Bout time Collin I been hearing you trash Denver all year too as if they weren't really contenders at least you can call it as you see it sir I give you a hard time a lot but this is why I keep watching everything you put out lol…
Jason lost a lot of credibility with his biased ridiculous delusional opinions all series. Lakers up 4-0 on moral victories tho
I live in Ohio and have been a diehard Cavs fan forever! To me Lebron is still a Cav and a MVP! But I’m a realist too! Jokic got robbed out of a three peat!
Y'all gotta stop with your CP3 valuable crap! Dude has never came through for any team, has lost big series leads and can't stay healthy so plz stop with cp3! How is he relevant to even talk about right now?
Jason’s knowledge of the game is impeccable.
I can't wait to see Jimmy and joker
Honestly my first time seeing Denver is the last two series. Find me a GM that would not take Jokic as their first pick as of now in this league, and that is a GM that should be fired. He just does all the work and everything like a old school player. He's like the strongest wolve in the pack.
Us this a failure ?
Giannis terrified to go to free throw line?
Here we go again with the rim protection argument.
Do the Warriors have rim protection?
Rui for kyrie 😂😂😂
It's close because of the fouls and free throws lol.
They need kyrie
Good to see you guys are finally coming to your senses but it would have been a lot more impactful if you would have done this before they actually won but it's hard for stat guys to understand intangibles isn't it? Neither of you gave the Nuggets a chance, LBR so now I have a full day of podcasters apologizing, doing damage control, acting like they picked them to begin with. Should be fun!
NBA is in full panic at a Miami/Denver series and no Lakers/Boston, but what two teams are the best watch? Miami/Denver and not even close. Two well coached real teams!
jason always got something with jokic, he simply dont like him, and i think this is some personal beef, i remember a video of him saying jokic was like the 6 best player in the beggining of the season
Jason doesn’t agree with most of the things Colin is saying, he’s the guest, so he has to nod in affirmation
Mark Jackson shouldn't even be allowed to say Jokic name.
Didn't even have him on his MVP ballot 😆😆
Not even good enough for 3rd place?
Ok Mark what a great bball mind 😆
First comments about Boston and Miami so he makes the lakers sweep feel reasonable. Media tricks/lies
Youre Saying This Now….Ive Always Said That Boy Raw as Fk…..YOUR OPINION DOESNT CARRY WATER..BUT ITS YOURS..HE KILLED YOUR LAKERS AND NOW YOU WANTS TO VALIDATE HIM😅😅 COWHERD YOURE BECOMING REPETITIVE😅😅
Come on little respect for those who voted for Embiid I am. Jokic fan but that was the season MVP thst Embiid won, this is the WCF which MVP awarded to Jokic.
Jokic could have definitely WON a 3rd MVP in my opinion. Joel Embiid was exposed during these playoffs, with his big LAZY, do it when it doesn't count looking ass… smh
Denver and Miami should be a great series…
Better hope Jimmy doesn’t hear this talk about Joker being the best player.
They should have run more through Brogdon though rather than Smart. Tatum IS as good as Jimmy, but Jimmy has a different approach and mindset and is cool in Playoff and 4th quarters. Boston lacks leadership and coaching. THAT is the problem.
D lo and AD…. 🤦🏾♂️ bums
AR isn’t in his prime yet. He’s too young
This was the one team i knew for a a fact would absolutely destroy the Lakers. I’m surprised that these 4 games were close honestly
Jason had to be sick hearing Colin suggest Anthony Davis, the “front runner for best player in the world”, being traded for RJ Barrett and Julius Randle. 😂
I was telling that for a couple of years. Jokic is making everyone better. The dude was making Bill Burton, Monte Moriss, Austin Rivers, and Campaco looking great 😂😂😂
The Lakers should try and get Jaylen Brown from Boston and move AD somehow.
Collin STILL DISRESPECTING the Heat. “ they’re playing completely over their skeez “ literally went to the east conference finals 3/4 last yrs
Perkins made the mvp about race and you propaganda networks pushed the race shit
AD is a fantastic defender, but I've never seen a big miss so many point-blank layups in my life. This shit was so frustrating to watch. Why dosent he just go up strong and secure the points?
If I was LeBron I'm saying F and going to the clippers or GS.
I’d much rather the Lakers find away to get Malcolm Brogdon than to find away to get Kyrie Irving.
Collin is the king of PRISONER OF THE MOMENT 😂😂 He really said CP3 was more valuable to the Rockets than Harden 🤔🤷🏾♂️ what???!
i love jason, but in conference finals is 0 for 7 in predictions, wow
Colin, I'm a Warrior fan but rooting for Denver. But I gotta say you're wrong when you say Denver has more shooters than Miami. Heat gas more CONSISTANT 3pt shooters than Denver. But…we shall see!
A Anthony Davis & Jaylen Brown trade. Which team says no?
A.d lost cause you expect a guy who 30 years old to turn it around and start being available 70+ games yeah that not a.d. 😅
Colin gets it wrong a lot. Neither here nor there. We love him for the entertainment value, not accuracy.
Where he got it right was the MVP votes were anti Jokic more than pro Embiid.
