Stephen A – get some pros on the show again, would you?

Luka averages a career 8.2 apg .. for someone who doesn’t share the ball😂

“… let’s me know you have no chance of winning a championship” when he’s already won as arguably the 2nd/3rd option is hilarious

Isnt it obvious everyone has a different point or take to make everyone think..it would be boring if everyone agreed. I wouldnt take gils choice so literal here if im watching this

Randle played an undersized Lakers and Curry Less GSW and yall believe in him over OKC? Lmao Watch him give up on yall when his 3 not going against Chet
@mostmost1
May 20, 2025 at 7:38 pm
Bron is the same size as Randle, and Luka is much bigger than antman . Dfs is shorter than McDaniels but Reeves is taller than the wolves pg. Rudy is slightly taller than the Lakers Center. Even with him benched Rui is tall. Stop lying about the Lakers being undersized. They were not!!!!

Gilbert saying pascal is not the number one option ? Pascal is the only consistent player in Indiana during the playoffs since last year. Halliburton is great but in the playoffs he isn’t on pascal level

Alright being a diehard Knicks fan here.. this is starting to feel like the Knicks show. This is ESPN, a professional sports analyst show, but S.A making it a Knicks show and it’s kinda getting it annoying. There are 29 other teams in the NBA 3 other in the playoffs left. Even im not even that naive in thinking we taking it all the way OKC is on another level.

I think Gilbert might be right about Siakam being most important out those 4. Haliburton has some off night shooting the ball regularly and you need the guy with the ring and conference finals experience to step up to win this series.

Every single ESPN analyst picked the Cavs to beat the Pacers and the Celtics to beat the Knicks. 😂”Experts”

Siakam is weirdly reliable. He’s going to be really good. Always is.
