Its nice to know instead of covering the team you defend a freind not doing her job properly because a sports analysis has to actually see the team know anything about them
That could have been her first time seeing him live, but she sounded way too surprised that a 2x league MVP was good. I mean, she’s never seen a highlight in 9 years? Sounded like someone who just started covering sports.
Does the MSM think the nuggets are republican? I have never seen such bias.
"back off" sniffle sniffle, you guys are pathetic. Seriously- Suzy, Rich, TJ- HOW MANY NUGGET GAMES HAVE YOU WATCHED START TO FINISH THIS YEAR?= ZERO. Admit your espn bias. We are caling you out and we are going to rub your noses in it. Take the L and go home. Unsubscribed. there's plenty local media who actually know something other than east/west coast "pop culture" teams.
Unsuscribed the podcast too. pathetic. chao
Comparing Jokic to Trevor Lawrence or Kevin Love what a horrible take somebody already said it, you are clueless and have 0 knowledge of basketball.
NBA is fixed. It takes a miraculous team to overcome the Boston LA rigging
I really hope the Nuggets make it to the Finals. If David Stern was still the commissioner, you could guarantee that the Lakers would make it to the Finals…
she… has no business working a mens game… zero qualifications… what has she done, what dues has she paid, she does not belong… women outside the home ruin everything they touch………………………
Have you apologized to Araiza yet for ruining his life?
Lol, you clowns are seriously analogizing a 2-time NBA MVP to NFL QBs in their first contract? That's like comparing apples to wool socks.
And seriously, stop with this Schrodinger's Feminism where professional women are simultaneously superhero girlbosses and unfairly put-upon victims of criticism. If the Inside the NBA guys can handle getting roasted by the fans when they say silly things, Salter can, too, and doesn't need the wagons circled around her.
Lisa S said what she said and you failed to clarify at the time she said it. I sincerely doubt she's watched a full game of his out side of prior year playoffs. She and Mark Jackson deserve all the crap they're getting.
Her comments about Jokic should land her a demotion. How embarrassing, and how incompetent, and what a terrible take by Eisen, and the rest. I haven’t seen Jokic live, and I’ve also never seen Babe Ruth live, but give me a break. Stop with the excuses.
Did she pay you to do this Rich 🤣🤣. Theres no way you have a 14 minute video about the nuggets and STILL don't talk about their game. Its about bs drama instead 😂
The Media will defend the Media
Should just admit biased reporting and get over it. No need to hedge, already admitting the lakers are the cowboys of the nba.
go nugs! bring it in!
I am 100% certain that most of the regular season MVP voters never watched Jokic, either.
How can you only see Jokic once live ? Frankly terrible. Media just accept you disrespecting the Nuggets!
Jokic now has 118 triple doubles. He will surpass Magic Johnson next season and will be #3 all time at age 28 or 29.
As a lifelong Denver sports fan, that was easily the best win in franchise history. And just to be crystal clear, we aren’t mad at Lisa Salters in the slightest. We’re mad at ESPN for ignoring that the Denver Nuggets exist, which is reflected in the fact that Lisa has never covered one of our games. This team is incredible, plays an all-time great beautiful brand of basketball, and is filled with high character guys. ESPN and TNT’s obsession with big markets deprives everyone of this amazing team!
No excuse
I can provide a list of national media members disrespecting Jokic and Denver if Rich would like.
The narrative has been: "Oh, the Lakers are fine, the Lakers are fine." It's 2-0 for Dever. TWO – ZERO!
Lisa Salters has always appeared to be competent in doing her job, until NOW! Shesh. Monica McNutt, where are you?
0-0: "Oh, the Lakers are fine, the Lakers are just fine!"
1-0: "Oh, the Lakers are fine, the Lakers are just fine!"
2-0: "Oh, the Lakers are fine, the Lakers are just fine!"
😂😂😂
.they like the spurs boring but all they do is win <old spurs>
Ham fired in 5.
Forget Joker, I'm callin him cold Kola
As soon as this lady brought up "single mom" when talking about Lisa's Jokic comments lets you know exactly what is actually true. Her being a single mom has literally nothing to do with this, don't try to guilt people for rightfully clowning her considering her job is to watch and cover the nba and she barely knew who Jokic was.
Most ignorant segment next to Perkins saying the voters are racist
It’s the truth no one watching the Nuggets other than Denver.
If lakers lose 1 game in la in the next 2 they are done
Hope the Denver nuggets win the title.
Trevor Lawrence is a TERRIBLE comparison. Jokic won 2 straight mvp's and could have easily 3peated this year. It would be like Tracy Wolfson saying she's never watched Mahomes play. How could Rich be this stupid.
Don't make excuses for the sideline reporter. She obviously DOESN'T do her job well if she, up until this series, has NEVER seen a two-time all league MVP play in person!!!
Ya sure… explain to us what Lisa Salters was thinking, like Mark Jackson didn't know he was voting for MVP. You smoked from the same pipe.
Rich is acting like he had no direct connection to the “Lakers are winning the West” hype himself.
You think it’s acceptable for an A-Team NBA sideline reporter to have not watched a 2-time NBA MVP in person a single time?
Do you understand what you are saying? You are justifying the response. She may not select the games she goes too but you have been ignoring the number 1 team in the West and the two time (should have been three, thanks for sucking up to Perkins) MVP.
The Cowboys? Did he just call the Lakers the Cowboys? Why is he insulting the team he clearly wants to win?
Media defedning the media from criticism that the media is biased…
"We investigated ourselves and found ourselves innocent"
Since the bubble, I knew this team had huge potential. Especially with Murray but he’s been injured and out for two seasons. Now that Murray is back, it’s Kobe and Shaq 2.0
The Nuggets won DESPITE the refs! LA is guaranteed to even the series because the NBA wants a long series.
Bro 2x MVP. she’s had 3 years to watch🤡
