Clippers: Harden, The Beard, Honeybun, Fat Suit Enjoyer, Strip Club Philanthropist, The System (of playoff failures), etc…
Hilarious that he called himself the system. Yeah like 5 years ago
Lmfaoo bro cooked the shit outta Harden like that Mavs announcer 😂😂🤣💀
James is also contributing to their losses
Strip Club Philanthropist is wild 😂😂
The Problem
As a Wolves fan, the fact that we have to nitpick when it comes to what we’re doing wrong makes it feel like I’m in some sort of fairytale
Yeah, I'm gonna lie, I thought u guys were gonna do really good last year, but I didn't expect much for this year. Boy was I fucking wrong 😂
I think Josh Giddey got bigger problems now 😂
As a Lakers fan, it’s gotta be the ability to get defensive rebounds. It seems like every game we lose in the second chance pts category. With AD you didn’t really expect that to happen, but I think getting Vando back will help out with that a lot.
Reaves has been inconsistent but has showed flashes. he’s not the main problem
Vando has a lot of value for the squad
The success of the Lakers lies in AD’s game
@@bigbangbasketballthis is for Laker fans.. we know AD isn’t the problem… only “Lebron fans” disguised as Laker fans say that
As a jazz fan, our problem is definitely our guard play. And that’s been a lot better since keyonte is starting now, and Kessler has been out since then which explains how bad the +/- is
JC is also starting to heat up again too
@@hansonlangi4347if he stays hot through new years we gotta trade him, though the city/ownership love him
the defense will always be crap no matter what though. i think this year is like the aftershock tank year. They were preeety bad after giving Conley away......people blamed it on "sitting guys".....eh no its cause all the other guards are/were tank commanders in waiting.....now we get a whole year of it and its gonna suuuuuck. Cause aint no one gon😢na give you a better, more polished ghard for two flawed ones. Package THT and Sexton together, 29 Million Bucks, throw ina 1st for a sweetener and.....what would that get you?
Portland doesnt need more guards for Brogdon. Jalen Brunson aont going anywhere. Neither is Ja. Lavine doesnt fit hes not a point guard. No one who has a half decent point guard is interested in trading them.....I dunno hit up the Knicks for Immanuel Quickley? Norman Powell is a shooting guard that doesnt work........Ugh Markelle Fulz? Like where is the help coming from? Dejounte Murray off the Hawks even though he kinda sucks?........*sigh* gonna be a tough year. Who is even available? Someone off the Nets maybe? ugh
Trade sexton
Keyonte is so good, my favorite player in the draft
As a Bucks fan i knew our defense was gonna suck but not be as bad as it has been so far hopefully it improves. The thing i am more surprised about is not seeing more pick and rolls between Giannis and Dame.
These past two games they’ve looked a lot better so I hope this is a good sign. Ajax has helped a ton with the activity and energy so I hope he keeps getting 10+ minutes a game.
indeed things will continually get better
@@jacobbrockwell
Brook in drop coverage has helped a ton
dame also has had slow starts to his last couple seasons then ending them on a heater and now that he can see the fact that he has a legitimate chance to win a ring he’s gonna be locking in for the post season like never before
If you read that part of the article too, it actually says the defensive rating is better with Dame on the floor. I know the defense will probably around league average after some time. New star player, as well as a whole new coaching staff. A lot of new stuff to learn.
For Lakers, it's definitely the impact of Vanderbilt's absence. I been saying since the Westbrook trade that he's the most influential piece for getting wins vs not, especially because he brings energy right out the gate. So far, Lakers have only gone into halftime up ONCE this season.
You can’t blame the lakers lazy tendencies on on player being out the effort of the team is just so bad most game
@@CashmoneezI mean he’s their second best defender and their main perimeter defense option, part of it is what you said but a huge part of it is him
At the end of last season, they weren’t even playing him
When you're team alpha is lazy on defense your whole teams gonna slack on defense. Lebron doesn't fight through screens close out hard and run back on fast breaks unless he thinks he might get a highlight chasedown block. Why would any other laker hustle when their leader doesnt?
@@Ericrawnsleysince when has Lebron been a leader?
Kenny acting like "shoddy" & "inexplicably" are some posh ass words got me dying lmaooo. You in the media now broski, SAS & the rest of the media be using those words like it's nothing 😭😭
Think he just misread shoddy, he said shobby twice when reading it.
But yeah being surprised by inexplicably is funny
Yeah man needs to up his vocab.
he's dyslexic
I dont understand how it isnt defense for the Pacers as a Pacers fan. Our offense in the half court or transition is top notch. Its the defense being ranked 28th that needs work. It doesnt need to be top 10 scoring all them points but it needs to be respectable
Yo, I can’t wait for December 16 as a wolves fan. That game is gonna be insane. 💯🫡 🤝
Yeah I would have to agree. Great rim protection with Turner, great perimeter defense with Bruce Brown, and great length with Hali. Seems like a recipe for success on the defensive end.
@@HamburgerdadHali is not a good defender though lol. Not yet
@@Weather_Nerdhe is. He just doesn’t try as much since he carries the offensive load. When he was in SAC, he was very promising as a defender. Not 1v1 (he’s too skinny) but as a help defender.
Yeah really weird to nitpick and highlight a pretty inconsequential issue when the defense has quite clearly been bad
knicks fan here, brunson's lack of efficiency at the rim has definitely been surprise, calling out his floater specifically was weird but dude has been killing it from 3 on a bunch more attempts then last year so it has all kinda balanced out
Kenny trying to avoid that line of sunlight is a hilarious watch if you ask me.
the Celtics only problem is health
And depth
Still beat the 76ers without JB and KP though, going 6-deep into their bench
I mean depth doesn't fully matter when you're top 6 is absolutely amazing, but it truly does fall of a cliff after those 6 or so. After Horford, you're relying on guys like Hauser, Pritchard, and Kornet even
@@aidenbeers2273 nah, Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard go ballistic with Horford. Also Banton and Svi played awesome yesterday
I’d say coaching also. Mazzulla can get outcoached by Spo and Nurse in playoffs.
As a Suns fan, our defense has surprised me. I think our lack of wing depth, chemistry, and injuries are our biggest issues. Looking forward to the debut of our big three
What they still havnt played together yet
I'm a raptors fan. Was talking about this to my buddy. The Raptors can have a chance to win any game regardless of opponent but equally can lose any game they play no matter the opponent. Keeps the games interesting lol
One thing I’ll note about the Pacers transition stuff is that they are rarely scoring directly off transition (relative to expectations) but they push the pace so much that they are creating tons of mismatch which does contribute to the half-court statistical success. Needs to be a statistical category for the period between transition and half court offense lol
We just need someone to step up as our #2 I think that would help teams that can lock down hali don't really have much to worry about
Whoever wrote this article completely missed on the OKC one. Sure Giddey has had a slow start but the rebounding has been abysmal and will be the downfall if they don't figure it out. Guys like Val, Capela, etc are eating it up on the glass vs us and the wings that crash the boards get an offensive rebound more often than not. Thankfully they are shooting really well from the field so defensive rebounding hasn't been that much of a factor but when the shots stop falling, rebounding will need to be addressed.
Was going to comment exactly this. Our rebounding has been woeful.
Yeah Giddey has been doing better. Our rebounding is still our main problem.
@@carson5090 Giddey is barely 21, progress isn’t linear and I think our fanbase likes to jump on one player year after year to go after. He will be fine.
We need a back up big doesn’t have to b a young or high potential guy just this years Mike/ Dario. Call up Aron baynes for the playoffs 😂🤣
Or one of the jazz bigs could be moving soon 🤷🏾♂️
Harrison is taking a step back, but this could also be from just the start of the season as it seems many players are in a slump of sorts. Also i think it has alot to do with the fact harrison barnes is more like the 5th option instead of the 3rd or 4th. Keegan Murray is expected to do a lot more offensively and especially defensively. Kevin Huerter is debatable but with what I've watched it seems he's getting the ball more than Barnes.
Yeah I noticed he doesn’t really need to score anymore, as long as he plays good defense we’re fine
Knicks problem is that theyre 1-3 without RJ. They need him
Just seen he's shooting 50% from 3 so far 👀
Yet another dude that comes back from Olympics or World Cup and keeps balling out. Haliburton on that international carryover rn too
Apparently they didn’t need him lol, this didn’t age well.
as a twolves fan, cannot be happier even after a loss. 3 games in 4 days is rough and to go 2/3 for the timberwolves is CRAZY. im used to 1/3 or goode eggs. this team starting out hot has bout them runway for whatever usual slumps they have.
As Bucks fan, their biggest issue is the newness of everything. I expect them to look a lot better once things begin to gel. They're already showing improvements on the defensive end.
Each of like the last 5 games has looked better than the last on both ends
I feel like the reason the defense rating dropped with the bucks is with the dame and drue holiday trade, jrue holiday is known for solid defense and they traded him for dame and malik Beasley 2 offensive pieces
The Raptors are in the exact same situation we were in last year, we have a legit playoff calibar starting lineup, Scottie looks incredible, Pascal is starting to improve his scoring, and the rest of our starting lineup has been great, but we have zero depth, like it’s actually terrible how bad our bench is, like seriously other then Precious Achiuwa we have nobody coming off the bench making an impact
Mavs is just the lack of rim protection and wing defence. It was always going to be a problem. Also of course Josh Green playing badly is not helping, especially when he's a wind defender.
Kenny reading is one of my favorite things. He’s doing his best and I’m here for it.
Orlando has gotta figure out some better rotations in the second half...to have a lead like they did last night against a team like Chicago on an off night like they had without DeMar and lavine having that slow of a night there's no reason it should've been down to the wire....even without fultz and Wendell that second half is all on the coaching staff
As a Rockets fan I am loving life, I was not expecting this start to the season😂
For the Hear right now, things look great and getting better. But definitely would be nice to flip Lowry for an upgrade.
Pels one is a very early stretch imo. Key players out, neither Zion or BI has gotten off to a really good start, they’ll heat up like they normally do
Wiggins really went from being an elite defender and guy that will give you 20 points on a nightly basis in the playoffs to a decent player only getting 26 mins per game. Idk whats happening wit him.
He’s not been decent he’s been trash
his problem is that he sucks
@@jakemcculloch6450 for real been trash. It’s not like he’s even close to getting near 20 points. He got 9 and 6 points back to back vs the Wolves. It’s been BAD. He had 4 points against the Pistons last week! I’m pulling for him though.
He reverted to who we all thought he was.
As a pels fan, my main problem is coaching(even though I Liked James Borrego’s offense in the absent of Willie Green), Our defense is getting a bit better with herb and naji marshall back and they need to limit turnovers a lot.
The Thunder's problem has more so been rebounding as opposed to Giddey's slow start. As you said, Giddey has been inconsistent, which means he's still had some great games, but a significant problem which has consistently been really bad. So far they rank 29th in rebounds per game, and it's been very limiting on both sides so far.
I think they got bigger problems now
Seeing this comment a week later is quite unfortunate
I am surprised the Pacers weren't criticized for their lack of defensive consistency, especially on the perimeter. The defense from the bigs looks good (most of the time) but there's times it looks like nobody even knows their assignment.
I slightly agree with the blazers take. I mean Injures to their 3 guards in the first two weeks is crazy. We have a guy that was on a two way, starting at PG. Sharpe is also dealing with a right-hand thumb injury. They are still playing decent, but early injures have hurt. (I didn't mention R-Will because he is MR. Glass)
What do you think of Camara? I also enjoy seeing late draft picks get a lot of run as rookies, from the few games I’ve seen he looks good defensively and plays with a lot of hustle, just no offensive game rn
Grizzlies fan here we down bad and everyone for some reason is calling for Taylor Jenkins head for no reason
his defensive is scheme is suspect lol. Explain why we keep overhelping in the paint when we have a DPOY and just leave the 3 ball open
As a rockets fan going into the season and especially after summer league I expected a big jump from Jabari smith jr he’s been very mediocre to start to season but thankfully we had that alpy jump 🙏🏽
As a grizzlies fan it’s definitely been rough…
8:55 shobby defense
Common thing to do when you have dyslexia...I can't hold him😅
As a Bucks fan, honestly i hope the smoke keeps coming. Every single game the team looks better on both ends. Especially the last 2 games
Looking forward to Dallas tonight and Boston coming up cuz idk how much the Philly, NY, and Miami games are worth for gauging em even though they were all wins
Knicks fan here, our real problem is finding consistent offense outside of Brunson and IQ. PS: i’d gladly trade out JB’s floater if he shoots 46% from 3 on 6 attempts LOL
Just switched from KOT4Q to Kenny fr
I think we need to make a move for buddy hield we need floor spacing around paolo and franz
knicks didn’t even mention julius randle??😂
Look at Kenny man so inspirational
As a Nuggets fan. I love Christian and he truly got so many intangibles. He offer so much on defense,hustle,energy and rebounding, but i'm disappointed with his 2nd year. I was expecting him to rise up and move forward with his game.
I was expecting so much more from his offensive game. I was expecting his shooting to be much better at least hitting 34% from 3pt. I was expecting him to get better at creating for himself and usage of picks. I'm in love with his defensive game and everything else, but i was expecting him to do a jump and get his shooting right. 45% is fine, but 22% from 3pt and 68% isn't good specially since he was a 38% and 75% at college.
Coach Grif is my biggest gripe about it’s the bucks this season, I hate his defensive system. Maybe to harsh to early but I miss Bud man😅
I think this was the fastest bulls segment ever in the history of your videos lol
As a Piston fan. The biggest problem I believe we have with our team is that our roster is too injury prone. If we can't take care of our players health, injuries will hold us back from long-term success.
You believe all the injuries are real?
@@ImadogGarcia Maybe not all. The Ivey illness situation was a bit fishy. However, Monte and Bojan started the season injured. Cade dealt with injuries that kept him out for expended periods his first two seasons. MBIII has a long injury history. And aside from that, last season and even now, our roster is plagued with several injuries of core players at the same time.
Indy's biggest flaw is the defense, because that's nowhere near the okay that transition offense is getting as grade.
Nets fan here: our defense isnt doing too well due to the previous absences of nic claxton. We are mainly worried as to when cam thomas will come back and how thing will look healthy
As a bulls fan Im most surprised that the front office are letting this team rock as is, at this point im just hoping that by the trade deadline we can get something for Zach and maybe even Derozan or Vooch
Yes, the bucks weren't expected to have as good a defense as they had last year, but with 2 dpoy level players still on the team nobody expected it to be less than average lmao
It’s a tough one, Brook is a DPOY level drop big, but isn’t anywhere near as good in other schemes. Drop doesn’t work without good perimeter defenders, and the Bucks probably have the worst in the league
As a Kings fan, Harrison Barnes regression is not a problem for us nor has it really showed in game. He’s one of those guy’s who does so much more than his stats show. Idk where BR got that he’s being torched on D, what I see is typical Harrison being a smart player on the court! Also, I don’t want Lavine UNLESS he’s willing to take a backseat in scoring.
Great vid spotlighting every NBA and not focusing on just one.
YOUR THE BEST NBA CONTENT CREATOR NOBODY CAN COMPETE RIGHT NOW!
For the Cavs, it’s definitely been either how bad our perimeter defense has been, or how *godawful* our bench is outside of LeVert. We probably have the worst bench in the league from the 7th through 15th man.
Not to mention our coach refusing to give bates minutes if I see wade again ima be upset
Celtics: 3pt defense. Adding KP makes the defense play more drop instead of the switching defense that led us to the Finals in 2022. I still expected the perimeter defense to be great with JB, JT, Jrue and White out there, but so far this season they’re getting lit UP from three.
thought on okcs run recently?
The 5-1/6-2 start for the warriors had me geeked man. CP had that second unit runnin like he was Shaun Livingston on crack. We’re below .500
Klank Thompson💔
Saying shobby instead of shoddy twice after reading it with concentration is crazy😂
Did Kenny just confuse thesaurus with a dictionary? 😂
Josh Green just doing cardio out there
I think the Ivey situation is good for detroit because the structure of the basketball being played just looks better. Detroit basketball looks better when both sides of the ball is being played.
Yeah I don’t think the Ivey situation is the problem. Does it play apart of why we’re struggling? absolutely. But Cade being our leader needs to show that he wants to win at all cost. He seems more concerned of what he’s doing off the court
braun just went crazy yesterday
In retrospect, looks like we should have been more worried about Josh Giddey's up-and-down start. 🤦♂
Dame and Giannis really need to get sorted out. Figure out how the offense is going to work
Hard since the main offensive coach left before the first game of the season Terry Stotts blazers old head coach who coached dame for 9 years sucks he left
@@KurinKato1 Welk yeah but that doesn't stop Dame and Giannis from spamming pick and rolls.
As a Warriors fan it’s, Defense, Wiggins, Height and not enough scoring outside of Curry. How do we fix that well we trade Wiggins away for a player who can for sure give you 20+ points a night, secondly we might need to trade Kuminga and package a first rounder for a player who can defend and rebound
No, it’s how dirty and old y’all are. I’m glad you finally figured out who Wiggins is💀. That man held me hostage in GameStop his rookie year 🤣
Oh, I thought y’all won that trade??💀💀💀💀💀
we will give you KAT
Nobody would want wiggins right now
As an OKC fan I’d like to also add that we’re being out-rebounded in most games.
hard to grab boards when none of our starting guys are big bodies
Detroit Pistons…… TURNOVERS!
As a raptors fan, I traded for lavine and chruso in 2k for pascal picks and thadius young and we got a ring first season
Lavine is a 2k cheat code
As a Monstars fan, I’m confused why my team has been omitted
I figured rebounding would have been the flaw for okc
As a Raptors fan, Masai and Bobby have burned all the goodwill from the championship already. It's been years and nothing has been done with this god awful bench, and they just keep compounding the issue by giving away frps for aging washed vets and for players they could have signed in the offseason. If Siakam is still on this team by the end of this season it will be a massive failure on the front office.
Man, I’m not a Raptors fan, but I’ve felt this way about Masai for quite some time now. For me, it almost felt like the championship run carried him & his reputation, but since I’m not a Raptors fan, I can’t really say much. Thought the fanbase still love the guy. Good to know there’s some of them who shares the same view as me.
“Shobby” bro what? 😂
Blazers: Scoot Henderson (very limited games so far) Game. I wasn’t expecting fireworks right away but man he’s looked shaky, nervous, well.. like a rookie. Times in our favor, everything we did this off-season is for the long term. I think we were spoiled with Dame being great right away as a rookie but have to remember he was 23. Scoot is still just 19. The injury sucks now, but I’m hoping we can see some progression little by little!
I've been specifically watching Ayton in the game highlights and MAN is he sucking. I watched him literally watch a ball roll away and the other team pick it up the other night. And I think Camara threw his hands up like "are you asleep?"
The Mavs biggest problem is another big man. They can't just rely solely on Lively for their rebounding and inside defense. If the kid get injured they don't have any one else on post. That's how much Lively have impacted the Mavs.
The sixers critique is the guys adjusting to Nick Nurse and that’s quite alright.
I disagree about the Suns' main problem; I think it's *continuity*. Devin Booker is the last one left from the finals appearance against the Bucks, KD came aboard late last season, Monty's gone, etc. It will take time for the team to gel, not just the big 3. I don't know how reasonable it is to expect a team with such little continuity to make it to the finals, but I'm 🤞🤞
As a Knicks fan, I know Brunson's floater will return to form and when it does we gonna be a top 5 offense.
Cavs: Figuring out how to play as a team.
Bro is always short with the Spurs 🤣
I always said tray was clearly overrated and it finally shows... How could anyone had believed that he was even close to the player Luca is
What’s crazy is I basically predicted exactly what would be wrong with the Bucks on defense but I didn’t send the tweet because I didn’t want to look stupid if I was wrong
Main problem for my Cavs is w nepo coaches: Bickerstaff and Walton.
as a magic fan it’s our coach WE START GOGA WHEN MO WAGNER BE DROPPING 20 OFF THE BENCH 😭 other than that we just gotta develop
Wizards:I didn't expect us to be this bad at rebounding, I fully figured Deni and Kuz would be 6+ a night and hoped Gafford would be a consistent double double guy but Gafford leads the team at 7.6
I thought this was Pooles year, but he averaged more pts on the bench last year for Golden State
Warriors fan here.
Central problem is a short center. Warriors must trade Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins or another player to acquire a center taller 🦒 than 6 feet and 9 inches. Cheap as Josh Hartenstein or as expensive as Myles Turner.
Love Kenny dawg, but he didn’t pronounce any words right this vid. Misread everything😂😭
dyslexia kickin yo ass today 😂
As a Heat fan I think our biggest problem is Tyler Herro. That's not to shit on Herro because I like him as a player and a person and I think he get's way too much hate in general but between the playoff run last season and the stretch this season since he's been injured, the team clearly performs better when he's not available. I think the overall on-court chemistry is better when he's off the floor and other players seem to routinely step up in his absence but the problem is that when he's healthy, he has to get minutes. Perhaps an early season trade could be on the cards (I'm looking at you Zach Lavine 👀)
kenny not knowing the word shoddy is adorable
He might be dyslexic
damn, when he got to my team (Orlando Magic) he read it wrong and got it all wrong lol
As a Heat fan, I think our problem is that we are too deep. Thomas Bryant has been a bright spot for us in the first few games and hasn't gotten the same amount of burn in the last two where Kevin Love took his place as the 5 off the bench. Our Wing depth is log-jammed with JJJ, J. Rich, Caleb Martin, Nikola Jovic etc. I'm really concerned about the lack of minutes for Jovic because it would make sense to explore his development either to help the team on the floor or in trade scenarios down the line. No team wants to trade for a 2nd year player that doesn't play. Lastly, can we stop having close games all the time???
Yeah, you gotta to play Jovic at least 10 min a game. You don’t want him to be the next Obi
Trae is holding the Hawks back. If 2021 Trae was on this Hawks team they'd have a chance at 50-55 wins
This is the same Trae as he's always been.
Mediocre shooter for how many attempts he puts up. Foul merchant. Garbage defender. Poor creator of offense (no assist numbers aren't correlated to this).
Hawks got lucky in 2021. Mitchell Robinson was injured for the Knicks and the Sixers had Ben Simmons playing basketball for them.
It's crazy the sixers are a top 10 defense with their only good defender being Embiid.
Kings fan here. funny stat. Barnes is a member of the 3rd best net-rating 5-man lineup so far this year. This worry is perhaps overblown, and that yes, for Barnes, less is more
portland trailblazers biggest issue is the fact we have 5 injuries on the injury report and two of them are starters 😭
Wizards fan here.... I knew the team would be bad this year but not this bad. Poole has been a big L so far him and Kuzma on the floor together is a big problem defensively from what I've seen. Neither one will be willing to come off the bench for this team. I would trade one or both of them at the deadline.
As a spurs fan the biggest problem I’ve noticed is Victor is playing small for his size and shooting way too many threes
He’s more of a wing than a big on O tbh. But it’s more on the Spurs missing him on good looks especially in transition (gotta get a guard that’s a real playmaking threat rather than using Sochan to initiate)
another thing for our team is mid range. When I watch the games NOBODY is pulling from mid and it could be something small that keeps momentum. Especially Wemby bro you’re 7’4 man go and train with KD for the summer and knock down some mid range jumpers to build confidence. We get mid range down it’s over
pacers have the #28 ranked defense and their main problem is that a small part of their #1 offense isn't perfect? bruh what
OKC it's cleary the defensive rebound, how many offensives rebound the opposing team can take is crazy, almost 30 vs Hawks and Pels already
Edit : And again tonight vs Warriors ! So frustrating
