I agree with Nick. It’s the opposite side of the argument that rings mean less because everyone has one (which is a stupid argument), having TWO becomes immensely more valuable.
Brou just lost some integrity lol you gotta be kidding with the spurs
Joe burrow so overrated, he’s apparently so great but can’t stay healthy or get his team to the playoffs. Alright man 🤣✌🏾
30:58 I will die on the conspiracy theory that Goodell made sure Taylor Swift got to the SB for ratings
Every question you have about Lamar and his ability to lead a team to a Super Bowl win should be asked for Burrow, Allen, and Herbert. They get significantly less attention to their terrible games and moments.
I really dont understand how people forget that Lamar was playing at an MVP level before he got injured
This guys really do hate OKC.
23/24: weakest one seed ever
24/25: too young (won anyway)
25/26: they are villains and no shot
Nick made an argument to include LeBron because he can’t get more than 3 rings
Robert Horry =7 titles
A mini dynasty is the close sweep of dynasties
Joker just did the most Joker thing ever… he's a healthy scratch. He only had to play 20 mins in this game and next game to be eligible for post-season awards. He took the night off. He doesn't care in the least about individual post-season awards. The best player in world GAVE UP his MPV leading contention case to make sure he is as ready as possible for the playoffs. Only Joker… We love you man…
I used to love this show. I can’t watch it anymore. What an insane take brou
There’s been a lot of delusion in sports media lately. Shai and Coop have been the mvp and roty, all year. Okc has been a lock to win the championship since game 1 of the season.
16-2 🏆 ⚡️ ⬆️
Why is Nick a Bird hater?
It’s not that the league is so good. KD is too moody to sustain success, Giannis can’t hit a jump shot or free throw to save his life, Jokic can’t play D. None of these guys are killers like the previous generation.
Nick Wright is a clown and the very last person I'd take advice from
Bru is 100% right about Spurs: If Wemby has a healthy career, they are going to be a dynasty.
I think dynasties are much more likely to cease to exist than the standard for a team to be considered a dynasty is to be lowered. 2 championships just isn’t enough, not because three is much more than two, but because it’s so much more than one.
These bargain basement, idiotic "sports analysts " are complete clowns. Broussard and Ichibod Crane are sad and pathetic.
But we Oklahomans love the tears, the constant gaslighting, and the mental breakdowns.
They lose their minds over us because they can't stand to see a small market team completely dominate the league.
Oh well. My OKC is about to have these people crying and screaming in the streets when we win back to back this year. Lol.
GO THUNDER!!
I HATE the Celtics and even I’m shocked they didn’t mention Boston. They’re the only team that’s won a chip and been to another finals this decade. And they’re in shape to win it this year…
Lazy argument that 3=5 championships considering the last championship didn’t even feel legit. OKC vs Pacers were two weak teams and it still took OKC 7 games and a Hali injury. Like how am I supposed to say that championship is = to 1.5 or 2 of Jordan’s championships??
Stupidest take he's had this year.
Please let Nick Wright know that the bar for dynasties never lowers regardless of how he tries to integrate LeBron into it with his convenient logic. If there are no dynasties in an era, there simply is none, you don't lower it to qualify the stars and winners in an era. If there are no clear superstars, you don't lower the grade to call average players superstars. This is not how exceptional work! Win repeatedly, or forget the label of dynasty. There's no shame in winning two and calling your career successful
Now i see why Brou has a show with Rob Parker…
These dudes are on par with the Three Stooges! 😂
Guys like Chris Broussard and Nick Wright have been given the magic pen to write the history of modern day Sports. Unfortunately, they don’t have any journalistic integrity!?! They don’t observe and report as their professional standards should require, instead, they write a story and shape history based on their own personal preferences and agendas. As a result, future sports fans will look back one day and forget guys like Nikola Jokić and Kobe Bryant. They won’t realize that they were every bit as great and impactful as the players these so-called modern day journalists choose to anoint. This is why modern day media is the enemy of truth, not just in sports, but in all other topics of import. They simply don’t hold up and embrace the standards, principles, and morality necessary to tell the truth… and it’s truly sad, disgusting and shameful. People shouldn’t entertain and support their content, we should hold them to a higher standard and expectation. People’s legacies and more importantly, the truth, depend on it.
Wemby isn't even elite yet. Not a top 5 player this year. He is coming out against the 65 game rule because he knows he can't stay healthy. The Spurs are not on dynaty watch. OKC is the dynasty. Wemby may go down as one of the best players to never win a championship.
Steph and LeBron both could have more than 4 if they didn’t choke.
Nick's laugh
Dynasties are teams. Teams with a player who’s great. Kobe and Pau are the continuation of the lakers 00’s dynasty. Same way patriots had a 10 year break.
Also Steph and KD could have won more. It had nothing to do with talent. It was ego. Not inability play wise
Pretty soon…..no titles. 😂
What happens to all of this dynasty championships if Celtics win this year? Why did nobody the Celtics being one year out and being a top tier contender this year and for the rest of JT and JB prime?
Brou really loves Wemby.
