“My goodness turning into a journey man” is the funniest thing I’ve heard Molly say
Windy: WHY WOULD THEY GIVE THE PICKS RIGHT BACK?!
Mad Dog Russo: 🗿
😂😂😂
😅😅😅😅
🤣🤣🤣
Looking like Zoolander 😂
Mans really contemplating why they gave up those picks
This is vintage HoF moment in Windy's career as an insider. Absolutely loved it 😊
Yes, 20 years from now 👌🏾
Too bad he’s always wrong
I mean he's been right alot. I just don't like this take.
This is the moment?! I never had faith in Windy, he looks more like a plant than anything .. but if this is his “hof moment” he’s done!
He’s wildly inaccurate, SA picked it apart in seconds, and Windys takes are more emotional than anything else..
Does ESPN put bot comments like this to uplift Windy?
Molly with the “My goodness turning into a journeyman” 😂😂😂😂
Hilarious
That's arguably Molly's best line so far this year 😂😂
I fell out hearing that!! 😂😂
@@obynoomere1280KD haters espn Molly who
Bruh I died when she said that 😂😂😂
aye Windy funny AF explaining the details lmaooooo
And Stephen A didn’t understand it all 😂
You can tell he's just trying top hard to recreate that inconic windy moment which became a meme
The 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mans be getting wet explaining trade details 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He’s obese as far as I am concerned.
Molly and mad dog have no idea what windy is saying
Not a clue😭😭😂
no shot 😂
Mad dog is the Biden of sports talk
Facts😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The way Windy was slappin that Desk 😂😂😂
That's his Hawk Tuah move.
🤣they got him hot af today
@@RD-zx6py 💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
beats him spitting food out his mouth like usual
Love when Windy gets hyped. His love for what he does comes through
It’s fake.
@@donaldhermann2121 He still there, getting paid. While you were calling it fake lol.
Windy is HYPED
“I don’t miss you Molly. I just don’t.” 🤣
She's so unlikeable. I get it.
Windy excitement explaining the situation was so funny.
Bro almost had an orgasm talking about draft picks 😂😂😂😅😂
He definitely loves his job and I respect that.
😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣
Molly said wow he's turning into a journeyman 😂😂😂
👁️
She really hasn’t man lol. My first cousin works at the Network with her she definitely has self respect and morals
@@Cashman2024-j2pshe’s not gonna date you bro
@Paulguynj.Such a trash comment. Grow up
I thought that was funny.. I was wondering if anyone caught that lol
This the funniest news I seen all year 😂😂💯
No cap 🧢 😂😂😂😂
Ong 😂😂🚮🚮
As a lifelong Rockets fan, I don’t mind the 🚀 drafting Clingan at 3 and also acquiring KD. I’ll take it when you look at the young talent Houston has along with a defensive minded coach. Let’s go 🚀. We wasted money on Harden all those years so why not KD?
@@marcusgarveyhou1877I rather acquire booker
Heres what always intrigues me about these "breaking" stories, these GMs are so smooth with how they "leak" the info on potential trades, coaching changes, etc.
I love when Wendy gets excited.. one of the best
Windy out of wind explaining all that
thats why its fun to watch windy when he's excited rofl
You win🤣💀
Stephen A literally praised the Knicks trading 6-7 picks for Mikal Bridges yet don't think KD and DBook is worth 4 picks on the same day is crazy
in his defense he did state that he didnt like them giving up 5 first round picks for Bridges
Are you dumb? Knicks picks aren't worth as much as those picks. It isn't even complicated
@@trippymarco2354yea that was absolutely insane
I think it’s KD to the rockets. That’s not gone matter. The Knicks adding Bridges to a already good team is different
@@RonJP-pm7jpit literally does not matter lol Boston in 4
As a Rockets fan.. if we give up any of our 6 young guys.. pain
Lmao not Molly publicly dissing KD 😂
Bro should've just stayed in Golden state. He won't win another ring
She's actually right
@skii7602 he wanted to continue getting paid at a high clip.
@@Naiatelu exactly! people that barely hooped always think it's all about how many rings you have lol
@@skii7602He doesn't really have one now
Loved Windy's passion and energy on his take! 😂
I love Windy. + Houston is nuts for wanting to waste all those assets on KD who'll be 36 to start next season.
Do you know how many assets they would give up? You don't. So it depends
Its gonna be a good amount so nomtheless it's a risky trade @nazimbelaidi6486
And just came off on of his best seasons 😂😂😂😂😂😂
U kno KD made all nba last year n really should’ve made an all defensive team as well even at 36💯🤷🏾😭
KD still absolutely elite
Stephen A's sources used to be valid like a decade ago. Can't trust that man anymore.
Not at all
He’s full of sh!t 95% of the time
Trading away Sengun is a no-go. I think people seriously underestimate the ceiling of that kid. Now KD + Sengun 👀
Alperen Sengun is definitely a superstar in the making. He is untouchable in any trade for now (in my eyes).
Senguin is a worse sabonis. 0 defense, he only hyped because not many come from his country
@@xavierb9061 - Sengun is hyped because of his elite post scoring, playmaking, and rebounding. Sengun is a better defender than Sabonis: post and perimeter.
@@xavierb9061 If Luka played defense as good as Sengun he might be holding a chip rn.
@@JeftasBookClub worst comment this year
Love seeing Windy upstage Stephen A on his own show!
“ State your sources “ 😂🍿🔥
SAS pulled all that out of his a$$ and he knows it. Egos to big to get outshined by Windy
💯 it's only a matter of time before viewers get tired of all the smoke he blows. He gossips in the name of reporting and really plays at narratives
Dude is a full blown clown
THE ROCKETS NEED TO BE IN THE COOPER FLAG SWEEPSTAKES
We don't want old KD in Houston. He's 36 and getting 50 million no thanks. We want Booker if anything
50 million isn't the problem. Worse players make more than him right now.
Why booker hasnt won anything you can hate all you want on KD but 27 pts on 52% is big, your getting bucket
Houston will take KD with the right trade scenario. My suggestion: trade Dillon Brooks, Fred VanVleet, and pick 3 for KD.
@@mikelmoon100 we all know that's not enough. We just saw bridges get traded for all those picks.
@@nazimbelaidi6486 - Don’t worry. The Rockets can add pick 44 and a 2026 draft pick if needed.
For current scenario, 1) Fred addresses Suns’ point guard issue, 2) Dillon fills a defensive-wing-who-can-score-a-bit role, and 3) draft pick 3 could become a reliable big man for the Suns.
If you're trying to build a champion team and you move too fast, you can defeat the purpose. Patience is a virtue.
Windy keeping the lights on in the building rn 😂
By making up stories?
Surely this is a joke?
Mad Dog's face while Windy is talking is hilarious
Why would they trade a future stud like Sengun for an older KD lol
The fan base will go crazy if they do something that dumb
Cause Ime likes KD more than Sengun seems like
@@ajbased44this a crazy take bro. sengun not going anyyywhere
@@ForgiveThem i sure hope not!
The Rockets won’t trade Sengun for KD.
They’re not interested in KD to win a championship, they’re interested in increased ticket & jersey sales
Yeah, I would think they would be better off continuing to build the way they have been. Seems like it's working for them. And their coach seems good with molding players and utilizing new talent effectively.
KD aint going to the Rockets, he wants at least a big 3 to consider a move
@@shawnchia3611 I can't lie, Reed, KD, and Kyrie would be something to look at given Kyrie has a player option. Ime as the leader [enforcer] to steer it would be ideal
Man Stephen A ain’t reporting nun had that typed up in his notes before the show
KD getting passed around more than the blunts he smokes😂😂
Passed.around like a crackhead hoe
Fun fact: Most rich people don't pass blunts they mostly roll & smoke their own. Especially since Covid.
😂😂😂😂
he def be cheefn 😭🤣
which make those 2 rings and FMVP he won with GS looked even less impressive now.
That Man Windy be so passionate love to see it 💯
😂
bot comment
@@zType2 nah a respectable comment but okay
@@j.osoulwave1531 didn’t know I told a joke
@@kilem93 windy should be as passionate about his health no?
Wendy just couldn't get over them Nets picks😂😂
Wendy !!😂😂 I like Wendy's better!
Giving up all your assets to trade for Bradley Beal ruined the Suns franchise smh but i kept hearing “bOoKER cAN pLAy PoInT GuARd” 🙄
I strongly agree with your sentiment 🙏🏾
The dumbest trade
One of the dumbest moves in nba history
What assets?? They got Beal for nothing
They should have trade for a guard or kept cp3
SAS bro u be doing the most…like where do u be getting your information…like man 🤣🤦🏾🤣
He's been in the business for decades as a reporter so yeah
@@Maxrepfitgm please don’t antagonize him. He already thinks he knows everything and everyone.
Kd to the rockets does nothing . Waste of time
Not if Green and Sengun take that leap
@@fairwiz5722 that's a big if
Rockets will be good they Are better than what people see because they haven't been on tv much lately. They are way deeper than phoniex. Watch they are gonna surprise a lot of people.
KD will push Houston into the playoffs for sure by two years they'd be a serious contender if he were younger. Unfortunately, KD is old. Rockets would be smarter getting Booker
The Rockets will be a playoffs contender next season without KD due to the rising talent and cohesion. Add KD to the Rockets, and you will see championship contention.
Lmaoo Molly with her comment, Windy’s excitement and Mad dog’s face 🤣🤣🤣 all made me laugh more than stephen a
LOL @ trading Sengun for Durant. I'd much rather have Sengun at this point than Durant if I'm the Rockets.
Lmao what ? Yea you a causal .. mf just average 28 6 and 7 on 50/40/90amd guarding the best players and banging with the bigs 😂😂
The Rockets will definitely keep Sengun over a trade for KD. The Suns better be happy with Dillon Brooks, Fred VanVleet, and pick 3 for KD. 😂
Do y’all know what Senguns skill set is?
@@johnhancock5274 - Elite post scoring, playmaking, and rebounding… He is also an improving shooter (more reliable mid-range shot now; so-so 3-point shot) and defender (active hands for deflections).
@@mikelmoon100 Sengun is a good center for the early 2000’s his skill set has a ceiling to it. If he had a 3 point shot and could play PF then I would love him but he has to play center and he will never be a top 5 center. Nikola, Joel, AD, Kat and I think the finals have finally let people appreciate how good Porzingus is. We can’t win a championship if your best player isn’t at least top 5 in their position. Sell high now before he gets expensive and his value goes down.
Never heard Windy so passionate 😂
1:34 tf is wrong with Mad Dog's face? LOL he making a Chad face
Bro I came to say the same s#!t 😅 that's his poker face.. He calling bulls#!t on windy 😂
That's blue steel. You need to watch Zoolander 😆
DRAFT PICKS!
YOURE TALKING ABOUT DRAFT PICKS!
WHO CARES ABOUT DRAFT PICKS!
Nobody:
Windy: (slaps table) "Why!??? Why would they do that?!!!!"
Imagine Windy in a Rockets Uniform shooting a fadeaway 3
😂
He'd pull a muscle after one shot. Imagine the sweat on his chest after 2 mins of practice.
Windy out here giving a motivational speech
KD might genuinely be the first Superstar Journeyman
🤣🤣🤣 very true
I can see Kevin Durant joining the Rockets and catapulting them back into contention. If he stayed there and won a championship, it would be the perfect redemption ark!
I cant see that, Houston with KD aint better than OKC Denvers or Minnesotta.
@@tigera6or Mavs
windy playing a character, mad dog making a punchable face 🤣
Let’s all appreciate the hard work that goes into making these videos!
Lmaoooo why windy so hype bout draft picks slapping the table nshit chill gang
Because windy be looking at the details at stuff that’s not being reported that will come out to be something bigger
Big moment for him 😂
Because he likes his job?
@@ItsYuhBoyyyy well of course lol I’m just joking at him
That was funny! Telling Doggy to sit straight! 😂
Mad Dog's face is instant comedy.
Mad dog be right on the money !
The point he made about the Suns investing in coaches is spot on.
I don’t like it.
Houston needs something but they don’t need KD.
Trading sengun would be dumb
Yeah but look at how much better Jalen Green was without him on the floor…
Sengun makes the team play different chasing points
@@nathanclements6635They lose the spacing with Donovan Klingan too
Windy might as well be speaking Greek at this point😂😂😂😂
KD to the rockets is 🔥 fit. KD not trying to come in and be the leader or team captain, he came be a system player but still shine like himself. The tickets play defense which KD plays, and he’ll play with players that actually wants to play and won’t be hurt majority of the season
Windy burning extra calories today for being so amped up 😂
Molly calling KD a journeyman is wild af 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Thought this was a joke but ended up being First Take best segment in years.
Problem is, the "other show" is lit like this all the time...
Lmao I love windy
I love when windy is excited 😂
Why Molly clowning KD saying he turned into a journeyman 😩🤣 a 50/40/90 player averaging at least 28 before and after an Achilles injury… my goodness
He getting traded every year and a half. Kinda is turning into a journeyman like Harden no matter how much he’s averaging
@@manamongstboyz8956truth
@@02nupeif your own teammate calls **itch no player will stay in a team especially if you are a super star. He was traded to nets that's ok. But from nets to suns is because of Kyrie, he asked for trade then Durant asked. It's just circumstances, it's not like kd goes one place and ask for trade everywhere.
0:35 ~ 4:00 I don't wth is going on but I can say for sure, this whole 3 and half minute gave me more goosebumps than entire 5 games 2024 NBA Final series....
If KD gets sent to Houston, basketball gods are just relentless with KD lol
Windy talking REAL GM-level inside baseball and I love it! Turning into the JJ of trade analytics right before our eyes!
When are we gonna tell the Truth about KD. He’s not what they act like he is.
If it was me i would move beal before Durant. Booker and KD fit better together and KD is a better player. Move Beal, move nurkic and get depth. Sign Pat bev to be the point guard. He can push this team vocally. And build around Booker & KD properly. I would keep Bol Bol because he could be there 3rd option.
At this point KD and Harden are independent contractors. Giving them a contract of over a year is idiotic they will sign a new contract for 4 years and request to leave before they can play the first years game
Harden requested a trade from 3 teams in 3 consecutive seasons. KD can not be compared to Harden. KD was with the Thunder for 8 years (technically 9 because the franchise moved from Seattle to OKC after his first season). Went to the Warriors in free agency and was there for 3 years (only left because Draymond was an emotional asshat). Then he was with the Nets for 3.5 years. Do yall actually do research before you comment or...? You can be a hater, but dont let it make a liar out of you.
My boy Windy is trimming down! Way to go, bro!
Houston should’ve kept Nets 25 pick
If the suns trade kd or booker then phx should just delete their team. Thats ridiculous.
I dont see why nobody is mentioning this. But maybe this is just the media being dumb. If they trade KD it had better be to make moves for another superstar immediately or they'd be wasting their time. At this time there's nobody on the market that you can trade KD for that would be of equal value and keep the Suns in championship contention. The Rockets trade seems interesting, but it would be dumb for the Suns right now.
Last time KD tried to be a vocal leader, he got cussed out by Draymond lol
And Draymond regrets that decision to this day.. They would have more rings and it's his fault
@@jvtopflight796Won without him. KD regrets leaving.

Is one better than zero and going to team to team?
NBA storytime with Windy is always the best.
KD bout to have the worst superstar legacy story in league history lmfao
5:52 why mad dog always making this face in the background 😂😂😂😂😂
Kd getting pass around like a bag of chips
It's crazy smh.
I bet that by the time KD, Harden, and Westbrook retire, they will all have played on at least 6 different teams each.
ESPN will make a documentary on why none of them won a (legit) 💍 and ask "what if the OKC trio stayed together?"
@@vulcanraven9701KD has 2 rings, there is no ring that isn’t legit 🤣 casuals like you crazy
@@glizock6793His rings don’t count he knows that’s exactly why he left golden state he wanted to prove he could win on his own now after getting swept so many times suddenly the narrative changed to him just being a hooper & legacies aren’t that important.
That desk is getting excited when Windy was slapping the lights out of it 😁
KD passed around the league more than a Kardashian.
Houston should stop chasing old, injury prone super stars... In fact, every team should avoid it.
I think philly is the best place for KD....
Agreed but i think they’ll go after PG instead
Until Embiid can make it to the second round on two legs, Philly will go nowhere.
@@Sbock86 I guess. Stranger things have happened. Still think it's best fit for KD
windy getting too excited lmaooo love it
KD gonna end up having 100 coaches when its all said and done
lol
I think you have kd and LeBron confused
@@BalticDelivery-hz6wb6 coaches in 6 seasons for KD.. Brons never done that
Zero confusion my friend
lol
Still one of the best
@@CannedHam2479 no he just gets all his coaches fired and hires his own little babies like jj
@@BalticDelivery-hz6wb6 coaches in 6 seasons. Unprecedented .Coach Killah KD already sick of Budenhozer so hes trying to run to Houston
😂😂😂
KD is finding out, it's ice cold outside GSWs.
Lol Windy lost everyone in this segment. You can tell they dont have a clue what hes tlaking abt 😂😂😂
this is the most animated i've ever seen windy 😂😂😂
Depth is what wins in today's NBA not concentrating your salary cap to 3 guys listen to windy!
As a Rockets fan… I ain’t trying to get KD….
Anyway… Happy June 27th to all my fellow Houstonians ..🤘🏼
Windy is right. Id much rather the Brooklyn picks
Was a great trade by Brooklyn. But, still think it was a great trade for both teams. Like he said, it's a dangling piece of meat for the Phoenix owner to bail out of all the taxes.
Bruh Skippy A swears he’s the god of TV. I pray ESPN dumps him up around better talent that doesn’t act like he does on a daily basis. It’s off putting.
MOLLY SHUTUP she be talking waaay to much
That’s why Jalen dipped
They need a moderator for the moderator😂
Jalen got in and got out at the PERFECT time. Jumped out out of a closed window.
@markadams9335 was it that bad with molly?😮
I freakin love when Windy is explaining the intricacies and behind the scenes scheming. Imagine him breaking down house of the dragon episodes.
kD in Huston is crazy
*Houston
“It’s very hard for three ppl to make over $50m.” Now that is precisely why H town traded for later draft capitol. If thier team goes off next season, now they have time to see who they’re paying and when…
Also… the Nets don’t make this trade without knowing the Rockets cosigned… its pretty obvious since we’ve been chasing Bridges all year.
Trading for Durant is not a big move. Hes not a difference maker when it matters unless its with Steoh and a 72-9 team. Hes failed miserably everywhere else
Bus Rider confirmed?
So youre telling me the 2x finals mvp is a fraud bc he played with the two greatest shooters to ever walk the earth?
Just curious here what does 72-9 have KD ?
@@timh9220Yet won 2 FMVP's. Make it make sense. Y'all dumb AF...
You clearly don't watch or you are just a hater. He took OKC to finals and conf finals multiple times. He was the best player in them gsw years. He had bucks go to 7 games and over time with his second, third and fourth best players getting injured. He's been great most seasons. Not everyone wins a chip. Luck with injuries help that. That Brooklyn team would have destroyed bucks if healthy. You are a idiot
Love the long form videos
Phoenix suns owner disbanded a good team. Blew it up for no reason.
No he didnt. They were never getting to the finals again. Ayton didnt wanna be there and the 2 players that are gone werent going to move the needle for a championship.
K.D is now a JOURNEYMAN
I love when Windy gets like this lol
