Espn will go TMZ route once LeBron retires and chase him around his home just to have something to talk about.
The NBA is bigger than Lebron. The Lakers is bigger than Lebron. The league will thrive and move on after Lebron retires.
@@arvinpaculaba7013I can’t tell 😂🤣
@@ferrariphilxfacts 😂😂he got them on their knees it’s like a cult
@@BrianBlaze. Right … and I’m a Jordan #1 Kobe #2 and everybody else type of guy.. and I can’t deny how Lebron literally walks around juggling the nba media nuts in his hands like he finna roll a 7 or 11 on every roll (big pause) 🤣😂🤣
@@ferrariphilxyea but it’s not like the media praises LeBron. They spend all their time trying to discredit him
When Stephen A. Starts off his point with complements grab your popcorn, a rant is coming 😂
That's when I hit MUTE.
Is that how you must speak about people? glaze them and over clarify your love and respect for them before handing out your honest critique of them? Genuinely asking. All these analysts seem to do this as a preface before saying their opinion on a situation.
Bro went from talking abt Bronny to talking abt the Lakers hiring a head coach 😂
😂😂😂
Exactly. EVERY TIME he says anything about Lebron or Bronny, he has to compliment him first. He always acts like he is scared of criticizing Lebron.
topic is Bronny.....SAS goes LBJ wants JJ as lakers headcoach LOL classic
Lol unbelievable
I just said this
Is he lying though?
@@Meme_dad1 off topic?
@@Sirleeproductionss but is he lying though? The kid ain’t ready and daddy gets more black men fired than HR
One thing I know for sure: SAS hates Bron and JJ's podcast LOL
You can tell it bothers him because he always finds a way to mention the podcast and give it backhanded compliments
Thats ok. The masses hate First Take unless Shannon Sharpe is on
lol
I like this show right now tbh except for SAS
Stephen A. is salty at competition. It could be LeBron and JJ's podcast or Shannon's Club Shay Shay. PG's podcast is good, and so is Gilbert Arenas'. There are a lot of options out there better than Stephen A.
boston celtics number 1 pick bronny james
They talk about the 54 pick more than the number 1 its ridiculous.
I'm confused how a segment about brony James ends up being about LeBron and coaches smh
Every kid that went to the combine is hard working
Stephen A hates JJ so much
I do too.. since his days in Duke.
I don’t like JJ either
We all hate JJ ifkyk
I love JJ .. best bball player since Kareem
I think it’s the other way around.
If Stephen A starts with a compliment he back door you period lol
He should have something to do with fire coaches. It’s crazy that the media only cares about winning but don’t think you should get rid of coaches that can’t help you win
Good luck Bronny
Stephen A face as soon as this video played 😂😂😂😂
I’m entering the draft, pistons need a sharpshooter
You can’t shoot and you’re white
They took what this father said about his son in compliment and totally twisted it up for clicks 🤣
🎯🎯🎯
The hate in SAS voice is amazing!!!!
Why is it hate?
Anytime Lebron is called out here comes the Leriders Defense squad.
boston celtics number 1 pick bronny james
It’s called context Lebron haters lol. SA hates the Bron and JJ podcast. Know your info before you hate lol
@@jr5micsJust like you MJ and Kobe fans don’t get me started on Jokic.
What does the coach recruitment have to do with Bronny ?
😂SA got too much going on to think straight
it’s just adding to SAS point about how LeBron does indeed play a role when it comes to hiring or letting go of a coach. Not that it’s a bad thing, but LeBron acts like it’s not a thing when in reality it is
JJ and Bron are friends and business partners, it's an opportunity to be drafted by the Lakers if the coach wants him especially if that coach is JJ ( friends with his Dad)
He brings it us because he doesnt want to want to talk about Bronny. SAS is scared of Bron.
Stephen A got schooled by JJ on live tv and keeps being confused on why people want him as a coach 😂😂
No he didn't
@@dennislewis7047 Yeah, he did.
FAKE NEWS
lmaooo was jj not a candidate for charolette job? or Toronto Job? stephen A is one of the best narrative pushers out there
yeah, but come on - you can't be coach of a team when your EMPLOYER is one of the players - that's so unprofessional
JJ. Redick interviewed for the Charlotte Hornets job, but he wasn't a serious candidate for the head coach position. Also, Redick wasn't doing some podcast with the star player and suddenly received an interview request. It's not good optics for the Lakers, especially given people already feel LeBron James/Klutch Sports is dictating organizational decisions.
Stephen A, Wilbon, and Brou just need to come out and say they are mad Bron didn’t save ham from AD and himself. Just say it, the evil podcast plot, when they had been trying to get that together since at least the start of the season is crazy.
They keep getting good guy mixed up with good coach Ham was horrible at times I would not be surprised if Ham is somewhere right now with his hands in his pockets
SAS really hates LeBron
Clearly he needs to stop pretending he doesn’t
Wow clean up the stain lebron left on ur mouth and get off ur hands and knees. It’s called necessary criticism 💀
@@shelbyhaiketic4212you not funny man🤣
@@shelbyhaiketic4212 Is that you Stephen A? You seem really invested in my comment.
ESPN is the worst
Not even
how did you get ESPN is the worse from this video?
@@Oct13thsExactly ESPN and Disney is the worst
0:28 Is it now “Brian Windhorst & The Hoop Collective”? It used to be just the Hoop Collective. Windy power move.
I mean, he is a legend at this point.
It’s funny how much SA is unaware of how much he hates Bron and JJ for their podcast.
You are dumb and you know it.
So by stating facts is hating ? If you say so lebronsexual
The are a few of these " analysts " who low key want Bronny to fail and are having a hard time keeping a straight face.So this is how I'm sure he will have a successful 10 yr career !!!
Joy Taylor > Molly Qerim
Holy casual.💀
Missbnasty
And it not even close.
Big facts. She actually has something to say and doesnt interrupt to say it.
Lol that's a no contest 😂😂
Stephen A. stays cooking Windy lmaoo
SAS has a lot of nerve making assumptions about who got Ham fired, when the whole world knows that SAS got Max fired. Talk about hypocrisy.
He admitted that
Hey ESPN do you understand how disrespectful this nonsense is to the actual prospects in this draft?
No they don't...
How is this disrespectful? The other prospects aren’t exciting. This is a narrative driven media outlet. This isn’t the nba itself just a propaganda machine. They will always show the biggest story
Nobody knows the prospects in this draft
Name the top 5 prospects.... exactly
@@TJaeSpeaks You may not know them but that doesn't change the fact they are WELL MORE ESPN worthy than anyone related to LeBron
Dude in the middle got mugged this morning look at that face lmao
SAS with the conspiracy theory 😂😂😂
Stephen A hates Lebron so much …..
1+1=2? You might want to check in with Terrence Howard
Put up the entire segment
What was he supposed to say .... oh yeah my son just aight
He did not have to say anything. Let his son proves himself instead telling the world most NBA player is worst than Bronny. I can not recall any former player would say such thing.
What’s up with him mentioning the podcast with jj and lebron on these segments 😂😂
Stephen A hates JJ with a passion because he used to rinse him in first take
The JJ Reddick as Laker coach thing he stole from Rashard McAnts on Gils Arena Podcast
@@spacexmikeyup literally the same take
We talking about a 54 pick now 😂😂😂
SAS podcast better take off bc he might be getting fired next! His style is played out
Watching the Wolves last night Bronny learning behind Mike Conley (also 6’1) and next to a Ant Edwards would take a lot of pressure off him and solely play the role he envisions and a role the Wolves need. Let him chase around a Kyrie and spot up for 3 while learning to run a team from one of the better guys in the league like Mike
So who is projected to go #1 this year??
Lebron James should have made the all star team his rookie year huge stub
Imagine Bronny becoming great and all SAS has to say is Lebron wanted JJ 😂
Love it.
Feel like that could’ve been a 1 minute video. Man SAS loves his own voice lol
A whole segment about a second round pick 🤣
Windy: I don’t trust my eyes, so I ask other people to use their eyes😂 and I trust it
Yeah, trust the eyes of people whose job it is to think about these things. Recognizing that you’re not an expert in all things. What’s wrong with that?
@@anonymouslakernerd7214 I hear you but what makes these “scouts” more experienced at evaluating talent for real? These are the same scouts and GMs that get almost every draft wrong😂…..They got Lebron right and Duncan maybe but had MJ where? Kobe where?
@@martinisholt7052 more like martinisdolt
JJ started a podcast with Bron to educate young players and people on the X and Os of basketball. JJ actually go the idea from disagreeing with you Stephen A about not knowing the offensive and defensive plays and strategies of basketball. You challenge him to educate you and the fans, and he stepped up to the plate. Now you have a problem with it.
You mean for Lebum change narratives about past
i keep saying, espn hyping it up for viewership after the 1st 10 picks. Ppl will tune in just to see if gets drafted
The true disservice is ESPN continuing to cover Bronny James. He understands the coverage is because of his dad. You guys , anyone making videos etc are all ONLY covering the kid because of his dad.
That guy in the middle looks like The Thing
What's a good spray tan product to use?
"at BK, have it your way, you rule" 🍔🍔
😂😂😂 The power of your dad being the Face of the NBA. I don't care what anyone say if Bronny is killing against the best going pro why he couldn't score in College 😂😂
Windy on the ozempic lol
That pressure y’all keep talking about was actually what made all this possible The fact that LeBron mentioned he wanted to play with his son is the only reason he’s even being considered to be drafted. You can praise him and blame him for the same thing.
Lmao when Bronny goes in the first round y'all gon be SICK😂😂😂
That won’t be happening 😂
God forbid a man saying he wants to play with his son 😂 SAS is such a weak weasel
Hahaha Bronny at the Celtics would be hilarious.
what that mean, the crossed arms from stephen A.?
I want Bronny to take on a Westbrook role. Pure hustle and grit will make him very valuable
Did Lebron get Vogel fired from the Suns and Bickerstaff fired from the Cavs? Why does the media act like only his coaches get fired? Ham was trash as a coach. He deserved to be fired. Watch the Lakers in the second halves. They had no clue what to do. That tells me they were able to execute in the first halves because they had energy. As soon as they tired, coaching was needed but there was none because Ham had no clue.
I understand why Draymond Green says what he says about Stephen A Smith. Do you think he knows everything don’t know nothing.
I truly believe bronny could play a role that Cason Wallace does for okc
Holy Shhh I thought he was 6’4 this whole time???
LMWS is the best 💪💯 ( Legs , Molly , Windy & Stephen A ) Keep it up .
So I had to listen to SAS rant for an hour without hearing a response from Windy?
What's wrong with letting him prove himself before drafting him? Why the rush to draft him?
I googled his stats.... he didnt even start.
Miami heat would probably develop bronny
Playing for The Lakers would ruin his development
Stay on they neck SA 😂😂
SAS get on tv yapping and creating narratives JJ had a coaching interview with charlotte before the lakers even came up , Darvin got fired cause of that video of him taking the whole timeout to draw up a play and still couldn’t get it right 😂😂
I remember he was a projected lottery pick before his health scare and following USC season. I don't see a pro yet, but he does have skills to work with. I think at the next level it's just does he have the mind set to be aggressive enough to have an impact on the game...
Atlanta Hawks select Bronny James Jr 1st overall pick 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
I think he gone be good
You can see it on Windhorst’s face. He can’t say anything against LeBron. LeBron has paid his bills for over 20 years and he’s gotta keep his mouth shut to maintain that source.
Lol nxgga what Crack u been smoking😂😂........stephen a snitch, wilbon and skip been on jordan brand payroll for 30 years straight 🤣 🤣......thats why they twist any randomn topic into a bron hating segment for last 20 years for clickbait ratings😂😂....this clown stephen a literally admits to calling jordan b4 giving any opinions about him on tv 🤣 🤣
Lebron is in that same room with a gun and hand cards for windy to read off 😅
Hey @smallvillefreak sas was jealous because windhorst's got that LBJ job he said why not a black guy he said this on first take.hey payer watch what happen if Kyrie win the championship they're going to bring LBJ up watch what I tell you LBJ is paying alot of these guys bills every RUclips channel talk about him and LBJ is out here dance he don't care about that all for clicks stay up 1 Love
@@DerrickAli-sy4ugman you and SAS in the same boat
He is 6'3 on a NBA court Bronny the only player in history that people refer to his combine height talking about his size
I'm so sick of it.They always talking about anything that has anything to do with Lebron James.Or the lakers or whatever period the same crap over and over again
How is this possible in people's mind that Bronny is a higher pick above Tristian Newton and Mark Sears? Wow! Mind Boggling !!!!!
What are you talking about? SAS here there everywhere
I don't think jj ridick can coach lakers his no experience in coaching.
Good luck Bronny.
Celtics would never draft him
Man that’s not bringing a microscope to his son, he just said he wants to play with his son that’s it, it’s you who elevate this crap. Man, Paul George even hinted at that half the league was trash
💯
This man really said "He will get drafted because of his name". With a straight face dawg…
No lies detected
Why are we talking Lakers again??
Bronny is the biggest sports take this week. More hype than the NBA conference finals.
What if someone draft him before the lakers just to get Lebron???
There will likely be a sus trade like the Hornets drafting Kobe Bryant only to trade him to the Lakers.
As a SAC kings diehard I always respect Lebron for bringing a title to a small market like CLE. Bronny come to SAC!!
ESPN is full of it. This dude is NOT an NBA prospect. Stop the B.S.
Espn should b forced to shut up for a week or jus covarage after games they turnt sports into 90210 Beverly hills😂😅
Just let his son play. There’s plenty of players that take their place in the nba for granted. Ben Simmons types. Let him play one season off the bench a few minutes here or there. After all LeBron has done for this league it’s the least we could do
Bronny definitely lifted his stock in the shooting drills. 12 in a row,. He looked like Klay Thompson in his prime out there.
Am I tripping or does Windy look like he lost some weight?
The way the media and scouts are evaluating Bronny is nothing short of nepotism at its finest
You mean to tell me there’s no other prospects but the 94th rank player that is apparently going to g 54th.
Bronny was hated the day he was born, cause grown men hate on kids all the time
Literally no one hated on bronny, r u on
Bro he is not an nba ready pg at all😂 not even a backup , we talk about backup pg, Schroeder, Reggie Jackson, payton Pritchard, Gabe Vincent, Jeff Teague ,pat bev, Cole Anthony, Westbrook, dj augustin, cam Payne, u have to seriously ask yourself does Bronny look like any of those guys rn? No.
Telling the truth is hate ?
Please leave these kids alone!
Facts 💯 and like kwame brown says " stay out them high schools"
He always talk about how great it is....i got a feeling he hate that podcast....
He’s jealous
he averaged 5 in aau. he averaged 5 in high school. he averaged 5 in college. he will average 5 wherever he goes. wish him well. good kid
Focus on playoff teams, you are just milking Lbj and his son for ratings lol
