birdman:
reminds me of bruce bowen on the spurs back in the day. Normally chill player, but when he ramps up defense, it gets borderline legal. You cant really say its an intentionally bad foul, at the same time you have to side eye the play

birdman:
Yeah, just checked twitter . Perkins is low key dissing Giannis. Trying to hype Jrue to minimize the Giannis. Ol boy ...

SmooshCHN:
Na cruise jare. No mind us. Nice write up btw.

Where is that guy that was putting Eric Bledsoe and Jrue Holiday in the sentence? I just want to clarify something.

A40:
Perkins is a donkey and proof ESPN only care about engagement whether good or bad instead of actual intelligent punditry. Compare him to Acho on Fox and the gulf is significant

joshboo:
Finally someone is calling it, once Middleton has a good game dem go dey tweet m hype, once giannis has a sweet game it's like duh its normal. Thing is giannis no send anybody and he doesn't do padi padi with his competition it's part of it.

When the bucks win the Nba would not be stupid to give Kris, na Giannis go win am.

Even last year i felt the best player in the finals was AD but at this point the bigger name wins it.

Roland17:
Emmanuel Acho is so intelligent and even when you don’t agree with some of his takes, he makes a good compelling argument..He is sooooo underrated.. So is the show Speak for Yourself with Marcellus Wiley!

I am happy Acho left ESPN.. He is going to be really big in a few years..

A40:
For me to look past his Bronsexuality and KD hate shows that he is exceptional. He and Wiley have great chemistry and when you watch their debates you can see how far ahead they are of the competition on their network and other networks. He is already getting noticed though. He has won an Emmy and is up for another

I don't even watch First Take anymore for example, I'm tired of seeing Stephen A dump on Max and Max taking it like a chump. You're a 48 year old man ffs

joshboo:
Birdman i love you though no homo.... let love lead abeg.

But it's unfortunate from dwinwiddie, asides black on black hate... they are both of nigerian descent.... omo nawa honestly. Na the hatred be that in full disguise.

steady986:
Who is that person? Jrue and Bledsoe in the same sentence?

Roland17:
Haha! Thanks....

Khanben:
You still remember that blasphemy

Roland17:
It’s hard not to find a Bronsexual on mainstream TV. There are way too many timid analysts who speak about sports, especially in basketball. I really love your comment about Stephen A and Max because at this point it is no longer a debate but mostly deliberations or Stephen A dominating debates. Max lacks the personality especially with confidence in debating Stephen A. Infact the bulk of the talking points/ highlights have come from Stephen A who is now too comfortable.

I used to be a passive watcher/ listener of Acho but over the last month, I have gotten closer to ardent. I like how he articulates his points and presents them. I may disagree with his takes but presentation and depth of research, not necessarily analytics makes me listen. I understand he would be getting his own solo show soon and that makes me happy.. I love to see young people progress..

The funny thing about SFY is that they don not even have a moderator like their competition. Marcellus leads/ anchors but it does not deter his ability to come through. I do miss Cari Champion though! Way better than Molly..

SmooshCHN:
Be a man and make a public apology for putting Eric Bledsoe in the same conversation with Jrue Holiday.
I would be doing the most random shít and remember someone made that statement and defended it for days. Strange things we see out here Bruh

joshboo:
Omo i don defend lefraud tire for this thread but omo be like many of this main stream media guys dey on him payroll, fans dey joke about am but i won't be suprised is it's done literally.

Then those bums in ESPN they always do the most in every sport, they stir up controversy solely for engagements and ratings nothing more, cos most of thier takes no dey always make sense.
Max kellerman is smart but be like na him dem dey always give the mumu script to always look n sound stupid since SAS is their biggest star . The guys wey dey analyze football are worse, it's all for ratings for them.

Imagine max saying he trusts Trae young over steph, like even if na ment sef him ment suppose get limit, but at the end of the day anything for ratings & clout is what they care about.

Roland17:
Big ups for settling scores with @birdman..

joshboo:
Omo no hard feelings, whatever happens or is said on this thread stays on this thread.

With the othani saga, same with Giannis n other foreigners coming to dominate them on home soil it's always hard for them to accept that reality so they stir us nonsense controversies and all to pass their message.

I obviously don't take those guys seriously, only a fool would tbh cos it's absurd their takes on so many things in that ESPN. Them dey leverage on the exclusive rights to games to continue being irrational.

Lefraud haa done really well for himself between my love for him asides jis greatness na because we be birthday mates, but ESPN pushing one yeye agenda that he'll be the goat once he wins one more ring is preposterous.

The sole ring dirk won is greater to me as compared to all rings LBJ has won & the rings KD be win.

mk we see who chief assembler go wan recruit to LA next season again.

steady986:
Damn. Was Wade that bad in 2013? LeBron really carried that team to a championship.

benji93:
Welcome back, , I was wondering when you would wake up.

steady986:
I have a feeling that if/when Giannis wins this championship, there'll be more talk of KD's championships (or lack thereof) than this one . We'll be here for it. We'll be here to talk about how Giannis resisted the urge to form a superteam and led a bunch of farmers to a championship while KD ran to join a 73-win team in desperate search of a ring, after failing for several years while playing with prime Westbrook

birdman:
No doubt. Lebron and Kawhi's names will be thrown in there too.

Just last year, Giannis was being flogged in the media. Couldnt make free throws, no jumpshots, cant read double teams and they lost disgracefully in the first round I think. One year later the cat has a serviceable fadeaway, makes his free throws and is unguardable. All this without any superstar additions - just decent PG and good defensive minded PF. He definitely will make a lot of people look bad.

You can always argue that without injuries, the super teams like Clippers, Lakers and Nets would have been in the finals, but that is why we play the games

benji93:
Ahah, you don cause wahala? How did i miss it?
