@@satchelpowers0612😂 lol
OK Nick, let’s compare how many All-Stars in all NBA players has LeBron James played with in his last 20 years now compare that to Joker - your answer right there
Never
Why does Nikola Jokic get to completely skirt accountability when he plays terribly? If any other legend played like this in their PRIME, they’d be crushed
Because he's completely in the zeitgeist of popular basketball culture and stat clowns right now. He's a great player but the fact he's basically got 4 MVP's in a row now is nothing short of insanity and shows how fickle the meaning of the award has become.
Well… first off he ain’t a legend. Maybe one day. Not yet tho
I agree. He’s my favorite player. Last night was the most embarrassing and inexcusable effort of his career.
He’s about to be announced as the 3time MVP this week and had talks saying he was about to pass Shaq and Hakeem and he’s getting locked up by Naz Reid and KAT
@@GENEVAVIOLATION How about because he has zero all-stars or all-nba talent around him? I'm a wolves fan but this is disingenuous.
Watching Minnesota do their thing these last couple games have been really special.
It’s been awesome to see the emphasis on defense coming back, the importance of having big men, and also Anthony Edwards bringing back the shooting guard position and full effect
Yeah it’s super cool how the league allows them to man handle the nuggets because they need Anthony Edwards to move on in the playoffs and replace Lebron and Steph as face of the league
I so badly want to see Ant smack up both Jokic and Tatum in route to his first title
I wanted to like this multiple times
Especially those DAMN bostonians 😂😂😂
OKC slapping the Wolves😂
He got mj size hands or kobe size hands?
He could at some point troll by making his follow through look like Mike's
Would be hard work mike shot line drives this kid has some arch don't he?
@@la4632 I don't think OKC will get pass Mavs but maybe I'm wrong.
Mitchell ahead of Tatum and Shai is insane.
@Palmleaf-kp7ncfor no good reason lol
True
Tatum is just too soft to be a great player.
@@whatsgood22022 you do not know basketball 😂
@@SamUHells it's clear you don't watch it. Tatum is good, but not great. He's soft.
Colin. My brother. If you think Denver has a Spurs feel then this season is exactly on target.
San Antonio never won back to back. Every championship had at least one year where they didn’t win in between.
Exactly my thoughts!
I think he's talking about that year where they were like 12-1 in the first few rounds of the playoffs
The difference is Denver’s star player is a liability on one end whereas Tim was a 2 Way Player. Teams have an easy way to score points against them
They did win back to back lol dang you dumb haha
Thats literally what I was saying
That Giannis - Jokic comp from Nick was awesome
nick is dope
horrible comp
The disrespect to SGA at 7 is insane
Not even disrespect just look at the first 6 guys
They had Jalen ranked as the 15th best player in the playoffs the other day...
Lmao naw & SGA ain been going crazy in the playoffs so far go look at the stats OKC has just played great
He has the same numbers as last year but with better players around him this year.
I think if SGA started having more dominant games, then people would be convinced he's an MVP. He's surrounded with 4 players that help him run the ball. But I have yet to see him dominate a game in the playoffs. Just takeover a game and drop 50.
Colin freaking out about “who’s gonna be the new face of the NBA and who’s gonna carry the ratings” just makes me happy small market teams will be dominating for year to come
The Nba is boring and dying.
@@TwoHandsOneHeartsure kiddo 😂
@@TwoHandsOneHeartNBA is a global brand. That’s why Lebron’s a billionaire and they get paid a lot more. The US market doesn’t matter as much as you would think. NFL gets a lot of play around here, but as soon as you cross the border it’s all Lebron and Curry jerseys.
Facts.
that makes u happy lol
Jokic looks like he’s ready to go back to Serbia and play with horses.
You ain't lying. Pretty alarming. He looks so out of sorts right now!!!!
Nick is no authority to speak about MJ
He's so ridiculously biased
Buy a box of tissues and have a proper cry about it
Exactly!!!!
It would help if he actually saw him play during his career. Kind of hard when you didn’t.
Shai at 7 is ridiculously low
Facts. Let them stay asleep on Shai though.
He's just saying who has been the best *during this playoffs*
Criminal!
Honestly it’s because we haven’t seen we haven’t seen him against a real playoff team is my theory. But Mitchell and Brunson over Shai is blasphemous
I'd put him 5 behind Brunson
Nick Wright is still talking about Lebron hahahaha!
Remember when people laughed at Ant for saying he could be better than DWade? not saying he is right now, but it’ll probably be conversation down the road
I’m a Celtics fan and agree on Tatum. He’s a top 5-7 player. He’s a superstar but he lacks killer instincts in certain games. He can have a 50 point game 7 one series then have multiple mediocre games where they need his best to put the opponent away.
U not a real celtic fan if you spreading that false narrative. You just going along with what these nitwits on tv say. I promise u if you look at tatum' last 3 playoff runs. You will more consistency then inconsistency. Everyone has mediocre games. People just act like tatum has so many.
@@truth3412 he’s definitely a great player but let’s not act like he didn’t disappear multiple times in the Finals vs the warriors then again in game 7 vs heat last year…
@@captainkill21 I think the Celtics management knows it that's why they got Porzingis, but you lucky swines are now getting more scoring versatility in DWhite...
You Celtics better win it all this year because no one will feel sorry for you. 😊
I just think he's a good player who, depending on the match up, can be great on some nights. But d him up with equally sized, decent defenders and he will routinely cough up the ball.
@@captainkill21bro tatum has played so many playoff games vs greats and they're playing chumps , he's just letting his team cook.
Denver losing jeff green and bruce brown really hurt there dept
Yup. They should have paid the man. He was the x-factor for that Denver championship run.
Look I am bias from Minneapolis I get it but you can't tell me what my eyes aren't seeing isn't the third coming of Micheal Jordon with Kobe being the second. Fadeaway mid range jumpers, killer instincts, attacks the rim, plays defense. He just shoots the three better then they did lol. I'm a LeBron
Guy myself but now that he is old and I'm in the twin cities I'm an ANT MAN. God I never thought that's what id say about myself five years ago. That block in the regular season we've never seen that... I've seen bron and Zion hit there head on the rim/backboard, Ant hit his whole upper body on the backboard. The block was cooler then the dunk on Collins.
Once you see it, you 𝐂𝐀𝐍’𝐓 unsee it lol it’s a joy to watch because Jordan was so physically poetic on the court.
Ant is my guy. He's following in the footsteps of the great MJ, Jordan and prime Wade. He has the benefit of learning from the best and he'll only get better.
Nick never misses a chance to throw a dig in on MJ. The Goat
And make a Nuggets topic about Lebron once again
The Shemite takes shots at Jordan out of his man-love crush for LeBron.
He's on Lebron's payroll give him a break
it’s honestly refreshing. the guy gets talked about like he’s god on all these sport shows
Spurs never repeated...
They forget that Tatum is playing selfless ball!
@ChrisTuckerExpress because he is rebounding and setting screens and blocking shots and starting the offense with the hockey assist and regular assists!
Dallas ain't beating Minnesota.
Dallas isn't beating OKC.
@@alananderson7903Exactly!!!!
Donte DiVincenzo is a 2-time NBA Champ. Dude just knows how to win. Warriors & Bucks were stupid to let him go.
that top remaining players list is ridiculous JB and Donovan Mitchell over Tatum and Shai ….. ITS NOT THEIR FAULT THEY PLAY FOR BETTER TEAMS
Nick takes so many chip shots at Jordan it’s hilarious
That’s how you know he’s just a troll at this point when it comes to his MJ takes. He’s careful not to give MJ any credit. If he does he quickly knows to follow it with a knock.
He's trying to wear people down psychologically with a subtle but endless barrage of knocking Jordan in order to prop up LeBron in the GOAT debate. He takes it WAY too seriously as if he has a personal stake in convincing the world LeBron is better than Jordan
@@tomstorm7926 Colin does that same thing with everybody. Well, except for Sean Payton and Jim Harbaugh.
Why doesnt anyone on the national media mention Kobes playoff performances from at 21 and 22 years old. Best perimeter defender and played essentially point forward with versatility. Dominated Spurs in those conference finals
because he had a star tin Shaq and Shaq won 3 finals MVP and 1 season MVP
In what world do you live? Kobe doesn't get credit?
These replies literally have nothing to do with what I just said lol.
@@WaveRider1989and he legitimatized his spectacular performances alongside Shaq by later going to three straight Finals, coming out the West, without Shaq. He never needed Shaq to put up winning performances.
@WaveRider1989
Kobe took over in the deep Western Conference and Shaq got his stats against no real centers in the finals. Shaq would say it himself, they aren't winning without Kobe. Listen to the commentary from those games. They are waxing poetic about how good this Kobe kid is . 3 peat ain't happening with 1 dominant Center. Not the easiest to play with too. Kobe kept Shaq involved.
I genuinely aspire to have the sheer hustle and willpower of Josh hart that man is averaging like 15 and 12 while running marathons for a week😭😭
One of the toughest players in the league. The Lakers should never have traded him away.
@@clintonwatson8396 yeah I remember when that trade happened I didn’t think much of hart I thought he was a nice little role player but nothing much more than end of the rotation 7th 8th man at most. I did like him but never thought he would become what he has. Heart of a champion fr
If you watch Nick Wright and Colin Cowherd talking about Jayson Tatum and the Celtics, or even SGA, just stop listening and click the next video. There’s no actual analysis, just a clear example of “I’m not rooting for them so I’m not going to give objective analysis for them”
100% right
Amazing, the audio works!!!!
Josh HART...........MONSTER 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Everyone watch Nick Wrights take on Brunson when he went to the Knicks. He should be disqualified from nba talk 😂😂😂
Michael Jordan wasn’t in the league until 22 🤦🏻♂️
21
21 actually
Ant is essentially Jordan if he would’ve came out after his freshman season at UNC in today’s era. With nutrition, training. Their games are creepily similar
Not asking nick about Brady roasting the chiefs is unacceptable 😅
Nick said the Gobert trade was the worst in history 😂
Yeah, he always says dumb 💩 like that.
Gobert brought in a defensive mindset. The young players buys in to the defensive mindset. Defense wins games. Gobert was worth every penny.
Colin truly hates Tatum....to have Donovan Mitchell ranked ahead of Tatum is laughable. Tatum doesnt take a million shots per game like Mitchell...."Mitchell has to, he doesnt have the supporting cast".....When Mitchell had the team around him in Utah he was busy not playing any defense and choking in the playoffs despite being the best team during the reg season....meanhwile tatum was busy going to the conference finals and finals while Donovan was in Cancun.
What’s going to be so funny is, the same thing that made people love Jokic is going to be the same thing that they hate him for. Remember when people thought it was cute because it seemed like basketball was just a part-time gig that he happened to be good at? Wait til he shrugs this lost series off as nothing and act like it’s no big deal 😂😂 I can’t wait to see the clips about it.
Wow Tom Green as a sportscaster....He has changed it up😂?
Excellent interview and talking points. Great guest and good podcast.
This shows just how dominant the warriors were
When has spurs ever won back to back
I absolutely cannot stand Wright’s voice and yet here I am. Why do I keep doing this to myself.
Can’t wait to hear how they feel after Tatum wins
@ChrisTuckerExpress BASKETBALL IS ABOUT MATCHUPS…..nothing to do with being a homer im actually a Knick fan but i understand basketball…….last week you didn’t think Minny had a chance I knew this was gonna happen…..we not the same
@ChrisTuckerExpress but they’re not and the wolves can’t guard them
Man, I love Nick Wright! Easily the best talking head on tv! His takes are usually very good except if its about LeBron.
His mention of Jerry West in the finals losing was even an excuse for LeBron lol. The finesse with that take is legendary
The trouble is that over half of his takes are about lebron.
😂 that's cap.
Colin i love you bro but please stop using the same references on the same show. i can never tell if im re-watching a segment lol
Dude 3 bench points is unsustainable, I hope NY enjoys the ride because it's awesome but damn I've never seen anything like that
Still disrespecting Jalen Brunson smh. 😢
He’s the *BEST* player right now in the playoffs!!! Wtf they talkin about 😅
Both of these guys thought phoenix would sweep minnesota
Paul Pierce was the best and key clutch player on Boston.
Pierce was clutch, but KG was the x-factor.
I'm a Celtics fan,and Tatum is at 5. But if they win a title,and he plays well,that could change. And Mitchell and Brunson being ahead of him is crazy.
Who is in charge of the audio??? Dude is in the wrong field.
Everybody on this list has a strong number 2 pause but Jalen Brunson
So like why isnt he number 1
😂 shout out mike malone for showing them this
We all clowned Minnesota for getting Gobert to pair with KAT. It is really paying off this series. That's why we are in awe of the Jordan Bulls, Shaq & Kobe, Steph and the dubs, showtime Lakers and the Duncan Spurs. Ant is phenomenal but it's his team and how they have grown together. Denver is in trouble and they can still win, but Minnesota is really impressive right now.
Timberwolves being investigated for crimes against humanity after last night's defensive performance.
😂 💀
Why are ppl saying the Nuggets didn’t play well? That’s not the story here…the timberwolves stopped them from scoring. These guys are not focused on outscoring anyone….they are focused on preventing their opponents from scoring. The defense is just elite. Nuggets didn’t play bad they got locked up. Are these ppl even analysts? Denver was no lesser than what they were….they were stopped.
Arguing the same thing. If an opponent clamps you down, and stopped you from scoring, turning over the ball, and making bad decisions.. then that team did not play well. And 80 points in any regular season or playoff game in today's NBA is a 90s throwback at this point. It's bad.
The Tatum hate is really unreal. This is a guy who has had so much playoff success compared to all of these unproven guys, and yet he is the one who is disrespected.
They don’t even understand the words two way player. Averaging 10 rbs last series
@ChrisTuckerExpressyou know what's a bigger smudge? SGA being the same age and never winning a single playoff series until a week ago
Tatum is the best player on a loaded team for several seasons and can't finish the job. It's no credit when you can't finish the job
Playoff success should culminate in a championship, especially in stacked teams and a Jaylen Brown by your side. On paper, they had a better team than the Warriors. Let Miami come back, as an 8th seed.. those are not good looks.. especially if he doesn’t get it this year
Facts. It don't make sense. And they won't admit he's the new face of the league. Tatum is the one with the most national endorsements deals.
Colin *killed* the media for comparing Ant to Mike and has done a complete 180 in a month.
What about the altitude in Denver?
Tatum is a great player Ant is great player you don't have to dis one to elevate the other. It's a lot of ball left to be played the young stars are shining. let thigs play out before we start handing out crowns
The Nuggets depth is finally catching up to them.
J Hart's minutes topic is actually crazy. It won't sustain and its a shame Thibs doesn't rotate him at least 4-5 min per game.
Comparing Jokic to LBJ accountability is laughable …
No one ever mentions Paolo as far as best young players!!
He’s great but he’s got some things to work on before he’s in that convo but I’d put him ahead of somebody like ja
@@bigda6407 not really. he averaged better numbers than Tatum this playoffs. Media dont care about Orlando, small market.
@@jasonderby7635 agree but paolo needs to make some improvements he’s not far off from being in the convo
@@bigda6407He just finished his 2nd year, yes Paolo still needs to make some improvements but he is ahead of schedule. His playmaking got a lot better in year 2.
Colin should have this guy discuss sports everyday with him. He's almost always in point and he adds laughs as well. I have seen him many times on various sports talk networks and I honestly never remember his name.....but I always expect to hear something relevant from him.
This isn’t Luka’s year. Luka’s biggest strength is shooting threes and he shot 14% for the last half of the last series. And 23% overall. That is absolutely horrible! He’s very good at many things but he’s gonna have to improve quickly to have any shot.
The American press and their hatred for foreign players is astounding
The Nuggets out there looking like the Buttnuggets
The knicks beat the 6th seed at home twice….barely…and now they think they gonna win the ship! 😂😂😂
Well said just another day at da office for Colin
Why is Colin obsessed with Tatum? Does he have nothing else to talk about?
Colin has his whipping boys.
Of course Nick Wright will somehow find a way to bring Lebron in the discussion.
*eyeroll
People keep calling tatum a superstar but i’m genuinely confused how he’s earned that status. Def a star but feels short of “superstar”
The Wolves' defensive approach and tenacity are what's beating Denver. Jokic can't handle it. Mike Malone might come up with an answer. So far, it doesn't look like it, though.
“Denver looked like the team to beat all year” the timberwolves were the 1 seed in the west for 75% of the year lmao
They were given the Golden State treatment where we assume the players are on autopilot during the regular season.
This year . You cannot put Gianni’s over Tatum. Jamal isn’t getting better!? Sports media is so Fox News now smh
Ant is 21 Tatum did all that @ 19 he’s 26 now went thru many heart breaking runs. Ant is just now getting there we will see if Ant can go on a run till 26. At a young age of course he can jump out the gym and take every jump shot. That’s what young guys do.
Nick is cookin' Wildes today
Minnesota is one of the few teams that haven't made it to the finals they're probably the best team in the league but Knicks have more enthusiastic fans
I think Anthony Edwards is more vocal than MJ was when pushing his teammates on plays and in huddles at such a young age I think MJ didn't become more vocal until the year when they swept the Pistons just my opinion
I think we overvalued Denver. They played out of their minds last year. And I think LeBron’s consecutive appearances to the finals has diluted the reality of how hard it actually is to repeat finals appearances, let alone win back to back.
Listen to the way Nick spoke about MJ, the pure disrespect just because he’s such a Bron lover. It’s okay to respect both players Nick!
Can the knicks win it all? I spit up my soup.
As a Knicks fan, I don't see it yet. I think we are a healthy Julius away from that. Outside of that, ECF is in consideration for this season
@@moff5420 Don't see it yet? I chuckled. Knicks would not have even made the playoffs in WC. They were 15-15 against WC despite getting all those cakewalk EC games WC teams don't get.
@@kevinmclain6741 It seems you obviously don't know the Knicks or what you're talking about. First of all, do some research before you talk in order to get the facts straight. Don't you know at one point, the Knicks were top 5 in the league in terms of the standings? But then all of a sudden, they lost 3 of their starters in Randle,OG,& Robinson. Plus Brunson was even in & out due to injuries as well. But before all that the Knicks were beating your so called Western Conference teams including Denver,Minnesota,& the Clippers. Matter of fact, they gave Denver one of their worst loss of the season. So now my question to you is how many teams do you know in the NBA that had injuries to 4 of their 5 starters and still won 50 games? Well the Knicks are the ONLY ones in the NBA to do so this year. Bro the Knicks are mentally tough,gritty,& physical and i wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they do actually happen to play Boston and beat them to advance. Then we will see what happens to the western conference team in the finals. By the way, just in case you don't know, sports is more mental than physical and the Knicks are the most mental & physicallly tough team in the playoffs. Remember i told you so. Keep chuckling!
@@MoBeatz Yah clearly. Lmao. Fanboy
@@kevinmclain6741 Nuh! I'm just speaking facts about the Knicks instead of being a hater like us.
Josh hart playing 48 minutes is more than sustainable that dude is bonkers.
I want Wolves vs. Knicks in the Finals.
Colin and Nick need to join forces and do their own show
I think we let the Cavs vs Dubs stretch from 2015-2018 trick us into thinking that making the finals is way easier than it really is. Just because you seemingly have the best team/player does not mean you’ll play that way
Tell it! There's a reason only five teams have been to 4 straight finals the past 50 years. Even if the rest of your conference is boxcar hobos, it takes a toll on everyone to play that many games together. When you win something it's very easy to slack off. People start singing your praises and you start believing it. Guys get less hungry after they break the tape at the finish line.
The east was historically bad and Warriors spent more money than anyone on players. Good comment.
It’s more than just Cavs Dubs.
Go look at NBA Finals history. There are a ton of repeats. Are there are tons of stretches where teams went to the finals but maybe they didn’t win them all.
Lakers went to like 8 Finals in the 80’s. Celtics went 4 straight. Pistons played in 3 straight. Chicago and Houston are the only teams who won in the 90’s full seasons.
From 1999-2009 10/11 seasons the Western Conference was won by either the Lakers or Spurs. Only exception was ‘06 Mavericks.
Heat went to 4 straight. Spurs went to back 2 back finals 13/14.
Of all the leagues, NBA is by far the easiest to repeat in.
Yes it is tough, specifically because of the best-of series format. And the fact that players have more control of movement than other professional sports means it’s even harder to keep core groups together.
Brady looked SWAGGED OUT dropping back and throwing
Ant has best player ability?
Ah, he’s already the best player. He’s dominating the champs on both ends of the floor.
The Joker and Luka are amazing, but defensive stoppers they aren’t Luka is more of a speed bump.
Colins obsession with tearing down Tatum is becoming weird.
Anthony Edwards is a very good player and will be a winner someday. I just think that he arrived at a tough time, because just turned 20 years old Victor Wembanyama just entered the league.
Geezus..Brad might've ruined Tatum's star power..He built the best team in the league and suddenly everyone forgets how great a player he is just because he doesn't have to score 35 a night..
Even Luka who hasn’t won a single mvp is help to a higher standard than Jok
Nick is Right about the Knicks. They keep it close and bury at the end of the game
Putting doncic ahead of jokic is ridiculous
Having Luka number 1 is insane
Wright is such a casual lmao
Nick was less annoying today.
10 minutes of nick is plenty
Kevin Garnett is not a great example to compare Tatum with because there was a time before 2008 where KG actually the best player in the world. Tatum has never been at that level
Jokic is getting crushed on Twitter, idk why Nick is making up false narratives
The Lakers blew so much lead against Denver but this not the Lakers
Wolves looked stronger....literally all year they were in 1st. Ya'll just refused to acknowledge them.
Facts
