Lol

doesn't make stephen a wrong though.

😂 facts

He ain’t wrong tho 🤷🏻‍♂️

He don’t give a F about his career either clearly

I’m an introvert so I definitely understand him. His teammates say he’s a cool dude and funny. Their opinions are the only opinions that matter

But he does though. It's in their contracts

@@ronwilliams7728 He talks when suppose to talk. He just doesn't talk anymore than he has too.

no doubt, he has also been through hell his whole life but Stephen A conveniently left that out

When you represent a team and have endorsements, being an introvert is not a smart option.

Why was he telling Kyrie to retire?

Cuz he’s that dude lol

He is jealous a black man makes way more money than him playing the sport he never could so he became a journalist. He thinks ppl like Kawhi and Kyrie don’t work when in reality he could never be an athlete like them

narcissist overload. it is ALL about HIM. he KNOWS everybody and their mom - like durant, MJ, AI, lebron and they all respect him. he also prides himself of being the most hard working and respectful journalist. his takes are there to bring in clicks, and he sells his image to be annoying so people will watch his shows. sometimes i can take it, but when he goes after someone like kawhi or durant, i cant stand the dude.

@@checkanr138facts I agree. Not enough talk about this

He always does.

And I’m a Knicks fan to the death and Jalen is invited to all cooks out….ill take Brunson over d Mitch but not luka

Jalen Brunson is more important when you compare who's needed more for the success of their respective teams, but (Even as a Knicks fan) I can say he's nowhere near as good as Luka Doncic

Well he says this because of melatonin. He never gives flowers to those that aren't of darker complexion.

​@@SBzKillFrenzythat doesn't even make sense. Mavs don't even make playoffs without Luka. A full Knicks team still makes playoffs without Brunson.

@@MikkiChavez Without Luka, they still have the Unstoppable Kyrie. Without Luka, Mavs definitely still would make the playoffs. As far as the Knicks, reverse roles. If Brunson goes down, but Randle is still healthy, they might just barely make the playoffs, but mavs would be sitting real comfortable at least a 3rd or 4th seed. Mavs have that luxury. The Knicks need Brunson to play well or stay somewhat healthy. They didn't have the luxury of another explosive player this year is what I'm saying.

That's a reach, give a good example of someone comparable but with the issues you stated.

@@raoulthedutch How is it a reach? If SAS is using the word worst in the history of sports now that’s a reach. There’s even superstars that have been caught using performance enhancement drugs so Khawi is worse that they are because he’s not promoting his team or the NBA? SAS is not the one cutting the check and if the team he’s on feels the same they would have traded him by now. And if he’s a free agent tomorrow majority of the teams would sign him in a heart beat.

@@raoulthedutch Allen iverson, Michael Vick, Ben rothlessberger, Karl Malone, Blake griffin, Ron artest

OJ Simpson?

Way to miss the point.

Michael jackson did it with pepsi

Stephen a is right tho lmao

@@youngfuturesupreme3901 he's not at all

Windy is literally no one he wouldn't have a job without lebron his opinion is the last I would listen to that man never played anything even in middle school 😂

what did Stephen A say that was wrong? Windy didn't even attack his argument

@@hooligan5381 how did Kawhi do in the playoffs?

this bruh cause this outta pocket i really hope somebody takes up for Kawhi hopefully Westbrook

I think someone or some franchise push SAS to say what he says. Whoever “they” are they definitely using SAS to push their narrative. Probably to lower his value.

You’re so dumb it’s insane. 😊

Y’all are ignorant and so wrong on this topic it’s sad what society has become

The wortst superstar in the league yet he made all nba second team 🙃, clearly its not a talent issue cause with a fucked knee injury that holds him back, when he is on the court he is still a top 15 nba player and that its who the Clippers are paying the big bucks to. Talent wise the clippers are not that distant from the Mavs but meanwhile the mavs superstars showed up and showed out both on defense and ofense what did the Clippers stars do, reminder that with the Klaw down they still have 2 top 75 players in Westbrook and Harden and a 1st ballot HOF in PG, yet the media is blaming Kawhi.

An employer paying him hundreds of millions of dollars

You are correct

The old heads/retired players do. The younger generation/player's still playing don't

He is 100 percent correct this time.

​@@scottmiller8617 Exactly! Kyrie had to hear it about his availability for years

@@Whyypreeeeeeeeeeold heads like who? IT just checked his BS

SAS is right about Kawhi’s availability though. He has been so unpredictable with injuries and there have been nights where he plays a full game, does a post game interview, and no reports of injuries then out of the blue the next game he’s out for load management. You can’t deny that’s a fair point about him

Sasha Vujacic also has 2 ships 🙄

@@Makaveli3k. dumb comparison

@@Makaveli3k. u really put Vujacic and kawhi in the same sentence 🤦🏿‍♂️

We don't have to respect anything that doesn't deserve our respect

Respect a man who won mvp and lebron avg 30 9 and 9 …. Then goes to Toronto beats warriors g-league for championship 😂😂😂😂😂😂 wat respect

He only showing up to sign up for that check

All the time

It’s not nobody would touch Kawhi with 10ft pole. He’s not gonna be there when you need him.

He hasn’t played in the playoffs in years.

So who's a worse superstar than Kawhi? Not Star but Superstar 🤔

Embid​@@Zantar16

@@lonbwoy007 Kawhi is the better player but Embiid is the better superstar according to SAS argument. He is more committed to the 76ers franchise and even played in the playoffs while injured.

So, in your genius opinion, objective criticism shouldn't be had. We should all simply upload players even if it's glaring where the gaps are.

@@omronstatic997 it’s incredibly foolish to criticize someone for having a degenerative knee issue. Doesn’t take a genius to see that.

@@adamrielhThen why is he getting superstar money? Why are tickets so expensive? Why does he get superstar treatment? He doesn’t get the criticism because he doesn’t play enough.

SAS is an entertainer, this show’s entire schtick is to create narratives and get people riled up. He’s doing it again here - who has been thinking about Kawhi and the clippers who got eliminated a month ago?

It's not. Don't forget that sports is about "What You Have Done Lately?" . The situation in San Antonio has cast some doubts about whether or not he can take upon himself to show up. It looks like the Flu Game will never happen with him.

but you do realize not being a notable person makes you a bad superstar right? lol you're proving his point

@@TheForkOnTheLeftist You ‘re just yappin Saying Kawhi is a bad superstar Smh just waisted seconds of mh life writing that. Do better smh

@@Fugitif012 maybe you should do better. What you just said was stupid. And didn't attack any point. Like most people just repeating the same thing over and over

Clippers 2025 champs

​@@TheForkOnTheLeftistbut people knew that he was a cyborg type player idk why he is surprising that he doesn't market the sport, brand or clippers.

When you remove ya emotions from your rebuttal you realize what Stephen a is saying makes sense

OJ Was Great

That situation had nothing to do with the NFL

REGARDLESS TO WHAT YOU THINK OJ WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY AND ON THE GRIDIRON OJ WAS A BEAST

@@williamthurston7260 OJ was not found guilty cuz he lawyers put chmeiclas on his hands so his hand would not fit the glove.

On the court please leave off the court stuff out of this

He’s a wossie that’s why he’s soo injury prone!

@@jamesrene9378 Tearing ligaments make u a woosie?

He can't help himself.

Thats exactly what I commented the other day, Its just the state of sports talk nowadays.

68 games for all nba consideration not coincidental? use team attended for bread but can't play more than 5 playoff games out of like 19? Yea bro the Kawhi era is OVER

He’s not intelligent enough to understand that people exhibit themselves through their personalities. Kwahi is introvert and cos he doesn’t shout nor charismatic doesn’t mean he doesn’t promote the game. You can’t mirror everyone on own myopic mindset of what they should be. Thats very so wrong. Agreed injuries but what about KD doesn’t lead any team

@deequi77 u are one trillion percent correct💯

He isn't on the court most of the time. That is part of the issue.

@@sgame82 forsure but how is that his fault. The man has bad knees, we know that, dogging on him for that doesn’t seem productive.

Stephen A Smith has a slick way with words, and is kind of good at reading nuances in human behavior so because of this he makes sometimes misleading comments that provoke people to behave different from what they naturally would sometimes, so because he has made this happen a few times to a few sports athletes, so he trys to see if he can continue to expose little nuances in their character in order to see if he has the power to make more athletes behave different from what they naturally would based on his shrewd but misleading comments, and he purposely overlooks the sensitive nuances in behaviour of star athletes that give him exclusive information on their lives and descisions, so he knows that everybody has poked fun at Kawhis' quiet personality, even when Kawhi laughs in an interview then the audience and media tries to say his natural laugh is akward, so Stephen A Smith is a shrewd person so he is using this knowledge against Kawhi by further harping on Kawhi's natural quiet personality that has most fans and media saying he is akward, but he is just being his natural self, he does not have to open up to people that he is not interested in, and Stephen A Smith knows exactly what he is doing and he probably is doing it because Kawhi denied him an interview or denied him some excluseive information, but even if its not for this reason then Stephen A Smith is still making an argument based on talkativeness and not physical performance, and thats what sports is: physical performance

Ever heard of Ben Simmons

Lemme tell you about a guy named Ben Simmons…

Ben Simmons is / was NEVER a superstar.

Ben Simmons was never considered a bonafide superstar and im not speaking on everything i know now…but even then he was a star on the rise/in the making

@@torrancejohnson9922since when this bozo has EVER been a superstar? Lmao he might be a superstar at the met gala

Not to mention his sister going to prison!

Steven A heads is too big no one agree with him on that topic . I bet Michael and Kobe disagree with him

Commercials as opposed to press conferences, media days, public appearances? Lmao grow up

You don’t count.

who?

@@robertwilliams9935 jah wick morant

@@Ebkkim6grow up goofy

@@Ebkkim6 dude nothing bad with a little bad publicity. it beats no publicity aka kawhi

He said he wasn’t promoting the game while he was in the in season tournament commercials at the time. Hes just talking

So Jokic ain’t a superstar because he lowkey too ? Cmon now 🤷🏿‍♂️

Exactly! People pay more attention to the messenger than the message. People like Kawhi so they refuse to see SAS point. He's not wrong! Nobody can name a commercial Kawhi was in by himself.. Shoot we just saw Jokic in a hotel commercial with a horse. Lol! I love Kawhi as a player but bro don't talk.

No he’s wrong. People understand that clearly

@@Dre_Key How? What commercial have you seen Kawhi in? NBA cares? Kawhi speak? Anything? What have you seen? SAS isn't talking about his talent when he's on the floor. What have you seen that says dang Kawhi cares?

If Harden was on any of those teams Kawhi won on he would have rings.

Every team harden has played in has been a superteam lol

Not Rockets wit Jeremy Lin lmao​@@Sports-media180

Good point.

Bro shut up lmao

Why did Kawhi sit out for a year on the Spurs when everyone said he was healthy? Yes he got hurt like every other player in the NBA.

Both things can be true

people dont listen they just respond

Hate SAS but he is right on this .

Yeah people didn’t comprehend that

Didn't have to he said it all in the beginning SAS a joke

He mentioned Kawhi’s accomplishments bringing Toronto raptors a championship included. And excusing his lack of game playing due to his bad knees

@@rodw.7761y’all are wrong that’s why. Name another person who doesn’t show up for the job 70% of the time but makes millions and gets promotions and accolades? Lmao stfu

​@@ThisAinThatMetro Ben Simmons.

@@ThisAinThatMetro how is Kawhi any different than KD in that regards then. only difference is Kawhi doesnt have family members come on the show to put stephen a in his place like KD does.

Only issue with that is I don’t think he would be in the superstar category more all star but superstar label aside yeah bens worse

@@swisscloud4309 yeah but he was , rookie of the year. All rookie first team, 3 time all star, 2 time all defensive team, all nba team . Steals leader, and paid a max contact.. all to never take a 3 pointer , be scared to shoot free throws and nearly never available lol oh and he was projected to be the next Lebron 😩😩😩

Cant even say NBA. Dudes maybe the least exciting superstar but worst? Eh. Got gun charges, dirty players, Sexual deviants, locker room cancers. Just cuz theyre more Marketable dont mean theyre a better superstar than Kawhi. If anything weve seen how being Marketable and then screwing up can flip a teams whole brand. If Draymond wasnt on GS that team would have 80% less haters. Off top nothing else woild have to be done.

but we arent talking about WHAT HAVE YOU DONE LATELY....SAS is talking ALL Time. Come on man, Karl Malone got ZERO rings and had a kid with a 13 yr old. Id say Karl is worse

@@travissmith6380what does that have to do with anything?

​@@Knabtube626 bc it proves kawhi isnt the worst superstar ? Lol . Bro oj killed two people like c'mon . And dad is mad he's good a getting what he wants plain n simple. Bro is mad he can negotiate better then all of us combined

Can say that about everyone besides jokic then

@@kararal9834they’re talking about performance not off court allegations, 4 out of 19 playoff games while being absolutely silent sounds like something a mid level exception player would do

Kawhi never lost to Luka

Stop, Stephen.

Yall are dumb

Facts

He got bad knees they keep paying him that ain’t on him.

Hell. "Marketing" wise not basketball wise, Lamelo is more marketable as a superstar than Kawhi lmao

stephen A is liar. Just like your partner lied to you

You're wrong bc he didn't even load manage much this season… SA’s point was he doesn't do anything to promote the brand.

@@dwaynejones9074and look what happened to him.

@@dwaynejones9074stupid asf he still missed the playoffs😂😂😂 you get paid to be an athlete if you can’t compete you shouldn’t get paid. If he got paid on a game by game basis he’d be bottom 10 in earnings

Kawhi is not load managing you idiot he had 2 knee surgeries and a degenerative quad and played most of the season. Yall are so stupid you can’t think for yourselves

@@MrMgkman13injuries. Load managing is a team thing for all teams not Kawhi. Yall need to stop with the narratives. He’s not a DPOy and 2 time champ and 2 time MVP from being lazy.

No, because he’s still right. He’s not saying Kawhi is a scrub. If you’re a team like Charlotte or the Clippers of course you’ll take Kawhi. But if you could trade him for any other SUPERSTAR, someone who you know could bring you a ring just as much, you’re really not taking that trade? With all the injuries and not promoting your brand?

@jso416 your a delusional idiot for saying anything of Kawhi taking any1 to the finals.

Nobody doubted Kyrie's talent. The problem pas elsewhere. Who you gonna take to greatness if you're not available?

was elsewhere

If it applies now, then we should pick KD as "worst superstar"

@@alessioraccagni3753 KD has been more relevant since he left the warriors than Kawhi has been since he left the Raptors.

No it doesn’t. He’s just wrong just like you are

@@Dre_Key you are paid for present and future performance in contracts. The expectations were based on prior performance. You must like to overpay people for doing nothing i guess, let alone show up when it matters.

What made OJ the worst Superstar when he was playing? He was an all time great! When he was “accused” of double murder he was retired by then.

this is an extremely ignorant opinion. do you not understand what publicity and marketability are? being infamous beats being unknown

​@@howarddickersonjr.6994 Dude murdered two people. It's funny the people other people choose to defend.
