- The Denver Nuggets beat the Los Angeles Lakers 112-105 to go up 3-0 on the series. The Nuggets have beat the Lakers 11 straight times now, but LeBron James said “as long as you still have life, you obviously have belief”. He also said “it’s just basketball at the end of the day”. Nick Wright, Chris Broussard, and Kevin Wildes discuss whether or not the Lakers have any heart in this series.

No.
Nah
Nick is laughing, but hes really dying inside.
FACTS
Definitely💯💯😂😂😂😂😂
he just like me fr
Facts 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This seems like a copy & paste comment on every other video 😂
Wildes is actually the GOAT for that intro
Best hip hop references in the game
For real
💯💯💯💯
Absolutely. ❤
And he did Welcome To Atlanta. What a G 🤟
Lol Jokic had the quietest 24 15 and 9 in NBA history
Lol
Yeah, because Lakers bench did absolutely nothing. It’s easy to beat the team when the other teams bench is literally not playing basketball at all.
@@SSJRome my thing is the Lakers lead all three games so the crazy thing is yeah LeBron might get swept again but it’s just crazy how close these games have been between these two teams you will never again see a team gets swept with it being as close though, that’s was just crazy that I can’t get over
@@basketballgod2791”Close sweep”?
@@basketballgod2791 And yet nobody wants to go around bragging about a ‘close sweep’… much less two of them in a row 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 Wildes with the Lake Show in 6 banner. Well played guys
Yeah, love it when the foreshadowing pays off, Nick told us he'd do something with that envelope reveal if he was wrong 😂
I can now legitimately see a Wizard of Oz movie with Wildes as the tin man, Bru as the lion, and Nick as the scarecrow
Nick is a flying monkey, except he's the one that falls immediately and splatters on the ground after jumping out of the window.
i like the way you think. maybe jokic as dorothy, bron as the wicked witch and the rest of the lakers as the flying monkeys
Lebron as the wizard of oz, and the little man behind the curtain is Adam silver.
Nooooo Nick would be Toto…..
Lebron is one of the midgets
🤔😏@@sherlockinsomniac
You may hate Nick, you may hate Brou, you may hate Wildes... but my god they have chemistry. The 3 of them belly-laughing at the end with the banner was contageous 😅
I only hate Nick. I'm fine with other two
Nobody hates Wildes
@@hristijandimitrovski8664Even if you hate him, go watch the shows where he’s not there, it’s missing something, shows like that needs an heel, Nick is perfect in that role
@@hristijandimitrovski8664how u hate somebody u never met or because he got a different opinion then you 😂😂😂
@@edrushhh maybe he is, but he has a loot, a lot of bad takes. And it's not soo much big deal about that, the problem is, when he is saying those things, HE IS 10000% sure that he what he is saying is right. He said history will come very quicly for Jokic and people would understand that he is nothing special, that he is great just in regular season, that he is the worst MVP in NBA history, even when he won his 2nd MVP in 2022, Nick ranked him barely 5th in the league that year... He was soo sure about Lakers beating Denver, he is soo sure about Lebron being the GOAT despite the favt that really should've not be a debate in first place because Jordan is way ahead of him😂 amd I can go on and on... The point is, the man literally just barely knows about basketball.
Why is this only 5 minutes? I want a full 10 minutes segment of Nick suffering!
That exact reason, swept under the rug like the Lakers themselves
If Lakers win they lead the show probably lol
I wanted 10min
Me too 😂😂😂 I wait all day for this haha
Get cable. Lol
Doesmy care he already rode bron tp millions
The banner at the end was golden 🤣🤣
The moment tht pic was posted I knew it was gonna be a banner somehow
That Jokic comparison with Magic and Bird was 100%😂
You know what, Nick told us that’s exactly what he was gonna do with that photo 😂
Wilds with the Biggie reference off the bat. Can’t even be mad 🐐
D-Lo was booking his vacation 😂😂😂😂
I’ve been waiting so long for this upload 😂
How? It just happened?
RIP B.I.G and shout out Wildes he wilin’ with that! FS1 you better treasure that man
Was looking 4 this comment Wildes 😂
U MEAN FS1 NOT ESPN
FS1
Nick using that "Lakers in 6" with wildes holding pick even before the series finishes is gold 😂
The Lakers' 2nd loss of this series was their best win of the last 2 years. To think they were so close to taking the champs to overtime. What an effort.
That means ABSOLUTELY, that was one of denver's worst games ever, and THEY'RE STILL SWEEPING THOSE BUMS
😂😂😂😂😂
Yes they were so close to possibly stopping their losing streak at 10, what warriors
@@Mdksupreme1 you are unbelievably slow... hes trolling... its so obvious its a joke. you need micheal jordan mate. STOP IT , GET SOME HELP
Oh please..lebron blew a 20 point lead..it wasn't like they came back..NUGGETS CAME BACK..LEBRON BRICKING A THREE..WHICH WAS UNNECESSARY FOR HIM TO TAKE..WITH 15 SEC LEFT ON THE CLOVK..LAKERS ..ESPECIALLY LEBRON..IS SORRY ASF
The Tin Man bit is AMAZING. Please bring it back whenever a team someone believes in starts to fall apart lmfao
Nick Wright doesn't know basketball. Why does he have that job? Lakers are the "tin man" with no heart? Nick Wright is the scarecrow with no brain.
Lakers in 6. Never a doubt.
"At the end of the day, its just basketball"
Love your channel bro!
@@notayoutuber09lebron is Damm near 40 years old and still acts like an adolescent lol
😂😂😂 I'm loving it.
Lakers in 9
Let me guess the Lakers "figured something out" remember that one 🤣
probably figured out that they should have gotten rid of Dlo after he vanished in the post season the first time
Brought it back after game 1 with " we have a bunch of adjustments....."
They figured out that it’s fun starting vacation in May
I mean, they honestly kinda have. If the Lakers get even mediocre play from their role players it is, at minimum, a 1 game Nuggets lead and maybe a 1 game Lakers lead. But the Nuggets role players are knocking down the good looks that are being created for them while Rui is hitting nothing but backboard on open 3s and missing more point blank layups in a series than most miss in a career. Not trying to say the Lakers should win the series because Denver is clearly the better team, but it has no business being the sweep it’s going to be
_squeaky, squeaky, squeaky!_ Wildes is so savage 😆🔥
needs some oil ! 😂😂😂
Tin Man mode got me deadddddd
It wasn’t that funny actually
@@xrppornstar9483 okay
@@xrppornstar9483 yup it was cringe
@@stmaster21well it made you mad so clearly it did something
@@nostradumass6248 it made me cringe. just like his letters. what it "did" was take away from real analysis. the wildes special!
You gotta give us a little more than a 5-min segment of NBA!
Nick told the producers he only wants to get exposed for this long
@@SOURJDADDY My sources say he told the producers he didn’t want to do this segment at all because it would expose him as one of the biggest fraudulent analysts in sports right now.
@@SOURJDADDY You morons do know they do like a whole 2 hour show in which they dont post everything on youtube?
😆 Wildes is hilarious. "Tinman - no heart!"
Nick wrong, with that laugh is amazing 😂😂😂
Chemistry is unmatched. That banner at the end *chefs kiss*
Wildes was thugging in the 90s with that Biggie reference...
The Magic and Bird comparison is spot on. GREAT take, Broussard.
I’d only say - he needs to accomplish more. But he’s on that trajectory that sort of game.
The Nuggets must be bored 😂. 11 games in a row and the majority of them have the Lakers leading at halftime. This is cold blooded😂.
They are bored, look at joker 😂
Brousad speaking facts on what Magic and Bird were
Bird in his prime was 29 11, and 7
He was that good
Brou’s reaction to the banner is gold😭😭😭
"That right there, when i got swept by the Nuggets, not once, not twice, but..... That made me the Greatest Of All Time.".
if you get swept in the 1st round back to back seasons you can't possibly be the GOAT
@@stmaster21people dont remember losing in the first round, only when u lose in the finals...
@@Schistomaisis yeah i wonder why hmm almost as if yall had to move the goalposts once lebron overtook jordan. remind me who the logo is again? LMAOOOO
@@stmaster21 MJ lost 13 straight times in the playoffs at some point.
@@SchistomaisisYou're right. I still can't get out of my mind when LeBron averaged less than Jason Terry in the 2011 NBA Finals
that banner drop lmao 💀💀💀💀💀
This dude D’Lo rolling a blunt on the sidelines 😂😂
It’s so hilarious they decided to re-sign him after that playoff run last year
he’s like a smidge better than Malik Beasley and the Lakers front office goes “here just take 18 mil from us, we’ll even make year 2 a player option” 😂😂😂
The conversations got short once the Lakers showed us who they were the whole time 😂🎉😂🎉
Squeaky!!! Squeaky!!! Need some oil!!!!! 😂😂😂
Everybody knew the lakers were gonna get swept
Na alot of people really thought they were winning this series
@@jasonwright6232like who?! They lost 9 straight before the playoffs 💀
@@jasonwright6232 a bunch of delusionals brought back to their senses by the smell of a second consecutive sweep
@@Gandalf-DZ factssss
I'm a LeBron fan and I knew it was over before it started lmao. Can't expect the same from a 39 year old than I did a 29 year old, all good with me.
Wildes feeling that Mile High baby! Denver repeating put money on it now boys.
I saw the lakers in 6 show…. Them trolling Wildes for a take he didn’t even make is HILARIOUS. 🤣😂
I gotta give Wildes all the props for the Biggie reference. That was too dope 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not even a Nuggets fan but I've been saying it for years. Jokic will go down as the best player to touch a basketball if he gets 3 more rings
I mean if people thought LeBron was the greatest (especially using the longevity arguement) how is guy who regularly owns him not the greatest?
0-11 … As a Laker fan since 1996, this is truly heartbreaking! 😭
Tin Man Mode.... LMFAO!!!
Nick Wright doesn't know basketball. Why does he have that job? Lakers are the "tin man" with no heart? Nick Wright is the scarecrow with no brain.
Close sweep
I notice all the segments on the lakers and nuggets are brief and short today on fox and espn 😂😂😂 like nobody wants to talk about it
I've been waiting for Nick to say that being down 0-3 is a good thing 😂
This show is hilarious man😂
That Biggie reference was insane 😂😂😂😂
The biggie reference is a reminder of why Wildes is the leader of the show
Wildes' Biggie reference was epic!
I wait for this all day just to see Nick 😂😂😂
Chris hysterically laughing as soon as he saw the banner made my day🤣🤣
Here we go!! I’ve been waiting for this 😂
way to fast.. if kd goes down 0-3, it will be a 12 minute segment of hate. LeHGH gets a pass
@@watchembleed8122 "HGH" = "my mind literally cannot comprehend how good bron is" lmaooooo
Jokic averaging 28/16/9 leading the Nuggets in points, rebounds, and assists but he doesn't have to do anything according to Nick Wrong.
That banner drop at the end me with tears in my eyes. Wildes is so gobsmacked that they used that pic against him that he's speechless. I knew it was going to come back and bite him I just didn't know when. 😂😂
That was a full genuine laugh out loud from Brou he absolutely loved that
Is Nick Wrong ever right? He was wrong about picking Miller in the draft as well when he was trying to take a cheap sideways swipe at MJ. I don't think dude has ever been right.
He just be wrong with the Lakers
He's never right about anything concerning basketball
@@FaceFamous He said Jokic was the worst MVP in the previous 45 years and didn't change his mind until June 2023
He’s typically right about the chiefs which I hate lol
He picked the Nuggets to beat the Clippers in 2020 during that series when almost everyone was picking the Clippers.
Jokic is a force multiplier
Best sport show ever!!! Best trio & wildes makes it work!!
Tin man mode was krazy😹😹😹😹😹
tv shows should stop hiring commentators paid by lebron to promote him like nick
lol this is the first time I've ever heard of a tin man mode.
Every day, so much of this show hinges on Wildes’ ability to be a good sport.
And he never fails to deliver.
wildes biggie reference was so good lol
At least Nick Wrong can say it's a real series now. The away team won.
As a Lakers fan since 2000 I’ll be glad when LeBron retires.
That’s crazy level hating
Your franchise was totally irrelevant before Lebron got there after Kobe broke down
He revived your franchise and got you another ring ..
@@rickypeterson740 Lol, Lebum resting on defense and 1/19 clutch FG?
@@rickypeterson740are you surprised though? LA people generally are the most ungrateful ones.
Love the show, thanks
Nick Wilde and Broussard are the perfect trio watching their takes and arguing each other 😂
am the Only one seeing this? Lakers static offense, it's insanity. 3 or 4 players standing on the perimeter without any effect on the game, no movement no opening up just standing there basic playing 1 or 2 men offense. Static defense as consequence where Denver moves better without the ball going into the paint more screens creating spaces, basic basketball. How can you coach making millions without knowing the basics ?
Because you can't coach Lebron. Lebron wants the ball in his hands, he wants to be the ball hog, he doesn't want the ball and the offense to flow because then his stays would go down and Lebron is more powerful than any of his coaches.
best banner yet
Wildes Hip Hop knowledge continues to amaze me. 👍🏽
4:48 - perfection!
Amazing banner
Sitcom level time vault comedy. Nick mentioned he hedged his bet or the moment when he had Wildes hold that up. Which is very true to form. Blessed to have been watching consistently to appreciate that moment 🫡
this is undisputedly the BEST sports analysis show in the known history of television.
Keep it up guys ❤
Laker fans shat on me for saying the in-season tournament would seem meaningless when they took an early exit from the playoffs. I've magnanimously decided not to ask for apologies.
yeah every laker fan would rather have lost the IST + get swept rather than win it + get swept. you're a genius!
@@stmaster21 yeah every Laker fan would rather have lost the (Nobody cares about in season whatever) + get swept rather than win the (Nobody cares about in season whatever) + get swept. you're a genius!
@@loudnoises5372 option a) win IST + get swept
option b) lose IST + get swept
yall really thought you did something LMAOOO smartest lakers haters
@@stmaster21 I'm saying losing 12 games in a row and getting swept 2 consecutive playoff series. The IST is nothing, not even worth thinking about.
No amount of lame "tournament" trophies are worth the materials they were created out of, when you get swept by the same team twice in the ONLY tournament that anyone will ever care about. The NBA playoffs.
I am being dead serious when I say, *I forgot the IST was a thing that even existed* until this guy brought it up 😂
@@loudnoises5372 right, so the IST isn't meaningless NOW that they're about to get swept. it's meant the same all along. try re-reading OPs comment...
Is no one going to talk about why Aaron Gordon had the game he did? Lol or the turnovers? Hmmm.. I’ll take a guess though.. somehow it’s Darvin’s fault? Maybe D Lo? That denver air? Lol hmmm.
yeah darvin DNP'd jaxon hayes to play 3 guard lineups...but i'm sure that's what you were implying! lmao
@@stmaster21 lol yup that’s it…
@@ImJustSaying9 old tiger, old brady, old gretzky, etc never had expectations CLOSE to old lebron. crazy how he *still* gets held to GOAT+ standards. really says it all. best of all time by a country mile
Lebron at 38 and 39 still trying to catch what Mike did by 35. Kareem at 38 won Finals MVP over prime Larry Bird's Celtics. Lebron has great stats but too many yikes playoffs/Finals to be GOAT
@@ImportAl lebron eclipsed jordan in 2016, sorry bud. these nuggets are 10x better than the best team jordan saw in the finals. couldn't beat bird's celtics or isiah's pistons until isiah got hurt. mj the expansion GOAT for sure tho
THE BANNER LMAO
The best Banner ever! Nick telling him he'd use it when the pic was taken makes this even funnier.
is peak bron better than peak jokic? seeing jokic and some other teams in recent years win without teaming up with the second best player and rival in their prime in their conference (Wade) like bron or KD did makes me wonder when or if at all people will revisit their ridiculous lebron #2-4 all time ranking. the east was so weak too. it's not much different than durants GS stint. Lebrons Cavs were stacked as well, same laughable conference strength. you had PG hibbert pacers and butler bulls as a "threat" basically lol. now we see jokic and nuggets dominating organically. should make you think. its a renaissance
#2-4 is ridiculous. he's #1 by a mile. these nuggets are better than every team jordan faced in the finals. the debate's been over since 2016
Peak jokic been past 2nd round once, jokic is great but don't compare him to peak lebron lol, not yet. Jokic needs 6 more elite playoff runs and 3 more rings.
@@stmaster21 just imagine jokic on those heat teams. wade is like a goated hyper version of murray. oh and why not add bosh, another top5 players in the conference. then "compete" against that conference. 🤡 3 out of the 5 best players in the conference on one team
prime lebron instead of jokic on these nuggets tho? hmmm "no help" first round or second round exit most likely because of toxicity. aaron gordon wouldnt be AG. most roleplayers would simply not be regarded as high as the public regards them now.
lebron leeches off of his teammates all time energy. wade love bosh stock diminished because of playing with lebron. yes they have rings but love for example is forgotten as the beast he was in MIN and instead remembered as a third wheel sidepiece. they are not HIM anymore. while jokic roleplayers will be remembered as legendary roleplayers instead of irrelevant "not good enough" ones. in other words, Jokic takes average-good and makes it look great. gets the best out of them. Lebron takes all time great (Wade, AD, Love, Bosh, Kyrie) and makes it look ok-ish. tanks their rank, boosts his
@@SamuelMills-ez4jo peak... peak was the word. not accumulation or all time rank
@@SamuelMills-ez4jo Lol, Jokic has won a ring without an all-star, something someone who always cried for help hasn't done
That Biggie reference was legendary. Wilds was on one today!
Lakers will become the first team ever to come back from a 3-0 deficit
Or the first team in NBA history to get swept twice in the playoffs by the same team, pick whichever it fits you😉
@0:24...Kevin Wildes' "Tin Man" mode" is hilarious!
Before the Joker, anyone saying a player is a Bird/Magic combo would be insane.
Great take!
Nick was funny ASF for dropping that banner For wildes! 😭🤣😂 "Lakers in 6
Great chemistry on set
Said it before, I'll say it again... this show is just on a different level!!!
That banner had me ☠️
Nick Le-Wrong 😂 just eat it and enjoy it
Okay just watched the end and got to say that got me. I forgot Nicks pick setting up poor Wildes lol. Killer segment.
Brou at the end losing has be dying😂😂😂 too good fellas
The banner killed Brou 😂
Tin Man Mold...
Wildes that was vicious!
🤣😂🤣😂🤦♂️
If this is the end of an era it's been a pleasure
That biggie reference was goated
Love Chris Broussard, would like to see him on another segment with Tim Legler, two sharp basketball guys talking about this great game.
These guys always put on a good post-game show😂
That banner was great and i know forsure Nick planned that escape card ever since that day
You can really hear the tears from Nick Wright's laugh.
