Kyrie Irving 'promotes' himself to a management role for Nets next season | NBA | FIRST THINGS FIRST

- Despite a disappointing end to a rocky season, Kyrie Irving says he's sticking with the Brooklyn Nets... but not just as a player. During a presser after the Nets were soundly swept out of playoff contention, Kyrie divulged that he sees himself more in a managerial role next season, and alongside Kevin Durant and actual manager Sean Marks, he intends to manage the franchise. Nick Wright tells Chris Broussard and Kevin Durant why the idea of Kyrie managing the team is ridiculous, and not what he wants to hear from the star after the Nets went 0-4.

I hate they don't talk about the celtics they only talk about the nets after losing smh
Nash ain’t deserve to coach anyway
Always remember this man will truly argue you down that the earth is flat so when you talk to somebody like that you just have to know that they are overcome with delusions of Grandor and what’s actually the most sad about it is that Katie and his ever wanting need to be known as independent and thinking for himself actually did the ultimate sheep move and followed kyries idiotic lead
Lol
The NBA is rigged
Irving has imploded more franchises than he's elevated. People need to stop being so mesmerized by his basketball skills, and look at him for what he brings to a team.
Exactly. He's an inescapable distraction that snowballs out of control. And remember not to long ago, everybody blamed lebron and said '...kyrie didn't even want to play with him.' Smh
well the Nets certainly werent gonna win without Kyrie, He has all time skills, and teams will give you as many chances as they can with his skill level.
Art Vanderlay : PREACH, TEACH, OPEN THE EYES OF EACH 💯
Yea he’s trash
“But he has a bag”
I disagree with Chris Kyrie isn't the only person who can stop Kyrie. According to the series Smart, Tatum and Brown were able to stop Kyrie.
Don’t forget the jab also 😆
😂😂😂. You funny.
@@viperguyz oh yeah that stopped him for hella long😂
Tatum was a little busy clamping KD, but that’s a good point
Lol saying things just to say it. Ain’t do nothing significant in the playoffs since 2016.
It’s 2022.
If I'm the Nets I keep my mouth shut, let him opt out, and then wish him luck in his future endeavors.
That’s not their choice if KD wants Kyrie he’s not going anywhere
Hit him with that WWE release statement🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@deesee2051 kd should never be allowed to make a management decision again after making us trade jarret and Carrie for half a year of harden
@@cheetosleopard9861 so many picks and great talent that’s doing way better lol that’s a shame
Thts a fact, they won't, because they don't have the guts, but thats exactly what they should do
The signs of Kyrie being trouble were there when he said that him and kd don't need coaching
And KD was right beside him encouraging and agreeing. It’s on BOTH of them
@@afrofree4950 and now apparently they dont need a GM/owner either... lol
@@afrofree4950 considering they were just swept, I'd say he was hysterically wrong. EVERYONE needs a coach. Jordan and Kobe needed Phil Jackson, Duncan and Ginobilli needed Popovich, Ewing and Starks needed Riley, and etc. Behind every truly great player is a great coach.
@@projectgraham414But what do they know, they also believed the world is spherical. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
🎯
The word better and skilled are not the same. Thank you Nick for distinguishing the difference. Jrue Holiday is a better player than Kyrie. Point, Blank, Period.
He isn’t a better player the only argument is Jrue is more reliable in terms of staying on the court
yup. Jrue Holiday is an ok passer/facilitator, takes shots when open and or necessary, plays intense defense, and doesn't disrupt the offensive flow of the game. Irving is a better iso/hero ball player and a somewhat better shooter. Give me Holiday.
@@kingjaydex7464 No, Nick said "better player", and it's true. I see it all the time, a guy on the court who is so skilled, but because of his attitude and selfishness, he isn't a winner. Good players provide much more than just good shooting and ball handling.
y'all don't know bball, it's not even close. I'll take Kyrie any day or jrue. buckets when games. I'd add jrue to the roster of Kyrie and KD to keep things under control but not look for him to be my saving grace.
@@JVmusiccTV Yea, that setup has worked very well for the Nets, huh?
The way Broussard said “Esoteric way.” has me dying. Those two morons get swept after declaring how much better they are 😂
On God I’m crying laughing at work
He made me look up the definition it was so good 🤣 🔥
Hilarious 💀
3 years. No ring. Failure. Respect King James
Or even a conference finals like bro lmaooo
Lebron didn’t make the playoffs
@@Marcus-ge5lw yeah, in year 19 though... His teams once went to the Finals for almost a decade straight. He's an older player now with a star playing alongside him who he actually played better than this season despite being a much more seasoned and older player in terms of basketball years. Come to think of it Lebron James played better than a lot of star players this season. He just happened to not make the playoffs this season two years after winning a ring.
@@Marcus-ge5lw In those 3 years Kyrie was in Brooklyn, Lebron won a ring.
@@recoil53 And LeBron made the Finals in 2018 without him.
I agree with Nick 100%. I'll take a reliable and consistent player like Jrue Holiday every time all day. Jrue plays defense, shoots 3's and is a good playmaker as well.
Shiii get me a Bobby Portis give me a second round pick or any g leaguer with less skill but at the end of the day any coach wants drive, they’re hungry for a chance to win and they enjoy what they love
Julius Adeoye that's why if I was the nets
I would go after jalen Brunson of the mavericks Puts up solid numbers keeps his mouth shut and plays the whole game like the 1st quarter. Also he is looking for a deal similar to the deal schroeder turned fown last year.
@@leonardomoore1868 Brunson about to secure the bag soon. He might actually be a better fit in Brooklyn than kyrie. To bad KD Issa beta male 💅🏾
@@leonardomoore1868 As a Mavs fan, I would rather take a 50 mil/yr cap hit for 5 years than to let Kyrie derail the organization, let alone to keep Brunson.
He turns up and keeps his mouth shut, that alone makes him a better player
Kyrie told Boston he was all in too 🤣
Kyrie quit in the playoffs for them too.
Kyrie is team nba cancer
This show is just getting better and better. NW's face at the beginning of the clip had me dying
me*
@@gumbz_ke fixed. Thanks
Facts 😂
Could you imagine if Lebron said this after a loss?😂
The internet would explode 😂😂
And bron has re-invigarated three franchises
People would’ve told lebron to retire quit playing basketball 🏀
He wuda been bbq'd chicken!
Omg there would another pandemic 😂😂😂
I liked Nick's take on Holiday vs Kyrie but what I really like was his comments about this show. I agree the show is currently the best it has ever been. Broussard definitely > Marshall and Carter. I love the addition of Wildes to the team. This is probably an unpopular opinion and I'm not sure I'm quite there yet myself, but I might like First Things First more than Undisputed. I REALLY like shannon probably more than ANY other sports personality but overall this team might be better.
You mean First Things First, not First Take. And I totally agree. I just wish they would all get in a studio together instead of doing the split screen thing.
@@Lexyboogie oh god yes! That’s embarrassing. I’m going to have to edit that. Also, I liked Max 🤷♂️
same here. Marshall was the worst. Carter was okay but he was a bit boring. Broussard's takes + Wildes antics makes this a great show. Jenna does her job the best as well and compliments the team.
I miss when chris carter was on the show…plus back then Jenna was looking like a snack…she went full butch now
Skip is the GOD FATHER of these shows.
Skip even made Stephen A watchable, when he left everyone realized SAS just yells at people.
Skip and Shannon's popularity allowed First Things First to blossom.
Skip's shows are MJ, This Show is Kobe ! Both of them AMAZING but the first is the better, and I love me some Nick and Bru bromance
Kyrie left LeKing in Cleveland thinking, *"I am not your underling. I can be my own king. I deserve my castle"* Look at him now?🤷🏾♂️ People underestimate the leadership role required from the floor Captain to win a Championship. It's not only the skills level in the team but the impact the leader has on the whole team. *Lebron is a born leader*
Chris is talking circles. A reliable talented player is LIGHT YEARS better than a skilled no-show
I used to think Broussard was a good analyst until I started paying attention to his picks. He pretends to be the NBA expert
Much agreed. Preach! I liken it to Randy Moss. Hall of fame talent and skills. Not a hall of fame player imo because he didn't give his all every season he played. Took seasons off lol.
Kyrie is depressed, and has no energy. Kevin Love and Demar are open about depression, so they got treatment.
@@johnstanton1515 He’s definitely a good analyst. Go watch the best team ever debate he had with Nick. Nick makes an amazing case, and Chris with his history of the game just blows Nick away. He clearly knows what he’s talking about
Nick Wright can get on my nerves with his points and claims like LeBron is the GOAT, but his take on Holiday vs Kyrie completely makes sense and agreeable. Kyrie has better 'individual' skills - which is basically offense, but when it comes to defense, scrappiness, and contributing to winning and showing leadership, Holiday is the clear choice for a point guard.
Or even just being able to play cause no one has considered what happens if they put the mandate back in effect at some point. Not that I think they will but if they do he's not playing
@@themaker2149 The greatest ability is availablity.
@@parkerxjr true but you know injuries are one thing with kyrie he could not play for any reason even getting out of bed on the wrong side
@James Graham So basically LeBron creates the mold and trends for today's NBA, you admit to it and now that he's old you get to act like it never happened. Hate him or love him saying he's not top 5 just discredits whatever you say. GOAT? Debatable... Not top 5? Hater.
@James Graham who you got ahead of him? let’s here it.
Kyrie and Westbrook on the same team would be a great reality show 🤣🤣 the most delusionals players last season.
At least Westbrook showed up to play though
Lakers were better off Westbrook not showing up tbh💀
Westbrook is past his prime. Can’t blame the guy for declining with age. And Westbrook has always been try hard, gotta respect it
Westbrook got too much of the blame imo ppl acting like he lost all those games by himself but the fact is they would've been trash with or without him
@@brycehammerton4542 not arguing that. But that exit quotes tell that he doesnt believe he's declining...hard. thats why he's delusional also
“Dependability is more important the ability” -Bill Bellichek
Yup as they say, availability is the greatest ability
So kd was the gm this year and put this team together and picked Steve nash and got swept in the first round. Funny how only Lebron gets the Legm treatment. Keep that same energy for kds failed attempt at being the gm
@Honest Westbrick Fan #1 sure thing bud
@@johncena4096 His name is honest Westbrook fan ….don’t waste you breath or thumb taps lol
Wait who wrote this? I can't see the OP
@@j.c.2486 lol exactly
Bruh 🤦🏾♂️ he didn’t put the team together
There is something wrong with kyrie Irving in the head seriously 🤦♂️
Facts
Lol that dude is disconnected from reality
For real I've always said that so thanks for your comment
It was Duke.. coach K left him loose
kyrie never wanted to be coached by Nash now he wants to be part management of Brooklyn nets he thinks it's all about him
No y’all think he thinks it’s all about him lol
@@avantcampbell9532 What’s the evidence for the contrary?
Bro I've met people who were exactly like Kyrie. They thought they were smarter than they actually are. Delusional, thinks the world is flat. Thinks the world is ran by the illuminati. He's crazy, but he has money, so it's all good.
when is Broussard going to have a long conversation with himself about being a better NBA analyst..
@@avantcampbell9532 because he thinks so
Nick used their own job attendence to make a very valid point.
He SNAPPED! lol
This show is definitely the best it's ever been! Nick, Brou, Wildes combo is undefeated & Carter and Marshall are NOT missed
Carter and Marshall were both insufferable for different reasons. I'm glad they aren't there.
A great show for people don't understand anything about basketball but loves gossiping 💀💀💀
It’s hilarious looking back on Kyrie’s comments about coaching because in this very series, great coaching and game planning from Boston got them swept
When you think that you know everything.... Kyrie is a great example....
Facts, both of you.
@@sirineuantonio1622 fr kyrie is like Kenny on tnt. I swear he tries to be more intelligent than shaq, Chuck, and ernie. That guy who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room and says something contrary just to be 'outside the box.'🙄
Nick Wright is the most sensible mainstream American sports opinionators. He should definitely get an NBA MVP vote. I think he has the best opinions in the mainstream.
I couldn’t agree more
Oh please. Nick is 95% terrible a s 100% terrible if the discussion is Lebron. Today he got his 5%
He’s the biggest LeBron fan in the media. He’s biased in his takes concerning LeBron Other than that, he’s good
@@manan612 The entire Media is the biggest MJ fan. That's why they hate whenever Nick exposes Jordan's flaws with fact.
Jrue >>> Kyrie
Best ability is availability. Mentally or physically, Ky is rarely available. The defensive contributions of Jrue are really underrated
Stop
@@jasonau427 start
Valid debate lol......Jrue done more lately than Kyrie.......at this we need to realize individual talent dont guarantee championships
Jrue isn’t better than Kyrie but I’d rather Jrue because Kyrie is just annoying.
@@TwanTries Jrue has NOT done more than Kyrie lately. Jrue’s TEAMS have gone farther than Kyrie’s lately. Yall just say ANYTHING on this app.
Wildes kills me. LOL. He is always on the verge of full out laughter!!! LOLOL
He bold af to say this. We all know Bron played same role wherever he went but at least he didn't say it as blatantly as kyrie 🤣
Exactly
And I’m not even a bron fan like that but if bron said this he would at least be justified because he’s won a ring on every team he’s gone to
At least Bron has the credibility to do it. Kyrie isn’t even close to having credibility with any franchise.
And at least LeBron has the rings to prove it. He whiffed on Westbrook like everybody has but at least LeBron has rings. Kyrie has a ring because LeBron got him there.
@@Lexyboogie if anything it takes away from bron credibility but most of you aren't ready for that conversation 🥱 but he is better than kyrie I agree on that.
I really hate to say this, but it's indisputable now: Kyrie is now in the exact same situation Westbrook is in. Both have dwindling teams interested in them, if any at all. Both have more values in their expiring contract than their personalities or even skills. Both can only stay in the current team if their more prominent teammates allow them to. And finally, both could be in the NBA wilderness in less than 2 years if they're not careful. Allen Iverson only played 14 seasons and left at age 34, Marbury only played 13 seasons and left at age 31.
Kyrie play is way better at this point though
@@doablefilms9380 better than Westbrook or better than AI and Marbury? AI went from 26.4/7.1/2 in 2008 to out of the league in 2010. I may be a pessimist but I'm really starting to see Kyrie and Westbrook following the same trend curve.
Westbrook is out when he contract expires.
He's no use to a rebuilding team as the Vet to show leadership.
Too expensive for a tanking team and gets in the way of letting new guys develop.
What contending team wants him?
He might accidentally win a game for a tanking team.
This is all not true
Westbrook may not have been a good fit for the Lakers but at least he gave you 💯 effort EVERY time and he didn’t mess as many games
The delusions never stop in crooklyn 🤣🤣🤣
Remember when everyone was clapping for kyrie when leaving lebron.. let that be a learning lesson.
Is Kyrie even more delusional than I even thought? Apparently, last year he decided he didn’t really need a Head Coach and this year he doesn’t need a General Manager any more. He can do all. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Yes, he is delusional. But the Nets knew what they were getting. I guarantee you, this wouldn't fly with Pat Riley in Miami.
I'm a Celtics fans and I saw firsthand what a headcase Kyrie was. The guy is poison. If Kyrie doesn't opt in this offseason the Nets should say bye bye. I hope they ignore my advice and sign him to a 4-5 yr supermax.
I agree with Broussard the Nets do need to take control of their organization.
Jrue Holiday is definitely a better player. It’s pretty close, but just like there are some things Kyrie can do that Jrue can’t, there are many things Jrue can do that Kyrie can’t. But overall he’s just more impactful towards winning 5-on-5 basketball games than Kyrie it’s as simple as that. If the question was who’s better at 1 on 1 that’s completely different
To me, all the things jrue has over him are more important than the things kyrie has over jrue. Lockdown defense is more important than cool dribbling
I’m not sure about that, I know Kyrie just had a horrible series, but I still think Kyrie is better. It’s a lot closer than it frankly should be with kyrie’s skill, but I think Kyrie might still be better. If they’re both off, jrue is more impactful cause he plays great D, but it seems like everyone forgot that in the nets bucks series last year, KD and role players nearly beat the bucks with one of the largest contributing factors being jrue not being able to hit anything and still taking horrible heat check shots. If jrue was atleast shooting decent or just not taking horrible shots, that series probably wouldn’t have gone 7 games, and watching those first 2 games, if Kyrie was in, the bucks might’ve got swept
@@bryanfoster326 It’s not about the series, it’s just in general. Yeah I guess if kyrie made all his shots the Bucks might have gotten swept, but he’s extremely inconsistent so the Bucks won the series. Also if Jrue wasn’t on the floor the Bucks wouldn’t have won, and regardless of taking a bad shot every once in a while he’s still better. Kyrie does that all the time anyway
@@scutifr he was taking lots of bad shots, it wasn’t on occassion, it was mind boggling how a dude who was shooting 26% from 3 was taking so many pull up 3’s even with hands in face. I wanted Giannis to beat KD last year, and I was tearing my hair out watching his shot choice. Kyrie isn’t really that inconsistent, I’ve been saying it for a bit, this was a horrible matchup for the nets, Tatum figured out KD last year and was shitting on him, and if the DPOY didn’t have to split time trying to guard harden and Kyrie and instead could just zero in on Kyrie, he could give him trouble. Kyrie may take bad shots, but it’s bad shots like curry takes bad shots, they’re bad for most people, not bad for them. What’s a bad shot for jrue is a good shot for Kyrie. I could see it being close, and theres definitely teams where jrue would be better for, but I could see Kyrie being the 2nd best player on a championship, cause he already has been. Couldn’t say the same for jrue
@@bryanfoster326 I feel like I guess it’s just really subjective whos allowed to take certain shots because Jrue always shoots above 26% from 3, so underperforming in a series shouldn’t stop him from shooting. That would make the bucks way easier to guard, he just has to make shots. I think Jrue could be the second best player on a championship team, especially if he had prime Lebron plus if the East still had no competition
What's the evidence that Kyrie is better than Marcus Smart? DPOY is better than any individual accolade that Kyrie has won.
You make a good point but I’m sure if we’re all being honest with ourselves we all know Kyrie is a level above Smart.
Stop Kyrie is much better that’s just hate talking
What’s the evidence? The ability to see through your eyes? Are you blind?
@@lolunderstated533 At Iso scoring. Not much else.
@@Piper0000 Kyrie is a ball stopper and can’t play point guard
Jrue is better than Kyrie overall. If Kyrie not scoring he’s useless. Jrue can affect the game more than just scoring, he plays D and will take the big shot if need be
He's also a better facilitator.
@@cryptaku3404 true!
I gotta ask, does Kyrie have some super secret compromising photos of some of the media?
No matter how big of a disaster he is they still defend him. Nick is absolutely right of the kind of mess Kyrie brings to a team and still Broussard has to jump in and defend Kyrie, it’s astonishing.
What?!?! Media gets on kyrie every chance they get
@@hansiseymour9388 Cry Me a River
Jrue holiday can go to a bad team and average 25 7 and 5 in his sleep too.🤦🏾♂️ I definitely get it Nick kyrie not that better and in today's NBA your point has to be a defender to win really your backcourt period has to be able to sit down.
Look at Finals teams and their main rotation can score and defend. Almost all of them to different degrees.
Kyrie, Ben and Kahwai are something. They don’t play, aren’t seriously injured, but manage to collect salaries.
Kawhi is the most overrated player in NBA history.
They are the Divas of NBA
Kawhi is nowhere near overrated.
Refer to 2019 playoffs run for reference
@@sirm.a.r.s4640 Kawhi barely beat the Embiid-Simmons Sixers on a lucky bounce in Game 7, Giannis choked hard in the ECF, and KD and Klay got hurt in the Finals (and Raptors still almost lost). Why did that impress you?
Isn’t Kawhi injured though? Don’t bunch him with the Nets boys
Durant was in Golden State talking about how they needed to do things differently, like running more Iso. As if they hadn’t already won a title and won 73 games and made another Finals, before he got there.
Where is your source? KD didn't ask them to run more ISO. That doesn't even make any sense. Steve Kerr ran a lot more ISO in KDs last year there than he should. KD was upset with Nash running more ISO instead of playing the brand of basketball that worked. They were becoming too KD centric.
@@DReppin2009 ""The motion offense we run in Golden State, it only works to a certain point. We can totally rely on our system for maybe the first two rounds. Then the next two rounds we're going to have to mix in individual play. We've got to throw teams off, because they're smarter in that round of playoffs."
"So now I have to dive into my bag, deep, to create stuff on my own, off the dribble, isos, pick-and-rolls, more so than let the offense create points for me."
@@segagenesis7708 but that's not an admission of one thing over the other, but rather both ideas working concurrently. You're right in the sense that he mentioned working outside of the motion offense, but it wasn't one preference over the other. He was just stating the obvious, and he was right because teams had no answer to his ISO in the Finals.
The problem with Kyrie is he doesn’t fit with any team unless he just does the job he’s being paid to do to the best of his ability. He doesn’t do that. He thinks it’s better when he’s putting his two cents into every conversation out there instead of just focusing on his actual job. He knows best and you can’t tell him nothing. It’s rubbish.
That’s what happens when you’re a raging narcissist and megalomaniac. You think you know everything and everyone else is the problem. Kyrie is a textbook embodiment of the Dunning Kruger effect. He has at best, average intelligence and thinks he’s some profound philosopher and is entitled to perform tasks way beyond his abilities.
Fact
As a Boston fan, Kyrie is giving me so much entertainment lately... these guys had me laughing so hard. Keep going.
💀
Because this meltdown was expected from him. Kyrie ditched Boston, beefs with Boston fans, drags his feet on the Celtics logo, just to get swept alongside KD by the Celtics. Poetic justice
NICK WAS SPITTIN' this whole segment lmao
3 years wit the nets so far and they been nothing but a disappointment.. and alot of yall dont wanna hold them to the same critique as you would others!
lol nba fines have short term memory it’s so sad, nets the last 3 years have been riddled with injuries but y’all like to remember what happens yesterday and the next yesterday etc.
Leadership is a talent, skill & gift & neither KD nor Kyrie has that talent, strength or skill...
First year KD was hurt all season. Last season Kyrie was hurt. And this year Kyrie sat out majority of the year
I can see kyrie going into the office and sitting in joes seat and saying "aight this what we are going to do🤣...... The man's ego is out of this world.
burst out laughing when Broussard said " Esoteric" 🤣🤣😅😅
Kyrie is a HAS BEEN…..media needs to stop calling him “great”.
He’s good, but he’s not that guy 💯
Stop
KDs and Kyries relationship is what drove Harden away, dude could see that KD would always side with Kyrie over the good of the team, even when Harden was complaining abt Nash, KD didn't care
Kyrie is that entitled dude that nobody can tell him anything whatsoever
Wildes smirk during this segment was great, said a lot in itself lol
Notice Nick and Wildes both react to Chris at the same time in the same way at 4:50 😂😂
Kyrie is so talented, it's sad to see him totally meltdown mentally and waste the back 9 of his career.
Good thing Brandon isn't still here or he'd say some crazy sh** like Kyrie deserves to be part owner and that this season was actually a success.
Nick Wright be looking like David luiz and Sergio busquets in the thumbnail
That thumbnail is everything 🤣🤣
Broussard misunderstood what Nick was saying. As annoying as Nick is at times, here he's on point. I couldn't care less how skilled you are if you're unreliable. I'll take a guy witj half Kyrie's talent but who's locked in everyday of the week.
That makes him a better player.
Broussard is a celebrity superstar worshipper. The "better player" to him is whoever has the most IG followers and is talked about the most in sports media.
New NBA rule will only allow one psychopath per team
Nets are two over the limit .
Leaving steph klay & kerr for kyrie and nash is kinda crazy 🤯
When there's a leadership vacuum, players sometimes step up to try to fix the problem.
Nick impersonating kyrie " I think I know what to do with the second round pick"
I'm dead lol starts at 2:15
I bet if Smart were a Net, and Kyrie were a Celtic, Nets would not have gotten swept - so maybe Smart is better than Kyrie.
Smart is just a way better teammate. Not even close.
When the Celtics started of really bad in first part of season it was smart who called them out for trying to play iso hero ball so he is a leader
@@johnbeardshall2898 I remember in 1988 in baseball, the Dodgers acquired Kirk Gibson, and in spring training they pranked him and put tar around the inner rim of his cap. Kirk ripped into the entire team and told them he was there to win and not to f around. They never looked back and won the chip.
This didn't age well for Kyrie.🤣
Anyone who defends Kyrie at this point is as delusional and needs professional help as much as him.
For once Nick got it right! The best ability is availablity. He's not consistent or reliable.
And people wonder how Steph Curry's teammates are always happy, having fun, and thriving and the entire organization/coaching staff does nothing but praise who he is on and off the court. It's because they have an actual leader who doesn't have an ego, leads by example, and is willing to do what it takes to make things work better for the team not for himself. I can't ever imagine KD or Kyrie being the type to come off the bench for nobody not even their momma's🥴 Steph has a totally different mindset than these guys, they can never be on his level mentally and he's teaching that young group of guys he has over their the same thing and it shows.
3:02 the way he says “way” lmao

As per usual, when discussing Kyrie's game, the media only looks at offense. Guy is a horrible defender which is HALF OF THE GAME. Not only that, but he is not a great passer (which is another skill) and his offball movement isn't great either. So don't come at me with he's the most skilled guy to ever play. No, that is factually incorrect for the skills that he lacks that I listed above. So in a sense, Jrue is more skilled than Kyrie and a better player in my opinion. Kyrie hasn't done much to winning in his career. Cavs were horrible when he was the number one. He made an upcoming celtics team deevolve when he got there. His winning percentage while he has played with the nets isnt great... I just don't understand how people miss these glaring examples that indicts Kyrie's game.
The Celtics and Nets actually had better winning percentages when he was out than when he played.
What a CRASH AND BURN DUMPSTER FIRE THE BROOKLYN NETS SEASON WAS And Mercfully came to An End Thanks to the BOSTON CELTICS Last night 😅😂😅😂 They Need To be Embarrassed about their Season, INCLUDING THIS FIRST ROUND SERIES, Hope they ENJOY WATCHING THE REST OF THE PLAYOFFS WITH THE REST OF US ❕
Being a Wisconsinite and Milwaukee Bucks fan I shouldn't be saying this but I'm so happy the Boston Celtics slam dunked Durant , Irving and the Nets ,
4-0 .
Kyrie = Aomine
“the only person who can beat me, is me”
Aomine can ball, and will willed himself into the basket.
8:30 Nailed it! He vastly over estimates his own intelligence and ability off the court.
Kyrie: "We didn't gel this year for some reason. I now promote myself to management. I also will work on becoming Mayor of NY so that vaccine mandates don't ruin our chances of gelling next year. Vote for Kyrie!"
nick’s jrue take ruffled feathers in real time lmao
And the Nets management is clueless enough to give Kyrie that long term supermax contract.
Don’t quit your day job kyrie
You want some good TV? Let's get Kyrie and Westbrick on a team🤣
Shots at Brandon Marshall lmao
Good point Chris!
I find it funny how so many hate on Nick, but he's LITERALLY ALWAYS RIGHT about his picks and breaking down players and the game. Like Broussard but he's constantly wrong along with other experts and ex players. Give him credit
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wildes @6:50. Great comedic timing lmao
Nets have to choose between Nash and Kyrie. They will have to rebuild. Best without Kyrie.
Between? How about neither?
Imagine being the parents of flat earth/I could be our coach-guy lmao
Yeah, I’d be very very rich and extremely proud that that my son made it in the NBA. Your parents proud of what you’ve become?
@@TC-wg1gx lol I’m doing fine though I don’t think you actually care, clearly you’ve missed my point so I’ll spell it clear for you - this guy doesn’t have psychosis or cognitive issues, he’s the 2022 nba version of just a delusional spoiled brat
There is nothing better than this duo talking basketball. Awesome segment
I mean, as long as they're afraid to cut him or potentially hurt KD's feelings, Nets ownership deserves everything they're getting with this circus.
He's all in because he wants the huge contract.
Kyrie is a very skilled basketball player, but he's a certified nutjob. It's the flat earth thing, the anti-vax thing, moon landing and whatnot. I bet he's one of those people who extract energy from rocks and always check the position of Mars before stepping outside. Labor is not his forte (only two seasons with 60+ games), his teams rarely succeed, but he somehow thinks he's the ultimate basketball weapon. He could be. He could have been.
Wilds sounding like Better Call Saul with his half-baked, albeit half-hearted, Kyrie defense.
Lol dude said I’d and kyrie see basketball in some kind of “esoteric” way
Kyrie the most delusional guy I ever seen in my life
Kyrie is dumber than a second coat of paint.
Kyrie is an intelligent individual, he knows how to stay trending‼️😂😂😂😂
That doesn't make him "intelligent" He is rich and famous. So, his stupidity will always be entertaining to the masses.
Thank you...
Remember KD and Kyrie wanted Deandre Jordan and then Blake Griffin and Lemarcus Aldrich. They have the same GM skill of Lebron. Get All Stars out of their prime and expect it to work.
@King Woochi Well before this year he got players in their prime like Love/AD. Getting Carmelo and Russ and Rondo and Dwight as ur Main Squad when they are all mid 30's prob not a great idea.
BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Nick hates everybody who's presence possibly dims Lebron's greatness.
