Turns out, Draymond Green show not very popular.
Bucks over Nuggets. I had it before the season and I still do. I bet them at 50:1 to have that be the result and I am ready to cash it.
People stay sleeping on The Nuggets like full healthy they are problem
The nuggets will be in it before the grizzlies if we’re being honest
dray bigging up JJJ is basically him bigging up himself lmao
Grizziles are amazing team, but the Pelicans are way better than the Grizzlies in the West!
Sas dickeriding hard af draymond finna cum
as a memphis fan we have a few things for us to do before we ready, Triple J foul trouble, DB bad shot selection and also foul trouble and Ja and Bane just need to improve in some areas, Ja needs to improve his shooting and Bane needs to improve shot creation and shit. If we get all that done we should pretty much be fine, the main things tho is just Triple J and DB, Ja and Bane we can get away with.
No one picked Denver?
Grizz is same team from last year they are GOOD but not good enough when it counts
Fully Healthy Odds
1. Warriors
2. Nuggets
3. Clippers
4. Pelicans
5. Grizzlies/Mavs
7. Lakers
Everybody Else Has A 0% Chance
I agree with Draymond.
We make Memphis cry on their own court in a game 7 of NBA Finals.
Did Stephen A forget our victory in game 6 at Boston? It was just last season, it’s not even that long ago. Lol
Finals will be Nuggets and Bucks. Nuggets in 7.
Memphis doesn't have much star power. Nuggets have jokic and murray is getting back to bubble version, plus they're deep.
That’s dope to see the new media growing
Stephen A. Can’t save this guys channel nor should it………..
Enjoyed this take❤❤❤
Grizzlies??? Based on what, claims of a dynasty?????
How do you have memphis figured out if yall got blew out without ja?
Two real ones on a podcast is too good.
Dude Memphis could barley beat the timbolwovles they should’ve last that series y’all would’ve even talking about them
I hate this podcast, YOU ARE STILL PLAYING. Do this shit when you retire, but these new nba are all money hungry.
LAKERS VS NETS…IS MY PREDICTION
I said nets and Grizzlies in the finals
Always smart to give your foes intel
No Love For Da Nuggets 🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾
I appreciate Stephen A. Smiths honesty. I love, love, love my WARRIORS, but we have to be healthy down the stretch. May God watch the NBA and all the players and their families. GO WARRIORS!!!
You just gave away the secret to stop you guys!!! love your channel thou!!!
"Tall task for them" – Dray harhar "we will deal with them". Dray is giving them the 50 cents advice. Trash talking Grizzlies can do all their knocking, my Warriors will do their stuff to get it all again.
Grizzlies definitely the best in the west right now.
I got Celtics vs Nuggets Celtics in 6
Lol Dray smacked Santi 4 times in a row on 3s and no calls lol!! Manneeee you watching this year!?!? Karen only averaging 4.2 fouls a game!! Only fouled out less than 3 times in 25 plus games.
If the warriors are healthy come playoffs they going back to back. As long as Steph, Klay and Dray are together everyone goes through GSW to get to the title.
The Nets won’t get past Boston if it comes down to it the Nets haven’t beat the Celtics in over a year
dray x stephen a great combo
The JJJ point is massively underrated. To me it disqualified him from being a DPOY last year
means – Ja is not steph curry…..lol
SAS has picked the Nets for the past 3 seasons 😂 sssshhhh KD & Kyrie don’t need no woman when they go SA on they 🍆
