Listen to What’s Wright with Nick Wright: http://sprtspod.fox/WhatsWright_YT
not a bad shot at all 😂 can’t tell Steph and Klay they can shoot whenever and whatever and tell Jordan Poole he can’t when he was making those all last playoffs 🤷🏾♂️
Quote of the show “ what are they going to look like when he starts making 3’s”
Well Wilt was the second best defensive Center while been the best scoring Center and giving you 30+ points
AD will do fine, he's being guarded by Loony! I think the Laker's won't have a lot of trouble with the zone.
Lost respect on Chris who chose Memphis over Lakers.
Nick's #1 Ace. Lebron. Dude made a talking head tv career propping up lebron😂 his sacramento kings almost got steph. His real KING JAMES is here to take out steph.
Nick just love his "KING(s)"😂😂😂😂
I agree with Nick, I think Lebron gets surgery as soon as the season ends. He had a season ending injury and I dont think the "Lebron James of Foot Doctors" just waved his hand and made it go away. Lebron probably had treatment to mitigate damage and fix it "for now" until their season is done and he can get it fixed properly.
A 31 footer for the lost!
😭😭😭😭😭
PS.
That was Brilliant Defense on Steph at the end of the game!
😳
I think Bron knew they had a good squad after the trade deadline and they can potentially win the championship and that’s why he decided against the surgery. He knows that just his presence and defense can benefit the lakers which would not happen if he decided for the surgery. He knows even without his ball handling and scoring they can make a run so he is settling for 3s and jump shots. Btw Lakers 4-0.
IF Lebron would had join the Warriors instead of the Heat and they traded Draymond a long time ago for Lebron, he would have 10 Championships. Of course he joined the Heat because Wade was his best friend and he didn't notice the Warriors potential
I can see Lakers winning the chip as well, but it's definitely NOT a guarantee, it's mostly dependent on if the main stars can stay healthy or course it's not over yet
The double/ triple team on Steph is working
"I'm not convinced these so-called 'experts' really understand recovery strategies. The Golden State Warriors just finished a game against Sacramento, and it's clear that Curry isn't running as much as he used to. As AD pointed out, they need to prepare for a marathon-like endurance challenge, not just a short sprint. When the Lakers and Warriors face off in the next game, both teams are likely to be same level of fatigued. I predict it will be a blowout.
Lakers gave their best punch yesterday and they played their best game of the year. Now GSW will need to answer.. Folks AD is not going to be able play 45 minutes per night.
MJ played every night to his fullest, These current players are on and off every other game.
Not a high percentage shot but Poole made a couple hard ones that game. He didn’t want a quick 2. He didn’t want to get near the paint where he saw what the Lakers have been doing to protect it.
Lakers almost gave it away! Warriors shouldn't have been in a position to tie the game!!!!😎
AD’s swatting Curry in the paint changed the game. “Get that outta here!” 🔥🔥🔥
Steph was definitely a lil upset. I cant really tell if it was because Poole jacked it up from that far out or just because he missed.
Golden state likes to lose first game.
Poole was opened but he should've dribbled and tried to get a little closer.
Reason why media personalities should not have a vote in player awards. I think the players association should have majority of the votes to select MVPs etc.
