Yea but some of us been saying this back 7 years ago when "NBA Media Nerds" were selling everybody on the analytics movement. Nick can't cry about it now when he wasn't saying anything then. He was complicit in it ha.
If the GMs cared about how much fun the viewers had this wouldn't be a problem, but since the money in the NBA keeps going up, these GMs aren't willing to risk their job to try and run a less efficient offense out just because it's more enjoyable for viewers.
Dear Wildes, I love the show! I do however tire of Aaron Rodgers on the bud list... and every other segment on the show. As Nick says, they are just simply a bad team, yet they are talked about them all the time! No other bad teams with a completely losing record get even a tenth of the attention, and the Jets should be boycotted until they are above .500 (the rest of the year).
He's not, Nick doesn't actually know or understands what's going on. Teams shooting threes doesn't mean they're just chucking them, coaches have never been more creative in organizing plays, sets and actions to create good shots. Nick and others crying about the amount of 3PA just confirms they don't know anything about the game.
@@ptyten9718Noone cares if you're shooting 3s off picking the picker, double screens, Princeton sets, 5 out sets, 7 seconds or less, elevator picks, constant motion, trailing 3s, corner kickouts, pick and pops, back door action, extra passes or whatever else. NOBODY WANTS TO SEE TEAMS SHOOT 3S ALL GAME PERIOD
Yet it's far and away the most popular american league worldwide lol, the complaints are hilarious. A team will run the most creative set and play yet some of ya'll will complain because it ends up in a three 😂
@@ptyten9718 Have you seen the ratings? They aren't increasing to match the growing population And stop with the "creative plays". Watch the Celtics and see how many shots required any creative play making
@@chiggsytube You want me to become an NBA owner, change the NBA rules, so I can have my team beat the Celtics to prove ratings have declined from their peak? How nonsensical is that Let alone the idea that jacking up dozens of 3s is somehow a more evolved way of playing basketball. Please finish high school, focus on your studies especially English class and comeback after you graduate I believe in you. You can do this.
You know what though. The 3pt thing was inevitable because it's not a much harder shot than anything outside of 15 feet but it's worth 1.5 baskets. There has to be some rule changes to rein it back in, or a crazy adjustment to the line, including eliminating them from the corners.
@@ptyten9718 And that will rob the game of it's current grace. But you can't handcheck a guy out of a stepback 3, baby. If he can step it back he'll you pushing him just means you won't be there to contest, because you STILL need to let him land.
i didn’t at first but it’s kinda grown on me they should make it a thing specifically for this show, doesn’t have to catch on everywhere ( better if it doesn’t actually haha )
I think I get why this show is so liked, it’s the closest thing to inside the nba out there with their silliness, chemistry and not taking things too seriously
Hopefully with Ant Mans emergence as the new "face" of the NBA, that will translate to a resurgence of the mid-range and not a truck load of bad basketball takes.
Dear Wildes, Love the show. Why do you only have Cowboy Brou? You should have a whole social media series “I’m from there”, with Brou dressed up to celebrate a different home team every week (since he’s got hometowns in all 50 states 😂) Ron & Don (cousins of Ryan and Bryan) 😂
Judge is the 3rd AL player ever with three or more 50 home runs seasons, but overall there are 5 players to have accomplished that feat. McGwire and Sosa both did it 4 times. Some will not count Arod, Sosa, or McGwire due to steroids, but currently these are the players to have 3 or more 50 home run seasons on the record books.
Good point. Judge and Ruth are obviously the most respectable and should be praised for that achievement. ARod, Sosa, McGwire, not so much. Great hitters, but juiced to the max. I mean, ARod had more scandals than home runs, which says something, and arguably was juicing before he even got to the MlB
Once again, Nick got it wrong. It should be the Miami media on the bud list. As a Miami native, I know the Miami PD reputation of being overly aggressive. That cop in question was suspended 6 times during his 27 year career of which 5 of those suspensions only occurring after body cams were instated. We have STILL not heard from the Miami media as to what the result of their investigation was or what happened to those officers. The media needs to hold them accountable, or this injustice will continue to happen to everyday citizens.
The “sports media ombudsman” bit has quickly transitioned into “old man get off my lawn rants” - and I LOVE IT! 🤣 ESPECIALLY today’s take because Nick is 100000% - analytics has KILLED the game. NBA is unwatchable these days.
"The last time you had 8 INT in the first 6 games we didn't talk about it much..." WHAT? There were people on this show (and many others) stating that Majomes was BROKEN because he had 9 INT and the Chiefs were 3-4.
Btw Nick, you seemed confused by the saying a while ago, so as a little assist for you, it’s called the forth wall because old TV sitcoms used to have live audiences, and therefore the sets only had three walls, with the fourth being an implied wall which in reality was just an open space with the cameras and audience, therefore the layer of disbelief and magic the production of something creates is called the fourth wall.
I find it hilarious that when Coach is here, he and Brou agree on almost everything and he be glazing Brou heavy during this segment, but when Greg is here its almost like he & Brou be competing & have tons of friendly tension 😂😂😂
"Hey, I want it in quotes!" 🤣 Nick is 1000% right about the direction of the NBA. Brou makes a reasonable case for Judge (I am a Yankees fan so I have a bias here) but I do feel as if Ohtani is under more pressure. Giancarlo and Soto are in form and LA have home-field. I get it, Yankees, NY media, etc. But Ohtani is also on GOAT-watch, officially. Everyone regards Judge as likely an all-time Yankee but long-term I still feel like we'll say Trout was the better player right - point being, nobody thinks Judge is or ever will be the greatest to play the game. But I hope Brou does motivate Judge out of his slump to take WS MVP to go along with his AL MVP!
Dear Wildes, Brou and Nick, Love the show, Quick question? Is the BUD list bump still working? Or is Aaron Rodgers 3 indictments adding up to a life sentence on the list? Thanks, Brian
This is a myth. Free throw attempts per game have been around the same average for decades, teams generally shoot around 30-40 free throws per game combined and it's always been that way.
Totally agree ; while I love watching Steph chuck up 3 bombs , the Celtics shot over 60 3-pointers in their win and credit to them and I’m a fan of them and it works but 2/3 of all the shots are 3s the NBA is becoming a glorified 3-point contest
Not to mention, Steph and the Celtics don't just "chuck" threes. A lot of them threes come off creative sets and screening actions made to open up great shots.

That segment was pure perfection
"Wow, a self own" and "I have no idea of who those 4 players are" 😂😂😂
God, I love this show.
The comedic timing of the “self own” comment was literal perfection
Wildes killed Nick
Wildes is an absolute menace xD
Nick did not see that one coming. He got flustered.
They need a Nick Nerd graphic to go with Cowboy Brou.
"Wow! A self own" 😂😂 Wildes was quick with that
Curtain was pulled back for a moment: i can see these guys mock Nick off-air.
Nicks honestly been cooking since he got promoted to Sports Media Ombudsman. I think it's a nice contrast from the standard sports takes we get.
Easily his best rants come from this segment
Huh?!
And I love that Brou goes “it’s official now wildes, you know that 😂”
Bruh he called himself out this week Wilde's goated for that self own comment 😂
Wildes needs to be on the BUD List for reading the same letters from the same twins.
Ryan and Bryan are very common names!
Someone's salty that their comment wasn't read 😂
Dude, it's part of his bit.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😅
10:56 Wildes sharp as ever
😂😂
So sharp lol
"That was un-called for"😂
😂😂😂
Greg Jennings talked in a way that was trying to convince Nick not to get on the Board LOL
Cowboy Brou 3.0 is the best one yet 😂
Nick is 100% right. It isn't fun watching teams running the same offensive sets and jacking up 3s.
Obama agrees

The problem is the nerds are right that it is the best way to play in terms of winning
Watching Boston just waste the end of the blowout trying to break the 3pt game record was boring and super disrespectful if your a Knicks fan

Nick nailed it about the NBA
Its why so many people don't like the nba anymore.

Finally they mention Baseball when the two biggest teams are playing each other in the world series
Nick conveniently forgot about baseball when the Yankees eliminated his Royals
@@Ryan6OChe might bring the board out for that comment
@@Elias_Soto 🤣 also put Jazz up on the board and KC immediately lost the next two games
Exactly what I was thinking. And I think personally they actually care about baseball, at least Nick does
We don’t care about baseball baby…also there are a ton of baseball highlights on weird and wonderful so you’re welcome
As a Packer fan, I love the J-Lo nickname 😆
i didn’t at first but it’s kinda grown on me they should make it a thing specifically for this show, doesn’t have to catch on everywhere ( better if it doesn’t actually haha )

Spot on. It’s inherited their mantle. Sadly today’s NBA isn’t great but FTF covers football too so it’s rolling.
If we’re doing nicknames, the list of teams Chris has claimed is the brou crew 😂
Hands down the best sports analysis show on TV. The humor and banter intertwined makes for hilarious episodes. Pure gold.
“20 minutes…wow”😂😂😂
Great take by Nick. My only critique is the swipe at midrange basketball-midrange is beautiful and perfect for tv.
Hopefully with Ant Mans emergence as the new "face" of the NBA, that will translate to a resurgence of the mid-range and not a truck load of bad basketball takes.
@@sjw4life546 Ant doesn't take a lot of mid range shots .
Brou really be trynna push 'the B.O.A.T." (best of all time) and personally im all for it
That side glance from Brou be having me rolling 😂😂😂
Dear Wildes,
Love the show.
Why do you only have Cowboy Brou?
You should have a whole social media series “I’m from there”, with Brou dressed up to celebrate a different home team every week (since he’s got hometowns in all 50 states 😂)
Ron & Don (cousins of Ryan and Bryan)
😂
"wow a self own" 💀💀💀💀
Undeniably the best sports talk show
"HEY!!! I wanted that in quotes!" 🤣😂
😂😂😂
Excellent segment and sick burn wildes
Cowboy Brou should be on the BUD list after that uniform debacle.
All time great Buds List from everyone
Wildes is top 5 Kevins of all time
Nick sounds like Rick talking to Morty this segment”Wubadubdub”

Thank you!!!
It is time for Aaron judge to secure a title
This was so good
My petition to have first things first start covering baseball as well

Nick's take on the sorry state of basketball, effing priceless!
"sorry state of basketball" dawg shut up 😂

Love Nick’s take on the NBA. Your team is not the GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS. STOP SHOOTING 3’s!!
Best take ever for nick today 🔥🔥
Purdy is simply way better than Dak - just no contest 😂😂😂
Strong words wildes!
“That was uncalled for “ He cooked that man 😂😂😂
This show always entertains me and gives me a good laugh. Thanks fellas you guys are great at what you do. Keep it up
I died laughing when wildes said a self own lol
That segment was perfection
"The last time you had 8 INT in the first 6 games we didn't talk about it much..."
WHAT? There were people on this show (and many others) stating that Majomes was BROKEN because he had 9 INT and the Chiefs were 3-4.
Does the crew know there’s a football game being played tonight? More cowboys and jets segments though!
Nick right on point with them 3s they need to cut that S... Out it's making the game boring
Listening to Brou laugh actually cures cancer. When that man gets going with his laughter it's hard not to enjoy it

Btw Nick, you seemed confused by the saying a while ago, so as a little assist for you, it’s called the forth wall because old TV sitcoms used to have live audiences, and therefore the sets only had three walls, with the fourth being an implied wall which in reality was just an open space with the cameras and audience, therefore the layer of disbelief and magic the production of something creates is called the fourth wall.
surprise talking about Rodgers everyday
Can’t lie Nick is right I can’t even watch basketball like that anymore
How did this video come out a minute ago. I need my First things First fix much much earlier

We already have cowboy Brou. Can we get that stock nerd image and put Nick's head on it and get Nerdy Nick?

Dare I say nick was in his bag
Nick was cooking 😂
Greg is predicable, I knew he was gonna pick Patty
"thats a lot" 😂😂😂 if wildes says that we should be concerned

I love cowboy brou’s theme song 😂😂😂😂

I find it hilarious that when Coach is here, he and Brou agree on almost everything and he be glazing Brou heavy during this segment, but when Greg is here its almost like he & Brou be competing & have tons of friendly tension 😂😂😂
Actually Brou…Sammy Sosa also had 3 seasons of 50 or more homers. Maybe he meant to phrase it as 3 seasons of more than 50?
A comment above pointed out that stat only takes into account the AL otherwise Mcgwire and Sosa would be there as well.
Sammy Sosa hit 50 four seasons in a row & 49 in the fifth season
"Hey, I want it in quotes!" 🤣 Nick is 1000% right about the direction of the NBA.
