Listen to What’s Wright with Nick Wright: sprtspod.fox/WhatsWright_YT
jaylen is better than jt
I don't know what a pin message is. I Google it lol it and the definition made me more confused
“Do I look surprised?”. “Well you’re not on camera so no one knows”. 😂🤣😂🤣😂
😂😂😂
Brou went 9 for 9 at the line this segment
I wonder what most made ft in a game by a single player making 100% in a game is.
@@PipleZiple acclrding to google its james harden 24 for 24
“Do I look surprised?”
You’re not on camera, we can’t see you.
Put me on camera! Now do I look surprised? 😂😂😂
Facts over feelings had Nick stuttering 😂😂
😂
But, but, but, but I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm... Sa, sa, sa, sa, sa, so you... 😂😂😂
He’s a clown.
💀💀💀
Facts over feelings made Nick look like one of those defenders trying to guard Steph for a full series. Just lost at times.
i love how they always reference their production meetings and don’t try to pretend all these topics are brand new and they’re debating it off the dome makes it feel much more realistic and analytical
Well they’re able to do that because they have enough argument and nuance to their takes to still hold the full discussion for TV.
The back and forth we get to see IS organic, they just brief each other on the topics before hand.
Other shows you can tell are not like this and it’s all theatre.
Jokic: *has a bad game in the playoffs*
Everyone: "LMAO worst B2B MVP ever"
Embiid: *has a bad game/doesn't even play in the playoffs*
Everyone: "Well I mean it's his team's fault"
I mean he did come off an injury
"I agree" is one of the many reasons this show is so great. Not gonna force a try-hard debate between its two leads just because they think they have to
Love to see Broussard dominating Nick Wright.
Pause?
SUS bro
Nick is always in his feelings 😭
It’s annoying
More than his wife during her period 😂
Nick brings up lebrons entire career history in the playoffs but dismisses embiid playoff history 😅
What point are you trying to make? Embiid has no prior playoff success
@@cuecue3277 that was the point he was making.
@@blairbryan4040 I just had to make sure lol
Anytime he can go down on LeBron you best believe he’s gonna do it
Nick is the KING at using something to diminish a player he doesnt like yet neglects that same thing in an argument for a player he likes
Did Nick just say it was expected for the team with the MVP to get blown out in game 2? 😂
Nicks ability to shred bogus stats on the fly is so low key impressive.
@@justkilledit217 out of 10 at best
That’s a valid stat tho the Celtics own embiid
@@jonathonfulmore7097 honestly 70% is still pretty impressive fr 😂
@@justkilledit21 3 out of 10 if you're lucky.
@JustKilledIt21 he had the Mavericks winning the title this year and last year
Nick Wright got that velociraptor screech for a laugh.
Nick stuttering and back tracking is hilarious when Brou dominates the conversation.
3:37 thank you Broussard. It reminds me when people bring up all time records of teams against each other. Like what does the records of the 1960s have to do with this year?
I agree with you, but in this segment both Nick and Brou brought up irrelevant stats from the past tbh
"but no.....that's..that's..that's....."
Hahaha he got called out and had no comeback.
@@jacopobottoni8597that’s true Broussard did it as well. At least with his point was the same “core players” are on the Celtics from 2018 with Tatum and Brown, even Smart.
Brou killed Nick Wrights bias today. Tries to say 2020 playoffs are irrelevant to the 76ers and Celtics yet the Heat beat the bucks in 2020 and beat them this year. So it’s quite relevant. Nick shows his bias so hard it’s getting a little weird.
Sixers are a completely different team from 2020 and the heat are still pretty much the same team
Neither of those things are relevant.
@@samuelgaona7196 Lmao Same Coach, star player and even Harris. Boston also has the same key players.
Ben missed the whole 2020 series, Joel was alone
@@xcwilliams7980 they’re definitely relevant. idk if you guys have played sports before but losing to the same team over and over takes a toll on your mental ability to play well against said team.
Nikki Wright sounded like his feelings got hurt when they werent buying his BS
You know he lost when he starts filibustering
I like Nick, but Nick is tripping if he thinks the 6ers are winning this one
Fax
He hates the Celtics so I'm not surprised
U are on drugs if you think the Celtics are that good
@@daniell5740 youre the one on drugs celtics are legit and i am not even a fan
@@daniell5740 Oh the same team that has beat Philly out of the playoffs for over 10 years and has made it to the ECF 4 times out of the past 6 years including a Finals appearance last year? That team isn’t good? Oh….
Nick got mollywhopped this segment!
Stuttering all over the place lol
Chris destroyed Nick this segment!!!
It's hysterical the stats that Nick brings up and holds a lot of stake towards while dismissing other people's stats and getting flustered. Feelings over facts.
The best show on fox sports. They have everything you could want in a sports show. Intelligence, humor, chemistry, and great personalities.
I detect NO 🧢 HERE 💯💯
It's the chemistry and humor for me. Wildes' humor is priceless
Add skip for you know what 😂
Nuggets vs Celtics should be a good series.
Nuggets market is small. Little money for the NBA it's a game of profits based on numbers
@@stephenmusisi2429 probably lakers Celtics
Agreed... on NBA 2K23, too bad they're not good enough to get there
76ers should be worried. Tatum was in foul trouble played about 20 minutes. Just gave this whole Celtics team a whole lot of confidence that they lost the game before.
Meh
@@thazrill70not to mention 76ers haven’t beat the Celtics since the 80s
lol
@@user-qr8bl6kz9g be loling your way to Cancún
yeah the celtics are a whole different league above the sixers, gonna be another second round exit for them
The issue with Harden isnt that he never has great games in the postseason, the issue is, his numbers dip DRASTICALLY in close out games, specifically when his teams are facing elimination
Joel’s stats go down in the playoffs and he’s never been out there second round😂
Just game 6s & 7s in general + his 1 finals he was bad too
Sounds like embid aswell😂😂😂
James Harden is a repeat failure when there is pressure on him to carry a team to victory in the post season. Give him a situation like a game 1, away and Joel missing and expected to lose. He will only succeed in those situations. As soon as it is a must win game like the 8:37 last season decider against Miami, he crumbles to zero points in an entire second half. That’s who he is.
His stat dips cos he was being defended close out. Its his weakness
Nick goes to 2015 and 2016 all the time. Why can't brew go to 2018 🤔
i can never stress how much of a breath of fresh air this show is as a sports fan
😂😂😂😂😂I am cryinnnnn... Broussard's reaction 😂😂😂😂to "Faith in Celtics restored?" is priceless...."This is for me" and the facial expression to go with it😂😂. I watched that about 5 times😂😂and Nick is just laughing while Wildes is trying to hold it together😂😂. Oh man you guys🤣🤣 ...epic!
Chris shut down all of Nick's points, Nick was struggling in this segment
Broussard had Nick stumbling in the first segment lol
Best moment of the episode snuck in right at the end 😭😭
Regardless of what Embiid does (Sixers' lone win against the Celtics in the regular season was by 2, and he put up 52 to do it), this series will be dictated by Harden. Maxey is awesome but unless Harden does the exact opposite of what he literally always does, it's gonna be Celtics in 5-6 max
All I heard was 1-9 and excuses 😂😂 5:43.
Nick got clamped this segment 😭😭😭 Brou went and dropped a 50 bomb
No one knows what Nick is trying to say, not even him.
Wyldes is literally perfect. this man stared as a response
Lol at Nick's stuttering. Wildes face 3:56
hahahaha the gavel killed me fr
That was too much! 😂 6:30
Pretty sad when your supposed to be the MVP and your team's better without you
Brou crushed Nick in this segment. Nick is stuttering and trying so hard to dismiss the facts.
Funny, I don’t remember anyone making any excuses for Giannis when he was injured. 🤔
Exactly why Joker is the real MVP
Let's go Celtics
These clowns like Wright and Brouchard with lies and false narratives they managed to crown Joel as the mvp and now they have to say more lies and spread more false narratives in order to excuse his performance.. lol
Doc Rivers made it clear that he wouldn't let him play if he wasnt 100% ready. Players play with light injuries all the time Jokic currently has issues with his wrist and Giannis also played injured but they still dropping 40s..
Free throwel Embiid is a FRAUD
nobody is excusing his performance except Nick
Does Nick genuinely believe what he says all the time? Because if he does, that’s impressive
You know Nick Wrights Celtics hate is beyond obvious when Chris Broussard is defending them.
Nick, they’ve had this issue dating to Brad Stevens lmao
I don't get how Jalen Brown has not surpassed Tatum in perception yet. He shows up every playoffs. I respect and enjoy Tatum, but Jalen goes Jimmy Butler in the post season.
Jason had only playoffs series and it’s was in the final the narrative that he’s not a good playoff performer is dumb ash an shows y’all don’t watch games
jaylen outplayed tatum in the finals. the rest is overblown.
Surpassed, no. But we all need to understand the C's are so dangerouse because we have BOTH of them. JT is dangerous, JB is a baaaaad man, but Tatum AND Brown? That's whats got the league shakin
@@scarecrow730 sooooo when it mattered the most? Tatum wasn't there last game either. I feel you, but smh. I'm not saying Tatum is trash, he's a superstar, but I just don't feel like Jalen gets his respect.
@@lairdhercules4553 Tatum wasn't there last game?? Yeah the guy who had 39, 11 and 5 on 14/25 shooting wasn't there.. Right
You know something I’ve noticed. How many times have we heard people say Lebron is unfairly criticized or people put too much pressure on him sometimes unlike other top players. But Wildes is constantly holding current and recent MVPs and other top 5 players to those standards. Props for expecting the best form the best.
Nick was getting cooked the whole time lol
What's crazy if an ANALYST saying CHARLES BARKELY doesn't know what he's talking about 😂😂
What if Bron was in the Cavs after the trade deadline?
alright Fabio
The truth of the matter is so far in his career Embiid has been awesome in regular season and one of the biggest playoff droppers ever statistically especially efficiency wise! Him Harden Karl Malone 3 of the biggest playoff droppers efficiency/stats wise of great players ever! I get he’s been banged up a lot in playoffs, but very few ever 100% in playoffs after long season & Embiid has played better banged up in regular season.
Meanwhile the guy Nick hates on Jokic has historically great playoff stats in more games played and missing his 2 best teammates last playoffs + Murray in 2021 playoffs (yet still has made WCSF 4/5 years and a WCF).
Thanks Nick!!!
They are so funny! Please never end this show. This is for real inside of the nba of sports talk show!
Harden is who we thought he is. His whole career he has come up small in the playoffs
Nick’s quick accurate 80% pretty impressive
That 7 game series vs the Warriors has a lot of great Harden playoff moments, perhaps the greatest Harden playoff moments as well, him losing that series is the reason for all this hate
Is that stat nick gives correct? I remember the mavs going 2-0 against the clippers a couple years ago. Am I missing something?
Is just 15 playoff series. Not 15 years
This show is 1000x better than Undisputed. Love the guys here
Brou better be listening to “Ten Toes Tall” by Lil Wyte every single day😂
Nick got schooled in this one hahaha
“He kinda played like Houston Harden but the bad version.” 😂😂😂
Nick wright is such a notorious Boston hater.. insane… 76ers are the one team in the league the Celtics consistently beat down year after year… well I guess we just gotta wait a week
Brou should have a surf shop called hang 10, he has big sales whenever 1 of his 10 toes isn’t down
I think a split was always bound to happen . Game 3 will be the true test for the sixers
Nick needs to get his feelings in check.
Joel Embiid, the 2022-23 league MVP, is now Philly's Achilles's heel, and I'm tickled green he's playing...
Brou channeling his skip Bayless with the embiid vs the celtics stat
2018/2019 apparently doesn't count, yet 2020 Anthony Davis lives on in Nicks head for life.
Celtics are coming out of the east and that's all you need to know about the eastern conference.
I feel like saying harden has a huge ego. When he’s the top dog, look what happens…. 45 and 10. When he has to submit and work with another superstar, it doesn’t look like he’s trying. Saw it in OKC, Houston and Brooklyn.
2-14 FG, 0-6 3pt. A no show😞
@@Greg-qw7xl it’s funny he went that after embiid comes back and stop all there aggression
This guy is crazy, only 2 players on Sixers roster is on this team from 3 years ago yet alone 6 Embiid Tobi. C’s got the exact same roster except 2 players. Smh
Embiid said earlier this year that there is no rivalry with the Celtics because they always beat the 76ers. thats the state of the 76ers mindset. The Cs have their number and will win the series.
Nick is full of it
Let the others talk
Broussard 🧹 Nick this segment
That’s not true 2020 is when Ben got sent out the bubble for covid embiid was by himself 4:44
The reason why home teams being 15-0 on game 2 after a game 1 lose, is a meaning ful stat unlike the Celtics vs Sixers in the playoffs one, is because the first one works for any team on any year (untill you go 15 games back) and serves as precedent because im guessing the stat stays onesided across the last 20-30 years.
Comparing 2 teams for the last 5 years because they have 3 or 4 players in common between the two is nonesense, gone through different coaches, one now has an MVP and past MVP, the other saw their two main guys evolve into superstars. They aren't the same teams.
between y’all and inside for best sports commentary
I wish sometimes they wouldn't stop nick from making his actual point with a tonne of cross debate from just hi setup, like just give him a few seconds to make his case guys
he has no case
Udoka’s intensity bring it ever night to your wife lol 14:21😂
Only Embiid can win MVP and lose by 30 in the same day.
Media couldn’t fathom Jokic winning 3x in a row and went with the next best guy
Exactly. It was easily jokic and embiid is gonna be out in the 2nd round AGAIN😂😂
When jokic got bounced when he won mvp just curious 🤔
Jokic is worse on offense and defense then Joel lmao
@@thazrill70 when your guy makes it out the second round you can talk about who’s better.
A -15 ppg drop from regular season to playoffs is something only Embiid can do. Generational playoff shrinker
So its like whoah??
Awesome show
No one can play with Joel that's a proven fact
Half the Sixers roster in both the 2018 and the 2020 roster are gone only two starters remain Joel and a Tobias
indeed. Al Horford was on Philly that year and Brett Brown was their coach. The team couldn't be more different from a coaching or player perspective.
Embiid is trash in the playoffs
Embid disappears in the play offs unless he attempts 15 fts per game😂😂😂
Harden never got swept, Harden never missed the playoffs, Harden was on the only team who ever had the warriors with KD healthy trailing. Not defending his lowlights but people forget his highlights.
Embiid with the black vote MVP
so what was Giannis?
@@kaysheye7784 he earned it
@@allthesmallthings1041 so you can’t give me a reason why Embiid didn’t earn it. Got it
Nick, 2020 wasn’t 4 years ago my friend
It’s crazy that people think nba players get rusty after a couple days and get back in the flow after one game weird
Brou trying to act like Embiid's record against a team over the course of 6 years in the playoffs is the same as the game two stat was so hard to watch, he didn't even let Nick explain himself, and those teo stats are so much differdnt i can't believe he tried to "gotcha" Nick eith that, by thr way 6 ywars ago the Sixers had JJ Reddick Jimmy Butler Embidd Maxey and Simmons, this year they have Embiid Maxey Harden T Harris and PJ Tucker, it's a completely different, Broussard was completely wrong about that
😂 You'll find more excuses after Philly goes home and Boston moves on.😅
@@mr.castle I don't care who wins or not, I was merely stating how biased and inaccurate Broussard was in this segment
@@samuelgaona7196 You sure showed you don't care.🤣
It’s extremely lazy stat searching and actively avoiding the context
@@mr.castle I mean I didn't say anything about him underrating the Sixers or that the Celtics can't win, I literally just called Brou out for using a misleading stat about Embiid and the Sixers when the losing record stretches across 6 years and 6 years ago the team was completely different, I don't care who wins I'm going for the Heat and the Lakers
The players respected Udoka. He demanded it. Mazulla lost credibility with the players when he seemed confused during 4th quarter tight situations. He had no answer. He lost their respect
If James played like he did in game one yeah but he’s not in his prime anymore
I want the 2018 Harden
2020 was 3 playoffs ago Nick you dingus.
1. 2023 playoffs (current)
2. 2022 playoffs
3. 2021 playoffs
4 2020 playoffs (bubble)
four playoffs ago
@@jaybooyawn that's not how years works so last year's playoffs is two years ago?
If jokic was in embiids place having just won the mvp nick would be murdering him
One of the few times I think Nick is absolutely spot on. It's a bit ridiculous to look at 2018 and 2020 as if those are relevant to today. Embiid is the only starter from 2018 still on the sixers (it was his second year as a starter in the NBA). fast forward to 2020, and it's just Embiid and Tobias Harris. Maxey, Harden, Tucker, Melton were not on those sixers teams, so it really isn't relevant to this years series. And then, yeah, you could look at the regular season, but come on... We know these guys don't take it too seriously in the regular season.
Precisely, 6 years ago? Come on, Guys. 6:14
Chris is wrong about Embiid vs Celtics because that was a coming off a injury Embiid. Now if Boston wins the next game than he has a valid point but if the sixers win Friday with Embiid then he has no argument.
lmfao you and Nick are extremely wrong foh Celtics owns Embiid every year
I like how Nick already knew what Wildes was about to do when Wildes reached down like that, ha ha. These guys know each other too well 🤣😂
You think Broussard realizes Horford is terrible at shooting threes in the playoffs. Dude was 1-8 last night lmao
yeah..Al was bad last night.
but he can hit 3's often enough to be a threat
Maybe watch what horford did against the bucks from 3 last yr kiddo
