Broussard is actually top tier sports entertainment😭😭
Facts 💯💯💯💯
Yes sir
Nick and Broussard should have their own show. Most entertaining duo in the business!
They poor man's Skip and Shannon
Never heard of skip and Shannon then
@@nnightkingj they don’t provide with quality comments... it’s all banter. Skip is a clown.
I agree they would be very entertaining but the most entertaining duo is on speak for yourself
@@jacopobottoni8597 you said entertaining you didn't say quality comments and with entertainment they are the best duo
Middleton was a middle class man KD, he was good
Khris MiddleMan
Yep, can't be poor when you have Khash Money!
Nah he was a Middleton stop comparing guys to each other
That's so disrespectful
@@adityasrinivasan7784 thumbs up yet its inherently a human thing to do
“Gianos” - Chris Brousard
Thanos Giannis 😂
Giannos is actually a regional variant of Giannis: to a Greek it sounds rural and old-fashioned, the equivalent of a name popular in the American wild West.
Thanos is just short for Thanasis which is a fairly common name in Greece.
😂
@@EvangelosLolos Thanasis is Giannis’ brothers name!
@@skippayless4357 yes I'm aware, didn't want to state the obvious. Calling him Thanos is fine.
Greek as all things should be
How about Middleton played like Middleton at his best when his team needed it the most..he is no KD.. respect his own game instead of comparing
That was his best game of his career
Middleton is an All-Star in his own right😤
@@Edward_._._Tired definitely not. he’s scored 40+ in regular seaosn
I knew he would I had him scoring his postseason high on my bet
@The Progressive Brit Game 1 Middleton shot 6/23 in a ln 8pt loss. Giannis shot 16/24.
How could middleton outplay KD but be a poor mans kd last night
Bc KD does what he did night more often...and actually also is more expensive than Middleton...so it makes perfect sense to me.. Get it?
Has Middleton ever produced a stat line line 49 points, 17 rebounds, and 10 assists?
@@jesusblanco7657 yes. on january 28th, 2020, middleton had 51 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists against the wizards.
@@aloetragedy1568 so I guess he didn’t have the same stat line as Kd thank you for proving me right 😂 especially in a playoff game
@@jesusblanco7657 I'd like to know why people are offended people always compare stars and overall KD is better my God this is dumb..
Why call him a poor man's KD.
That is an insult. Even if you don't think so.
He was Middleton. He did what bucks fans expect of him. He is not a scrub.
Khris is a top-25 player and KD is definitely top-10 overall and possibly top-3 of those remaining in the playoffs.
Poor mans KD is a compliment
Poor man's KD is not an insult it's a compliment to someone who is not KD or just as good it's the next best thing I will love to be compared to Kevin Durant.
Lol relax. Middleton has had 2 good games this series, if he were more consistent this series would be over.
@Billy Bliss top-2 is also top-3, baby. Do you really want to split hairs here?
Calling him a poor man’s KD after he outplayed KD all the way around. Dude came from the G league, and became one of the best sidekick players in the league. That comment is mad disrespectful, if i was Middleton I’d pull ya card for that.
Yea ok
Lol calm down buddy he only spent one week in the G League. And Kevin’s Durant has vastly outplayed Middleton in this series. Just cuz Middleton played better than Durant in one game doesn’t mean He can do what KD does
Oh relax! Lol
Not really KD had 11 rebounds and 32 points sooooo i mean what did Middleton have 😂
@@gitworldyoungworld1127 Middleton had 38 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and 5 steals
This is how you build a show chemistry. First things first is the best sports show right now.
NBA on tnt best show
TNT for life
This group is good but can't beat Charles, Kenny, EJ, & Shaq
Lol, no sport show is the best sport show, all they do is talk numbers and stupid narratives, but hey if it gets views why change it
Why not replace Brandon with Broussard... like fr... like permanently
Well Broussard has his own radio talk show with Rob Parker, he’s not always available
They can’t afford him
Why
@@christianhernandez1569 it’s binary tbh, 1’s and 0’s. Broussard is faaaarrrrr better dan Mr Marshall
Yea i think Brandon would fit in more on speak for yourself. And you can lowkey tell Chris wondering why he's not permanently on the show the way hes always on brandon's neck.
Here we go game 7 KD vs Giannis cant wait🗣
Bucks in the Finals
Kudos to Giannos! 😂🤷🏽♂️
Giannos actually is usable in Greek. We use it when the Giannis you talk to is a close friend to you
@@vlassischatzis8574 Broussard doesn’t know that. He got goin and mispronounced it. Over explaining kills the joke.
Whoever comes up with the titles of these videos needs a raise because you definitely got us here 😂
I actually agree with Nick: the Nets are out of gas. The Bucks will be on super octane, giving it their all, and their all will be more than the Nets can give.
Watch after game 7. Trust me on this the Nets are gonna win game 7
Na, I think the Bucks will regret giving game 5 away...should be home and dusted right now...I think the Nets close them out...they may be tired but it's just one game to save their season...Keep it close for 3 quarters and let KD take them home in the 4th...having said that...if Middleton drops 30 and is efficient doing so it won't matter if KD drops 50.
@@aduad KD did drop 48 and they still lost. Completely out of gas
@@marquisblakemore8468 You say??
As a Steph Curry fan, and Nick being a "Steph hater" lol, Nick is one of my favorites on these types of shows.
The bucks did what they had to do win game 6 force game 7 vs nets
Even when the media finally acknowledge Middleton they still disrespect him.
Chris Broussard it would be view as disrespect towards Khris Middleton and Kevin Durant....IF KD told Jason Williams don't compare me to Giannis then how do you think he feel about being compares to Khris Middleton 🤔
Jay Williams * and your right
Middleton is better that giannis
I mean kd never said that
KD said he never said that
@@Hollywood01 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Saying the Nets were tired is weak sauce. Terrible excuse and just give the Bucks credit
I gotta agree with Sir Glow Stick on this one.
Couldn't wait to come back and tell Chris B. Bucks in 7 no cap
Middleton played the best last night end of discussion
Broussard last monologue on point lol
First things first has gotten a lot better, I enjoy each of these guys
Nick, Brandon, Wilds: 🤨😠🤔
'The Nets arn't made out of sugar!'
Morgan Freeman voice: They were in fact, made out of sugar.
Love this show !!!
Facts
Broussard tell that poor man's comment of yours to Middleton while his holding the ECF trophy.
I can tell you right now Middleton is a lot closer to being KD caliber than being a poor man's version of him. An example of the term "poor man's" in its proper perspective is Joe Ingles compared to Larry Bird. Middleton isn't better than KD, but he's nearly a superstar and the best player on the Bucks currently. Giannis can't shoot or playmake that well, which really hurts him in the playoffs and why I'd prefer Middleton (currently)
So Nick agrees that old NBA players were tougher!
IKR?
What happened to TODAY'S NBA is bigger, stronger, faster??? 😂😂😂
Even when Chris gives Giannis his flowers still manages to trash him talking about “Yownus” 😂😂😂
Harden hit 56% of his shots last night. They're dropping, may he just needs to shoot more.
Why is it ok for them to be exhausted? “They busted their butts all playoffs”. 10 games? KD hardly played this year. Like, every team should be exhausted if this is the case
Um injuries Mayb ?? The big 3 havnt played together. Harden and Kyrie injured
jajaja lo amo a Chris Broussard
Makes you think MDA is pulling the strings in Nets that game6. Houston always played 7-9 players during the playoffs. I need to see DJ play and have Harden throw some lobs or do PNR to Claxton a bit more
A poor mans KD? these "analysts" stay being disrespectful. Literally no way you can take that in a good way lmao . The dude is doing his own thing . Just appreciate it ..
Ikr like bro just had 38 points in 16 shots and had 2 and 1 threes and they out here disrespectin
@@AceTheCap823 fr just give the man his credit... I like how the bucks just beat the Nets and Broussard calls Middleton a cheaper version of KD lol .
Yes ok thats somehow a compliment lol
Alright Brandon at the end there if everything you just said actually happens everyone on this show needs to figure out what brandon does off camera he must be psychic🤣
highkey i see it happening
A poormans KD ?? Honestly that was the worst thing someone could say to analyze the game. Middleton stayed in his bag didn’t do anything he hasn’t done before.
Broussard the GOAT! and even Brandon has stepped up his takes this postseason
Nick talking like K.D didn’t just come off a historic 49 points game 5.
So much better
Bucks fan here. Hate to say it, but book this. The Bucks will choke in game 7. They always do. Middleton will not show up. Holiday will not show up. Giannis will miss key free throws. This is who they have been and who I think still are. Bud has to go
hey played 1 game 7 and it was against boston. Strangely enough the results were fairly identical to this series. Boston won all their home games and Bucks did the same
@8:29 Thanks Nick for correcting Brandon on that play.
Chris Broussard went O.G. status at 10:08 and Wilds applauding him for it because he's the other O.G.
That boy COLD
D Antoni is notorious for playing his players to the ground. Nash is his disciple. No surprise there. Anybody's guess whether they can last the whole post season
Middleton is a baller, he's not a poor man's KD. Home court has been won too often so here we are on the Nets floor. Bucks go legit but Nets hang tight, Game 7 Bucks 111 to 108 and Brandon thinks his coffee was watered down but it was just his tears the day after.
Yooo I thought I was crazy for calling Middleton “baby Durant”, I’ve been saying that since last year.
He’s not KD he plays like Kobe other than the paint game, that’s where he needs to show up
Congrats 🥇
Me too lol
Can’t wait to see Chris come on after his guarantee that the Nets were going to close it out in game 7 😂😂
Game 5 really was a must win game for the Nets, you can’t go back to Milwaukee down 2-3
Broussard reminds me of a poor mans Skip Bayless and it is meant to be as I said.
What actually ended this game for the Nets was when James Harden attempted to convince Steve Nash into challenging a foul on a 3 point attempt by Chris Middleton. Prior to that the Nets were on fire and had pulled to within 5 points, even Joe Harris seemed to finally find his range. That decision by Harden delayed the game which caused the Nets to go cold, while the Bucks got a chance to rest up and pull it together enough to close out the game.
The Teamwork was there for the Bucks, they are stronger together
those are not all hustle stats...they're size stats. they could do that every game if they wanted to
The disrespect on Khris. Bruh he dropped 38 .
Really??? A poor man’s KD?? Give the man credit in his own right ffs….he had an amazing game👌
Im not gone lie, Brandon been getting better
What can you really rely on Chris Middleton having a game like this again and I also think Harden is getting more comfortable
And they wonder why players make super teams. To compare a man to another man and call him a poorer version of that man? That's foul smh.
Nets in 7
game 5 was a must-win, but game 6 was not...should have played more guys
Preacherman Brandon! 🤣🤣😂😂
Watching game 7, KD balled but you can tell at the end of game 7 he head nothing left in the tank. Same with Giannis he was gassed but the difference is when Giannis got tired Middleton stepped up nobody stepped up for KD in that moment.
He was Middleton
Nets talking they gonna close out- but in the back of their minds they thinkn of good excuses if they lose 😆
Nets will outplay bucks i promise no excuses

@@sepehreskandari6198 aye thats perfect analogy right der my guy !
The playoffs show what you’re really made of.
Broussard brought the 🔥
Nick Wright, others are sharp
ESPN brought out the D team for an entire week.
“tHe bUcKs wErE pLaYiNg liKE tHeIr sEasON wAs oN tHe liNE” well because it was..
Boo hoo they’re tired 😪 1) they barely played games this year 2) Athletes nowadays are better conditioned and have more athletic bodies 3) in the playoffs the rotations have always been tighter so your starter minutes go way up. Wtf is Nick saying
Brandon, Wiles is right, Harden is not tired.
Brandon is yelling every day in spite of being mic'd. Please work with him on his energy. It's out of balance with the other panelists. His energy is off. Always on ten. Not good.
Huge game by Middleton. I’m not sure if he’ll do it again in Game 7, but I do believe he will show up big time for the Bucks. Will it be enough to overcome the Nets AT HOME? (6-0 at home this postseason) That remains to be seen!
Don’t say 6-0 at home, they beat the Celtics be real with yourself no brown just Jayson Tatum
@@sammyjoseph2040 and despite your comment, they’re literally STILL 6-0 at home.
@@mattmaltese8375 how bout now you bum
@@sammyjoseph2040 calling me a bum bc I was spitting facts at that point in time 🤣🤣 you’re a nobody. Certified school threat
Kris is a poor man's kawhi. Been saying it for years, given their work ethic.
Switch their draft situations and Kris would be the 2x FMVP and Kawhi would be the greatest G Leaguer ever.
Crazy how that works but kawhi is a lot more physically imposing then kris
@@dontmindme4197 yeah, Khris is not as good as a primary defender. Still way better than average, but he's not the Claw.
Kris didn't get groomed by the HOF Spurs. He didn't have the best shooting coach in Chip Engelland.
Coming from a Spurs fan, had Kawhi been drafted anywhere else those muscles wouldn't matter.
@@Nomorehats that is true, kawhi wasn’t very good when drafted but he improved through work ethic and good player development
What you mean Bucks wised up? For the longest time, people always said Giannis would be better if he had a jump shot. He starts shooting and they say Giannis needs to stay down low.
Dang, no Jenna again.😫
That harden pullback on the steal also ended in a 3 pointer sooooo mention it
...and im a proud nets hater
Brandon and Chris sound nervous lol
He’s Khris Middleton, not anyone else, get it right Chris
Gone are the days when defense won in the playoffs…… now it’s whoever hits the most 3s🤔🤔
I agreed with nick
Can’t he just be a first class Middleton?
Khris Middleman
Brandon must have the best agent in the business
This day basketball is for dancers!!!
In the 90 basketball was for Men!!!
Nick and Wildes been wrong about this whole series
Please please Bucks...win in game 7
KD established himself as the best player in the NBA today
No he didn’t
Guess who out of four is Stan Laurel !!
These last few games have let Harden loosen up the hamstring so hopefully in Game 7 he goes off
Did chris say yanos?😭😭😭
Giannos? 😂
Lol. How wrong were Brandon and Broussard?
Eye call him cash money he rip KD a*** up on me nobody could guard him last night we need this one more time and nets are gone 🎣🎣🎣💯
Athletes dont just withered down like normal folks. Nets in 7.
Chris broussard is eating crow right now ...lmao
So what was this piece supposed to cover? It covered how we got here. Middleton has been asked to do a lot this series. Defend, lead pace, score,... he isn't anything like KD. That's a fact. KD numbers can be had by a player, its how they get those stats that defines them.
Kris needs to trust his team, stay consistent, and look for open shots. Giannis needs to push the defense into the paint. Either Holiday, or Lopez need to get in there as well, and let Middleton anchor the back-court.
On paper the Bucks should win, should have won, this series. Let's see what happens game 7.
Completely agree
If the bucks didn’t choke this woulda been a close out game….
Playin harden as much as they r is stupid... the bucks r essentially playin 5v4. If harden plays heavy minutes in game 7 the bucks will win this series...
