The blame shift is real
🖕🖕🖕Stephen A ...his worst take on first take . He should get fired
Where was the fake outrage when A. Rogers lied?????
He is emotional abut a game I November lol 😂
@@leonardapacanis8604 stay mad. Kyrie is selfish and its pathetic.
When Draymond told KD, “We don’t need you, we won without you”.... he was deadass serious 😂
Clearly they did cuz draymond is the one that recruited him 😂😂
@@unmarredmedia1914 nope, they just WANTED kd like any team in the nba would and kd wanted to play for gs. Warriors never needed him. All they needed was a healthy roster with decent pieces. A healthy steph, klay, draymond and iggy is still a lineup u can contend with
@@unmarredmedia1914 No needing and wanting are two different things.
@@travisitio that’s true 💯
@@chicagorainydayz3611 technically they needed him since a healthy GSW couldn’t keep a 3-1 lead against a healthy Cavs team.
Stephen a said it best, KD will be remembered more for leaving Steph Curry than joining him🤯
I feel so sad for kd he let that snake oil salesman get in his head and now he ain't hoopin for the team🤦🏽♂️
hes avging 30 a game what you talking about
@@Ainttrippin he would avg 30 anywhere what's your point 🤨😪
It’s not true tho
@@bugstepper3528 if KD never wins another ring it will be true, it will be considered the dumbest decision by a player in NBA history
I haven't heard a Stephen A rant this epic in awhile
Mann he ain’t done this since Skip left
He’s right! Kyrie is a virus to the Nets. All the Kyrie lovers are mad cuz Steven A is speaking facts. Tell the NBA you are retired to the NBA so you can stop wasting KD time cuz guess what, you ain’t playing any minutes till you get vaccinated buddy.
Ohhh went off not too long ago when talking about A. Iverson’s situation with the Sixers
It's beautiful to watch
@@Sole650 Lol this didnt age well
When KD hugged curry last night, he told Steph, "Save me bro."
lmao :D
You know he's bouncing. He can't carry a team on his own.
KD could be sitting on a max contract with the Warriors right now. But no, he couldn't bond with the Warriors so he left.
Steph - You know you effed up right? You know you effed up… lol
@@seanburrowes5647 nah he good. He having fun and ballin’ out like he used to before kd
Kd really left the warriors to escape Steph’s shadow just to hear his own Brooklyn fans chanting MVP for Steph 😂
I don't think KD factored in the fan base. But the Knicks fans last year in the playoffs were the loudest in the league..
LMAOOO no cap
Maybe KD should have stayed with the Warriors
don't think kd cares about chants he's not that type of player, not flashy nor promotes much on social media, he definitely wasn't in his shadow in terms of gameplay, 2 finals mvps
Gotta hurt
"We don't even need a coach." - The great philosopher and phenom, Kyrie Irving
yes , Kyrie the great Master Mind. at home getter paid for doing nothing ! really! don't need a coach or a team. nice!
@@edwardwalker5633 he's not getting paid.
@@albertbravo1716 hes getting paid but not for the home games. Hes getting paid 17mil for away games.
@@kelvinosei5836 you're right, I was mistaken. Didn't realize he was getting paid for away games still.
@Sports&music savvy same bro harden really fell off a cliff he’s gotta climb out
I’m a Warriors fan but I’m low key glad Durant left. Even though it would’ve been easier to get more chips we would have been robbed of seeing MVP level dominant Curry like we are seeing now.
Faaaaaaccccttttssss!!!!!
Couldn't agree more
I'm glad he left because, as a fan of a team that isn't the Warrior it wasn't even fun to watch. Unless 2 starters went down no one was beating them. >_
Wouldve definitely made for a more fun gsw cavs finals series if the warriors can still go back to the finals like that. Worst part for me the guy that "destroyed the league" didnt even felt happy about it.
Hated the warriors with Durant on. Not because of Durant, not because of the Warriors, but because of how it happened and what message it sent to the league. Now ? I love the Warriors again. I love how they integrated young players and how they're showing their dominance as a team and not as only a couple superstars. My dream CF ? Phoenix against GS, Miami against Bucks, and then GS vs Bucks in the Finals.
This was a super team at the start of the year. Now KD has “no help”
Yep
Its true, no one stands up when KD has a bad game. Patty Mills is their second best player rn
KD does have help in Harden but he isn’t getting help bcs Harden isn’t playing good rn
Steph plays with minimum guys and rookies but the gsw are stacked? It is called impact on the game. Kd is a iso solo act who is not impacting the game enough.
@@delontewest6353 gs has much better coaching.
No one called it a super team this year. That was last year.
And if you have eyes you’d see that kd doesn’t have much help, except Aldridge from the bench and patty mills sometimes who’s really doing anything?
After these rule changes, I'm officially putting harden on fraud watch.
i agree
The fire should be at Harden, the mandate, and the coach. NOT Kyrie. Joe (Nets majority owner) told him to not play at all
On my soul
🤣🤣
Wrong
KD said they league caught up to the warriors that’s why he left and i have yet to see it.. warriors playing elite basketball right now.
What you smokin
@@fear7126 smoking on the brooklyn nets pack..
It’s early in the season calm down
You can say that if they win the chip, it's way too early
Shut up no one cares
Sums up the teams so far this season:
•Warriors: The Favorites
•Nets: The Contenders
•Lakers: The Comedy
•Wizards: The Surprise
•76ers: The Drama
•Heat: The Dark Horse
•Bulls: The Rising team
•Suns: The Underrated
•Bucks: The Resting Champs
•Clippers: The Meh 🤷🏻♂️
•Jazz: The Regular season champs
•Mavericks: The one man show
•Blazers: The Dissapointment
•Knicks: The Inconsistent
•Hornets: The “we beat strong teams for some reasons” team
•Celtics: The Small ball
•Thunder: The Youth
•Cavs: The Injured
•Wolves: The fake big 3
•Pelicans: Get Ingram out of there
•Rockets: The Rebuild
•Kings: The Nobody cares
•Memphis: The JA show
•Nuggets: The Average
•Spurs: The outdated style of basketball
•Hawks: The cocky
•Magic: This is still a team?
•Pistons: Getting 1st pick didn’t change anything
•Pacers: The underwhelming
•Raptors: Champs only 2 years ago and nobody remembers.
Heat aint no dark horse
Spurs don’t have a superstar anymore and Nuggets have a sidelined Jamal Murray the rest I agree
Bro that's facts asf
😂
Stop the clippers slander.
100% facts. KD leaving Golden State was the worst decision by a superstar in a very long time
Not as bad as him going there in the first place.
@@charlesrobinson2210 I would say you wrong because at least he won... Than I look at Giannas and I slapped myself for even thinking that.
@@kingangel3252 So many things had to happen.
@@libraalibaba but thats the whole point of believing in yourself and having faith. He did and he did it his way.
Leaving a super team with chemistry to form a super team without it is the most Kevin Durant thing to do.
hearing ''the nets are the team to beat'' all summer long aged like *MILK*
ahahah 💯💯💯
Brah it's a trip seeing one of your comments here lol
Neither them or the Lakers are going to the finals and I’m happy with that too
Didn’t know the season was 10 games
😂😂😂
If I was KD and I heard Nets fans cheer for Steph more than the Nets, I'd remember that.
That goes to show u that this is clearly a Knicks town! Don’t be surprised if the Nets arent playing in Brooklyn within a decade, nobody cares about the Nets. Seattle needs a team
Welp it’s too late now. He signed that extension before the season cuz he thought Kyrie was gonna follow 😂😂😂
The nets don’t really have a strong Fanbase in the city of New York. If it was Jersey yeah but Brooklyn is essentially New York’s clippers if that makes sense
Never even heard them cheer for KD as loud either 🤣🤣🤣
💯
ngl this was one of steven a's best rants
I'm so happy KD left the warriors. He made the entire league believe he was the reason golden state won those championships and people forgot about Steph.
People will still say he’s the only reason we won the other two chips but forget we did it without him the first time
💀warriors won the first one becuz kyrie got hurt he came back healthy and yall choked then grabbed kd 😂safe to say yall only won those titles cuz of kd theres no way bron and kyrie were gonna lose to curry and klay it just doesnt even roll off the tongue right lol
@@ktownghost4026 yeah they trying to forget the 3 - 1 debacle. Lol.
@@ktownghost4026 welp it happened so stay mad lol. Always some hater out there trying to act like curry and klay aren’t two of the best shooters to ever do it. We had key players coming off the bench so yeah I think it’s safe to say we win that wether flat earth boy is healthy or not
@@kyledrinksmonster3357 they won one without him and it was against an injured Cavs team
I’ve been saying this. KD will never play basketball as beautifully as he did on Golden State. It was the perfect system for him, and Steph was the perfect PG for KD.
Word!! I was so disappointed when he left GSW because it was the perfect place for an extraordinary basketball career for him..
@Number 1 Facts That’s no lie
@@ComicsLamar he wanted to prove to the haters and doubters that he can win without the help of Steph and the super team they have formed and initially it was just suppose to be ky and KD but then harden came but I still wouldn’t call them super considering they haven’t won anything and as a KD fan he Carries a lot the pressure is on him to be great all the time but he will pull through
Role players need a system. Superstars just play their game. Stop the excuses everytime KD struggles. You have been way too good with him while ranking him as the number 1 player in the league
Yall saying that now after saying he ruined the nba and that his rings don't count...gtfoh. now he wanna win his own way n yall got something to say talking about why he left gsw.
Imagine thinking "I need to leave Steph to go play with flat-earth Kyrie"
I think the only reason he left is because he’s knew warriors will never be his team . Even if they won another ring together ppl would still say “KD can’t lead his own team to the finals”
@@Themikelawry Yeah he can't bro. What's the point?
@@Themikelawry and now on “his team” and the crowd still chants for steph in his own house. Must suck 🤷🏾♂️
@@Themikelawry
So then he decided to team up with an All-Star and a superstar to on paper make it even easier, that just make no sense at all.
KD is a very weird man
Lmao so true
I 100% agree with what Stephen A was saying about the fan base. Watching that game and hearing people LITERALLY booing harden and Aldridge when they were at the free-throw line was blowing my mind.
This was a blast from the past for Stephen A
Yoooooo you ain’t never lying this is Dejavu Stephen A. Did this same scolding rant when KD left OKC for the Warriors.
It’s good to see a classic non filters solid personal passionate take from SAS again. This is what got him in that chair.
It’s hilarious how Steph has been putting up huge numbers since the rule changes were made with minimum FTAs but harden and dame look like 65 ovr generic rec center players without help from the refs.
Dont ever compare Steph to those guys again lmao
Fact
Lillard was never on curry level, it was proven when he got swept by him in 2018 while kd wasn't even playing that series. Yall the one that hype lillard up cause of his numbers the past couple years, he ain't never been that special.
You left out Trae cuz you more he been ballin
@@CANTHATEmeNAME trae was never compared to curry, not by ppl who actually watch basketball anyway
@@chicagorainydayz3611 but James Harden was? Man foh
I was hating on SAS for kicking Max off the show but... this rant reminds me why I also love SAS an analyst.
This was absolute gold to watch, haha.
You are spot on
true
Vintage SAS
That’s precisely how I feel
YAAASSSS!!!
It's really unfair to compare the fans in Golden State with the fans in Brooklyn. We've been watching guys like Curry, Green, and Thompson grow up from being rookies, to all-stars, to champions. Brooklyn fans don't have that level of investment in three mercenaries like Durant, Irving, and Harden. Even when the Warriors weren't having a good season, they were still "our guys" and we did our best to support them. It takes time to build that level of trust between fan and player, and the only way to fast track that is by winning championships, which the Nets obviously haven't done either.
Hold on... Since before they we've been watching.... Yeah even before Mark Jackson too . Yeah . I'm a homer... Survived the quake in 89 n eeryrthang
This one aged soooooo well
Stephen A woke up in the middle of the night smelling blood 😭😭
Period blood lol
Thought they were playing in Oakland the way the crowd was cheering for Curry.
Real Talk! I turned my tv up like, "wait are they cheering for Steph?!" 🤣🤣
Weak fan base. KD fucked up not going to the knicks.
…KD cryin now in brooklyn.
Lol would never happen at the Garden. We’re they really chanting mvp?
And cheering for half of the Warriors shots too.
I was surprised watching it. It was like the Warriors were playing in nearby Sacramento versus the Kings.
He’s right there’s no reason nets should be looking like this. No Kyrie, big problem.
Kyrie in limbo is the problem. They just gotta man up and play like he ain't coming back.. then again they tried this and still failed... kd is the best number 2 you can ask for.. but as a number 1, questionable
He too sensitive to shut up and dribble hahahahaha
@@krutmasterv4791 yeah getting to the finals in your early 20s on top of an mvp season and some of the most efficient scoring ever seen is definitely questionable as a number 1. Idiot
I live by the Barclays Center and I can co-sign on the Nets having zero fan base. You see fans of the opposing team take over Barclays all the time and it’s worse when the Knicks play there and it becomes a Knicks home game. The Nets left their passionate fans in Jersey when they basically moved into the Knicks backyard. As bad as the Knicks been over the years you never questioned the fan base when they show up at MSG. The Nets have made the playoffs the last three seasons and barely make the back pages in NY.
Those MVP chants for Steph had to strike a nerve with KD.
This had to hurt a little bit...
Nahh..he heard those all the time at Oracle. :D
No chance. KD doesn’t need a trophy to know he’s the better player
@@padarousou incorrect kd still hasn't won anything without steph and got swept and clamped by the same team curry cooked Curry>kd simple
@@NANA-hu3mh And steph hasnt won anything without a stacked team... Curry is great but he's a 1 trick pony. Kd can shoot from any range, has post game, has great speed for his size, and can finish at the rim any way he wants
Best thing that ever happened to Wiggins career was KD leaving Golden State.
Minnesota was killing his development.
Wiggins may not be #1 pick talent, but he's a decent 2 way player with the right coaching
@@micahkiyimba8641 I disagree heavily. Maybe he was overhyped but he was still putting up 20 or close to 20 every single season. And now his defense and shooting is improved at tgis time in his career
Minnesota kills everyone's "development." This is one franchise that needs to be dissolved, along with Sacramento, they won't be missed!
Minnesota is a laughing stock. KAT doesn’t even play D. Another statpadder just like westbrook
This was literally the best take of the year with straight facts💯
Indeed
ESPN be smart to push this back out there. SA was on point completely.
*KD goes 6/19 and has the worst +/- on the team*
SAS: “KD has no help”
🎯💯
Fax
The warriors defense is unreal>
No he has help
He was getting double bro lol
This is the same man who criticized Lebron for getting swept in the 2018 finals with an injured Kevin love. Now says KD “has no help”. Lol the double standards.
Preach!!!
He said all time great players don’t get swept, like A.I got u one against the Lakers. LeBron should’ve gotten 1 game
@@bhargavm.889 no other great player carried 4 paperbags to finals either and faced a super team like warriors...he prob still would have if jr smith didnt make one of the worst moves ever in nba history...
Harden was bad but kd was bad to 0-8 in 2nd half lol
@@phantomdancer3279 Iverson pulled one so they wouldn't get swept, it can be done
Finally someone admitted the Barclays Center is a joke. Worst building I’ve ever seen a game in. Trash.
I love when Steven A goes off like this lol this is passion mixed with the truth!!! 😂😂💯💯
"Steph Curry shimmying and joking around "😂 Steph is something else man
Funny how the media loved that when it was LeBron on the receiving end…Now that’s it they favorite almonds to hold, KD they gotta problem 🥴
As a Nets fan, I agree with everything he just said. Fans have to do better, every game ive been to we seem to get quieter and quieter. It’s embarrassing.
FACTS
they need Kyrie for that excitement. KD's game is oviously great, but the way he plays doesn't really get the crowd all that into it. like when Steph makes a 3 everybody cheers. KD gets 20 and it's like nobody cares. Harden struggling. Kyrie with his handles and the way he plays gets the crowd more excited
fans actually liked D’Lo’s nets
@@Zatora11 facts that was a great era
@@Zatora11 I never wanted Kyrie, and yeah Kyrie led to KD. But DLO built himself with the Brooklyn brand and he engrained himself to the city. I like Kyrie I just prefer dlo probably the only one that does
This rant hits different in July 2022.
Stephen Smith is 💯 correct, the first half of the game was great, the 2nd half the Nets were deflated and embarrassed.The Nets without Kyrie will be fighting for a wildcard 🃏..
The +/- for Golden State in the 3rd quarter this year is insane: +9.7 points in third quarters so far for the season.
Stephen A smith is a hater to be honest always talking bad about athletes
Steph Curry was..
Steph Curry is…
Steph Curry will always be better than KD.
Steph Curry dialed his own game back for the sake of the team. He’s never been salty about Iggy winning FMVP. Never been salty about KD winning FMVPs. Steph literally chose winning over personal glory. KD benefited a lot from the cavs doubling Steph even during timeouts. And for him to play like this after KD left shows how deadly Steph is
Bruh, even with kd on the floor, the cavs were still trapping and doubling steph everytime. It was ridiculous. They knew who was the biggest threat on the court. They went with the easiest option to reduce the damage.
If they doubled kd and left steph curry open, they would have got blown by 30 every game.
People underestimate SO MUCH Steph’s impact on the defense. KD shined on that squad (1) because of how they move the ball and (2) because the defense gravitated toward Steph.
Finally, someone else sees KD for what he truly is and understands the greatness that Steph Curry has always displayed!
Bro lay off off the peace pipe 😂😂😂
@@ComicsLamar nah KD was the most important player on that team steph only has 1 if he don’t go there
Its crazy how everytime KD struggles the media wont blame him but they will say that he actually needs more help while he has been playing with at least 2 other hall of famers at his teams. So pathetic
FACTS
But every time his team winning he gets all the credit. It goes both ways.
He didn't struggle though....?
When KD has a good game and they win
SAS: Kd is the best player in the world
Kd plays bad and loses
SAS: Kd needs help
SAS is a clown
Reminds you of another player that’s in LA
KD just needs to be a leader. He needs to assert himself. As much as I like KD, there's still something about him that is lacking.
KD isn't a leader. He's a Jerry Rice not a Joe Montana. There's no shame in that.
He’s a silent assassin he leads by his play imo , he not gonna be Bron in the locker room
Jordan lead by example, Kobe,Kawhi and countless others did the same. So this notion that you have to be extremely vocal and loud to be a good leader is so flawed that it doesn't make sense anymore. Even Curry is a leader by example it's his play that sets the tone for the team.
That's the difference between him and LBJ, always was about leading a team, but people forget that KD is not a leader because he won 2 rings with the warriors behind steph and draymond leadind the team, KD is a phenomenal player, but him and Kyrie are not leaders.
That take was Intense. I feel Steven A. on that. The Nets team along with the fan base are all looking like clowns right now
I just love that chef, green , Thompson have found a way to stay together and this year it has to pay off. Ain't no other teams have the patience.
For us life long warrior fans I promise we appreciate the loyalty and legacy in our new microwave era of the nba
I dont disagree that theres no loyalty or patience in the NBA now. But they have already won a chip with that core so it def makes it easier to keep the band together. To me Giannis staying in Milwaukee was the best example of sticking it through.
And don't you forget Andre Iguodala
Wait a minute are you forgeting boht the bucks they have patience as well
This is why I support the warriors. They are not a bunch of divas
Love or hate the Knicks they would never root for the opposition team or player Embarrassing 🤣😂
Exactly. Brooklyn just full of bandwagons, no genuine fans there
True
Well, I guess y'all done forget about Kobe coming in the Garden and putting up 61 and getting MVP chants towards the end of the game 🤷🏿♂️
@@SiReTV8929 at the same time, kobe was a very humane person that everyone knew on and off the field. still, its pretty clear there are more actual fans on the knicks then the nets
@@SiReTV8929 that's true! lol

Ngl Stephen spitting facts about the Nets losing to respectable teams lmaoo... he failed to mention the Nets losing to the Heat by double digits too
And lost to the bulls

Most people in the arena came to see Steph and are Knicks fans

No help? He has an MVP and top 5 scorer with him
harden sucks without ft's and kyrie ain't there. Aldridge has been the only solid guy for them and he came out of retirement lol
You obviously missed Stephen As point of he’s not playing like it.
this the narrative y'all started when you praised KD for losing to the Bucks, now if he ain't got a superteam he's doing it by himself
@@GreenBeanTeam facts
An mvp who has more free throws made then field goals made LMFAOOOO
Warriors now are once again Champions
The Warriors have a hybrid San Antonio mid 2000’s defense with a hybrid mid 2000’s Phoenix offense. They’ve meshed the best of those two systems to come up with what we are currently seeing. Kd is great, but I don’t think enough emphasis has been put into just how great of a system the warriors have in place, from player development to coaching to front office, it’s a well oiled machine that keeps churning out championship caliber teams led by Steph, Klay and Dray. We are witnessing a dynasty. To think you’re simply going to leave that and capture the success you had there is a stretch.
I never wanna hear another Steph kyrie comparison again. I never wanna hear another KD> Steph argument again.
When Steph is ON, he’s the best player on the planet.
🗣💯💯
Unfortunately he's never on in the finals
CAP
@@sergiobazan1095 Steph averages 27 6 6 on 42% FG in the Finals. You just don’t watch basketball.
You’re not thinking straight. KD is UNIVERSALLY regarded by ALL players as the most unguardable player in the league. Also, the most efficient. Also the most able to fit in any system and still be the best. This is fact.
He ain’t wrong about the fanbase, half the arena was cheering the warriors 😂
That's why its funny his agent came out on the radio a few years ago and said the reason KD did not want to go to the Knicks is cause of Knicks fans. As a Knicks fan this is why I hate KD.
@@camerongoldberg1069 Knicks fans would’ve went crazy for KD but he wanted to go to Brooklyn
He also ain’t wrong about Kyrie. Kyrie sold him out.
The fact that they were calling Steph MVP in KD's house is telling
This is a classic already love your takes SAS
SAS with almost an excellent take. Only part I didn't like was the "KD had no help". He has the worst performance of the season, SAS would never let LBJ go 6/19 and be -25 and give him a break by blaming everyone else.
Thank you
He is saying that the supporting cast is not playing at the level that KD is trying to set
They said this time and time, they hold lebron to a higher standard bc he’s on the same level as Michael. KD will never be on the same level as Mike
U noticed too😏 SAS was never this passionate about LBJ having a YMCA team for almost a decade. Then him only have having All Stars post their prime or disgruntled to play with.
Dude he averages 28 a game you’re a joke dude his help isn’t there if Kyrie there they would’ve stomped everybody
The media is still under appreciating Stephen curry instead of talking about how curry and the warriors are great they talk about kyrie and making excuses for Durant because he struggled

@@letstalk140 kd got a top 10 player on his team while steph dosnt have a top 30

In order to make the Finals games like this against teams like the Warriors matter more than you think.... Did you hear what he said about the Nets losing to respectable teams? He's 100% correct and didnt even mention the heat beating them.
One of those Classic Stephen A Rants! 😂
Stephen a was right all along
KD a mercenary. I am happy Steph finally getting the recognition he deserves.
Kd and Harden is good enough this ain’t got nothing to do with Kyrie 🤦🏿♂️
Yeah it should be but harden really ain’t been himself hopefully he gets it together. 19 points he’s averaging that’s crazy to see from harden. I think SAS overreacting but harden does need to start getting in his bag
First of all, Harden is playing levels under what he can play. And ofcourse the turmoil with Kyrie affects the team
@Number 1 Facts 💯
@Number 1 Facts
So Harden is playing his best ball in Brooklyn ??
it does because KD chose Steph or Kyrie. So far that's been maybe the dumbest decision in NBA history
That 117-99 gsw win should have been more. Gsw took out the starters the last 5 minutes of the game. They were on fire!
Steph & Wiggins were on foul trouble.
@@trev2x yeah they didn’t play most of the third, and they were the hottest out the group
Under 100 is a statement in this day and age.
Hold Up. We got 2 starting Squads.
It was KD's worst game in some time
Some of Stephen A's best work right here
The Warriors are my home team and I’m lovin’ this.
This is the most epic rant by a New York fan 😂😂
This was old school Stephen A lol
2012 2013 Stephen a lol
Imagine a Skip to counter it
Not the SELLOUT SAS that's had this show TANKING in rating as of late and Undisputed is on the come-up like AEW over WWE these days
Speaking badly about Black athletes as usual
@@Jtownprice Any man that says another Black man should not get paid should be banned from all networks
my fave stephen a take of all time
KD on joining the Brooklyn Nets: I don’t like the Warriors franchise, so I want to be the face of a franchise where I can win a real ring to establish a Winning Culture for Brooklyn!!
Kyrie Irving after betraying the Nets and KD: Embrace Yourself!! Your Career is about to be 10 times more Miserable!!!🤣😂🤣😂
He deserves all the BS 🐍
“10 times more Miserable” a grown man broke that’s broke typing from mom’s basement
WOW 😮 Stephen in. this probably his most on point take in a longgggg time real shxt imo. he went IN 💯
Finally a good take.
to think, KD left GSW because he felt the fan base didn't love him there. Now this? Steph taking Brooklyn's fan base. can't write it any better than this..
Should have went to Knicks..
Best SAS take of 2021👌🏾
1st time in 3000 years I agree with Stephen A Smith..... Man he is spot on...
The lack of Kyrie should be no excuse.
Basically, steph is the only superstar on his team, and the nets need 3?
Come on.
Then when the warriors try to get a second superstar people will say "Ow steph can't do it by himself"
Yeah KD has Kyrie and Hardem.
LeBron has AD and RUSS.
They would gang up on steph.
Ty
Makes up for the last 6 years
No love for Draymond as a superstar lol?
@@brandanholman453 cmon he's a star at best
@@brandanholman453 he's a star. But he doesn't do much scoring, he's a very good player though, he's no AD /HARDEN
People won’t wanna hear it but SAS is right. Kyrie not being there helped lead to this loss and the season the nets are having. KD went to Brooklyn to play WITH kyrie. At least when KD was out in 19-20 he literally couldn’t play. Kyrie is sitting out on purpose . He really can’t be trusted
Hahaha 🤣
How tf is he sitting out on purpose ? We forced to be vaccinated there’s some hidden agenda in that and he’s actually standing up for it. You probably another vaccinated robot walking the streets
@@barryallen2209 lol and he even said he'll play the road games but Brooklyn didnt want him
He's not betraying KD some things are more important than sports. Stephen A clearly doesn't get it
@@barryallen2209 exactly
Tony and Jose , haha !! Love this stuff
First time I hear this man speak facts in a long time. 👍🏾👌🏾
Even without Kyrie, there is no reason why anyone should be talking about the Nets like this with the talent they have on the roster. If the team doesn't work, it doesn't work, but it's not just because of Kyrie.
Steve Nash can’t coach a possibility?
@@r0b0gam3r9 maybe. He's still early in his career, so who knows. I'd like to think it's not Nash, but we just don't know.
@@SpicyOliv It's not Kyrie. It's not Nash. Who's fault is it then? The cleaners?
@@TheRadFactor I think it's a bit more complicated than the pattern in which someone sweeps.
I'm not letting Nash off the hook. As a nets fan. Nets played better under Jacque Vaughn than Nash and Kenny Atkinson. Rotations etc etc, enough blame to go around. That warriors game had curry looking unstoppable. Almost surreal to see. KD didn't look like a star that game and the help wasn't help. It was pathetic. Then again nets had injuries. Harris, claxton, Millsap weren't there on top of kyrie being absent
How can you have harden as a teammate and say KD has no help.!!!????
Cause Harden playing like hot dog water right now since the refs stopped calling fouls
Not only that the team is loaded
bro look at harden’s numbers. he isn’t james harden anymore lmao
@@ssjethann he played better than kd yesterday
@@chicagorainydayz3611 That doesn't say much considering KD played horribly. Harden played slightly less horribly.
This is stronger now with where the nets are at now.
I have to admit it. I usually don't agree with Steven A. But he was very accurate in what he said about The nets and The Barclay Center and Kyrie.
Alright guys, Stephen A. deserves an Emmy after this. This is the realest thing I've seen from him
True
And The Emmy goes to Mr. Stephennnnnn Currryyyy Whoo Whoo🙌🏽🙌🏽🏀🏀🏆🏆
KD has help. And he didn’t play that well himself this game
He speaking facts tho
Yo rd
Classic Stephen A rant right here 💯 love it
I can only imagine KD watching this with a tear coming down in his face mad at himself punching the air.
He’ll be mad fr hahaha
Like Tre from Boyz N The Hood
