KD has always been damned if you do damned if you don't. All in all he's a generational talent who has been fun to watch ball TF out for years! The NBA season is almost here!!! Go Bulls!!
They already have cheerleaders go and join them.
Go bulls 😂
Go Bulls💀
Overrated diva
Bulls?
Kyrie n his walking stick gets me every time 💀💀shot out
Kyrie not afraid to be himself.
Wacko lol
@@bamf6603 kyrie should be afraid of himself because he’s the one ruining his career. Nobody else can stop him. If Kyrie deleted Twitter he could be MVP. Instead he’ll be feuding with Simmons over who’s the real PG, who’s the #2 on the team (if Simmons even plays). Nobody in the league has more to prove this season, and nobody takes worse advice.
@@madeofcoconuts bro he a mutl millionaire he can do as he please he doesn’t need a career atp he has a level a financial freedom everyone dreams of & kyrie barely is on twitter i think it’s kd who u talkin abt but what’s wrong with them having social media there not slaves they can live their life as they please & ben simmons is a past first player kyrie is a scorer first player jsut like kyrie let harden run the offense im sure he’ll have no problem wit ben running it either & y would u got stop listening to the media so much makes u so retarted
@@madeofcoconuts lol I was thinkin what to say to bamf , couldnt a said it better myself💯...but hes technically right so I just left it hahah
That's probably the most mature I've heard KD speak in that interview
That Ricky Rubio to Jared Allen game-winning oop was one of the moments of the season. Surprise delightful moment!
It was indeed a moment that happened in the season
@@MelinoeIII And what a moment it was!
The only way the nets win is if Ben Simmons finds out he’s shooting with the wrong hand
The guy is 6'10 I dont know why everyone is hell bent on he shooting 3's
@@MannysTechWorld he doesn't need to shoot 3's
He should just shoot something
@@MannysTechWorld fr tho 😂 he just needs to be himself, be tough on defense and facilitate for his teammates. We havent seen him in a nets uniform and people have already wrote him off
@@MannysTechWorld the next 3 ben simmons makes its the 6th for his career 😄.. henny Smith beat that total in a half, high as shit
@@MannysTechWorld i agree but that man could take you in the post and shoot middies he hasnt done that since his first 20 games if ben could at least attempt middies it would make a hell of a diffrences and he has attempted them and he has hit them the question is why not now why not the other seasons why not the other 60 games his 1st season? he just stopped attempting them and nobody knows why i really hope he comes back he 6 10 who can stop that man on the post?
Always nice when A.M. Hoops uploads. I love the videos man!
Appreciate it!
@@AMHoops We not getting Kawhi videos??
at least KD was really real about his future, and hey at least they were being honest about this
Kd a drama queen ring chasing crybaby 😂 go join there cheerleading squad
yaaaaaaaaaaa
@@moondogg007 tell us something we dont know but he aint a crybaby
@@moondogg007 atleast he better than you while you sitting in your bed commenting on CZcams🤡
That's a low bar lol
I'm actually surprised that KD was very open about this to the press
one of your new subscribers, I just found your content, so entertaining
don't forget that Seth Curry also was interviewed at media day ... he is a crucial part imo to Nets 3p% and ball handling/playmaking.
it's disrespectful that NEVER Seth Curry is mantioned by people just cause of he is not his brother as defeault reason
Seth is not that important. The key secondary pieces are Royce O'Neal, TJ Warren and Simmons.
Bro, i like your content and really u keep getting better
these are great keep it up
Thanks, will do!
I loved KDs interview, he was open, honest, and mature about everything
but nah according to this bozo KD basically said nothing
@@Monkeycow he didn’t say he said nothing, he said he was lying, which he was. It’s on nets fans if they don’t trust him after literally demanding his coach and GM getting fired and that was after demanding to before that
KD is good but he can’t carry a team, like Steph Curry. He’s been in Thunder for so long, he got good players around him, but he never win a championship.
AM Hoops is goated with the uploads
I don't knock KD for anything he said. He's being honest and realistic. Also, he DID go out there every night and give his best. The failure of the nets last year was not his fault
you sound like ur kd on a face account
@@Resilient1923 you sound like a hater
@@marox5450 facts
He needs 73-9 team.
@@Resilient1923 sshhhhh
Great stuff Casey!
I don't know if there's really anything to dissect in what KD has said. I felt like he was pretty straight forward with his answers about the future and what he believes should be ideal for a healthy working place, instead of making empty promises of staying forever or winning tons of rings. He also talked very highly about the teams he played for in the past, so... I'd advise anyone to watch the full interview, unless you want to keep this drama narrative going on inside your heads.
1:18 I'd advise people to watch the video before commenting. He literally put the "mentioning Steph" part in this video. No "if I'm not mistaken" needed if you actually watch
Did you even watch the video? Hahahaha
@@MrE_ Agreed, guys like these that comment first are just littering in the comment sections lmao
My bad. I've watched the whole video, yes, but somehow missed that Curry and the Warriors part. I'll edit it so it doesn't trigger you ppl anymore. xD
What’s the interview called
Wow
I’m early
This vids gonna be great!
Casey 🔥 Video. My Boy is killing it, the 🐐 of NBA CZcams Videos. 💯
Bro "No Cap" appreciate the work you do,
you better than ESPN nowadays
3 years? He really means 90 games in three years.
also tried to fire the coach and management... who he helped bring in the first place. Thats a backstabbing snake move.
I love how he said 3 years, as if he played at all the first year. Dude sat on his fat ass and got paid for his name.
@CH then he should shut up about how much he contributed in his three years. He talks like he saved the team in his three years. He sat on the bench most of those three years so his "contributions" were minimal. But he did contribute to the dysfunction of the team and he contributed to the team being swept in the first round of the playoffs during which he could not stop dribbling the ball of his foot and turning the ball over.
@CH he led for maybe two seconds. Then, when healthy he was swept in the first round because he couldn't stop dribbling the ball off his foot and turning the ball over. Curry led the mvp race too but he went on to win another chip and won fmvp.
Dude Ty for putting a timer mark at the end of ur aura add so I could skip through it and watch ur content. 1000 iq move.
thanks for putting timestamps on your videos, esp on ads
The part where he showed harden vs the kings I laughed so hard!.🤣
Best video in a while Casey...
Thank you for tagging the different chapters, so I can skip the sponsor's one
Defense will dictate the nets' ceiling, offensively they've always been a top team
Bum simmons is what it depends on u can come back here if there are more reports of him and injuries
The way he mentioned curry is funny
This roster is very good! I’m looking forward to how the play with Ben and new additions.
I have a feeling you're not enjoying any of the nets sh*tshow now :o(
@@JustMeELC 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 perfect timing bro
@@peterjazii6925 Sorry lol
I don't see this Nets team being like the 98 Bulls. Simmons needs to be as good as Rodman was for there to be a remote chance of that happening and... Just like the 98 Bulls, they need a guy to dominate both ends of the court like MJ did to even have a whiff of contention, and that ain't happening.
Listening to Durant sounds like listening to the White House press secretary
Durant was actually honest, total 180
I'm ready for this team to implode before the playoffs.
Not gonna lie I took some shots at Ben Simmons over the seasons like most people lol but I still want to see the man succeed he has so much potential to be close too if not on Giannis’ level. I want to see the man take his game to the next level everyone’s been waiting to see
He wont but he’ll be a great defender and passer for them
Just subscribed
Hope your allergies stop bothering you soon, keep up the awesome vids 👍.
I don’t think he’s missing Steph and the Warriors. He just gave an example.
Yep. These media trolls will say anything to drum up false drama.
In the next news, he want Ben Simmons to be the "Draymond Green" in his team. It seemed he truly missed them.
As fans we are picking at stuff way too much , the media doesn’t help at all. Like why troll Ben about 3s when there’s giannis balling and putting up HOF #s with out a jumper like that
Bc Giannis will attempt a shot beyond 3 feet from the hoop and isn’t scared to shoot. Simmons free throw shooting makes him less likely to be physical near the basket and at this point I’ll believe he’ll ever shoot jumpers when I see it
KD doesn’t have to commit to the Nets. He gave a good answer. Mans balled out last year, that team was just a mess
Hearing KD talking about the Warriors is hilarious. Just take another L bro
KD doesn't want to be relied on. He doesn't want that kind of pressure.
He doesn’t want a team that can’t do shit if he gets injured. He was the only reason they where the first seed in the beginning of the season and the second he went down the the team forgot how to play basketball
I turned on bell 🔔 icon but no notification 😶
Kyrie Irving & Ben Simmons officially BFF now 😂🤣😂
I think if they want to win a championship, as i saw the roster that they have currently, they need a starting center, cause Claxton (with the respect to him) is not a starting center. He is very solid BACKUP center. They have him and Day'ron Sharpe. If we're looking at championship contenders centers, we can see something. In that position they are the weakest center squad. Even Simmons if he's gonna play at this position (when it comes to small ball) is not that they're looking for.
Anyone who thinks that Ben Simmons can play center after an 18 month layoff and back surgery is being unrealistic. He can't bang against Embiid, Adebayo, J. Allen, Giannis, etc. all season. He hasn't played the position. And the Nets can't play Claxton and Simmons at the same time, not enough shooting.
@CH I love your optimism, and I hope the Nets make it work. But while Simmons will probably be adequate in the regular season, the playoffs will be a different story. Nets are the boom or bust team this year.
Kd and Kyrie shouldn’t have gotten Allen moved bc they wanted their boy Deandre to get a indefensible contract
finally the goat basketball channel posted
If they had Miles Turner Id be all in on this team. Still think they gonna struggle defensively especially with players like Embiid and Joker.
Dude, are you aware that when KD was healthy they were in 1st place for like 3 months, with a part time Kyrie? They only slipped because KD got injured, literally. So, now they have a full time Kyrie, closed all the holes on the perimeter by adding TJ Warren and Royce O'neal, kept Seth, Mills and Harris added Simmons and you're talking about Embed and Joker? Do you know how fast this team is gonna be? Newsflash...the NBA is now small ball....did you not see the Warriors just win a chip with a 6'7 Draymond as the starting center? Keep believing they will struggle against slow big men.
@@mikehammer1777 2 things.
1) I am well aware that the warriors jump Looney who is 6'9 and Draymon who is 6'7 at C. Newsflash to you my man they both got eaten alive by joker lol and the Nuggest were only blown out because their other 2 best players were out of the series. Please if you are going to comment do so thoroughly this kind of half baked ima slant it and tell 1 side is non sense its as bad as clickbait stuff. Is the NBA faster yes, were the warriors dominated by embiid yes were the nuggets missing their 2 best players and added better role players this offseason yes. You gotta count for it all. The playoffs are about match ups and if they got the Nuggets fully healthy early it could be a problem same with the Nets if they catch the 76ers early and no one can check embiid that is gonna be a problem. A
2) I agree that the Nets are a really good team shoot i have been screaming that the D is gonna be legit and that offense can be great. That's the problem tho with the nets its 3 years of maybe if coulda shoulda. The fact also is that they are small and their rim protection is not great that is a fact having smaller players bang with bigger stronger players (ala kevins injury where he had to guard C's) can cause injuries and wear and tear on the body. It's why players like AD out right refuse to play C.
I am not saying they can't win it all as constructed I am not even saying the 76ers or bucks would beat them (tho i think the bucks would) I am saying id feel a lot better if they had someone like Turner to give them real rim protection and can step out and knock down shots.
@@dustinsirois4788 the Nets centers are terrible and don't fit with Simmons. The problem is getting a shooting center without trading away needed players. I would do Curry and Patty plus a pick for Myles Turner. The alternative is Harris plus a pick but Harris is a better defender than Curry and Patty. They could also do Cam Thomas for Isaiah Jackson as an alternative to Turner. Isaiah Jackson is Myles Turner's understudy and can do most of what Turner can do for a fraction of the price. Other shooting centers include Jalen Smith and Olynik. You either get a shooting center or Simmons plays the 5 and you surround him with floor spacers.
@@almac9203 I agree with everything. I'd want them to play Simmons at C but I don't think he can hold u a whole yr hence the thought of Turner who is a placeholder name the point was exactly what you said a c that can rim protect and shoot as you can't have 2 non shooters starting and Ben has proven if nothing else that he is a non shooter.
@@mikehammer1777 Looney was the starting center man
Ngl I’m rooting for Simmons this year, I hope he proves us all wrong
I think this is his last chance before he gets blackballed from the nba
5:04 Ah, I was going to jump on the thought process and even ask: What about your right-handed shots? You thought about switching your shooting hand once upon a time.
It’s honestly incredible that he hasn’t even attempted giving it a try. I legitimately think he’s shooting with his offhand his entire career 😂
7:38 his facial expression is comedy 😅😂
Definitely some oy vey vibes lol
everyone's doubts on Simmons can easily be fixed if you stick him as a small forward and him just come to grips that he needs to practice at that position and stay there if he has bad shooting then he could be more effective with midrange and post they have guards so he isn't needed for that position man up do something unexpected and ball the hell out
KD said to draw conclusions from history. He will do his part and won't do anything better. He cares as much as he had before, even if it means he doesn't.
That's why happened!
1. Kyrie Irving has not been Vaccinated
2. James Harden Trade fro Ben Simmons
3. KD Injury of his Knee
4. Nets Swept by the Celtics in the First Round
5. Kevin Durant Trade Request & Kyrie Irving Trade
I think Ben is going to ball out, point forward style. He is going to have to do better off the ball and so will Kyrie, but I think they make it work.
Public perception has gone so bad for KD and Kyrie that they have all the reasons to stick together for this year. KD has always wanted to be the player-manager guy that the media loves, just like LeBron. Now he IS the player-manager guy, but the media hates him, so he has to show something just to fix this public relation disaster.
Leading a winning team culture takes more than scoring.
Media Day; the last time you will see kd with a fresh haircut 💇♂️
He has no reason to be angry. He's set for life.
Reporter: "how many 3s are you going to take this season?"
Simmons: " who knows (laughingly)"
A.M. Hoops: "is this a joke to you?". Bruh do you expect him to give a specific number like 367? Wtf!
Shoulda just been real and said zero lol
Good video
Glad you enjoyed
Nets-Bucks eastern conference finals
The Nets have a chance if they try hard and work together.
The nets have a chance if kyrie stops being a retard and ben simmons actually plays
im not angry but im just laughing 😂😂at the moment he said that KD is top 5😂😂😂
Kev calling out the coaching
Nets can be the 1st seed or the 10th seed equally. More skewed to the 10th seat in my eyes. All it takes is 1 controversy to happen or a KD injury and they will be in the same situation as last year. And they don't have Harden anymore the only player proven that he can lead a team
I knew you would cut out the part where he mention Luka too not just Steph.
I want to see Ben Simmons come out and play his best this season, I think he motivated again.
i mean the man did play 45 mins every games in the playoffs with the Bucks 2 years back... after that it was the injuries that messed up his flow... let's not say that the only thing he's proven is to create chaos within the team... kinda disheartening
When you have a big three someone usually takes a backseat and their scoring dips, they have to focus on the dirty work, defend, and make plays… but that’s exactly what Ben is elite at. Like he will close games at the 5. We saw him a year and change ago drop 42-9-12 at the 5 with Mike Scott, Tobias Harris, Danny Green, and Tyrese Maxey. I’d take the 6-8th man on the Nets before Tobias in the corner for 3. Now add Kyrie, Seth, Joe, and Kevin? Ben Simmons is gonna be lethal.
IF this team is healthy and bought in (big IF obviously) they have one of best roster constructions (skill/fit alone) 1-8 in NBA
At least KD was real about his future. Better than making false promises 🤷♂️ We may disagree with what they say at times but I like how KD and Kyrie keep it real and speak their mind
KD maybe, but Kyrie gotta censor some of his thoughts before people think he's crazy, well, crazier
@@josephchoi7336 meh, we all know that isn’t happening so might as well just enjoy the show lol
As a nets fan, I have zero doubts about KD. I agree with him about saying if you do have doubts its on you, because it is.
Lets go Heat 🔥
That’s crazy you have a picture of KD with his hair brush?
These "big 3 idiots" are unparalleled in the history of the NBA.
Bubble Warren making a come backkkk
The Sulklyn nets should be interesting this season. That's a lot of egos and divas for one team
ben not draining 3, makes his play predictable. minus 1 gameplan option when you have pg cant shot 3. in playoff thats gonna be a big hole for nets, if they can make it to postseason.
Lmao hearing KD talk is so funny. SUCH A DIVA!!He thinks the world revolves around him.. he needs a reality check. He wanted his own team and when it doesn't win when he's not there he wants out...DIVA!
That's what I don't like about KD sometimes...
@@RentFreeInsideYourDamnHead amen bro
When he was healthy the nets were the number 1 seed when he came back they were fighting for a play in spot
You're just a bandwagoner on that KDs train hate. Needing his own team doesn't mean he doesn't need support.
Casey are you of Irish descent? Just curious. Cheers brother. You're fkn A+
Kyrie said he “honored” KDs trade request
So KD was sitting there thinking I’ve insulted the owner, GM, and Coach. Who am I missing? Oh right the team.
I can see Nash stepping down this year if this team starts off horribly. The Nets can’t fire him until the season ends (should have been replaced him before that). They should be good on paper tho lol
Nah he would be a champion in Brooklyn if his foot wasn't too big so I see his point on what he means with what he shown.
He’d be in the finals, nothing is a guarantee at that point
yaaas queeen 💅🏻
We need your West prediction
Still waiting for that Nuggets preview, Casey
The first time for long time i agree with Kyrie😂😂😂😂
Will see what happens
A.M. Hoops
are you giving me my rewards? I mean there is notification says that I am part of your shortlist winners..
Kd Nd Kyrie have soo much talent. Net will win and with Ben will help. Sad that Knicks have no shot
WE NEED AN EXPLANATION FOR QUIN COOKS 500 MILLION! His net worth is 500 million but no one knows how literally search it up
I don't get comments about Ben Simmons answers. What did you expect, to tell you exact number of threes he will shoot? It has to be tongue in cheek answers after all he has gone through.
Nice.
Jaylen Brown next video A.M. Hoops 🙏🙏
Who gets injured first kurie or kd
Based on the responses in this video, I'm not sure if Ben Simmons was undertrained or overtrained for this media day interview.
How bout he wasn’t either
The only way they win is by stop relaying on the dribble and shoot type of game don't work on the highest stage
KD mentions Steph. So cute
there wasn't a video here...
A.M. hoops single handily better than espn for me 👍
My problem with this is he used to say the warriors system doesn't work, but then makes this claim. The system is for the non super star players to be productive. Super star players go beyond the Xs and Os. Then you said you didn't need a coach and you and Kyrie Irving could be the coach, well new coach Iso ball doesn't work out side of top 20 NBA talent.
