The Herd with Colin Cowherd:

Will LeBron win another title this year?
Nope he'll get thru the pathetic east that has yet another 1 seed struggling in the 1st round vs 8 seed (hawks 2 years ago). Worst conference in sports for the last 15+ years
Real Question is : How many subscribers/viewers will you have after repeatedly having arguments over how great LeBron is compared to everyone in the NBA?
Colin Cowherd how many times will you ask the same question?
Colin Cowherd yes he will! LeBron is by far the greatest all around player of all time! I think he wins the next 3 titles
lol I meant "bias" not Bianca
Nick vs Skip IF YOU AGREE LIKE THIS🔥🔥
NaDeXe 23 comment and name is a W
NaDeXe 23 Damm fr fr I'll pay for this
My god...Nick vs Skip...I'd rather watch Home Alone 3 for a week straight.
Nick would destroy skip!

James jones : 45 playoff wins
MichaelC3 the real goat
MichaelC3 good for him he should get a cookie
MichaelC3 the champ
Lol yes he was with Lebron but he did not play half of those game lol
MichaelC3 hild his L
Yes lebron deserves a lot of credit for being incredibly durable. The man works on his body more than anybody else in the league. Other players need to follow his routines.
He abuses hgh
Has there ever been a nick wright segment w/o mentioning lebron?
Nate K no and never will be
When everyone's trying to put Kawhi over LeBron but that's legitimate nonsense and for some reason you have to KEEP REMINDING Jordansexuals/Kawhisexuals/Durantsexuals/Currysexuals like yourself
Nate K they aint facts
Francisco Orozco, then you are going to have too tell us what facts are
Nate K colin's whole show consists on four people lebron, Brady , belichick and nick Saban
Don't let this distract you from the fact that Nick Wright and Colin Cowherd would both eat a Hog Dog if LeBron spit on it first
w
eric garcia true 😂😂😂😂
eric garcia HAHAHHAHAHAHA the lebron dickriders
you win the interwebs today sir, well done.
eric garcia people hate even though they only spit facts
Kawhi's career high in assists is 7?? SEVEN?! This disrespectful argument should've ended right there. Lmao
Kay Stone exactly. Lebron has had multiple games with 15-16 sometimes even 17 assists. It's hilarious people compare these players.
Connor Smith has he?
Connor Smith his career high in assist is 17
So him having 7 assists as his career high doesn't make him comparable to Lebron? LMAO this Lebron fans don't get that Kawhi will be better than him.
Kobe Bryant I don't care if he'll be better than him eventually. The issue is a lot of folks are starting to say that Kawhi is better than Lebron RIGHT NOW. And that is just laughable and ridiculous. Kawhi is not even top 3 in the league.
Jokes aside, it's actually really creepy how much Nick Wright loves and studies Lebron
MichaelC3 crazy?I think creepy is the most suitable word
TheeeMusicalHooligan you right
MichaelC3 yeah creepy he does his job.
I think he has some assistants to do this work
bronsexualism is a disease
Loominaughty people who use the term " bronsexual" are statistically full time idiots with no friends and no life at all
When the 2nd biggest bronsexual and the number 1 biggest bronsexual unite
RayLewis#600God John dont forget shannon sharpe
John Cao you mean Leshannon?
RayLewis#600God John w
G-man you have to admit that he is too damn biased
LeBron James How come i never hear you haters say skip is to biased?....
Why doesn't Nick Wright say this to Skip?
BiggestBullsFan it will break a fight 😂
That means higher ratings!
skip wont have the facts to base his statements. He will just point out how lucky lebron got.
Jessica Sims tbf he did get lucky with ray Allen and draymond
It's seems like everybody hates Nick Wright but can never refute any of is fact-based arguments. So they just call him a Bronsexual instead.
Nick Wright uses stats out of context. He got exposed on twitter. twitter.com/Nick_Sciria/status/854885192154189824
EXACTLY
I don't understand how people can't comprehend the great arguments Nick/Colin make.
Heat Lifer Well, yes the arguments sound very logical and the numbers convincing but remember Colin and Nick would say anything that would support lebron's cases! No objektivity! And there are always numbers to back up any statement! In the end your eyes and winning says way more!
Heat Lifer They're like politicians. There arguments make sense and use facts, but they twist those facts to support their false claims. It's all well and good that Kevin had more playoff wins then any team in the last 4 years or that he lead his team in every statistical category during the finals last year. Does that mean he should be MVP this year? Absolutely not, it's a regular season award.
I you are buying what he is selling, that you must probably do not have your own perspective of the game. Comparing times of Michael Jordan and stats in that era to James times? That is ridicilious, rules of the game have changed and in this era we have almost few years where there were no dominant big C (Zeke spoke about that before MIami San Antonio three years ago.....dominant for example the way that Embiid was before injury). This guy never get matched against Zeke (Isiah Thomas) or some other experienced basketball player who is analyst because he would get crushed in the debate by my opinion.
As a youth basketball coach with long time experience I can tell you that Nick Wright is incredibly selective when it comes to the statistics and sometimes he makes real nonsense. I sounds great to the people who cannot judge things by themselves. For example when it comes to Boston in this video, why did he take only 4 year span? Not to hurt James record, of course.
The key of Leonard is his comparison to Jordan - it appears that he might have that mental strenght as MJ did- his numbers in playoffs were raised dramatically and he was go to guy in must score offense situations. And Poppovich knew that from day one (just look at hus 2012 statement). People often forget that when it comes to greatness, San Antonio Spurs key players in last decade were Tim Duncan (even more than decade), Tony Parker and Manu. Two of them will soon be gone, one will be 35 and it looks like San Antonio did not face rebuilding at all. Leonard was youngest Defensive player of the year and Finals MVP and because he is 26, he has many many seasons ahead of him
Nick just argued James harden is better than kawhi...it's a joke
Daniel Daw but he also proved that Lebron is having the best statistical regular season as well. nobody has put up his stats while shooting as efficient as he has this regular season. those are facts too.
I think the issue is you disregarding certain stats to make an argument against Nick because that's the only way to go against someone who covers all their bases
Did they really just compare their lives to Lebrons career?
No your just cant interpret what was being said in this video you and the ten people who liked this comment.
eleven
When did they compare?
Forget Lebron. Did you just say James Harden is better than Kawhi ? LOL
4:14 they could've had Jimmy Butler, and now you're probably going to get eliminated in the 1st round by *JIMMY BUTLER*. Celtics front office blew it. lmao
Creux Man of course Danny would have pulled the trigger if he only had to give up Brown, Nets 2017 pick and Amir Johnson. But for either Butler or George he had to give up 3 out of those 4 players (Crowder, Bradley, Smart, Brown) and both 2017 and 2018 Nets pick. This is ridiculous and obviously neither the Bulls nor the Pacers wanted to trade their franchise player. Man please inform yourselves better before you go at the Celtics front office.
Oh God Nicks talking about Lebron again
and here you are commenting, do you now see why they do it?
lvis11tj7 I've always known why they do it. You would have to be blind, deaf and dumb not to
Hipopotomus, the problem is you guys whine about it, even though all he uses are stats, you sound like schoolyard children, with the crying and the name calling, but not one of you has anything of merit to say when it comes to disagreeing with them......it is sad too watch
Immediately when I see this Bronsexual in the thumbnail I come to leave a dislike lol
closeedge....I know...hahahaha.....I wrote a mean response to you.......I was answering another question and put it in the wrong place.....hahahaha, sorry about that
This show is so much better when Broussard is a guest, adds knowledge, balance and some OBJECTIVITY
Nick Wright would marry LeBron if he had the opportunity to.
Brian Cheng I would too
Michael Parisi if he wants to give me a ring I ain't gonna say no
Brian Cheng
You would give Kobe head if you got the opportunity since you have his logo on your page
reallife935 lol
So would I! That's a lot of money, man.
Nick said everything I've been saying since after the trade deadline...and I'm a Boston fan! Danny waited too long.
Fire Danny! This is also coming from a Celtics fan.
Mister West Man of course Danny would have pulled the trigger if he only had to give up Brown, Nets 2017 pick and Amir Johnson. But for either Butler or George he had to give up 3 out of those 4 players (Crowder, Bradley, Smart, Brown) and both 2017 and 2018 Nets pick. This is ridiculous and obviously neither the Bulls nor the Pacers wanted to trade their franchise player. Man please inform yourselves better before you go at the Celtics front office.
Thus they will be swept. We will rebuild with these picks and Isaiah will want out. Watch.
Rip this comment
I love Nick Wright, dude is a seriously intelligent toucan look-a-like
Nick was spot on with Kawhi.
Kawhi > Haren
L Harden better than Kawhi and will prove it if they meet in the next round
Spurs will beat the Rockets, Pop has always beaten Dantoni in the playoffs.
Yeah, Harden >
nah not this year "Kobe Bryant" James Harden is the ex factor
Rushking20 #terribletowels Harden*
2003 I signed up for the Air Force... I loved Mr. Tony's Podcast before he left and Pardon the Interruption. 2007 I was in Korea A few miles from the North Korean border... Nick Wright always seems to pull these stats on Lebron and it makes you wonder what is everyone else smoking. Lebron is the most complete individual player to ever play the game of basketball. Mr. Wright said after all of Lebron's accomplishments he still put up a stat line that has only been done by... Lebron James. There is no one to compare him to much like Wilt. Wilt didn't win as many championships as maybe he should have based on his ability but you couldn't compare him to anyone. Lets also take a quick look back at the Jordan comparisons. Kobe was emulating Jordan before we even realized he was doing that. Any high flyer who entered the dunk contest was the next Jordan. People like Harold Miner (remeber him) Finely, Carter, A. Hardaway, Sprewell All of these 6'6 ish G/F were positioned to try and take the number 1 spot. Who can we legitimately say is like LeBron? Durant is too skinny, Westbrooke is too emotional and Porzingas isnt emotional enough. Curry, Lowry, and CP3 are too small. Davis and The Greek Freak are excellent players with a crazy package but can't shoulder a franchise like Lebron did in 2007. George has a Kobe game and Kobe didnt win until Shaq so... and we don't have any 7'1 300 ponders coming anytime soon. Rose let us all down when he became the RG3 of basketball need I say more? No one can be called the next Lebron but other stars have doppelgangers. You can argue that Curry and Thompson favor, Dreamond and Cousins favor, Anthony T. and Davis favor. Face it people somehow we have turned Lebron into modern day Charles Barkley. Incredibly gifted player but because of a few bad PR scenarios we make his status lower. IF Lebron stays in Cleveland and won 1 championship we maybe saying he is the best ever helping Cleveland like he eventually did. But since he left and all the theatrics we are condemning Lebron to some monstrosity of an existance when HE IS THE CHOSEN ONE period. #NickWrightisright #Getoverit #CanLebrongetthecrown... and yes Lebron will win the title.
As a Celtics fan this is hard to watch, but it's sadly very true
Man of course Danny would have pulled the trigger if he only had to give up Brown, Nets 2017 pick and Amir Johnson. But for either Butler or George he had to give up 3 out of those 4 players (Crowder, Bradley, Smart, Brown) and both 2017 and 2018 Nets pick. This is ridiculous and obviously neither the Bulls nor the Pacers wanted to trade their franchise player. Man please inform yourselves better before you go at the Celtics front office.
This is funny now
LMAO LeBron is his own team on that list hahaha
Honestly will Kawhi Leonard ever be the #1 guy in the nba. Probably not. Next up will probably be Giannis or Towns or even someone who isn't in the nba yet but not Kawhi or Harden or KD or Westbrook.
Tod Wilkinson Coach Pop* led a team
Tod Wilkinson but will he ever be the #1 guy in the nba.
Wright is actually right.
"Celtics misjudged this".
Whenever I find myself thinking they are judging the Celtics accurately I play myself this clip. Just to remind myself I should know better.
At some point. Y'all gonna be quiet and just respect Danny Ainge decision making.
And to think, a few months later he took their Superstar PG with the very same picks he was complaining about then not spending. 😅☘️
No where near the best? lol, Nick forgets how scared LeBron gets when Kawhi checks into the game. Probably still mad he didn't get the job at Cavs official shower towel boy.
give yourself a W
trooperjoe73 L
I forget LeBron's statlines in both of those Finals, remind me again because I think LeBron obliterated Kawhi.
If he didn't get a job at the cavs organisation, wouldn't he be hating on them then?
trooperjoe73
Hmmm didn't James avg 29/8/8 to Leonard 17 ppg in the Finals? Also didn't James have one if the highest PER in that Finals...
But yeah James fears Leonard!! 😂😂😂
WHY HAVEN'T THEY PUT THIS GUY TO DEBATE SKIP ON JUST ONE SEGMENT!!! WHYYY!! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE HOW THAT GOES!!
Antetokoumpo is the 2nd best player in the east and that's facts.
Nick995 This is why I hate Danny Ainge. We were supposed to have Giannis and Gobert.
Wait what...Nick Wright at the end 10:09 said these exact words "Lebron has been phenomenal in my childhood and now I have a child in college". Okay so he graduated high school in 2003, he was 18 years old. Now he has a child in college who is 18 years old at least. Does that mean Nick had a baby in 1999 when he was 14 ????
Bronsexual 😂😂😂 accurate af
My favorite part of Nicks arguments for LBJ are always filled with like 2 or 3 stats that NO one would ever think to look at but because he adds them only LBJ has ever had that stat line before hahahaha. LBJ had 60% from the line and 50% from the field and had 3 3pt attempts 30pts, 7rb and 8ast no one has ever done that before.
Right, because what else would Nick Wright talk about
5:54 Nick called it.
All he's doing is spitting facts.... you guys are just mad and can't accept the fact that lebron still rules the league stop playing games it's 1) lebron, 2) KD, 3) Kawhi, 4) harden (three on most people's list) he's saying facts and only facts no bias is in his argument
242okil at least you got the list right but kawhi could be either third or second
Nick Wright is my DUDE!!!! He keeps it thorough!!!!!
another nick wright Lebron is amazing segment.
Danny Ainge actually knew what he was doing apparently cause that trade with the nets got him Jaylen brown and Jason Tatum and they won a chip. Someone should remind Nick about his take on this haha
these guys are about that bronsexual life
1. LeBron James.
2. Kevin Durant.
3. Kawhi Leonard.
4. Kyrie Irving.
5. Stephen Curry.
Even numbers and logic don't stop the Bron haters from creating their own reality haha
As someone that is a fan of Lebron, I always laugh at Nick Wright finding these stats
thank god for nick. finally!!! this kawhi best player nonsense has been taken too far by the likes of barkley and shaq.
Karan Virk Skip takes it even further
Kawhi>>>your favorite player
Karan Virk you questioning Shaq's & Barkely's knowledge about the game
L
Karan Virk
Kawhi Leanord Great but he's no Lebron James
That Catherine Zeta-Jones comment was too funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂😏
dang.... Nick Wright is a bigger LeBron slurper than even Colin.
I love Nick Wright. He's extremely accurate
Rumor has it Nick Wright was prescribed 1g of Xanax per day when Lebron choked harder than anyone ever in 2011
Ethiopian Pride Lebron averaged 17/6/5. He choked don't get me wrong but biggest choke job ever? Nope. Probably goes to the 73-9 warriors actually
Individual choke. The rest of the Heat played as good as they usually do or better. Warriors pretty much all played under their typical level but no individual dropped as far as Lebron. 17/6/5 is ok for a borderline all star, not one of the best ever. Also his 4th quarters were especially dreadful
Connor Smith lebrons choke job is far worse, things atleast went against the favor of the warriors (draymond getting suspensed, bogut injury, and iggy's back giving out on him)
Ethiopian Pride you are not saying the truth. Lebron had the 3rd highest scoring avg of anyone playing that series, only D'Wade avg over 20 points a game and Dirk won MVP with less then 18 points scored a game.....that is the problem with stats being available to everyone
1 gram of xanax per day? sure bout that champ?
IDC what y'all saying Nick Wright spit the truth!
No Kristine Lebron hate and I love it lol
Nick Wright and Chris Broussard need a show together!!! ASAP
WE GET IT LEBRON IS GREAT, NOBODY IS DISPUTING YOU!!! WERE ALOUD TO LIKE OPTHER PLAYERS AND SAY THEY ARE GREAT....( Love both these guys )
read the post, people are disputing that
closeedge, you really should look into why you attack people personally on here, what do you gain from doing that?
closeedge01 you don't get to come on here and play the victim now, from your very first post you have been here to antagonize people, people reacted to your vitriol, it doesn't make what they did right, but it in no way makes you the aggrieved party
closeedge01....whew, thank God, you will not be missed, you added nothing of any value to this conversation and now I know how to rid myself of one of you, have a good day
Theres no arguing with them, they literally just say anything that makes lebron look better
1. Kawhi is incredibly overhyped and benefited from playing with Tim Duncan, Lamarcus Aldridge, and playing under the greatest coach in the NBA, Coach Pop. He benefits from playing in the best system in NBA history, ala any wide receiver in New England. 2. The Celtics drastically missed the mark here. They drastically overestimated their roster this year and will lose in either the first or second round. And even when LeBron either retires or is no longer the best player in the league (or the East), Giannis and the Bucks will take over. 3. LeBron has been the face of the NBA since BEFORE I've graduated high school and now I'm OUT of college. Nick is on the money in this. To anyone calling him a LeBron lover, he just appreciates greatness and is the antithesis of any and every Skip Bayless in the world.
Preach, seriously LeBron was already one of the best player in the league from day one
Dr.CookiesNeedLoveLikeEverthingDoes respect melo almost won it that year check the tapes
This comment hasn't aged well....
Rumours has it LeShannon, LeNick and LeColin get moist every time Lebron shoot 3.
He's right. It is Beyonce every year.
Milton Lane false
Milton Lane she's the LeBron of hot chicks, but I dunno about always giving it to her when there's hardens and Westbrooks out there too
Milton Lane Adele a better vocalist
Jay TS Who's more beautiful than Beyonce?
enrique bravo Talking about beauty. Beyonce is more beautiful than Adele..
Kawhi Leonard is statistically held in check by the Spurs system. I would be willing to bet Kawhi has more "hockey assists" than anybody because of the way San Antonio moves the ball. He also passes up shots that Harden, Westbrook, and Lebron would take because of who he plays for. He still makes big time plays and dominates on defense more than Lebron does at this point in Lebron's career.
greenakutabi While what you said is true, you cannot deny that Kawhi's court vision, passing ability and passing IQ is nowhere near that of LeBron's. I think that gets lost in this debate. Offensively, Kawhi can most definitely shoot and score, but he cannot run an offence like LeBron can. Some people believe LeBron could've play point guard when he was younger, and he got tons of Magic comparisons. While Kawhi is an amazing player and he is unselfish, I think it's important to not forget that LeBron has that huge skill over him.
Tod Wilkinson That's a bit ridiculous. First of all Kawhi has a 67 win record because hes on the Spurs, and he has the greatest coach in NBA history. Let's get that out of the way. Secondly, to say LeBron just dribbles around is not a very well thought out statement. Cleveland runs plays like any other NBA team, and when these plays are run LeBron has an exceptional ability to find open players and kick it to open shooters like a point guard, even though he's a 6'8 small forward. He makes smart skip passes and he is amazing at driving and kicking, even when running iso. Kawhi does not posses that ability to the level that LeBron does, and its not very close. That's what I'm arguing. And a statement like: LeBron "just dribbles the ball around for 24 seconds" sounds like something that a person says who doesn't posses very much knowledge about the game of basketball.
greenakutabi the Cavs can't win without Lebron, the Spurs can win without Kawhi. Arguement done. Without Kawhi they are still a top three team in the west.
Terrance Deramus Agreed.
#bronsexual
Mr Speed Very original comment.
Kay Stone but its a very true comment
3peats It's an ignorant comment because it dismisses all the facts that are presented. I would have a problem with Nick if he never presented facts and just made blanketed statements of love for Lebron's greatness. But he doesn't do that. He presents stats and facts all the time. And if you disagree you have to present facts that support your argument, not some overused word like bronsexual.
Kay Stone kawhi's averaging 34.5 ppg on 72 percent shooting leading his team 2-0 over a tough grizzlies team and lil nicky is dismissing that and drooling over lebron squeeking out 2 wins over a weak indiana team? That sounds like a bronsexual to me......
3peats So you're saying Kawhi averaging 34.5 ppg, shooting 72% percent, and leading his team to a 2-0 start over the Grizz in the 1st RD of the playoffs thus far means he's better than Lebron?? Lil Nicky just spoke career numbers between the two which were all FACTS. He never dismissed Kawhi, said he was the 7th best in the world, and probably even the 2nd closest to Lebron. But the FACT is career wise Nick is completely right...
Nick Wright is obviously one of the best basketball minds covering the NBA. The only thing he's ever said that I disagree with is that James Harden is a better player than Kawhi. Other than that he's totally on point.
This is painful to watch ....like two 13 year old groupies screaming and crying over Justin Bieber
what are you talking about? they are just stating facts
Two grown men drooling over another grown man and laughing and giggling like little schoolgirls....everybody knows Lebron is great no need to spend so much time on every one of his shows to get on their knees for him. Every one of his shows is now "lebron lebron lebron"
because its ALL he talks about. If you brought him into a discussion about Argentinian history or WWII, he'd somehow compare it to LeBron and how he's the MVP of every season and then start spewing off about how he's great because he cuts his toenails at a a perfect angle that makes him jump higher. It's ok to state facts, but once LeBron retires, what's this guy gunna do? lol
Frank Champion Please define "everybody". Tons of people think that Kawhi is better than LeBron, even though he's not. I was just reading another comment about this kawhi fan and he was trying anything he could to defend him.
Frank Champion everybody knows Lebron is great...really? including skip bayless?
So happy for Tom Green now talking sports
Oh please Beyonce hasn't been one of the prettiest women since 2005.
Michael Pun you kidding me? Beyoncé been the baddest of them all
Well why can't you put Chris Broussard in the sit, he is more objective than any of you two.
Beyoncé is not that beautiful. She's like the Melo of the NBA
Joe Petito @J YOU MOST BE WHITE
Norman Johnston you must be black because you can't spell
Norman Johnston lol yea I MOST be white. I'm also Puerto Rican soooo.....PARADOX ahahahaha
Joe Petito purto Rican, lol. So, you're a mut.
I like Nick, he makes a lot of sense and actually uses stats to back his argument up.
Bro kawhi is much better than harden
MY LEG!!! I'll say defensively but offensively I'll rather fake harden he's unguardable
MY LEG!!! foreal harden is trash .
Am I the only one who noticed the comment about Josh Jackson? "4 years from mattering" good lord Nick Wright lol
kawhi is the deal deal he is the 2nd best in the world yes he is better than durant
edwin ramirez facts
edwin ramirez So he was better than Durant when the Spurs played the Thunder last year
edwin ramirez I'm sorry KD killed Kawhi last year, what has Kawhi done that makes him better than KD
Brandon Martinez win a championship with a finals mvp oh and 2 time defensive player of the year what has KD done I ask u???
edwin ramirez
Kd is a 4x scoring champ, has the 4th highest ppg average in nba history, made much more all nba teams than kawhi, and is the best offensive player in the league. Kawhi is great but he isn't better than Durant. Kawhi is playing with the greatest coach of all time, 3 hall of famers, and great role players.
I swear to God I have NEVER heard Nick Wright critizie Lebron. Not once. As for Cowherd, anyone else remember in the first 3 or 4 games of the series against GS he was going on and on about how Lebron is old and shot. He was saying how we are seeing the end of his career. Now he is a deacon in the church of James. Led by Pastor Wright.
How is Kawhi, who is unselfish, suppose to acquire more assists when Danny Green isn't shooting it well this season, Simmons can't shoot, Parker/ Ginobili are old and Aldrige has been nothing but streaky? Explain that to me.
Hanma Yujiro thats just this year, he hadnt had many assist throughout his whole career....
He did say career, so past season and thus season.
That's understandable but when you don't tell the whole story it's misleading, Nick also said, and this was uploaded a few days ago, that Kawhi Leonard is selfish.
Didn't hear him say selfish but Kwahi is certainly is not one.
Hanma Yujiro Kahwi isn't selfish but he's also not unselfish. His career 3 assists per game proves it. Denying it shows you are just arrogant and living in denial.
When the spurs play vs Houston. Kawhi will be the best player in that series!!! Harden is amazing but the guy does not play defense and you cant say you are better than someone if you only great in one category and that's offense. Just saying!!
kawhi is CRAZILY overrated
KG Big Ticket yep
The very reason why Nick is so right about Lebron and his dominance shows why he is wrong about the Celtics criticism. Who here thinks that with the addition of Butler or George, the Celtics would dare to dispute the Eastern finals with the Cavs? Would it make any difference? So why spend draft picks and cap space in a hurry for these playoffs just to win a couple of games in the first or second round? C'mon. That graphic means nothing, Boston was in rebuilding process and Lebron was in the finals for six straight years. Guess which was the last team to come from this conference with no Lebron in the squad? Yeah, the CELTICS. Twice. I know this takes any emotion/competition out of the game but let's be honest, it doesn't matter at all to win some games and falling from the mountain top. The only team that has some chances to compete it's Washington. Good luck to them, they would need it.
imo, beyonce is not all that...
khoa1708 OK?
you know it's bad when you actually agree with everything Nick Wright said
This aged well Nick Wright
This has aged very well. Nick Wright has been spot on for a very long time.
It’s insane... so overlooked as an analyst
Milwaukee was irrelevant till this year? They took the bulls to 6 games two seasons ago.
The dumbest argument against kawhi is when they mention his earlier years. These last two years are when Kawhi has improved his game the most and has become an allstar. The assist argument also has little weight since the Spurs offense doesnt play into high assist numbers per player only per team. During Parkers hof career his best year was 7.7 ast. whos a PG! People expect a SF to put up high assist numbers in the spurs system? Thats not how they operate.
i find it impressive that kawhi only has one game over 40 points and averages over 25 on the season thst shows incredible consistency
Colin sorry but Giannas is that exciting young guy
Meanwhile Skip is debating how Kawhi has passed LeBron LOL
Colin loving every minute of this conversation
God I have a man crush with Nick Wright's brain. Please get this man a show FS1.
Nick + Colin + Shannon vs. Skip + Kristine + Whitlock should happen when they talk about LeBron lol
Nick is TOTALLY right.
Kawhi is better than both Durant and Harden, come on.
And his take on the Celtics is the second time I agreed with him
Nick Wright nailed it on Boston
Boston got enough to get both PG and Jimmy
this is the first time i agreed with wright. kawhi love over lebron, curry, harden, westbrook, or even john wall is crazy
When is the basketball community gunna acknowledge lebrons hgh use like the baseball community has with Barry bonds.
Nick Wright is a legend
When you realize Leonard doesn't pass...thought he was great for a sec lol
have you ever played with bron in 2k, hes unstoppable!
Y'all get on Nick Wright for his crush on LeBron but he constantly talks fax while all I ever see down here is corny arguments that obviously are just looking for a way to hate
This... just made me feel old.
Colin's "Lebron is great" reaction @ 1:09 Colin's "Kwahi should have been runner up" reaction @ 1:19 LOL
As a playmaker, Lebron is in a different strastosphere. As far as defense, it's safe to assume Kawahi has eclipsed Lebron in that department. In offense, they are equal but I'd give the slight nod to Kawahi bc he is more consistent with his shots and he is by far the superior ft shooter. But overall, Lebron is still overall the better player. Give Kawahi a few more years to develop in Pop's system and he will surpass Lebron
