Diamond 96 , 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, yes
It's a damn shame
My man said Ty Law lmao
Brandon Acevedo lmfao
Brandon Acevedo lhhh
immediately scrolled thru the comments after he said that lmao
Better than Ty Lawson
lol ty law
LeBron deserves better...
Le choke always blames others. He always deserves better. Lol.
DsLmaNiaC who has he blamed? You Lebron hater are literally the cancer of the nba community
Same dudes in here hating on him be the same dudes who weren’t even fans of the nba till he game into the league
Lebron destroy Confidence at his team mates..they defer too much to him..and they lose their game.Jr Smith once a upon a time had a drive to the basket.once a upon a time he had a jump shoot at 40% he is not too old to degress so much..Kevin Love to mee he is very bad when they are seting a play for him..he is best from natural flow when ball go around some back screan small cuts on elbow.And i Have a message for Love if he READ DONT ATACK KD.you push him he block yo9u every time trough push he dont mind push becouse he is too long,with kd only up and under.
Kobe deserved better when he was playing with kwame brown and smush Parker but who gave him a pass?
Nick's Salty af!!!
Frefer Porti 💯💯💯
I absolutely love the hate Curry gets that proves to me that he is an All Time Great and the jealousy is real ... Steph please don’t stop shimmying
Larry Okoye who hatering no one on the Cavs hateing
Remember when LeBron got some of his close friends jobs with the NBA. I think Nick Wright was one of those guys.
Nick's Take on Why NBA Players Don't Like Steph Was Golden. No Pun Intended.
IKE Mitchell he's so right about Stephen being arrogant. But I think he left out that a ton if those players who hate him are other fantastic point guards who CARRY their teams and get less respect
Or those birds from the original wizard of Oz lmao
SirAlaska FACTS.
Would love th hear Nick talk about why people don't like him.
Nah their jealous
Nick wright is OBSEESED with LBJ. Its kinda sick actually
Donald Lane agreed!
Rather have Nick than Skip Bayless with his idolatry with MJ and also with LeBron also
He's the anti-Skip Bayless.
Job Steve absolutely. Nick thinks Lebron is God. Skip picks everything apart with Bron. No matter how well he performs
EVERY sports analyst is
The hate and bitterness for Steph Curry is sad at this point... appreciate greatness
Loony T same with bron
Loony T Like my grandpaw says: haters gonna hate!
SWEEP!
Loony T
It's a fair assessment by Nick. It should be added that he was just a piece for each of the rings he won. Iggy and kd are the finals mvps.
Nice burn Nick. So good.
Well said" I don't watch for the mystery but for the journey. "
If Nick Wright can have his own show on FS1 is anything, it means anyone can do anything.
Well, anyone besides captainjack8319, who still can not form a full sentence with his words.
Robert Paulson Listen Nick...I mean “Robert Paulson”, no need to became a grammar Brownshirt.
Nick Wright will love Steph if he played on his loverboy LBJ's team. Just like he loved Kyie then hated Kyrie when he left the Cavs.
But how is it Steph's fault he had a good upbringing?
Look how they ignore all the injury problems he's had to go through.
It’s not, nicks just trying to explain why other players seem to have it out for him
I understand, it just seems stupid to me that players can dislike someone because of that
You have no listening comprehension? It's not about his childhood. It's about how the media/the world portrays him even though he had this beautiful one-of-a-kind childhood. The media tries to make us feel pity for him because he was "so small" and was only drafted 7th overall. They media tres to make us feel pity for him because coaches back then thought he was weak and couldn't shoot, and thus he barely made it to the NBA draft - oh wait, nvm. That's why NBA players are annoyed with him. He has a better life than 95% of every NBA players yet he's treated as such an angel who overcame such adversity (like a knee injury :() when they had to overcome family issues and financial issues since day 1.
I didn't know Tom Green cared so much about basketball. 😏
Nick Wright-- Solid appearance today, my dude. Good work.
Stephen was an underdog in terms of his success in the league. We all heard the draft announcers criticize his defense, size, “unrealistic” range, ability to get around larger players, etc. Not only was he underestimated in college, but then came into the league to get bombarded with ankle injuries shortly after. Because he was heavily doubted about what his success would look like in the league, and to have missed the games and gone through what he did because of his injuries, he is an underdog. No one doubted his road to the NBA, sure, he’d make it, but no one, & I mean absolutely no one expected this man to win 3 titles (4 soon) and have 2 MVPs (1st unanimous) & to be a 5x All Star, not to mention other accomplishments in the league, especially dealing with his insane shooting. Not to mention he has unarguably gained the title of best shooter to ever play.
And about the arrogance aspect.. He should be able to have arrogance, to have confidence. He is the best shooter we’ve ever seen, he should be allowed to celebrate when he knows his shot going in, to shimmy because he hit a 3 in front of the bench, or to squat because he just pulled up from half court and made it. Yeah, if I was that good, I’d be arrogant too. But like, it’s totally okay for Lebron to pound his chest or stare a player down after a poster, for Harden to stand and stare before shooting after a crossover, for Russ to yell and scream and throw his fist in the air after an insane dunk. But god forbid Steph to celebrate his unbelievable ability to shoot the ball. That’s whack.
At the end of the day, give respect where it’s due. Stephen has earned his spot with the top dogs in the league, and no matter what his size is or what his background looks like, there’s no denying that.
Steph was considered an underdog because people doubted him coming into the nba, even going into college. They all said he was too small and wouldn’t be able to play the point guard position. Even warriors fans like myself had no idea he would be this good
Even though Stech struggled with the Warriors for his first few years? Injuries after inuries and very poor winning teams. His first 3 years had a total of like 40 wins... Watching his development as a warriors fan has been amazing.
ive never looked at it like that before..Nick's got a point....
What was nick saying? I couldn’t hear him with lebrons nuts in his mouth
No disrespect to lebron I like seeing him play, but curry gets criticized for literally anything by this guy
Raudhel 24 Colin asked him why he is not popular among players.... In his analysis he says explicitly how great Steff is top 25 all time... You choose not to listen..
RYan Samuels he always has something bad to say about curry literally in almost every vid he’s on he talks bad about him,
Raudhel 24 his hate for Curry is off the charts because his team is a threat to Lebron. He would like Curry if he played for a team that Cleveland can beat
Hamilton Johns nick is just a fanboy but yeah you’re right, he’d probably love Curry if he played for the Nets or the Suns or some other non contender team because lebron would easily beat them
This guy really said Curry shimmying or looking away before the ball drops is what makes him not like him LOL. That’s just pure confidence in his shot and IT BRINGS ENTERTAINMENT.. I’m from London and the original thing that made me and many other casual fans watch NBA is seeing great plays/moves that’s why NBAs becoming a more global league! the spite Nicky Wrong has in him is unreal. But if LeBron does a no look dunk he’ll be the first to applaud him for it
He sayin that seats y other basketball players dont like curry..Not him
Lbj can do no Wrong in Nicks eyes. #hippocrite
Throwing a gum shield full of saliva at a person is disgusting
Yeah and doesn’t lebron do that dance where he puts his knees up and beets his chest
Nick mad ain't he. Steph and Klay life paths were not their chosen, they were born into wealth. Get real dude.
THANK YOU NICK!!!!! FOR THE STEPH ANALYSIS
Nick Wright is awesome every time he comes on Colin's show.
It's at 9:20 guys...Colin withheld from mentioning Westbrook for that long
Nick should just admit he hates Curry because Lebron would have been 6 and 3 in the finals if it weren't for Curry. Instead it is to be 3 and 6
zell2626 he’ll never admit that but that is the 100% percent truth
Because of curry? Lol
Yet curry has 0 finals MVPs. Facts say curry wasn't the reason lebron lost.
It’s funny there is a video of him saying that he hates them because Durant joined them and lebron was on his way to another title
Did he say LeBron would take Iguodala's position???? LMAO!!!! I would officially be DONE!
The other light skinned splash brothers daddy ALSO PLAYED IN THE NBA AND SHOOTS 3S. YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME 😂😂
Kevin Durant going to the Warriors was great for the NBA!!!
I remember when someone asked me who I was rooting for in a past final between GS and Cleveland, I said I was rooting for GS because I liked that Thompson and Curry worked themselves up from poverty to make it to the NBA. It took a minute or two, but the person finally said, "wait a second . . ."
Nick spitting straight FACTS on the splash bros oh boy.
Talk it up Nick!!
lebron to washington..."i wish" and this is the 1st time i actually agree with NICK!! god cant believe i said that
6:08 *STRAIGHT FACTS*
How were the Wizards on KD's radar when he didn't even give them an interview.
Nick wright is exactly like skip bayless but with polar opposite views
I’m gonna go with Cleveland tonight! I hope that they can pull it out because if they don’t then the series is officially over.
Christopher Chapman it was over before it even started.
Muji lol it really was 😂
Damn they ain't win gsw in 4
Good lord nick wright truly despises steph curry simply because hes about to catch up to lebron in rings lmao the bias is too real
i agree. and curry took down his precious rockets. he's a hater pure and simple. curry is a great player and has the hardware to back it up. i don't give a damn about the underdog story what matters is how someone plays and nick can't say anything about his play so he has to go after other things that don't matter.
Nathan B he hates anyone that is any kind of threat to Lebron winning
Nobody said Kd couldn’t move.. he just shouldn’t have moved to THAT team
Denny Kaleal yup coz one man’s life decision should not go against what others perceive to be the right decision. Foh.
Denny Kaleal draymond Green suspension and Bogut injury.
This guy is literally upset because Golden State is destroying all of LeBron hopes of winning multiple championships. So he bashes Curry and Durant. But I recall LeBron going to Miami and saying not one, not two, not three, not four!!! What the heck is that.
Did Nick wright say Durant has been better through two games than curry? Has he watched the games? What a clown
Eric Nigro he hates curry so much lol
He didn’t say that as a matter of fact he advocates Curry will be Finals MVP
Curry is mad overrated not saying he sucks, but that's my opinion on him tho.
Isaiah Jackson How many players in the NBA are better than Curry would you say? Like Curry is the what number best player in the world?
Isaiah Jackson how can a back to back mvp be "mad" overrated? you're hate is blinding you my dude.
So the guy who leaves and quits and goes to a “better” team when he gets upset at losing is the GOAT?
When you're the common denominator in now 3 somewhat or seriously dysfunctional relationships (Cleveland twice, miami), maybe its on you.
Nick Wright with his basketball spin off of "White Privilege" lmao
Nick Wright not only funny looking but funny when he talks
Not so fast Nick Wright on giving Curry that Finals MVP award, after Game 3 Durant has clearly moved up to favorite to win Finals MVP for a second straight year.
NBA back then after playoffs: I need to get back stronger for the team next season.
NBA today after playoffs: I'll think where i'll be bringing my talent next season.
“Ty Law”
😂😂😂😂😂
Why tf does nick have to tell his life story. Nobody cares
I'm more offended that Nick Wright has a job than I am that Steph is a superstar.
GunterJPN 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
GunterJPN Yes!👍🏾
Ty Law would be a step up for The Cavs
Steph and klay are hated cause they don’t fit into the “black stereotype”
Steph is an underdog because he has a miracle story, he's 6 foot 3* not 4, he's changed the game of basketball, and never had any big time college offers like Westbrook or kyrie. He came from Davidson, no one knew where that was or what it was, he carried them to a final four appearance and became the 7th pick in the draft because teams with 1-6 picks underestimated him. Steph truly is an underdog.
Slosh Gucci sure in the NBA he is an underdog... In life most players backgrounds are much more challenging.... The next generation of players are going to be alot like Steph... LeBron is cool with Steph Nick just making that up because of the question
12:16 lol @ the shout out to Mike Francesa
I'm not buyin that criticism on Steph, he still had to work for his spot, regardless of his upbringing.
Ty Law 😂😂😂😂
Nick Wright is a beast
This two always dreaming to beat the warriors. Love watching this guys.
Steph gets knocked around, scratched, and tossed. I think we can allow a shimmy or a look-away three pointer.
Side chick Nick is all in his feelings lol
The Gooch 😂😂💯
The Warriors in the long run are good for the NBA. When we look back in history do we look back at the Bulls' three-peats as bad for the NBA? No, we don't. In the moment, it seems bad but when we look back on their dominance it will be good for NBA history and good for the NBA product. Its amazing how thinking about something a little deeper makes all the difference. Nick just thinks on teh surface and doesn't look beneath the surface.
The reason players do not like Steph is pretty simple: He torches (and teases) them on offense and when they want to payback he is on the other end of the floor guarding whoever is the offensive liability on the other team.
He is like the small kid that sucker punches you, runs away and hide behind his big brothers.
I am still a big fan. The guy is a legend. Best shooter of all time. Completely changed the game of basketball by being comfortable making the kind of shots all the defenses wanted you to take.
Damn nick went in on steph
why does everyone beleive what LB says, he was the reason why Kyrie wanted to leave but then he says he didn't want them to trade Kyrie, come on
9:29 That is the realest thing i've ever heard from Nick Wright and i never even thought about it like that but it's so true. The thing is that it's not even Steph's fault just like Nick said it's the media and how they have portrayed Steph's career.
Football the best team doesn’t always win but in basketball the best team always win. So there’s no upsets no fun.
Nick Wright is wrong... Steph isn't arrogant... he's confident. Colossal difference... he doesn't get tons of technicals... he's not a big talker. Those couple moments he's blowing out of proportion!
There is some bitterness towards Steph. And it sounds like Wright is leading that charge.
A Golden State fan once told me he liked Steph because "he didn't act black" whatever that means.
We need the warriors to destroy the cavs so we can abolish this east v west BS and have the top 16 teams in the playoffs
eyeMopUC that makes too much sense
That isn’t the argument. The argument is that people won’t watch this finals series because the Warriors are much better than the Cavs
The post game in game 4.
Will Ty Lue be terminated as head coach if they lose this series?
The way Nick sounds hating Curry is the way half you Warriors fans sound hating Lebron
ty law was so good.
so Steph is supposed to apologise for being born into a successful family? Are his parents to blame then? Doesn't every parent ever want to provide the best for their children? WTF?
It's a dumb a$$ argument.
Lol @ "Stef Curry child of God, " remark. I agree, but he's so much fun to watch.
I'm not a warrior fan at all,
But it's funny that when the warriors are loosing games Colin say that they are the soft skinny jeans team from the suburbs of silicon valley and that they don't have no nasty to them, but when there winning, they're fascinating, smart and highly revered.
Nick wright put his finger right on the pulse.
Ty Law?
Nick Wrong obviously has not been watching these finals. Curry has out played K.D in both games so far
Donald Lane no
LOL Squidward keeps on defending Lebron. Durant moved to GSW yes. But remember Lebron was the first one to do it when he moved to Miami.
I want great value Shaka Smart to keep the same energy when players like Gronk celebrate.
Nick wright's opinion on Steph Curry is accurate, but yet i still love Steph cuurry
I don't like Nick Wright but he's 100 percent right.
Bron should join the Pelicans
Doc Q agreed
Doc Q. Uh uh. We don't want that drama down here. Even though he's a great player, he is locker room cancer! Just say no, kids, just say no!
Deena Price y was he vote by nba players he the most they want to play with
well thank god you don't make decisions for the team then
Deena Price okay be content with a second round exit every season.
I got the "Land". The only game that they will win.
Donald Lane game.4 too
NBA is not about LeBron nick, quit shoving that narrative to us
Nick and a lot of guys don’t like Steph for 1 reason: their girlfriends and wives pass by the tv screen while the game is on and say, “Oooh he cute.”
That’s it. You’re welcome.
Only problem with Durante move is that LeBron James already did it when he went to Miami.
Jalonnie Johnson so False Miami was not the best team in the conference.... He just went to play with his friends...KD on the other hand went to the team that beat him.... LeBron would have had to go to the Celtic's to be making a KD move
You must not know basketball.
LOL
RYan Samuels More like if he joined SA after 2014 loss. That would have been nearly identical. Spurs would have four peated then.
The point is lebron created a superteam, that's it. All the other talk is irrelevant.
3:37 NO, the Rockets were NOT the "greatest 3 point shooting team in NBA history"; they just ATTEMPT more of them than any team in history. Their shooting percentage from 3 in 2017-18 was exactly at the NBA average for the season, and in terms of rank, they were #13 out of 30. By shooting percentage, they were slightly closer to being tied for #30 than they were to being tied for #1. That is NOT the "greatest 3 point shooting team in the history of 2017-18", let alone NBA history.
Seriously, it would've taken you 10 seconds to look this up on Basketball Reference, and if this is your job you should've known it without looking it up.
For me, as bad as kd going to warriors ruined the league for most people, its fun to watch great players playing with each other. I havent seen a team this dominant (people are saying this could be the greatest team ever), so im just enjoying the ride. Sooner or later, they're gna break up or get old and we'll get back to multiple legitimate contenders. Im enjoying watching a great team dominant (hence im not old xd) for 4 years+ because i probably wont see another one this great!
Nick is right on this Steph stuff Collim. You lost me. Audios "herd"!
Nicks mad cuz steph is dominating his boy friend lebron
A.R. Smith can’t be that valuable if u down 0-2. Empty stats if it’s not turning into W’s
ThePismokook
The only way Steph could dominate Lebron is in 2K 🤷♂️
Asap_Rai that's such a narrow minded preschool take. please try to add some context and actual substance to your nonsense before you say it
Facts
ThePismokook 💯💯💯
How can anyone take this dude seriously when he was 100% confident Cavs would lose the Pacers, and then was as confident they would lose to Boston. And also said Lebron isn't important in the NBA. And now says any team Lebron is on is top tier lol
Chris Paul's not crazy wanting max money. If he didn't get hurt, the Rockets might very well have beaten Golden State.
Boston could've credibly won; Steph is playing waayy better than KD in these finals
Oh and one more thing despite his background Steph put in the work to become a great player that had nothing to do with his dad ties to the sport...same goes for Clay
I find Steph incredibly lovable too and Klay absolutely adorable :-)
