I was ON THE MONEY with this prediction (unfortunately) 😭
I posted on Instagram a couple of months ago right when the Sixers signed Kyle Lowry or were rumored to be about to sign Kyle Lowry and it said I would not be surprised if Kyle Lowry is in the Sixers starting lineup once he’s acclimated with the team Nick nurse loves him they want to ring together and you know how these relationships can fog rational thought processes among people in these positions I predicted this on the money and at the time at the time it sounded crazy people were like he’s not going to Kyle Lowry’s not going to be a starter he’s going to come off the bench he’s not going to start well look at some of these comments man this is just so much fun for me because I was just I was it ended up being so accurate uh here’s some of the comments man um look at this I’m all for it won’t happen in LOL uh well it did uh no he won’t well yes he did um nurse will probably try it but if he doesn’t work if it doesn’t work he’ll change course well he didn’t uh if he starts we will be home early once again Carlile capital investment absolutely money on that prediction uh he will be what Mike connley is to the Grizzlies for us your takes age like bananas in the sun except this take was 100% accurate what are you talking about man well that doesn’t make any sense but he jumped the gun on that one didn’t he so I I was like listen I think Kyle Lowry’s going to start because Nick nurse loves him right and then you go and you look at uh the playoffs and you look at Kyle Lowry’s minutes and numbers in the playoffs and look man in the entire New York Knicks series Kyle Lowry started all six games and people were saying look nurse is going to play him too many minutes he’s too old he’s going to burn out game one 18 points a plus six game two eight points of plus six game three nine points of plus 11 game four seven points a plus one and the burnout happened and it happened so fast game five goose egg plus two game six goose egg minus [Music] 9 he started all six playoff games he was solid the first couple and then man he burned out like hell because he’s 38 years old and Nick Nur should have known you canot play a 38-year old player that many minutes in the playoffs some reason he didn’t know that yeah that was you know that was my prediction uh with the Kyle Lowry thing and it just just ended up being completely accurate shout out to RJ member in the chat 210 in here hit the like button yeah give me 200 there’s 226 people in here right now give me 226 likes man uh and give me your takes in the chat man anything else you want to talk about throw it at me uh I find this to be interesting Jeff Van Gundy last season was fired by ESPN and it they they they they categorized it as it was uh hour ago uh the NBA reportedly didn’t appreciate Jeff Van gundy’s criticism of the leagues officiating and complained about it to ESPN per Andrew Marchin the Athletics senior writer um though the NBA did not like van gundy’s criticism of its officiating and complained about it to ESPN there is no proof that League ordered his banishment one concern ESPN had according to Executives briefed on their decision-making was that Van Gundy would jump back into coaches is bull that’s [ __ ] the NBA is in big trouble the NBA as a business is in big trouble because they they don’t understand what the issue is the issue is officiating this season and playoffs has been one of the worst officiated NBA seasons I’ve ever seen it feels like the referees don’t know the rules they they they try to randomly Implement [ __ ] the referees can’t even get challenges right they review plays watch it in super slowmo and still make the wrong call they they they make things up on the Fly marginal contact other things like that it just none of it makes any sense then they try to implement a flopping rule where officials are going to be able to call technical fouls for flopping and I’m like bro if they don’t even know what a flop is because they consistently Get Fooled by players flopping how are they going to call a flop technical foul that doesn’t make any sense and people were like when they first announced that people were like thank God they’re finally going to get flopping out of the game no they’re not cuz they can’t do it cuz they they can’t make the call right in the first place NBA officiating is absolutely terrible

I had a prediction about Nick Nurse and Kyle Lowry when the Sixers first signed Lowry that ended up being accurate.

Scared the shit out of me. Thought this was BREAKING NEWS: Lowry signed to 4 year stupidity money deal 🤪
The flopping rule is: no flop no call.
Too bad Nurse didn’t hound whoever is running the Sixers for Siakam…and here’s the kicker,the Celtics have our point guard Holiday..
That 4/8 from 3 was the highlight and it went downhill from there.
The Sixers burn out the players because there’s no balance of points like the smart teams have…so it looks like (Nurse gets outcoached,not really,)he had nobody who he could trust…except for two and a half players..Sixers aren’t going anywhere until they address this issue with whomever is running this team.
Slow off season…picking one of the few the predictions you were right on and gloating about it…really a video about weak ass Kyle Lowry starting
Run it…keep pounding the rumors, maybe whomever is running the Sixers will read your vlogs and a light bulb goes off..If they had all those coaches and scouts sitting behind Nurse and couldn’t fix the system,the young players like Reed, Bamba and Springer or trades,then we have to fire the whole organization and start over
I dont think Lowry starting in the playoffs was a glaring issue. If we were getting more production from our wings on a consistent basis then I would have been content with what he gave us overall. The blunder in game 2 from Lowry though was a BIG MISTAKE which you'd think a savy vet like him would have made the right decision when inbounding the ball or simply just call timeout.
Also gotta factor in If De'Anthony Melton was healthy he would have gotten those starting reps 100%.
Cam Payne I wouldnt have started. His role was perfect… Coming in off the bench to give us a spark when needed. Could he have giving us more minutes with Lowry getting less…Sure.. but hindsight is 20 20.
Man y'all been wishing Doom on the NBA for a decade now (And I know truly why), but it's the Second Biggest Sport in America and Worldwide Internationally it's the Second Biggest Sport only Second to Soccer/Real Football getting over a Billion views a game making the NFL look like a Total Joke.
So the NBA keep getting bigger and bigger with even bigger TV Contract, but it's done somehow base on American Fans crying about fouls like everything else.
They don't understand Eastwood is never wrong!even when he's wrong he's not! Lol
I think the 76ers lost because of coaching period for me if he plays Cameron Payne Ricky Council KJ Martin and Buddy hield when he was supposed to Sixers win this series easily😎
But he stayed with Tobias Harris zero Kyle Lowry zero and Nicholas Batoon zero😎
I like Nick nurse as a coach. I think he was a breath of fresh air compared to Glenn Rivers. I like the fact that he makes adjustments on the fly and I like his scheme most of the time . That being said, Nurse did not have his best series against the Knicks. Even if he Had a coaching master class against New York, I don’t think it would’ve mattered because of how HORRIBLE and biased the officiating was against us. But I digress, I don’t even want to get started again on that topic. The wound is still too fresh, seeing these last four teams playing. I really think that the best version of the Sixers could’ve beaten any one of them.
The officiating in the NBA is the worst out of all the sports. It's really pathetic to watch now days. Anti flop my ass every player flops now and likely gets hurt from that shit. The biggest fish 🐟 floppers are the ones always going to the foul line, yet Maxey can get tackled multiple times like it's the NFL. It's sad they have to ruin the game with these bogus calls 📞!!!!
Nick nurse is the white man version of doc rivers
I remember that you did hit that right on the money. I agreed with you when you said it. Furthermore, I agree the officials have been terrible.
y'all love his crippled ass 👥
Sixers I really hope the team get better, We need size and more good shooters, We need a good back up center too, Let's go Sixers 💪💪💪💯
Still my biggest pet peeve is refs will call fouls they did not see. In years past, refs would tell players who complained they didn't see it so they couldn't call it. Now, they call based on assumptions
