When losing or game is close, Bron plays bully ball and plows his defender over. Too big with athleticism. Not bball talent. Then when he has the lead he relaxes and can pad his stats. Nick is awesome, minus his nonsensical Bron infatuation
How am I supposed to know if I'm watching the videos in the correct order if I don't see Wilde's doing a drum roll on the desk?
2021- 1st round exit
2022 – missed playoffs
2023 – wcf (swept)
2024- 1st round exit
2025 – 1st round exit
Definitely the resume of a top 10 guy in the playoffs 😂😂😂
How did nick make calling somebody a “pretty good player” feel like he was taking a shot
Brou had to take a shot at Luka
A couple of days ago, these guys took the Lakers out of the playoffs because they don't have Reaves and Doncic. Now, they are praising Lebron. Do we still believe on these guys?
Luke Kennard going 5-5 on 3s is a bit crazy.
If Nick genuinely thinks that there are more people who think that magic or russell are the goat over Kobe, then I don’t even know what to say
0:03 he’ll never be not good ever 🐐
Amen on Lebron is chicken nuggets. You saw it last time.
Id rather prefer Eason guarding Lebron.
Where is Nick banging on the table and Wildes making some snarky remark?!? My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined (still watching every vid)
Prime Chris Paul? Relax Nick… Relax
The Lebron glazing must be stopped
Home is where the heart is Wildes lol
Kennard and Ayton are the 2 Carriers , next game if they got checked by the Houston … its gonna be 1-1 even without KD.
its a SINGLE digit difference Win , with COURT advantage and without KD.
Brou is back yes let’s go
It’s just one game Nick if lakers win game two then yeah it’s likely over
It’s never just a good game by LeBron ey? Always gotta be some angle to make it “historical” 😂
Unreal
Yes lebron is still a top 10 player in the post season but they are playing the rockets which currently has no offense without kd which is laughable
Bro, Houston shot 93 to the Lakers 66 shots in game one. Houston did not play on the same level as the Lakers did! If Luka makes it back for game 5 then this season is 100% over and those who picked Houston to win the season will look like the haters that they are.
LeBron is special. One of One
Ngl I have hated on Bron in the past… joining up with D Wade AND Bosh…loss to the Mavs…and I just don't think he is "better than MJ (or Kobe)… regardless, Bron is Goated
26:38 “like big men inside” PAUSE!!!
Nick is so aroused by LeBron 🤦🏻♂️ It’s not like Kannard didn’t carry with the 3’s. Nick – I don’t wanna take away from other guys, while literally taking from other guys immediately 😂
I don’t like they never wanna talk about controversial topics because it’s uncomfortable. The Vrabel Russini they never have spoken or how it’s kinda funny this trade was spoken so much about by Russini before it was officially reported today. They only talk about uncomfortable topics if it directly impacts the sport like if Vrabel gets suspended or something then they would have to
A strong 12 lmao
Any great player will always be good the difference is he never had a major injury and took some type of ped
Bengals traded the 10th pick for him tho? Lol at this age!!! Then sign him to a 1yr deal
I can't watch KW talk anything patriots anymore. Its infuriating.
LeBron is that dude that plays great team ball can be great but when it comes to playing vs other greats he shrinks unless he got a super team
Dont tesla car have cams? Do they record?
This show should be called the LeBron stat praising show
Lakers wil still lose in 5 to rockets
