  1. It's crazy to think that Paul George would be having a different/better season if he was traded to the Golden State Warriors last summer (July,2024). Instead of leaving for the Philadelphia 76ers. Clippers were playing hardball and didn't want to trade PG to Golden State.

  2. 25 games left in the season, and now he thinks is the time to give basketball his 100% effort.

  3. Stephen is a joke. Paul is under contract to play. Please play…how does one decide not to play while collecting a massive salary. Stephen will say anything😂😂😂😂

  4. This SAS is biggest trash of them all. From logistic backup,favoring and promoting "brother" Embiid to steal a MVP award from Jokić,to calling him trash. Yes,Embiid is pure trash,but so are you,together with him in the same package.

  5. PG always was always overrated to me. He is an above average player that’s always hurt. His time was up when he left the pacers.

  6. Any other job would get you fired after what PG said. What do you mean you are focusing on your game only after 3/4 of the season is over? He gets paid 50 million per year.

  7. Embiid realizes 10yrs into his career that it's too late to fix his bad habits that ultimately brought his knees here…..Podcast P realizes after 50 games into the season, that it's time to start focusing on playing ball…..these two are an absolute joke 😮‍💨🤦🏻‍♂️💀💀💀

  8. Haha he takes break from the podcast now after 80% of the season being done. He doesn’t care and never did care

  9. Stephen A mocked AD, Kyrie, Embiid, etc. for missing games. Buried Kawhi for load management. Then he says a player like Maxey should sit out bc 76ers stink? Then every bad lottery team should rest every single NBA player and use g-leaguers. Lets forfeit games.

  10. Why wasn’t this an option weeks ago? I’m tired of this man dropping 14-19 points then sitting on the podcast like they just won. He literally said “okay ima take basketball seriously now” without saying it

  11. You're not competing for a championship. You should've taken a break before this losing streak started.
    you got to be kidding me,
    🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
    😂😂😂

  12. They're tanking right, so OKC, don't get that pick I'm sure of it, and what are you trying to achieve when Embid is not running on all cylinders a play in spot ? First round exit at best.
    Pack it up and get ready for next season.

  13. A lot of players should be ashamed that they didn’t put in the work and nutrition. It’s a 40 year old player balling.

  14. Only reason george is deciding now to take the game seriously is because he realized the sixers have a chase at getting a top lottery pick. The sixers 2025 draft pick is top 6 protected if they keep losing they'll keep their draft pick and possibly be able to draft his replacement in copper flagg or ace Bailey but is if he can lock in and get the sixers a few more wins the sixer lose that pick and it goes to okc

  15. SAS's mindset is exactly what is killing the NBA and will eventually turn it into MLB. If star players feel so free to cavalierly shut it down, then the fans who work hard to buy tickets, paying exorbitant prices for food, and spend time traveling to games in the hopes providing a special experience for their children, should also stay at home.

    The more the players take rest days for load management or refuse to play to effect a change in contracts, the more fans will disassociate from their team and the league in general.

    There are a lot of entertainment options available to people nowadays, and taking fans for granted will be the NBA's FAFO moment.
