15:41 That's an amazing stat considering the next closest player to Tatum still playing is Lebron at #35. Also amazing Dennis Johnson is #1 when he smoked at least a pack a day, the guy never got injured or sick. When he turned 52 he died of a heart attack.
Jacoby, we realize you grew up in Boston, , in the south there are black Jenkins, white Jenkins, mexican, etc. White Tyrones,, etc. you get the point though.
jt was the 3rd highest selling jersey last yr behind bron and steph. thats pretty popular. he'll only get bigger as the old guys age out and he continues to play on big stages
he'd be even bigger if he had a nemesis ha! outside of the old guard (bron, steph, kd), hes so far and away the best and biggest american star in the league, to the point where no1 else is even challenging him or the celtics for that throne. now that hes matured and entering his prime, the old guys arent the same and their teams arent great. ppl love ant. they're fiending for a chance to big him up as the best guy but he hasnt put himself on the stage to be in the convo - statistically or won in the playoffs consistently enough. n ad isnt built w the motor or playmaking chops to be a true #1 guy. as far as the foreign players - hes 3-0 v embiid in the playoffs , 2-1 v giannis, 1-0 v luka, n hasnt played jokic or sga. most of these wins came fairly easily too. so we've never seen him overcome a big challenge. batman is boring w/o the joker (no pun intended) feel me? rn there arent any supernatural ppl causing trouble. tatum IS iron man but we're watching him beat the s**t out civilians lmao. its no fault of tatums hes not bigger than he already is. yall fav team n player need to get they sh*t together. on dogs! 😂
Not every team should be shooting threes sure but the numbers don’t lie if your opponent is shooting and making a high volume of 3s you HAVE to counter with that. The game is called Basketball not 3 point shoot out
The Raptors top three have played....drum roll...zero games together this year. Their top four in the last 67 games have played 18 minutes together. Woowoo.
verno just described the exact same reason why jokic wins MVP every year with advanced analytics, when he is going against gobert winning defensive player of the year with the same analytics. This one statement shows how biased, and how hypocritical the NBA media is. You can make the exact same statement about Jokic but when it comes to him, all the stats matter. He has an argument prepared for him in every situation. His team sucks? Oh he needs help. His team is great? Its all jokic! Maybe you should look at yourselves and assess these arguments before you go public with them. These people are saying jokic is having the greatest season ever, and yet Luka just put up 34/10/9 last season but we were told winning matters. Nuggets are a lower seed than Luka and the Mavs. And I don't think Luka should be in the conversation this year, but the jokic glazing is becoming hypocritical.
Just curious… what does Donovan Mitchell have to do to be top 5 in mvp voting? His team has the best record in the league, he’s the best player on the best team so far, his team is maybe a SF away from being legit title contenders, & we all know he’s a dawg and he’ll get a bucket when the game is close. He’s less ball dominant than he’s been in the past and his team is benefitting from it. We never even talk about him for being one of the best SG in the nba. What does the narrative have to be for us to start talking about him more?
His team is 1gm ahead for best record after their great start. Let's see where they are at the end. It's a marathon not a sprint. Would you be happy if he was in the discussion now and not mentioned after? If he's meant to be he will be. We don't ignore ppl balling for a season.
@ I mean I’m not a cavs fan or anything so it doesn’t really matter to me. He’s the best player on the best team and he’s not talked about at all, and it’s been like that for a while. Not in the discussion for team USA, never even talked about for best at his position. It’s just kinda weird that’s all
I agree Tatum is boring and that's why he doesn't get the respect he deserves. It's a dumb reason but it's true. In today's NBA you have to be interesting due to social media's influence. He's better than Ant Edwards but Ant is more likeable.

love this pod, thanks for the content fellas

God I love that announcer in Charlotte. I’ll still take Marlowe, Hastings, and Winge any day but he’s a great #2 who’s realistically #1.
Would Hakeem and Jokic resonate more with American fans if they were on a glamour team??? (Lakers,Celtics,Knicks)
If Jokić was a Celtic, he'd be worshipped like a God right now.
I wonder if Jacoby thinks Africans came over with the last name Jenkins??
Jacoby, why do you keep your office at 85 degrees? lol. Turn your heat down my man

He'd be far more popular if he had any aura. Love his game, but he has the charisma of a power adapter.
Where was the “just give it to him” argument with Luka last year? All of a sudden historic numbers out weight winning lol
What time is the Dirk talk at?
Jacoby is just a vibe.

Dillion brooks is more hated than Rudy.
No he's not
No one blames Brooks for spreading covid to the US. People actually do that with Rudy though.
Coughing on mics was such a childish and disrespectful act. Rudy earned a special kind of dislike from many fans
@@klaymatic3751 That's not why he's hated.
@@shorewallsure bud. Him doing that followed by a season getting shut down has nothing to do with it. What a good take.
04:17 Jacoby never heard of OG Jenkins - Leeroy?
Leeroy Jenkins! Amazing reference
They can still trade Dennis due to a loophole too. It was a win win for a team that needs to lose more and a team that needs to generate offense.
The Raptors top three have played....drum roll...zero games together this year. Their top four in the last 67 games have played 18 minutes together. Woowoo.
Raptors trash asf
The Raptors have a top 3?
Raps fans never fail to make everyone laugh
I hope IQ isn’t in a team’s top 3
Who is the raptors top 3?
Do you think the Bulls will be able to move LaVine and Vuc?
No they suck, no one wants them.
Yes, Vuc is having a career year and Lavine is playing super efficient. I'd bet they are both gone by the deadline.
Vučević, yes. LaVine, no.
No sensible team would take them. Maybe a desperate team
@@htown11465 A bunch of teams could use Vuc. he statistically one of the best in the league
I also don’t like Jennifer Gardner acting like a farmer haha
This season Rudy Gobert is shooting career high Free throw %. His freethrow 76.5% is higher the likes of Lebron and jaylen brown.
I saw the Jennifer garner commercial and I just threw my tv away
Verno keeps forgetting to mentioned the grizzlies strength of schedule so far this season. How convenient…
The Hornets should go after Zion.
And give up who to the Pels? If I'm Griffin I'm not accepting anything less than a Ball or Miller.
Heek no. Hornets need more adults, not kids. Keep letting Brandon Miller and LaMelo develop together. That's the future and fill in the gaps.
@@silewis9396no team that wants to win is offering anything of value for Zion. Nobody wants to pay someone $40m a year not to play.
A small team who traded for another small guard? Cool for the regular season, but that ain’t helping the Warriors in the playoffs

Have close to the same impact of all the dude above him and he's not even close right now. Garland might be having a better season than him.
As a Cavs fan, he deserved it more last year.
Hes actively taking a step back this season so the team can be better as a whole.
@@dearmas9068 Which is why the MVP award is overrated.

Damn this show sucks now.
