    Broussard has always been my favorite analyst or tv personality and this confirms why. Him becoming a full time host on FTF turned that into my go to sports show and I can see why reacting to sports news as it happens is more refreshing than rushing to be first to break a story

      Agreed!
      He is the most fair and best in the business with covering and assesing NBA

    This was amazing. Broussard is my favorite. Just a genuine good, funny, intelligent dude. No getting loud for no reason. Long story short, he’s not a puppet. Thanks for this video.

    Loved this conversation. Thanks for connecting with him. CB is a man of great takes and great integrity. And he knows how to have fun and how to take (and make) a joke!

    I love Chris Broussard. He has always been consistent with his takes, and entertaining. You can just feel how genuine he is through a tv screen. Great guy and a true “elder statesman”😂. Got so much respect for him, glad you have him on. Can’t wait to see what’s next for First Things First. It has become my favorite sports talk show over the past year! Great episode!

    I am 45 minutes in and this is hands down my favorite Chris Broussard interview. He is my favorite (along with Jason McIntyre) of all the FS1 people. Sometimes I criticize him because we disagree on some things. But he is great.

    Can someone educate me please? I thought Stephen A broke the LeBron decision… he said it on radio and specifically said it would be Wade Bosh and Bron. Am I missing something regarding Broussard breaking it?

      Really? I feel like he only sticks up for lebron when people are over hating. He tends to be hard on lebron on FTF because Nick is so pro lebron. I feel like he’s pretty objective on most of his takes.

    As usual, Ethan's video freezes while at same time, the guest's video does not. Maybe Ethan needs a new Internet provider.

    Chris sold his soul to Klutch sports. He was once one of the most respected in sports journalism now reduced to a puppet. He no longer has the ability to present an objective take.

    If we're keeping it a bean Stephen A. Smith broke the "Bron to South Beach" story; he just wasn't working for ESPN when he did it.
