Another example of how delusional lebron fans are, mj didn't win no cause he had no help but he was doing more go look at mj numbers his first couple playoff years, he just didn't have a kat or Gobert or Conley ect so that comparison its just ridiculous, niknose you lebron fans are delusional asf
Mj averaged 38 6 n6 with 2 steals and a block in his first 13 playoff games, he just had no help niknose another example of how delusional lebron fans are

Wildes down bad rn, all he could say was "What?"
😂😂😂😂
The nuggets down 0-2 😂
@@qualinteranzy7948 nick gon have a field day today
Y'all remember Nick saying the Rudy Gobert trade was the worst trade in basketball history 😂
Vast majority said the same.
Replacing D-Lo with Mike Conley is such an underrated move they made last year. They wouldn’t be a contender today if that trade didn’t ever happen.
@ethanliddle9008 Yeah but they were wrong. Gobert is one of the primary reasons the Wolves have been playing so well
@@ethanliddle9008damn near everyone thought it was an awful trade so did I, now im eating crow. Good for the wolves.
He said something similar about Wiggins to GS, even if he’s been bad lately he was a key piece on their championship run.
Tonight 👀… I can’t wait for Wildes
For all the people complaining there’s no defense in the modern NBA - watch this series.
Bro ima be honest. The NBA is only bad in the regular season. These playoffs have been hella entertaining and I was also down on the NBA like a lot of people were around like February.
The NBA stops calling those tickytack fouls in the playoffs. The reason Harden is trash in the playoffs.
@@iang7244these playoffs have been really physical I love it so far. They letting the boys play for the most part.
@@edgybravo4287 Well, it's about time they start letting them play. I'm with you, that makes for a better game.
@@Dryltdand embiid
Brou tryna avoid that Doc Rivers voice
😂😂😂😂😂
I was wondering why he's always drinking out that cup every 5 minutes then again he uses all his vocal cords yelling at rob at the odd couple lol
Watching this video after game 2 is hilarious 😂
Watching after game 4 is comedy
Wildes calling in sick tomorrow. You wait!😂
Oof. Wildes is gonna be devastated tomorrow.
Todays show is gonna COOOOOK
as a Heat fan, just know: the same GM who built the Nuggets, built the Timberwolves, and made sure THREE big men can guard Jokic. we lost the finals because nobody could guard him. it’s something only the Timberwolves have the ability of. Jokic is forced to play the entire game. and it’s not just the scoring, it’s the aspect of passes and rebounds. but once that happens, the chance of winning goes up tremendously if you have a dominant scorer.
🎯
And the coach is smart, too. Naz Reid taking advantage of Denver not having (decent) backup C
This is also what the nuggets get for losing to the spurs, they may have to play them anyway but at least they wouldn't have to right now. That was an impactful loss
Your right! Tim Connelly nba 🧠 is great!
And that’s exactly how you beat Denver,, you have to have multiple big men on him you got 3 you will have a freah (as fresh as you can get deep into a game) to go against a joker who sure is great at cardio but if you got a guy with 10 minutes matching up against a guy no matter how good with 30 there is a slight advantage there!
This how LAL beat Denver in the WCF in ‘20
Lakers had it back in the bubble with McGee Howard n AD.
Brou and Ty Lou, separated at birth.
Nick and Adrian broady did to 😂
@@kaystacks9727 more like nicolas cage after a bad plastic surgery.
See what Wildes have to say about luck today
As a born and bred Minnesotan from the Twin Cities I fully endorse "Brou's Wolves"
Can't wait for today's segment when Wilds has to talk about Denver down 0-2
The real question for Broussard regarding Harden:
“Is the man…”
Simple? Slow? Senile? 😂
Add Tim Duncan to that short list. Young player, deep playoff run, best on his team. 2nd round his first year, NBA champs and finals MVP his second year.
Who else is here after game 2 T-Wolves victory 😂
Here after game 4😄
Give Naz some love. Went crazy in the 4th quarter
Last year the Nuggets had a much easier road to the championship. It will be much tougher this year.
You clearly didn’t watch last year
Correct.
Denver is Done.. 🧹
Maybe in the finals, but they faced the best teams in the west , wolves suns lakers . Those games they won were extremely close tho last year
You guys need to change the outro. Right now it looks like Nick is being held captive by the Taliban and speaking for a ransom tape.
😂😂😂😂😂
😭😭
Hilarious!😅😅😅😅
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Wildes take looking real shakey rn
Omg I CANNOT wait for tomorrow's show after Minnesota BLASTED Denver tonight without Rudy Gobert😂😂😂
Can't wait for today's episode. I wonder how wildest is feeling 😂
Tim Duncan? He was the best player on the Spurs at 22
He wasn't the best yet at 22.
O Timmy was fasho best on spurs at 22
@@javon1134 That was Timmy's second season, so no.
@@penkima4923 yes he was, there's a reason the spurs won a title that year, do you know what you're talking about?
@@penkima4923 yea 99 they won the chip and he was mvp. He was better than robinson.
Sheesh it’s crazy to watch this knowing what just happened 😂😂😂

Wilds getting irritated is hilarious 😂😂😂
Wildes is clearly sooo wrong lol who’s here after the Nugs got BLASTED without Rudy 🤣🤣🤣
👇🏽
After tonight's game. Nuggets has no answer to Wolves defense.
See Dwight Howard was right this is how you beat the Nuggets
Broussard is one of the rare ones with consistently good takes.
When Murray plays good he’s a Hof when he’s bad he’s banged up😂😂😂
Wildes jumping on that Denver bandwagon, puffing his chest out declaring that they will repeat just to end up being wrong would be so funny.
I can’t wait I kept receipts
I’m convinced that Wildes knows next to nothing about sports. They only have him debate as a comedy bit. I would be cool with it because they all have chemistry and it can be entertaining. But every time Nick destroys his bad takes, he gets so mad now. So that tells me he’s not trying to be funny and he’s actually serious. So therefore, I guess we have to take all of his crazy takes at face value. Wildes Nuggets and Jokic are the equivalent of Brou’s Niners and Purdy. Both (Brou with football and Wildes with basketball) have limited knowledge about the sport and just pick their favorite of the year and obnoxiously defend them all year (even to a fault) and whenever they’re wrong, just move the goal post, change the argument to something weird, or use double standards. This show is at its best when it isn’t too serious. If Wildes is going to “join the debate”, he needs to be able to take the heat every time he says stupid stuff.
“No one is beating Denver in a 7 game series” I wish wildes would give the wolves credit lol
Just checking, what did he predict last year?
@@Master-Debator he brought out a deer for Milwaukee just for them to go out in round 1
5:46 Jayson was 19 on a team that went to the ecf. And then did it again 2 years later
Who?
i thought he just turned 19 this year
And was still 19 2 years later
Anthony Edwards is a future great in the league but don’t use Jordan to try and put down his greatness if he don’t live up to him.
Dats, you already know that’s coming if he has a few second round exits.
That hype merchant is just another NPC like tatum not even side character like Jokic. Luka is the next GOAT he will spam championships starting from june this year
I don't think there is any chance of that. All Ant has to do is stay away from the "not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6......... or the "that one right there made you the greatest of all time," comments. Someone like Lebron clearly wants to be seen as the GOAT. Ant just needs to play his game. Let the fans and media judge his greatness.
@@SK99900you’re funny
@@BroJ3221 that's irrelevant the important part is that i will be proven right
No lie wolves are fun to watch. Won't be shock if they win.
The disrespect of d wade is crazy. Led his team to a title while stile on his rookie contract
You’re right but they’re saying at 22 years old. Dwade was like 24-25 when he led the heat to the chip.
With an end of his prime Shaq.
check what kobe did when he was 22
Edwards won’t finish his career better than Wade!
@@JD-te6vm?
Wildes isn’t scared of Minnesota….. hes TERRIFIED!
He's startled 😅
Wildes really said “I don’t compare eras” LMAOOO
Now game 2. And it was a blowout. With no Rudy. 😮
4:57 “Jordan wasn’t doing this.” Jordan also wasn’t teamed up with another #1 overall pick & a DPOY at age 22…
Also jordan was injured on his second yr.
Womp womp
Im the biggest MJ fan in history. Just let Ant be Ant. What a player. Makes my blood runs faster. Thats a long time that that happened. Maybe 2017. Don't compare Ant to MJ. It's not fair. Maybe in 10 years. I'm looking forward to it
He forgets to mention that Anthony Edwards has had a head start as well playing at 22 is year for and was half way through year 1 for MJ.
MJ in year 4 was the MVP if I’m correct at 24/25 years old.
People just skip D. Wade and go to MJ.... Ant is 6'4"
It's definitely brous Timberwolves....TALK CHRIS ‼️💯🤣
I hope this is allllll just jokes cause brou gonna give em that good ole “curse of the Broussard”
Wildes is shook😂😂💀
Nick is so happy someone has a chance to beat the nuggets. He couldn’t stand it if Wildes was right again😂
Jokic and murray have faced two consecutive 3-1 series deficits before and camd back and won. So they certainly are capable of coming back when down in a series. The only thing really worrying is the slow starts that gave plagued them every game in the playoffs thus far. They have to try to find some energy and knock down their open shots.
Murray is injured, so Jokic would have to win alone. It's not happening this year.
@@penkima4923 more actions need to involve Michael Porter Jr. He's been the nuggets best shooter and hasn't had a a bad game yet. The mistake is that Jamal has been the primary ball handler on pick and rolls almost everytime early in games. That action should be inverted to get Jokic in space and switched so that he can read and make quick decisions before the defense settle in. Jokic would either have one-on-one with a smaller player or the defense would have to double and give away passing lanes.
These Jordan comparisons with Edwards are outrageous. Give the man some time before we all of a sudden label him something. The media is quick to compare someone to another great athlete
first thing Nick said (while Brou was talking) was about Jokic number of TO.
not ONCE he said that about LeBron, even when he made more TO than Jokic.
He’s a Lebron homer paid by klutch sports. You just heard him say in this video that Ant is doing what MJ couldn’t by getting to the second round younger completely disregarding that ant has an all star teammate, a dpoy on his team and a 6th man of the year.
@@cfl4286 FACTS
@@cfl4286 nick might get paid a little bit more from Klutch when he slys Mike..
they definitely picked game 1 & brou definitely picked the nuggets 😂
I think that youngest guy ever stat is very fallacious when it was only into the 90's when you started having significant numbers of 18 and 19 year olds entering the NBA.
You mean not the era Ant came from?
Yes and saying „Kobe was number 2“ at his young age is also: Edwards would’ve been number 2 to prime Shaq as well. So would 22 year old LeBron
@@Thaulin LeBron might've been the 2nd option, but he shouldn't have been.
Nick never mentions that Jordan played 3 years in college, so Lebron, KD, Kobe etc were 2 to 3 years younger than MJ when they came in the league.
@@christaylor8022Exactly what I said. He said MJ was 25, which was his 4th year. And AE is in his what? 4th year. So it's a fair comp. Hard to be the best 22 year old when for most that was their rookie year unlike now.
I love how they keep poking Wilds 🤣
Ant Edwards and Tyrese Maxey are two of the most electrifying and enjoyable stars I get to watch. So excited to see their careers explode as they become household names
gotta love this for anthony edwards, i saw him outplayed my ja morant last year and was a little disappointed but this shows growth and superstar aura
This Wildes take about game 1 didn't age well.
Wildes’ Nuggets got COOKED - down 2-0 😂
👀
LOLOL "I don't compare eras" - Wildes That's great. i will start using that.
LUKA Went all the way to the conference Finals at the Age of 23. Nick left him out..
He talking about age 22, not 23.
"Kobe's the only repeat without a stacked team in last 15 years..." Chills.
Argh tomorrow gonna be tough for Wildes 😂🫣
Yeah I feel bad for Wildes, the one big NBA take he had this year is gonna be threw back in his face 😂
@robg8203 Nick's definitely gonna be spittin and Brou might even bring out the purple Jordans. Actually he's definitely rolling out the fridge raiding/sandwich piece 😂
Going back to back is insanely tough. Denver just might have a bit less star power than it takes to go back to back
When they cancelling Undisputed and bumping this show to that spot?
Wilds cant even say it was a wake up call without smirking
I'm just here for Brou's Clippers 😂😂😂
First time not playing a 7 or 8 seed since the warriors swept them got the nuggets and they fangirls shook😭😭😭
This isn't the first time the Nuggets are playing without Murray, and it's not shocking they won't repeat.
Suns were a #4 seed last year and many people were picking them to beat the nuggets. Just saying.
@@michaelgomez2522 not sure about "many".. anybody who knew basketball knew the 2× MVP was the favorite, espcially since phoenix was assembled 2 weeks before the playoffs lol
@b84__ 13 of 17 of "experts" from the other network picked the suns (you can look it up if you care enough it won't let me post the link in here). As soon as they acquired KD they became an instant title favorite (this was reflected in the betting lines as well). Denver was seen as a finesse team that didn't play championship level defense.
@@michaelgomez2522 i dont speak for "experts".. well either way they about to get swept off their feet lmao
Luka took the mavs to the conference finals at 22 without a center or an allstar costar
They had Jalen Brunson before he was recognized as a great player
He was 23.
The whole “it’s so difficult to repeat” segment is very accurate and ironically counters Nick’s own Lebron GOAT debate. It is insanely difficult, yet MJ 3peated… TWICE. If it’s so easy, why hasn’t anyone done it even once aside from Kobe/Shaq? The Heat could not repeat against Spurs. Yet the Bulls beat the Jazz twice back to back. Excluding the Bill Russell era for now due to lack of competition back then, although he was a player coach at one stage which is insane.
Nick will do anything to rip Jordan then say “I’m not taking shots” weasel
This man just said the heat with bron and dwade had a gluttonous amount of hof'ers,norris cole and mario chalmers are hof bound,mike miller and shea battia are hof bound,stop it
Bron, Wade, Bosh until the illness, Ray Allen.
the Wolves gameplan just shows you that the lakers had ZERO coaching and HAM had to go bc they are just as big and athletic as the Wolves
Lol what? Outside of AD who are the lakers bigs??
No they are not. In 2020 yes
I love Anthony Edwards so much. But at what age did both players (Ant and MJ) enter the nba? I think that’s just an unnecessary comp to be fair to both
Tim Connelly is a genius
Last season, everyone kept on picking the Nuggets to lose every series, despite how good they were. This year, they keep on picking them to win despite their clear shortcomings.
The Wolves series last year was closer than people realized and that was with Murray, Jokic, and MPJ playing great and a better bench. Denver is in trouble.
This game reminded me of 2016 warriors-thunder. Hopefully it goes 7 like that one
I'm confused as to whether winning matters to Nick. Funny he only brings up "winning" as an argument for something as flimsy as "how long it took to win his second playoff game." Also no mention of MJ averaging like 40/game during those early playoff losses. He's so transparent, always manipulating the argument.
Give 22 year old MJ , KAT and GOBERT and surrounding cast ..I laugh at this stuff.
@chickhearn4ever779 yet the same people will say Lebrons losses with no supporting cast define his career, it's always biased in one direction or another I gave up on the GOAT thing it's just stupid
For goodness sake, just cut bait with PG. Just get some role players and hope Kawhi is healthy... Paul George has been AWFUL in the playoffs every year. You should get 3x15-20 mil players sooner than spending 50 mill on PG
He got the clippers to their only WCF by himself
These analyst giving excuses. Murray was “incredible be the Lakers” with no mention of his calf. Now they lose one game and hurt. Oh please
*vs
Don't say these analysts, if you mean everybody else than the analysts on this show.
@@penkima4923 what in your mind says I can possibly mean everybody else, if I wrote “analyst” ?
@@kelvinperez2702 None of the "analysts" on this show said Murray was incredible versus the Lakers.
@@penkima4923 then you have to pay attention
This show make me laugh every time 😂😂 “I picked the clippers 1 time 6 years ago” lolll
I love that Brou being a lifelong Clippers fan is part of the show’s lore, lol. Denver spent about half of the 5 games vs. LA dicking around and lollygagging, so they were due for a letdown. They may yet respond, though
Tim Duncan was 22 when he won his first championship and he was the best player on the team!
They're saying "that's a coaching thing" but nobody has a a thought to look at the personnel of the Lakers. No Edwards. No McDaniels. No 3 head big man monster. No Alexander-walker. Lakers had no defensive personnel to play that way.
The Clippers resigning Kawhi is crazy. Kawhi has shown consistently with the Clippers he can’t stay on the floor. If I were them I rebuild. Makes no sense to resign anybody
I'm hyped for the games tonight 🤪
We should get a Miles Bridges. The guy is big, athletic, and tall. He would bring at the same time scoring, defense and height. Have a Miles Bridges in the starting five would really help us balance the team with height, scoring and defense: PG: Harden; SG: Paul George; SF: Kawhi Leonard; PF: Miles Bridges; C: Zubac
This is a really more balanced team, they should try to get him.
Where are all the Nuggets fans that thought this was gonna be an easy series thinking Ant was the 40 year old Bron they have been pushing around for the last 2 years😂
Nuggets in 5. Call me when its over but dint cry.
Nobody thought that
LBJ averaged 28-8-7 on 57% shooting that series and thoroughly outplayed Jamal Murray. LeBron hasn’t been pushed around since the 2011 finals. Stop it 😂😂😂
@@fearlesskingdom4051💯
Well we know where the overconfident Wolves fans are 😂😂
You guys have Denver out so quick. Defending champs.
Are the Wolves amazing. Yes.
To the gnome, eat your words. So awesome watching the national media not believe their own eyes. Go wolves!
I’m starting to doubt New Balance basketball shoes. Half of their roster has chronic lower body injuries
As Shannon sharpe called them. Those orthopedics haha I get it, if they sponsor you and it’s good money, but you can’t hoop in New Balance. That’s a running company. If you run track, new balance all day. If you ball, stay away from
Chris 'the Clipper' Brousard ~ has a nice ring to it 😉
It's crazy watching this after Denver and joker got exposed 😂😂
Ill be the honest one I guess. I am shocked. I did not expect to see Timberwolves taking a leap in the playoffs. I never thought I would ever say that in any year.
I can't wait for the next game.
I am rooting for Nuggets but you gotta give credits where credits are due. Wolves did not “steal” game 1. They took it fair and square.
They needed bruce brown. The young guys arent great defenders which put waaaasasy too much pressure on the starters.
Their problem is shooting and depth
I CANNOT WAIT TO HEAR MY GUY WILDES LATER!!!!
I wonder if there was a fire 🔥 at the studio, would the 3 hoast scream in pain when burning, or would they go like arghhh this is rough and go quietly.
