‘This is a DISGRACE!’ - Stephen A. RIPS KD and the Nets after the loss to the Warriors | First Take 

Stephen A. says KD needs to accept that Kyrie left the Nets hanging: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6ov9z9eYs6Q.html 'Kyrie Irving has BETRAYED KD' - Stephen A.: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hUrurmzsHVA.html Kyrie Irving 'CANNOT BE TRUSTED!' - Stephen A.: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DkTrAkVsxmM.html

When Draymond told KD, “We don’t need you, we won without you”.... he was deadass serious 😂

Stephen a said it best, KD will be remembered more for leaving Steph Curry than joining him🤯

I haven't heard a Stephen A rant this epic in awhile

When KD hugged curry last night, he told Steph, "Save me bro."

"We don't even need a coach." - The great philosopher and phenom, Kyrie Irving

KD said they league caught up to the warriors that’s why he left and i have yet to see it.. warriors playing elite basketball right now.

This was a super team at the start of the year. Now KD has “no help” Yep

I’m a Warriors fan but I’m low key glad Durant left. Even though it would’ve been easier to get more chips we would have been robbed of seeing MVP level dominant Curry like we are seeing now.

hearing ''the nets are the team to beat'' all summer long aged like *MILK*

Kd really left the warriors to escape Steph’s shadow just to hear his own Brooklyn fans chanting MVP for Steph 😂

ngl this was one of steven a's best rants

Sums up the teams so far this season: •Warriors: The Favorites •Nets: The Contenders •Lakers: The Comedy •Wizards: The Surprise •76ers: The Drama •Heat: The Dark Horse •Bulls: The Rising team •Suns: The Underrated •Bucks: The Resting Champs •Clippers: The Meh 🤷🏻‍♂️ •Jazz: The Regular season champs •Mavericks: The one man show •Blazers: The Dissapointment •Knicks: The Inconsistent •Hornets: The “we beat strong teams for some reasons” team •Celtics: The Small ball •Thunder: The Youth •Cavs: The Injured •Wolves: The fake big 3 •Pelicans: Get Ingram out of there •Rockets: The Rebuild •Kings: The Nobody cares •Memphis: The JA show •Nuggets: The Average •Spurs: The outdated style of basketball •Hawks: The cocky •Magic: This is still a team? •Pistons: Getting 1st pick didn’t change anything •Pacers: The underwhelming •Raptors: Champs only 2 years ago and nobody remembers.

After these rule changes, I'm officially putting harden on fraud watch.

If I was KD and I heard Nets fans cheer for Steph more than the Nets, I'd remember that.

100% facts. KD leaving Golden State was the worst decision by a superstar in a very long time

I 100% agree with what Stephen A was saying about the fan base. Watching that game and hearing people LITERALLY booing harden and Aldridge when they were at the free-throw line was blowing my mind.

I was hating on SAS for kicking Max off the show but... this rant reminds me why I also love SAS an analyst. This was absolute gold to watch, haha.

It’s hilarious how Steph has been putting up huge numbers since the rule changes were made with minimum FTAs but harden and dame look like 65 ovr generic rec center players without help from the refs. Dont ever compare Steph to those guys again lmao

It's really unfair to compare the fans in Golden State with the fans in Brooklyn. We've been watching guys like Curry, Green, and Thompson grow up from being rookies, to all-stars, to champions. Brooklyn fans don't have that level of investment in three mercenaries like Durant, Irving, and Harden. Even when the Warriors weren't having a good season, they were still "our guys" and we did our best to support them. It takes time to build that level of trust between fan and player, and the only way to fast track that is by winning championships, which the Nets obviously haven't done either.

This one aged soooooo well

I’ve been saying this. KD will never play basketball as beautifully as he did on Golden State. It was the perfect system for him, and Steph was the perfect PG for KD.

"Steph Curry shimmying and joking around "😂 Steph is something else man

This was a blast from the past for Stephen A

ESPN be smart to push this back out there. SA was on point completely.

Thought they were playing in Oakland the way the crowd was cheering for Curry.

As a Nets fan, I agree with everything he just said. Fans have to do better, every game ive been to we seem to get quieter and quieter. It’s embarrassing.

I live by the Barclays Center and I can co-sign on the Nets having zero fan base. You see fans of the opposing team take over Barclays all the time and it’s worse when the Knicks play there and it becomes a Knicks home game. The Nets left their passionate fans in Jersey when they basically moved into the Knicks backyard. As bad as the Knicks been over the years you never questioned the fan base when they show up at MSG. The Nets have made the playoffs the last three seasons and barely make the back pages in NY.

I'm so happy KD left the warriors. He made the entire league believe he was the reason golden state won those championships and people forgot about Steph.

Stephen A woke up in the middle of the night smelling blood 😭😭

Imagine thinking "I need to leave Steph to go play with flat-earth Kyrie"

Finally someone admitted the Barclays Center is a joke. Worst building I’ve ever seen a game in. Trash.

This rant hits different in July 2022.

Best thing that ever happened to Wiggins career was KD leaving Golden State. Minnesota was killing his development.

Those MVP chants for Steph had to strike a nerve with KD.

He’s right there’s no reason nets should be looking like this. No Kyrie, big problem.

This was literally the best take of the year with straight facts💯

I just love that chef, green , Thompson have found a way to stay together and this year it has to pay off. Ain't no other teams have the patience.

No help? He has an MVP and top 5 scorer with him

This is a classic already love your takes SAS

Warriors now are once again Champions

*KD goes 6/19 and has the worst +/- on the team* SAS: “KD has no help”

Love or hate the Knicks they would never root for the opposition team or player Embarrassing 🤣😂

This Man is speaking facts 💯

Love hearing Stephen A. Smith when he rants like this. When the other team cheers for the other teams best player, it’s just a spit in the face.

Steph Curry was.. Steph Curry is… Steph Curry will always be better than KD. Steph Curry dialed his own game back for the sake of the team. He’s never been salty about Iggy winning FMVP. Never been salty about KD winning FMVPs. Steph literally chose winning over personal glory. KD benefited a lot from the cavs doubling Steph even during timeouts. And for him to play like this after KD left shows how deadly Steph is

This is the same man who criticized Lebron for getting swept in the 2018 finals with an injured Kevin love. Now says KD “has no help”. Lol the double standards.

I love when Steven A goes off like this lol this is passion mixed with the truth!!! 😂😂💯💯

7months later, the warriors beat the team that swept him...ouch

Lol Steve Nash really looked like he was going to have the easiest coaching job in the NBA for a minute 😂

Its crazy how everytime KD struggles the media wont blame him but they will say that he actually needs more help while he has been playing with at least 2 other hall of famers at his teams. So pathetic

Stephen Smith is 💯 correct, the first half of the game was great, the 2nd half the Nets were deflated and embarrassed.The Nets without Kyrie will be fighting for a wildcard 🃏..

Best take Stephen A has had in years.

Imagine having KD and Harden and half your fans are chanting MVP to Steph as he is shooting from halfcourt and blowing you out

Ngl Stephen spitting facts about the Nets losing to respectable teams lmaoo... he failed to mention the Nets losing to the Heat by double digits too

The Warriors have a hybrid San Antonio mid 2000’s defense with a hybrid mid 2000’s Phoenix offense. They’ve meshed the best of those two systems to come up with what we are currently seeing. Kd is great, but I don’t think enough emphasis has been put into just how great of a system the warriors have in place, from player development to coaching to front office, it’s a well oiled machine that keeps churning out championship caliber teams led by Steph, Klay and Dray. We are witnessing a dynasty. To think you’re simply going to leave that and capture the success you had there is a stretch.

Who's here after the nets got swept and Warriors on the verge of another chip?

One of those Classic Stephen A Rants! 😂

Kyrie gotta throw hands with Stephen A at this point

That take was Intense. I feel Steven A. on that. The Nets team along with the fan base are all looking like clowns right now

2:28 STRAIGHT GARBAGE. BEST LINE OUT OF ALL

When the Barclay center sounds more like the Oracle arena, you know it’s over for the Nets! This is STEPH CURRY’s league the best player in basketball 🏀

SAS with almost an excellent take. Only part I didn't like was the "KD had no help". He has the worst performance of the season, SAS would never let LBJ go 6/19 and be -25 and give him a break by blaming everyone else.

You know S.A.S is going hard when he has to apologize in advance..RESPECT 👍👍😂 I'm officially back on the S.A.S bandwagon!

First time I hear this man speak facts in a long time. 👍🏾👌🏾

The media is still under appreciating Stephen curry instead of talking about how curry and the warriors are great they talk about kyrie and making excuses for Durant because he struggled

It's always hilarious how arrogant Brooklyn fans get when everything is going in their favor. Thanks to Kyrie the Nets are the East Coast Clippers LMAO

As a nets fan for 5 years plus…. THIS MANN IS SPEAKING FAX

Let us just say that this aged like fine wine :D

That 117-99 gsw win should have been more. Gsw took out the starters the last 5 minutes of the game. They were on fire!

I never wanna hear another Steph kyrie comparison again. I never wanna hear another KD> Steph argument again. When Steph is ON, he’s the best player on the planet.

Stephen a was right all along

Some of Stephen A's best work right here

This is the most epic rant by a New York fan 😂😂

WOW 😮 Stephen in. this probably his most on point take in a longgggg time real shxt imo. he went IN 💯

The fact that they were calling Steph MVP in KD's house is telling

KD a mercenary. I am happy Steph finally getting the recognition he deserves.

Classic Stephen A rant right here 💯 love it

He ain’t wrong about the fanbase, half the arena was cheering the warriors 😂

LMAO, gotta love the Nets implosion. Too many divas in one place. It was doomed from the start.

KD just needs to be a leader. He needs to assert himself. As much as I like KD, there's still something about him that is lacking.

It’s crazy how SAS never gave Bron this satisfaction smh 🤦🏾‍♂️

Shout out to Tony and Jose. I've never met y'all, but good job on taking care of the Steph fans leaving last night

The Warriors are my home team and I’m lovin’ this.

This my favorite first take show, OMG ! 😂😂 But I'm 100% agree with Stephen A

Alright guys, Stephen A. deserves an Emmy after this. This is the realest thing I've seen from him

The way he's talking you would think this was game 1 of the NBA FInals.. Its a regular season game 🤦🏾‍♂️

my fave stephen a take of all time

Best SAS take of 2021👌🏾

Stephen "Box Office" Smith

Kd and Harden is good enough this ain’t got nothing to do with Kyrie 🤦🏿‍♂️

There needs to be a Nets Warriors Finals.

Tony and Jose , haha !! Love this stuff

How can you have harden as a teammate and say KD has no help.!!!????

People won’t wanna hear it but SAS is right. Kyrie not being there helped lead to this loss and the season the nets are having. KD went to Brooklyn to play WITH kyrie. At least when KD was out in 19-20 he literally couldn’t play. Kyrie is sitting out on purpose . He really can’t be trusted

Revisiting in August 2022 and Stephen A was spot on... I know Kev took his trade request back but he has RUED the day he decided to leave Champ Chef.

Missed my guy SAS. Watching from Nairobi

Even without Kyrie, there is no reason why anyone should be talking about the Nets like this with the talent they have on the roster. If the team doesn't work, it doesn't work, but it's not just because of Kyrie.

to think, KD left GSW because he felt the fan base didn't love him there. Now this? Steph taking Brooklyn's fan base. can't write it any better than this..

Reminds me when the soviets where cheering for Rocky against Drago in the Soviet Union.
