone else who actually knows the history of NBA basketball.
Please listen to us. The regular people like us. Most of us don't want Nick talking about basketball no more. He can talk about other things but not basketball. He doesn't know.
Get off Nick, every media reporter is just as bad as the other. Chris was basically saying kawhi was going to the lakers... Wrong, The truth said he was better than D Wade... Wrong and many many more. Jordan fanboys are just as bad as bronsexuals, this needs to stop they are both amazing players in their respective eras. Jordan was the goat then, lebron is the goat now who cares about who was the best because they are both the best.
nick wright lol what a annoying head to look at talking sports. imagine you were kobe and had this guy that looks like he had every allergy and never played a sport in his life hate on you from a position of superiority
Dan majerle... who are these lockdown defenders??? And did you see the transition defense... and not to mention when there wasnt a foul committed that defense didn't look too intimidating. Go back and look at the tapes man. Watch the games in the entirety. And u give me a name of some players that from those days that are better than KD, Giannis, guards that are athletic like Russell Westbrook. And the talent was so spread out. And they were ALL smoking and drinking. So all the athletes were at a disadvantage. Like. The league now is talent based. Period.
What are your thoughts on last night's episodes of the Michael Jordan documentary 'The Last Dance'?
The knicks werent good but they are in the eastern conference finals and in 1994 they are in the finals...
This doc is getting better and better with each episodes. Love the fact that he doesn't apologize for anything. That is why he is so great.

He wasn't involved when Paxson hit the game winning shot but he was the only one scoring for his team the entire 4th quarter before that shot went in 😶
Oh so kinda like in that game 6 against the spurs when "ray allen saved brons legacy?" Bron dominated that fourth quarter, but you wouldn't know that unless you watched.
@@justynbrown7373 Yeah, actually the two scenarios are NOTHING alike! After a series of bricked threes and a turnover by Lebron followed by missed free throws by the Spurs , Lebron bricks another three and Bosh ends up with the rebound. It's a completely broken play when Ray Allen gets the ball and hits the three. If Ray Allen misses that shot, Spurs win the CHAMPIONSHIP, hence he "saved Lebron's legacy"! If Paxson misses the three, the series goes to game 7 in Pheonix because the Bulls were up 3 games to 2! GTFOH!!
@@justynbrown7373 dude there was a rebound and bosh passing it to allen not the same thing lebron missed that shot
@@cyber6sapien WTF??! In that game 6 lebron scored 16 straight points and with 20 seconds left in the 4th he hits a 3 to cut the deficit to 2. On the Spurs next possession kawhi misses one out of 2 free throws which then makes it just a 3 point lead and gives miami a chance to tie. Without those 16 straight and clutch 3 to even give miami a chance for a tying 3, they lose. All I see is ray allen getting all the credit when in reality they wouldnt have even been in that situation if lebron hadnt made the big time plays he made. I didnt even mention the steal he had in OT with less than a minute left in a 1 point game. In 93 jordan had 9 4th quarter points and paxson hits a 3 that wins them a championship!! Not a 3 to force OT and MAYBE a game 7 that woulda been up in there on who wins, but a 3 to win jordans third title.
@@cyber6sapien I also didnt even bring up the great game 7 performance bron had. 37 points 12 rebounds and 4 assist. To sit there and give all the credit to ray allen and saying that he "saved his legacy" and acting as if lebron had nothing to do with that game 6 in which he had a 32 point TRIPLE DOUBLE is just disgraceful. Ray forsure didnt win that game 7 for lebron
Nick roasting the Knicks (ha!) was hilarious
Chris is being disingenuous about last years Raptors. They had some all stars and all NBA players on their team. Lowry, Gasol, Ibaka, and Green all have more accolades than anyone outside of Ewing on that Knicks team. That Knicks team was a team of overachievers.
They had 1 superstar and rising star great role players and with a healthy warriors would have still lose
Siakam is also a beast.
Nick is correct. That Knicks team was trash. They blame Patrick Ewing for not winning against the Bulls.
Gambling with even the security isnt a problem. That sounds like an addiction to me.
Nick Wright, the Knicks were one win away from beating the Rockets in six games in the 1994 NBA Finals. Not bad for a team that "wasn't very good".
The documentary also didn't show Jordan hitting 2 ft's to ice game 6 of the 92 Finals against Portland to give the Bulls a 4 point lead with 11.8 seconds to go in the close out game that they won.
When I said those team jordan faced were not as good as people in the media say they were, I get pushback.
Beside the the piston
They weren’t idk how people are watching this with a straight face acting like they were it’s nostalgia Jordan was all time great probably the greatest but John starks all of 6’3 maybe guarding him
Can't believe we have so called fans of you
Nick is just blabbering literally. Just blatantly disrespecting good players.
11:41 well that was not even an elimination game. And yes he had a bad game but nobody mentions that in the 1993 season that he had a bad wrist that bothered him. And but unlike your boy LeBron, he responded with a 54 point game in Game 4, a 29 point triple double in Game 5 at the Garden.
They wont ever get into Jordan's real off the court issues until he passes away. Everyone is too scared to do it.
8:45 this is how I know Nick Wright does not watch any basketball and does not even study statistics. Shawn Kemp's downfall came when the lockout happened in 1999 and he is dismissing Steve Smith as if he was a 5 PPG scorer in the 90s
How good was Orlando that sent Bron home? How many All Stars?
13:01 yes your 'somebody' gets killed for it because first of all he doesn't really hold scrimmages with the team and second of all he is a leader who quits when something goes wrong
Lebron's legendary performance vs Pistons in 07 playoffs : 25,7 ppg on 45% shooting
Jordan's terrible performance against Orlando in 95 playoffs : 31 ppg on 48% shooting
Just stop it Jordan is the GOAT and it is not even close
We can’t in one breath say winning is all that matters and in the next breath say if you had great stats in a losing effort we should applaud you.
Joe Jackson I’m with you bro 🤷🏾♂️
@@troyduffie3836
I am saying that even in the series that Lebron fans trying to bring up to lower Jordan's legacy, Jordan was still performing better than Lebron when he had his biggest achievement in a Cavs uniform
Ali Öz definitely not his biggest achievement in a cavs uniform. dude was 22 and beat championships scoring 25 straight points and 29 of the final 30-at 22. But you got it bro.
Nick doesn't remember the Knicks didn't have the best defense those years?
Broussard said the raptors had Kawhi Leonard and nobody else last year lol. What a clown
The Knicks point was a little excessive but the second one was on point. I came away with respect for Kobe and LeBron for doing it for 20 and 17 years straight respectively. The scrutiny, the fame, and the spotlight in a time of social media in addition to a 24-Hour news cycle didn’t drive them crazy-much respect.
Troy Duffie I agree but it’s you also have to take into account how much has changed since that period. Jordan may have not been able to take the criticisms and social media spotlight that Kobe and Lebron had to deal with. But you also have to consider that players in the league have so much more help dealing with this stuff. Magic, Jordan, Bird, ect basically had an agent, their family, and coaches giving them advise. Now guys like Lebron, Zion, ect have management teams, finance teams, media teams watching and guiding their every move. It’s definitely a different world now.
Dimitry Thomas MJ definitely had a team that created his image. But beyond that, no one can protect you from that scrutiny and pressure-no team, planning session, staff or otherwise can shield you.
Troy Duffie Yeah, it’s not the same now. Lebron easily has hundreds of people working with and for him. Look at all the football and basketball players that went broke in 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s. It’s almost impossible for that to happen in basketball now the way the league and these management teams set these guys up now.
Dimitry Thomas what does money management have to do with dealing with fame mentally?
@@troyduffie3836 has aloy if you think about its not rocket science
“Why did the heat not win 4 straight titles”
Well the 1st season they played through Wade & and saw that was a mistake not to mention they were trying to get 3 guys who were #1 options for almost a decade on their teams to figure out how to play together lol.
The 4th season Wades knee had gotten so bad he almost retired in ‘13 and by the ‘14 Finals it was so bad he could only put up 15.2 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 2.6 APG & shot just 43% shooting and played bad defense.
Usually great teams that make 3 or more Finals HAVE 3-4 HOFers for a REASON lol. In the ‘90s it was only single & duos great players on a team and the Bulls clearly had the best duo (& had the best #3 option most of the time with Horace/Rodman…more so Horace though).
Lotta people don’t know the Bulls had MJ/Pip/Horace all finish top 16 in PER in ‘92……the Heats big 3 never all 3 finished in the top 20 in PER any season. The only season of Horaces prime he was at least the #2 option he was ALl Defense and an All Star. He was a top 20 player from ‘92-‘95 …the fats back it up. Go look at all his advanced metrics those seasons. There’s a reason after the Bulls lost in ‘95 MJ himself said “we are a Horace Grant away”….💁
Most famous athlete in the late 80’s early 90’s was Michael Tyson, not Jordan.
So Nick Wright was a die hard Knicks fan but he didn’t see game 3 of that Knicks-Bulls series up 2-0? Something isn’t adding up
93 knicks had a bunch of c/pfs like we do now
The game they are talking about is game 1. He went to Atlantic City that night -and scored a storm the next day. Get it together on the facts . Especially Broussard who should know better
Nick Wright is funny
NICK picks out one game where the 🐐MJ was not very good but his team still won. We could have a whole programme on LE BRON big fails.
This is not a documentary, this is an infomercial. You are crazy if you think Michael Jordan is going to sign off on something that ruins his reputation and not highlight his greatness.
That knicks team is very good defense tough team not as good skill but good tough
3-18? And a word isn't said. Couldn't be Bron
YMF TV Terrible game for Jordan but Nick is also purposefully leaving out that Jordan also shot 16-17 from the FT line. He finished with 22/9/11 and played great D in that game.
And they ref LeBron like Shaq. So we know he wouldn't go to the line that many times. And 18 free throws say he took an additional 8 or 9 shots (maybe and 1 or something). 3/26... hmmm. Yea no. But I promise if john Stockton and john starks guarded LeBron. There would NEVER be a 3 for 18... hersey hawkins... joe dumars... jeff hornacek, celtics guards? Stoooooopit
Dan majerle... who are these lockdown defenders??? And did you see the transition defense... and not to mention when there wasnt a foul committed that defense didn't look too intimidating. Js
B-EZ Listen 3/26? You don’t get how fouls work with shooting apparently
B-EZ Listen
Imagine saying this for LBJ when that man went passive with Barea/Terry/Kidd on him. That’s just one example.
This is a stupid argument about Jordan not being involved in one play. The problem is Jordan was involved in 30 other plays and lebron and 3.
So MJ got "saved" by his team in game 3 against the Knicks while he went 3 for 18. There are a bunch of these games. There is so much "luck" with stuff like this...
People are getting real butthurt about nick adding context to 90’s talent level lol
Normally Broussard is right on with his points…..but he’s not with this Knicks team.
The Bulls LOST PRIME MJ yet still went 7 games BARELY losing to those Knicks….they went 6 games with them the season before WITH PRIME MJ. They weren’t a great team whatsoever. At the absolute BEST they were a really good team a few seasons.
Nick Wrong! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
How is it a issue if he wanna gamble his money how is dat a issue ?? And plenty of players get snub from all stars every year so fck Thomas Jordan goat 🐐
Nick is correct about the competition that Jordan faced. The league was watered down by expansion and great players be spread out. He is also correct about the Knicks teams not being that good.
Coach Jon they hate positivism!! The 90’s weren’t that good!! 3 point line came up 2ft because they couldn’t score, today’s game they’re asking for it to be pushed back
For Jordan to be on top means that the competition had to be on bottom. They didn't superteam like LeBron did so each team had 1 to 2 stars. Knicks went to finals after Bulls. Magic didn't get a 6th ring because of Jordan. Two time defending champion Pistons got swept. Phoenix with MVP Barkley lost. Seattle crew with the Glove and The Reign man was defeated. Pacers - not that time. The Jazz defeated twice in the finals. No Finals went to past 6 games. The Bulls were dominant thus that is why you think they faced weak competiiton.
@@rd2783 If you want to say it like that the only reason why Lebron went to 9 finals so much was because he face weak competitions in the east. Imagine if he was in the western conference he would've only been to 3 finals appearance if you wan't to say it like that.
Do you statement is factually not true
Rick Duong the bulls were a super team!! LeBron left the heat, they didn’t make the playoffs!! Doesn’t sound like a super team to me, Jordan retired, and the bulls only lost 2 less games!! Jordan needed Phil and Tex triangle offense to be successful as he’s yet to smell a finals without Phil Jackson!! Jordan needed a system to thrive, lebron is the system!! The only player to win without a great coach!! Lakers had a team full of all stars and didn’t reach the finals until Phil Jackson came!! The 2004 Detroit Pistons had no hall of Famers just a great coach and beat a team full of hall of famers!! Players score points but it’s the gm and coach who wins championships!! Lebron james is a rare talent
BRON I RESPECT UR GREATNESS CUZ I SAW U MANY TIMES PLAYING LIVE! FROM GERMANY 2004 TILL CAVS VS DETROIT 2007 PLAYOFF'S FROM MONTE CARLO TO USA JUST TO SEE YOU WITH MY DAD. But right now u should be concern about Steph, KD and Kawhi cuz they keep winning in ur ERA. let alone Mj debate, ther was never a debate.all this Bs i Blame the media, lebron is losing fans around the world cuz of the media fanboy's.
Nick's watch is way too big for his wrist size. He needs to wear 36mm to 40mm sized watches.
Fire Nick wright
NICK LE BRICK cheerleader at it again.
I think it’d ridiculous that he gets bashed for not following a political agenda. Just because he didn’t want to campaign for a left winger … that’s his right.
What Nick and Chris and the worthless other guy failed to bring up during the suns finals topic was that even though Paxson hit the game winner, Jordan made every other field goal in the 4th quarter. NO OTHER BULLS’ PLAYER SCORED the last 12 minutes outside of Paxson and his game winning 3. Funny how that was left out by a so called serial numbers and FACTS analyst like a nick wright.
Great Scott that’s because Nick Wright has no idea what he’s talking about. He’s doing a great job of holding his crazy biases strong and staying on brand. This is what Skip Bayless and Skip have done their whole careers.
Explain how Lebrick wade bosh lost to Dirk and nobody Dallas then.
This guy is really pushing hard for that co host spot with nick
Sometimes a team no matter the players can just win....... look at the pistons that beat the lakers team that was stacked
Nick makes me sick ... every chance he gets to ride jock
Psst Nick Wright. That Knicks was a carbon copy of the Bad Boy Pistons. But you don’t want to see that though.
Nick Wrong just got swatted by Chris Broussard by bringing up the Dallas Mavericks hahahhaha, Nick Wrong got real salty hahahhaha
Broussard glazing jordan
That is literally a gambling addiction. Mike tripping. He's the definition of a sellout and an addict. Mike would lose his mind in today's world given all the things he went through in his career. "Social Media" would eat him alive.
Is this you LEBRON or better yet NICK WRIGHT is this your burner account
Nick needs to go man, he just shouts over Chris 😬 waste of time
is that the fckn weasel on the left? Kid never played a sport in his life or gets laid, guaranteed.
Not really.... more like "tickled" his off the court issues.....
Nick Wright is incredible...i mean, the Knicks teams that was 2-0 over Chicago was based full on invisble statue or undrafted people from the streets of New York...cmon, for him only LeBron EVER played against the most talented team ever ever ever in the world...how can you be there and do that job with this biased opinion...
Nick wright always says lebron james beat 73-9 warriors only because dray got suspended in game 6 that forced game 7 Jordan never let game go to 7 games or get swept once lebron james got swept 5 times in finals 3-6 Jordan 6-0 6 finals mvp
Nicki better not in his life discuss any black issues
Chris talks from both sides of his mouth alot of the time thats one reason I was glad when KD said what he said about him also he loves to act like he knows more tha he does remember Kawahi to the Lakers Clippers are out. lol!!!
Nick knows nothing about basketball. Please get him off the air. He is the most biased reporter and defends LBJ at all cost. He will do anything to protect LBJ's legacy. Get someone else who actually knows the history of NBA basketball.
NICK once again trying to change history by denying it was any good?
I don’t think the heartless will make it to the nba finals if the have played with those 90’s rugged Knicks in eastern finals… such a delusional…
That Knicks team was trash... they just fouled and played hard
Nick is so bad, the fs1 needs to get rid of him
Nick tripping.
Please listen to us. The regular people like us. Most of us don't want Nick talking about basketball no more. He can talk about other things but not basketball. He doesn't know.
Nick Wright is the most annoying person on tv or radio.
Nick wrong always try to minimize the player of the 90's i wish anybody will exposed this bronsexual show
This show is so much better without Chris carter. Much better vibe
Get off Nick, every media reporter is just as bad as the other. Chris was basically saying kawhi was going to the lakers... Wrong, The truth said he was better than D Wade... Wrong and many many more. Jordan fanboys are just as bad as bronsexuals, this needs to stop they are both amazing players in their respective eras. Jordan was the goat then, lebron is the goat now who cares about who was the best because they are both the best.
🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
nick wright lol what a annoying head to look at talking sports. imagine you were kobe and had this guy that looks like he had every allergy and never played a sport in his life hate on you from a position of superiority
Nick doesn't know basketball. Not sure how he got this job. Please stop!
Dan majerle... who are these lockdown defenders??? And did you see the transition defense... and not to mention when there wasnt a foul committed that defense didn't look too intimidating. Go back and look at the tapes man. Watch the games in the entirety. And u give me a name of some players that from those days that are better than KD, Giannis, guards that are athletic like Russell Westbrook. And the talent was so spread out. And they were ALL smoking and drinking. So all the athletes were at a disadvantage. Like. The league now is talent based. Period.
