THAT'S BS... Last year, JAYLEN BROWN signed a 300 million dollar contract, reporter asked what are you going to do with all of that money and the first thing he says is try to bring back BLACK WALL STREET and help bridge the economic gap....but all of a sudden, he's not liked??????? FOH!!!!!!!!!
What makes you think black excellence is something mainstream media wants to hear? And why do you not see this is what hurts his brand in the eyes of certain brands that cater to more than just the black community?
@@jonsin7697 First off Jaylen brown said in the same interview that he believes fixing the disparity in the wealth gap for blacks uplifts the entire economy. Entire. Not just blacks. You're worst than Stephen A with the false narratives. Athletes get paid to drink a drink in a commercial. And that helps the brand. Kids and people don't have to see or hear anything else but that. Brands do it all the time. You're making excuses for injustice. So every black player that wants to help their own black community should be shunned and blackballed. Imagine that then you would have true black voices drowned out and looked down upon as last place. Oh wait that explains the racial wealth gap. You still think it's cool to undermind black people voices that stand for black uplifting. Then you're part of the reason for the disparity in the racial wealth gap for blacks and why America is falling.
Stephen A. Smith was responding IN REAL TIME to what one of his sources alleged about Jaylen Brown......a view that Stephen A DISAGREED with on air. What's the problem?
@@rondiggity1677Forget naming the source. If you mention something in public you deserve to get a response in public. Stephen A could have easily said he won’t name the source and moved on. But he continues to rant about being betrayed because of someone else’s public opinion 😂
Shocker, Brown playing the best basketball of his career, leading the Celts to the finals and ESPN gotta start some BS narrative to take away from it, just shut TF and report on REAL stories!
its not bad journalism if the source is reliable why would he as a journalist just not say what he was told? He did what good journalist does. He stated what as told to him by a source and clarified he doesn't know if this is true but you can't know no one can.

Thank you, this is the comment right here. It is clear Stephen A was being used and this clown didn't see it. Someone has a grudge against JB. He was one of the few players that spoke up against Kyrie slander, he is outspoken about racial issues and VP of the players association. Someone has an agenda against him.
@DarricSmith-vt1ci you're missing the point. Who doesn't want to make more money, especially when that $300 is cut by at least 40%. Taxes, dues, agents, etc. all come into play. He's not taking home that amount. Endorsements coming from being marketable. If you think he doesn't want endorsements, then something is wrong.

Stephen A tried to slander Jaylen Brown with his fake source. He also tried to bring Jay Will and Big Perk into it but they dodged the question. Go back to last week and watch that segment.
@SayWhat336 I disagree. Stephen A is the one who went public with it without calling Jaylen or Isiah. Whoever goes public with their comments first should reach out, particularly with comments like this. Give them a heads up at the very least. Sounds like they were both surprised to hear it, which leads me to believe Stephen A didn't bring it up to them beforehand, which is messed up.
@jalalstephens7457 It doesn't matter. He still went public with it first. If he is going to bring up matters like this on a public platform, he shouldn't be surprised with a public response if he didn't address it with them beforehand.
Stephen A. Smith is speaking from both sides of his mouth. He is building and breaking a person, so that others can say he means well. Express your sentiments without hiding behind some sources that you can't even reveal. Don't pretend you care about Jaylen Brown, while at the same time, you are slandering him.
@@taiwooshodi1937 you clearly didn't watch the entire video. SAS refuted the source live on air. Never said he was arrogant. Didn't insinuate it. Nothing.
@@willemlouis1007 he said these statements said by the source that he didn't agree with not once did he down talk jaylen. He gave nothing but praise. Y'all just hear what y'all want to hear.
They don’t like Jaylen brown because he’s a literal genius. The guy was taking graduate classes and on the varsity chess team as a freshman at cal. He teaches at MIT, was the youngest NBAPA Vice President EVER. When he was being drafted. Teams were worried that he’d get bored with basketball because he’s so smart. That being said, I’m not surprised “people around the league” don’t like him. Nothing scares folks in America like a black man who is exceptionally smart, and knows it.
Espn is racist platform litterly made up lie Jaylen brown definition what role model is he 7juice foundation is powerful he speaking om youth an pay grade in America Stephen a is clown 🤡 he report that fake story Brandon Mcmanus nfl kicker 2 sexual assault never show on espn Stephen a is sick an hypercrit
Instead of covering how well JB was playing at the beginning of the playoffs, ESPN decided to dump on Tatum during wins instead of MARKETING how well JB plays… ESPN mentions JB’s greatness primarily to derogate JT or compare the two teammates
The espn media and the les ur owners seem to hate Black strength and confidence the way that Jaylen Brown possesses it. He is objectively brilliant, legendarily talented, beautiful, effervescent, and he knows it. It’s what they HATE. Lol. Oh and he’s a caring kind person!!!
Thomas don't owe you a phone call. State your source or don't speak about him in that tone. Everyone has their opinion but to say he isn't marketable is ludicrous.
He can’t say who the source is y’all over here acting like y’all would if he did that he would never get any information that mean he wouldn’t be able to do his job
Did Stephen A Smith call Isiah Thomas And Jaylen Brown first before releasing this on the show ?...they wouldn't responded they responded publicly if you did it first !!
Isiah Thomas and the Detroit pistons are the reason and responable for NBA players getting chartered flights and stay in 5 star hotels . TOP 3 PG OF ALL-TIME
SAS has such a sh*t stained reputation, history, and record that I’m not suprised he took no accountability. His personality is so played out. It’s the same things from him every morning.
Trade Stephen A to FS1 for Nick wright, Chris Broussard and bring back Max Kellerman, Stephen A can reunite with skip, and we all get analysts that we actually like and wanna hear from
What has to do with the answer from SAS , I don't like him lots of times , but he's not really wrong on this one ,, and yeah has nothing to do with Thomas play the game or no .
Isiah was considered the 2nd best point guard after Magic Johnson. He won 2 chips and was cheated out of a 3peat. Made the 1980 Olympic Team but the 🇺🇸 boycotted. Didn't make the 1992 Dream Team bc Jordan said if Isiah was on the team he won't play. Jordan didn't like Isiah bc Isiah eliminated him from the playoffs 3 years in a row
Jaylen Brown isn't marketable simply because he's a well educated Black man who stands up for other Black folks...so for someone like SAS who has a ton of power at ESPN and only speaks about Jaylen Brown when their taking shots at Jayson Tatum that's also apart of the problem.
You should know better SAS. When you quote or cite a source, it is to support your point. By quoting an “anonymous” executive, you are indirectly saying Jaylen Brown is not marketable. Why even bring it up if you think otherwise.
bingo. I was watching live when he said it and it was blasphemy. J. Brown hasn't been getting the credit he deserves. If anything S.A.S. always brings up J. Brown's contract pocket watching!
…what schooling did you go to that made you believe that Lmaoo you can site a source to further your point or to counteract something. Nowhere in American literature is quoting a source solely for support LMFAOOOOO dumb af I swear
You don't say your source on live TV if your source doesn't want to be named. That's how you lose credibility and other sources. That's why you're not a reporter...........

Oh my goodness, stop crying. Worry about yourself. Like that is the most glorifying hating statement I ever heard. Go earn your keep, and quit pocket watching.
Stephen A Smith, Isiah Thomas is a former NBA Player who was Champion twice and a Hall Of Famer.

Watched Jaylen Brown speak at the Berkeley Forum years ago. JB is one of the most impressive athletes and persons I’ve heard speak. The problem is society loves athletes to follow a certain mold but what JB gives us is so much more.
I’ve been saying for years people don’t like him because he is “different” than others in the NBA in terms of intellect level. It’s not his fault he’s more wise and intelligent than people like Lebron who didn’t even go to college lmao. Jaylen was an AP student in high school too I’m pretty sure.
He can't get interviews with any of the top NBA stars anymore, that's why he throws shade and talks down on Lebron/KD/ Kyrie etc. They dont respect Stephen A and won't sit down with him so he uses his platform to trash them.

Stephen A : "I don't want enemies "
Also Stephen A to KD: "you don't want to make an enemy out of me"
😂
and stop with the fake love for Kyrie
Man I was saying the same thing
WHY BRING THIS UP? WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE? USING PEPLE TO FURTHER YOUR DIMINISHING CAREER
Stephen A tried to slander Jaylen Brown with his fake source. He also tried to bring Jay Will and Big Perk into it but they dodged the question. Go back to last week and watch that segment.
Stephen A is upset that Isiah went public with it on Twitter when he is the one who said it on national television before that!
Unbelievable
Isaiah is the one who had a problem, he should've called to explain
Stephen A reported what he was told not his opinion
@SayWhat336 I disagree. Stephen A is the one who went public with it without calling Jaylen or Isiah. Whoever goes public with their comments first should reach out, particularly with comments like this. Give them a heads up at the very least. Sounds like they were both surprised to hear it, which leads me to believe Stephen A didn't bring it up to them beforehand, which is messed up.
@jalalstephens7457 It doesn't matter. He still went public with it first. If he is going to bring up matters like this on a public platform, he shouldn't be surprised with a public response if he didn't address it with them beforehand.
Stephen A. Smith is speaking from both sides of his mouth. He is building and breaking a person, so that others can say he means well. Express your sentiments without hiding behind some sources that you can't even reveal. Don't pretend you care about Jaylen Brown, while at the same time, you are slandering him.
Name one slanderish thing Stephen A said about Jaylen.
@@ChaseNSmoke, pretty much called him arrogant while trying this by a source, giving him back handed compliments and being duplicitous!
@@taiwooshodi1937 you clearly didn't watch the entire video. SAS refuted the source live on air. Never said he was arrogant. Didn't insinuate it. Nothing.
@@ChaseNSmoke that's not slanderous to you,when he said JB thinks he is better than everyone else and that he is not marketable?
@@willemlouis1007 he said these statements said by the source that he didn't agree with not once did he down talk jaylen. He gave nothing but praise. Y'all just hear what y'all want to hear.
They don’t like Jaylen brown because he’s a literal genius. The guy was taking graduate classes and on the varsity chess team as a freshman at cal. He teaches at MIT, was the youngest NBAPA Vice President EVER. When he was being drafted. Teams were worried that he’d get bored with basketball because he’s so smart. That being said, I’m not surprised “people around the league” don’t like him. Nothing scares folks in America like a black man who is exceptionally smart, and knows it.
Espn is racist platform litterly made up lie Jaylen brown definition what role model is he 7juice foundation is powerful he speaking om youth an pay grade in America Stephen a is clown 🤡 he report that fake story Brandon Mcmanus nfl kicker 2 sexual assault never show on espn Stephen a is sick an hypercrit
Y y’all think y’all supposed to slander people n think they can say nothing back
It was slander and you messed up. Take accountability.
Facts!!!
🎯
@ConservativeN-Bombright ! I’m saying these dumbasses have no logic 🤣🤣🤣
Where’s the slander? He reported something he received, and he IMMEDIATELY went against that narrative right after reading it.
Saying a basketball player is not marketable is an opinion... Not slander.
He didn't say Jaylen Brown commits crimes or does irresponsible actions
Instead of covering how well JB was playing at the beginning of the playoffs, ESPN decided to dump on Tatum during wins instead of MARKETING how well JB plays… ESPN mentions JB’s greatness primarily to derogate JT or compare the two teammates
They like to start beef foe ratings
Man if Boston don't win the championship this year. You think the Tatum and brown era is over ? I was thinking about that .
The espn media and the les ur owners seem to hate Black strength and confidence the way that Jaylen Brown possesses it. He is objectively brilliant, legendarily talented, beautiful, effervescent, and he knows it. It’s what they HATE. Lol. Oh and he’s a caring kind person!!!
Thomas don't owe you a phone call. State your source or don't speak about him in that tone. Everyone has their opinion but to say he isn't marketable is ludicrous.
Like he said Isaac Thomas is a source to many media personalities so y should SAS provide his source cmon
yep if he didnt even agree with the sources comments, blurting it to a wider audience just not a good look man makes no sense
So state his source and lose his job to keep it real ?
He can’t say who the source is y’all over here acting like y’all would if he did that he would never get any information that mean he wouldn’t be able to do his job
@@ronhawkins1824 exactly unless you gon pay me the salary I’m making I’m not doing anything just because you disagree with what I’m doing
Did Stephen A Smith call Isiah Thomas And Jaylen Brown first before releasing this on the show ?...they wouldn't responded they responded publicly if you did it first !!
STEPHEN A. YOUR CANCELLING IS COMING SOON. YOU CANT KEEP TEARING PEOPLE DOWN LIKE YOU "TRIED" TO DO WITH KYRIE.
Stephen A beefs with a new person every 5 days! What is going on with you man?
Lol Wow!
LeBron and the Knicks are out of the play-offs. He has to much time on his hands.
Beefin' is his bread and butter, sucking in all the viewers like a black hole, no pun intended, fr, lol
@@anotherelvisFACTS 😂😂
And when it's like that you have to check self because you are the problem.😂😂
Was this the same executive that said Jaylen Brown was “too smart” for the NBA?! 😤
Isiah Thomas and the Detroit pistons are the reason and responable for NBA players getting chartered flights and stay in 5 star hotels . TOP 3 PG OF ALL-TIME
Let it be known!
Explain it
@@k9m30a51 I just did bot
@@DirtMcgerk maybe u don’t actually know how perhaps
@@DirtMcgerkhow did the pistons and Isiah Thomas get the NBA players charter flights and 5 star hotels? Genuinely curious
Where was SAS sources when the Josh Giddy thing was happening? SAS was to afraid of being Sued
Keep disrespecting Jalen. Keep disrespecting him, Stephen.
🏆
SAS has such a sh*t stained reputation, history, and record that I’m not suprised he took no accountability. His personality is so played out. It’s the same things from him every morning.
Stephen A is nothing but a stooge and should be treated as such.
Yall notice how Molly didn’t interrupt this time! 😂😂
Espn was reading the comments, she doesnt interrupt nearly as much anymore.
@@beazy3364she still does with her 🤡 self
She used to be much worse a few years ago
You could tell she's been checked behind the scenes
@@hedon5028 YEP! Lolll
The problem was he gave a point of view and didn’t advocate for Jaylen.
When you spoke on Jaylen did you reach out to him before you spoke?
ESPN: it’s time to trade Stephen A and start a rebuild.
You’re a fool 😅.
Don’t watch the show instead.
😂😂😂 classic
How Much Help does Monica Mcnut NEED!!?😭
Trade Stephen A to FS1 for Nick wright, Chris Broussard and bring back Max Kellerman, Stephen A can reunite with skip, and we all get analysts that we actually like and wanna hear from
@@Kevin.Costner.are you a bot bro ? 15 comments in the same section type wild af 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn’t Isiah play the game 🧐
Yeah but he couldn't make the Dream Team.
@@KNByamthen he spent decades begging everybody to tell him why he didn't make it 😂.
Yea he was the leader on a champion team 😂😂😂😂
What has to do with the answer from SAS , I don't like him lots of times , but he's not really wrong on this one ,, and yeah has nothing to do with Thomas play the game or no .
Isiah was considered the 2nd best point guard after Magic Johnson. He won 2 chips and was cheated out of a 3peat. Made the 1980 Olympic Team but the 🇺🇸 boycotted. Didn't make the 1992 Dream Team bc Jordan said if Isiah was on the team he won't play. Jordan didn't like Isiah bc Isiah eliminated him from the playoffs 3 years in a row
Jaylen Brown isn't marketable simply because he's a well educated Black man who stands up for other Black folks...so for someone like SAS who has a ton of power at ESPN and only speaks about Jaylen Brown when their taking shots at Jayson Tatum that's also apart of the problem.
Then why did you find it necessary to read that text message?
Why did you SAS bring up what that source said if you thought it wasn't true?
SAS knows everybody for over 30 years.
You gotta watch when they do him on SNL 😂 that’s like 70% of the jokes
Lmaoo
Shannon "We aint got to agree" after SAS goes on a rant on how dare anyone not agree with him for putting that out😂
Terrell Owens says you're lying at the end Stephen A
@ConservativeN-Bomb yeah he knows a black person when he sees one
Lots of he said-she said content coming from our "Worldwide Leader in Sports" these days.
"I lose friends, I get dogs"... #Wild 😂
Jaylen Brown earned everything the league ever gave him. Yall giving shoe deals to NOBODYS
Agree ! Ja morant as a shoe deal and he’s a bust ! It’s crazy how they pick & chose who’s marketable
You should know better SAS. When you quote or cite a source, it is to support your point. By quoting an “anonymous” executive, you are indirectly saying Jaylen Brown is not marketable. Why even bring it up if you think otherwise.
bingo. I was watching live when he said it and it was blasphemy. J. Brown hasn't been getting the credit he deserves. If anything S.A.S. always brings up J. Brown's contract pocket watching!
…what schooling did you go to that made you believe that Lmaoo you can site a source to further your point or to counteract something. Nowhere in American literature is quoting a source solely for support LMFAOOOOO dumb af I swear
You don't say your source on live TV if your source doesn't want to be named. That's how you lose credibility and other sources. That's why you're not a reporter...........
@@Heros_GamingYTthen don’t bring it up goofy
@@jazmelrivera5122 That's his JOB to bring up sources GOOFY. How many times have you seen a sports show and someone said, "Sources have said (Insert athlete" blah blah blah.
Sounds like Stephen A. has to claim “I’m on top right now” because he has a deep insecurity. It all comes out when his words are challenged and he is incapable of seeing the validity of another’s point of view. Sad. Overpaid braggadocio. Enough is enough. SAS deserves to be called out!
🎯🎯🎯
The point is WHO IS SAYING IT???? someone who has never had a conversation with Jaylen brown? Cut it out.
If anyone is unlikeable it’s Stephen A.
Stephen A is so cocky and condescending. Life chooses the wrong people to be generous to.
That's deep and heavy!
Oh my goodness, stop crying. Worry about yourself. Like that is the most glorifying hating statement I ever heard. Go earn your keep, and quit pocket watching.
Stephen A Smith, Isiah Thomas is a former NBA Player who was Champion
twice and a Hall Of Famer. He owned
the CBA, Executives Positions, on some
NBA Teams, was President of NBPA, that represented NBA Players. He holds
a Master Degree in Education, from UC
Berkeley and he holds a BA in Criminal
Justice. He owns several businesses.
A journalist can still be sued for slander
Stephen A Smith and possibly lose the
case or settle or the case get dismissed
or the journalist held accountable and
company or only company held accountable.
I can assure you Stephen A Smith, that you are not really that knowledgeable in Tort Law/Civil Law and Criminal Law.

“You dont speak up for black women.” Lavelle Crawford😂
Don't write every check that sources can't cash Stephen A
Why are these hosts crying because someone responded to their criticism? If you criticized him in the media why they heck they can't respond in social media? what's the big deal
Why did he even bring it up ? What’s the purpose behind the whole thing
Stephen and Shannon somehow bringing this back to social justice and being black was the best handling skills I’ve ever seen. Just stand on business about what you said and what your job is. Don’t try and pull the “good brotha” card it’s getting crazy now 😂
Absolutely pathetic. These guys talk bad and then cry woof!
@13:29 "maybe you need a dog, ya i loose friends, i get dogs." Lolol Shay and S.A. are perfect on this show. They sound like 2 uncles at a family BBQ!!! lolol
Thats not slander, a journalist will not state a source. Stephen A is known to snitch however. He just dry snitched on zeke.
That part
By saying he has been a source before? We all know it. How is that news?
@@siyabongakunene5052 we all didn't know that.
@@mostmost1 come on bro 🤦
@@siyabongakunene5052 dude nobody checking for stephen a sources, especially when he wrong most the time.
Isaiah is right. Send SAS back to journalism school.
Why repeat what an unnamed source said that was straight gossip? You said it publicly so the response by Isaiah or JB should not be private.
This dude crashed straight into a Pepto Bismol factory
Underrated comment.
Shannon: we gotta stop being mad about everything….SO WHY WERE YOU MAD AT MIKE EPPS?
All Facts!!
Lmfao are you a sped? Mike Epps was literally lying on Shannon’s name by saying that Shannon wanted him to come on club Shay Shay 🤣
Who else was he mad at? He said EVERYTHING not some things 🙄
Didn't they both squash that?!?!?
@@DarkNight4527they did but shannon got really sensitive after that katt interview because it brought more eyes so ofc memes and jokes were going to come at his expense. That comes with more exposure and notoriety with the money and fame. He wanted to interview comedians and thing he was absolved from jokes
SAS you were not humane with Kyrie
“I lose friends I get dogs” haha legend
State your source Stephan A. If you’re gonna say something like this, then let’s state the source.
You in that seat because your controversial not because you know what your talking about
And you're here watching him for the same reason. I don't get fools like you. Why do you watch things or people you don't enjoy?
Stephen A. Aways try to destroy players carreers or lives...
He is always trying to invent a narrative.
Watched Jaylen Brown speak at the Berkeley Forum years ago. JB is one of the most impressive athletes and persons I’ve heard speak. The problem is society loves athletes to follow a certain mold but what JB gives us is so much more.
I’ve been saying for years people don’t like him because he is “different” than others in the NBA in terms of intellect level. It’s not his fault he’s more wise and intelligent than people like Lebron who didn’t even go to college lmao. Jaylen was an AP student in high school too I’m pretty sure.
Did Brown say anything unrelated to him being black or black people in the speech,?
They should have pointed out that the problem is the market. Jaylen Brown's activism should make him more marketable, not less.
JB is a class act that invests in the black community. That was clearly slander and now they’re hiding behind a ‘source’.
He can't get interviews with any of the top NBA stars anymore, that's why he throws shade and talks down on Lebron/KD/ Kyrie etc. They dont respect Stephen A and won't sit down with him so he uses his platform to trash them.
“I lose friends I get dogs” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Why is shannon sharp commenting for SAS 😆
“I don’t just talk the game, I cover it.” Well they played Stephen A 🤣🤣
He wasn’t talking to them. He was talking to all these people who have basketball podcasts and internet trolls who think they know something
@@yarapah man it’s all opinionated. People who don’t make music speak on what artists/producers should be doing but aren’t in that field themselves.. does that mean they can’t speak on music because they aren’t in that field? Nah people sound stupid regardless of what side of the fence they’re on
this is like watching The View
SAS been covering the NBA for 30years still has the same good take % as KATs FG% in the WCF after his 1500 shots a day
I hope ESPN reads these comments.
How are you going to be mad that you made a public statement and someone responded to you on a public platform
