The Nba Draft was unbearable. I turned my tv on mute. Espn quality has fallen off a cliff. Espn anchors are unlikeable & seem to be unqualified for the job.
In my opinion paying college players has/will kill college sports. Not amateurs anymore and playing for love of college and game. Now it’s inequality down the line. 1 million qb and 30k center instead of all being student athletes.
Compared to the NFL the NBA draft is a joke. This team drafts this guy for this team and trades this guy to this team for future draft picks. What a disaster.
I didn’t even know the draft was last night. The sport is dying. Its shelf life is limited. Basketball is uninteresting. There is nobody that can save it.
They at had it 4 so they could have it before presidential debate. I think this was first time nba split draft into 2 days. Nba league pass is real popular globally
@@michaelspecks7053 these sports leagues spend all day trying not to piss off the wokes , they aren't even their fans, they don't watch sports. It's insane. Get back to your fan base, that's what matters
This is what happens when the "experts" focus on only 4 or 5 big market teams, regardless of how successful those teams are. They discount the rest of the league as a farm system for their teams.
20:58 Same thing happened to UDub in the Natty. Going into the Texas game our players were talking their ish, they had that swag, they were talking about about WHEN they get to the Natty, they played with confidence and outside of a flukey final 5 minutes, controlled the game. Come Natty time, no players chirping, team completely disinterested, no in-game adjustments, they looked like they were about as excited to be there as a Friday night walkthrough in a hotel ballroom. There's zero doubt in my mind that deboer had a foot out the door, had told select coaches, word leaked to the team leaders and the team cohesion melted away to where 11 individuals on the field were playing for self instead of the team. But instead the reactionary narrative about Michigan's supposed 'juggernaut', 'buzzsaw' of a defense will forever be the takeaway for that game and season at large.
They say when everybody is buying you sell, when everybody is selling you buy. Was hoping the Lakers would get Edey and take it back old school. Especially with an older Lebron and AD they could slow the pace down, do the opposite of what the game is now and shock the NBA. In the NFL, a passing league, the Ravens, Niners and Lions, 3 teams in the conference championships all had top 5 rushing offenses. The only one that didn't was the Chiefs who have Patrick Mahomes.
An issue with this draft is there is no elite shooter scorer rebounder passer or great wing defender....it's just a bunch of dudes who can be role players it seems...
You just described the modern average nba player. Knect is a scorer and that was his job at Tenn. Was he pushed by coach to play better D? Yes but that’s in college not the nba. The nba isn’t real basketball it’s entertainment basketball. They get to travel, foul and friending on the popularity of the player out their shoulder in defenders chest and not offensive foul.
I didn't watch the draft but loved listening to Michael Lombardi wrecking the coverage this AM on the Pat McAfee Show. Trevor Bauer went on ESPN on a Sunday night broadcast and called out the league for allowing the sticky stuff (which caused the crackdown that ensued) - that's why he isn't being signed....
What I found interesting was with all the talent in the USA, top 2 picks and 3 of the first 6 were from France. So much for putting America first even in sports. Complete bullshit. I would rather have seen Bronny James drafted #1
I agree. Should be Americans first. Europe players get taught better not though and learn the fundamentals and use their bigs properly. It’s messed up USA don’t teach properly

Stephen A Smith is unbearable and he js just terrible. They had nobody on there who knew anything about the players
Coached at the high school level for 25 years and the D3 level for 5 years and I believe AAU has killed basketball

Lol OK Boomer. AAU has existed for what 40 years?
@@hermanreid not anywhere near like it is today.

ESPN stinks
Disney ruins everything
I didn’t even know the draft was last night. The sport is dying. Its shelf life is limited. Basketball is uninteresting. There is nobody that can save it.
I actually think the NBA is more popular in Europe
Yeah I didn’t know it was draft night as well. Basketball is kind of phony.
Neither did i

Look at the contracts. They’re making money somewhere . It’s losing US fans but they will let Americans pay for their palaces to play in
Worst nba draft coverage ever lmao 😂💯
The espn had the worst talk ever they hire a bunch of woman and unqualified anchors and have there actual experts are not on the show
Adam Silver is weak
The nba draft has turned into the NHL draft
I hadn’t thought of it like that. Really good analogy.
@@michaelspecks7053 thanks I really appreciate that u rock
So we now know who runs the Lakers and it ain’t JJ Redick! Bronny James wouldn’t even make the Connecticut team!🤣🤣🤣
Here the prolem with so many playing the G- league and over seas you dont get to get to see them like u did when they all played College
its now the King James reality show. Il take the basketball of the 80's and 90's all day long
Very funny comment. The sad part is you’re absolutely correct

Day 2 was unwatchable..
Bauer needs to sue!
Yes! Specifically the Dodgers!
Nobody has a right to a Sport's Contract.....if nobody wants him than that is the case. I mean you or I can sue the MLB then.
@cmagtpose2792 he was released because of a false me too and u think that's that same as reg joe sueing jus to sue?
Yes he does. They didn’t treat Deshaun Watson or dak prescott like that when they were accused. The gold diggers woman needs to be punished
We know who's wares the pants in Stafford household
This is what happens when the "experts" focus on only 4 or 5 big market teams, regardless of how successful those teams are. They discount the rest of the league as a farm system for their teams.
Bauer needs to Sue and win that lawsuit! MLB is not right how they treated him

Also more n more foreigners r going to replace americans
Do u guys know about the NFL having to pay 12billion dollars to commercial and consumers of NFL Sunday ticket.
Good basketball player are not going to college where they learn to play better
Ya they need to so the get better coaching
On brand.
ESPN is trash now because of Disney
You guys clearly don't know anything about Knecht. He can't pass, rebound, set screens and is a legendary horrible defender. Just as clueless as ESPN
You just described the modern average nba player. Knect is a scorer and that was his job at Tenn. Was he pushed by coach to play better D? Yes but that’s in college not the nba. The nba isn’t real basketball it’s entertainment basketball. They get to travel, foul and friending on the popularity of the player out their shoulder in defenders chest and not offensive foul.
Why don't you ask Terry Francona about Bauer and how he was just a disaster in the clubhouse....he sent his ass packing day he decided to show him up.
I didn't watch the draft but loved listening to Michael Lombardi wrecking the coverage this AM on the Pat McAfee Show.
Trevor Bauer went on ESPN on a Sunday night broadcast and called out the league for allowing the sticky stuff (which caused the crackdown that ensued) - that's why he isn't being signed....
Zach Edy will be the best player in this terrible draft. Boys international NBA will struggle with his size and weight
What I found interesting was with all the talent in the USA, top 2 picks and 3 of the first 6 were from France. So much for putting America first even in sports. Complete bullshit. I would rather have seen Bronny James drafted #1
Yup that def taking opportunities from American players.
I agree. Should be Americans first. Europe players get taught better not though and learn the fundamentals and use their bigs properly. It’s messed up USA don’t teach properly
So more or less a lot of tall black people just got rich.
lol calling Edey and Knecht the best players in the draft is completely laughable. Ever heard of the back to back champs uconn huskies?
AAU is hurting Americans basketball players and I believe G league coaches suck too
The Lakers will suck as long as LeBron James is getting significant playing time.
We knew 20 mins before the draft
Next year draft will be better..ace bailey is him....dylan harper is a problem...cooper will be good...
Come on Astros sign him!!
They were too dumb to realize that the NBA draft was on at 4pm because of the Presidential Debate.
I'd be easy throwing stones from a glass house. Your low view total doesn't justify your salary.
Tell the Cubs to try and get him back in.
DEI persons at espn make mistakes
Pres debate is tonight.
So
