![[FULL] Kyrie Irving on leaving the Cavs, LeBron James and the Boston Celtics | First Take](/img/n.gif)
I'd def attend a "How to miss work and get paid" class taught by Kyrie 😂
Sign me up
John wall the pioneer too😂
Bro…you don’t know me…but I can teach that class too!!!….paid family care, short term disability…I got you bro…LMAOOOO
Will kyrie even show up to teach his class though
Future New York Times best seller 😂
Bro I screamed when SAS said "Kyrie is a professional at getting time off and can teach a class on it"🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
That shyt was corny. Stephen a got Kyrie dik in his mouth
@@JoemammyyyHe just mad because he can’t get a day off.
@@ifyoudontworkyoudonteat7644 I don’t think he want one. Bro loves to work at every opportunity
No that was a great line fr 😂😂
I stopped being a kyrie fan after he showed me he doesn’t care about his fans
Dude only talked for 1 minute on the topic and then went on a Kyrie rant😭
The clown is an east target.
Man can’t wait to bash kyrie
i mean what’s the issue
Mhm proving Jay’s point
But he’s not holding LD to that same standard…
I miss the ASG being the East vs the West
the west was winning easily for years so they had to
Who literally cares
There’s always that one person
The players didn’t gaf then and they still don’t gaf now
Listen, if we look hard enough, we will find people who are missing the times when we were rubbing grass to light fire.
"It's never too early to quit on your team"
-KD and Kyrie
Just KD
@@4ktkaram395 kyrie was a sideshow for them and he never cared about their business.
It’s never too early to wake and hate huh
@@4ktkaram395 Kyrie quit on THREE TEAMS now, same as KD. Recruit he didn't even quit on the Warriors at all.
@@clustajr 😹😹😹
KD and Kyrie said this so comfortably, they must’ve really Enjoyed LOCKING up Their Brooklyn Franchise Doors while Throwing away the KEY!!🤣🤣🤣
left them in 4th in the east
Stephen A says some dumb stuff sometimes but he is right about all attention not being good attention.
No such thing as bad publicity. Stephen A knows that firsthand with all the dumb stuff he says
@@tjleaf3510 bad publicity definitely exists. Kyrie being attached to Antisemitism is in no way good publicity
@@BoskoShabazz kyrie still getting max Money & is a All star starter, y’all think it’s hurting him lol
@@Fibanacci9it hurt the league tho, which is his employers
@@Fibanacci9 But can't get a max contract longer than a year so far.
Bruh Nick Claxson & numerous teammates can literally call kyrie a Mentor & leader and y’all will believe these two bedroom reporters over them lol Sheep bro
Thank u
Kyrie carrying ESPN
Lmao
Too much spotlight on Kai
facts
Stephen a smith never miss an opportunity to bash kyrie.
He himself stated issues with Kyrie were "Personal". None of us should expect Stephen A. to speak highly of Kyrie at all. His hatred of Kyrie has exceeded his hatred of losing his own mother
Stephen a is right tho
Smith is right
Kyrie has Ben worthless sense asking for a trade away from Cleveland 🤷♂️😂😂😂 he l show up every now and then .... then pull some bs right after that that’s kyrie in a nutshell I love the dude talent must see tv but all that other diva sh**** idc for !!! Look at the so called goat lebron he Beyoncé'
@@gonchanliwether he’s right or not, it’s a little bit weird the hard on he has for Kyrie every time his name is brought up, you would think that Kyrie did something to Stephen A. personally, it’s strange
Not gonna lie, this season's trade madness WAS THE BEST...EVER!!
Nah
Nope
Kyrie requested a trade due to not meeting a negotiation with the Nets. Then KD requested a trade due to a lack of a costar and TERRIBLE upper management. But each day the media claimed it was all "Drama". Now Nick Fierdell has joined the Suns organization to repeat the process. SMH!
Negative
Don't think so
Everybody want to be traded when things don’t go their way 😂😂😂
But Brooklyn wasn't in a bad way. Kyrie bailed because of the front office. KD could've stayed if phoenix didn't want to trade with them.
@@ChikisaMal28 they just started building a culture for real this season went on a winning streak as a nets fan I didn’t expect to see a trade coming being they were winning and playing well at that time 10 games above .500 number 3 in the East it was a blind side move no doubt
@@richardmatthews2807 they did but when KD got hurt it went down in flames
GS? No. But let’s not act like KD didn’t insert himself into another excellent situation THAT HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ESTABLISHING. The guy is simply a bandwagon man. That’s just who he is.
Uuuhhh....yeah...it's a business!
Boy they talk about Bron, Kd, Kyrie everyday
Yet, you keep watching.
I wish they talk about my pacers more.
Sas need to get off Kyrie and kd nuts 😂😂😂
They always in the press sooop
The trade deadline was so entertaining lol! I aint complaining abt it hahaha
Facts
Disagree
I don't watch trade deadlines for entertainment. I watch basketball. Those trades won't necessarily make great basketball.
Its hard to take someone like Stephen A serious when he openly admitted to having a personal vendetta against Kyrie.
Why? You act like players don't hold vendettas against the talking heads.
@@bobhanson1037the players have a reason . Why does a journalist have personal vendetta against a player. Why does skip bayless b on bron dik? Why Stephen a got Kyrie in his mouth
@@cv1368 completely agree
Why is this idiot SAS still talking about Kyrie. He admitted having a personal vendetta against Kyrie crying over Kyrie money. Kyrie smash his girl.
Nah. I don’t agree. Players want to get paid, talk sht, at times underperform, and then be accountable to anyone.
Kyrie Irving is still living Rent free SAS.... Ben Simmons is the time off King.
Rent free 😂
Kawhi is
Windhorst made great points when they were talking about the dunk contest … these trade requests do a lot for these individual players, but not the league. Say what you will management and all that, but Brooklyn is a NY market that went from a contender to a middle of the pack squad … KD/KAI are in great situations now and they have the right to do that, but it only benefits them, not the league
Nothing's good for the league. It's either good for the owners or the top players. There are a select few players where these things benefit them (like 10% of them) and the rest of the players are at the mercy of the owners. Look at Patrick Beverley or Mikal Bridges as opposed to Kyrie and KD.
@@smoothsavage2870 bad to include mikal bridges who wouldn’t trade him for KD although the suns didn’t want to but that was the only way the deal would’ve got done but Pat bev oh that’s spot on lol
@@richardmatthews2807 Mikal found out he was traded on social media from a team that he had loyalty to. I wouldn't say that benefit him at all. He understood why, but that doesn't change the fact that he was traded without his knowledge and had no time to prepare for it.
And the SAS Kyrie Hate Tour rolls on. 😂
KD thinks tweets = people watching games???It does not
But tweets equal engagement in NBA topics. Engagement is so important in a business
@Kay G engagement is important, and that's cool. it's not paying the bills when talking about Sports specifically
They definitely do 😂😂
Lmao we need that one on one confrontation of Kyrie vs Stephen A 😂😂
Stephen A is always ready for the kyrie topics lol
Wakes up looking for that smoke😭
You can tell SA was raised by women.
NBA analysts especially on ESPN just pick and choose what to talk about not the actual issues on the court. Players getting techs for speaking to their teammates, referees are so bad they are affecting the outcomes and no one talks about it unless a certain player and team throw a tantrum. Small market teams are gathering picks that they can't eventually keep because the luxury tax will hit them so they eventually have to ship off their future stars to a team he doesn't want and when that player requests a trade Adam Silver and his analysts get mad.
The referees are beyond awful. Some of the calls they make (or don't make) are straight up corrupted.
KD and Kyrie said the same thing and you chose to attack 1 of them
SAS scared of Durant's mom 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Funny thing is Stephen A. wanted Max traded from FirstTake for the same thing.. “making a good business decision”
how is this related? did max request a trade?
Max' contract with FirstTake was up and Stephen A just didn't want Max back. Not sure that is a good example, young man.
I miss the old days were players would finish out their contracts and then become free agents. Instead we are watching players request trades when things get tough or when things don’t get their way.
business. they don't owe teams.teams make business decisions too
And it's not like the Nets were still bad. They were on a hot streak (before the KD injury). When healthy, they were a threat. Celtics and Bucks had slightly better odds than them, but the Nets were still in it... and they both opted out.
It’s the era of instant gratification. All of us are affected by it
What old days? People been demanding trades for years even Kareem demanded a trade
@@rconway1641 Kareem demanded a trade in the 80s come on 😂 I’m talking about the days before the super team era was created in 2010 all the way up to this day.
Stephen A we get it bro you hate Kyrie. Your coming off as jealous and extremely cruel. You said his family came to you respectfully and asked you to lay off Kyrie and you told the world you would. That was short lived because you went right back into bashing him. Kwame brown should’ve taught you that this kinda slander is awful for someone’s mental health, their earning potential, and essentially the black community as a whole to see us beating up on our own people. I’m gonna say this directly to Stephen A Smith and all the media outlets that’s trying there hardest to bury Kyrie Irving career. THERE IS NOTHING YALL CAN DO OR SAY TO EVER STOP US FROM LOVING KYRIE IRVING!!!! That man influenced an entire generation with his hard work and dedication to the game but more than that he’s the most real & authentic person the league have seen since Allen Iverson. Do better and stop tap dancing for the folks 💯
Kyrie talks like he’s offended 24/7😂
That boy Stephan painting a story ain’t he lol
how
@@princecheck11 he don’t like kyrie it’s personal. It wants the whole world to know and agree with him 🤣
@@kingmarcusrich Noo thats just wat u think , you act like just bc someone criticize someone else that mean they dislike the person, he just dislike kyrie actions
@@princecheck11 he said it out his mouth it’s personal. But aye free country think what u want.
Facts. If it’s a nationally televised game they gotta play
SAS was right on point with his last statement about players negotiating there next contract when they just got paid that's crazy!
These players learned, its all about BUSINESS! Not licking bosses ba--s, like SAS does at every opportunity.
@@indigenouswarrior_1878 not understanding what your saying. I understand it's a business but I missed your point
Great trades guys.
Bad trades honor your contract
Stephen A. Smith have publicly said that he has a personal agenda against Kyrie so his take on him is bs, and SAS won't attack KD because of the backlash he'll receive from KD's mom
He is scared of KD and SAS doesn't want to lose the source in the KD camp like he did with LeBron in the 2010s
They never shy away from a slight challenge
SAS is always on his knees for KD. KD also left why didn’t he stay?
SAS is still salty with Kyrie and KD. He loves to bash on Kyrie and KD but especially Kyrie and it’s nauseating at this point! Hey Steven A. it didn’t work out in Brooklyn and quit letting Brooklyn’s owner and GM off the hook! They lost 3 franchise players in 18 months they’re incompetent ‼️
Man they just want any reason to talk about Kyrie 😂
Thank you Brian for answering the question
Imagine being a nets fan in the last three weeks, you went from guaranteed playoff contention too now basically tanking. I’d be furious.
He knew not to have Jay on
As long as owners and GMs can trade players it’s not going anywhere.
This is the hottest take of the year for Stephen A. Smith! Props to him for telling the audience what the real deal is on this subject.
Kawhi is still worse miss more games in the regular season since he joined to clippers on load management 😂😂
Exactly
Kyrie literally destroyed the nets and said management didn’t like him sigh 😂
I mean they didn't. The owner wanted him to complete some mess before he could play. Also, his garbage stipulations in contract talks is why Kyrie left. Learn to own a team and you can keep superstars.
Joe Tsai destroyed the Nets with his slave mentality
@@rjwill1992 THANK YOU! Casey Douglas needs to "sigh" on that.
No way people are actually on Kyrie’s side🤦♂️ He single handedly ruined the most talented big 3 of all time and always finds a way to not play. I agree that they were doing too much with the anti semantic situation but you can’t blame them for having a grudge against Kyrie
@@rjwill1992 he caused that on his self bro. I’m a reasonable and fair human being he’s been unreliable in a variety of different ways. A person who has already invested heavily into and hasn’t seen much it’s hard to actually want to give a player the contract he wants and you have no confidence he’ll ever be productive for you. If you were working at your job and you weren’t performing you would be laid off fam.this is real life. You saying he isn’t the problem is why he believes he isn’t the problem lol
Kyrie carrying espn on his back right now 🤦🏿♂️😂
Love SAS, but when it comes to Kyrie his points are weird to me. Why is he questioning Kyrie’s leadership by bringing up contracts from other players who haven’t even been to the finals?
They missed the worst part of that kyrie interview were he said he did his job with the nets. The worst part is he said he was selfless to his teammates
When did Kyrie do his job?
He left them I'm 4th place
They mentioned that
That's another video. Search it
He turned this to a Kyrie hate segment like always the people who hate Kyrie deep down wish they could be like Kyrie it’s that simple you hate what you can’t be I love Kai fr he always him no matter all the negativity energy thrown at him …….
Bro no 🧢 Kyrie is the most depressing millionaire, I would rather be myself with less money & drama then to walk a day in his emotions.
@@goated3285most depressing 😂 Niggas there rapper out here faking it to make it and you calling kyrie life depressing terrible choice of word my dude
Lol it’s funny the media never questions kd’s leadership
The media is retired players who don't want to lose their connections with the top stars in order to remain relevant
Nothing to question
It's funny how you're still living in your mom's basement in sweats and spending all day commenting on espn videos
@@DXAdamJensen you weird for thinking you know where he live
Never had one so nothing to say
Steven A. was on POINT with everything he said in this segment!! Sheesh!!!! 💯💯
that's a bar at 7:55
Not surprise to see SAS turn this “are trade requests bad for the nba” to a Kyrie Rant
Stephen A hates kyrie …he off topic and all in his emotions…he’s on the outside looking in because the players love kyrie in the locker room they the ones that really know what’s going on
James harden loves him so much right
Lmaoooo ask Harden how he feels
Yes Harden loves him why u think he said watt he said when he responded to them getting traded…
Perfect take
@@richardmatthews2807 harden never once said he felt a certain way about Kyrie. You assume his statements were about Kyrie cause the media is good at brainwashing dumb people like you into thinking everything is about Kyrie
SAS BLACKED OUT 😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭
KD said fuk being stuck with Ben by myself, Ky left I’m up 😂
And they didnt have to trade him.
Yet, they penalize kyrie wanting to go to LA
Kyrie fans - “ kyire is perfect, let that man live, stop hating “😂😂😂
SAS stop it we all know you hate Kyrie and you look so stupid keep taking about Kyrie you mad because you not the man he is you not you own man stop it SAS you say it on tv you got a thank with Kyrie
😂😂😂
💀
Personally I think 4th place in the east without KD is a good job 😂
They were under .500 after kd left.
Kd carried them to a 2nd seed lmao he was doing everything for them
@@Hi-rp9jq They didn’t go on the 18-2 run until kyrie came back from suspension what you mean, KD was shitten on his teammates befor that to
@@Fibanacci9 if you took it in that way be my guess. But the nets had a couple win streaks before kyrie came back
@@ChikisaMal28 nah they were 5-3 in the 8 games kyrie was out, they were 21-3 with kyrie when he came back including 12 game win streak. Why you think kyrie a All Star Starter?
Its not bad for them but for the team owners its not they are pissed, like what barkley said in the upcoming CBA negotiations with the owners it will be topic of discussion along with load management
I hate that players and team front offices don’t take the feelings of the fans into consideration the conversation is always about the bottom line and how much views on certain nights but never about the quality of the product on the actual court
Kyrie did do a great job THIS season. Left them in 4th place while KD was injured. That is good. Context matters SAS
He won 4 of 16 without KD 😂

Great take by Stephen A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great takes by both windhorst and stephen a. The league has sent a message to the fans that regular season doesnt matter anymore. Contracts are so big and there is so much guaranteed money that players don't have to show the level of commitment they used to. And the quality of the product suffers
Lmao horrible take because it’s personal no objectivity at all
Bro this was so funny 😂
Stephen A doesn't shy away and tells it like it is. Admire and agree with most of his comments.
How many reasons he missed games? he literally just missed the 7 games due to personal reasons. The other reason was a hypocritical mandate placed and COVID and a dumb suspension. 😂😂
You clearly didn’t follow the nets

@@irregular6593 Nothing dude just a hater and was brainwashed by media purposely talking bad everyday! they prey on feeble minds like @Colin Edelman
@@irregular6593 stop the revisionist history. bro literally has a TREND of no shows. the bday party and capitol riots? he tried to stop the bubble too. everything is everyones fault except kyrie right bozo?
I think we r missing 1 important thing all 3 stars left r we gonna sit here and blame just the players or we gonna actually give any blame to the front offfice and how they handled the players they had. Kyrie also signed a 1 year extension because he was taking responsiblity of what happen hoping to sign for a max extension he was playing his best basketball ever and showed up (Steven A) yet they were only gonna pay him if he won a championship meaning they didnt want him there thats y he left. It really also had nothing to do with money it was really about him being in bkn. They didnt even offer a full max they were gonna pay ben simmons over him thats crazy. I do think the media influences the buisness decisions of the nets. Think about it not paying kyrie signing a injured player for a player who can score 20 / 10 and play ben hasnt played a season with the sixers he playing like a garbage with the nets. The media hates the nets and praying for their downfall and the owner and sean marks r falling for their agenda🤦♂.
Kyrie attitude mimics AI’s comment on “practice what we talking about practice here?!” with the regular season, and adding more lmao.
All star game was mid. Idk why i always expect guys to play D when they never do.
When Kyrie said he did his job he meant not going 0-11 with KD out.. he did his job lol 27 5 and 5
He makes it personal
I wonder how to owners will respond. All it takes is a quarter of the owners to be ultra hardline and we could look at an extended lock out.
On God If I ever see SAS gone snuff him on the strength of Kyrie! I cant stand haters! He said all that just to get to the Kyrie bashing! If you admitted you actually have personal issues i dont want to hear nothing you have to say you been hating for 2 yrs! he was right about the vaccine and they really hate him for it!
Bro everybod got vaccinated except him,,, Kyrie was paid for millions of dollars. He should have atleast showed up. Missing almost 50% of his games in his 4 years in brooklyn, Bro thats crazy. what's crazier is that he was fully paid.
@@saitamasensei2927 Thats not what the NY Supreme court been saying Last few months! this why he media keep tryna bash him because they called him a idiot for a whole season and he was right about the Vax! I guess you didnt know alll the workers that were unconstitutionally fired from work all got they jobs back plus back pay in NY! Do yall actually take the time to do research instead of just saying anything! Kyrie wasnt fully paid they took half his salary and he got fined multiple games! so now I have to ask why do you dislike Kyrie for you to be here lying blatantly! HE DONT EVEN KNOW YOU EXIST!🤣
@@saitamasensei2927 Everybody Huh? With your lying a$$
@@saitamasensei2927 did you figure out you were spreading false info yet
Kd and kyrie left the nets in a great position. If the nets didn’t literally emasculate kyrie maybe they will still be in Brooklyn.
I agree.
Bruh no matter how big a star you are, the way he spread anti semitic info and didn’t get the vaccine was not only embarassing it was shameful. Kyrie wasn’t even that good on the nets he barely played for them and left when he started losing too many in a row. KD left bc kyrie left. If Lebron did any of this and left the lakers when they were losing they’d be crucified. Kyrie ruins every team he’s on and KD shops around for rings.
@@Christine-ne4yf the kyrie fanboys wont admit this tho.
@@Christine-ne4yf kyrie shouldn’t have been at fault for not taking the vaccine that was stupid. Second the “anti semiotic” situation was the nets and nba clearly attacking kyrie. They made him take all of these precautions and literally emasculating him but all the owner of the suns (that was literally SA’n people) had to do was give a bs apologize and had to sell the team only after the nba got some blowback from the sponsors. Kyrie has definitely did some stuff that people may not agree with but don’t act like the nets wasn’t wrong.
@@walk_er shouldn't have been at fault yet it still was his decision and he was the only one on the team who declined. You can talk about heart and team all you want but check his actions and they don't match his words. How many NBA players missed games because they decided to attend a birthday party instead? Or how many missed games after Jan 6th capitol attacks? For the anti Semitic film, I don't know how you defend that one or blame the Nets here. They literally have protesters outside the building but they were just supposed to ignore it and let him return to work? Did you notice how they gave him time to respond and didn't suspend him until he held an all-time terrible press conference? The ADL literally returned his donation afterwards as his responses were so terrible. Ky's mad that he doesn't have a max contract extension but who turned it down before last season started? Remember how KD signed his max contract and the Nets had offers out to both Harden and Ky who choose not to sign? And it's nothing new. Ky has been a poor teammate every step of his career. Remember when he said he had so much to learn from Lebron yet two weeks later demanded the Cavs trade him or else he'll have in season knee surgery? Or when he promised the Celtics crowd at midcourt how they'd be together forever and then he ditched them the very next off season? So I'm not sure how you're placing the blame on the Nets. Seems like the biggest mistake they made was giving Kyrie everything he wanted before this year.
Thank you Stephen A. for saying what you said.
It’s entertaining for sure but it’s like what’s the point in signing long term contracts?? I really don’t understand how players request trades 1 year into signing their new contracts
I feel like somebody paying him to try to influence Kyrie contract negotiations
It's definitely personal with Stephen A. and Kyrie
1000%
Love windy on first take
Kyrie injury’s too ? Or did we forget that! Also do we not mention the organizations side of things and their bad handling of kyrie ?
They'll never bring that up
Thank you, sick of this he just took time off. And they hide the front office bs that they do.
He never gonna let go that Kyrie is in control of his own life smh
can kyrie be in control of another ring? yall reward scrubs too much
L take
He mad cause it wasn’t watt Stephen A wanted to hear🤣🤣🤣
SAS with the facts.
SAS is and incredible lap dog for the establishment.
KD made the point a couple of years ago about the focus of basketball needs to be on the court but he was told by media members like SAS that the attention buzz that the media creates is what’s more important and creates revenue. Now he threw it back in there face with his answers during AS break. They wanted it like this and it’s definitely corny but blame the machine. Basketball purists like KD been talking about the analysis need to be more basketball focus on the court.
Good point.
Not trade requests the media strictly said players joining forces to win is good attention but to quit and want out isn’t good for business
KD supposed to a leader not a social media cheerleader.
@@versewonderstrikes5353 and u supposed to be at work trying to take over but u here instead 😂
Notice this clown Stephen doesn't bring Jay Will anymore when discussing Kyrie. He doesn't want his rants ( caused by deep hate for the man) to be interpreted by objectivity. If you do the math, Kyrie missed 90% of his games due to injury. Stephen A clearly has a personal beef with the guy and looks very silly.
brooklyn didnt win for many reasons but nets was on like a 15 game win streak all the way up to number 2 in the east ..... them boyz is ballers ....it jus reached a point the employer dont like the employee or vise versa an everybody go dey seperate ways
SAS wish he could do a trade request so he can finally get a day off from work.
Stephen A already admitted that it's personal with Kyrie so I don't ever expect him to be objective when talking about Kyrie.
So what's the point of signing contracts?
This is why the NFL will always be a better product on the field than the star driven leagues with the NBA etc
NFL play is about 6 seconds long.. then u wait 40 seconds for another 6 seconds worth of "game"... so much better🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Kyrie rents space in SAS's brain. I admire Kyrie that he never responds to SAS. Someone please explain how the media does not understand that " every knock is a boost." SAS has made Kyrie the most popular and polarizing professional athlete in America.
That's the point sadly lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He actually made a good point-if you don’t get along with your employer then leave your job and find another that’s actually the most valid point of all….. SAS left one job for another didn’t he
Attention is different than ratings and money
Great point by Stephen A
It’s personal with Stephani a and kyrie espn needs to stop asking Stephani about kyrie obviously he can’t be honest …big up king kyrie 🤞🏿
Kyrie made the right choice 💯
which time? When he said he has so much to learn from Lebron and two weeks later was threatening in season knee surgery if the Cavs didn't trade him? When he came out to center court and asked the Celtics fans if they'll take him and then ditched them at the end of the season? When he was actively trying to sabotage the NBA bubble during covid? When he decided he'd rather attend a birthday party over a team game? When he convinced Harden that he wasn't trust worthy and that Harden should force his own trade request because the Nets were going nowhere? When he said the Nets don't need a coach?
Why do we ok owners trading a player whenever and for whatever reason yet the players are wrong for doing the same.
SAS needs “THE DROP SQUAD!!”
Imagine if KD never left OKC and never made another finals with Russell. Everyone would be saying he's wasting his potential on a franchise that doesn't care about him like they are with Dame. When is the media going to trash these franchises for being horrible at developing talent, supporting their star players, or even just drafting decent talent.
That OKC team was WAY better than Golden state. They were up 3-1 for a reason. KD CHOKED! I’m a KD super Stan but that’s the truth, even I agreed that he shouldn’t have went to GS, he could’ve went to the clippers, spurs or heat. There was no reason to choose golden state. As the number one Russ hater, Russ didn’t choke and always played well vs golden state.
Media is a how they market the product there is alot of collusion to keep anything that would hurt fan attendance and rating at bay! Whole league is corrupt from the top down players just defend themselves! thats just HUMAN Nature!
@@colinedelman6392 Bro, Russ choked hella hard. KD choked game 6 sure but that was it. Russ averaged 4-5 turnovers a game and couldn't guard curry or Klay to save his life. KD choosing to go to GS was all because of how they play basketball. It was a style he liked more than any other. Clippers were never going anywhere and were on the verge of their break-up anyway. The spurs and Heat both play a style of basketball that KD doesn't gritty, defensive basketball that focuses more on a style that would have asked him to change his game. Also no, that OKC team was not better than GSW. That GSW team won 73 games that season for a reason dork.
When ESPN wants to trash athletes they let's Stephen A Snake 🐍 dog his own people always
