Damn Max is right. Kawhi saved the NBA lol
The fact that Max can quote The Wire increases his likability by at least 10 points
@Matt Beckstrom they’re both basketball experts, the only people with more expertise are players… go sitdown somewhere dumb ass
@nono 222 gtfoh Skip Bayless left how long ago?
Has he been replaced? Have their ratings dropped? Cut it the fuck out… People who weren’t born in the late nineties or early 2000’s are the only ones that feel that way… basically all you bitches still living in your mother’s basement and NEVER went to college or even graduated high school… fuckin dumb ass
@Stephen Ahern you’r name and lack of profile pic is whats cringe… trolling bitch
@Kenny Smith that comment makes you a WHOLE BITCH!!!
@Matt Beckstrom thr fact that Max is Jewish means he’s Hebrew which is NEVER WHITE… dumb fuckin millennials
For once Max’s analogy makes sense. Kawhi is the Marlo Stanfield of the NBA they literally have the same demeanor
*made
facts
YALL SLEEPING ON MAX’S “KAWHI IS MARLO” COMPARISON. 100% ON POINT.
Whitlock
Facts, but most dont know who Marlo is or the EPIC, best show ever, program The Wire
@George0880 folks really don’t know Marlo lol. “MY NAME IN THE STREETS???”
@D. Coleman My name is my name!!!
George0880 Throw the dock season in the trash
Rumor is Uncle Dennis wanted his 20 piece wings all flats, through out Toronto and they wasn’t having it. Meanwhile, Clips assured him, that he not only can have flats but any beverage of choice ??
Kawhi’s uncle is like OMAR…can’t work for his own sh%t!
Lmao
Lol
The flats got more meat and less cartilage. Uncle know how to eat. Boardman gets paid, and gets fed quality flats.
???????????
Uncle Dennis out here moving like suge knight straight up punked them lmao ??left them like Ricky asking for they’re ball back ?
Stephen A Snitch??♂️- remember what happened to Wallace? Since we talkin bout The Wire?
Aint nothing gonna happen to him tf loool. This ball not drug dealing
“Yay Ryan is gone!”
*Sees molly come back*
“OH GOD NO”
Molly dosen’t say too much, Ryan was straight garbage.
@Joe Sanders lol “Play me 1on1 and I put ur butt in shape” -Ryan Hollins
@Joe Sanders you haven’t been watching this show much, she interrupts *ALL* the time
@Jeron Nomo Lmao no she’s not, sir pls stay off the Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeddddduhh
@Jesterrino ehh not really
Never clicked on something so damn fast… finally Stephen A and max again
Stephen A was ? on this segment… I been saying this the whole time lol. Now all of a sudden kawhi overrated and trash but when the lakers thought they was finna get him he was next up ??
To Mr. Ryan Hollins and ESPN. Stay off the WEED! S.A.S, WELCOME BACK!!!!
Really good analysis from max with that wired reference
You are Beautiful facts!
Max: welcome back friend
SAS: the BLASPHEMY!!!!
I’m siding with Whatever Ryan hollins says I heard he’s the best.
Proposition Joe:
I treated you like a son.
Marlo:
I wasn’t made to play the son.
Facts
He used the perfect example
I’m sure all the teams contacting kawhi and other free agents prior to free agency violated rules as well.
Judging by the comments ESPN accomplished their mission last week, re-direct all of the heat to Ryan Hollins so that everyone stops talking about Molly.
This needs ATTENTION
don’t worry, once molly starts using her big mouth again people will bash her again.
Wat happened with Molly tho, y were people talking bout her in the 1st place?
For the first time Max said something that make sense, Kawhi and KD for instance saved the NBA!!
the lakers should have just signed butler and finito…..never made sense to get kawhi…it was clear he was playing them like fools because kawhi will never want to play with lebron, and he said so in the past….
Max that was beautiful. Perfect analogy. He wasn’t made to play the son. He is his own man. Yes Uncle Dennis is advising him, but who doesn’t need that,and it’s family too perfect.
