The Bill Russell section till the end had me dying haha, he's got a point though, in todays game players have the privilege of basketball being their life full stop.
I don't really agree with Michael Rapaport, but I like his talk. Guy's so energetic, so entertaining. Love it. Not agree with him, but love his style. =D Anyone with me?
Was with him till he brought up united. You should care another person was beaten and dragged because he refused to give up the service he paid for. That's something worth being offended by.
i'm glad he said what he said about the era bill russell played in. nobody who played in that era would be a hall of famer today. he shot 43% as a big man. the year robertson averaged a triple double was when only 2 teams in each conference didn't make the playoffs...and robertson's team was one of those teams. chamberlain was the only one who could've been good in this era and even then he wouldn't get 100 points against today's centers, or block 20 shots against the guys in the league now. the nba was like a ymca league at the time.
it's hard to say that. he was a freak of nature, but his stats are inflated because of the way the game was played back then and the competition he faced. in his time it wasn't uncommon for players to average over 15 rebounds a game
+Rudy Cooper why is that? just because he was a better scorer than deandre doesn''t mean he would be a better rebounder. he wouldn't grab 50 rebounds in a game going up against deandre jordan.
We talk about who's the MVP so much b/c the regular season is boring af. It's also the same reason why people talk about the random, unnecessary drama off court more than the actual games.
Colin had another video today which is all about how they had to make false stories in a boring regular season. He hates that the MVP race is the #1 story. It's a joke.
Bro Rapaport had me dying laughing but he can't disrespect Bill Russell like that. He'd be good in today's time. Not as dominant but he's still be great at rebounding and defense
not really, weightlifting is fairly new in NBA except for a few exceptions, bill would of got bigger if he played today, magic only benched 135 when he retired, when he wanted to come back he got his bench to 300 so he ain't get manhandled on the court
According to Colin, Lebron left MIA because championships resided in CLE. His argument works when Lebron left CLE but it falls completely apart when he returned to CLE.
I like what Mike said about hating greatness. All this criticism for Bron, while folks giving these other "superstars" pass after pass every season for not accomplishing nothing. Just shows folks don't give a damn about the other guys unless Bron in the convo. Kyrie was in Cleveland four years not a soul cared or talked about him. Love was a double double machine in Minny and couldn't sneak in the 8th seed once. They play with Bron all of a sudden they so great now.
Criticizing Westbrook for shooting 42% is like criticizing LeBron for shooting 40% in the 2015 NBA finals, despite being the reason why the series was 6 games long. Westbrook HAS to be play like this for them to win.
SA is the only difference between the EC and WC? Who are the best teams in the league? It's GSW, SA, HOU, CLE, LAC. So....the east has ONE team in the top 5....so...the west is over rated? His adoration for LBJ is so unconditional, he even resorts to dismiss the disparity between to WC and EC to hide the fact that LBJ is hiding in the east.
If he really wants to rant about something in sports.Let,s rant about how defenses, are defanged and clawed in the Godell Football League.The Jim Burt hit was when defense was still allowed to get after people, star quarterbacks were just another guy on the field.
When Lebrick when back to Cleveland Michael predicted and said he was going to leave Cleveland again and Colin was like "nah, he's here to stay can't leave them again" and now he's like "yeah, he should leave". LMAO
Two media clowns talking about a man who has played in 6 consecutive Nba finals like he is a chump,Lebron walked the walk. I hated Lebron when he left for Miami ,I thought it was a weak move BUT he came back, thats all that matters. He gave his city life again AND won a championship .Aside from being the best player in the league for consecutive years,the guy created thousands of jobs and opportunities in his city. Also Lebron stands up for social issues SOMETHING JORDAN HAS NEVER DONE BECAUSE HE WAS AFRAID IT WOULD HURT HIS POCKET. He is a great man and all you guys do is gossip like a bunch of women saying he is soft and all that. Its sad ,very sad
Colin Cowherd How is lebron better then kobe when kobe is 5/7 , him beating 3 first ballot hall of famers with a broken finger is more impressive then beating the warriors in the finals.
Prez Bryant u sound stupid af....that's last yr comeback nvr been done in history....and Kobe got 5 rings 2 MVP finals ...which he got that last 2 finals ..so the first 3 shows he was no alpha
Colin shows his true character with his United Airlines comment. Disappointed in his character but not surprised. Usually this isn't a simple mistake but a glimpse inside the real person.
edwin ramirez The Lakers did tbh. Everyone forgets all the time Magic, James Worthy, and Kareem were a big three. Then the Celtics(parish, bird, McHale), and bulls(Jordan, pippen, and rodman).
Then you know nothing about basketball lmao. Look up Wilt Chamberlain archive on Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell's competition. He destroys this clown Rappaport.
Should we just get rid of free agency? Because we need to stop pretending free agency is okay and then slamming players for actually exercising their free agency.
Talk about Klay Thompson resting last night and Steph Curry getting exposed lying about an injury but really resting on Saturday vs. the Pelicans . But the media doesn't talk about that
NBAbram well the difference between the Cavs resting and Warriors resting is one of the teams clinched 1st and Home court. While the other lost first because they rested.
Colin says Westbrook REALLY cares about the MVP? Everytime he gets asked about the race or the award he either doesn't answer the question or says he doesn't care and that winning championships is his main goal. Harden was the one that went out and said "I thought wins matter." Seems like Harden cares.
Tod Wilkinson yeah but lebron IS top ten for me he's def better than David Robinson. But I could def hear arguments for Shaq Kareem and hakeem. Only problem with Hakeem and Shaq is longevity. Lebron already has them beat in sustained sucesss but he doesn't have Kareem beat. Kareem also was like undefeated in highschool won 3 NCAA championships woulda been 4 but freshman had to play jv and NCAA banned dunking because of him creating the skyhook
D Stud Disagreement the Rockets aren't a great team just had a great Season Rockets 4-3 over Thunder Then Rockets get they teeth kicked in by Spurs or Warriors
Dear The Herd: "Michael Rappaport would have Bill Russell #1 if those 11 Boston Celtic NBA Titles were in New York" * in the words if Michael Rapaport: "I'm into rings & things"
FreshMoney forreal. lebron's great, but ppl act like he's never been beaten in the finals. Shannon sharpe said on his show, "You'd bet against him???" Uh, yea. If you bet against him every year in the finals, you'd have won more than you lost! 3-4
J Kareem 6 Rings Kobe 5 Rings Kareem 2 Finals MVP's Kobe 2 Finals MVP's Kareem 6 MVP Kobe 1 MVP Kareem 38,387 Points Kobe 33,643 Points Kareem 55% FG Kobe 44% FG Kareem 19 Time All Star Kobe 18 Time All Star Kareem NBA All Time Leading Scorer Kobe NBA All Time Leader in Missed Shots Kareem better basketball player then Kobe easily.
J idk about all of that he beat dwight howard in the finals one year, AI alone another year & jason kidd and some role players for another ring. Not exactly stifling competition there
what about lebrons first 2 years in the league missing the playoffs, then got swept in the finals in 07, then lost in the playoffs every year after that before going to miami and joining a super team in his prime while being called king and best player in the world?? stop acting like that didnt happen. then still lost with that super team his first year in miami in the finals. while getting out played by a 35 year old role player in the nba finals. lebron only averaged 17 per game. yes he been to 6 straight finals , but he didnt win all 6. he is 3-4 in the finals it took him 14 seasons to win 3 rings. stop acting like that didnt happen. by jordans 13th year he was 6-0 in the finals. after getting dismantled by the spurs lebron ran back home and made another super team in cleveland orchestrating a kevin love trade and joining Kyrie irving. lets face it Lebron is a FRAUD. a great player, just not as good as the media makes him out to be. he's not a top 10 all time player but he is a top 20 but thats it.
craig smith so you expected a 22-year-old with that trash roster to beat a dynasty spurs team name me one player in history to do that and please don't tell me jordan because he was 1for9 by himself
craig smith im happy he went back to Cleveland because with wade always hurt and bosh not playing at a high level anymore they would continue to lose and lebron would have carried that team and still catch the blame just like when he lost to the gsw in 2015 even though he led both teams in points assist and rebounds and Jordan's 6-0 is overrated because unlike Jordan lebron faced teams with way more talent
mangmans I'm a Brady hater but I have to tell the truth Brady is a better QB then Montana. Brady 5 Rings and 4 Superbowl MVP's and 7 Superbowl Appearances Montana 4 Rings and 3 Superbowl MVP's and 4 Superbowl Appearances
. . .Pooh you don't think I knew that? did you also forget that Montana never threw a interception in a SB? It's my personal opinion, for brady to pass Montana he needs another SB Win to cover up for his 2 losses & interceptions. To even be mentioned in the same breath as Montana is a compliment, not that Brady even cares what you and I think.
Math is hard Colin and Mike "LBJ has been there more than Kobe", ahhhh Kobe 5-2=7, LBJ 3-4=7 Cmon man do your research you guys are suppose to know sports.
Kobe got carried for 3 (and he needed referee help in 2002 and 2010 vs Boston), is selfish, is massively overrated in the "clutch gene" department, and drove away stars that would have allowed his teams to win more. Kobe is great, but he's not a top-10 player of all time (not even a top 3 laker). Lebron is AT LEAST top 5 all time. Lebron is a better defensive player, has carried his teams to the finals without great Centers, is a willing passer, and is far more capable of being clutch both offensively and defensively when the chips are all on the line -A Los Angeles native resident for over 20 years.
I love Kobe, but stop. Lebron is so much better than Kobe at everything except shooting. Passing, Defense, rebounds. Better leader and teammate. 2 inches taller way faster/stronger. Kobe became injury prone in his later years while Lebron is as healthy as ever. Want me to keep going?
michael rappaport was crying and on suicide watch when the knicks drafted porzingis but yea all of us are the reason for the "skinny jeanification" of sports
Jacques Webster that dude shot 43% as a Big man that's like a guard shooting 33% lmfao he not even top 50 player all time just a defender back in the day
Hey Colin or whoever puts this up, I got a stat I wanna know. out of the 1,250ish games played in the NBA season, how many of those are decided by 5 points or less?
Yo tell me this dude ain't Brian Scalabrine's illegitimate brother
^^^^Example of people getting offended over stupid ish
FYI TodD's an expert on thin (I'm guessing transparent) skinned stupidity
Scal came from a po-dunk pig chasing town in Washington
Rapaport is the Translucent Mamba.
MegaJeves na brah hes his father😅😅🤣😅😅😮😧😲😃
That skinny jeanification/greatness thing was spot on
Why do people always forget about Kareem. 6 rings, 6 Mvps, 38000 points 19 time all star. Easy 2nd best all time
Kaleb Smith I've always thought this myself.
kareems hook shot was more consistent than lebrons jumper
He also went to finals 10 times. Somehow lebron just passes magic, kobe and duncan who all have 5 rings.
scoop245 Your using team accomplishments for your argument
Kaleb Smith Thats what I'm saying. LeBron is not top 3 All Time.
Don Self from prison break
So excited it came back on again this year
Colin says who cares about the mvp but if lebron was running away with it Colin would be crying tears of joy
SportsGuy17 Mane exactly. every segment would a lebron tribute.
as it should be
It would lebron day
"Skinnyjeanification" is my new favorite word
I like when they have Michael Rapaport on here. He brings good energy and hilarious perspective.
Rappaport gave colin WORK in that debate. wow. this guy should have his own sports show
I thought I would be ANTI-Michael but he was speaking nothing but truth today.
Rapaport owns whereever he goes
He is a comedian. All those comedians will rip you a new one in a heartbeat.
Tom Bystander Haha word
these guys should have a show together. Their banter mixed with their knowledge is super.
I wish it happened before Rapaport went insane haha
Michael cracks me up. They need to have this guy on the show more often.
The Bill Russell section till the end had me dying haha, he's got a point though, in todays game players have the privilege of basketball being their life full stop.
totally agree. You have to dislike your opponents because its what gives you the fire to win and want to beat them.
This guy is beyond hysterical and very very right. Can't fault his logic
This was a great interview.
Rappaport nailed it.
I don't really agree with Michael Rapaport, but I like his talk. Guy's so energetic, so entertaining. Love it. Not agree with him, but love his style. =D Anyone with me?
4:25 "Let me defend Lebron on this..." Geez Colin, you NEVER defend Lebron on anything. Nice change of pace for you to stand up for him....
Finally some honesty about the early greats of the NBA
Was with him till he brought up united. You should care another person was beaten and dragged because he refused to give up the service he paid for. That's something worth being offended by.
I will go with you Kristine even though i'm in the Netherlands
Love this Rappaport guy.
cast away is still one of my favorite movies i can watch it again again and it never gets old
i'm glad he said what he said about the era bill russell played in. nobody who played in that era would be a hall of famer today. he shot 43% as a big man. the year robertson averaged a triple double was when only 2 teams in each conference didn't make the playoffs...and robertson's team was one of those teams. chamberlain was the only one who could've been good in this era and even then he wouldn't get 100 points against today's centers, or block 20 shots against the guys in the league now. the nba was like a ymca league at the time.
Wilt would still be great today though with his strenght and rebounding,easiliy the best C in today's game.
it's hard to say that. he was a freak of nature, but his stats are inflated because of the way the game was played back then and the competition he faced. in his time it wasn't uncommon for players to average over 15 rebounds a game
DeAndre Jordan has like 13 rpg now and Westbrook has 10. Wilt would have way more lol.
+Rudy Cooper why is that? just because he was a better scorer than deandre doesn''t mean he would be a better rebounder. he wouldn't grab 50 rebounds in a game going up against deandre jordan.
He would get like 20 every other game. And he was way taller and more athletic,stronger than DJordan.
Valid point about Bill Russell and Oscar Robertson I never thought of it like that
Get em Mike!
Michael Rapaport is easily one of my favorite people to listen to.
Michael rapaport is a legend
We talk about who's the MVP so much b/c the regular season is boring af. It's also the same reason why people talk about the random, unnecessary drama off court more than the actual games.
"Who cares about mvp" really colin? Really? Colin your show would be dead if westbrook wasnt mentioned in your show everyday
Alpha G his show would not be dead lol
Colin had another video today which is all about how they had to make false stories in a boring regular season. He hates that the MVP race is the #1 story. It's a joke.
Oh please. Millions tune into this guy.
Oprah Side has more viewers than Colin aka delusional hater!
Tod Wilkinson it still doesn't mean a lot it's just that the NBA ratings are down and it's boring.
Give this man his own podcast!
Bro Rapaport had me dying laughing but he can't disrespect Bill Russell like that. He'd be good in today's time. Not as dominant but he's still be great at rebounding and defense
Allan Upton he'd probably be on Deandre Jordan's level maybe a bit worse actually
sorry to break it to ya, but even coach red said if he had a choice he'd build a team off wilt rather than bill.
not really, weightlifting is fairly new in NBA except for a few exceptions, bill would of got bigger if he played today, magic only benched 135 when he retired, when he wanted to come back he got his bench to 300 so he ain't get manhandled on the court
According to Colin, Lebron left MIA because championships resided in CLE. His argument works when Lebron left CLE but it falls completely apart when he returned to CLE.
"New York treats the celebs the best!"
- didn’t age well with the Knicks did it 🤣
I like what Mike said about hating greatness. All this criticism for Bron, while folks giving these other "superstars" pass after pass every season for not accomplishing nothing. Just shows folks don't give a damn about the other guys unless Bron in the convo. Kyrie was in Cleveland four years not a soul cared or talked about him. Love was a double double machine in Minny and couldn't sneak in the 8th seed once. They play with Bron all of a sudden they so great now.
Michael Rapaport is a national treasure 😂
Criticizing Westbrook for shooting 42% is like criticizing LeBron for shooting 40% in the 2015 NBA finals, despite being the reason why the series was 6 games long. Westbrook HAS to be play like this for them to win.
disgusting that you excused what united airlines did
SA is the only difference between the EC and WC? Who are the best teams in the league? It's GSW, SA, HOU, CLE, LAC. So....the east has ONE team in the top 5....so...the west is over rated? His adoration for LBJ is so unconditional, he even resorts to dismiss the disparity between to WC and EC to hide the fact that LBJ is hiding in the east.
Michael Rapaport is just salty LeBron isn't in New York
Mike M Well, yeah kinda said that when he said he hated Bird and Jordan.
I disagree my friend... I think he's giving his honest opinion that he is being paid to give on this show
no, he is still offended LeBron didn´t sign his son an autograph his own explanation
Mike M no Michael speaks facts u salty lebron fan boys just can’t handle the truth
If he really wants to rant about something in sports.Let,s rant about how defenses, are defanged and clawed in the Godell Football League.The Jim Burt hit was when defense was still allowed to get after people, star quarterbacks were just another guy on the field.
This dude argues about Lebron leaving Cleveland... Then returning to Cleveland lmao.
Colin got owned by a comedian!!!! It's the rapapport's show!
Damn I was watching the Portland vs spurs game yesterday...could've sworn I seen ppl rested...but I guess it's jus a lebron thing
When Lebrick when back to Cleveland Michael predicted and said he was going to leave Cleveland again and Colin was like "nah, he's here to stay can't leave them again" and now he's like "yeah, he should leave". LMAO
Rapaport is hilarious lol
rappaport slaying me uncle maury lolol
Did this man just 25 year old KID? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
GAHHH Colin and michael are THE TRUTH
Do you agree with Rapaport's take on LeBron?
Colin Cowherd it's a manager of the UA-cam channel
Two media clowns talking about a man who has played in 6 consecutive Nba finals like he is a chump,Lebron walked the walk. I hated Lebron when he left for Miami ,I thought it was a weak move BUT he came back, thats all that matters. He gave his city life again AND won a championship .Aside from being the best player in the league for consecutive years,the guy created thousands of jobs and opportunities in his city. Also Lebron stands up for social issues SOMETHING JORDAN HAS NEVER DONE BECAUSE HE WAS AFRAID IT WOULD HURT HIS POCKET.

YES!
Colin Cowherd How is lebron better then kobe when kobe is 5/7 , him beating 3 first ballot hall of famers with a broken finger is more impressive then beating the warriors in the finals.
Prez Bryant u sound stupid af....that's last yr comeback nvr been done in history....and Kobe got 5 rings 2 MVP finals ...which he got that last 2 finals ..so the first 3 shows he was no alpha
Colin shows his true character with his United Airlines comment. Disappointed in his character but not surprised. Usually this isn't a simple mistake but a glimpse inside the real person.
what Boston created the big 3 not miami-_-
edwin ramirez but the heat took it to another level with 3 of the top ten best players of the time joining forces
big 4 really. rondo was great under doc
Ray Singh
D Wade and Chris Bosh are top 10 of all time?
Ray Singh D-Wayne is not top 10. Bosh ain't even top 200.
edwin ramirez The Lakers did tbh. Everyone forgets all the time Magic, James Worthy, and Kareem were a big three. Then the Celtics(parish, bird, McHale), and bulls(Jordan, pippen, and rodman).
Yo when he start taking about Bill Russell 😂😂😂... Yo I love this guy, he's too funny
Michael Rapaport should have his own sports talkshow
Michael Rapaport was in Next Friday. Show him some respect
Damn, lost some respect for Colin when he justified the united incident, that was not okay
Lemar Junior
Colin is a right-wing hack.
thats why he can't keep a marriage together.
lib tards salty af
So you lose respect for others who don't think like you. Check!
Lemar Junior I lost respect for you cuz you voted for trump ... sounds dumb right
Strongly agree with Mike about Bill Russell
Then you know nothing about basketball lmao. Look up Wilt Chamberlain archive on Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell's competition. He destroys this clown Rappaport.
Does rapaport have a show. I like him
IAmRapaport stereo podcast show available on itunes and wherever you get your podcasts
Should we just get rid of free agency? Because we need to stop pretending free agency is okay and then slamming players for actually exercising their free agency.
Colin you need to buy pon pons for Lebron...
FINALLY somebody comes in and tells it like it is about Lebron.
Talk about Klay Thompson resting last night and Steph Curry getting exposed lying about an injury but really resting on Saturday vs. the Pelicans .
But the media doesn't talk about that
NBAbram Ahhh, that was KD second game back. Just calm down, they will be just fine.
Ricardo Olivarez I didn't say there's a problem with it. But people only talk about it when the Cavs rest and ignore when others do it
NBAbram well the difference between the Cavs resting and Warriors resting is one of the teams clinched 1st and Home court. While the other lost first because they rested.
NBAbram Lavs lied about their injuries last night because they knew they'd lose regardless if their starters were playing against the Heat.
Brian Cheng Warriors lied about KD still being injured and unable to play to give him more "rest"
Colin says Westbrook REALLY cares about the MVP? Everytime he gets asked about the race or the award he either doesn't answer the question or says he doesn't care and that winning championships is his main goal. Harden was the one that went out and said "I thought wins matter." Seems like Harden cares.
That guy looks like mike korzembas dad
Rappaport is funny as hell😂😂😂
Kobe scored 81 points
sean24833 Wilt scored 100 , what's the point?
voibits was that a pun
sean24833 Booker scored 71 at age 21
Let's judge Kobe's entire career by one game...
70 at age 20 to be precise
Michael can hold his own in any situation, he'll tell you as his a professional so don't even try to mess with Mike.
why it didn't bother him when Kobe was getting crucified
Rappaport dropping knowledge
Rapaport is the most irritating personal Colin has had on his show...
L
Why? Because he Speaks the truth?!
W
ROUBA79 facts
Rob Parker is by 8 country miles
Colin "Who cares about MVP?" Hates on Westbrook every single day to try to discredit him and diminish his MVP case.
LeBron not better than kareeem big men get no love
Tod Wilkinson yeah but lebron IS top ten for me he's def better than David Robinson. But I could def hear arguments for Shaq Kareem and hakeem. Only problem with Hakeem and Shaq is longevity. Lebron already has them beat in sustained sucesss but he doesn't have Kareem beat. Kareem also was like undefeated in highschool won 3 NCAA championships woulda been 4 but freshman had to play jv and NCAA banned dunking because of him creating the skyhook
Tod Wilkinson Shaqs last 20 ppg season was at 33. Lebrons been avg 28 ppg since he was 19 basically
Tod Wilkinson bruh lebron literally avg at least 25 ppg since his 2nd NBA season. And he's in his 14th year...
Tod Wilkinson Shaq has 14 seasons of 20 ppg so lebron will easily have him beat and actually just passed him in NBA points in 5 less seasons....
Tod Wilkinson the fact lebron came outta highschool helps his longevity case. He came in earlier so has more seasons to be great
Love Rapport about bill Russell ... thank u about the evolution ... he is real ...
Lol this guy is a clown. He already got exposed by multiple people on youtube about his low IQ takes on the Bill Russell era. Sheep
okc getting swept in the first round by the rockets.
Preston Riedler
Nope it's going 7. Rockets aren't a Great team they just had a great Seasons
Rockets 4-3 over Thunder
reallife935 the rockets are an amazing matchup against the Thunder. It will be over in 5
D Stud Disagreement the Rockets aren't a great team just had a great Season
Rockets 4-3 over Thunder
Then Rockets get they teeth kicked in by Spurs or Warriors
Rockets never get far in the playoffs
Rockets was in the western conference finals 2 years ago. What are u talking about?
100% right about the United situation
Lebron is top 5.. he's the best small Foward ever
Tod Wilkinson lol if pippen is better then LeBron than he would be in the discussion for top ten of all time. which he's not...
Tod Wilkinson Lebron is greatest small forward ever period
Tod Wilkinson Lebron is a small forward
greatest small forward of all time is Larry Bird by a large margin
Tod Wilkinson you're on drugs to say pippen was a better point forward you should be institutionalised
Colin is such a LeBron Stan that it physically hurts me.
No Lebron is not greater than Jordan. Geez.
jthyn44 Jordan ain't winning no ring in this era. not no Patrick Ewing and role players today
what are you talking about
Ballin Too Jordan would dominate every era
jthyn44 Jordan ain't even better than Bill Russell
NBA Off The Court Jordan was too young at the time. He had a terrible team and there were like 3 or 4 all time teams playing in that period.
Dear The Herd:
"Michael Rappaport would have Bill Russell #1 if those 11 Boston Celtic NBA Titles were in
New York"
* in the words if Michael Rapaport:
"I'm into rings & things"
Rapaport is the man! Lollllll
No. The cut off should be from 1980 - present when comparing athletes from the NBA. The league was more integrated with talent and more competitive.
Nobody beat MJ in the finals... NOBODY!!! LBJ fans hate that 😂😂
FreshMoney forreal. lebron's great, but ppl act like he's never been beaten in the finals. Shannon sharpe said on his show, "You'd bet against him???" Uh, yea. If you bet against him every year in the finals, you'd have won more than you lost! 3-4
+Cmore Butts Lol facts
How many times did he not make the finals?
1-9 before getting pippen?
+Philip Chevrette Nice try Lebron fan. We talking FINALS! The big boy series. U know like when Lebron lost to Dirk. 😂😂😂
mike needs to come on more often
Lol "If" San Antonio was in the East? How dumb is that argument?
Right about the season mvp. Its a team sport, and winning as a team is what matters.
kobe beat most 50 win playoff teams in best of 7. even more than jodan. kobe played in the hardest era of all. so many more good teams.

J idk about all of that he beat dwight howard in the finals one year, AI alone another year & jason kidd and some role players for another ring. Not exactly stifling competition there
this guy is hysterical! stop taking everything rapaport say seriously people! he's not serious! well not 100% anyways
what about lebrons first 2 years in the league missing the playoffs, then got swept in the finals in 07, then lost in the playoffs every year after that before going to miami and joining a super team in his prime while being called king and best player in the world?? stop acting like that didnt happen. then still lost with that super team his first year in miami in the finals. while getting out played by a 35 year old role player in the nba finals. lebron only averaged 17 per game. yes he been to 6 straight finals , but he didnt win all 6. he is 3-4 in the finals it took him 14 seasons to win 3 rings. stop acting like that didnt happen. by jordans 13th year he was 6-0 in the finals. after getting dismantled by the spurs lebron ran back home and made another super team in cleveland orchestrating a kevin love trade and joining Kyrie irving. lets face it Lebron is a FRAUD. a great player, just not as good as the media makes him out to be. he's not a top 10 all time player but he is a top 20 but thats it.
craig smith so you expected a 22-year-old with that trash roster to beat a dynasty spurs team name me one player in history to do that and please don't tell me jordan because he was 1for9 by himself
craig smith im happy he went back to Cleveland because with wade always hurt and bosh not playing at a high level anymore they would continue to lose and lebron would have carried that team and still catch the blame just like when he lost to the gsw in 2015 even though he led both teams in points assist and rebounds and Jordan's 6-0 is overrated because unlike Jordan lebron faced teams with way more talent
Not going to lie, Rapaport knows his basketball and is extremely entertraining.
Tom Brady is not better then Joe Montana, I would say he is in the same discussion for best QB of all time.
mangmans yep he is better case close bro see ya
mangmans
I'm a Brady hater but I have to tell the truth
Brady is a better QB then Montana.
Brady 5 Rings and 4 Superbowl MVP's and 7 Superbowl Appearances
Montana 4 Rings and 3 Superbowl MVP's and 4 Superbowl Appearances
. . .Pooh you don't think I knew that? did you also forget that Montana never threw a interception in a SB? It's my personal opinion, for brady to pass Montana he needs another SB Win to cover up for his 2 losses & interceptions.
To even be mentioned in the same breath as Montana is a compliment, not that Brady even cares what you and I think.
mangmans Tom Brady is better than Joe Montana don't play yourself.
Thulsa Doom Brady is
Math is hard Colin and Mike "LBJ has been there more than Kobe", ahhhh Kobe 5-2=7, LBJ 3-4=7 Cmon man do your research you guys are suppose to know sports.
no. 4 finals losses, in what way is he better than Kobe. no clutch gene. needed tons of superstars. c'mon Man. it's never been a debate
Kobe got carried for 3 (and he needed referee help in 2002 and 2010 vs Boston), is selfish, is massively overrated in the "clutch gene" department, and drove away stars that would have allowed his teams to win more.
Kobe is great, but he's not a top-10 player of all time (not even a top 3 laker). Lebron is AT LEAST top 5 all time.
Lebron is a better defensive player, has carried his teams to the finals without great Centers, is a willing passer, and is far more capable of being clutch both offensively and defensively when the chips are all on the line

reallife935 lol
reallife935 where is your source cuz a lot is questionable🤷🏾♂️
Keziah Newton Alot of what is questionable all you have to do it go to Basketball Reference and look up all of this
I love Kobe, but stop. Lebron is so much better than Kobe at everything except shooting. Passing, Defense, rebounds. Better leader and teammate. 2 inches taller way faster/stronger. Kobe became injury prone in his later years while Lebron is as healthy as ever. Want me to keep going?
love this guy he owns sports hard core ...he makes good points about the game and Labron
michael rappaport was crying and on suicide watch when the knicks drafted porzingis but yea all of us are the reason for the "skinny jeanification" of sports
Big fan of "RAPAPORT".

I love rapaport dudes hilarious
bill russell most overrated player ever
Jacques Webster that dude shot 43% as a Big man that's like a guard shooting 33% lmfao he not even top 50 player all time just a defender back in the day
Jacques Webster He is better than Michelle Jordbum
Jesus christ smh
S Amogh Bill Russell would be a less athletic DeAndre Jordan today son
dont disrespect the man pls. he wasnt the best offensively but the man's defense and leadership led to a shitload of titles
Hey Colin or whoever puts this up, I got a stat I wanna know. out of the 1,250ish games played in the NBA season, how many of those are decided by 5 points or less?
