Imagine my confusion when I see a video titled about LeBron, and the first question I hear Molly ask is about the Clippers

[jamesgeiger]

JJ be having Stephen A Smith stutter more then anybody 😂😂😂

[thickymcghee]

I love how JJ is paying attention and writing things down on his notepad when someone else is speaking. I rarely see anyone else do that. One, it shows he respects the other person and Two, he comes back like a sniper, taking apart their arguments point by point.

[desireubensealey]

Big respect. JJ calling out Stephen A Smith telling him like it is. SAS moving the goal posts like the paddle in a retro game of ping pong.

[ChrisJoestarr]

I love how AD gets no blame when he's supposed to be the man for the team not a guy in his Season number 20

[DEEiBe]

I love when JJ calls Stephen A out. Ahhh he needs to be on more often

[alexandrufarcas]

I really love JJ as an analyst. He always has valid points, calmness and he lets the other person speak and finish his ideas.

[OGJayroc.tsukuyomi]

JJ said he will not be treated like Max Kellerman. He be on Stephen A head.😂

[majrpaynetv]

“Kawhi Lennit” will forever be funny 😂

[ZoDaLeo]

Whoever said “upload the entirety of the segment” I appreciate you. Love that we are given the full topic discussion instead of small videos

In the 2013-2014 regular season, Kawhi was third in scoring with an average of 12.8 ppg...Tony led the team at 16.7, Timmy averaged 15.1 and Manu was 4th at 12.3ppg. In those playoffs (including finals) he was tied for third with Manu in scoring with and average of 14.3 ppg behind Tony's 17.8 and Timmy's 16.3. In the finals he climbed to be the second option at a 17.8 ppg clip behind Tony's 18ppg. In those playoffs Kawhi averaged 11.9 ppg in the first round vs Dallas 4th on the team, in the WCSF vs Portland he averaged 17ppg 2nd on the team, and in the WCF vs OKC, where he played the most mins on the team, he averaged 11.8ppg 6th on the team. So Stephen A. is partly correct...Kawhi might have been a solid 3rd option...he was instrumental to the success of the team, but Tony and Timmy were the face of the franchise at that point. The finals MVP came because of his defense. His best basketball in those playoffs came in the finals...following that championship he became the face of the team...

I never heard media saying Kobe is 5 champions league mvp etc etc before talking negative 😂 they go directly attacking him

[jaysoldja]

JJ Reddick is always on point. He talks basketball and provides superior analysis while Stephen just saying words to fill the time

[NLGabriel]

JJ is a breath of fresh air with how bad the media is today.

[introvertedblackgirl]

I absolutely Adore JJ! “I’m not trying to be Profound I’m asking a Question.” JJ stay having SAS be like a Pregnant Nun at Sunday Mass! 😂

[Atrain]

JJ trying to hold back during Stephen A monologues is priceless lmao

[drakemontes]

I love jjs inability to criticize the modern player lmao

[Shawnboy]

JJ needs to be on every sports channel there is. Always breath of fresh air with him.

[nio]

According to Redick … AD rondo dwight russ etc etc isn’t enough pieces 😂😂😂

[kakashi]

Well i agree with stephen a regarding kawhi being the 4th option. Yes he did become the finals mvp. But more on that is because of his stellar defense on lebron. Iguodala was the same a year later.
