Check out the What’s Wright? with Nick Wright podcast: sprtspod.fox/WhatsWright_YT
🤔💭See, you guys are wait and see guys. The spurs will have a good year. Victor They will have a better record than the Lakers in the West. This season😳😳😳😳😳 Remember, you heard it here first If you watch the tape of Victor and you see what they had last year It's going to throw sometimes off😇😇
Wonder when theyre going to be realistic about lebron the same way they are about kd.
Brou should rate every contending team on whether they're a "will win", "should win", or "can win" team.
That be a good segment
Yeah dude, that's a good description.
He rates everything by saying "it's fluid".
His version of Nick’s Tiers 😂😂😂
Add won't win and yea...
Brou really cooked this segment. The Will/Should/Can win was brilliant, and then when talking Jrue Holliday, he EXACTLY calls the Boston trade package (Brogdon and Williams). Great work.
"Will win" "Should win" "can win" is probably the best thing Brou has ever done on this show
Mhmm.
How about proposing the Zach Randolph trade for cookies?
@@12Chris6you mean Tobías Harris?
@@0A648 Lol! I took a shot in the dark. I missed badly
That has to be “close sweep”
Broussard hit the nail on the head with Jrue to Boston
This show is quite good. I love the chemistry and the formal analysis they bring to the table.
Chemistry is everthing..! You can stack any amount of stars together yet far from wining...! Don't sleep on lakers cause though they do not aquaire any big stars yet they got better role players.
They are in their BAAAAAG, when they talk about Basketball!🤝🏾
They look more excited talking about basketball too
Lmao wildes is hilarious bringing that up to start
It's how he gets back at Nick for showing the Mac Jones "tackle" every other week
the devin booker stat?
Chris rlly predicted the future with the Boston trade💀
Nick & Chris are great guests on Wildes' show
i know right? if only Nick would acknowledge the true star...
If I'm Philly or Miami, I'm trying my best to bring in Jrue Holiday. They're going to need him especially against the Bucks and the Celtics.
Clippers too
Yes because if you're in the East and you want to contend you got to do something right now. You can't just run it back with Boston and Milwaukee now having Reloaded.
Philly has the guy that wants out so they've got to make something happen
@@TheSwellow11nah
Philly and Miami need defender like Jrue... and he will be perfect fit for both of those teams
@@TheSwellow11 Since you have no idea what it will look like in 7 months I can let you know. Kawhi injured, clippers miss playoffs.
So glad they’re talking basketball again
This was one of the best analyzed segments by all three, contributing great perspectives and insights into teams, players and the media pov. worth rewatching!!
These 3 cover every base and I love it. The different perspectives address topics from every angle.
Holiday would fit Clippers well but he's probably not willing to go there knowing how injury prone Clippers main stars are.
You have to add can't win, shouldn't win to have the full spectrum of expectation.
@@TellenJonesHe's from LA so there's that
Chris sure nailed the Jrue Holiday trade !!!
"Your Nets" had me dying.
Key here is that Giannis gets someone that can find his own shot as needed, especially late in games. Giannis can cover Dames defensive deficiencies so long as the other defenders are also competent. Giannis and Dame pick n rolls coming your way, good luck and pick your poison
They are formidable because they are balanced. Their two best players are a Center and a SG, pretty much the deadliest combo you can get. Phoenix and Boston are too guard heavy in my opinion. I still got the Nuggets as the favorite. Ya all still sleeping on Jamaal Murray but he's gonna remind you it's all good.
@@user-rr3fo6hy9qJamal is just an anomaly. He deadass just goes into the zone for large stretches in the playoffs
I don't even like the nuggets but they are the favorites
I’ve been waiting four years to see a Jokic/Giannis matchup in the Finals. This will be as good a year as any.
Prozingus joker
Foreal Boston got them in 6 I ain’t even a Celtics fan and I like Giannis but casual fans don’t tune in and actually watch games Boston keeps beating themselves i understand losing but they literally throw games away it’s like they almost are rigging the game or something
Yes me too
Happy birthday Kd😘,im wishing you a championship on your way..we love you!
These people still not respecting Nuggets.
They'll learn again next playoffs
The Nuggets aren't "cultural" enough for rabbi wright.
@@Musso88 I think its more that the Nuggets are less exciting, so people tend to think about them less, despite the fact they they probably do have the best odds to win the title again.
@@dustinbrite2422that's why is so much sweeter when nuggets destroy all of them
Dubs fan here cut it out
Nuggets were favorites, suddenly 4th... Great, underestimate them once again
They were never the favorites😳🤯 They had Phoenix and Boston above them from the start😅😅
@@ronaldpatterson1701
Denver was tied with Boston last week. Phoenix was never above.
Its all gucci, no more of that delusional "Worst MVP ever" talk from Nick Wrong.
@flash012234 Man, soon as Beal went to Phoenix, they became the fav... you need to check your facts
@flash012234 They been trying to figure out why the disrespect to Denver 😅😅
And Celtics traded for Jrue. Battle between Bucks and Celtics should be pretty good.
"Ayton basically traded for a full bench unit" 😂😂 Wildes is too funny
He. Maaaaakes. This. Shooow. Most underrated mvp
@@Lu_Williams best host on television
The fact Nick said Hakeem is not a top 10 player for sure is beyond insane
the guy that literally had to teach lebron to try to be smooth with that robotic clunky footwork
It's not insane. NBA history just has that many greats.
Comparing Giannis to all those historic players makes no sense to me. He is not near top 15 ever.
Correction.. His resume isn't yet. But that can all change@@egama9360 Hakeem is better than Duncan/Shaq and Lebron in his prime. He was more skilled than all 3 of them. He lacks their resume, but if he had Kobe, or parker and ginobili and david robinson , we could easily be speaking of him in top 5. Lebron has a juiced resume but more failues than anyone in the top 5. Swept 3 times, gentleman swept an additional 3 times, missed 20% of entire career in playoffs. He's a stat machine and somehow they got him at #2. That's too generous as well
He said Hakeem is top 10. He said 9-15. In his best players list Hakeem was 9 or 10.
my boy brou was on the money with the jrue to boston trade
Wildes is on fire today! Love to see it!
Good call by Chris about Jrue
For Broussard to call that trade spot on is great !! Holiday got traded for willams and brogden 3 days later
Chris Broussard had Nets winning it all. Phoenix winning it all . Let's not forget the Clippers pick to win it all a few years back. This dude always gets over excited after every trade.
True
I mean nick had bucks winning it all last year lakers winning it last year, mavs winning it all last year and 76ers best in conference finals. Brou can get a lot wrong but he’s not as bad as nick
@@brentt8940yea nick and Chris be equally as wrong but Brou doesnt throw it in Nicks face like nick does and if they do get on nick he just acts like he was basically right anyways
@@stoveock6059 that’s fair
he's an idiot, no clue
Nick Wrong looking like the bad guy from the movie Die Hard
loving these longer segments!
Nick always finds a way to throw LBJ in the conversation 🙄
@truthbetold303 just like every news channel and analyst so GTFOH.
Suns and Celtics being over the nuggets is downright disrespectful
Suns was the only team to beat nuggets twice and that was without Chris paul.. if they are all healthy they have the fire power. People just don't like kd
But the Bucks who haven't played a single game with Dame yet is not considered disrespectful? Believe it or not, Celtics did get better by keeping 4/5 of their starting core but added to that with some bench depth. Nuggets kept their 5/5 core with the MVP (yes imo), but lost 2 of their key depth players and added no one else. As for the Suns, I don't 'know, I personally think it'll be another Nets situation minus the drama
@@madjames2392
They beat them when he was there too.
Nuggets lost some key role players in Bruce Brown and Jeff Green.
@@flash012234 he was dealing with a hamstring.. it didn't last long
Brou perfectly predicted holiday for Brogdan and Williams. BOSTON is all in…. ( need 1 more big though)
Brou called it with the Jrue prediction !
Brou hit the nail on head with the Celtics trade.
this show should have first takes ratings and viewership
Don’t matter, Jokic in 6 💪💪😤😤
For the past few seasons I've found myself anxious for the NBA season to start just after a couple of weeks of the NFL. Says something.
Says you like basketball more then football. That's all.
I want to see these new NBA teams play but the NFL regular season is more interesting than the NBA one. and then once the Super Bowl ends, we get the end of the NBA season and the playoffs. It's setup perfectly if you ask me.
@@edmeshiamclendon3489i actually like football more but the NFL is in a bad place right now. It’s just too predictable we know it’ll be probably chiefs or Miami vs probably the 9ers in the Super Bowl and it’s only been three weeks. The product feels watered down compared to past seasons. The difference between very good teams and very bad teams is way too big right now
The nfl season is like game of thrones and the nba season is like breaking bad
Says that your NFL team sucks I guess?
Wildes, your show is great! You and your supporting cast make a great team.
Giving Chris his props on this on cause I be getting at his takes at times.
142 games in 4 years together for Kawhi and PG lmfao so sad 😂
After Game 1 Nicks Confidence was boundless
Brou was right about Jrue’s destination this was good call and analysis.
the "haaaaa" from Wildes catches me off guard every time
Seems like whatever team gets the most recent all star traded on is the title favorites. If Suns had traded for Beal after Dame went to Bucks then the Suns would be the title favorite.
Facts, now if the dubs somehow suddenly acquire gobert with their core intact, these people fs hops in an instant and say it's ring or bust🤓
@@nassiglutt6587hell no not because of Gobert 😭
Truthfully it’s because Giannis is the second best player in the league at worse and Dame is the second best point guard in the league and top 11 player at worse.
Not really, Beal was a terrible fit and media mostly said the same thing and put Denver/Boston on the same level if not higher. Dame with Milwaukee’s front court is the perfect fit
@@Young-ep8ik odds has them west
@@nassiglutt6587 OP was talking about media narrative I assume. I could be wrong.
I would like to see Jrue go to the Pelicans..
Jrue
CJ
BI
Zion
Valincunas
This video doesn't work for me.... I've literally closed RUclips and reopened it like 4 or 5 times. This video just never loads.
Just waiting for Brou to bring in another segment called “wudda, cudda and shudda”
he better score as much because their overral defense is not the same anymore
I think Wildes makes an interesting point discussing chemistry but his previous graphic showed just 3 and 4 years ago teams winning the title that were brand new and put together at the start of that year. The Bucks didn't overhaul their roster. They simply traded a good point guard whose specialty was defense for an excellent point guard that is a top 5 offense all by himself. That seems like a much easier integration and not something that will hold the Bucks back.
Agree, it really is like kd's move to the warriors in a basketball perspective (but i guess still to a lesser extent)
It's going to be a plug and play kibd of move. Dame's a plug and play hooper as well imo
The disrespect of Middletown is absurd. Bro has been to the All-Star Game the past 3 years. Bucks have a legit Big-3 and a fully complimentary Big-3
I think this entire thing is underrating the Nuggets and Jokic. If Nikola stays motivated, he probably ends up a top 5 all time player
Stop he would have to win mvp after mvp and dominate offensively while improving a lot on defense. Giannis is gonna be in that convo with this trade
How long is Jokic going to keep his body in shape you think? He's already accomplished compared to centers of the past... 2 Back to Back MVPs, 1 💍 and Finals MVP? Only player to lead the Denver Nuggets, a team that hasn't seen a Finals ever, to their only Championship... not many players can relate to that... and Jokic, even if he retires tomorrow, he's convincingly a top 25 player of All Time... if he can keep himself motivated... maybe he wins another someday, but he loves his horses too much...
Bucks lose to Boston in 6
“ Stop he would have to win mvp after mvp and dominate offensively”
Oh you mean like how he won mvp in 2021? And again in 2022? And finals mvp in 2023? All while posting terrific defensive numbers in the championship run? And dominating offensively to a degree not seen since prime LeBron? You mean something like that?
@@tylerlivingston82 2 mvps and a ring doesn’t put you in convos with lebron you stat nerds need to stop. Jokic didnt have to play against a pull up 3 point threat and will be exposed when they play the bucks
I keep hearing wade and Bron didn’t fit well . But I’ve never seen a better fastbreak/alley oop combo in my life 💯 💯
They were also 25 and 28 years old in their primes.
@@jdankerdake okay…. Plenty of 25&28 years old playing together wym
@@lyricistproductions2174 Them being the two best players in the league in their primes gave them a higher ceiling and greater expectations than either the Dame/Giannis or KD/Book duos.
@@jdankerdake idk dirk , Durant, rose , cp3 , Dwight before lakers we’re all great as well . I’m probably missing some guys talking about 10 years ago kobe was declining
@@jdankerdake I do agree they both were top ten easily while wade was healthy
The Bucks must play wisely now. They must include the entire team in the game, you don't want to see only two players having the ball and the others to just fed up
Great take by brou
“..Your nets”😂😂
MJ didn't have wonder eye his GM had a wonder eye!!! To this day I still wonder why that GM wanted to break them up so bad? And 25 years later they still trying to put a winner together
Took us only 10yrs but the media is finally admitting that Lebron had it right. If the organization is not putting out a championship contender, the superstar player may have to leave and do it himself. In FA though, not demanding a trade after you just got a huge bag. Lebron honored all of his contracts and was free to move how he wanted. If you do that, it’s ok to change teams to win. Let’s not act as if all of the greats played for one team.
They not ready for that conversation
@@treychapo1898 wtf you mean they’ve BEEN having that conversation for years now… 😂😂foh not ready for that convo 😂😂😂
But others win more
LeBron started creating superteams with his friends, which led to KD doing it years later and that cost LeBron 2 rings. Lovely karma.
A certain player created a dynasty for a team stayed loyal (windy city) 😂
Bro predicted the celtics trade to every detail
Yo coming back to watch this after the Holiday trade. Bru got it EXACTLY right
Miami needs jrue holiday the most
Dame would've been better for MIA, and Dame called it.
Your NETS 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This the best nba talk group 😂❤
Nick "shove it deeper lefloppy" Wright 😂😂😂
Kd is the favorite every till the end it’s the end of the season then people forget or make a excuse
Dame now has more pressure than he’s ever had. Hope he delivers.
What? Dude took his team to the West finals with McCollum as his #2. This is the first time he’s ever played with a top 5 player and this will be the best defensive team he’s ever played on. There’s less pressure now than there has been since his first few years
@@bansheeofinisheerin this is the first time there’s ever been expectations of him winning a title and he has less pressure?
@@BoskoShabazz i think every year Dame had a lot if pressure.. because he is a superstar. And he is not some young scared player....he is fcking Dame Lillard
@@giannisksanthopoulos4300 lmao yea ok buddy. 😂 smh. Cause in 2020 he had the same amount of pressure like the amount he’s about to have.
@@BoskoShabazz what don’t you understand? People have been bashing him for 3 years saying he doesn’t care about winning. No one will be saying that anymore and he has maybe the best player in the league as a partner, and Giannis is the leader of the team. On what planet does that put more pressure on Dame? How does going from a #1 to a #2 put more pressure on him? If they lose, it’s going to be on Giannis as the best player, not Dame.
lol first time seeing nick in a while, he got them locks goin
Great show!
I honestly believe the Bucks should go after Jrue after this season. Truly believe they can make it happen numbers wise and Jrue wud love to go back as well and retire in Milwaukee 🔥
As for Giannis and Dame, theyll win at least one chip. They just need to do the work now 💯
kd missed a whole year brou 🤡
so happy we gettin decent bball talk again
since Shannon left
this show has been my daily watch
Mike Malone is mad
Suns vs Bucks rematch finals
“The lakers saw something “ ajajajaja
As a blazer fan I think a Dame vs Joker in the finals would be awesome. They always have entertaining series against each other. If I had to guess I’d say the bucks would be the favorites now that Dame has Gianni’s with him.
Blazer fam that explains why u think Bucks are favorites I'll take the Cel,Heat,Nuggs,Suns Dubs,Lakers over Bucks waaaaaa
@@EastBayIzm510it’s going to be heat vs bucks in the ECF, and the Bucks are the better squad. It will basically be Jimmy vs dame and Gianni’s. Dame and Gianni’s are going to be a problem
I dont see the Giannas Hype, a ball handler who cant shoot, his skills are limited, to me he would have to end up a top 10 scorer to be a top 10 player, have top 10 stats somewhere. He has 1 finals appearance so far, now all of sudden he going to 4 or 5 cant see it.
He is over-rated to me.
Thats causw all you look at is "bags" and don't understand basketball. The guy is the only one that can cover both the pick and roll! In transition he is unstoppable and every drive the ppponent has to help otherwise it's an easy 2. Not everything is about ball handling and shooting lmao.
@user-gc1wj8tt2p He is a taller, better defensive Westbrook in his prime.
Nick’s point about bron nd the other players were spot on. Lebron didn’t leave the Cavs just for no reason he left because the organization didn’t take winning championship’s seriously which is what ur judged on as a player. Steph never left because the warriors never gave him a reason to. Kobe himself said he was going to leave if the lakers didn’t make some changes after Shaq left. Nd on nd on. MJ never left because the bulls didn’t give him a reason to.
What? They never took it seriously????? Cavs were top 3 seed from 2007 onwards!!!
you LBJ supporters are just clowns acting as though the Cavs did nothing! They BUILT around d LBJ and gave him everything possible to win!!! they were fav in 2009 and 2010 - it was LBJ that failed them 🤦♂️
No one had a problem with Lebron leaving the Cavs, they had a problem with him teaming up with 2 other top 5 picks from the 2003 draft, one who already won a championship. Then they had a parade in Miami with Bron claiming they would win not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4… Then to have the worst performance ever by a superstar in the finals, that’s when the issues came in for Lebron. But he’s redeemed himself in my opinion.
@@bjrowland25 No one cares?!!! No u may not care but plenty of people criticize him for that. Secondly no argument he underperformed in 2011 however people need to stop taking jokes so seriously. When he said not 1 not 2 etc….. it was a joke. They were all up there laughing about it and having a good time. Lastly he joined D wade and Chris Bosh nd yes they had a great team however it wasn’t like bron was able to take a backseat and chill they’re were plenty of moments were he had to carry that team. (Not all the time like he had to with the Cavs but plenty of times he did)
They literally gave lebron everything he wanted lebron just wasn't good enough which is why he needed to other hall of famers and still lost more then he won
@@fullmetal1766 what are u talking about?
Best show in sports right now. And it's not even close...😂
Flipping CP3 & future draft picks for Jure Holiday would be huge for the DUBS.
Continuity isn't anymore relevant than it always would be regarding the Bucks. The offseason before they won the title the Bucks with Giannis and Khris on the roster traded for Jru Holiday. They now, with the same big pieces, trade for Dame. What is the difference?
Offense
@@BuffKangaroo1lmao😅🤣🤣😅... The fact he had to ask the difference between Dame and Jru shows how casual he is 😅🤣🤣🤣
You guys missed his point
@@lamz3567 please stay off the internet because if you really want to look ignorant in this discussion of Dame or Tru?
Maybe if you can do math lmao.
What's Tru season average and then what's dame?
Also, do you even understand pick the pick-n-roll game plan at all?
But please go on
@@nicholassimmonsthomas8504 LOL. what are you on about?
Jokic is more in the top 9 to 15 than Janis. Just Nick does not know about basketball beside dunking. Jokic has the chance to enter the top 10 more than Janis. Janis got stopped in his prime in the playoffs, but no one found a solution for Jokic when he had his 2nd in the playoffs healthy. Nick stop hate for Jok because it shows that you do not understand basketball and that is your job bro. Gave Jok his flowers
It’s Giannis! Not Janis
Beauchamp and Andre Jackson Jr are the youth movement that need to be decent defenders slashers and versatile play for sure from Andre I like his game and I expect Crowder Pat Beasley to be better and Portis might have his best year yet coming back from the Fiba Basketball
new nba segment the “can win, will win, should win” for the upcoming nba season
Nick trying to say Giannis isn’t loyal even though he’s still on the bucks and never asked for a trade😂
He’s referring to what Giannis said recently. It was obvious what he meant lol
lescuses if i ever heard them

I gotta give it up to Fox Sports on their YT videos. Cutting out the most important parts to add context makes me want to watch the full show. I wont do it cause im not paying for cable but still....props
Brou's entire argument was DEMOLISHED the moment Nick Wright said, "YOUR NETS"
As a Bucks fan and as a Jrue Holiday fan I'd prefer if Jrue did not go to a contender, I'd hate to have to play him in the playoffs despite being roasted by Jimmy Butler because of Buds bad coaching. He's clutch on both sides of the ball. Giannis and Dame I don't think it matters who you are. I'd like to see him go to Dallas and for Luca to make it to the finals and be steam rolled by the Bucks.
Lillard will give him 60
if you were in jrue's shoes you wouldn't want to be on a trash team either 😂
@@michaelsevilla3697 That was a goofy comment basically in the first part saying I respect his game enough to not want to play him, then realizing it don't really matter with Dame, Giannis, and Middleton.
How incredibly knowledgeable, pleasing to hear and reasonable Nick gets when the conversation is NOT around LeBron will never stop baffling me....
Kyrie Harden or Jrue in Heat culture would be crazy🔥🔥🔥
Injury and other stuff happen to
Kd in okc seem like a trend outside pf golden st.
Steph has the same amount of championships than Lebron without jumping from team to team chasing rings, Steph has a winning record against Lebron including 17-11 record in the playoff, defeated Lebron twice in the finals, but somehow Nick “believes” that Lebron is top five and Steph is top 15. Lebron’s cheerleaders are so pathetic. 😂
Don't forget Curry won all his titles in full fledged NBA seasons, while 2/4 Lebron titles came in a lockout shortened season and a Disneyland pandemic bubble.
@@replicantona Good point
LeBron has more MVPs, more FMVPs, more points, more rebounds, more assists, and if you want to go with averages he still averages more points, assists and rebounds. Oh he also has more all nba teams, more all defensive teams. And Steph has never outplayed LeBron in a series.
@@siba2379 again with the counting stats and longevity, and stop lying Curry CLEARLY outplayed Lebron both in the play-in as he did in this year's 2nd round. AD and his defense + ridiculous FT disparity were Steph's competition, not Lebron at all.
Giannis Atemptafreethrow isn't in the same tier as Bird, Hakeem, and KD. Dude has lost in first round too many times to lower seeds. Also has a too big of hole in his game. Can't close and doesn't want the ball.
You're only right about bird and hakeem
casual take
50 and 14 with 5 blocks to seal a Finals isn’t closing?
Ahhhhhh!! Im a Blazer fan and I cant wait to watch Buck games.😱😱
Welcome brother
