Check out the What’s Wright? with Nick Wright podcast: http://sprtspod.fox/WhatsWright_YT
Nick had an incredible run with his NFL takes.He needed some humble pie during the NBA season 😂😂😂
Compare Kyrie to Wade in needing LBJ is off, Wade’s team after winning his championship was lacking… Kyrie has played with Jayson Tatum/Jalen Brown, KD, and now Luka 😂
Wade comparison is wrong. Wade didn't get a good roster till James and Bosh. Kyrie had a championship contending roster in both Boston and the Nets. Who else does Kryie need to win now? Goku? He's literally had the best talent around him for that 11-11 playoff record to be unjustifiable.
Been waiting to hear Nicks reaction all year 🤣🤣🤣😄😄😄😄 Jumping on the Lakers bandwagon
Kyrie is a +90 since he’s gotten to Dallas, Luka is a +9 just so we stating facts and not just hating on him because it’s trendy
Its not all on Luka…its mostly on Cuban and the front office….just look at that roster!
the end lol "why did I pick the mavs?"
I am so glad this wasn’t a Bash-Kyrie segment. I completely agree him and Luka aren’t a great fit together but this Dallas collapse is far from being Kyrie’s fault and I am so, so, so glad this show didn’t put it all on him today
As for the Wemby putback dunk, as impressive as it is Davis Bertans had a putback dunk off his own missed 3 two years ago in an NBA game. It was cool and all, but if Davis Bertans has done it then maybe we need to adjust our excitement level over someone else doing it.
You know a show is wholesome when you hear the set guys laughing with them.
Basketball is a teamsport… so who exactly was left from that team that made the Conf Finals? They traded Jalen, they traded Spencer, Traded Dorian, Kleber was hurt for a good portion., so was Hardaway…. So Paul? Who else? I mean I’m not saying Kyrie is terrible, but you traded some pretty good glue guys and defence specialists for a 6-2 scoring guard? Scoring wasnt really their issues, it was iso ball and defence. One could be fixed with coaching and the other by adding 3 and D guys, basically teh Harden blue print. But Harden also proved you cant do it alone. Jordan couldnt do it alone, Westebrook sure couldnt… none of the greats could have dont it without great teammates. The Mavs were close and then they traded the players that got them there. To me thats not on Luka, not even on Kyrie..although his track record is toxic. Luka must be tired by seeing everone keep changing around him: How many players he really got along with great are still there? Boris…gone, Spencer..gone, Dorian…gone. I mean the Mavs are almost as bas as the Timberwolves when it comes to makeing good managemnet decisions.
You don't have the Mavs winning the title.?.?. "You don't say" 😂
best sports show in the world
This show is better than first take by far
Watch the Mavs shutdown Luka then Kyrie and role players win their last 3 games and get in the play in lmao…
The Mavs would be 6-1 with just Kyrie and role players if that happens
The Mavs would be 5-16 with Kyrie and Luka with role players
I've been looking forward to this as soon as i saw the mavs lost!
Look at Kyries career since he left the Cavs. You cant just join other super stars and expect a championship run. This is why Dame has said he wants to stays in Portland.
“Why are you guys zoomed in on me, he’s the one talking” That killed me man😂😂
NICK'S face should be next to the Mavs.. and the producer laughing is priceless🤣
Kyrie…. Mr team cancer himself
Bruh I can’t wait till kyrie become. Laker and that animated series the nba got, had Bron taming Ky 😂😂😂
The real problem is Luka is Overrated.
Wildes is right 100%
Nick owned it like a boss “yeah, do you have a question?” 😂👊🏾
"Lebron loses, it's Pelinka's fault. If Kyrie loses, it's Kyrie's fault." Yup, that's the deranged toxic fan base.
Top-10 pick or no pick at all
I am sure Kyrie wish he was still with the Nets. Nets were still winning even without KD and Kyrie was getting all the credit.
Kyrie wouldn't have gotten his MAX deal from the Nets. However there were Teams waiting in the wings to sign him after this season with the Nets.
Kyrie is going to have to take a lot less money after this implosion with the Mavericks.
I never would've thought a sports talk show could be this good…
The pathetic attempt to insinuate it’s on Kyrie and to pretend like Kyrie isn’t actually better than Luka LOLOL
Kyrie just straight up stinks lmao
Wildes was 100% right at the end. the Mavs traded away defense for Kyrie, and they already weren't great on defense. and Kyrie and Luka aren't a good fit together. so blaming Kyrie for the team losing is just silly when he's dropping 40+ and they still lose. the blame is clearly on Mark Cuban and the Mavs GM for their poor roster construction around Luka.
this show is so good.
29-26 record before kyrie they don’t play defense they don’t rebound and coaching is an issue plain and simple
These 3 guys are so good together
The answer to every question is always "the 6th seed" lmao
Luka….2nd best player alive!!!🤔
This French kid is way too skinny.
Andrew Wiggins has done the “missed 3 into put-back dunk” sequence before
Kyrie is the new GOAT of team obliterators. This dude is gifted.
And Kyrie Irving is a top 75 player??!! 😮 This is worse than James Harden's case to me even though he has a ring
Kyrie is just a symptom of Mark making a dumb decision. Cause getting only Kyrie with no defensive players was just dumb
Solo basketball never led to any NBA championships, exception Allen Iverson and LeBron they got to the finals but couldn't win
Wilde's right, kyrie left to be the man & the coaches hes had & decisions they made kept him from getting there, however he has been tripping since he left too so its 60/40 kyrie being 40…but this time its Luka, he dont want to share the limelight, Harden was not supposed to be in Brooklyn.
1:57 is gold
Anybody who knows basketball just knows they need defense. Coach sucks. Just give them 1 defender lol
