Agree bro, KD gets criticized for not winning a ring, so the man goes to Golden state, say everything he accomplished doesn't matter, then goes to Brooklyn, they wonder why he left Curry. Man is trying to build his legacy and prove he is the best.
@@floatinrocktubetalk3768 as if it aint on boths sides? The media dont give a f they put out bad press on lebron and bash him for shit too. He just never responds so it doesnt blow up as much aa when they do it other superstars
I’m glad y’all point out that Stephen A is the one making that narrative cuz he’s literally the only one that thinks that. Even I don’t even be thinking about it that hard😂
Then you're not thinking enough because the topic came pretty early in the season when I saw warriors' success. He is not wrong when saying people will naturally be guided to this train of thought especially after the hype the nets got.
@@dabilaroali1037 no I mean like I feel like he brings it up all the time to where like that’s all he thinks about. Like it’s a good point don’t get me wrong but man it’s like he’s got that thought permanent in his head
@@emoney2k754 I don't watch ESPN that much to estimate that. However considering he considers KD the best player in the world I would not be surprised if that's stuck in his head more than it should.
@@emoney2k754 Idk he has been consistent about that for years now. To the point where like they said he tends to dismiss the greatnesss of other players not named LeBron ( especially Giannis ).
@Hunter Zolomon I'm mean shit, if ESPN offered me $10m a year to talk out my ass I'd do the same. It just sucks that a lot of people look to him to real basketball analysis while there's 100 other people better
I mean he has had relationships with many greats before this era.. behind the scenes they may look up to him as a guy who knows how these greats won in the nba
The whole "Our team hasn't been healthy" narrative literally doesn't make sense to me, every team in the league got someone with a broken leg or covid nowadays
Ngl everyone is gonna remember him lying to Westbrook, blowing a 3-1 lead and leaving to join the team he lost to before anything else outside of being a 7 foot scorer
The narrative has changed on Westbrook, so KD is "forgiven" for leaving cuz of how Westbrook got exposed as a inefficient all around player afterwards.
I do kinda agree in terms of in 10 years people might say he shoulda stayed for another year or two, but the hypocrisy when HE was the dude saying "he the most bus rider superstar" like bruh...
What’s ironic is sas was right not entirely but I have heard people say that kd is a dummy for leaving the warriors cuz remember this video is pre-playoffs so he didn’t get swept by the Celtics yet
Lol Stephen A has like 20 American players in his top 5 MVP candidates list. Also Blake Griffin was starting last night in a lineup where he should be the best player. He only scored 6 points. Worse yet, Nash's starting lineup scored as many points combined (21) as Jevon Carter. 4 bench players scored double-digits while none of the starters did. Griffin is clearly washed, Nash is questionable as a coach & now that this team isn't riding the coattails of KD's greatness, they are being exposed.
I hate this argument because the same people who say KD made a mistake for leaving the Warriors, are the same people who got butthurt that he signed there in the first place.
I agree with Sage a win is a win is so stupid in other scenarios. im 100% sure we're getting bounce out in the first round or probably in the play in if the lakers are winning like this. in 2020 before the nba suspended for covid we were blowing teams out and beating top seeded teams comfortably.
I love how they’re saying no one says this ab KD when swishout literally made a video on how he made the wrong decision 😂 and he’s bigger than the both of them
Stephen A loves what if’s, what could be, and all that. He props up these maybe stories rather than give due credit and the proper attention to the nows and who’s making noise in the league NOW
If KD ain’t top 3 y’all must not watch any game that Twitter doesn’t talk about . KD is only debatable with LeBron and Giannis outside of that it’s not there
First put Stephen A aside, Malika Andrews introduced the Nets' struggles so well there even if I was ogling her with the other half of my brain. I'll actually agree with Stephen A...If Curry and GS win another ring and KD doesn't his 2 rings will naturally mean less in the grand scheme of things.
If Bron is better what's going on with the Lakers? I remember when he was carrying bum ass teams to 1 seeds. Jokic is doing a better impression of that this year!! Honestly y'all both dishonest out here the best players in the world are the MVP candidates so it is close.
@@ClemintineCake I don't think Bron's the best in the league. Ur reason for KD being better is based off the Lakers struggles when his team is also struggling. KD's run in last years playoffs with Lebron being injured would've been a reason that makes sense to me. I don't think either are the best but I do think Lebron is better
Kids who grew up with Lebron have a hard time accepting the reality that he's not the best anymore. Give them some time. They'll learn when they get older.
Ehhhhh what I will say is that KD's rings have never been given much clout. The narrative has really been that a ring in Brooklyn would be his "real" ring. That's not his only legacy, but that's a narrative that has existed for a while now
the only criticism i would have of kd in all time arguments (like splitting hairs type of shit) is that if he doesnt win in brooklyn/whatever other team he may go to, then he has never been a guy to be the leader in the lockeroom and establish a winning culture in route to a championship and to me, thats going to be the difference in putting him above a guy like steph or below him but again this is when talking about who are literally the greatest players of all time which kd without question deserves to be in those conversations
Is it not possible that the Nets could be tanking right now? Sure they wouldn't want to lose 9 straight games, but in the playoffs they'll be able to start and end the series with Kyrie, so in the end a losing streak like this wouldn't be a big deal in hindsight, so this could be beneficial for them
I just look at it like I look at Bron choosing Westbrook. They in that midlife crisis point if they career. Same with Kobe thinking he needed a guard like Nash or Paul. Maybe him and Paul are nasty but maybe Paul’s game is worse next to him.
SAS bashing KD for goin to GS and then bashin him for leavin is a perfect summation of basketball discourse now.
Agree bro, KD gets criticized for not winning a ring, so the man goes to Golden state, say everything he accomplished doesn't matter, then goes to Brooklyn, they wonder why he left Curry. Man is trying to build his legacy and prove he is the best.
Don’t forget that you allowed to be a complete hypocrite if you are defending Lebron.

thats crazy
I’d put my money on the warriors over the nets lol
Great watching sage hang on malikas every word

Don’t remember him lying to Westbrook either.

😂😂 I’m just happy no one is hyping up the garbage nets
o you mean the 2016 season when the warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the cavs and lost; then asked KD to help them beat LBJ

Hold up did this dude really say only beating the Cavs by 2 points isn’t a good thing? Have u watched them this year they good as hell
The Lakers were talked about like a near super team before the season started and the cavs were a lottery team
@@staciemohler4624 that’s was then and this is now
My thoughts as well
They casuals
He’s still referring to it as lakers fans turning up after a win no matter how they got there or badly they performed.
Shanae was spitting on that Nets take. Nothing she said didn’t make sense. She was right 100%
But Russell Westbrook averaged a triple double…
What that mean
Wanda Durant must got some dirt on Stephen a 😂😂😂
Arguing with somebody’s mama will never go in your favor gotta just take that it’s a lose lose no matter what, especially a black mama lol
solz sayin love u babe killed me
Love that the two lady's know more about basketball than stephen A
One actually plays ball

Good point that if kd goes to the knicks instead of the nets SAS would be doing nothing but praising him .

Look at Malika having the job Molly wish she could have 😂
Queen number2?
This colorism is shameful
Chip favorites to 1st round sweep oh how the turn tables
it’s REFRESHING to see female reporters who actually contributed to the conversation and don’t just yell *cough* MOLLY *cough*
This shows how much casuals bet
Yea Kyrie can’t even play half the games lol.
I wouldn't care about the Media I would just drop a 50 piece
I never thought KD as a dude that left Curry for Kyrie the dude just made a narrative on his own bruh
at this point i’m convinced the nba pays top media and analysts to stir up these narratives cause there’s no way he actually believes the shit he says
Malika need her own show
mama durant with the W press
Bolz looks like picachu 🤣
How could KD leave The Warriors? Doesn't he know that Steph's offense is his defense?!

Forget the Nets WESTBROOK AVERAGED A TRIPLE DOUBLE LAST YEAR!!
Wtf was he supposed to say he’s the bad guy no matter what
Again... Kevin Durant can't win for losing.😂😂😂
KD left when his Achilles blew out. He needed to take a whole year+ off. How the fuck is Screaming A trying to make that into 'he left Steph'?
He CHOSE to go Brooklyn rather than sign an extension with GS
He was leaving regardless of that. Anybody who doesn't feel appreciated going to leave. Hell I'm amazed he didn't leave a year earlier
SAS better chill on KD before his mom has to put him back in check
Lady in blue looking like a 2k22 autogenerated person.
