  2. planetzzz1

    Where is bro getting all this “broke and destitute” stuff from 💀

  3. Clunky_Exposition

    The stages of me watching this video:

    “This isn’t *that* awkward.”

    “Oh, maybe that was the awkward comment.”

    “Oh dear God stop talking.”

    Yikes, that was cringe…the pro bono comment was a lighthearted joke that buddy should’ve just let go along but he took it to another level…”last time I looked at my check, it’s pretty close to pro bono” proceeds to call out his assets, sheesh

  5. joesbalt

    Young fella tried to be funny

    Old man checked him

    &

    Was 2 seconds away from whipping his ass 🤣😭

    Old dudes don’t play about their money

  6. thy_armageddon

    Adam Silver gonna be fucking seething. Lol

  7. ABsolutethrowaway91

    I am dying laughing at the awkwardness.

  8. hezzanity247

    This is why a third host is so crucial lol

  9. BrillFish55

    This took me four separate pauses to get through. Rough.

  10. TemporaryValue5755

    I watched this live and even my wife in the other room started watching and asking about it. So much salt.

  11. mendellbaker

    Well they know there’s like 23 people watching a pre season studio show.

  12. tore_a_bore_a

    Give me more of this. Love when NBA tv gets awkward. 

  13. djdarkflame

    I don’t even know what to make on this lol. Sam was way out of line, but the young dude shouldn’t have made that joke to begin with. Just crashing out 😭

  14. WisdomCow

    Chuck and Shaq beefs have nothing on this!

  15. [deleted]

    The “pretty close to pro bono” comment was a perfectly normal bit of banter, and then he just kept going…

  16. FloppyBisque

    lol big fan of this. Top notch entertainment. Idk maybe I won’t that once I know the full story

  17. HisExcellency20

    Man that was a lighthearted joke and at first Sam played along with the lighthearted self-depricating response of “I might as well get paid nothing” and “I’m taking donations.”

    All fun and good but I guess he felt some type of way because after that he just went in 😂😂😂😂😂

  18. TheBrazilianKD

    If Mitchell really is getting paid less than that guy, then that guy saying Mitchell should work pro bono is kind of insulting isn’t it? Even if it is a shitty joke?

    I don’t know who the hell that guy is but I sure as hell know Mitchell

  19. CradleRockStyle

    What the hell? Do these guys just hate each other IRL or something? Super cold vibes.

  20. donwuann

    My wife calls dude on the left big booty. She’s never seen him besides this setup but says she can tell.

  21. dead-serious

    young buck thought he had a good back and forth ribbing joking is okay relationship with coach but Sam Mitchell’s felt a different type of way behind the scenes then just let it all out lol 

  22. arnchise

    That sounded like an argument that’s been simmering under the surface finally spilt over. It just happened to be on TV.

  23. Sam Mitchell ended up dropping this guys address on live TV lmao

  24. PlsSaySikeM8

    I’d love to hear what was being said in the production room lol

  25. youarenut

    Yo I just watched that 😂 at first people gasped and laughed but then he kept going and it just got quiter lol

    Even I gasped when he said the Florida hurricane line.. AND HE STILL KEPT GOING 💀

  26. youarenut

    “Do I need to give out ya address because you’re not home right now” IS CRAZYYY

  27. Adulations

    Sam Mitchell is only 61 why is he on there talking like an 80 year old grandpa 😭

  28. Jayrodtremonki

    “I done told you young fella.  You’re going to stop messing with me on national TV.”. Give this man an Emmy. 

  29. thisguysthashit

    You can’t tell a man on national tv he should be working for free. Cmon now. He deserved all that smoke.

  30. Young host made a joke in very bad taste. Essentially saying “since Olympic coaches are so underappreciated, you should get paid nothing for being here.”

    But I think the line from Sam (older guy) at the end is very revealing, “I told you to stop messing with me on national television, young fella.”

    Seems like the younger host has crossed the line and been warned in the past. Good on Sam for pushing back
