That's true, but knowing yourself also means regulating your environment. It's like if you're a recovered coke addict, it wouldn't be smart to live in Miami and rely on will power.
I agree with Jay on that too. I also think that Perk is right bc the old saying it takes a village. I think a group of wise men mentoring him goes a long way
I think it may be less about what you get back and more about the potential disaster you avoid, it’s very interesting. 4 first founders, Tyler hero n Kyle lowry(contract to come off the books) for Ja and a throw in, it’s interesting
Actually I agree with Jay Williams and Kendrick Perkins, Ja Morant have to take responsibility for himself and his own actions, as for as Kendrick Perkins, he's right too, because most of Ja Morant's enablers are in Memphis
Send Bradley Beal, James Harden, Dame Lillard, Ja to MIAMI - every ESPN scenario. These people make the laziest answers, who gives them a platform to do this.
Doc rivers has never gotten a young superstar to mold to his way. He’s always gotten superstars when they we’re already developed so that can’t be what he meant.
I listened to the whole doc rivers podcast.. he didn't talk about harden that much and definitely didn't disrespect him.. they took a SMALL clip and did a whole segment on it lol. That's media for you today
He’s so overrated. He had CP3, Griffin, and DeAndre Jordan in their prime He had Kawhii and PG He had Embiid and Harden All that talent and he can’t make it past the 2nd round
Yea it is a party city but Ja is going to be held accountable to be a professional on that team he won’t be allowed to do whatever he wants with Pat Riley
No one here listened to the bill Simmons interview, Doc said that because harden was obviously more mobile as he was young, it had nothing to do with conditioning, it had nothing to do with teaching accountability. James took a back seat for most of his tenure in the Sixers and it didn’t work out so suddenly he didn’t listen to Doc. That’s nonsense I hate the way the media bend the way people view James. Embiid played bad too but he’s getting no smoke. Miss me with that First take needs more knowledgeable individuals
Bro hardens style of play is not winning basketball period end of story. He’s only valuable when he has the ball on offense. That’s it. He’s terrible off the ball now and always has been. That’s what doc was saying and he wasn’t lying. And he’s a quitter!!!
Bro harden won 2 games single handily in the Celtics series. Yeah he Underperformed in that game 7. But he did his part. Embiid, The mvp !!! Didn’t do his part. Crazy how all the blame is on harden
Remember a few years back when ESPN had Ryan Hollins on and he would just say the CRAZIEST sh!t imaginable? I feel like thats ALL Perk does now. He just says Outlandish things followed by Carry On
It’s getting old other players getting scapegoated while Embiid remains immune to criticism. We’re all aware Harden isn’t a great playoff performer, but Embiid is just as bad as him, I’d argue worse than him. His decline between regular season to post season numbers is greater, he’s never made a conference finals and only 7 players in post season history average more turnovers per 100 dribbles. Countless series he’s not turned up and it’s always someone else’s fault.
Fans are killing Embid more than Harden. Embid played bad but Harden played significantly worse especially after leaks before the playoffs he wanted to go to Houston.
harden is the reason that series was even competitive embiid has been getting eliminated by tatum in the playoffs since tatum was a rookie w an 0-4 series record against tatum’s celtics it’s all on #21 but player empowerment will keep him pacified
@@Ghostkilla773 First off, fans on the internet are not the same as the NBA media, who spin the narratives. My negative assessment of Joel’s run is meaningless. Former coaches and every pundit under the sun on a televised platform blaming one player is another matter. Second of all, harden won 2 games, embiid did nothing. Embiid was ineffective all playoffs and no, harden wasn’t significantly worse, he was equally poor. But he is open to criticism while Embiid in the eyes of the networks remains immune. This isn’t a unique phenomenon either. The year Jimmy was traded, where Kawhi hit “the luckiest shot ever” I can make the argument embiid was their 3rd or maybe 4th best player. Butler was their star, while embiid averaged 17 points on sub 40% shooting with 4 turnovers a game. No one talks about that. They blindly say, Simmons was the early issue, now it’s harden. No…there have been plenty of series where HE has been the choker. He’s all time bad at ball handling, only 7 players averaging more turnovers per 100 dribbles. And he averages 22 points on 39% shooting in elimination games. He’s a choker but only Harden seems to get tarred with that brush,
If I’m not mistaken. Harden had to put up 40 in order for them to win 2 of 3 games they did win. How is that the problem? I think Doc wanted Harden to be passive in game 7 but he actually needed to be the man. They gone always choose players over coaches. Especially ones who known to loose 🤷🏾♂️
because small markets are usually inept organizations that don't know how to put players in the best position to succeed (San Antonio is the exception not the rule).
@@pdx816 silly me for thinking that the fact that the vast majority of NBA championships were won big and medium markets. Sorry you live in the middle of no where. I’m sorry your team is an economic drain on the NBA. I’m sorry your state is an economic drain on the country.
Ja can live the life he wants, he just needs to hire a social media team that curates his content and disables his accounts and his boy’s accounts of live streaming capabilities. His friends should sign a clause that says anytime Ja is recorded live stream they get sued. Problem solved. What we don’t know won’t hurt us.
Doc/James never got a long it was more telling when James said my relationship is just okay with him. ultimately Harden is going to do what's best for himself this summer either go back to Philly or take more money and go to Houston.
James Harden never had a coach teach him accountability? Really Perk? Was he held accountable under Sam Brooks, when he was coming off the bench? What about under Kevin Mchale when he benched him, in the fourth quarter of a close out game against the Clippers. Perk is acting like, Dantoni is the only coach that ever coached James.
Thank you for making these videos. I am a baseball fan at heart, but I do follow the NBA during playoff times. The only thing I have heard about Ja Morant has been the negative off-the-court activities. I've heard of James Harden but didn't know the dynamic of the relationship with Doc River.
The Harden segment is pretty one sided. They didnt mention how Harden averaged 8 assist that series, lead then nba in assist or took a 15 million paycut so the sixers could get more help. but some how 'he is a selfish ball hog who quit on his team.' He is just Doc's scape goat.
@@jayegeecorporate8788 the 40 year old who dropped 40 lol. I feel he has addressed this before since leaving Houston but he does not want to be the number 1 option. He can still be a very useful player on most teams so I wouldn't say he is."
@@ppunch7050So if you can’t come up with a new joke, that means you’re not the funny guy you think you are if you can only recycle old jokes, and you should just leave a normal comment. Simple.
Jaywill was clearly raised in a two-parent home in the middle of the suburbs somewhere because he's crazy if he thinks that the big homies aren't out here looking for Morant. Use their services to protect him and now he's in in the only way out is exactly what Park said.
I know Perk cited “Heat Culture” as the reason a move to Miami would be good… but what does that make “Grizzly Culture”?? Two very similar team identities in my opinion. This has 100% to do with Ja holding himself accountable with his actions and who he surrounds himself with. For Perk’s rationale to make sense, he should’ve said they should send him to Utah or Oklahoma City or a boring town like that.
Perk 100 percent right!!! These people don't know and don't care about what's going on in them Memphis streets. They on some shut up and dribble b.s. The man can't dribble if he dead!!!
I’ve said this for the past 6-7 years. James hardens style of play is not winning a championship. He’s too ball dominant and over dribbles, doesn’t know how to play off the ball and isn’t a good perimeter defender. That’s not winning basketball. Kobe even said it himself. Perk was one of the main one’s talking about harden and Embiid being a such a dominant dynamic duo when harden first got to Philly. I knew this wasn’t gonna amount to a ring.
Why are they defending Doc rivers???? He said James harden doesnt pass the ball... He averages 8 assist in the Celtics series and lead the league in assist! Embiid got hurt and James had to drop 40!!!! Embiid came back and offensively dropped the ball and for some reason its on James Harden to both score and pass the ball more??? Jay said "this brings up James Harden's commitment"... Does he not remember James harden took a 15 MILLION paycut to the sixers could get the help they need. Nobody else took a paycut! Doc rivers has said lob city was never going to win a ring, but will rave about his coaching success if its something like DeAndre Jordan becoming all defense. He threw the blame on Ben simmons when it should have been a home run question and destroyed Ben's confidence and trust. He is now throwing harden under the bus... He is apparently a player's coach but I dont see it. If Perk wasnt on the 08 celtics Im sure he would be saying Doc and Harden are to blame.
they say all that shade on Harden, but how did Sixxers win Celtics without Embiid? they played the Houston Harden game, NOT the Doc Rivers plays which were pretty garbage tbh Doc has dropped every big 7 game series in every team now... let's say Game 6 LeBron was an anomaly... he blew it with Lob City Clippers, he blew it with an even better team after... and tbh Harden ran all the plays Doc wanted and he didn't play selfish iso ball which he clearly could've when Embiid came back.... so honestly it wasn't James Harden's fault
@@SuperFelix05 check Miami starts, there starts during the season,he won't cure that himself, the guy is not depressed now, he's just doing foolish things
James harden is a GENERATIONAL CHOKE ARTIST 😂😂😂😂 James Harden disappears when u need him the most. Mindset matters just as much as talent, and harden is just MENTALLY WEAK, the same story every year with this guy
Doc Rivers is not a good coach 🤷🏼♂️ he got traded by the magic for….? Yes he won 1 championship in Boston but that’s it. He got ran out of LA and know he got fired by Philly 🤷🏼♂️ both really talented teams
Why would Houston want Harden back? he quit on them . Then quit on Brooklyn then quit on philly . As for ja what a dumb take by Perkins . He needs to get rid of bad ppl like a addict in recovery . His crew will go with him where ever he goes . So it isn't the place hes at . It's the ppl in his circle.
Doc never takes responsibility. He always blames the players or team for their failures. He did it with multiple clippers teams . He did with harden . And the results speak for themselves.
To be fair, he had Harden and CP3. Two known playoff chokers who haven't done anything with or without him. He did win a chip when he didnt have chokers
@@deionn4 Embiid, Ben simmons, Blake griffin, jj reddick, Kawhi, paul george, etc. Lets just call everyone on all the multiple allstar teams he has had chokers. It clearly cant be the coach. He has that ONE ring with 3 all time top 75 players on the roster.
@@deionn4 jj has had bad playoff performances as well... but the point is, Doc had the talent a lot of the time and cant seem to get a team over the hump unless that team has 3 all time top 75 players. He has been in positions to coach and GM and still couldnt get it done. and He is happily willing to put the blame on everyone else without taking anr responsibilty.
@@Firefenex1996 i mean, he can't play the game. Did Harden not look scared in that final game? Did Embiid not fail to produce his mvp stat line? His players are typically players that do well in the regular season and shrink in the playoffs. Is he great? No. But he's not bad.
I guess what Perk was saying is that Ja needs to go to Miami so that he can leave most, if not all, of his crew behind. If you need guidance, structure, and discipline, you go to Miami. But I'm not sure if Miami has the pieces to trade for Ja. Because this is different from the Beal and Lillard situation. Portland will probably do Lillard a favor, and the Wizards want to Beal off the books. Memphis wants to keep Ja, I think.
Every single time a potential, or just a disscussed player trade comes up as a talking point, Perk is all in on trading them lol. Doesnt matter who it is, what team, or what situation; he says trade em!! Give these players some time to play with one another and grow together big man...😅
As a 76ers fan, get rid of him. And Houston isn’t taking him as if he could t deal w Doc keeping him in check, then he def isn’t going to be happy w Ime (and Ime isn’t going anywhere anytime soon).
The James Harden hate is outrageous. That man won them 2 games (1 without Embiid). Yet Doc and Embiid had to execute their 'game plan' to lose the series. Now Doc wants to blame Harden, the NBA assist leader? How can he do it by "not giving up the ball"? How about just admit you don't have the ability to draw plays?
The little success they got has him not focused on hoops. He needs a reset with himself. Ja says he's elite but this rarely happens to the very special players. They're far too commited to the game
Jay talkin bout do we want harden back HE CANE UP BIG THE FIRST 2 GAME CUZ EMBIID CANT STAY HEALTHY embiid was so committed to the mvp as soon as he got ts he quit on top of that look at the box score for game 6 and 7 what help did harden and embiid really have. Please tell me.
Condolences to JWill over the passing of his mom. May the memories of her sustain him and the lessons she taught make him his best self. 🫀🫀

Ja's scenery has NOTHING to do with his problems. It's HIMSELF, and the ppl he surrounds himself with. Changing scenery will do nothing for him.

Dang Jay & KP both have good points tho! Hmmmm... change of atmosphere & he'll bring those old habits with him if he doesn't fix it right now... 🤔
I wouldn’t say “nothing” but I get your point

Self accountability is lost with this generation…. It’s everyone else’s fault but mine
I agree with Jay on that too. I also think that Perk is right bc the old saying it takes a village. I think a group of wise men mentoring him goes a long way
Players are so entitled nowadays because of the money they making and honestly most aren’t even as good as they are being paid
Doc for sure needs some self accountability
And if it's not their fault too they pull the mental health card like it's some get out of jail free card.
Yes I am responsible for everything that happens in my life... So umm Ja!
What about the fact that Miami has absolutely nothing to send back to Memphis in return? It's a proposed trade that could never happen.
You would think a guy paid millions to talk basketball would know this right

he blew it with Lob City Clippers, he blew it with an even better team after... and tbh Harden ran all the plays Doc wanted and he didn't play selfish iso ball which he clearly could've when Embiid came back....
so honestly it wasn't James Harden's fault
Imagine a Kendrick Perkins calling you a quitter. That's tough
Nobody want to be James harden coach 😂😂😂
JA would be absolutely depressed to death during the season with that Heat team
Explain how ? He would be winning and would be held accountable. And it’s MIAMI. He is acting out because he is depressed where he is lol
@@SuperFelix05 check Miami starts, there starts during the season,he won't cure that himself, the guy is not depressed now, he's just doing foolish things
@@thedudetomorrow0002 .. Memphis or Miami? I would take Miami. Winning history ..let him do his foolish things there. Eventually he will stop.
If Ja morant goes to Mia he won’t even wake for the games 😭
Perk was 100 percent correct about the Sixers
Doc Rivers needs to stop dissing players after he gets fired.
We all know how Embid got his MVP. Harden literally feed Embid his scoring numbers.
Jay just made the perfect review of the Flash movie 🍿
No matter where you go , there you are. J Will is right
James harden is a GENERATIONAL CHOKE ARTIST 😂😂😂😂 James Harden disappears when u need him the most. Mindset matters just as much as talent, and harden is just MENTALLY WEAK, the same story every year with this guy
Yup once he gets punched in the face he gives up. He’s only good when there winning but he is the LEAST CLUTCH PLAYER OF ALL TIME
Doc Rivers would be a great great assistant coach that advises a younger coach who has more feel for the game than Doc
Doc Rivers is not a good coach 🤷🏼♂️ he got traded by the magic for….? Yes he won 1 championship in Boston but that’s it. He got ran out of LA and know he got fired by Philly 🤷🏼♂️ both really talented teams
Why would Houston want Harden back? he quit on them . Then quit on Brooklyn then quit on philly . As for ja what a dumb take by Perkins . He needs to get rid of bad ppl like a addict in recovery . His crew will go with him where ever he goes . So it isn't the place hes at . It's the ppl in his circle.
Y’all owe Ben an apology throwing that man under a bus and here doc doing it again.
Trying to scapegoat his player for his coaching coming up short . Least predictable doc response
Doc never takes responsibility. He always blames the players or team for their failures. He did it with multiple clippers teams . He did with harden . And the results speak for themselves.
To be fair, he had Harden and CP3. Two known playoff chokers who haven't done anything with or without him. He did win a chip when he didnt have chokers
@@deionn4 Embiid, Ben simmons, Blake griffin, jj reddick, Kawhi, paul george, etc. Lets just call everyone on all the multiple allstar teams he has had chokers. It clearly cant be the coach. He has that ONE ring with 3 all time top 75 players on the roster.
@@Firefenex1996 outside jj and kawhi, yeah all chokers.
@@deionn4 jj has had bad playoff performances as well... but the point is, Doc had the talent a lot of the time and cant seem to get a team over the hump unless that team has 3 all time top 75 players. He has been in positions to coach and GM and still couldnt get it done. and He is happily willing to put the blame on everyone else without taking anr responsibilty.
@@Firefenex1996 i mean, he can't play the game. Did Harden not look scared in that final game? Did Embiid not fail to produce his mvp stat line? His players are typically players that do well in the regular season and shrink in the playoffs. Is he great? No. But he's not bad.
You can bring a horse to water but you can't make him drink, it'll take a change of heart before a change of scenery does anything for him.
Perk knows whats going on in the streets. This the second time ive heard him say he heard things and thinks ja needs to leave Memphis
No one on this show is accountable for the words that come out of their mouths
JWill speaking facts
Joel Embiid needs to be held accountable too.
Jwill has sone nerve looking at Perk for that statement after he said Beal and tatum are practically equal players..
I guess what Perk was saying is that Ja needs to go to Miami so that he can leave most, if not all, of his crew behind. If you need guidance, structure, and discipline, you go to Miami. But I'm not sure if Miami has the pieces to trade for Ja. Because this is different from the Beal and Lillard situation. Portland will probably do Lillard a favor, and the Wizards want to Beal off the books. Memphis wants to keep Ja, I think.
Every single time a potential, or just a disscussed player trade comes up as a talking point, Perk is all in on trading them lol. Doesnt matter who it is, what team, or what situation; he says trade em!! Give these players some time to play with one another and grow together big man...😅
Ja should go to Toronto Raptors. With all honesty. That will really help him even to get away from all those distractions and surroundings.
he really should eh
As a 76ers fan, get rid of him. And Houston isn’t taking him as if he could t deal w Doc keeping him in check, then he def isn’t going to be happy w Ime (and Ime isn’t going anywhere anytime soon).
My condolences on your lost
Ja just needs to go away. Like just disappear! Ja created his own problems. He has chances to redeem himself. This guy is not going to change!
Grizz will never trade Ja lets be real
The James Harden hate is outrageous. That man won them 2 games (1 without Embiid). Yet Doc and Embiid had to execute their 'game plan' to lose the series. Now Doc wants to blame Harden, the NBA assist leader? How can he do it by "not giving up the ball"? How about just admit you don't have the ability to draw plays?
I have to agree about the coach. Doc with 20 plus years coaching. He couldn’t even get through to Ben Simmons.
The little success they got has him not focused on hoops. He needs a reset with himself. Ja says he's elite but this rarely happens to the very special players. They're far too commited to the game
That will be very very difficult perk.. come on
Jay talkin bout do we want harden back HE CANE UP BIG THE FIRST 2 GAME CUZ EMBIID CANT STAY HEALTHY embiid was so committed to the mvp as soon as he got ts he quit on top of that look at the box score for game 6 and 7 what help did harden and embiid really have. Please tell me.
Again ESPN push the narrative that players need switch teams
