they were so off abt wiseman.... way off
Wiseman or lamello will win rookie of the year
They need there job stripped
Bruh andrew bogut a offensive threat!?!? hes a defensive threat😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
This didnt age too long....Wiseman looks like a Veteran out there
Max is already wrong about Wiseman not being a shooter lol
Lol, Wiseman making Kellerman look pretty bad. SAS is the only guy who made any sense here. Dude is 7’ tall, has shoulders like Dwight Howard, but unlike Howard, wiseman can actually shoot the ball.
Wow, Stephen A made a sense? How come? It's so rare.
Wiggins and aubre has to step up to help curry with draymond for the defensive and leading the young bloods to do best, absent of klay is hurting the warriors and the only hope is to add energy and eliminate mistakes, forget the last two games make sure to win the next one
Wiseman looks like he can shoot 3s lol. Wiseman is perfect for them
Lol this did not age well
Either way the Warriors are great at pickin em and developing em. They like that guy uk that's always buying shitty houses and cars that have good bones, then fixing em up and flippin em for 10x what they payed. I think Wiseman can be a great addition, but if not they'll make em the best he can be and trade him for someone they really need. I never doubt this organization.
Stephen A... Jay ain't like u and Max, u only needed to say Jay once and he was listening. Lmao, dude says Jay like 10x while he's already silent (and i am taking into account the slight signal delay). Dudes so used to communicating that way at this point that he thinks that's just how everyone does it now.
Wiseman is a 3 pt shooter watch the tape shut up max
One clown says he and Draymond are similar players. The other one says DeAndre Jordan. Did they ever see him play? At all? He has a better offensive skillset and more tools (offensively) than both of those guys right NOW. Through two games it's safe to say he can stroke the three ball. I knew that already. Wondering if these two are talking just to hear themselves talk....
Now what
Who is here when wiseman is 6 for 8 from three in his first two games??😂
You go a .smith,👍👍 you know you're stuff👍
Now you're wrong against Wiseman, he will be a super star soon 💯
Everything Jay Will and Max said in this video was proven wrong first game of the season against Brooklyn. Wiseman hit like four 3s amd scored 19 in 25 min. Along eith 4 rebounds and 2 steals
The Warriors never had a legit Center. Like the Chicago Bulls never had a talent like Wiseman. It’s only a question of how fast Wiseman develops. You don’t get better by not selecting a seven foot freak athlete. Klay Thompson’s availability doesn’t change Wiseman’s value. Quite frankly, it only enhances it. Few teams will be able to single him in the paint. Double Wiseman and get murdered by Steph.
Whos here after first game of james wiseman outshine both edwards and ball 😂🤣
Yes James wiseman get 20 today in your face
Well 19 pts, 6 rebs, 2 stls not bad for a debut
The sad thing is there not any James Wiseman highlights and game play videos for people see how talented he is! He might be a big man but he's going shock people how much of a well rounded game he has! This why he was the projected number 1 pick! Great fit for the warriors who needed that guy!
Wiseman is goin to perform along side chef curry 🏆🏆🏆
Max is a clown. Why does this person with no understanding of basketball have a platform?
These guys are sleeping on wiseman's shoting ability. Haha
Bogut with a step back fade a way three!!!
Chill guys,don't believe what you hear in the media ,golden state knows how to develop there players ,trust ,we believe ,were ready ,we los warriors 🔥
I really doubt these guys even watch the games. Wiseman is an athletic big man who can shoot and run the floor. He isn’t one of these traditional low post centers. Wiseman is more of a Kevin Garnett type than he is Deandre Jordan.
Green and Wiseman are similar players?! Huh???
Exactly. What hat did he pull that comparison out of..
Why do they say Wiseman cannot shoot. He is so young. Nobody really knows for sure. But a big man who moves well sounds good to me. And by the way he averaged 19 points in 23 minutes at college. Sounds like he can shoot to me.
Im confused by these jokes of analytical talk
hey guys!!could you shut up your mouth please!!😂😂the real game is not yet start lets see first.
GSW made mistake when they pass on lemelo ball
Media scared that Lebrons legacy will be threatened again... 😂😂😂😂
Max you should quit your media career you suck IGUODALA
Raymond and Wiseman are not similar. GS has lacked a low post presence for years. most teams don't have decent centers that can rule the block. Wiseman opens the court for Steph. Wiseman scored 23 pts in college playing 20 mins. have you seen Wiseman? he's a beast with an animal mentality. and he can run the floor as well. best puck they could have chosen. Wiseman to me is the best player in the draft. period.
Jay. Man. Wow! You said Bogut was a scoring threat. And a perimeter scorer at that. I had to mean passing threat. I’m sure that was a mistake.
Should’ve drafted LaMelo. He could’ve allowed Steph to play combo guard/shooting guard. They could’ve traded Draymond since he isn’t the defender he once was and his playmaking ability is lacking when GSW doesn’t have the overwhelming talent advantage. Steph, Wiggins, LaMelo and some shooters gets you the 6th or 7th seed. You tread water until Klay comes back in 2022. While developing LaMelo for the future under Steph Curry. Idk how that wasn’t on people’s mind even with Klay healthy. It’s not like rebounding mattered to the warriors before. Even when they lost to Toronto. Toronto had mor offensive fire power with Kawhi, Vanvleet, Lowry, Siakim, Green, Gasol, Ibaka. It was raining 3’s. I saw numerous draft comparisons for Wiseman to Deandre Jordan. That is not who I want the Number 2 overall pick to become. Now if Wiseman could be Deandre Ayton then that’s a different story.
Lmao why is Stephen a smith cutting him off he’s spitting facts
Bogut made literally 2 three pointers in 247 games with the Warriors.
Who listen to bronsexual mas kellerman?
SHUT UP MAX 😤😤😤😤
Max is just all east coast
this is why I am missing The Starter show...this arguments, this arguments, arguments......it so toxic, baseless arguments. my ears hurt
Only person that make sense here is smith the other just plain playing their role to contradict haha
that might have been the worst segment on TV ever, no one knew anything about what they were talking about, nothing was making sense and they all were having like five different conversations about nothing. it's like they talking just to be talking, ohhhh wait........
He said bogut shooting and sounded dumb 😂
Man, Steph, Wiggins, and Kelly will run the floor, Draymond will run and create and defend, Wiseman just needs to rim run, set picks, rebound, and play solid D without fouls. It’s a lot for a rookie, but it’s possible.
I’m a warriors fan and I’m pretty sure bogut was not allowed to shoot unless he had too😭
Wiseman can shoot tho...
Warriors needed a center though, and he looks like a dam good prospect ... 7.1, good defense, rebounding, can score in the paint... It’s a nice pick I think...
Do this man just say Bogut could shoot?
He is a good choice ... i very glad with Wisemam
The hungry money chronologically juggle because pair noticeably attack alongside a jobless ethernet. angry, shut bomb
Stephen A always a couple steps off the mark 🤣
Time will tell, but I think Wiseman was the best option for GS.
I’m never watching this show again I never seen bogut shoot EVER
Who told max that Wiseman can't shoot
Max is a warriors hater for life ... period ...and would never be better than Stephen A. on the show either ...
JAMES WHO?
Stephen A can talk over everyone but hates it when others talk over him lol
Steven A Goat 🐐
The Warriors gonna be ok with a healthy Curry I’m sure his play will make everybody play better . Wiseman could put up 18 to 20 and 10 his rookie year mark my words . Jay Williams makes me sick sometimes and this coming from a Die hard duke fan
SAS is insufferable
Too Early to Call ! Potential can big big.... Can run the floor, block Shots...
Max Kellerman has only one argument and somehow contradicts himself.
Number 2?!?!
