Hand down this is the best sports show out today! You guys are awesome!
Durant and Draymond need to squash the beef and join forces on the Warriors again with steph klay and wiggins
"No Disrespect, But I think my teammates are trash"
🤣😂 Whenever someone says "no disrespect" here comes the disrespect.
He said that ? Lol no way
@@jamaaldaynitelong8367 🤣 🤣 on God!!
🤣🤣you gotta love being able to say no disrespect, and then blatantly disrespect someone
@@FaceFamous That's the hood disclaimer. Like "excuse/pardon me" then bumping someone...as long as the coupon is presented before checkout you good🤣😂!!
I hate when someone says it's no disrespect but proceeds to disrespect.
Its constructive criticism and giving people a heads up on the criticism
No disrespect but I think that's stupid
Not disrespect if it’s true
@@MannyParadisee What if you was on that team and KD tells the media you're not good enough to play with him?
Whaaaat, it's great - it's early warning. Brace yourself.
153 POINTS TO THE KINGS?
NOW THAT'S ABSURD!
🥺
I don’t think Kings are a meme this year. Not contenders, but I could see first or second round of the playoffs
Wym the kings have been fairly good. Fox is finally becoming a superstar, a all star big in sabonis, and their role players have played exceptionally well the entire season
Kings can score lol
🤣🤣💯
In regulation too
It's been 4 years since KD went to the Net's and Brousaard will still say "give them a chance" lol
He is delusional
Y’all love to act like he played that first year, it’s been two years, two post seasons. 1 of which majority of basketball fans agree they would’ve won the championship if not for injuries and the 2nd was disrupted by a lack of continuity, the vaccine mandate, and harden forcing his way out. Y’all engage in such disingenuous conversation and it shows your just a hater lmao
@@ColeSpeaks103 yep keep coming up with excuses he gonna retire before yall get done with the excuses 😆
between the clippers and the nets, ion trust broussard anymore
@@ColeSpeaks103 😂😂😂 EXCUSES EXCUSES
Funny how KD was saying the environment around Lebron is toxic while playing in a great franchise like the warrior. Now he is realizing how it ain’t easy to carry a team by yourself and how much patience and leadership it takes. I wonder what Skip is gone say about this. Wanting your coach and GM fired and now calling out your teamates.
That part.
Funny but he's wasn't lying. Fanboy media is blaming Westbrook for lebron failures
@@andrebritten Bron is factually playing better than Westbrook. AD has to be the powerhouse behind the Lakers. Lebron almost 40 and still giving you all star production.
@@andrebritten don't even compare lebron to Kevin Durant lebron is a leader not a follower an every team lebrons been on since he won his first title in Miami helping Dewayne wade win his second title in Miami years after shaq left lebron was the main reason that team won a title, kyrie hit that one magic shot but lebron was the main reason the Cavilers were in a position to win the title, Westbrook hasn't contributed to any team he has been on winning a title, an he played with Kevin Durant an James Harden in Oklahoma until James Harden left an went to Houston, then Russell Westbrook continued to play with Kevin Durant for several more years in oklahoma after James Harden left for Huston, until Kevin Durant got tired of playing with Russell Westbrook an won 2 titles with golden state, than Russell Westbrook played again with James Harden in Huston how did that work out, now he's playing with lebron James an Anthony Davis an still isnt bringing that team any closer to winning a title, so don't even put Russell Westbrook in the same breath as lebron James who is the main reason an has won a title on every team he's been on, an at his age is still playing at a very high level, haters just want to hate but lebron James career an accomplishments peaks for itself an he is going to go down in the NBA hall of fame as one of greatest basketball players who ever stepped foot in the NBA right out of high school.
KD wasn’t calling Lebron toxic himself. He was referring to the media around him. The quote on quote “fan boys” that cover him. Which is kinda hypocritical cause the media that surrounds KD is also toxic maybe even surpassing the media the covers Bron.
“No disrespect, but how can anyone possibly expect me to win with these bums?” - KD the great team leader
🤣🤣
Very Kobe-esque
Are they not bums? 😂
@@dayvercetti4156 Kyrie, harris, KD, Claxton, warren (when fit) is a very decent lineup by any stretch of the imagination. Compare with Steph, Klay, Draymond, Looney and Wiggins, Player to player not much difference.
@@rfz2472 I can’t agree nor disagree with that considering we haven’t seen that. As of rn, this team got too many holes lol
Can we stop & give a standing ovation to Westbrook 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 take every criticism to the chin for the past 6yrs & never threw one teammate under the bus
Hes the one that...nvm
He has zero accountability and is a fragile ego maniac. Different doesn't mean better. He's worse than kd
@@xavierb9061 🤣🤣🤣
@@xavierb9061 nah fr say it cause he ain't been watching basketball
Amen
Complaining about coaching and being held accountable then you got Kyries saying we don't need a coach..kinda backfired
And he agreed when Kyrie said on his podcast
Well he said that 3 years ago. I’m sure you said some things you take back
@@rconway1641 did not say that in public
@@Curtis69213 well yeah your not a celebrity
@@rconway1641 okay hun 😘
God dam, fox have found their best crew. Wright and Broussard is the best dynamic duo out there.
Bru funny asf
Them high squeaky voices though lol
Nick needs to give up the Die Hard villain look, though.
@@jovalleau can't take Nick's look seriously
Love this show. The chemistry is real between these 2-3 including Wildes.
KD had no chill when he talked about the supporting cast. Was more brutal than that split ankle breaker on Daniel Gafford last week.
That end part of your comment got me dead at work 💀💀💀
😂😂 f
That was mad disrespectful, he just destroyed what's left of their team spirit.
@@doubleeph8920 Spirit or no spirit that team is going nowhere. KD might just be laying the groundwork for another trade request.
He speaking facts he’s not saying there trash just sayin they need better players nd kyrie needs to be back
Wildes is a national treasure
On god
Facts on facts
"No disrespect, but the rest of my team is trash, can't win with them...why am i not a good leader?" Bruh 🤣 🤣 🤣 this guy
Exactly...He's just weird, helluva player but weird.
Should’ve just stayed on the greatest team of all time😂
@@fitgerald11 He never gonna admit he regret that
@@The.Arbiter85 he won’t but the people know lol
No disrespect but we all know they are trash.
"My legacy is Cam Thomas." - Kevin Durant 😂
LMFAOOOOOOO 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Talk about throwing your teammates under the bus. "Look at our starting lineup... " WAY TO LEAD!
He isn't wrong. They can't compete for a title
@@SpiritualSchmuck that's not how you talk about teammates. Calling his squad bums then taking showers in the same locker room?
@@mycitysucks8096 he never said they were bums. Just not enough to compete for a title. That being said sometimes people want to prove others wrong
Anyone else seeing Nick going full Katt Williams with the hair and suit?! 😂
Hair is 🔥
“Luxurious” - Katt Wiliams -
Steve Nash replied to KD: "We talkin' about practice? You want more practice?"
You supposed to be the franchise player, and we sitting here talking bout practice. Now how silly is that?
@@tbates4938 as a lifetime sixers/AI fan, im loving this lol
KD can’t drive the bus…Barkley was right 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just not a leader like bron,steph and akumpo
The bus on fire 🔥 😂😂😂
Horrible bus.
He didn’t do it with Westbrook, Harden, and Ibaka either. KD can’t do it without a Klay, Curry, or Draymond. He’s not a team leader. He’s just a great player that can get his own. Will not carry a franchise.
Fact
Steve Nash smiling now that he cant be blamed for giving up 153 points to the Kings of all teams
Steve Nash was a horrible coach still. Never laid down the law
Steve Nash would’ve gave up 200 points
Kings are actually good tho lol
@@bigfendii77 lie again. when did BKY give up 153 under his tenure?? i’ll wait
@Mark look at their defense since he’s been a coach. Also look at their offense, they don’t run plays, just iso
Man I can’t wait until Nash writes a book on his time as the nets coach 😂
Kyrie tried to realign his chakras for him and showed up to work with a toothbrush mustache. Steve Nash tried his best and protected us from things we’ll never know
@@Augrills Bro wtf😭
KD seems at peace because all the expectations are gone. He can blame his failure in BK on Kyrie, Harden, Nash, the GM and the owner.
Congrats Sacramento Kings!!! Great win!!! 7-6 after starting the season 0-4. Light the BEAM!!!!!!!
Beam team baby!!!!!
Suns are the real loser for matching indianna contract for ayton lol they missed out on kd
Wildes with the "but he said no disrespect" 😂🤣😂
KD without going to GSW is not far off being the rebirth of Melo at the Knicks
Brous face when Nick brought up the luka point lmaoo
as a warriors fan, sactown is really good. they are playoff bound with how there playing. GO harrison barnes, we havent forgoten.
Remembering Barnes was pure class. Salute, fam
Just trying to get back like you guys did in 2013-14! Want that same success. Well dreaming for it lol
Wildes got me with that Michael Jordan bit. Hahaha
This show never misses
All hits no misses
@@Tunechi65 he jus said that
@@bagchaser8392 facts 😂
Nick great take wow that Luka comparison was crazy ..good
7:35 Chris lowkey flammed Sam 💀
cmon KD, you could’ve just roasted your supporting cast on a burner account. No need to do it publicly😂
Y'all remember when Stephen A. Smith stated Kyrie held practices after practice? Makes sense lol
Nick: “GET SOMETHING FOR BEN SIMMONS?!” 😂😂😂
“A sports psychologist”
Simmons is done once the Nets rid themselves of him. Watch!
@@davidmurray6176 LOL who is gonna defend for them?? 153 points given up to the KINGS
@@Christian-xr7hc bro NOT HIM LIKE TF THEY GAVE UP 153 with HIM
@@jonsno3688 that’s my point. if they gave up 153 WITH him, just imagine what they’ll give up without him
12:30 something for Ben Simmons made me spit my water out 😂
😂😂😂💀
NO
Nick Wright looks so funny with hair 😂😂😂😂💀💀
He looks like the doll from saw frfr
The Luka comparison hit hard
Weird sad moment to officially hear “Jordan, Magic, LeBron, Bird, Isaiah talk about winning”. Seeing LeBron now no longer a peer but a legend of the past. Fully into a new era now.
Wildes stole Broussard's upset alert😂😂😂
The more KD speaks.. the more I understand why Kawhi doesn’t.
KD is just weird...Generational talent but 2 beers short of a six pack.
You just don't understand him because you dumbo Retardikkkan! Hate is you, can't understand pinky.
Why do you say that? Do you KNOW him?
That is so perfectly said!!!
lol just read his actual comments rather than listen to nick who *obviously* has a kd agenda.
“the nets have changed” 🤣🤣🤣
This is such a good show. I'm still not paying for cable though.
I think KD's legacy at this point isn't about individual ring count. I think he'll be remembered as the most skilled 7 footer ever and key part of arguably the most talented team of all time with GS.
Lol wildes is too funny. Love this group
Kobe in the same situation: “Okay, the team is trash. Guess I have to drop 80 tonight.”
You can’t tell someone how to feel, the whole conversation is ridiculous
KD left a great home ( the Warriors) for the Nets.
“bRoOkLyN wOn tHe tRaDe” lmfaoooo.
“He said no disrepect”
Ben Simmons barely played competitive basketball last year. Send him down to the G League to get him reps and back up to playing at game speed. Ben is a shell of himself right now, he needs to build up his confidence.
You expect them to send him to the g league when he still making max contact money?
@@kingmichaeln1 Ben is losing all “trade” value the way he is playing right now. Clubs do send veterans down to get back into playing shape after injuries for a couple of games. The Nets can spin a story in their favor but this version of Ben is trash and he should not be out on the court.
He done brah
@@terrencereid7015 name the last DPOY and multi all star that was demoted to the G league 😂 he’s done. D-O-N-E. Zion and Dame don’t need to be demoted to the G league after missing last year
Keep hoping bro this guy doesn't want to improve his why babysitting a big guy send to Australia
(So it wasn't Steve Nash's fault. Nobody saw that coming!)
This show and undisputed all I watch now
Tim dunkan was humble but he was definitely a vocal leader. His team listened to him and respected him and he had a lot of influence. Tim Duncan would have called a practice.
He just wants the best for Cam Thomas - cos Cam Thomas is a future star
I Thought Nick Was Going To Bring Up KD Not Speaking Up For Kyrie At The End🤣😂 Went Strait To Ben Simmons
You think Durant plays sad romantic music thinking of Steph Curry at night? Worst mistake he ever made
That’s why big players shouldn’t sign more than 2+1 at a time
Kings put up video game numbers last night.
Menh Nick's hair just flowing😂😂😂
It should be Andre Roberson the one saying KD really helped me with my confidence which may help KDs legacy. Not someone tooting their own horn.
Nah you define your own legacy not what someone else says about you because you put in the work, not the person critiquing you
@@andrebritten says the guy watching a TH-cam snip of people critiquing athletes.
I thought the same thing lol
Two words, "dumpster fire".
Somehow the only thing more directionless than Net’s management is Nick’s hair
Yeah, that Andre Roberson confidence really took his career far! Thanks KD!
Passion is almost gone.
KD is saying stop giving me Jordan Kobe expectations I’m cool with being Allan Houston!
Real talk and there’s really wrong with that. Plus throw Lebron in that mix sir
@@Ril014 when you’re the caliber of player KD is, there is most definitely something wrong w that. y’all would be killing LeBron had he come out and said something like that
Nick really committed to this hairstyle. I ain't mad at it.
crazy how i was going to write "it must be fun to play basketball at 6'11".. but then Ben Simmons clearly hates basketball..
What does Wildes say under his breadth to Broussard about the first part of KD's quote ? i totally missed it..
He had passion for the rookie of the year in his 2nd year with the nba.
💀
3 words - Bron Could Never
Good convo here
How’s that Nets without kyrie take holding up Nick lmao
“Winning Happiness”
God I love this show
I know what KD did in golden state was special but man okc kd was so vintage I really wish we saw what happened if he just held it down there. They were close every year, it’s not like dame in Portland kd definitely could’ve got one in okc plus his legacy back then was building up. Everyone loved okc EVERYONE.
WestBrick would have lost it for him
Wildes got me.
I’ve never seen someone who hates playing basketball as much as Ben Simmons.
Broussard - Nets can defend when they need to
Kings - 👀 🤣😂😭
How is insinuating the starting line up can't win even with a top 10 player disrespecting them? That's a huge compliment. Now Luka, with his starting lineup, always being supportive and taking the blame himself, now that's disrespectful. KD did the professional thing clearly
"I'm bad with numbers"
No kidding.
Get em Nick..get Broussard 😂
At 3:30 , Nick said he isn’t good with numbers. Lol 😂
One of the best shows ..oh and im always down for some ben slander
fax! lets go sixers!
12:30 who wants Ben Simmons and his big contract? 😂
Not one team in the NBA. Maybe a European team but unlikely as there is 50 players overseas better than he is. Fact!
Nick's hair been ON FIRE this week. Looking like a skinny brown haired Thor
Y’all killed Bron for saying they was top heavy but ok with KD name dropping the starting five 😐
Frfr the nets blew it trading levert allen and dinwiddie for harden that squad was fire b4 harden got there
He pulled a James Harden "we're not that good" comment to force his way out.
“Utah route” = better players over bigger names
So much respect here. They tell it like it is! Brou especially
Kd: I want to do drills
Nash (COACH) : no, we have other stuff to work on
Paying 3 max deals isnt a way to win unless you can do it like GSW did where they still had 30 mill to build a team. All free agent stars when you have 3 max contracts means you don't have the salary cap to make a truly competitive team unless all 3 are true a-1 stars. Lakers feeling it now with not having one decent mid range contract to get a shooter
can’t determine what he wants to talk about - he’s just a humble guy fully talented
Not the “next year nets” retooling again😂
I don't care what anyone says. When you start calling out guys by name, that means you don't care anymore. Sean Marks has to trade KD. Now.
KD is talking a whole lotta garbage.
If I was any of those teammates that he named, he'll be hearing "names" from me. There's NO WAY that those dudes can stay quiet and at the same time, play side by side wit someone that said, in an indirect way, that they're nobodies.
My favorite part of Broussard's delusional nets rants is Nick's outbursts reactions and wildes random chuckles I love this show
KD and LeBron have different personalities and play styles. LeBron thrives in situations which the organization and team caters to him and his play style. He needs to be surrounded by shooters to succeed & he's played with equally talented teams if not more. Kevin Durant at this point of his career is not trying to grind or carry a franchise like he was in his 20's - especially considering his injury history.
I agree, but the amount of money he got out of the contract is at least worth "grind or carry." LIke, if you gonna get paid a ton of money, you better prove your worth.
Y’all must of just started watching basketball… Lebron has thrived with nothing at all multiple years. KD is just a extremely talented roll player and a straight crybaby. All superstars are leaders sick of him crying and complaining. Btw those 2 rings count for nothing just buy a brush and play basketball.
@@timothymcwright3922 Nothing??? For the first 7 years, YES.....for the past 13 he's had GRAVY....KD, yes, he's always had talent with him.
Are we talking about the same guy who petitioned to get rid of Kenny Adkinson be he didnt like how hard Kenny made the team practice?
