Skip disagrees with Giannis, 'this will be the easiest playoffs there ever was' | NBA | UNDISPUTED

Not the Clippers

Lakers 2020 champs

Rockets

lakers babyyy

Bucks 4-2 over the Clippers

Fr Fr 😅😂😂😂

I was gonna type the same comment. Good catch 👍

Mmh...

🤣🤣🤣

I want someone to make a Skip doll, and when you pull the string it just goes "mmm" "mmm" "mmmm"

hahahahahahahaha

Lol you can leave the bubble , they’re not going to hold you hostage there. You leave you can’t come back for your team.

🤣🤣🤣🤣💀

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"gotta win the playoff game and go wrestle"

Of course

that's what I'm saying lmao so if Lebron wins it's "check the tapes, I always said it would be the easiest"

Shannon literally only says that cause he knows the Lakers have really good odds

exactly bro smh

@@adame3021 the lakers would have had good odds regardless of Covid. They lost their best perimeter defender, lets not pretend like it'll be "easy" for anybody.

Agreed but I dont want to hear about this bs that you cant leave sure your kinda restrained and will get bored but nba players have all the time in the world here. Thats what I have a problem with

@@willseest3732 And even if they get a little bored, as long as their opponents is having a similair level of bordom I think it is all fair. It not like number one seeds can leave when they want to and others can't at all.

Wait and see who will sit out plus who can't play because of the virus

Yep exactly how i feel. Everyones facing the same circimstances. Its the fairest a playoff has every been imo

but number one the team that's playing against the other teams are going to be fully rested is well and number two there will be a lot of incomplete rosters so yeah this deserves an asterisk to whoever wins

Ya. They started that part of the talk and it may seem mean but I hoped they all get thanos snapped or something

Yup, he is padding his hand in case that happens, then he can asterisk.

Y’all saying it’s a weak chip but if lebron wins, it’s a tough ring to get

@Jiggy Thanos you have a dislike for a person that will never meet you or care about you and plenty of people like lebron besides young people and Shannon's a prime example.

But someone explain how its hard tho cause Shannon explanation is trash

antonio green well first of all, there’s no home court advantage. the top teams worked hard all season to get a better record go have home court in the playoffs. also, there’s a lot of mental stress. with covid and the blm movement, it is hard to also focus on playing basketball. also, after not playing for so long, there is going to be rust and some chemistry issues. especially teams that were just starting to click before the season got suspended. In general, changing the style of games and pushing them back will affect the brain and body since they aren’t used to it.

Everyone except LeBron will be rusty

Reasons it will be easier:
1. No wear and tear/minor injuries going into the playoffs.
2. Teams will play handicap matches against teams hurt by the virus
3. No road games/fan pressure
4. No travel
5. Nothing to do at Disney beyond work on your game and connect with your teammates
It'll be harder for some, easier for others

Chris Rojas True

Get rid of number 2 and 3. That part actually makes it easier

Chris Rojas, your first reason is literally why it will be tougher 😂😂

Yet you’re still watching his show? Seems like he’s doing something right considering he’s been on national TV for over a decade

+Jamison S If dogs could read, yours would be giving you that same look in that profile pic after that response.

​@@jamisons9971 Skip can be somewhat entertaining even if he is not good as a sports reporter, analyst or whatever he is. So, to answer you.. he does something right by doing it wrong.. Shocking statements, a little bit of comedy, outlandish takes, shiting on Lebron even if they are talking about golf.. Sometimes I like him, some others I can't wait for him to retire.

@@nate8604🤣🤣😭😭

@@nate8604 This Response is Goated lol

But still a prison. Would you rather be at home living your best life or be in the best prison ever? I'm pretty sure most reasonable people would want to be home with their families and friends

It does sound like the best prison ever tho lol

Tbh a prison like this would make incarceration rates even higher than they already are lol.

Lol if this is a prison sign me up for it.

Yeah, making millions in a perfectly safe bubble, sounds awful...

Right no traveling 4 month rest the whole theme park and staff 24/7 if they made it to league they know what mental toughness is the game itself not this dumb stuff

Disney World is soooo tough

Being away from your family for 3 months, albeit not very long, isn't what these guys are accustom to. Along with that, they can't leave the resort. I understand that Disney is an awesome place to be, I've been there myself, but having the freedom to get away is taken away from them for those 3 months. It's not life threatening or anything, but it does suck.

King Larr a lot of these teams will be home after a week we’re only talking finals teams that will be gone that long

@@derrickmason7457 Me too.

They playing 22 games before playoffs. Chill

Jason Cafeo no they’re not. Each team is playing 6 games before the playoffs. Just to get to the obligated 72-73

@@owtkvst same thing. They r big boys. Itll b fine. Relax

There playing 8games before the playoffs wtf y'all talking about and regardless how hard or easy it is for them it's an equal playing ground

@@boomersooners286
Thank you! Lol.

And the yankees

or lebrons james 2 of his three champs have asteriks next to them. we know if the league didnt step in and do some shady sht with the fouls on curry adn thompson and then suspending draymond lebron would only have 2 and if you take away all the fouls that the league called on kevin durant russel westbrook and james hardin backin what was it 2012 then thats another chip away from him so he would have one chip that ray allen had to make the shot heard round the world to save his legacy lebrong james is overrated hes a great player but not the best player tbh the best pure basketball player who does really nothing wrong is kawhi Leonard he has no weakness and damn near every skill of his is on the elite level

There’s going to be an asterisk. You think the record books won’t mention the fact that there was a global pandemic that affected many NBA players and cut the season short? You can argue that the champions should still be honored as if they won a standard championship, but to say there shouldn’t be an asterisk is insane.

BigSky Ok skip

Usually agree. But injuries do matter dude. If jordan got hurt in any finals run and the bulls lost. You gonna tell me it doesnt matter? Some things do deserve and asterisk. Just not nearly as much as the sports media tries to portray.

He stay calling that mane that 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Right?! Can't switch up now. Checks been cashing for too long

no its because hes the only person in the media that speaks the truth on lebron james whether you like it or not lebron jame is overrated has been his whole career

Anyone saying quarantine or bubble is like prison is very soft. Oh boo hoo, you are stuck inside your house for 14 days. What will I ever do to deal with the torture??? Learn how to entertain yourself, without the need for constant stimulation and socializing. Read a book. Or watch documentaries. You still have food and a roof over your head in quarantine or bubble.

Americans looking real soft lately. If this Corona was more deadly wed be long gone before anyone else.

Ellen actually is on house arrest..Dats why her show got cancelled on June 26th..Google it

@@js09js09 lol you can do all of that in prison too and have food and a roof

Too bad it won’t ever happen

Kareem already won one for them so that's an overstatement

vanni Johnson 😂😂😂😂 1971, could black folks even get in the game?

It is but at some point you gone wanna leave . These dudes ain’t never been told no you can’t leave or go wherever u wanna go . But the luxury amenities is like paradise tho 💯🤣🤣

He did 😂😂😂

Your comment is the epitome of terrible reasoning skills. A Dr. that has never had Cancer can't talk about what someone should expect. You have never been a politician therefore you can not have an opinion about politics.

@@Onthebrink5 nah it's different. Skip, a non-athlete, is talking about how easy/hard something is going to be for an athlete, or how they are going to feel. The equivalence is more similar to a white person saying how easy/hard something is for a black person in America, or in your examples: a doctor telling a cancer patient how easy or hard their cancer fight is going to be (how its gonna impact their family, social, and mental health), or someone saying that being a politician is easy (aka wow its so easy to be a politician and fight for what they / their people want, not taking into account the pressure and power dynamic hurdles they have to go through to do so). These are the kind of takes that Skip makes that can annoy people, because he talks like he's been through it and understands the athletes better than the actual athletes.

@@TheSilverfox1234 No it isnt. That is how simple it is. The pressure and power dynamics of millionaires that play a game for a living is not similar in any way whatsoever. The only people that believe that it is different tend to make up nonsense such as. It is the equivalent to race relations in the United States. When it isnt similar in any way. You and idiots like you are twisting his words in order to confirm your own biases. Keep strawmanning his position though.

@@Onthebrink5 I think the comment of the guy above you flew over your head indefinitely. He wasn't ever claiming that the issues he listed were on the same level of importance as the situation of these basketball players he was using a conceptual comparison to refute the argument made in your first comment and provide a more fitting example than the one's you listed. The point he tried to make is Skip tries to talk about how these athletes should feel even though he has never been an athlete and can't really understand how grave a change it is for them. Shannon has a better idea because he was a professional athlete and can conceptualize how his life would have been altered. No one's saying Skip can't have an option anyone can have an opinion however it's easy to take his opinion with a grain of salt because he doesn't have the experiences of a professional athlete to back reinforce his ideas.

​Shannon has literally no idea since he hasn't played in 17 years. Shannon doesn't seem to have any opinion besides being the devils advocate to Skip and vice versa. I would take Shannons opinion with a whole shaker of salt. It is cool that your bias is showing through though. When you make the claim that someone that hasn't done X doesn't have the experience to talk about X. You have already lost very basic reasoning and logic. Shannon has absolutely zero idea about how the new generation of athlete feels. He wasn't even playing football when smart phones were a thing. You don't need to be a professional athlete to reinforce ideals. You don't want to reinforce preconceived biases if you want logically consistent beliefs. I mean intelligent people don't. Shannon wouldn't hit a 105 on an I.Q. test. How grave a change? Like the 100s of millions of people working right now that don't make millions playing a game. Keep sticking up for the most privileged cry babies in the world.

Extremely ignorant of Shannon. He never had a hard life if he thinks they are going through something like prison..... 😒

KRplus viewer word I was rolling wen he said that 😂😂😂

the diarrhea game not the flu game

Cept none of the players are actually sick and if they did get sick, they'd get kicked out immediately

AC2 you ever burst out in sweat from a belly ache and have convulsions during timeouts. It’s not regular sweat either, this is an NBA player with elite conditioning and he’s pooling sweat off his head shaking over.

@AC2 You mean the media. This been out before the Last Dance

That would be crazy and a shame

It's going to happen watch.

@@kennedysmith5493 no sir. Impossible. The claw really saved they Life. He was the superstar that DeRozan should have been sadly😔 facts!💯

@chris snow. You don't have to worry about that this time Toronto. Lol.

@@Whoumeu Not impossible. Just improbable. This team had a better record without Kawhi than with him, despite being 5th in games lost to injury this year. I wouldn't bet money on it. But I wouldn't be shocked if they won either.

You ever been stuck in a hotel for 3 months ?

Jiggy Thanos you comparing the military to the Nba ?

We know this is your burner Skip...

KRWROACH 🧢.

Jiggy Thanos these are NBA players not the military. They can’t see their families over 3 months. They talk and see them ever damn day. Not about all those stupid perks dude. People who sign up for the military expect it. Nba players don’t.

It’s still legit but definitely not worth two

Ohh u a LeBron hater😂😂😂

I think your statement is actually reversed according to Skip.

Nah it'll definitely be the other way around if Lebron wins. You're trippin.

It all depends if KEY players aren’t playing on the opposing teams... cuz in spite of certain teams being favorites.. upsets happen playoff time n if for example jokic gets the rona n don’t play n lakers win then there will b an asterisk...just like if lebron or ad got sick n another team beats us(die hard LAKERS fan(not lebron,Lakers fan))

That's how you get 2 3peats.

People are lucky he quit lol 8-9 rings if he don’t

@@Ninjersey1 nah he definitely loses to the rockets if he doesn't retire 2 times

No he doesn't lose to rockets.

King B but he deff gets another chip or two he was only 33

Talk about it.

He just padding excuses incase lebron wins it
If kawhi wins it, I bet you won't be hearing any of this

Neither can you by that logic, stupid arguement.

@@maiLfps maybe you could get the spellings right before calling someone stupid
Bruh it ain't a stupid logic
Yes they have been quarantine for months now but they had their families with them and now all of a sudden you are away from them..that's tough for a wide variety of reasons

@Reese B u realize the regular season is 82 games..

You def worried bout yo fam in these crazy days... COVID and riots... Remember Bron house was vandalized before...

Jiggy Thanos u dumber 🤦🏾‍♂️

@Jiggy Thanos I was about the say the same thing. NBA players are spoiled adults can't handle 3 months from home after being there for 5 straight months getting paid and doing nothing. Military are the real heros.

Jiggy Thanos lmaooo regardless of job occupation bieng away from your family can be hard while some like the military can and probably do have it harder it doesn’t change anything. Y’all be thinkin these players ain’t human n just want people to be able to suffer more ,cause they get payed more . And military are heroes to you but don’t forget they villains to somebody else 😂

Exactly! We all know why he’s saying this lol
