Matt Sans Lebron did betrayed his hometown, but what people need to understand is that the front office failed to being talent for lebron during his first 7 years in cleveland
Brandon Shields That's not trashing Cleveland. That's being happy about Miami. He never continuously trashed his former teammates in Cleveland. Durant is always taking shots. I'd die if Westbrook had everybody on the team shake every GS players hand after the game and they all leave Durant hanging 😂
Crayvd that was a legendary performances. there were times they were down 10 trying to stay in the game then Klay would hit another 3 to keep it down to single digits.
mrcooldeadly85 makes sense but if thats the case why go to Golden State with Curry who's star power is clearly greater then durants as opposed to "equal" like he said with Westbrook
really? Max literally argued today that he can change his pick in a world series on a game by game basis and still be credible. Plus SAS tries to be entertaining sometimes at the cost of making good points, but that is why people love him especially when he gets fired up and goes on rant. In fact thats why people loved Skip also because he would sometimes take some non-nonsensical positions but he would be entertaining while doing it. No one can argue that Max is entertaining ever.
Bro they never treated him as the leader in OKC? Everyone's Faith wasn't on KD, their faith was on Russ? And it kind of bothered him even if he had a better season? They gave all the love to rust instead of KD? So I wouldn't blame him if he had left the team.
But Shannon is an idiot and I don't know why people take him seriously as an analyst cuz he ain't he just is a LeBron's religious follower who would eat even sh*t to keep Bron look good meanwhile making idiotic biased comments about other players
The Sports Guy Westbrook is selfish. Only passes when he can't get the bucket himself when he gets double teamed (bc no one can stay in front of him 1on1)... There's a difference between being forced to pass and not being selfish.
+Andres Rico if you can make the show, shoot.. That idiotic to pass when you have a shot.. He could just shoot even when double teamed and doesn't have a shot.. Thank you. That would be selfish. Smh.
if he didn't have something to balance his turnover ratio and his FG% he wouldn't be on Okc right now. But his inflated APG overshadows his playstyle and makes people think he's a true PG when he's truly just a selfish scorer. He didn't get into the league by being a PG you know...
The Sports Guy KD wants to be Leron. If Thunder would have beaten GSW, he would still have to face LeBron. He'd rather face him with Curry, Clay, and Green!
Skip seems way more subdued compared to how he was on First Take. I like Steven A. but the way he interrupts gets annoying. I think Skip has learned what not to do.
Man, I really love Max on first take, he is very insightful and unbiased, but SAS ruins it for me. This show is much better with more substance over flash.
This Russel and KD thing is just like when Shaq left to Miami and Kobe was putting 50points per night on a regular basis, but Shaq won the championship. Westbrook is gonna have monster games but to no result and KD is gonna be a champion. Im not taking anybodies side cause I'm not a fan of either team, but it's just a very similar situation basketball wise
Donald Trump For President the real finals were the western conference finals not the actual finals where LA dominated. Kobe outperformed Shaq when the competitiom was tougher FACTS (insert any modern day rappers voice here)
Of course a centre will have a higher field goal pct than a 2 guard. Kobe won 2 without Shaq Shaq won 1 without kobe End of argument. Even Shaq said Kobe is the best since MJ. Not sure if some1 by ur youtube name is a troll or an idiot.
Connie B spurs going to the finals they have 2 llegit point guards. kawhi is the best 2way player in the league and gasol & aldridge put enough pressure on okc/warriors. if you think the thunder bigs are a problem for the warriors then the spurs bigs are a nightmare matchup
Shannon's right. KD looks mad petty still talking about OKC like he wants Russell 'n'em to beg him to stay or cry that he's gone. Move on KD...OKC has.
Chris W The TEAM absolutely has moved on. Now the fans is a different story but Russell don't care about that cupcake KD no more. Don't let the fans gas up the notion that OKC is still reeling from KD leaving. They'll be fine. Warriors better hope that chemistry is aight
myREACTIONS. he posted a picture of a cupcake the day that he found out that kd left. he did this because kevin durant did not talk to him. he had to find out through the media
+Kigoz4Life Curry led the trash team to a chip. GSW didn't have top 5 pick for soooo long, and they didn't sign any stars. Curry, Klay and Green improved and they won a chip. LBJ is the guy. He couldn't be like Curry or Jordan, so he left his team to go to an already contender team...
jesus Curry played on the most stacked team in the NBA. GS management did a WAY better job then the Cavs of building talent. If Curry was drafted to the Cavs they probably would not have even made the playoffs
Fraudulent Durant keeps being a 2 face. in okc he was saying Westbrook was his family and he had a bond with him. keeps taking shots at westy and casuals keep making durant out to be the victim.and blaming westy Sir HBarnes would never turn his back on his friends he has the jordan blood Next MVP
Aidan Watson i watch the league where educated people wrote about how barnes is the next Jordan when he was in NC, barnes has the winning formula, now plz learn the game
It's not that simple they couldn't have 3 guys who needed the ball in their hands 30 percent of the time lol two is enough but 3? And harden was the third nest player on that team
Jean Micheal that statement is some what true. Harden actually spoke up and said he didn't mind being the sixth man and taking a pay cut. And right when they got their team together and went to the finals management didn't want them to bond and they traded him. Harden.
ROFLMAO. No, he'll be either the first or second option. Have you watched them play at all in the preseason? Klay and Green aren't getting shots over him.
OKC was up 3-1 against GSW... Blew the lead and lost. Then KD joined them in a month. Westbrook found out about it just like us. Let that sink in... Just let that sink in
I watched the video where Kevin Durant won the MVP trophy back in 2014 and listened to what he said about Russell Westbrook, so for him to say those things now is mind boggling.
I think Durant was right and he was telling the truth. They lost Harden. Then they lost Ibaka. They got rid of one iso dominant coach and replaced him with another iso dominant coach. OKC just couldn’t seem to get pointed in the right direction
Yes. Cavaliers barely beaten the Warriors. With Kevin Durant added, the Warriors record will be even better. I hope they don't win though because I can't stand them. As a Kings fan you may see why.
Shannon is speaking facts. I also agree with Skip. What's interesting though is that he's essentially pointing out that Westbrook basically took control and put himself in the position of the leader, whereas Durant pretty much just expected to be put in that position.
You don't have to be best friends to win. MJ and Rodman hated one another; but on that court they locked in so they could win. KD is just a guy that needs to feel love, like a family atmosphere. If that isn't around, he isn't comfortable I don't think. Add to the fact Westbrook was the leader of OKC, regardless of KD being the best on the team. But no matter what the issue, KD just needs to be quiet or tell the entire truth and wrap it up.
Yeah he needs to be truthful, stop all this wishy/washy talk... I didn't hang out with Russell on road trips, then 'he my brother and I love him' WE CAN TELL KD after before and after Nov 3rd's game against OKC. That love was so clear!!! Oh and JReel... RW has really been the OKC's MVP.
Theresa Smith He said they weren't "Trying" to win now. Which is reflected by them investing in young talent like Olidipo, Sabonis, Payne, Kanter, Adams,.. Etc. They were building a group that would've been Very good right now but not great until a year or two later
Clement Omoregie he's feeding his family doing what he loves and is the best at it....he made the decision that was best for him...how is he not a real man??
KD was never happy about the way OKC played..You just couldn't say it out loud when you were still with the team. Though he was the best player on that team..Russell Westbrook often took more shots than KD. Westbrook was more of a scorer than a facilitator and that was why OKC was never able to get it done combined with mediocre coaching. With Westbrook running the offense, OKC was so limited and predictable and KD was forced to play in a kinda iso-ball offense like the Cavs. I genuinely think KD made the right choice to go to GSW because of how they play and share the basketball. Most basketball players would love to play in that environment. It was just a little unfortunate that they were also the team that beat you a year ago..but that wasn't a big deal in the long run.
Finally the one person who gets what this whole KD situation is about. Skip hit the nail on the head. KD felt Westbrook was a ball hog and didn't want to play with him anymore. Simple!
The problem will always be Westbrook to his teammates, he wants to keep the ball, he never seems to be able to trust his teammates. In a sportsteam you can't win when you don't trust them, and can't play eyes closed with them.
My only problem I had with what Shannon said, Is the fact that KD doesn't want to bring it up constantly about why he left and etc. it's just the fact that critiques continuously asked him about it and he responded truthfully.
It was obvious they didn't like each other before shaq left. We were all fooled that KD and Russ had this off the court bond like they were bros until KD left.
our Father King James would have won a ring with westbrook true story, won with young kyrie who isn't the all around player that Westbrook is, Lebron gotta spot 4 you west in the Land father james we're not worthy to watch your greatness.
but, as soft as I though Kevin Love was he was one of the main reasons cavs win game 7 was because of Love, He out played every big man the warriors had.
OKC weren't trying to win now but were 3-1 up and had a close out game at home of the WCF against the 73-9 Warriors where KD went 10-31 from the field, interesting.
Wow I watched this on December 28-17 and Shannon sounds ridiculous saying no free agents will come but we ended up getting pg and melo 😂 still my favorite show tho
KD is clearly trying to get inside of Russ' head with all of these comments. He knows OKC better than anyone so it seems like he is wanting to get the leg up on them right now. I personally love that KD is embracing this villain role and I hope it continues as having a legitimate villain and hated team will actually drive up the ratings.
How is speaking the truth starting drama??? I actually like this kd telling the truth instead of lying about his relationship with Westbrook on his MVP speech
Look KD is just saying and showing stuff differently all the time. Thats y he is a snake, or a cupcake etc. Where's the honesty when u change ur statements all the time
Yes the game been rigged. LeBum did the same thing KD did and no one is talking about that. Not to mention, the league rigged every championship for him.
I'm glad Kevin Durant isn't the perfect teammate or the epitome of sportsmanship. I'm glad he chose jumpshots over practicing his interpersonal skills. People ask him about why he left. He answers the questions.
The reason OKC didn't make it to the finals is because of KD not Westbrook. The one thing that infuriates about KD insuating that Westbrook was too selfish or that he couldn't win a championship with westbrook at point guard is that KD was largely the reason OKC gave up their 3-1 lead to the warriors, Russ played great and deffered shots to KD in cruchtime but KD consistently chucked bad shots and shot them out of the game.
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T actually Westbrook hit two game winners and averaged a double double against the warriors! But I don't expect someone with the name steph curry the goat to see that! Lol steph curry a goat, what an idiot!
avokadisimo21 how can you say that, Jordan had a tough time playing against the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons. Chicago didn't have any real talent besides Jordan
Lebron never trashed Cleveland when in Miami he was a man about it.
THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING THANK YOU
Matt Sans Lebron did betrayed his hometown, but what people need to understand is that the front office failed to being talent for lebron during his first 7 years in cleveland
Matt Sans not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4
He left them ON NATIONAL TV😑
Brandon Shields That's not trashing Cleveland. That's being happy about Miami. He never continuously trashed his former teammates in Cleveland. Durant is always taking shots. I'd die if Westbrook had everybody on the team shake every GS players hand after the game and they all leave Durant hanging 😂
If Klay didn't hit 11 threes in game 6 we aren't even having this conversation. #BlameKlay
Crayvd that was a legendary performances. there were times they were down 10 trying to stay in the game then Klay would hit another 3 to keep it down to single digits.
It was Steph Curry when he hit that halfcourt in the regular season. KD on the bench ready to sign a new contract
Or if KD hadn't missed those freethrows or had those turnovers...
@PVC saaaaaaallllltttttyyyyy
Skip was right the whole time about Durant and Westbrook relationship but ppl on ESPN said he was talking non sense even SAS.
mrcooldeadly85 makes sense but if thats the case why go to Golden State with Curry who's star power is clearly greater then durants as opposed to "equal" like he said with Westbrook
melvin harper cus is way more fun to play with a shooters
These days i don't know what SAS does know. He's so insufferable since skip left. Max roasts him daily and dude can't accept reality.
really? Max literally argued today that he can change his pick in a world series on a game by game basis and still be credible. Plus SAS tries to be entertaining sometimes at the cost of making good points, but that is why people love him especially when he gets fired up and goes on rant. In fact thats why people loved Skip also because he would sometimes take some non-nonsensical positions but he would be entertaining while doing it. No one can argue that Max is entertaining ever.
Yeah i dont care what people say about Skip whether he is right or wrong he is entertaining, he is good at making people react.
I can remember Durant stating the Kawhi Leonard was a system player after he won Finals MVP in 2014 and now Durant wants to be a system player.
MrDecember91 so trueee!!!!
Real talk
What's a system player?
@@lyricssong7151 Draymond Green, only good in a certain teams(system) because of their play style.
Yeah, they called me a driveway player.
Kevin Durant is in the wrong because he started popping off first and he's blowing up secrets as if Russell Westbrook left him for another team.
DRAKE bro u are the definition a lame
+DRAKE hellnawl lmaoff
Bro they never treated him as the leader in OKC? Everyone's Faith wasn't on KD, their faith was on Russ? And it kind of bothered him even if he had a better season? They gave all the love to rust instead of KD? So I wouldn't blame him if he had left the team.
shannon's suits are always perfect, gotta give the man props
bossstatus911umad I totally agree
bossstatus911umad yeah he always look Sharp
Karl Tanner, the FOOKIN LEGEND He is a very well dressed man.
But Shannon is an idiot and I don't know why people take him seriously as an analyst cuz he ain't he just is a LeBron's religious follower who would eat even sh*t to keep Bron look good meanwhile making idiotic biased comments about other players
In his mvp speech he said he knows Russell would run through a wall for him, this just makes Russell look more loyal and competitive
Loyal and competitive he is! But was he a champion? I think not? Could he carry the thunder on his own to the finals without KD? Of course not
Bottom line is okc was up 3-1 , its KD job to close the deal
aJ Davis not negating from your point but superstar Westbrook was on a turnover spree in game 6 in the final 2 minutes
raymond munoz kd went 0-11 in clutch
aJ Davis why is only kd .but westb keep play hero ball
thanh le if you think about KD was the scorer and better player , but he wasn't the leader so Westbrook did whatever he wanted
aJ Davis nobody is controlling westbrook lol
yall talking about a guy that averaged 10 assist a game. calling him selfish. KD weak minded. westbrook made sure KD got his touches.
The Sports Guy Westbrook is selfish. Only passes when he can't get the bucket himself when he gets double teamed (bc no one can stay in front of him 1on1)... There's a difference between being forced to pass and not being selfish.
+Andres Rico if you can make the show, shoot.. That idiotic to pass when you have a shot.. He could just shoot even when double teamed and doesn't have a shot.. Thank you. That would be selfish. Smh.

The Sports Guy that's an inflated stat bc of their offense
The Sports Guy KD wants to be Leron. If Thunder would have beaten GSW, he would still have to face LeBron. He'd rather face him with Curry, Clay, and Green!

Skip seems way more subdued compared to how he was on First Take. I like Steven A. but the way he interrupts gets annoying. I think Skip has learned what not to do.
+KSU 1989 subdued? What he he supposed to be happy and smiling after this topic? Just talk about the Cowboys and skip loses it :)

😢
Anyone else watching more of this show and less of First Take? Shannon and Skip are more entertaining than SAS and Max.
me
Jonathan rubin I watch them both
Jonathan rubin naw I still prefer first take
Man, I really love Max on first take, he is very insightful and unbiased, but SAS ruins it for me. This show is much better with more substance over flash.
I dont watch either unless for youtube bits but anything espn is garbage so you might be right.
Kevin Durant just the type of dude to come over only when your cooking
I actually believe what Skip is saying. Never thought id see the day.

Jessica Sims Durant petty af.
Jessica Sims Shut up Idiot
I'm really starting to like this show. Shannon really knows his stuff. Better than Max Kellerman at least
Fraudulent Durant keeps being a 2 face. in okc he was saying Westbrook was his family and he had a bond with him. keeps taking shots at westy and casuals keep making durant out to be the victim.and blaming westy
Sir HBarnes would never turn his back on his friends he has the jordan blood
Next MVP
Aidan Watson you sound like you need to learn the game
Tod Wilkinson i'm not making it up, its been reported. articles about it.
typical you take shots at westy just like i said, west misunderstood
Tod Wilkinson someone smart aaayyyeeee
Aidan Watson i watch the league where educated people wrote about how barnes is the next Jordan when he was in NC, barnes has the winning formula, now plz learn the game
Rich Homie RAY RICE #FireDarrell bevell Hahahaha you're a funny kid
i honestly feel russ was treated better in okc because russ was the alpha kevin cant lead never has been able to
LegendaryEA this comment funny now😂
Rian Eagan he wasnt lien tho...kd cant do it on his own ...
Boston George neither can russ but apparently he can't seem to sacrifice to win
Boston George and no one can do it on their own😂 doing it on your own doesn't make the alpha and being able to lead
Rian Eagan you right i wrote something eals...but yea on that note kd cant lead golden state and that team got play for days...
They chose to pay Ibaka over Harden.
It's not that simple they couldn't have 3 guys who needed the ball in their hands 30 percent of the time lol two is enough but 3? And harden was the third nest player on that team
ibaka avearged 3.7 bpg that year no one else on the team had d yet
dumbest move ever
Joe Yo They couldn't afford to keep Wes , Durant and Harden
Jean Micheal that statement is some what true. Harden actually spoke up and said he didn't mind being the sixth man and taking a pay cut. And right when they got their team together and went to the finals management didn't want them to bond and they traded him. Harden.
So the team didn't wanna win now? But they were up 3-1 against the warriors and KD who was supposed to be the leader couldn't finish it off. Smh
Kd is getting annoying af
The Frech Prince well stop paying attention to him
KD bout to go OFF this year
The Frech Prince no the media is. How is kd annoying When all they do is talk about him going to golden state?
Baller 1718 The way y'all keep talking about him, even now after almost a year, is annoying. The media is annoying.
Jon L
But how will this affect Dion Waiters' legacy?
Hold this W.
So kd went from being the second option on the thunder , to being the 4th option on the Warriors
DzoD Nick I'd rather give the ball to klay if curry can't do it
natthan lee he was really the first I watched there games they had so much chemistry KD is just making this stuff up

lol shannon sharp is right doe with westbrook harden ibaka and durant could have been golden state before golden state
But also to a point it is relied apon the stars to have a source of dictatorship in demanding what they would like
Donald Trump is that you? Or maybe Ayesha Curry.........
Hayah7 -.- you a clown. Stay off the web
I loved Shannon's example, "the meal was already made, he just brought his appetite" haha makes so much sense
I think Durant was right and he was telling the truth. They lost Harden. Then they lost Ibaka. They got rid of one iso dominant coach and replaced him with another iso dominant coach. OKC just couldn’t seem to get pointed in the right direction
kd left a team with one ball dominant player and went to a team with 2
Avrami Barasch Not really, the ball moves around a lot more with GS and Westbrook led the Nba in unassisted field goals the last 6 years in a row.
Avrami Barasch
Personally I think Curry is a better off the ball player and Klay is just a spot up shooter with some great defense.
Avrami Barasch -person who doesn't watch them play.
+loving life its preseason buddy. Means nothing
thrashingjustin they move the ball all the time. That's what them and the Spurs are known for.
KD didn't make the bad choice in GS but he giving the most feminine reasons for it

Yes. Cavaliers barely beaten the Warriors. With Kevin Durant added, the Warriors record will be even better.
I hope they don't win though because I can't stand them. As a Kings fan you may see why.
+KoolKid8987 I hope so.
Doubt it. They're gonna need a bench that can score and right now they don't have that
UNDISPUTED ON FS1
NBA Champions = Cavs
2016-2017 MVP = Russell Westbrook
UNDISPUTED ON FS1 Probably not this season. It will take time for everyone to gel. Lamarcus and Paul will feast on Goldenstates front court.
Shannon is speaking facts.
I also agree with Skip. What's interesting though is that he's essentially pointing out that Westbrook basically took control and put himself in the position of the leader, whereas Durant pretty much just expected to be put in that position.
Time flies boy, r.i.p everybody that isn't here to still witness this era
You don't have to be best friends to win. MJ and Rodman hated one another; but on that court they locked in so they could win. KD is just a guy that needs to feel love, like a family atmosphere. If that isn't around, he isn't comfortable I don't think. Add to the fact Westbrook was the leader of OKC, regardless of KD being the best on the team. But no matter what the issue, KD just needs to be quiet or tell the entire truth and wrap it up.

Yeah he needs to be truthful, stop all this wishy/washy talk... I didn't hang out with Russell on road trips, then 'he my brother and I love him' WE CAN TELL KD after before and after Nov 3rd's game against OKC. That love was so clear!!! Oh and JReel... RW has really been the OKC's MVP.

They were a selfish team. He went with the system. Its that simple.

Westbrook was more of a scorer than a facilitator and that was why OKC was never able to get it done combined with mediocre coaching. With Westbrook running the offense, OKC was so limited and predictable and KD was forced to play in a kinda iso-ball offense like the Cavs. I genuinely think KD made the right choice to go to GSW because of how they play and share the basketball. Most basketball players would love to play in that environment. It was just a little unfortunate that they were also the team that beat you a year ago..but that wasn't a big deal in the long run.
OOOWEEEE the ending where shannon talks about KD and how he brings nothing to GSW but his appetite was the PERFECT way to describe the situation.
He obviously feels guilty, that's why he keeps running his mouth trying to justify what he did
Preach Shannon preach this guy knows his facts.
KD needs to hit the gym.. at least do pushups.. he looks like a Salarian..
Harry Harris looks could be deceiving
Frank Camacho Frank Camacho L try again
KwaGod Brown W you owned him
Finally the one person who gets what this whole KD situation is about. Skip hit the nail on the head. KD felt Westbrook was a ball hog and didn't want to play with him anymore. Simple!
they're both great players.. but when they played together you could see there wasn't much chemistry between them
***** no, westbrook and durant didn't collab as much as say, a Jordan, Pippen, A Wade Lebron..
One**
Ricky Moss you're right bro it was like two stars playing their own game disregarding each other
max dore Yep..that's what I'm saying ..it's like these other replys couldn't comprehend that
The problem will always be Westbrook to his teammates, he wants to keep the ball, he never seems to be able to trust his teammates. In a sportsteam you can't win when you don't trust them, and can't play eyes closed with them.
Kevin Durant in there like hey Steph I like what you've done with the place LOL
" west brook is like my little brother " well..
My only problem I had with what Shannon said, Is the fact that KD doesn't want to bring it up constantly about why he left and etc. it's just the fact that critiques continuously asked him about it and he responded truthfully.
I think KD was hating on Russell
That Harden trade was the reason OKC could never win....people seem to forget about that
modern day shaq and penny
Lamar Jackson If Shaq & Penny had been together 9 years they would have gotten it done.
It was obvious they didn't like each other before shaq left. We were all fooled that KD and Russ had this off the court bond like they were bros until KD left.
our Father King James would have won a ring with westbrook true story, won with young kyrie who isn't the all around player that Westbrook is, Lebron gotta spot 4 you west in the Land
father james we're not worthy to watch your greatness.
The LeBron James DickRiding Association ~Dick Station kyrie is much better than westbrick
The LeBron James DickRiding Association ~Dick Station 🙏🏾 Amen
The LeBron James DickRiding Association ~Dick Station Amen 🙏🏿
Frank Camacho what are you talking about?
amen🙏
Tunnel visioned? The man averaged 11 assists a game last year
I can see Westbrook fighting Durant if he shows contact
They should have kept James Hardin, I say that was a win now team
LeBron should've keep Wiggins, not a great GM move.
but, as soft as I though Kevin Love was he was one of the main reasons cavs win game 7 was because of Love, He out played every big man the warriors had.
+Chris B technically he didn't draymond had 32 point 15 re8ounds & 9 assists so I don't think that's true
Big men, Speights and Ezeli he did.
Are you still talking about this still smh get over it. Wiggins is a poor mans demar derozan
+Chris B lolsz I see what you did there, 8ut in today's N8A draymond is considered a 8ig man
OKC weren't trying to win now but were 3-1 up and had a close out game at home of the WCF against the 73-9 Warriors where KD went 10-31 from the field, interesting.
Shannon is an honest man.
Wow I watched this on December 28-17 and Shannon sounds ridiculous saying no free agents will come but we ended up getting pg and melo 😂 still my favorite show tho
he didn't bring no utensils lol Shannon Sharpe is funny
KD is clearly trying to get inside of Russ' head with all of these comments. He knows OKC better than anyone so it seems like he is wanting to get the leg up on them right now. I personally love that KD is embracing this villain role and I hope it continues as having a legitimate villain and hated team will actually drive up the ratings.
"See basket, attack basket" LMFAOOOOOOO
Kd should just say 'I love russ but our styles just didn't work together' and move on
Exactly
Shannon is becoming great at what he does... he has come a long way I'm shocked.
So KD honestly gives the answers to the questions we ask and y'all start hating on him??😒
does Westrook acknowledge the questions like that?
eddie may stirring up drama isn't answering questions.
How is speaking the truth starting drama??? I actually like this kd telling the truth instead of lying about his relationship with Westbrook on his MVP speech
Look KD is just saying and showing stuff differently all the time. Thats y he is a snake, or a cupcake etc. Where's the honesty when u change ur statements all the time
THIS Discussion Right Here is the BEST Discussion of The 'KD-WESTBROOK' Situation on YT. EVERY NBA Fan should Listen to this Clip.
this all could've been avoided if okc and clips traded their pgs cuz CP is a better fit for Durant and Westbrook would've been a better fit for BG
Keep that same energy Shannon Sharpe in 2024...
Warriors will not Win the chip this year Spurs will knock them boys out in The WCF.
Mieco Townsend Won't be stopped going to the rim, solid D still
Mieco Townsend spurs are too old and slow thunder beat them easily i can only imagine what golden state gonna do
easily?
I been saying that, IMagine if they trade boogie to the spurs or clippers or OKC. Well maybe not the clippers
Mieco Townsend we'll see
Shannon's face in the thumbnail says it all 😂😂
The NBA is pushing them beef to sell tickets and have sports topics
Shannon's suit is on point!
NBA has really turned into professional wrestling. Rigged and scripted AF, now with a side-order of soap opera drama sh!t.
Yes the game been rigged. LeBum did the same thing KD did and no one is talking about that. Not to mention, the league rigged every championship for him.
cyber6sapien it's not rigged
I am respecting Shannon more and more... He should never change. Straight shooter.
The disrespect on westbrooks name in this segment is beyond irritating
Sky Walker tell me about it always gets the blame even when it's KD fault
The OKC Vs GSW game ratings will be crazy. I'm calling in to work if I have to. Russy is a solid dude though.. KD tighten up my guy!
I'm glad Kevin Durant isn't the perfect teammate or the epitome of sportsmanship. I'm glad he chose jumpshots over practicing his interpersonal skills. People ask him about why he left. He answers the questions.
why would u be glad he chose jumpshots over interpersonal skills? team bonding is way more important than technical skill.
Josh Mills cause you don't get millions of dollars in the league for your people skills....
9:30 sounded like he was talking about a drive by lol
Hope Westbrook destroys that two-face!
Ortis Smith Same. He just couldn't leave respectfully. Single handedly ruined his own legacy, smh!
i like this show because they don't disagree just for the heck of it. just #truth
The reason OKC didn't make it to the finals is because of KD not Westbrook.
The one thing that infuriates about KD insuating that Westbrook was too selfish or that he couldn't win a championship with westbrook at point guard is that KD was largely the reason OKC gave up their 3-1 lead to the warriors, Russ played great and deffered shots to KD in cruchtime but KD consistently chucked bad shots and shot them out of the game.
Diggo00 I agree %100 he threw the game on purpose draymond green recruited him all year is brother toney Durant told me.
And now they have Carmelo and Paul George your arguement no longer works
i hope Westbrook goes Kobe and averages 35 on the league. 35 is a lot. Look at what curry did last year, that's was a whole 5 points less.
ajiceberg look what curry did in the finals...nothing lol
King Lando what did Westbrook do in conference finals nothing
Steph Curry The G.O.A.T actually Westbrook hit two game winners and averaged a double double against the warriors! But I don't expect someone with the name steph curry the goat to see that! Lol steph curry a goat, what an idiot!
ajiceberg you were kinda right, he's not averaging 35ppg, but he's averaging a triple-double
This is the best debate that they have ever had hands down
If Lebron manages to beat this warriors squad he is the G.O.A.T
Jordan never had to face a team of this calibre
avokadisimo21 But he won't.
avokadisimo21 He would complete the impossible, being able to beat a 70 win and possibly another 70 win super team
avokadisimo21 how can you say that, Jordan had a tough time playing against the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons. Chicago didn't have any real talent besides Jordan
Yougee Herivaux you a clown for saying that
for real man?? Jordan always had the better team in the finals...
Skip can't talk he just left Steven A. 😂😂
Kd left okc because they blew a 3-1 lead in the wcf but then he joins a team who blows a 3-1 lead
2:22 good to see I'm not the only one who finds "Russell Westbrook" a tongue twister lol
