Rob was shocked, "Disposal!?!" Lmao 😂😂😂😂. That caught me off guard too lol
Bro said “whores?!?!”
Lol
Rob about to get Chris cancelled 😂
Chris gonna get a call from upper management at Fox!

Lol... About this disposal you speak of
"Beautiful women at your disposal"
Brou keeping it real
Did Rob Parker give Vogel ultimate coaching credit for the SAME 2020 championship he criticizes Lebron for???
You heard that correctly 😂
🤣
6:58 "Beautiful women at your disposal" - Chris Broussard.
He didn't lie, anything for a dollar
But you gotta know what to do with those beautiful women.

Josh Kiddey?
He wasn't that happy after his first Chip because he knew he joined a juggernaut and it probably didn't feel authentic to him.
He wasn’t happy cause yall was hating on him
Of course we were hating on him, he destroyed that rivalry, we missed out on 2 epic series because of KD
Lo only in North America
@@JohnnytNatural He was a free agent. He wasn't vibing with Russ so him going back to OKC was out and those series were not going to happen regardless.
Neither championship feels authentic to KD.
Social media is one of the worst things that was ever invented. I'm 31 years old and I've never been on it, and I don't think I could be any happier with my life. All these athletes need to shut their accounts down
All while you type this on a social media platform
KD will never be happy 💯
Not until he wins without Steph.
Yep. Cause he dont know what makes him happy...
@@leir2005unfortunately it will be hard for him now
He happy. Playing basketball
He is introvert and ppl are forcing there opinion on him
@@leir2005And that’s never gonna happen unless he joins another stacked team, like Boston or Minnesota or Denver.
Durant is a basketball Mercenary.
That’s lebron

Very interesting 🤔
Lebron won everywhere he went
@@GENUINESONnot cuz of him
KD wants the role Kyrie had in Cleveland with zero accountability
Nah Rob cute is the wrong word to use in that lol, the better term for Durant's MVP speech about his mom is heartfelt!
Don't word police. If he felt it was cute, it was cute. It's his opinion
“Wholesome” was the word he was looking for
At times stephen a. running is mouth is a problem.
It's not gonna surprise me that this narrative was released by Suns management.
They're too arrogant to accept their errors. We've seen this tactic even way back in KD's OKC days.
An article was released from someone who covers OKC named "Mr. Unreliable"
It's an attack to KD and defending Russ.
OKC management loves Russ, not KD.
The media makes no sense. Yall say the team isn’t built right, yall say Brad isn’t good enough, yall say KD is NBA dead…. then say they gotta win a chip…. But nobody is gonna pick them to win the chip.
Someone once said the movie Soul is about Kevin Durant
💀💀
Hahahahahahahaha!!! I thought that movie was pretty good and I was a big KD fan in his OKC days. This reference is really proper. Bravo!
Maybe soul plane
Who cares about another grown man's happiness?
I despise people who think keeping to yourself is somehow shade toward others. Ive always heard from people "why dont you talk to me" when they have never once tried talking to me. And you saying that to me guarantees me never talking to you. Kevin just seems to not like people and that can be tough when a part of a team, but he isnt some bad guy.
Maybe KD is gay. He ISN'T married and a father like King LeBron James and Curry
He's introverted, and people are weirdos
@@PIERREVALER1guess you forgot when KD tweeted he wanted to drink scarlet johansson bath water
If KD doesn't have any kid he's definitely gay, there's no way a player of his level doesn't have at least a few kids
@@PIERREVALER1 he has kids lol with baddies but ur probably actually gay lmfao for bringing that up out of the blue, and its ok to be gay no1 is going to judge you
The fact that they can just say anything about someone that literally has not said a word is frightening. They just broke down his mental state based on opinion or what steven a thinks. Smh
Facts
I was thinking the same thing. I hate that "media" is a job. They literally just talk crap about strangers for a living.
But we celebrate them talking crap about LBJ all day everyday. But then when they finally do it to another great player, it's a problem smdh.
That’s the stuff that kills me
Simp
When Rob said disposal 😂
KD is the most miserable athlete ever. Dude needs therapy.
When you realize most regular people think money will solve all their problems.... Well KD has the money and fame etc...then you figure out you still aren't happy. Hes human
He just needs to team up with LeBron, at this point no one would be hating
@@umbreonpokemon8190best comment on youtube
And u here crying. So who is miserable😂?
Durant is a good fit with the Knicks.
Its why i say family is so important for a man.. you can be successful and even achieve great things but before i got my wife n kids.. i was kinda the same.. as a man your just kinda there going through life.. because outside of my family nothing gave me the fulfillment that actually lasted.. it all faded slowly overtime but having a family feels like my greatest achievement
Family is not meant for everyone
Nothing is guaranteed, what happens when your wife leaves you or your kids turn worthless, plenty of examples where family life ruins a man
@@JohnnytNatural look at Shaq ex-wife situation. There are a lot of women like Shaq ex wife. They view players as their retirement plan. Women are smart and think long term
He does have a family, his parents, brother's and sisters and no one knows if he has a girlfriend. He may want to protect them from conversations like this. Everybody not like the Kardashians and want all their business in the streets
@@cyrilduru5834bingooooooo😂
They arent breaking up the "big 3", so the front office is the ultimate problem
They can't virtually beal can't b moved the contract terrible and ur not moving book he the future and u don't just move on from kd but that might b the only way
The issue is, it's not a big 3. They have two number 2 options and Beal who may not even be a 3 at this point because of his health
KD and Bron are the faces of the softest era of the NBA. Both of ring chased and got coaches fired, and never get the blame even when we know it’s them.
That’s why Steph is the don💯💪🏿
Bron left cleveland bc Cleveland sucks and he was never going to be able to bring in the free agents he needed to win playing there. KD was up 3-1 on the team he joined bc he knew deep down he wasn't good enough to win in OKC
@@Dipset415Steph got the black man fired
@@Dipset415never will be
You’re wrong LeBron has won a chip everywhere he’s been. Say what you will about kd but don’t diss the King.
So easy to say what you wouldn’t do when you’re not in the situation. Sports media is everywhere hard not to see or hear it
“Disposal”?!!! Nah that’s a wild thing to say on air 😂💀💀
I’ve always said that KD is mentally tough because he never allowed the criticism and insults to derail his performance and that has always impressed me. If he was truly sensitive he would’ve buckled under the pressure. Instead, he outplayed everybody in the 2017 and 2018 NBA Finals and collected 2 Finals MVPs. Again, this is with so many people publicly wanting him to fail. That’s MENTAL STRENGTH !!!
How about the last couple seasons guy
Cute is not the word to use when someone wins a league MVP, on any level
Send him to Utah since he just wants to play Basketball without expectations
A Markannen KD duo would be a title contender
This why I had to re subscribe y’all two the only ones that be honest. Every other media platform blames the coach.
Coaches are to blame also, gm are at fault mostly tho and they never get blame
3 All-Stars with no point guard, no power foward,, and no bench but championship or bust?? Is a JOKE!!!!
The beal deal was wrong. Be is not good anymore from the last 2yrs.
only 3 all stars huh lol
Why we got dudes who could barely get their GEDs in the comments speculating about his mental health like they know KD personally 🤔🤣
How would you know who has a GED ? Really
@@Ceteprime hit dogs hollering 🐕
Bottom line: KD is maladjusted.
The hard truth is a lot of us are maladjusted
Other than basketball, his career do you know him personally
@@evenebrown7353 hi KD.
I thought you knew him personally since you playing Dr phil
@@evenebrown7353 i know your daddy deserted your family and your moms and pops eventually divorced.
i know your grandma raised you.
i know your father re-entered your life in your teens and tried to make amends.
oh wait. That's KD's excuse for being a weasel.
This is what happens when you have people in leadership (GMs) that lack patience. Imo they should’ve kept the squad as is. Coach and all
Disposal 😂😂😂
Chris gonna get a call from upper management at Fox!
KD a introvert but he also missing something and that’s a Family and he has trust issues with women I bet 💯 if he had a wife and kids dude outlook would be different
You already know.
I agree
yea i agree why he doesnt have a girl or wife is kinda weird not judging but just weird especially with the height status and money etc.
@@SSGourmet702that makes it the hardest
Im not sure about that. I was happy and enjoying life before I got married + kids. To be honest, the worse thing you can do is depend on wife and kids making you happy
6:58 beautiful women at your disposal
What Chris??? What?? 😂😂
Chris gonna get a call from upper management at Fox!
The grass always seems greener on the other side..
You can't force leadership on someone
He is a introvert that plays basketball
He doesn't have to be a leader, but he needs to be a teammate.
Excuses for routinely getting swept in the playoffs.
So you think wolves were second seed for no reason.
And playing games you don't win every time
Rob please stop making baseball references when talking basketball
Why?
Maybe KD is just an introvert that just wants to play basketball
Really this simple
Just call him a bus rider then. He's not him.
Why is the Media so press to have KD change his character of who he is. He just likes to play basketball and develop his game. Everyone else need to do their job
He thinks he should be in the GOAT conversation. Which is ridiculous. You can’t just hoop and have zero interest in being a leader, then expect anyone to view you as the possible GOAT.
When you play with other people that matters, You can't have the mindset of "let me just do me" you have teammates and coaches that you have to mesh with. Not talking to an coach for over a month is a huge red flag.
@blaketindle4703 He leads by his game on the court and encourages his teammates to put in the work. He doesn't fight his teammates who do not want to improve their game. He typcially shows up, and their is more than 1 way to lead. So I can understand with his skill set why he would feel he should be in a GOAT convo. But he knows his career accolades doesn't match up to GOAT.
@enigma13ff Not talking to a coach outside the game is nothing new. He clearly talks to him on the court, which should be the most important thing. I have never heard a teammate talk negative about KD the person or his game. Draymond is the only person who says slick stuff, and it's typcially an angle to glorify his man, steph. Teammates say when they go to KD house, he makes them watch Jordan or some type of basketball game because the man bleed basketball. This is why it's one of the reasons I believe he has never been married. If I was KD teammate an a grown man, I would have no need to be friends outside the game with KD as long as we ball goof together on the court or if I know I can come to him if I need him.
I have never heard any player coach kd play with say all these negative things like the media other than draymond and it is because he is jealous and was scared that gs would kick him out because of durant. Draymond is petty and full-on himself. Kd doesn't have to be what the media or folks want him to be, if he happy, I am happy. People needcto stop listening to media and dovtheirvown research. Kd is a great philanthropic. He gives to what ever city he plays in, building basketball courts, providing funding for students to go to college, he and his family give out free meals and clothing. He rebuilt a basketball gym for a hbcu college in his hometown. If all you listen to is nba media you would not know anybofbthis because that is how they roll when it comes to kd
Would love to see KD back with Steph
Durant is like Doug Heffernan, "I just want to drive."
Rob and CHRIS especially, STILL TRYING TO SELL US ON LEBALCO LESCUSES
rent free
cry
Another reason KD can be unhappy, LeBron lives in KDs world, adulation or scrutiny included. He doesn't get the love Lebron got, not even the scrutiny cuz it comes back to LeBron. Geez, can KD have anything for himself?
@jandt3463 the irony is if kd would have went and joined kyrie and lebron in cle instead of warriors he would have been loved and better off.....
Cuz warriors fans w
Didn't respect kd he'll the gm didn't, cavs fans would have loved kd because it's a TRue sports town. And he would have won with his buddy kyrie.
But his ego got in his way and he thought he get live for stopping lebron with Stephen, now he regrets it
KD just be high. These fools just don’t understand it. He’s an introvert and a seed head = keep to himself
I called into the show when this was live,mentioned it’s open season when “reporting” on KD. I suggested KD needs himself a Shannon Sharp, Nick Wright, Rich Paul etc. to do his bidding for him and of course Chris Broussard cut me off multiple times and the call abruptly ended lol. These talking heads are bought and paid for (networks ESPN/FS1/Klutch Sports), scared to tell the truth. The same way KD hasn’t been happy in Phoenix, we could say the same for LBJ this season and others in LA. LBJ says crying in the media for help, pouting, displaying poor leadership and body language on-court & influencing coach firings.
Jay Williams is the KD representative on ESPN....
@@Sandcastle992 the point is LBJ is protected by the “analyst” from Chris Broussard, Nick Wright, Shannon Sharp, Colin Cowherd, Malika Andrew’s etc. They loved the Suns coach being fired so they could take the heat off of Lebron for the Darvin Ham firing and divert the negative attention KD’s way. Pointing the cap all day long for LBJ but everyone else gets all the criticism no problem. No integrity.
phoenix been good but the thing is other teams are also being good every season. plus kevin is getting older and other teams have players that can actually slow durant and lebron down
KD just collecting checks he is just the oil while the team is trying to make Kool-Aid. It is called team chemistry for a reason.
im telling you he should go to clipps to form trio with kawhi and zion. 3 overlooked players in nba together. thats a real big 3
Kevin Durangt is the most miserable superstar in all of sports. I've never seen a guy who has so much and gets whatever he wants be so miserable in the process.
Send Durant to Atlanta for Trey and he can disappear and just play basketball until he retired with no expectations for the rest of his career. This trade works
I hope so. Atlanta would be better without Trey and we got the #1 pick that we can trade to sweeten the deal 👏🏾
One of the 3 has gotta go because of the cap. Knicks should try and get Durant.
No they shouldn’t. They’d have to gut their team to get him.
@@blaketindle4703 The Knicks? No, they have cap space and draft picks to trade. Plus the Suns NEED to shed payroll so one of the big 3 has to go regardless.
KD strikes me as being one of those guys that are never happy no matter the situation.
Sarunas Jasikevicius one of the best coaches in Europe
Bruh! We never gonna bring up Devin Booker at all.
No one brings up roll plsyers.....it's the whole problem. With sports media,it's lbj fault Stephanie ants kds ....
It's like ppl forget it's a team sport....
But thank "hot take" culture for that
If they not talking about LBJ they are talking negative about KD. Still mad because he went to the Warriors.
Kd mad he went to the warriors
It was the dumbest and weakest move....not even warriors fans/gm respected kd.....
Honestly he would have gotten more respect I'd he joined kyrie and lbj in. Cle.....because then he would not have joined the team who JUST bear you.
Kd decisions to join the warriors ruined his basketball legacy and his peice of mind.
Even if he stayed in okc with no rings he would habe been better off
Clinic
Money cannot be the only glue of pieces to happiness. That's why Chris saying he's a "Christian" but not able to offer guidance to becoming happy from the inside out shows the placement of money before true enlightment comes first.
It shouldn't be an issue to speak on if he was about that life. The truth doesn't need to be hidden although it does need to be fed in doses according to the level of understanding the receiver has.
Kd need to talk to lebron about going zero dark 30
One of the VERY FEW TIMES I agree with Rob KD doesn’t like the expectations nor the pressure or the responsibility of being a leader on the team HE JUS WANNA HOOP , win lose or whatever he jus wanna HOOP
Everyone is not built for the pressure of leading and being the man. You see it with Hardin and Durant. Playoffs come and Hardin disappears. When Durant was in Golden State, he played his butt off but he was not expected to be the man therefore he delivered
Why can’t the discussion be about ppl who are still in the playoffs
From regular jobs to the NBA, employment is the same. It doesn’t matter how skilled you are if you’re constantly showing how unhappy you are, how standoffish you are in the office, someone who avoids talking to the boss… gtfo.
It’s funny Rob say nba dead but the last couple days every network is talking about him
Why didn’t Michael “accountability” Wilbon mention this?
Because kd is nor in the goat convo, and it don't effect mj....
He’s going to the nuggets for mpj Christian Braun and two 1st rd picks
The role he wants is the one that should be provided... he wont find it from creating superteams because theyll expect him to be the star. KD wants to be the hi poweres number 2 with no responsibility. So he has to be next to a strong number one like Edwards or Luka. Someone who would play likes hes not on the court for the most part. Granted he hated Russ but he ran away from the player type he wants to be next to.
The team needs a PF and PG that’s the problem.
Why is espn pushing lebron and kd instead of talking playoffs?
Bro Kevin Durant didn't like the Golden State Warriors offense evidently..
The 73-9 offense before he got there, arguably the best offenses of all time.
He didn't like it so much so, that during a play at the top of the key.
Stephen Curry told Kevin Durant to set a screen for him, and Kevin Durant denied the leader of the team, and clapped for the ball. So Curry just passed him the ball. That then pissed Draymond off. And Kevin Durant shot a three from the top of the key over a Defender and bricked it.
Steph: I told you to set a screen.
KD: I had a shot..
Steph: It aint about YOU KD.!
I still haven't forgiven him for that play.
No Chris Broussard, they were not a championship team and that is why nobody expected much of them. You can't tell ppl what to expect from a roster we clearly know won't be that effective in beating team even after seeing them for 82 games not deliver anything special. Why would we expect a championship from that Suns roster? What indication would we go on? With the Lakers there was the play-in mickey mouse thing but from the Suns, we saw absolutely nothing. Rob said it best really, KD is an NBA dead, nobody is looking at him.
KD is too soft for me. Great player ,great scorer ..horrible leader.
When will people realize money does not equate to happiness for everyone.
KD can’t find happiness or lead a team to the promise land
Wow the hate for KD is unreal, how about ppl worry about achieving their goals and stop worrying about a grown man playing basketball world is sick
If KD had any 🥜's, he'd go bk to Golden State & tell them get rid of Draymond
People think that money and women solves most, if not all of a man's problems..... Happiness is in within yourself.....
Send him to San Antonio with Pop, Lebron, Bronny and Wemby
biggest mistake was firing monty
Sarunas Jasikevicius of the best coaches in Europe
Yeah he should turn it off Broussard
Kevin Durant is basketball’s version of Jubei Kibagami from ‘Ninja Scroll.’ An assassin for hire.
But he can't assassinate.....
KD is only happy trolling online
In this style of life of superstar in NBA and worldwide you deal with a lot of false people ,self-interest, criticism so its hard to keep up.... Money only buy material stuff ,unfortunately we live in a system that depends on generating capital.
So where is his credit ,if certain things not right.
"They say he doesn't look happy" and other unsubstantiated other word salad
Ima just say it. None of us truly know how he feels or thinks but I would just personally bet that he either is depressed or regrets all of the decisions he made when leaving OKC. I don’t care about the snake jokes, he was a free agent and able to do whatever he wanted. However, it just seems like the dude maybe is reflecting and doesn’t like the road he’s on anymore. It’s okay to miss his old team.
Naw he meant disposable loo
KD will never be satisfied because how he left okc. Had he went to any other team other than GS he wouldn't be miserable.
But I think you’re letting him off the hook because if he had not asked out of Brooklyn and just stayed with the Nets, he would’ve played for an organization where he had no expectations of winning. Once kyrie was gone, he could’ve just hooped.
I guess kd forgot about spurs lol of course we expect it 😂
These are great points. Now that I think about it, I remember when Durant used to carry a backpack with a bible inside.
Rob and his GD "Ya know what I mean"?
KD has his rings he doesnt really care to much about titles now
You really think he doesn’t care? If that were the case he wouldn’t be crying about wanting to be considered top 10 😂
Let’s be real, he doesn’t really have any rings
Certain players aren't good teammates
I think that steph 4th ring took all the joy from Kevin
It was cute 😂
Any take on the Suns is a weak take. It’s very obvious this team is going nowhere based on the roster age/health and the landscape of the West.
Funny thing is Lebron ain’t want none of these coaches or vouched for but somehow he got rid of them, if he was making front office decisions Lakers would have Ty Lue who’s Bron guy, they would also have Kyrie when Brooklyn wasn’t even asking much for him
Derek Jeter also had a ton of women at his disposal! 😂
Great content. If I were an owner. I would sit Kevin down and ask him. What would make you happy as a player on my team? And if his answer is too far-fetched, I would say back to him, that's a pip dream, that will never happen. So you need to retire.
or is he saying he wants to get back to that happy place. okc? just a thought...
Nope
