Man sometimes I don't know if Max is trying to make Stephen A angry or is just plain stupid. To watch more Heated Takes between Max and Stephen A, Go Subcribe to ESPN: / espn Max Kellerman vs Stephen A Smith #firsttake #espn #sports
@@colonelgibbs8357 So KD is not a top 5 player in the NBA? The Warriors lose to the Cavs, KD comes in and its 8-1 and he wins 2 Finals MVP. Not top 5? Ok Max.
Zayn Rivers stop it with that BS that argument might have worked against somebody like Allen Iverson but the fact of the matter is KD is the most talented scorer ever and is 7 ft tall!!! Lebron is nowhere near the offensive player KD is and is so lethal at scoring it overpowers Lebrons assists and rebounds clearly.. Stop talking basketball
@@bradleypilapil4076 Being a good debater isn’t always about who’s right or wrong, it’s how you carry the conversation, yourself and your opinions. SAS literally just screams the whole time trying to be the loudest one in the room.
Steven A is so annoying more than max even if max says off.the wall stuff alot. Steven A is more annoying and mpre.off.the wall and always interrupts by being louder
GeorgiaBulldawg Killa I first thought you were talking about Curry, I was like why would you bring up Curry on this Max Convo, then I just realized this was a Stephen A vid
Max added so much to First Take. Steven met his match as far as debating goes. The show isn’t nearly what it was now that Michael Irvin is there. Hope Steven is happy he can win every argument now!
Max should've only been on espn to talk boxing that's it, he knows the exact square root of jack shit about football, baseball, or basketball. Man thought Kawhi was more clutch than Kobe nuff said.
No man in this universe who calls kobe trash and Iguodala over curry deserves to be called superior.The iguodala one is a meme now btw.He got fired cuz he wasnt an actual baller,relied too much in analytics qnd simply had garbage takes. He even said AD was better than KD 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
@@fabmelo4195 You realize they have to argue opposite takes, right? Max was given the losing argument and _still_ was giving Stephen A difficult debates. Max's biggest weakness was everyone's else's too-- predictions. But you know what? At least he had the balls to make them. Have you ever even seen another ESPN employee make a serious/bold prediction since? They don't. Because they're scared of looking dumb or risk credibility. Max went for it despite being wrong on several occasions, and I have 110% respect for that.
@@SUPERMA5TER it dont matter.His takes were so trash at times that he would even make people walk off set.Very similar to Ryan Hollins who is another trash commentator who lost his job for simply garbage takes. Bold??Nah those takes were dumb and Im glad hes gone
If LeGone had to play in the 80’s he would have been just another no name player. Bad Boy Pistons and Birds Celtics would have made his weak minded ass retire his rookie year 💯
@@Anthony_RIZZelneckJUST CUZ BIRD OWNED MJ IN THE PLAYOFFS...DOESNT MEAN HE WUD MAKE LEBRON. B4 PIPPEN JORDAN COULDNT WIN A PLAYOFF SERIES. LET ALONE CARRY A TEAM TO THE FINALS LIKE LEBRON.😂😂😂
It's a clown tactic that wouldn't even hold in a middle school debate. The idiots who can't pick up on it think it's funny or "entertaining". The reasonable adults know it's called patronizing and a low form that can get you KO'd irl against the wrong person. Back to what you were saying, so hilarious, the loud to quietly talking to get his point across. How does SAS come up with this stuff? So hilarious...
So KD is better than Lebron offensively? Right. In Stephen A's argument Magic is a trash offensive player because he is not a great shooter. Because apparently that is all that matters, nevermind that Lebron averages the same as KD in scoring and has almost double the assists in average.
Outside of Max's sheer Brady hate, I probably agree with him on almost every other sports topic he debates with SAS lol. I think Max gets an unjustified bad rep tbh
Kellerman is an idiot. Brings politics into his sports & hated on brady for years, said kawhi was more clutch than kobe and said he’d choose igoudala over steph
Ngl i didn't like them together. Max seemed like a good dude and for some reason Stephen A would get really really mad with him. Like you could tell he didn't like Max for some reason.
...the more i listen the more i agree with Max, he has more sound arguments and Steven A just be saying whatever he wants. I really like how Max doesn't back down when SAS gets loud. Total respect.
I missed these days. I wish that Stephen A didn’t take it so personally. They debated about everything and you can tell both were passionate about their takes. Now, it’s more of a conversation with Stephen A and his guests more than a debate
Yup fucking dumb asf. Knows one thing n thinks they can lecture everyone. Literally government admitted to the war on drugs shit. Cops and everything know weed is dangerous only due to propaganda and it being illegal. Just like how when alcohol got banned it lead to mafia. Take away the ban on all drugs like Oregon did and let the government tax the shit cus they’re bitches and wouldn’t do it otherwise. But then that’d lead to like 40% or more of the prison population being released or just won’t be filled. People don’t realize how much prisons make and how much of the cases are uncivil and ludicrous.
Max has had plenty of bad takes, but Steven A is the one that’s literally wrong 88% of the time. And his pathetic no it all attitude is ironically hilarious. He’s so dumb😂
@Hop Being a millionaire doesn’t make you smart, and being smart on one topic doesn’t make you smart on other topics. Stephen A is a millionaire primarily cause he’s good at screaming and using big words.
@@skeeterious1 You are asking Molly to do her job when she is just there to sit and be pretty. That's not sexiest; that is what she is there to do. And I think that is why women like Joy Taylor left Undisputed and joined Colin Cowherd because she is more vocal and more opinionated on that show. Plus, unless you are watching Fox; she won't be seen because it's a radio show
Now everybody is realizing that Max was right about almost every take. SAS kept calling him ignorant but really was the ignorant one in the end. What a shame...
for real like who in their right mind says KD is a better offensive player than Lebron lmao Stephen A thats who....Pippen is also a better offensive pLayer than Jordan too lol
He was wrong… Offense involves more than just a jumpshot but KD is so elite at scoring and can score anywhere on the court at 6”11 KD is clearly the better offensive player… Do you understand KD might be the most TALENTED scorer ever? KD is the better offensive player hands down
@@MINK2393 Lebron does more than scoring offensively lol its not close, Lebron also gets more point off better percentages, Kd is the most talented scorer ever yet he's not top 3, Ai better, Kobe better, MJ better
I hate that Max’s career on ESPN was basically destroyed after this . He was a great addition to First Take . SAS’s ego & pride couldn’t let Max cook him on live television
Totally agree with SAS about KD. It wasn't that he went to the Warriors, it's about him dismantling the thunder as competition. Why couldn't Max understand that?
Damn credit to the professionalism to Max held his ground not getting triggered. Stephen A got away with getting that job. Total opposite behavior. T.O you right bro
Max literally started the question saying that he wasn’t just talking about “scoring” when asking about being a better offensive player then SAS proceeded to say “you’re talking about a jump shot” 😂😂😂😂😂
They were both incorrect, but both of their points could’ve been ALOT better... and they were both EXTREMELY blasphemous in trying to reduce the other players’ skill in comparison to the others’... KD can do everything in scoring... Bron is a borderline genius and defensive leader, who CAN shoot... look at his 3pt stats, they’ve been reliable🤷🏾♂️ It’s KD, but not easy easily as even Stephen A tried to dismiss the discussion. They both acted like they were devils for saying such accusations☠️
@@tylergamble8438 I mean, I get what you're saying I do, but LeBron is the greatest driver of the basketball, like Max said he can pass like Magic, he's built like Karl Malone, he can shoot from outside and you've seen him with the fadeaway JS from the midrange. Plus LeBron does average a higher fg% than KD for a career, and they both average exactly 27 ppg even tho LeBron is a pass first guy. Bron also averages more offensive Boards for a career than KD, so Imma go with Bron on this one, seeing as he's superior in almost everything except from the 3pt line where KD averages more.
We didn't appreciate the Max Kellerman era of First Take as much as we do now. Shannon is awesome but so far it's been Sharpe speaks first then Stephen A. Not much debating at this level.
