For anyone commenting before watching the video… this is no shots at Coach Prime. This is about the content driven ecosystem we've created in pro sports.
Black Men intimidate this country
Successful Black Men The most feared on the planet. Actually in all of human history. The euro journals prove that
First of all, it’s not the locker room..secondly the 76s owner was there, how do you know it wasn’t approved? I didn’t see any 76s upset …in fact they were engaged. You don’t get to be the one who decides that
Coach Sanders,……..stop it.
Yo this franchise is under such ridicule, & it was a positive moment for the team players & also for the organization. The 76ers & fan base collectively needed this moment. The fans doubt the success of the organization, so there's nothing wrong with this moment. Don't compare that BS with Draymond & Poole to this moment, that's corny.
Y'all gotta be kidding me JJ playing on y'all! As long as cameras been in the locker room he decide to "speak out" when Deion Sanders does it when every dam team does it! Look everybody tryna ride Coach Prime wave and get clicks and views JJ you are no exception
JJ your such a hypocrite “know you roll and shut your mouth 🤫 “ lol
J J is full of BS why does it matter to u
I get the bonding of players with each other and the coaching staff, but why not use the term camaraderie instead of intimacy. Intimacy meaning can varied, but too me it's a term that was use between lovers, husband/boyfriend and wife/girlfriend. Like I said, "too me", a heterosexual, that's what it represents. I'm sure that word intimacy means the same thing in the LGBTQ world so, why not use camaraderie instead. I've boxed in the golden gloves, played basketball, football, soccer, and baseball, and we have never used that word, intimacy, to get to know each other as players and friends.
Nah bro yall was mad coach prime said he like dat mj era
If cameras meant so much in a locker room why didn’t yu say that when Oregon coach did it ?🥱 plus coach prime wasn’t even in a locker room to begin with
I'm just a kid, but I appreciate this video. Thx for clarifying your stance. Content is king but only time will tell how this impacts our society moving forward…
Coach Prime can do whatever he wants. Who the hell are you to tell someone what to records. The 76ers allowed the video and they requested Coach Prime to speak with their team. Did you tell this to the Oregon coach when he invited espn into his locker room???! You are a hater. Surprised of you JJ. When you can’t find nothing else to criticize Deion on, you so low about some damn videoing a meeting at a restaurant. Lost all respect for you.🤦🏽♀️🤮
How about if the Media said the on air media is sacred and have to be a Journalist not ex-player to be a media commentator.🤷🏽♀️ That’s how stupid this sounds. JJ Reddick your new name is JJ Hater. Glad you didn’t make this comment on First Take because SAS would hit knocked your head off with his words.💯💯💯💯
Never Liked JJ
L
Jj redick is a clown 🤡
Yall know bcuz hes blyte they hate us but steal our swag until its time to be us…let that sank in…tired of u people saying stuff…u meant it for deion…next
They were in a restaurant having dinner JJ they were not in a LOCKER ROOM. You are definitely reaching and trying to get clicks
JJ redick you are so wrong. Deion Sanders is one of our black heroes.
We've never had one of our sports heroes come back with the commitment to our community that he has been showing..
Just let us enjoy prime time for a sec I've been listening to every single one of his words and he has made a major improvement upon my personal life..
Leave prime alone and let him keep preaching to us he's saying the right things and he's showing our youngsters how to be committed..
Leave prime alone we need to see his message that's why he's showing us..
Totally get it and agree
no one is watching basketball rn so who cares..
I can't tell if it was a motivational speech or his sly way of telling Embiid, you didn't want play Jokic at home and possibly lose your MVP… But, you're point is more interesting and perceptive to the climate of how we injest and are constantly making pointless content.
A wyte man hating on PrimeTime. What else is new??
So what you’re saying is that Deion can’t promote his son’s business? 🤨 because that’s who’s putting things on social media and that’s what Deion is doing. Furthermore, there is no locker room code unless agreed upon by the players and coaches. It’s not a universal “code” my guy. Finally, you aren’t playing anymore so why are you upset? You’re retired bro. It’s not that deep & im sure Deion AND his son got CONSENT from the 76ers organization ahead of that meeting. 🤦🏾♂️
Dont be that guy jj. Your ideals are your ideals. So everyones ideals differ and there isint a gauge on whos ideals trumps the other. It comes off as you telling someone how to and what to do.
Lmfaoooo you didn’t tweet it out for a response, lol and your were talking about prime the whole time you just a lil hater
Jj reddick spending his time talking about what happen in the locker room and that’s how he’s making a life 😂. Now you wanna talk about prime giving advices on camera. Pity
We dont believe u JJ… ud prefer it more if hardknocks did cu buffs right, we see u… id advise u to listen coach pri.e saying he old school not old fool
Who u think u is to tell someone what to post and what not to..
Is a lot of the content kind of cringe? To me, absolutely…but does that make those things bad? No.
Does the fact that Deion talks so much about the program get them love? Yes….does the fact that Deion talks so much about the program get them hate? Also yes
Once you realize that essentially everything in life is just marketing and/or other people telling you how to live, it makes it a lot easier to sift through the noise
Sanders is doing wonders for that program and those kids, even if it’s a “little much” or cringey at times
JJ may be you don't give a 100% when the camera is on you. thats you. But you don't know Coach Prime. Don't forget Prime was a professional athlete also and he was on disply every where he went. Therefore he is aware of scrunity. Thats why he says what he wants and never recants anything. When the camera is rolling that's when Prime is at his best, and another thing Prime is so authentic. He's the same on and of the camera. He's doesn't shy away from anyone, or anything, he let's you know he has nothing to hide. He puts everything on the table. Maybe too you the locker room is a place for privacy. That's all good and fine. But Coach Prime is never been in a box. He has a massive intelect to discuss various subjects even those which are not in his background. There are few and beyond who has his intelligence. The problem is your mindset is not that of Coach Prime therefore you would never understand the range of intelligence Prime Process.
The purpose of a tweet IS ENGAGEMENT!!! Own it!
If u selling Embid vs Joker thats what we wanna see… y u think Lebron backed ur tweet, nba be selling Lebron Lebron and all we see is Lebron ducking the smoke then yall make excuses for him, we tired of that…
