“They’re a hip hop group” 💀💀💀 great response by Brou
He was so quick
Perfect replacement for Undisputed.
This show > First Take
First take sucks!
Was looking for this comment. Love FTF and I love how this is now the current Undisputed refugee camp 😂
Always what I’m waiting for to come out. Bummer about how the show has been only a half hour the last week and I’m excited for it to get back to full length on Wednesday.
Do u know why the shows are shorter this week?
@@1phndux286 FS1 has been showing 2024 UEFA Euro qualifying starting at 2:30EST so I’m guessing they’re wanting to/contractually obligated to have that on and so they’ve had to shorten the surrounding shows and change the times.
@@nathanroon6961 thanks dude!
Bro I feel the sa!e way feelijg like I'm missing somethingnor they ain't uploading the clips right 😂😂😂😂
Ayooo 😂😂😂
The best sports show on television, been waiting for this all day
Only because Shannon has left.
Your standard is on the floor
Great time to kick undisputed while they’re down…let me post this
Not the best. It’s pretty good most days. Better since Nick toned down the Skip Bayless Jr gimmick.
Facts it's #1 now
Please tell me y’all also noticed wildes face at 4:47 when brou said “that’s a heck of a foursome” 😭😭😭
When he looked at Nick to see if he got the reference 🤣
🤣
this is why I came down to the comments section🤣
At 4:47 he was still stone faced. 4:52 is more accurate.
Kevin Wildes makes this show lmao
No... Dame is a much better PG passing the ball than Devin. lol
I’m here watching this show now that Shannon left undisputed 💯
Much love n peace to everyone 🫡
Same here Without Shannon undisputed isn't even a show I care to watch anymore. And much love and peace back your way
Yup, same here. Peace & love to you as well
I’m still searching I don’t like Nick wrong
Shannon is overrated relax

Man i wish they went on air more. My absolute favorite sports show, their chemistry is unmatched no doubt
Yea such good sports analysis, hearing the guy who thinks the lakers are gonna win the championship say part of the reason the sun's have no shot is durability 🤣🤣 nicks a clown
@@nevadapoole6180 they are entertaining as sports personalities giving their predictions and opinions. Definitely do not analyze anything.
“The first big 3 was in Boston”
*The Spurs big 3 sitting in the corner with 4 rings* : 😂😂
The Spurs were all drafted. Big three usually refers to bringing in at least two.
So that mean warriors weren’t a super team .
Spurs are known as a Tim Duncan solo act unfortunately
Even ‘99 Chip with prime DRobinson.
Prime Ginobili & Prime Parker wasn’t super stars. Spurs had depth with DRobinson, BBowen, SJackson, ADaniels, SKerr, etc.
Plus HOF coach Popovich
@@manniesupasport7977 Pop was not a HOF coach before Duncan got there and they started winning. 1st 2 rings they def talked about the twin towers so it wasn't a Duncan solo act. Later on it became more of a Duncan solo act with very good players that fit around him. No way Ginobili or Parker would sniff the HOF without all the winning the Spurs did because their talent alone never had them honestly in the top 5-10 players in the league.
@Zoorii 2015, 2016 Warriors aren't a superteam, correct.
These dummies in Phoenix trying to take short cuts still. Who’s gonna screen? Guard? Rebound? Beal is a lesser Booker
Short cuts exactly
1) There is no real leader on the team
2) beal and kd are injury prone so that plays a factor
3) you have a defensive minded coach with a offensive team
so we’ll see how it plays out they’ll be nice in 2k tho
Beal and Booker will be amazing for years to come once Durant leaves, plus if they want, they can trade Booker in the future for a Haul of draft picks and a couple good players in return. Beal is a freak. In my opinion, no one has a chance unless they make a huge trade in the West or East. I just see no one beating this team, even Denver and the Suns, who went 6 and the Suns literally took them on with two players. Now they have a third superstar. Plus, Denver is probably going to lose a couple players in free agency. They going have a hard time guarding us with trying double team Booker and leave so much for Beal. They're going to take Book as much as I would rather try to trade -yton for Turner, leaving Conell or Hield. Hield off the bench would give us like 18 and then Turner can play defense shoot 3's. And give you something like 14 to 16 games with 8 boards, but I want Capela and Bogdan Bogdanovi. That would be nice for us. Capela is strong, giving you a lot of boards and second-chance points, and Bogdan is a good shooter; he'll get a lot of open shots too. Especially if another superstar is seated next to him. I would bring back Okogie and Jock. I would try to get a decent backup in Thomas Bryant or Naz Reid.
@@adamdavis5383you aren’t getting one of the best 3P shooters ever Buddy Hield and someone essentially equal to Ayton with much better contract Myles Turner for Ayton. Maybe if you had draft capital to add to it, but without it NOPE!
Nick looks up to Bill Simmons. He’s always quoting his podcast.
Suns would’ve been soooo much better off if they elevated Mikal, moved off CP contract for Beal like they did, and built around 3 young players, and traded Ayton for depth. They f’d up.
The ceiling was never the championship with that formula, tho
100%
I think you are right. Better with Mikael, booker , and Durant.
Trade cp3 and Ayton for the pieces you need to fill out depth of the bench.
They wouldn't have gotten Durant without Mikal.
They had to get KD at all cost so Mychel had to go
Suns to the Finals calling it now!!
They won’t get through Denver
@@facelessandnamelessshut up hater
@@facelessandnameless They took them six games with two players; now you have Beal, omg, that's scary, and they lost Cp3, and Ayton was averaging eight in that series, and they still took six. Now the Suns win in five against the Nuggets, or they sweep them. The Lakers were literally taking them back-to-back every game as a 7th seed, even though they got swept, but if Russell played well, that series was the other way around in the Lakers favor.
Whiles that was vicious man...
THREE ON THREE TEAM!
😂🤣😂🤣😭
The key to the Suns is getting Ayton on board and properly motivated. He's been, let's say, improperly handled. If they can get that working correctly and injuries at bay, this will be a hard team for the Nuggets to beat.
Trade Ayton.
He got to go. Get something for him.
I mean keep in mind this is a grown man we’re talking about. If he wanted to give it his all, he would have already.
@@reem9317 We don't know the inner workings of the Suns. Ayton could have a legitimate beef or he could be a loser. I don't trust anything the current NBA media says about anything or anyone, so it's hard to know. Just sayin.
Brou: "They're a hip hop group"
Me: 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nick the same guy who told us the Lakers were the favorites 😂😂😂😂
They were though they just had coaching issues at the same time they ran into a red hot Murray.
@@HeroicJei Naw
@@HeroicJei They got swept. Common now
that series was a coin flip
The Lakers ran into a better team. The Nuggets were definitely better than LAL but that wasn’t as apparent until they actual played. No shame in that, shout out to DEN!
I appreciate that Wildes, thank you lol.
Okay for context as a OKC fan. We had Ibaka who was a DPOY caliber pf/c. Also to make it work. Harden was on the bench most of the game except for the 4th quarter. And even sometimes he didn’t play if his shot wasn’t falling.
Exactly their pure shooting is going to be ridiculous, you can’t double off of any of these guys and booker/Beal especially are really good at beating players off the dribble especially on late close outs I. E doubling someone else. Kd and book already proved in the playoffs they can be “playmakers”. No one is stopping jokic outside of maybe the bucks with Jrue guarding Murray with Gianni’s and brook. If we had someone else to make shots outside of kd and book. we take game 2 in Denver. If we do keep ayton, we really need to carve out an offensive role. We just need guys like torey Craig who shoot above 45% we have too many guys shooting low 40s
Monty should’ve played Craig more minutes, and he should’ve gave ayton a bigger role when KD joined the team along with a rest of the bench. he iced them for the playoffs
@@speakingfacts3931 you know what you sound like. A Nets fan… remember when the nets had Kyrie and KD. And they said you can’t double off because they got Seth and Harris. Two of the best catch and shoot shooters in basketball. Bro your not smart if you can’t see. The issue with your team. Is the fact that you have a center that was draft #1 needs to be spoon fed under the rim. Your center who instantly gets cooked if the big he’s playing is anywhere near his level he folds like a lawn chair. KD is fooling y’all. He ain’t that guy and he injury prone. Like bro listen to yourself. You want. Ayton who all his career has basically been 16pt 12reb to now be 20+pts 14reb. It’s not happening. You want every role player to shoot in the 40s from 3….. bro you sound like a kid and I’m not responding no more. Because everyone knows that’s not basketball. They have no depth they play no defense and it is what it is. They not making the finals see u next year
BROU SAID THE SUNS ARE IN THE SAME SPOT AS THE LAKERS 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
😂he said happy Juneteenth 😂😂 that's funny
Lmao Wildes face when Brou said that's a heck of a foursome😂😂😂
Bro nobody wants CP3
His contract is too much and his age unfortunately. CP3 is a good acquisition for any team imo.
How did this dude come up with a band with no Michael Porter Jr.
@@Brian_Williams5298 Naw you just don't know if his body can survive in the playoffs. (Has he even been able to finish a playoff run healthy other than a couple of times?)
So it’s KD, Booker, Beal, Ayton and a bunch of role players that could only sign for 1 year. Like can this team ever play defence and have enough to build around this team? Like that was the reason you hired Frank Vogel for defence. Idk how this will work out.
I bet they can play defense better than you can spell it. Js

Suns have no balance. No playmaker, nod defense, no bench, no leadership, no intangibles. Two perennial playoffs choker in Book and KD. Second round exit.

@@t-raw4316 They are not playmakers. Are you really this clueless?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for posting!
What about the bench?
OKC wasn't a "big 3". Harden was coming off the bench and averaged 12.7ppg, 3.4rpg, and 2.5 apg in OKC.
If that's a "big 3", then so was LBJ, AD, and Russ. Russ was averaging 15.2ppg, 5.4rpg, and 6.8 apg off the bench in LA and was averaging 18/7/7 as a starter.
Yea but Russell is a top 75 player at the end of the day who avg went up in the playoffs with the clippers especially in that suns series, Russ had to play a certain way with lebron just like Kevin love and Chris Bosh who numbers dropped a lot because of the role
If fhe team was built organically, its not a superteam. But if 1 allstar in their prime joins 2 other allstars in their prime then that's a superteam. It shouldn't be difficult to understand what's a superteam.
This show is hidden gem at fox and shannon needs his own show too
Hidden? No way.
Would have been great to see Paul get a year without Monty getting in the way but I am still up on the Suns because we actually have a coach now
Not scared of this super team
The unscariest big three ever assembled
Good thing you would never in your life play against them 😂
You on the team bro?
Not a super team
Well it’s not a super team so 🤷🏾♂️
They didn’t need another expensive scorer. They need defense and bench depth!
What they needed was to flip CP3 for two rotational players and Then trade ayton for two more rotational players. All four guys filling out different roles and can ACTUALLY play defense and will be available during the season. Not sure why they thought they needed another star?
They did get 2 rotation player for Chris paul. Beal and Jordan goodwin.Goodwin looks like a way better player then shamet
@@jesusv90 Cool bro idc
Did y’all watch the season at all? Didn’t the Nuggets just win the chip while being ranked 18th in defense?? Or do y’all ignore that so it fits your suns-hating narrative? Oh, and suns gave them their hardest series while only playing 13 games together. now they’ve just switched 38 cp3 for 29 Bradley Beal.
@@cheerioss-9121 Beal and Booker will be amazing for years to come once Durant leaves, plus if they want, they can trade Booker in the future for a Haul of draft picks and a couple good players in return.

They still need a facilitator.
If fox ever managed to secure some nba games then this three at a halftime show or pregame show would be hilarious
Broussard said they a hih-hop group 😂😂
It's interesting that some say KD is the best pure scorer (whatever that means) in history, and yet he is the second best scorer on his team.
KD won his last scoring title ten years ago.
Still plays better defense than booker though
This trade made me go ?
This my new Undisputed right now 😎🍻🍺
What an odd star power trade
The issue in Brooklyn was obvioulsy injuries and Kyrie's drama but also Steve Nash who had no system in place neither on offense or defense, the thing that Phoenix has going for them is that they brought Frank Vogel who is a defensive mind coach plus they kept Ayton I know people are down on him but Vogel usually maximizes Big men
Exactly. Lakers are stupid, Idk how you get rid of the coach who led you to title only two years before that..
I think the core of Booker KD Beal & Ayton is something people are really underestimating.
@pleasedonttemptme5963 they're going to get blown off the court whenever their stars are resting, they'll win a lot of games in the regular season, but this won't work in the playoffs, The stars will get a 10 point lead just to have the bench down by 15 by the time they come back
@@TonicBlaze12This is a different year. There have been ‘5’ different champions since 2019 so the field is open. Beal is a massive upgrade over CP3 who is aging and declining hard (Beal is ‘8’ years younger than Chris Paul)
I am not saying they will win, but it’s clear they are better, also adding Beal (23 ppg) allows them to keep at least 1 of their 4 stars (Booker KD Beal Ayton) on the court always so the bench is less important for them.
They were #4 in the West a top seed.. They can easily be that or better this season with this talent that much is clear
How do you know Nash had no system in place? You think Kyrie was trying to run it? lololol.
Even if they didn’t have any of those issues they are not winning a championship with lack of playoff level defense and rebounding. I’m a Nets fan too
Solid point regarding DB potentially playing a lot of minutes at PG Beal makes a much better two anyways. Booker has incredible handles and I think would make a very nice effective PG
In these playoffs, Booker led the league in scoring, shot 61 % from 2p, 51 % from 3p.
MPJ is on rhythm guitar
Maybe the suns can send ayton to the hawks for a capela centered package. Theyd probably need a third team to make it work but I think capela brings exactly what they need (rim protection and rebounding) and ayton could absolutely make the hawks better by giving them a true second/third option scorer.
Capela wit another good role player like bodganvanic to match ayton salary
That’s not good enough. They should trade with Brooklyn. Send Ayton there for Claxton, Finney Smith and ONeal.
@@Mektek19 Brooklyn not trading claxton
@@HOMMI2Elite They won’t trade Claxton for Ayton a borderline star? You would have a dynamic duo if Bridges and Ayton for the foreseeable future. It’s about securing their future they don’t need to win now.
@@Mektek19 nah facts but ayton dnt have tht drive n they specifically made claxton almost untradable n he jus coming off career highs n younger I deff feel but ayton n bridges would be a good combo they young improving plus ayton deff Gon get the ball more wit bk
Bruce brown
Christian Braun
Jeff Green
That's the nuggets bench stop acting like u need this super great bench
I guarantee if beal went to the lakers the media would magically think it's gonna work .......u know who the heats main bench was
Hightower
Martin
Lowery
Robinson
I never heard the media hype the bench up until its NARRATIVE TIME
Exactly! Denver only used 3 players off the bench and the Jeff green only played 12-15 minutes! Bench seems to be overrated
As far as bench players go those 3 are solid
Ppl forget that Beal was more of a off ball player earlier in his career wit Wall. N bro still Avg around 23 a game. N Beal does "fit" bc he does drives alot which they need and imagine Beal open on the perimeter cause of kd n Booker being doubled
“ and junk like that” 😂
This is the same crew that also thought lakers would beat denver.
Wrong once, wrong forever?
He was wrong once so everything he says is incorrect right?
They are bias nuggets are going back to back that’s what happens when you’re a Laker bandwagon
I don't think you watched the show 😢
tbh that series was a 4.5 points a game spread. lakers could of easily won each game if they made 1 more shot and denver (my team) missed 1 more. also murray went god
Who's gonna play defense
BROUSSARD YELLING IS UNWATCHABLE
Nick looking like Bram stokers Dracula 😅😂
Imagine they win a chip lmao
Nick said what we all were thinking about the Suns! Plus putting your faith in keeping KD happy is crazy he might love it one day want to be traded the next every where he goes the coach gets fired and he gets injured. Also CP3 wasn't the issue not having defense role players that can actually keep you ahead when these 3 are either resting hurt etc.?
The Brooklyn experiment didn’t work and this season really proved that you need a good overall team. This could be the worst trade this season.
So, when talking of KD and CP3, injuries don't have to be taken into account. OK.
This is a tire fire and I’m here for it.
Durant deferred to Booker because he didn't want to cause controversy. He's saying that it's Booker's team. But Booker isn't better than KD. KD just doesn't want to step on Booker's toes.
Nah… Kd doesn’t want to take the blame. he always gets away with no blame
Naw
Book is the best player on the team, its his team
Booker is better than KD at this moment. Durant barely even plays games. Can't be good if you don't even play.
@@nephhhhhhhow old are you?
Ayton and draft picks for Toppin and Mitchell Robinson . Try to get Rubio as a back up keep Craig Landale Lee can shoot the 3 same with T ross

Nope
It would be worse…
This show is the only show I follow great job guys :)
Suns are a bunch of lead singers all singing acapella.
If anything this segment just made me love the Juggetnauts' depth. Wildes could've gone 8 players deep to make the band list
Beal and Booker are essentially the same guy🫤
This will be the prototype "My turn, your turn" offense
KAT changing the game 😂😂
KD can’t win without a superteam let’s be honest here.
Winning a championship in the NBA is not guaranteed, even for super teams. While assembling a team with multiple star players increases the chances of success, there are various factors that can affect the outcome, such as injuries, team chemistry, coaching strategies, and the overall level of competition in the league. Winning a championship requires consistent effort, skill, teamwork, and a bit of luck.
So adding Bradley beal makes them a super team 🤣

LeBron has never won without a super-team either. Let's be honest here. See how that works.
Not a good trade, the suns r great on offense and bad on defense and weak bench and durant and booker r injury prone.
Only way this works is if Booker runs point and reduces his shot amount in favor of sharing more, and they trade Ayton for a great defensive/rebounding big and another 2 pieces for depth.

Shocker Nick doesn’t like the trade
it’s a bad trade if they don’t get depth
Nobody except Suns fans, some KD stans and the obligatory 3 or 4 guys in the media that will always support something, liked this trade.
The trade is trash.
"they're a hip-hop group" loooool. Go Brou
Three teams are over the second apron (183) currently; GS at 206, Clips at 194 and Phoenix at 192. Fine they can live over the second apron, it’s just expensive, limits options and reduces benefits, but for how long especially as only one team can win. Suspect all three make desperation moves at the start of the season to get under that apron and leave their teams unbalanced, plus create good value for smarter teams.
The worst part of this trade that nobody seems to be talking about is the fact that Beal retains his no trade clause. They are stuck with Booker, Beal, and Durant. At least Lakers got rid of Westbrook. If this doesn't work, it's, oh well.
It’s okay. KD will force his way out halfway through the season
They gave the nuggets their hardest series with 38 cp3 (injured majority of the series btw) and you think replacing that same 38 year old with Bradley Beal will be worse?? I’m genuinely trying to find the logic on this.
Did you not watch the games. Westbrook was awesome with the clippers. I actually didn’t notice Kawhi and Pg were out until late in game 4 I think it was.
Thats bananas they let him retain the no trade wtf
It's not well.

i feel like they have to trade Ayton and get a bunch of guys with good size and that can defend. you play Booker at the 1, Beal at the 2, KD at the 3, and fill out the rest of the roster with centers and forwards on the minimum for the most part. heavily rotate the 3 of them so that ideally you start all 3 but as the game progresses there's 2 on the court at a time. KD and Booker can't both be playing 42-45 mins per game in the playoffs.

Just open the lane for those guys to drop 50pts and hope that KD/Beal/Booker can out-score them with 3s.
@@tigera6that worked incredibly in brooklyn
Who’s going to initiate the offense and create shots? All 3 can get there own shot but they will be thin in depth again, shaky defensively and in a “win now” situation.
All three are good, or even great, passers.
Them talking about a trade before the offseason without seeing if they can get the depth is crazy 😂
So no one is gonna address how durant keeps moving from one super team to another
Besides Golden State, where else? He went to Brooklyn with Kyrie, but traded most of the depth to be able to join, and Harden was later traded for. Suns had Booker and CP who is not the same CP as before. Again, they traded their depth.
Does nick address lebron doing it ?
We don’t care that’s why, ..
@@brentt8940 at least others do and did
They said the same about James , KY, and Kd and them mf played flawlessly together. The injury bug is the only thing that beat them
Harden's assist numbers were good before he went to Brooklyn.
@@brownshit1 oookkk ??
@@brownshit1were you tryna disprove his point cause if so you failed miserably
I'll take prime harden, kyrie and KD over prime booker, beal and a 35 year old KD
Ballmer tried to buy a chip, didn’t work, Joe Tsai tried to buy a chip, didn’t work, and now Ishbia trying to buy a chip 😂😂😂
Worked for Toronto tho.... But I see ur point. 25% isn't great odds in terms of trying to buy a Chip.
Injury is the only concern. You can fill out your roster. But 3 players who play 60% of the season.....1 of those top 3 guys missed playoff games and they are done just like that. You mitigate that by having 1 superstar, 1 star and 5 good players and a couple hungry rookies
Chris paul has played for so many teams
thats because hes not a winner and a bad teammate. nobody actually likes him as a person
Because he a fraud
Wow. Another “block buster” trade by The Suns!!!
Pity the sun doesn’t shine at night🤔🤔
This is not fair
