Why is Steven A acting like they blew the Clippers out....

[tyrues]

SAS acts like he's a basketball guru when he has some of the worst takes and often flipflops on topics

[BlackMamba]

The Nets loose to The Cavs and they lose their minds, they beat the Clippers and they're going to the Finals? Its one game.

[apocalypticsoul]

this Saturday, SAS: “I’m worried for the Nets”

[tafadzwachikwira]

Max: makes valid points.
Stephen A: theres so much to teach about basketball
Me: Smh

[Crazimir]

SAS Next Week: "Kyrie needs to be traded or they will never make it out of the East".

[aryangupta]

"there is so much to teach u about basketball max" . you cant say that after such a stupid take stephen a. max's reasoning was solid. SAS overhyping the shittiest defense in the league for no reason

[Michael]

This dude literally flip flops everyday. 😅

[joepalmer]

I'm low-key tired of SAS clowning Max when he makes valid points

[skipbayless]

Shaq last night: Defense wins championships
SAS: Defense doesn't matter, There's so much to teach you about basketball Max

[matthewhartmann]

Bruh Stephan a thinks he’s knows everything and his only argument is max doesn’t know basketball

[tvusfdb]

Stephen A. swear he a savant in basketball

[karimw.]

The brilliance of KD is that he doesn't need to dominate the ball to be the best player on the floor.

[alksdlkasdaklfklasfkasjkld]

SAS has really simplistic arguments for someone whos been covering basketball for like 30 yrs. Never talks about the intricacies of the game, just paralyzed by the names on the roster. KD, KYRIE, AND JAMES HARDEN! WOW NOBODY WILL STOP THIS!!

[DecAllTimeAlways]

The big takeaway for my Clippers is we only lost by 4. A couple more careful possessions and made baskets and we win the game. That's after experiencing a Kyrie onslaught late.

[smoovay]

This is the same Stephen A that said two weeks ago that Kyrie should retire? Flip-flopper to the max.

[LegenDr]

Always remember...

Beginning of this take: Praises Kyrie
2 or 3 weeks ago: Kyrie should just retire

[DecAllTimeAlways]

Expendable Clipper pieces
1. Lou Williams (9.1 PPG, age 34)
2. Pat Beverley (always hurt, $13M per)
3. Ivica Zubac (suffers vs. small ball)

[jashanvirdehal]

they switched up real fast from the Washington Game, show should be called Pendulum Take

[InfiniteILMPS]

I agree - I got Philly coming out of the East this year. It's their year. Their defensive versatility will make them one of the best match ups for the Nets.
