Its funny how the JJ/LBJ podcast starts with "This is just basketball, no narratives" and here we have Stephen A talking about a nonsense narrative
It's all he knows. He's a clown
There's no way in hell LeBron is doing this without pushing a narrative! He wants to push his goat status narrative down our throats..
@@elmehdinafia1237he doesn’t give a shit. He knows he’s the best player he doesn’t need others to say it too. He also hasn’t said anything in the podcast to even hint at that. You’re delusional and insecure that your childhood wasn’t as good as you remember
@@elmehdinafia1237 did you watch it ?
@@TsoDrag yeah
These old guys in sports media that make a living off hot takes, sensationalism, and narratives with no real knowledge of the game are insecure because they know that people don’t care about them anymore. Mark Cuban already exposed the fact that Skip doesn’t know the game years ago
Skip "Too Much Pressure" Bayless lmao
Yeah SAS always inserting himself into everything, no one cares.
So we gotta listen to yall young mfs talking like school girls about one person all day?
@@strifefresh3998bro you literally joined the conversation 😂
@@IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIxv so what my old azz joined the conversation. I rather listen to my age of the media than a bunch of young clowns constantly saying no Diddy while taking about sports
so SAS basically saying Listen to JJ but dont listen to JJ? what a clown
SAS been a clown, SAS is constantly always trying to create this narrative that Lebron is trying to create his own narrative. Lebron is literally just talking basketball on the show. SAS literally wants people to listen to his own personal interpretation of anything Lebron does, over actually just listening to or watching Lebron and having your own interpretation. SAS is a completely unnecessary middle-man. I don't like or need his biased commentary. And that whole list positive non-relating things SAS says about Lebron, before getting to the negative stuff he really wanted say that whole time instead, just shows corny and fake SAS is fr. You know a person is a true snake🐍, when they can find a way to make a mockery out positive things a person has done or does on a routine basis smh.
@@gamechanger114 SPIT. Idk how any person finds him even entertaining at this point. Cause he was certainly never good
He will change his mind a few times too.
Listen to JJ but he gon be lying so don't trust what he saying.
Stephen A smith was spot on. They’re changing the narrative to fit lebrons legacy. The said the heat wasn’t a super team and that lebron needed more help. This is a clear attempt to gloss over his failures. If the heat wasn’t a super team than it makes the loss not as bad, if we make up the narrative that he needed more help than it makes the loss not as bad. This is clear PROPAGANDA. Lebron choked in multiple 4th quarters and was the 5th leading scoring behind Jason fucking Terry off the bench in that series. They had more than enough help if lebron would have avg at least 25 they could have won that series. This is a joke and if you can’t see this your clearly blind
Stephen A says Bron's doing it this way to protect himself from criticism. Episode 3 they bring up the 2011 finals, and LeBron quickly says, "I played like sh*t and it cost us the series." So much for Stephen A's theories.
Basically SAS is saying only the media gets to make narratives about bron.
Exactly lol
It’s even worse, he’s saying the only way to talk about basketball is to largely talk about narratives, and that only him and his people can do that
The media that half of the contributors are signed to Klutch sports. Lol ok
This is off topic but the fact that SAS said he has Brunson Anthony Edwards Tatum above Luka in the MVP and he has a vote is actually outrageous
SAS always has a racist agenda
This idiot said "he is the 5th seed" to justify Brunson above Luka, when Dallas has a better record than the Knicks ...
SAS is a sports casual in general. That’s why the UFC clowned him and kicked his ass outta their sport 😂
He can't give credit to a white guy,joker gets the same treatment
@@Ineedrentmoney Fair enough but when was the last time a player averaged 34, 9 and 10?
I love how Stephen A. creates these scenarios and narratives, but then proceeds to say, "Not that I'm saying that's what's happening." Bruh, that's exactly what you're trying to say. You just pretend you're not.
😂😂😂😂😂 he be so see through with it man
thats a coward talkin
Stephen A will go on a monologue projecting the nost insane things on athletes then end it acting like he isn't doing exactly that. Love players building their own podcasts and media.
Super sad it shows Sas is just a 🤡
Lebron is in year 21, no podcast is going to change how his legacy is viewed.
That part
It could for people who haven’t been alive to see his career play out. This podcast could allow him to direct the narrative for younger generations after he retires.
@@parkermudsen1063 his legacy isn't dependant on a mfs age😂
That's not what a legacy even means.
@@kammyr4082 legacy is about how one will be remembered by their contemporaries as well as the following generations.
@@kammyr4082nah cuz if he wanted he could change peoples views on certain subjects, like his rings for example
The fact that all these media figures talk basketball everyday but probably dont know what a dho is or what icing a screen is insane😭 #WEAREDONEWITHESPN
Facts lol.
The podcast is gonna expose a lot of casuals for not knowing what they talking about 😭
As a casual the little notations JJ added was super helpful. lol
Spoken by the casual him self 😂
You're a casual tho?
@@ThedarkmeatpodcastI can guarantee you had no idea half the shit they were talking about the last two episodes
The podcast is trash.
To be fair to Nick and First things First I think they are arguing their real takes. He’s saying the ratings would hurt when they just all agree on their takes. They agree on a lot of their takes tho, and then debate nuance
Nick is the only one that gives his honest full opinion and reasoning behind it. Sure you sometimes might not agree with it but that doesn’t necessarily make him always wrong just differing opinions. Skip and SAS are the real garbage cans SAS more than Skip tho
@@jumpy2xstreaming Damn really? Can I hear your reasoning on why you like Skip more than SAS? Most of the comments I see are all talking about SAS>Skip. Just curious.
@@Max-ys3xg I just like watching Skip more on his show personally. Nothing against SAS I just have tried to watch him I find him just yelling and screaming about random stuff a lot. Also I think it’s bc I feel SAS focus on things outside of basketball to much and not as much on the game itself. Just my two cents both are great in their own right and have their faults
@@jumpy2xstreaming Ahh got it. Thanks for the analysis. 😀
@@jumpy2xstreamingout of all the people in sports media you can praise…you’re praising Nick Wright?😂. The same mafucka who said LeBron’s 2012-13 season is the greatest season by a player in the history of the game and it’s “not even close”?😂😂
What happened to Playback ? Ya'll work good together
Agent is too busy reacting to Tommy G videos 😂
The Racial Albama Boat Incident Reaction Vid They Eventually Deleted
@@TheRamzinowhat’s happened with that?
Yea same they haven’t posted in months
@@Wnuzeland Coulda Been House episodes 😂
So what SAS basically said, is " the reason LBJ is talking to JJ is because he has hug basketball intelligence, and LBJ doesn't want to have to deal with people who have never played the game or not basketball smart". SAS literally insulted all of his peers in media
STEPHEN A IS RIGHT. In the 3rd episode they tried to say Miami wasn’t a super team and that lebron didn’t have enough help. Even tho NOBODY said the heat wasn’t a super team. They had 3 top 10-15 players. Lebron avg 16ppg behind Jason Terry, bosh, wade, and dirk. Had lebron played to his standards and avg 24 they won that series. They lost cuz bron folded on a stacked team. Now he’s tryin to change the narrative that he didn’t have enough help. A flat out lie. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT STEPHEN A WAS TALING ABOUT
Everybody knows the LBJ is also an incredible mind. I completely disagree with the SAS narrative bc it makes it sound like LeBron isn’t intelligent. Naw. LeBron is just a collaborator. He’s been that since birth, since not having a dad growing up and always wanting to connect. I think SAS should apologize.
@@TheSlickrick269you couldn’t have watched the whole episode
@@PickEmUpMessEmUp oh yes I did. JJ waited til the end to start spewing that bullshit
Skip Bayless became famous for two reasons one at the height of Michael Jordan's reign he was the Nick Wright for Jordan. When that became irrelevant busting Lebron James chops became a Gold Mine for him.
Don’t forget being a Tebow groupie during his Broncos stretch 😂
And now dissing LeBron also became an old boring story so he started criticising Luka and Wemby
Telling the truth about Lebron.
And rightfully so. Had mafuckas crowning that man after he just got locked up by JJ Barea😂😂😂
Thts 🧢 when Jordan was playing the masses didn’t know who Skip was, we knew Ahmad Rashard, not Skip plus, no narratives was made up. Jordan went out on the court and proved it. Skip criticized Jordan a lot in Mj’s playing days. In those times it wasn’t no Superstar blaming and trading roll players, the Superstars got all the blame with that same energy when they get the praise.
Agree with a lot of this, but I have to add context to Nick’s takes.
He’s one of the few people who genuinely speak about Jokic regularly.
First Things First is one of the better shows on television. I think it’s top 2 out from the top 2 networks, imo.
Yea first things first is great, no crazy hot takes and they talk about sports seriously
Nick regularly shits on Jokić
@@student99bgno he doesn’t. He gives Jokic his flowers, he just likes Giannis more
lol Skip making more personnel trades than he accuses Bron of making
I can sense the bitterness lol
SAS thinks the world revolves around him 😂
Well, that video aged like milk quick 🤣 I don't know if you saw the last episode of the pod. But Stephen A was right afterall 😅
Shit tragic, new patic
Funny comin from Stephen A since 50% of his career has been protecting Jordan’s career
he uses mj to have talking points to give him credibility.
He's on mj payroll no doubt
Jordan doesn’t need protecting. Dude is 6-0 in the finals, 6 Finals, MVP’s, 10x 1st team NBA, DPOY, etc. He’s the GOAT and anyone who watched both him and the new era can easily see the difference
@@Romanus-that doesn't make him the goat there are others with better resumes. And what does all that mean? So what he won 6 but look at that era and how bad teams really were. Look at how gets talked about the expansion and look at the guys even Rodman saying the league was weak because of the adding of teams that wasn't ready to win and most teams having lack of stars. I'm taking 6'9 bigger stronger faster, whos better at driving, finishing, finishing after contact, distributing, better range, more versatile etc.
I don't care what a guy did in their era. I'm looking at competition, skill, teams, and where they guy is. And if we really break it down when it comes to body type, overall athleticism mini speed strength and size, ability to orchestrate, ability to score, ability to be placed anywhere on the court on both sides of the ball, overall efficiency, overall value to a team which is VORP, individual records, Brown is a better all-around player playing in a much more skilled and competitive league with far better teams than what was back in the 90s
You ask people to go watch, then I encourage people to actually go back and watch 90s games on UA-cam, and not 90s games where it was their best games ever cuz you can do that with any era just go watch random games and you'll see the difference in errors you'll see the skillset you'll see the speed the quickness the size of these athletes and how they can do so much more now than they could then you can look at the bench of the 90s players versus the benches of today it's not close. And when people understand that they are actually really see the difference
@@Romanus- No old head we have all the footage now easily available, jordan good but Lebron is his evolution and successor
LOL AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW! LESS THAN 21 HOURS AFTER THIS VIDEO DROPPED, lebron and JJ redick are now on their podcast claiming the Miami heat was not a super team 💀😂😂😂 LMAOOOO but Steven a smith is so wrong right ???? LEBRON is the ONLY ONE without a narrative To push right ? LOLOLOL can’t wait for Steven a smith to end up correct
Actually, he said the first year they weren't a superteam. In context, he said a superteam requires more than just stars but the bench and role players to fit the roles. He said after 2011 loss, they acquired the players and thus (without saying) they became a superteam. But keep on hatin' instead of actually just learning.
@@ahjuxue2121 first of all, 2011 heat WASa Superteam, 2nd of all LEBUM never said “we WERE a Superteam after 2011” he never admitted that. Get your head out of your ass dummy
Is SAS taking over as the media Bron hater at this point 😭
Alot of networks & ESPN specifically focus on talking points about everything other than the game. Stupid shit that fills up time and has contributed (To its detriment) the not so important factors of the game because its much easier to discuss who has a "Clutch Gene" than to talk actual Basketball/Sports. It's like when Jay Z got involved with the Sports Agency game. It makes people who are of the industry shake because now not only do they have to compete, they have to somehow provide a level of expertise that the players have but cant provide.
These networks are going to spend all of their time chasing behind LeBron & maybe more athletes because the Players are running away with the Marketshare now.
Mind the game podcast is on LeBron uninterrupted media company 🤔
This man had a 8 point game in the finals but wants to say they didn’t have enough pieces to win. NOOOO It’s because the main piece didn’t show up
I don't agree with 90% of what SAS says on any given day but he isn't completely off base here. This is very slick marketing and a great little bridge for when LBJ "actually" leaves the game. He didn't disparage the pod either if anything he's given the boys a compliment.
A backhanded compliment.
Transitioning into life after retiring from the pro scene and what SAS described are two different things. He isn't entirely wrong just because Bron is hyper aware of media impact. Him and his team are calculating, which they should be -- everyone should be to some extent. The crux of his monologue wss just reaching and that's putting it mildly. Although like Low was saying these talking heads have been saying things for entertainment purposes. This was obvious for decades but now they are actually coming out and telling people directly. It's virtually impossible to tell where the entertainer begins or ends with all these guys at this point. Maybe SAS more than anyone else.
Bro u that naive to think that’s complimentary
Most of these so called debate shows are somewhat scripted and aren't often genuine.
Gotta love it when they say they just want to talk about basketball and then later on LeBron saying the 2011 Miami Heat wasn't a super team and that he didn't have any help. So in a way, SAS is right.
People like SAS have ruined the nba, sports in general. Completely corrupted the minds of casual fans to think ring talk is the only thing that matters. Reason why the regular season is bad. You think these owners want to risk their top dollar stars for a regular season game? Only thing that matters now is winning the chip and that narrative is dumb ass hell when that’s the only substance people care about. No love for the game what so ever.
I love the pod bc we never really get to see Lebron be in a more chill environment and actually talk about the game. Great idea and the pod will probably become massive if they keep doing it
You guys are really delusional and just stupid
He has the barber shop. which is chill
And he has had more than an athlete
He's had multiple chill podcasts
Stop lying for LeBron I hate yal smh
Bron did say he played terrible in those finals, & that if he played like he did in the ECF they would’ve won.
Why did he mention the role players then? You can't say i play bad and the roster was bad at the same time.
@@yannickngoran297quite possibly the dumbest thing i’ve ever read… yes you can hold yourself and the team accountable at the same time.
When you clearly underperformed as the leader of the team, you can't mention role players names. Your take is one of the dumbest I've ever heard. Sit down. They are role players for a reason. We expected HIM to perform and not role players. We don't want to hear about no role players. If he just showed up in the 4th quarter, we wouldn't have had this conversation. When he wins, it's James carried the teamz when you lose take the blame and run with that.
@@yannickngoran297funny because the biggest reason the Mavs won that series is because their role players played great. Terry, Barea, Marion, etc, all played out of their minds. LeBron played his worst Finals. The role players also played bad. Y’all have this logic that the superstar is supposed to be the best no matter what. But don’t bring this same energy for Jordan who in the final 3 games of that series against the Sonics was objectively bad but had the others step up. It’s no excuses for how LeBron played. But it’s also insane to act like that series wasn’t defined by the others because it was.
@@owtkvst when you have been overplayed by a role player, you can't say s***. As i said, he just neeeded to showed in the fourth. Thats all. This is not role players fault. When he wins, they said, hz carried everybody, when he loses, he has to take the blame without saying s***. Miami lost not because miami role players didnt showed up , it's because James was AWOL. stop making excuses with that gymnastic.
LeBron literally came to the podcast and said he did plays when he was a kid that even the coaches could not believe he understood. He has plenty of moments when he sucks himself off during the podcast. His legacy will be great so no need for podcast, but the podcast is just to make himself look even better.
Im losing respect for alot of sports analysts. They aren't being honest and just trying to hurt lebrons legacy for mj
lol LeBrons legacy is worse than Tim Duncan’s
Bro if anything y’all tryna say all this bs about mj an excuse lebron 4-6 in the finale
Bro stop it skips show ratings went down cause of Shannon leaving undisputed
@@franklinfisher497no it’s not😂
@@user-eh2zd4lw2mbro most of his finals losses wasn’t even on him.
The NBA more than any other sports league has terrible analysis day in and day out from the fans to the analysts. Much of it is narrative based and the idea of going into detail and talking about the X’s and O’s or using advanced analytics scares the shit outta dudes and it’s weird man 😂
I thought people were over dramatizing how the LL & LBJ podcast was a "fuck you" to traditional sports media, but it seems like they're right
SAS is just salty that Lebron won’t talk to him
Stephen A has spent to much time on Twitter seeing "How will this affect LeBron's Legacy" tweets and it broke him.
SAS is mad these players are speaking for themselves and him and "sources" can no longer create their own narratives and scenarios
This aged badly, Lebron literally said the 2011 heat wasn’t enough to win a championship and they weren’t a super team 😭😭, literally trying to create an excuse for his loss and set his own narrative
Lbj is literally protecting his legacy by acting like the Miami heat weren’t a super team in 2011 that is ridiculous. I’m not saying he made it for that reason but it is literally what lebron wants. Lebron Stan’s will defend his team hoping ways and act like lebron is perfect when the only player who ever came close to perfection was Jordan. But even Jordan wasn’t perfect.
if the 2011 heat was a super team then jordan had a super team
@@starn9 yeah his name was Jordan 😂Dude, seriously, when discussing super teams, it’s about who else is on the team. Lbj had two top-ten players around him at the time, and he literally chocked with a super team. Stop with all the nonsense you ignoramuses spout.
You need to make this a longer video on your main channel, because i do not think that this conversation is only worth a 15 minute video. That's to me the conversation that has never been had, which is why the regular season and all star weekend is watered down. 2016 was the last year all that stuff felt genuine.
For so long Stephen A, and Skip dictated narratives/legacy talk and not the talent of players, now everythign has suffered because players adopted the mindset "the only thing that matters is the playoffs" and you see it, with the massive ramp up from playoff intensity to regular season games overall.
It's why guys like Charles Barkley are and will forever be more celebrated than Russell Westbrook, when they have had similar careers.
Did 2016 free agency lead to a change in that mindset?
If not that, then what would you say did so?
@fortynights1513 I think that was the final domino that fell when KD made that decision, media literacy fell off of a cliff.
Stephen A and Skip were the catalysts to players making decisions such as that, so for them to turn around and skewer KD for that move is beyond hypocritical.
It is a never ending cycle between the two, star moves, criticism for ring chasing, star doesn't move, criticism for not winning at all or enough
There's never a right answer
The mf said Truculent to diss him with a backward compliment
I learned so much from bron as one of if not the smartest player just talking basketball because I am tired of the stupid narrative now you actually got to know what you talking about to get clicks instead of just saying dumb stupid takes
This is kind of reminding me of a conversation I had where I said one of the most depressing things about social media was once I started talking to teachers as an adult, the mask was lifted and I was forced to realize that a lot of teachers just really aren't that impressive of people. I always had placed teachers on such a high pedestal.
Yeah, most are just regular people whose parents had money, not very smart or bright, have good memories, don't like their job...
Low you are not understanding Stephen A’s point.
He's not saying the podcast won't cover largely basketball
He's saying LBJ will try sneak in some narrative points to try and boost his Goat case
He just did by saying the Heat ‘didn't have enough pieces’ his first year. If this isn't a attempt to downplay his failures, I don't know what is. Wade had already won a championship at this point, LBJ wanted Spo fired (according to Pat Riley, Lebron needs to hold that L.
But just as Stephen A predicted he’s already trying to downplay his failures
Hit it right on the head with this response. And that is exactly what is happening. LeBron and JJ Really are trying to reframe what a "Super team" is on Episode 3. It is laughable at this point.
You people didn’t really watch the episode did you? Lebron literally said that they lost because it was a new team and he admitted to playing like ass, please instead of skimming through it would help you to listen to the piece of media you are critiquing
@@filipjanak8313 no you don't understand our point. The power of propaganda is that it comes with some truth.
I know Lebron admitted he played bad. That is beside the point. He stated the roster didn't have the complimentary pieces, yet they got to the finals and he played bad.
If they didn't get to the finals, maybe he can say that.
If they got to the finals and he played good maybe he can say that.
But they got to the finals and he played badly. It doesn't matter that he admitted he played bad, to bring up the team first undermines that and also shows either lack of accountability or delusion.
I can watch more of the video and know he admitted to playing bad, while also see that him saying the team lacked pieces is bs. Both can be true.
@@truthnotfeelings The fact that he brought up that they did not have complimentary pieces does not undermine the fact that he admitted to playing bad, it would do that if he didn’t admit it but he did, therefore he put the blame on himself, “yeah we didn’t have the best chemistry at the beggining but I played like shit” is a summary of what he said also please just please stop using words that you do not know the meaning of or are absolutely blown out of proportion, you do not know first thing of what a propaganda is, let me educate you, propaganda wouldn’t be a throw away line in middle of a podcast but main focus of it, if you said it was subliminal messaging sure you would still be wrong but hey at least closer in this case it’s called an opinion, please you cannot be that delusional to think that putting out an opinion on something on a throw away line on a podcast is propaganda, please at least google for example what war propaganda looked like before spouting words you do not understand
No he made the podcast to keep telling people that he has the highest basketball IQ.
Joker's IQ is discernably higher.
@@QuestionEverything562That's cap.
And thays not even true. 1 on 1 maybe but not as a team player. Lebron isnt seeing plays before they happen, he's able to make plays happen, but he's not jokic or bird's level
@@bboywolf Doc Rivers went on record and said that was impressed of Lebron's capacity to predict the plays he drew on time-outs during his Boston Celtics' days.
If you want to say he's not as gifted in that respect as whoever, fine, there're arguments to be made there, but he can most definitely predict plays and situations
@@duskry6426 thats due to him studying plays ahead of time or having experienced them before, not an inherent intelligence. Bird and Jokic are reading the game 2 or 3 steps ahead with or without doing anything. Of course their exp matters and they both have studied, but it's an organic natural born way their brain is wired. Lebron has a great mind for remembering and acting on it. He's not predicting 2 or 3 plays ahead
Okay, so 1st off, youre absolutely wrong. 2nd, I hate when I agree with Stephen A.
Lebron has been chasing this GOAT thing for ages, and having his personal Klutch client medua members like Shannon and Nick... he's been releasing the stories of his genius, like predicting plays to opponents etc... but why did Stephen say this now? Doesnt Bron already have that barbershop show? "that's when i knew i was the GOAT". Hes doing this mid season because fans in the masses have realized that the Lakers not only have the highest freethrow disparity in the league, but its higher than the 2nd, 3rd and 4th teans combined. The refs have always been giving him phantom fouls, ignoring his fouls and travels, but its being seen now. There are people doing the stuff like Angry old hoops fan that show the tape... hes framing his genius thing, especially since the Lakees have a crazy record against good teams when hes not playing and AD is and we remember that Bron was on his "heard a pop" vacation when D Lo, Rui and Beasley made them qualify for the playoffs last year.
U wrote a whole lot of nothing…it’s crazy how yall watched that podcast and u think Lebron started it bc of free throw disparity or the lakers record without Lebron😭it’s also funny how yall think Lebron would salty that the lakers have a winning record without him…I’m sure the oldest player in the league is happy his team can win games without him
Nah, you can't read the truth right under your nose. Probably because your nose is too far up LeBron's bum hole. He made very valid and true points. The Lakers' free throws over the last two years combined is 700+ more free throws than the second place Knicks in that same time span. Go watch the games, Austin Reaves gets the most blatant tick tack calls I have seen since Harden. He does not deserve that much respect.
LEBRON ALREADY THE GOAT
@@jps0583 You wrote a whole lot of Bron brown nosing.
@@QuestionEverything562 I wrote like 3 sentences…if that too much for u then u in trouble buddy…and u made another long comment on this vid hating on bron…so keeps trying buddy
JJ who actually knows what the nail is and SOB is side out of bounds: ❌️❌️❌️❌️
Random media person who constantly drags your name through the dirt for clout: ✅️✅️✅️🤑🤑🤑🤑✅️✅️✅️
It's nice to see the shift from entertainment focused media to information focused media. Not saying information can't be entertaining but when it's focused around only trying to entertain no one is gonna learn anything about the sport.
Is it too outlandish to assume they just decided to do a podcast, just because? These guys do genuinely have “fuck it let’s make a podcast” money so I mean 🤷♂️. Take lebrons name out of it for a second, an old man who has literally done nothing but basketball his entire life is now getting to the point where he won’t be able to play it much longer but still wants to talk about it. True he could’ve done it for marketing and this that and the third but like it really could just not be that deep.
Love your breakdowns LOW but their podcast hundred percent is driven by an underline goal here. There was numerous times that he spoke of himself as superior and better then his peers or most. You don’t talk down on others unless you’re trying to make a point. It’s not always about basketball with that guy.
Low suck lebalco james toes
How do you claim LeBron isn't trying to control the narrative, when he clearly said "it wasn't enough," once again absolving himself from all blame for that horrific loss in 2011. Bron saying that also diminishes Wade and Bosh.
3:27 I almost choked on my food of laughter when LOW called SAS’s video “the saddest thing piece of media”
so did mj make the documentary to protect his? did he give the greenlight after 2016? idk idk
Yes he did. He even says that in the documentary.
Isn’t ESPN and SAS is a Lebron propaganda machine
They don’t care about LeBron, they care about the numbers talking about LeBron brings
@@dwilliams380They literally hire former Bron teammates, former Cavs reporters, Bron fans like Shannon, and JJ "I love dem Bron nutz" Reddick all in order to praise Bron.
@@QuestionEverything562 I’m not gonna argue with you, tbh, your beliefs are your own.
@@dwilliams380 That's not true. What did I say was not factually correct? Brian Windhorst was a pro LeBron Cleveland based sports writer, Dave McMenamin (Wrote a book about Bron). ESPN has hired Kendrick Perkins (Former Bron teammate, Ryan Hollins (Insane Bron stan), Damon Jones (Former Bron teammate), Richard Jefferson (Former Bron teammate), and JJ Reddick who believes Bron is the GOAT. Where is just the self-opinion here? Wake up young man.
@@QuestionEverything562 Theres multiple ways to interpret those hires. However, please refer to the only sentence I’ve written, directly addressing you. I’m 30, If I’m a “young man” to you, you’re too old to be whining about ESPN and LeBron on the internet. This isn’t important or interesting enough for me to reply to you beyond this point.
The thing people have to realize.... NBA players are super multi millionaires.... Give them a sponsored podcast, how can they lose?
Meanwhile, people like Nick Wright, Colin Cowherd, Even Stephen and Skip, they've never had no hundred million dollar contracts. They're on a TV Network where they actually have to compete WITHIN the network to not get cancelled AND compete with other networks. If they don't get ratings, they'll get cancelled and possibly even shelved as personalities. So with TV, there's more at stake and getting ratings is PARAMOUNT.
So yea, the points about disingenuous conversations and entertainment may be true but I'm not about to villainize them for it because that's the game that HAS to be played for ratings.
If JJ Reddick and LeBron only get 300k views in a month and they are at a loss for profit, who gives af, they not doing it for money. It's purely passion and they're both rich af, they can't be cancelled and they can't lose.
Lot of x and o warriors out here thinking that because they know the name of the plays that they're somehow speaking gospel. No amount of xs and os knowledge can change reality 😂😂😂 you cant use xs and os to explain away a choke job
The Lebron hate is starting to get really old and annoying

Hate? He brings it on himself. No one would say anything about Lebron if he was humble and truthful about his career. He wants ppl who watched all era of MJ to kobe to him to conceed and say he’s the greatest of all time and he’s not. That why he’s tries so hard to control the narrative
@@1god2savem34 No he doesn’t
Y’all old heads hate everything he does
He pass to an open teammate
He’s a coward
He plays more ball dominant
Then he’s taking shots from other players
Lebron haters are some of the most ignorant fans
Just like at people like Skap Attack
He will not credit Lebron for anything
He even said that him breaking Kareem’s record was “insignificant” and no one cares
@@Takingyoutojail Uncut Hoops is pretty bad, too. Both those guys make every second video about how much LeBron sucks. It's an easy way to bait clicks from both LeBron haters and lovers and I'm sure that's why they do it.
@@1god2savem34he does try to control his own narrative way too much. He says things about himself he wishes others would say about him. For a guy of his talent, he doesn’t need to do any of that stuff. He could let his game speak for itself. So it baffles me sometime.
This podcast was not made for me but i just like hearing them talk about things they love
Unless you're a fanboy, it's pretty obvious what the intent is lol.
Replace the n with a g
@@bboywolf Guys like Lebron and Perkins on ESPN can't even conjugate verbs correctly.
Lebron has always been an attention whore and this is another way for him to market himself.
It is amazing that both Labron and Jokic who are passing first players keep on leading their teams in scoring and labron case iOS the all time , yes that great
It’s interesting, I think new media definitely spells the death of old media for sure, but I also think it will inevitably become its own issue at some point way down the road.
Similar to how streaming services took out the rental spaces, like blockbuster, Redbox, and even cable for the most part. Now every company basically has their own streaming services so if you pay for all of them, it’s almost the same thing as having cable which is becoming a low key problem.
Basically, the same will happen with new media, with everyone just about everyone has a podcast, everyone is spinning their own narratives, there’ll be so much chatter either people will basically tune out or just pick their own lane.
So what was you saying about the pod cast bro? Dude bron didn’t have help in 2011 and you think it’s gonna be about facts. And not spinning. I thought you were about facts. Not being biased.
Traditional sports journalists hate the idea of sports coming straight from the source. Why would we listen to Stephen A when we can listen to Bron?😂😂😂
at 0:39, did he say “MOVING IN A DIFFERENT ERECTION”⁉️🤔🤣😂😅
Anything Lebron does is 💯 for Lebron.
Fr... It really isn't that complicated
Absolutely wrong
Obviously you all are biased and delusional. Stephen A is Absolutely right. LeBron already trying to change the narrative about 2011...like SAS said , it won't work. You choked. There is no excuse. You choked and got out played by role players and journeymen. You were up 2-1 and you choked. We saw it with our own eyes.
You guys disrespect the 2011 mavs way too much.
This is why u shouldn’t listen to Steph a smith. LeBron literally admits he play like shit and also give dirk credit. You can easily go watch it and listen to yourself but you won’t do it because it won’t fits your narrative.
You're delusional by thinking Stephen A is incorrect.
They claimed it was mainly about X's & O's, but ended up discussing who's the most influential basketball player. He also previously claimed that he would've been the same player without the Heat or Coach Spo, but then turns around & credits Coach Spo talking to Chip Kelly to learn the Spread Offense so they could win? Even if Spo went to Kelly, why would he need to go to a guy who never even won a Natty to learn an offense from an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SPORT, when teams where already running variations of the "Spread Offense" in the NBA? Mike Brown had them move the ball and clear the paint in Cleveland, which is why Big Z was a valuable contributor to that team's success. He played the same role Bosh did in CLE.
Interestingly enough, I also haven't heard them discuss defense much either. LeBron-led teams almost have never have overly complicated offensive sets & he could've used that opportunity to show how much he improved defensively from 2011 to 2012-2013. He outright failed on many defensive assignments in that series too, it wasn't about the paint being too clogged. Wade already discussed how he needed to study film from players like Jordan to play more off ball to win. What sacrifices did LeBron make to his game, since he's had this genius level basketball IQ since age 8? Why couldn't he figure out what to do in 2011 & they needed help from a football coach? What?!
LeBron just said he played like shit in ‘11 Finals. Just look at the matchups back then and tell me that Miami is deeper than the Mavs’ roster that time. Outside of Bosh, Bron and Wade, they’re old and slow.
How many cuts are in this vid? Like im tryna learn if the cuts make the vid better or if just doing the vid straight is worth it..
I kinda get where SAS coming from honestly
People mad when Steven an addresses the elephant in the room. It’s no different than when lebron brought up that “bag talk” shit LOL as soon as he said that shit I knew that HE KNEW he was only doing that shit knowing it was going to get clipped. Lebron is the most CALCULATED, FEMININE, MANIPULATIVE person in sports media 😂 and yall mad at Steven A for addressing the OBVIOUS ?? 😭😂😂😂😂😂 okay then. Answer THIS!! In GOOD media, you sit down with people who disagree with you, to keep it Interesting. Why did lebron choose JJ? Is it MAYBE because there will be ZERO pushback WHEN lebron starts talking that “I’m the goat” bullshit ? TELL me yall aren’t this fucking stupid. PLEASE?
You actually sound like the stupid one here tbh.
😂😂😂😂LEBRON HATER TALKING LIKE THEY KNOW HIM PERSONALLY. YA SUCH LOSER IT SAD
I'm so glad you touched on this topic. I feel like Skip has been the leader of the pack when it comes to the "Lebron doesn't have a clutch gene" narrative. 20 years of watching Lebron having great clutch moments and this fool has been able to spew that narrative. The debate format in sports media is a joke and I'm glad folks are finally calling them out.
To be fair to Skip, he was right. LeBron was really not that clutch in his first 8 seasons. It all came to a melting point in 2011. Skip looked genius at that point. Since then, LeBron has proven he is pretty clutch at buzzer beater shots in the playoffs. But Skip was right at the beginning. LeBrick was a legit thing.
Scoring 25 straight against Detroit isn’t clutch 🤡
@@aswanwilliam That's one whole game. Where was the clutchness in the 07' Finals?
@@QuestionEverything562 one of the top playoff performances ever. Plus he got many more if you watch basketball. F@ckin 🤡
@@aswanwilliam Top French playoff performances? You mean Tony Parker? Lol two of the four games went to the wire and LeBron couldn't shoot. Bruce Bowen locked him down. Bron shot 35% FG% for the whole finals while avg like 5 TOs a game. That's a pathetic performance. Unclutch as it gets. Why wasn't Bron defending Tony Parker by the way? I thought he could guard 1-5.... lol guess not. Please learn NBA basketball history, you clueless casual 🤡
Soon as Shannon left, undisputed has been a joke
He left them for good ?
Forever is a long time. It's possible they get Shannon back but that would cost a whoooollllee lot of money and Skip would have to set his ego aside. Chances are pretty damn slim on both counts. Fox is looking at this dazed right now wondering how it would have been better to cater to Sharpe or outright go with him over Bayless. Skip had some good tv for people who go for shock value bs but even that got old ... finally.
@@moustaphamoussabouh9985 yes
@@stevenleblanc8146 in desperation
My first thought when I say someone like Paul George start a podcast was that it was over for all these journalists. When players and coaches who actually played start do talk shows, they’ll dominate everything. Getting access to to Superstar players and their perpective is WAY better than listening to some journalist that never played
It’s not 20 plus years ago, info is readily available at the drop of a dime. This is the wave of media now and the older heads can’t let it go 🤷🏽♂️
It's called detail by kobe its been done before
Only with less condescending about how dumb other players are. Jordan also had fundamental breakdown videos of his moves made to educate, not boost himself.
things being done before doesn’t mean it can be done again and better lol
@CMXR lebron is no where near the player kobe was calm down he is trying to cover up his drug use lebalco
But Kobe is gone now, and people miss that style of sports talk
You sound like a hater. This is a podcast. Not the same thing as what Kobe did. They’re talking about THEIR experiences and THEY interpret the games they played. How about you actually watch instead of hating.
Stephen A statement aged like fine wine😂. I think you owe him an apology
lebron word for word said he played like shit in the 2011 finals , so his statement is actually aging like milk . But obviously u didnt watch the podcast before commenting on it
@@starn9 you bringing up one point of all the episodes he's made so far? I stand corrected.
@@g0414 yeah its the point that disproves your one point 😂
Low having a KD shirt on is so confusing
bro said LeBron doesn't have an ulterior motive. LMAO
And on episode 3 "Year one in Miami wasn't a super team" - LeBron [Paraphrase for the record]. Seems like Stephen A was right more than he was wrong
In the same episode he said “I played like shit and it cost us the series” 🤦🏾♂️
It wasn’t… It was a big 3. At the time, it was definitely seen as a super team, but the Warriors redefined what a super team really is. Sure, they had a good starting 5, but Their bench consisted of a WAY past his prime Ray Allen, a past his prime Rashard Lewis, and a past his prime Shane Battier
By that logic, the ‘08 Celtics were a super team. The 2016 Cavs were a super team. The 2018 Cavs were a super team. The Kyrie Celtics were a super team. The 2020, 2021 and 2022 lakers were super teams. The big 3 nets were a super team.
I can keep going…
@@TOlp-oe3fp Quite a few issues with your response. You contradict yourself in your second sentence. "At the time, it was definitely seen as a super team" . Thats it. You can't sit there and play revisionist history and then compare it to what happened after it. At the time they formed and came together you yourself can admit it was seen as a super team. Why? Because you had 3 players under 30 who were all all-stars coming together.
Also, that "WAY past his prime Ray Allen" single handedly saved LeBron's legacy. I'd argue Spoelstra's too. B/c had he not made that shot in the corner they were going to make wholesale changes in that off season after failing to win a ring twice with that roster.
The difference between the '08 Celtics and the Heatles is the fact that Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, and KG were past their prime. They weren't washed up vets I'm not saying that. But they weren't entering their prime like LeBron (Still in his 20s), Wade (Still In His 20s), and Bosh (Still In his 20s).
These arbitrary examples you provide at the end lack context. You are simply stating 3 superstars on one team automatically equates to a super team. That isn't the only criteria and i think you know that which is why you are throwing them out there in jest.
@jenius_jr You did NOT cook ANYTHING with those paragraphs
1. Once again, by the logic of “3 all stars = super team”, the 2016 cavs were a super team. The 2021 Nets were a super team. The 2021 Bucks were a super team. I can keep going.
2. Ok? You do realize this just supports my point, right? If they were such a super team, why did they rely on a 37 to hit arguably the most clutch shot in nba history. Also, hit one shot. You’re talking like he put in an all time performance. He had 9 points that game 1-3 from 3.
3. Ok. I have a bunch of other examples. Once again, the 2016 Cavs. Love and Lebron were in the same age range as D Wade, and Kyrie was 23.
4. Then what are the only requirements? You literally said yourself that it’s because they had 3 all stars. I don’t comprehend this. That’s clearly your only criteria, since you didn’t despite the fact that the Heat bench was all washed
I listened to the Bron n jj pod and was INSTANTLY smarter 5 sec in
He ain’t lying tho
Lebron absolutely is doing that. 😂😂😂😂
Where did Jokic find the time after high school in small town in Serbia 🇷🇸 to play Water polo and soccer where he is elite dribbler and Basketball while racing horses on the weekends
Its not delusional, he literally said that AI and curry were more influential to basketball than Jordan, the guy who almost every single NBA player has a logo of on their shoe 🤡 i dont hate the podcast, i watched the first episode but not the second. I found it to be a little ridiculous because they act like they are talking about high level basketball when they were talking about the most basic ass plays.
Cap
He literaly did not say that he said other than jordan Ai and curry are most influential. You guys are hating so hard you cant even process what is being said.
What the fuck did Jordan do for basketball other than be popular because everyone else was fucking shit. He didn’t change anything. Selling shoes isn’t influencing the game. At most he accelerated the game getting popular which was already happening because of bird and magic. Stop being delusional and defending your daddy. He’s a grown man and doesn’t need you to cry
THEY ARE MORE INFLUENTIAL😅😅
@coreythomas3633 So stop making MJ brand number 1 make Bron brand number 1 don't the younger generation run the culture 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Not skip having career lows from the field….
He had a pretty high peak
When its comes to the media, were done with the 90's
So when are we getting an update on the podcast, because there’s a whole lot of sweet little lies going on
LeBron probably chose JJ because he’s probably knowledgeable enough to read schemes and defenses along being able to talk about it in a way that a casual could understand. I don’t see many former nba guys in the media who could actually breakdown tape in a way that is easy to understand. The only other guy I’ve honestly seen that could explain basketball stuff is Kenny smith (and he does a good job during those half time reports). Shaq and chuck know the game but they aren’t very good at explaining and most other non nba sport analysts either aren’t knowledge enough to explain it or they prefer to talk about a narrative instead of what actually happened.
I don’t think that steven a is too far off. Lebron definitely has a motive
What motive?
@@matthewford3778LeBron wants to be the best nba player ever, it gives him a chance to make himself look better thats all
He is literally only talking about basketball
@@matthewford3778 To talk basketball with JJ. That's his only motive.😂 I swear nobody was saying this stuff when Kobe made "The Detail".
Have you even watched an episode or clip? He’s barely spoke about himself and the only time he did it was after JJ asked him about the Clippers comeback. All they talk about is different schemes and coverages and their opinions on it. How is there some hidden motive in that?
1:41 did this nga just jiggle
They just throwing spaghetti on the wall at Undisputed. 😂
If Lebron is so smart how has he been playing baskeball for 20 years professionally and still can't make free throws.
You'd think with unlimited resources and being a BASKETBALL GENIUS DERRR JJ he'd have solved shooting at the level of most JV high school players.
So did he miss every single free throw?
Yeah this a troll. Thats like criticizing jordan for not being a good 3 point shooter even tho be played 15 seasons
Tell me your a casual without telling me your a casual
by the way most of the responses to what I've posted are fake.
@@4daguys Jordan took like 1-1.5 threes a game for his whole career. He was average at best in his time. LeBron was once 78% from the ftw line, how come he hasn't ever gotten back up there?
In England if a sports broadcaster ever said “ talking about the champions isn’t good for ratings” we would be soooo confused 😂
How Did Low see the Likes and Dislikes???????
And yet LeBron is saying Curry is more influential than MJ, the Heat didn’t have enough to win, etc. He’s trying to control the narrative LIL BRO. I mean “BIG” bro. Please sdfu you calorie magnet
“Control the narrative” you guys can’t be serious, I would say curry is definitely more influential to the game itself, he the reason for the playstyle nowadays. As far as the 2011 heat though… you guys need to go look at that roster while also giving respect to dirk and the mavs because they weren’t gonna lose that year . As Lebron admitted he played terrible that year and there’s no excuses , but you guys seriously need to check that roster out. It was hideous and was not championship level at all.
LeBron 100% made a podcast to further showcase himself as superior because nobody outside of his cult thinks he’s better than Jordan or even Kobe and that hurts his ego bad😂. Plus I find it funny that the person he decides to have a podcast with is one of his biggest meat riders in the media who doesn’t like to hold current players accountable and loves to trash the past generation of NBA players who made the NBA a success to begin with😂
You wrote all that nonsense, then liked your own post. That's sad..
This man tried to blame the lack of "complimentary role players" for losing in 2011?
What? The role players didn't have anything to do with LeBron allowing JJ Terry to go off & him going completely a-wall.
And Coach Spo needed to go learn an offense from Chip Kelly because LeBron's lack of ability to play without 4-5 man out? What happened to his genius level IQ? Lmao
I think we found your 2nd like 😆🤡
@@atlien1988 lmafoooo. This is what this podcast is for…to rewrite history and make LeBron look good😂😂😂
I think what SA means is JJ will protect LBJ on other platforms, might be way off tho
Also to help add on low there channels like Hoops Venue and Thinking Basketball that actually break down the footage as these players are having a hot streak!
I mean I have learned so much about the game and I don’t even know if they’ve ever coached before !
James show is an embarrassment.
One of the most obvious propaganda attempts of all time.
"UH YEAH JJ YA SEE I KNEW THE PLAYS. NOT EVERYONE KNOW DA PLAYS."
JJ nods. "Yes, yes, brilliant."
From an analytics standpoint James and the teams he's on are kind of dumb dumb level.
They don't get great shots. And if you look at wins per dollar spent they're not effecient financially either.
The guy making this video just screaming is part of the overall stupidity of the situation.
Nike calls the shots. ESPN and the NBA go along.
From there....everyone falls in line.
Soooooooo you’re not gonna watch it huh?? Lol
How tf is it an embarrassment when several people enjoy the show? When hes doing it with one of the biggest podcast channels of all time? And thats not all he does the "uh yeah jj i knew the plays". Theyre simply talking about ball, thats literally what the podcast was advertised to do. Wtf do you want them to talk about, narratives?? Wtf is win per dollar spent??? Winning what ??? Man youre just yapping bro.
@@donaldf9055 It's an embarrassment because it's not honest. It's obviously a marketing angle to try to make people think Lebron is something more than a media creation.
It's a way to trick people who don't know basketball.
JJ doesn't push back ever and go "Lebron, you're an idiot."
-- payroll dollars per win is what you couldn't figure out btw.
@@donaldf9055 just look at how many fake responses there are in these threads about Lebron. Any Nike or Klutch client gets the PR package. It's goofy and too obvious.
No one is buying it.
Think for one second about how dumb it is trying to sell James as a basketball genius. The guy can't even figure out how to run an offense or even make his free throws.
@@jgallagher1359 Lebron's an idiot for saying what????? So you're telling me that content is only legit if there's a disagreement???? So you can't just talk about basketball anymore???? Bro you're thinking too deep into shii, stop it bro.
