Stephen A. & Max get heated arguing about Kawhi's Game 7 struggles | First Take 

Toronto was a better fit for Kawhi. He left a humble team and joined a team full of motor mouths.

Its poetic justice Kawhi left Toronto and wanted to go "home" then a kid from Canada (Jamal Murray) sent Kawhi packing from the bubble.

If lebron drops 14 in a game 7. Omg the media will nail this man

“So he wasn’t exhausted last night ?!?” 😂😂😂😂😂😂

At the beginning of the season everybody acted like the Clippers DEFENSE was SO SMOTHERING!! Murray dropped 40 on their heads!!

We really comparing Kobe being up 3-1 vs Suns with Kwame Brown and Smush Parker vs Kawhi with the Stacked Clippers Max Just take your L Bruh

Max: "Who was going to stop Jamal Murray?" Everyone: "Just pick one of the three best defenders in the league. Done."

“How many truths are there?!?” 😂 😂

Raptors may have needed kawhi this postseason, but Kawhi needed the RAPTORS JUST AS MUCH

I wanted to see Rajon Rondo guard Patrick Beverley lol.

He just ruined that man’s whole career.

Stephen A: «The difference is that people are actually interested in what i have to say» 🤣🤣

Kawhi needs a Nurse not a Doctor😂

“How many truths are there?” - Stephen A🤣🤣🤣

"The Clippers are WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE!" - Dennis Green

Stephen A got the sweat towel like he just got on the bench after scoring 60 🤣🤣

SAS sweating like a pastor giving a Sunday sermon! 🤣🤣🤣 5:23

Paul George: We just didn’t spend enough time together.... The Lakers: VLOGGING

These Kobe comparisons are not only ridiculous but sadly blasphemous ffs Max stop it!!

Max looks like hes boutta cry

Stephen A talking real loud for someone who said the Nuggets were over lmao.

HOW MANY TRUTHS ARE THERE 😂😂😂😂 that’s legendary 😂😂😂😂

I lost it at "whoops I made a mistake." LMFAO 😂😂😂

“How many truths are there?” Lmfao😂 clippers def did choke case closed!

Imagine the “best” duo in the NBA combining for 24pts in a game 7 loss while choking away a 3-1 lead.

The next time I lose a bet I'm going to say I have "new evidence" instead of paying 😂😂

"How many truths are there!?" 😂😂😂

Kawhi never had to build chemistry anywhere he played, he went to MADE teams. San Antonio and Raptors was established teams before he got there and still playoff teams when he left.

Kawhi should’ve stayed with Raptors!

Stephen A with that towel like he a pastor had me dead😂😂

"Just because u yell it dont mean what your saying is right" - kevin hart

When Stephen A brought out the towel to blot the sweat 😂😂😂

Max about to go home and break down in the car crying

If max didn’t say whoops in the first vid this argument would’ve never happened for this long 😂😂

None of these “analysts” ever want to admit when they are wrong

0:00 Nobody Stephen a smith: YOU SCARED YOU SCARED

Kobe led a 7th seed Lakers to a 3-1 lead over the 2nd seeded Suns and max wants to compare that to THIS?! Sit down Maxwell

It's amazing how Kawhi and Paul George honored Kobe with a combined 24 points and 8 assists.

This is probably the funniest day of First Take history 😂😂😂😂😂

I knew this episode of first take was gonna be lit 😂 shout out to the clippers for giving everyone such fire content today

Max should just admit he was wrong.

Max still coming with excuses after excuses. A team full of “dogs” and all nba defenders but all of a sudden you have to put two guys on Jamal Murray lol

That Kobe-Kawhi comparison was as absurd as comparing HARDEN'S clutch ability in the playoffs to Michael FREAKIN' Jordan.

“I MEAN DEAYUM DEAYUM!”

Max is like that girlfriend or wife who can’t say the word “sorry” or “I apologize”.

max had the couraged to appear infront of stephen a smith

Stephen A Smith sweating like he's just finished a game 7 series

Max always tryna give himself an out. Last year when he mentioned Kobe everybody told him, you can’t make that grand of a claim based on ONE playoffs. Kawhi hasn’t done enough to even be in the conversation. He tried to cover his opinion by saying he’s only comparing it to what he’s done so far. He was still wrong about that. And his comparisons to Kobe now are STILL wrong! When Kobe blew the 3-1 lead, they lost to a much better Suns team who had just won 54 games with the MVP Steve Nash. The Lakers were not at all expected to win that series because other than Kobe, they had absolutely nobody. Secondly, the game where Kobe went 6-24, he still finished with a GAME high 23 points because he got to the FT line. He also pulled down 15 rebounds because as he put it, “The team that won the rebounding battle won every game in the series.” In other words, BECAUSE his shot wasn’t falling, he found other ways to win. He certainly didn’t let some 23 yr old kid on the Celtics drop 40. He didn’t choke in that game 7. That game was all about defense and NONE of the stars from either team shot over 35%. Also, he was playing against 4 all stars and 4 future hall of famers, while he had 1 All star reserve, Gasol on his team. Metta hit the shot (off Kobe’s assist) that was the dagger. It wasn’t a bail out shot. Give up the comparisons to Kobe, Max. You lost. Let it go.

Someone said Kawhi needs a nurse not a doctor 🤣😂🤣 I'm dead 😂😂

Stephen A was ball riding for the clippers too tho talking bout some “clippers got some DOGS”😭😭🤣

I freakin LOVE those two! they have so much passion for the game.

Max forgetting to say that that happened to Kobe in the nba finals to all time great defensive Celtics team, while getting doubled. While kawhis performance happened in the second round, in single coverage, to the Nuggets defense.

Max keep the same energy

MAX JUST AS PETTY AS SKIP ❗️

Bruh. I literally lost it at 4:13 🤣 Spit my food out and everything 🤣😂☠️🤣

Lemon pepper Lou where are you 😂😂😂

Max really did mess up with the whole Giannis from 1st to 5th. When Lebron messes up in a game Stephen a always stays firm on Lebron being number 1 well when KD ain’t playing. I can’t wait until next season when KD is back, if he gets back to top form next year might be one of the best seasons we’ve seen in recent time because Steph and Clay will be back, KD and Kyrie, Lebron and AD, Kawhi and George will be back I don’t think this will happen again I think this is a one time thing I think this won’t happen again if they are 3-1 up again unless they are playing an even better team. Giannis we have no clue where he’ll be next year. So it’s gonna be a good season next year.

Stephen A even has a fkn towel, my man is HEATED

waiting for this all-day

😂😂😂Max really tried playing the he was tired agruement

This is what I wanted for so long and Stephen A never disappoints

Max is a smart guy ngl he was wrong and explained himself

Max and Stephen absolutely killed this segment. Great stuff

Zero points in a close out game 7 from the man max claimed to be a better closer than Kobe smh

Max “ BETTER THAN ANYONE WHO EVER LIVED” Kellerman

I swear I couldn’t wait for this episode when I was watching the game last night

This two are the only reason I subscribed and like ESPN

Max should’ve called in sick today 😂😂

Stephen a talking like He didnt miss predictions in 6 straight NBA finals

“I was right at that time” lmao what ?? 😂😂

Bruh if SAS want to revoke Max’s basketball card then Max should revoke SAS card for boxing and MMA.

STEPHEN A SAID CLIPS WOULD WIN THE CHIP HE SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AS WELL

Max, Kobe is waaayyy more clutch than Kawhi. Kobe didn't let that happen.

Kobe made them chips look easier than they really are!!

nobody: stephen a smith: "kawhi linnid"

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Max looks like a fool right now 🤣🤣🤣

Stephen had me crying when he said thats all you had to say about that lmaoo

I love how the video starts with Stephen shouting "You scared!"...

Watching Playoff P shoot bricks off the side of the backboard in the 4th quarter of a game 7 was actually pretty sad. That’s when I knew the choke job was in

Fun fact: Players who won regular season and “bubble” awards this season either didn’t make the playoffs or got bounced out already

The clippers had no chemistry... when one player was on the other player was injured... but I do blame kawhi and pandemic p for the loss... they were trash.

AWWW MAN THIS WAS THE BEST EPISODE OF FIRST TAKE I HAVE EVER SEEN! LMAO

I fell asleep just so I can wake up to this 😭🙏🏾🙏🏾

Max: logic Stephen A: THE ABSOLUTE BLASPHEMY LEAVING YOUR FACEHOLE RIGHT NOW

"2nd round dynasty 🤣" Pat Bev

Ayooo I'm warming up for this again if the Clippers go down against the Mavs 🤣🤣💯

Max “when you needed him most” Kellerman

When you got a two outta three chance to get the answer right (stay in Toronto or go to the lakers) and you still get the question wrong 😂

From now on “heated” only gets to be used when Stephen A sweats that much.

6:54 I thought a bee flew by my ear

I love how they go @ each other..LMAO!!

I'm loving these arguments especially when Stephen A raises his voice😂 Max doesn't have a chance

Max being cooked live on National television 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was waiting for whole night for this to happen!! And i love it. Eat it max

Stephen A saying this is the greatest choke in NBA history must’ve never seen 2011 NBA FINALS

Max: "You been talking for 5 straight mins" SAS: "Difference is people are actually interested in what I have to say" lol

Max lookin’ like he gonna cry! 😹

Max new evidence is when his picks lose.😂🙄🤔Max that's everyone's evidence. Max I Spotted New Evidence KellerGetChoManz🙄😂🤦🏾‍♂️👉🏾

“At the time” 😂😂

Been waiting on this 😂😂🤣🤣
