“If healthy” lol 😂…. Thats what they said about the nets…. “If healthy” 😂😂😂😂
Also “the west is wide open” … 😂bruh the west was just as wide open last year and nobody was saying that.. tf is the media saying
@@user-xv1sr3uy7p Exactly 😂
And the clippers more so than any team.
AD has entered the chat
It’s always an excuse for the snake
The “if healthy” argument literally applies to every single team lol
Knicks, pistons, magic, pacers, kings, etc are teams that is doesn’t apply to. Doesn’t matter how healthy they are 😂😂😂
Yeah but it applies more to some than others. All 3 of the Suns stars have shown a propensity for injury especially in the last couple of years.
You can count on teams like Milwaukee or Boston more in that department compared to teams like the Suns, Clipper, Lakers, Philly etc.
Especially the suns
The difference here is that all three (KD CP3 Booker) all have to be healthy because this team has to outscore everyone to win due to the lack of defense they now have. CP3 even when healthy can't play defense on anyone...
I'm more fascinated with Rob's multi-tasking ability.
😂 right? He always seems like he has something better to do/ doesnt want to be there
So rude and unprofessional. It’s embarrassing.
@@tyrellleach1846 it comes off so terribly 😂😂
@@bigroncoleman11 1000% it crazy rude haha
Especially when they are together in person not like he is breaking anything bew
The Warriors felt scary when KD went there but this feels like another what if team.
Suns are the favorites. But cris Paul and devin booker are not Steph curry and Klay Thompson. Those guys were battle tested and knew how to win a championship already
it's bc steph and klay were already made men when durant went to gsw. paul and dbook not at that status yet.
@@spenser6353 That CP3 is older and Books hamstrings are not always ready.
Kd for sure knew cp3 playoffs injury
For real
I feel like we have been here before recently ... 3 stars teaming up, immediate overreaction, proclamation of how good they will be and now the rest of the league is on notice *sneezes nets* ... I'm not falling for this again. Looks good on paper but going to wait this one out!
I bet Ben Simmons is freaking the hell out. He can't hide anymore. He'll likely feign an injury to sit out the rest of the season unless he's traded.
Ben Simmons about to turn into udonis haslem
Simmons might be out of the league after his current contract is up. This professional basketball thing might not be for him after all.
They need to play him at center with his back to the basket.
dude is mentally broken
@@rdogletree4543 LoL
Clippers should blow up their roster if they don’t win a championship, they had PG and Kawhi for 4 years and literally nothing to show for it but a injury report
can we get my guy a headset he doesn’t have to hold up like a 90’s cell phone? 😂
Rob talks about KD with kid gloves every time
Durant is going to elevate a team with the best record in the league last year and was in the finals the year before that. Heavy lifting.
Last year and two years ago. Is this the new excuse? They weren't even remotely close to being considered a title contender THIS year. Why are we talking about the last two years?
KD always needs atleast 2 all stars
True but Chris Paul ain’t a all star.. he is an old man that pulls his hamstring walking up the stairs
Chris Paul is not that. And Bron needs the same
There's only 1 other Allstar on that team. Boston is still a better team.
Just like Lebron for 3 of his 4 championships, and the other championship was with a superstar PF top 5 player.
No all stars on Phoenix this year
KD comes in and makes everybody's job easier. I think this relieves pressure from CP3 and DA. Both Chris and DeAndre don't need to worry about their stats they just need to go out and play with high energy now. DA will see so much open paint. DA's going to have more dunks in this third of a season and finals run than he's had in his whole career!! CP3 is going to have like a 30-plus assist game. CP3 might have to hit Scott with some new Styles!!!
DJ Broussard 😂😂
Rob with the groundbreaking takes.
Middleton has actually been decent since his return, in the last 7 games he's giving them 16/4/3 in 19 minutes per game on 49FG% and 95% from the line
Great Stats keeping wow
These two took flip flopping aka set tripping to a whole new meaning
Put more faith into a team with an injury proned 34 and 38 year old and a guy who choked last year. But then the Lakers barely got any better they didn’t even get good enough to make the playoffs 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@michaelbarnes2126 who are you talking about?
@@professorzoom7800 Rob and Chris
@@michaelbarnes2126 lmao you think lakers better than the suns? Delusional.
@@Joes35 did I say the Laker were better? No idiot but I believe in the Lakers before I’ll believe in a Suns team with no perimeter defense, 2 fragile stars and a guy who choked last year in Booker. Nets 2.0 except in the West 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Would love to see them matched up with MAVS again. Great rivalry in the making...
Boston and Milwaukee made kd leave the east with a first round sweep 😂🤔🤡
The bucks didn’t sweep them
You sound dumb 😆 keep it up
@@kendarius23 Boston swept them
@@devontacosby8593 yes I know that but u said the bucks too I was just saying the bucks didn’t sweep them but Boston mostly definitely did
@@kendarius23 no I was including the bucks in with one of the teams that make kd leave the east with a first round sweep
I know the Warriors don’t look too good right now but I am not canceling them out.. especially after last season
That’s if they face injured riddle team for hunnid time lol
@@Owatupcuz kinna like lebron faced an injured team in a bubble where he got 4 months off and didn't have to travel?
@@j317 bruh.... Im not even a Lebron fan but some of yall haters are WILD. They talking about Steph.... You do know if someone talks ball you dont have to bring up Lebron everytime. Is that all you think about? You care more about Lebron than the fan boys 😂 even if we all agree you are right how does that prove or disprove anything either of them said? Plus the video is about KD... 💀
@@tyrellleach1846 no it's cuzz most people that try to discredit the warriors are lebron fans
@@j317 for one that not true. For two even if it was you are assuming he is a Lebron fan because he doesnt like the warriors... You are proving my point exactly. There are 30 teams in the league. Not everyone is a warriors/ Lakers fan. Thousands of players have played the game.. If someone mentioned steph you gotta cry about lebron. If someone mentions lebron you gotta cry about jordan... Ita all old news. Media BS. Lebron and steph havent played each other in the playoffs since 2018 😂 lebron just beat the scoring record give the man his flowers just like you did steph when he beat the 3 pt record.. Get over it
Why is Chris holding his headset the whole show 🤔
my guess, he’s protecting his hair. doesn’t want the headset on his head so he’s holding it🤷🏾♂️
Elevate Booker and Paul, that's not elevation, it's just adding more weapons lol
KD literally couldn’t go a week without being on a team with at least one HOFer 😭🤣. Low-key funny.
Kinda like Lebron, right?
@@youdub7926 No need to compare bus drivers and bus riders
You been listen to nick to much labron has not one not one ring with a hof
@@ayahia wade bus driver kyrie hit the shot and AD led in every stat and was the best player on the team😭
Name a championship team without two hof players
As a diehard Philadelphia sports fan I felt when Chris said about the sixers “Philly is just…Philly.”
“If you went down and listed all the great players he played with… there’s not enough room on the Internet” 🤣🤣
FYI - I’m not knocking Chris. I just thought that line was funny lol
Not his fault they want to play wit him
@@mr.bubbles8351 No diss to CP. I just thought that line was funny.
True...but how many of those same players have won as a #1 option by themselves?
@@twilitezn No number 1 option can win it by themselves Ginnais had Khris and Jrue , Steph had Klay , Dray , Wiggins & Poole , Lebron had AD and a gŕeat supporting cast . Teamates / chemistry are essential bro
@@grvmbinoscott7163 Dirk, and Giannis won without sidekick superstars....
Denver is still the BEST in Da West
Same with the lakers...no excuses they are stacked now
Ya'll do know Durant has never won a chip without Steph Curry.
Jordan never won without Pippen
And steph has never made the playoffs without klay. Not kds fault Gianni’s injured kyrie.
@@brendanbloom3366 Nets were down by 20 when Kyrie got hurt in gm 4.
@@samuelgainey8336 they were down 4. Stop lying.
Rob Parker is a great sports / journalist when he has his head in game and not on his cell phone texting .lmao
Lmaoooo
That’s crazy how kd haven’t been a phx suns for 24 hours and these dudes already labeling Chris Paul as the scapegoat 😂😂🤡 instead of kd being the best player on the team and world ( SUPPOSEDLY) and just is a bus rider😂🤔🤡
HOW IS KD A BUS RIDER.......
Lol for real Rob Parker already got his scapegoat in CP3 if things don't go right instead of the best player in Durant now switch Durant with Lebron and Rob would say championship or bust and place all the blame on bron if things don't go right in fact he wouldn't even give bron an injury excuse
@wild100sq5 KD has never been a leader on a team that won anything. He went to Brooklyn to prove he could lead a team only to ask for a trade twice.
Now again he request to be traded to a stacked team. He is a great player but definitely not a bus driver.
Bus drivers do not request trades.
@@keithcooper04 the Suns is stacked????
The number one team in the west last season, and predicted to win the west this season before Booker got injured. They also have Deandre Ayton, Chris Paul(a leader), and now they have one of the best scorers ever.
The Phoenix Suns are now the favorites to win it all. If this was simply as KD being on a team, then the Nets would have been the favorites.
Dang Rob put the phone down you can make your fantasy picks after the show
The ODD Couple is the best sports show! 🔥
Let these guys play before giving predictions. The media love to steer the narrative. Everyone want their team to win.
Exactly. And BOTH of these guys claim to be unbiased reporters who don't have pom-poms. That's absolutely 🧢
I get it. Ive already seen so many Suns fans coming out of no where 😂 bu that being said... Its kind of their job... Lol what else are they supposed to talk about after the deadline?
They just can’t get off KDs meat. No matter what he does, they expect him to obliterate everyone. But at the same time, Broussard can’t stop hating on him. I see why KD hates the media.
West is open and they should be the favorites.... What's the problem? It's called expectations and you get those if you wanna be the best...
Health, Health, Health I’m with Rob on this one.
When will people realize outside of GS, KD is not a threat to win anything When he has to be the man
Durant RAN from the Celtics...With Durant the team we have now is good enough to compete in the East all we needed was another big
KD has like a 2 year window to win a title. If he doesn’t get it then it’ll never happen bc by then he’d be 36 and well past his prime. Won’t be an elite player anymore.
4 first round picks was crazy though. Nets got a haul!
He gon want a trade soon
@@HungGottiYoCarti82328 Maybe but I feel like this is gonna be his retirement team like it will be for CP3.
It is not a colossal failure! There are other really good teams in the west
Thank you. This isn’t the Golden State move where they had no competition. Like you said, there are really good teams in the West AND the East that have years of chemistry. Give it some time
Agreed
What other team in the west thats comparable to the line up that Phoenix got 4 of the starting 5 for Phoenix is legit Allstar caliber players the should at least win the west
Yes it will be because y'all claim Durant is the best player in the world and said he was better than lebron a prime lebron would easily win with this team even current day lebron would get a finals trip minimum
@@kapptinafrikaaah371 the teams that dont have 3 injury prone stars... Im hoping they all stay healthy because it will be fun to watch but cp3 and Durant get injured every year and booker is coming off of an injury right now
KD just keeps chasing new cities. After this many tries, just doesn't feel the same
steph is the only player that stayed with his team and never requested a trade because the organization properly built around him. outside of dame, everyone else wants an actual chance at winning. russ, harden, lebron, kyrie, cp3, AD and more all switched teams to win
@@vintagemonte not really their fault that a team can't properly draft/build around them properly. not everybodys born into the perfect team and a city that everybody wants to come play for. ad and bron are perfect examples of that. even dame is.
@@huh1387 no i agree. my point is steph’s situation is an outlier and absolutely not the norm. fans should expect player movement
@@vintagemonte ah fair
He is not viewed by many as top 5… just cause he is in your little circle doesn’t mean we all think it
Right?! That last is straight disrespectful. Where the hell is John Stockton?
I think that Denver led by Nikola Jokic Jamal Murray, Aaron Gordon and Michael Porter Jr are the team to beat in the West unless and until proven otherwise.
that lineup sounds like a 2nd round exit, to me.
@@garywest2250 They're (Denver) number 1 seed in the West right now and if they retain the #1 seed throughout the regular season and playoffs good luck because there is no Boston, Milwaukee or Joel Embid in the West. Obviously the Lakers are a particularly dangerous wild card if 'Bron and AD stay healthy. I say that Denver comes out of the West and if not Denver Im betting that LeBron James reminds the Basketball world that he can still win at the highest level in this league and if they (The Lakers) stay healthy and jell they could make a run.
Rob's nose is in that phone more than the show
Chris B., They need to complete their roster first in the buyout market. As is they are interesting but not finished
Im not a cp3 fam but he is a traditional pg n never tried to score alot but could. Right now if he wanted he avg 25 but he hasn't ever played that way

Cp3, Book and KD = Mid-range mafia
I'm a Durant fan but there's no denying the fact that he's failed to win everywhere except with a team who won a championship before him and after him.
In other words don’t let KD try to build a brand new house or it will collapse on ya.
As a Durant fan he’s one of the best players ever and professional sports are rigged so pay me and enjoy me why you can
This a FACT he gotta win now or his legacy take a hit
When you say fail, arrive you referring to championships or winning and being a top team with a shot at the chip? Because you sound like a hater in disguise. Respectfully
@@choosenone20901 exactly. He isn't a KD fan.
lets be REAL: lebron teaming-up with anthony davis & westbrook then changin his team 5 times in 2 seasons & still not makin the play-in game, is the BIGGEST FAILURE in history💯
They have a 3 year window, less then 30 games to get it right is I think a lot of pressure. I would say in the next 2 seasons they need to win 1
Nah their window is now lol… They need to win it this season… For cp3 sake
Rob rarely gives grounded takes. He’s either high or low.
Man they have like 30 something games too build chemistry, he’s hurt, already had Achilles, and all type of other injuries. No one was saying that about Kobe.
He’s definitely no Kobe
It won’t be a colossal failure. They have 27 games AT THE MOST go find some sort of chemistry. CO is old and injury prone. Aton has been known to pout and disappear (except against Anthony Davis) and they’ve essentially gutter their defense.
If this was the start of the season, more teams would be a little more fearful.
Lol. Look at all the great teammates KD has played with? Outside of GS. Ledouble Standards
Does Lebron have pressure to make the playoffs?!😂
Lbj won with every team, kd played with okc and crooklyn nets, and he came up short
@@devontacosby8593💯🎯✌🏾
probably not a huge deal, but rob being on his phone constantly is a bad look.
The Media won't let it happen cause they are already calling them 3 Perimeter players. NO team with 3 Perimeter players will win.
Rockets made WCF with inside players Hakeem, Barkely and Drexler was the wing.
Miami had a PF and Lebron is really an Interior player.
Why is Denver being ignored as a West contender? This is the first time they’ve been healthy since the bubble and they made the conf finals that year. They shouldn’t be overlooked.
I guess CP doesn't have an injury history that ALWAYS seems to flare up during the playoffs.
I trust monty Williams and cp3 will make plays to get durant on the right spots for easy buckets against the physicality of Boston
well it's not an instant..🤷🤦💯
Maybe if CP3 was 3-5 years younger it would be more of a surety. They’re bench is suspect.
"Memphis is immature and young"
Yeah they ain't contenders ..
Think they need a piece n replace d brooks with better player
They will only play together for 38 games. All they have is a chance like everyone else. Give them a full season together then get back to us.
This just makes any team coming out from the West be exhausted and maybe more injured. East just got much weaker again like when Lebron was playing there. Wild wild west all over again
I disagree with this take...because they lost two defensive guys in the trade...so they bench might not be strong enough yet
But the have KD I thought he was the best since Jordan
Street Clothes!!!
Wow! Complete disrespect of the Warriors! Doesn't matter they're regular season issues, they are still the champs! Still the team to beat! And until that happens, you can't just count them out!!
BOOK AND KD WILL PLAY FOR 3 YEARS GUYS.. THEY WILL MAKE MOVES AND HOPE THEY TAKE SOME ROLE PLAYERS AND MAKE A SURPRISE..!!.. WE ARE BORED BOSTON AND LA.. HOPE A NEW FRANCHISE CELEBRATE AND WE TOGETHER..!!😛🙂
CP3 in John Stockton category
Why do people forget KD struggles so easily, he struggled vs the grizz and lost 4-1. Choked a 3-1 lead VS GSW and got swept by the celtics playing poorly as the FAV.
Golden State knew how to defend KD I'm not betting against dubs
Jokic would slice that pheonix defense right up . They lost their on ball defenders . Who can they put on guys like lebron kawhi pg . Hell even sga and zion .
IF SUNS DONT WIN KD IS NOT A TOP 10 PLAYER OF ALL TIME! I LOVE KD BUT I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA TAKE THE NETS TO AT LEAST THE ECF 😓😓
Even if they do win he still ain’t top 10. That would literally be the one and only time in his career he was able to actually lead a team to the title.
had he not had to beat the bucks/celtics, maybe he would have.
Gotta cut PHX some slack if they dont win it this year. I don’t want to personally but it’s necessary because they will only have a half a season to build chemistry. Next year no excuses
Now it’s chemistry? Kd fits in perfect. Suns knew that trading for kd at the deadline might cause delayed chemistry, but suns wouldn’t have done that trade If they didn’t think they couldn’t win this year. Gimme a break u 🤡
KD did ok in playoffs vs Bucks without having lots of help
There's absolutely no pressure on the Celtics to win it all. Whatever?
2 dudes that can't seem to get it done is all of a sudden great . Haven't we read this book before? Durant or Paul coming up short...Again
I’m a massive Suns fan, but I think the expectations are unfair. The team has about 20 games or so to play together and try to get some chemistry down. If they don’t reach the WCF that’s a massive fail. But a team like the Nuggets are a legit threat. I love the move, but I also believe in chemistry. Even a team like the Lakers has already won a title with their two best players. Lack of games played together was a big part as to why the Nets failed.
I think this is more so a multi year all in move. If they don’t win a title within the next two seasons, it’s a fail, but I honestly don’t expect everything to click right away. They’ll have one month to play together before playoffs
I wonder if it bothers Chris when Rob is on his phone while he talks, or if he just doesn't care anymore.
It drives me crazy especially now that they are face-to-face but that is just Rob at this point and it seems like he still responds to questions so it hasn't been a problem that I have seen.
Smack the phone out of his hands.. 👏🤔👏
Look at Chris’ face at the end of the vid, he definitely bothered by it.
They expect a team that ain’t play a game together to win this season
Man, kd hasn't even made it to Phoenix yet and the knives are out, kyrie got a better introduction from the media
The media hates Phoenix because they aren't a big market team.
How the nets f****d this super team up is utterly baffling and in the end for harden, Kylie and KD they got Simmons, couple starters and mid to late picks, my goodness! The nets are officially the browns, lions, orioles or whoever else fits the (bill). Pun intended.
Durant went to Phoenix to win championships and in turn will help Chris, Booker and the team Phx win. Period. So when KD healed to playing form again, they can get accustomed to each other and wn championships.🎶💞
How can rob constantly have his face in the phone the whole time brou speaks. Shameful.
"Big Three" is a highly flawed concept. But when one of the three is CP3, it is less flawed. Although he is a superstar, he doesn't need to score a lot to be happy. He CAN score but doesn't have an ego or game style that demands it.
CP3 is kinda old. Calling this team a big 3 is a stretch.
@@depannist I don't disagree but that term WILL be used to death about this team. Witness the Lakers. 38 yr OLD/weakened LBron, highly flawed Westbrook, and injury and angst laden AD. Hardly an effective group but they are continually referenced as a "big 3"
I wonder what 19 year old waitress rob is texting the whole show
There hyping up this team just like that did to Brooklyn when they joined up… don’t be quick to jump on the train, CP is injury prone KD is injured and Booker just got back from injury … on paper there great but who knows
They really taking about cp3 when they have Kevin freaking Durant is crazy!! KD always gets a slap on the wrist
If the Suns don't win CP3 will retire. Having KD there is like his last best chance at a ring.
didnt the suns just make it to the finals?? how would this redeem Durant?
Broussard is a grown man saying the word "heck" is hilarious. What the hell is heck.
He does not use profanity, not everyone curses. Also he is a Christian and using profanity is a sin.
@@keithcooper04 hell is not a curse word. The word hell is in the Bible.
Although that maybe true, unless he is talking about the place. He not going to use the word, and there are people that do not use it as well in conversation.
There are plenty other words one can use to describe happiness, anger, etc. I speak the same way as Broussard. I use no profanity, so I am not surprised when he says things. That is all I am saying.
Get a life
IF LAKERS DON'T MAKE THE FINALS..... MORE OF A COLOSSAL FAILURE!!!
"Philly is...Philly. Ya know?" 😭😭😭
Luka doncic by himself best this team...what are they talking about? Cp3 n booker haven't proven anything for this team to be scary. It's nothing like how gsw was.
Suns biggest issue will be age and heath. This was the issue with the Nets.
Boi rob eyes light up every time golden state is doing bad
Broussard always trying to label something a failure. Dude cut it out.
Why is Rob playing on his phone this whole segment? You’re on video too. Look professional. Love the show. Just giving some constructive criticism.
It gotta be annoying talking to a cohost while they're constantly playing Tetris on their phone. C'mon Rob, be more professional than that.
I want Jokic and the Nuggets to pull off a Dirk Mavericks and at least win the West.
KD the junkie for stacked teams 😂
