We’re Out of Patience For the Phoenix Suns & The Mavs Are Thoroughly In the Mix | with Tim Legler 

We have a new pod. It's with LeBron James. Full ep drops tomorrow so subscribe here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yg0OSov5spE.html

Legler is lowkey the best sports talking head. He’s knowledgeable and completely unbiased. Even when he critics a team it doesn’t seem like a personal attack like most analyst do

Finally found reporters that I like. They are not about day to day sensationalism

I've been a Suns fan for 3 decades. We've made the Finals 3 times and made the Western Conference Finals 10 times as a franchise. We want a championship. We had a truly worthless owner for 20 years literally selling draft picks for cash. This season more than any other has been a disappointment. I just don't even know what to say.

The best pod episodes are when JJ and Legs are breaking it down. i wouldn’t be mad if Legs was the only analyst on the pod for the rest of the season

8:35 “He’s got 4 more than I do in that same span” Leg funny but real asf

Tim Legler is the analyst goat

love the jaylen brown appreciation! he’s been an absolute beast lately, one thing you guys didn’t really mention was his ball handling. It has been far better this season than previous seasons. It is partially because of his increase in strength but his dribbling ability has been notably better and has helped him stop errors that would’ve created turnovers in years past.

It was funny watching the Suns and Bucks game yesterday, there was a moment in the 1st half where Brook Lopez caught a pass for an open shot on the peremiter and the announcer goes, "Brook Lopez is wide open, because...of course he is." Lol! The Suns defense was embarrassed.

Luka did not play against OKC recently don’t forget. Mavs are 4-2 against the top 4 of the west when Luka and Kyrie both play.

Man as a suns fan, I can’t defend them anymore. Why they decide not to defend the three after getting torched by the Celtics (25/50) is beyond me.

Tim is back!!

Appreciate yall showing the love to JB. He’s really blossomed into his own this year. He’s been so good defensively.

Luka ans Kyrie were the definition of 1-2 punch . Luka with the HUGE game tying 3 . Kyrie with the CRAZY bussee beater.

Love that JB is getting his flowers from the national media. This has been his best season by far. People forget that he had a fantastic playoffs until the Heat series where he completely fell apart, injury aside.

Don’t ever stop doing this segment. The basketball alpha in here is what talk shows about sports should have. Zero narrative, no filler and great 2 man dynamic duo energy. Love your work JJ and Legz 🧨

Beeing a Mavs fan is not easy....what a rollercoster of a season this has been so far...but i belive!

Bradley Beals’s greatest highlight was when he yelled at those kids telling them they are not good enough for the nba…

CP3 provided way more for this team than people realized

My favorite segment on the channel

Love this breakdowns from y’all

Legs is the best sports analist and I love to hear him talk basketball the man knows his stuff

I’ve been waiting for the next upload with Legs, he’s my favorite basketball analyst that JJ brings on! 👌🏽

When I see Legs & Redick - it's an automatic click. Yall are the Nolan & Villenueve of sports talk.

Thank you JJ great as always!

Giving up 140 points to Milwaukee with no Giannis is just ludicrous. It highlights one of Phoenix’s many problems this year which is lack of bigs. Nurkic, Eubanks and Bol Bol just aren’t good enough. Worst of all, they have so much money invested in their Big Three that they don’t have the cap space to do anything about it moving forward.

Legler's analysis is spot on as per usual.

Thank you for rant, they deserves that. Fans are devistated by this team all season.

Legs always with the on point analysis

Tim Legler is a legend! Never change, Tim!

That buddy hield finishing stat is super intriguing

Great show.

Not really a bron fan but still excited for ya'lls new podcast

Beal n Booker throws the ball away like kids literally

Best nba podcast

KD gonna request a trade to Denver after the season

How did JJ get through an entire segment on Boston without mentioning Derrick White???

Tim got me wanting to lace up for the Suns

Legler is a gem. More legs sounds great.

If you're a fan if Legler, i highly recommend All NBA podcast - he is featured at least 2-3 times per week. Nice to see him back.

Top tier episode

Glad to have Legs back, no offense to TDS!

Right after the book ep too lmao

Got my leg back on this jawn let’s gooo

Idk if y'all have talked about before but I'd love to see your thoughts on the Knicks defense lately especially going 3-0 so far on their West Coast road trip.

This is what we call great criticism without trying to make a clickbait comment !

Can't say I follow the Suns that often but if its a one night off that's on the players. If it's a pattern then that's on the coaching..

Fwiw the Bucks game was an away game at 11am central. That’s not an excuse for their poor defense, but might’ve had something to do with it.

Love the good cop bad cop lol ..these to together might be the best 2

Kyrie mentioned in his interview that he was fine with that shot, the only thing he wanted differently was to get closer to the basket.

leggler speaks it straight up. best in the game.

The Suns need to play bigger lineups and stagger Booker and Beal’s minutes

I see Tim I click no questions asked…

Lol it's really the confidence Ky had on that hook shot😂

Jaylen Brown is a got damn DAWG! Anyone who thinks otherwise can keep it pushing

Glad to see Legler again, The Dunker Spot bore me to death

They actually did go on a 11-0 run and got it down to six.

Suns Lifer here as well 👋🏽 and yeah- this ‘23-24 season is making the personal record books along with ‘22 (a year where we were LEGIT title contenders before that epic playoff collapse) as Most Disappointing Season. For me, it’s the expectations coupled with the actual play and effort. ‘21 was special because of our young guys all ascending at the right time, the narrative context was different. But this year’s just a mess. We are a month out of the Play-In/Playoffs. 8th place, below .500 against teams with winning records- with the toughest SOS post-ASB. The body language has been deferential at best with the hydra of Book- Beal- KD often times look unwilling to assert themselves. Too many ISOs, too few Spain-style P/R or cutting with a sense of pace or intention. the KD ISOs to end shotclocks have been abysmal and Booker hasn’t looked himself after starting the season as an MVP candidate, then running into a regretable amount of lower body inuries. When the Suns traded CP3 and Shamet for Beal and Goodwin- it was a no-brainer, and I still believe that was the right call as those players do not have the same level of impact as Beal. But I also don’t believe Vogel is the guy to coach this team. His defensive schemes are good- Nurk has bought in greatly and has been a season highlight along with Grayson Allen, but offensively, guys have very little direction. Book isn’t using his natural scorer’s gravity to make plays. It’s all befuddling and maddening and makes me wanna watch the D’backs more seriously next week as a sports salve against this poor excuse for a season where we’re barely above .500 despite boasting two potential top ten guys who don’t have it this year.

Mavz needs those guys to play with confidence Lukai will ball out but the others need to be competitive if they do Mavz going to have a great run this season 🏆

The problem with the Suns apart from defense (Greyson out of the starters plays consistently defense) is they are not moving the ball. For kD and Book the pass is the last resort. So many times they go one on 2 and force a very difficult shot when G Allen has a clean look from 3

Life long Suns fan and this team is easily the most frustrating team I’ve experienced. Even that decade playoff drought we at least knew we sucked. The KD trade doesn’t look like it’s going to end well for us 😤

3 great mid range shooters can win, but they won't so it consistently depending on mid range shots which are the lowest points per shot spot on the floor to score from. Phoenix thought they knew better than everyone else, but Ishba is still fighting with Jokic for the ball from last years playoffs.

love when legler and jj have discussions

Kyrie’s shot was a ball push lol. Reminded me of a dart throw more than a basketball shot. That one hurt as a Denver fan.

Finally some real analysis with JJ and Legs!!!! I’m tired of the dunker spot

down wit the blacktop suns!!

8:47 he’s got 4 more than I do💀💀💀

That Kyrie shot was a long layup. He flicked that with his wrist like shooting a layup.

as a mavs fan the title is so great

The issue is the following... you cannot put three small guys together (Allen, Beal and Booker). They cannot defend properly the paint and they are not getting the rebounds. You need 2 of our top scorers in the game (KD/Beal, Booker/Beal, KD/Allen) and have 3 big guys to defend and grab the rebounds. If you put all 4 top scorers without rotating them, you will burn them. So in the 4th quarter they will implode because they are tired. Coach Vogel has to trust in their other guys to defend and rotate the 4 top scorers all the time to avoid this lack of size, defense and rebounds.

The only thing I can think is the defensive game plan included Gianni's and he was a last minute dnp. Still not a excuse

So often we are seeing these types of games from players. So many low energy games or low energy until the second half.

As a Suns fan all I can think is “what the Buck!?”

Can’t believe none of yall drafted anything in Salt Lake. They have some FIRE food in SLC. Tekashi sushi bar, Caputos, Tea Rose Thai Diner, La Caille.

The clutch shot was Lukas 3

Never saw how giving up their depth, youth, and defensive talent made sense for 3 ball dominant players on the backside of the curve. Booker, Durant, and Beal is similar to Durant, Kyrie, and Harden in Brooklyn

you'd expect Nurkic to learn from his mistake from the Celtics game and concede to defending Bobby Portis at the 3pt line -- atleast give some effort. but I really do think this is a roster issue. dude is has done just about everything the Suns have asked of him. can't expect him to be a quality parameter defender at his size. . . Not sure what more can be said about the offense. Rarely do we see all three of them having it going at the same time -- it's usually small spurts. When they're in trouble it seems like they either force a tough look or seek out a 3 from Allen or O'Neale. not what you'd expect from a super team. Vogel's small ball line-up worked in the second half, but ended with Booker and Durant gassed.

Denver and Boston have one thing in common and that is homegrown talent. Tatum and Brown. Jokic and Murray. These two teams will be the next Golden State which also have homegrown talents. OKC and San Antonio (Wemby) will be the future but superstars jumping ships don’t work anymore. It’s all about developing your draft picks.

As a Suns fan, I don't have any issues with anything Ishbia tried, I didn't think it would completely work and it hasn't but I'd rather have an owner swing for the fences than have someone like Sarver. Great offense, the defense just isn't there and it won't be there. I think the Suns can give any team a tough playoff series, I think they're one of those teams you want to play on the way to the Finals to toughen you up and make you work to get you ready for a Finals run, but in the end there are a few teams better all around. If we had kept Johnson, Bridges, and Paul we wouldn't be any closer to a title and when you have a Booker you don't want to go into full rebuild so took a swing, so far it's been a miss and that's just how it goes. Disappointing as a Suns fan but this is what it's like being a Suns fan, having good teams that just aren't quite good enough. I'll take this over the Sarver years where we were just bad and stayed bad. You don't win a title either way but at least we have a team that can compete every night and know we have an owner that legitimately wants to win.

The motion his hand did is a “cut shot” in sand volleyball. left hand cut shot 20:45

Tim is the goat

FIRE VOGEL

Just got to the video and haven’t started it, but I’m presuming there is no actual significant Sacramento Kings talk? The team ahead of both the Suns and the Mavericks with the current double double and triple double leader and two all star snubs.

Awesome stuff best basketball content on YT Legs and JJ rapping. My two cents… the mavericks are better in a 7 game series than any team but Denver in the west and they aren’t even safe…

This Suns team is Durant/Irving/Harden Nets 2.0. That team had the same issues from the injuries to “standing around”. It doesn’t say good things that Durant is the common factor, but I think it’s more than that.

Legler looks like Noodles from The Offspring

I think everyone who watches the Suns knows their deficiencies but it's always funny to watch the strong reactions KD's teams get from analysts. KD played 8 regular season games last year with PHX and they ripped them when they lost to the Nuggets. Now this year. But those dangerous teams fighting for a chance to be in the play-in...watch out for them 😂 But for the Suns, they need players willing to do the dirty work. If they want to start Beal, Book and KD then put an athletic PF out there to go along with Nurkic. They need a pg to run the 2nd unit and their version of a Herb Jones/Trey Murphy combo. Infuse youth and athleticism with the core group.

It was a great shot! At a great time… leggs sounds like it won the Championship. It was a great shot in a season of great shots. Slow your roll…

The Suns were really bad yesterday, I agree. I'm not sure Legler watched the whole game though. He says he never saw the Suns go on a run. They certainly did. They were down by at least 22 and brought it back to within 6 or 7 I believe and then let it get away again.

But people called ME crazy when I said that the Suns might not even make it out the first round this year 😂 I saw the makeup for this Suns team this year (and I specifically payed attention to their lack of a true PG/facilitator) and just knew it was just a team with 3 really good SCORERS, but not necessarily three championship players

Good job Legler

Everything Legs said about the Suns could be applied to how the clippers played vs the Hawks last night. So infuriating as a fan

They need A Rondo Type PG.

FRANK VOGEL A BUBBLE CHAMP BRO SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN HIRED…

Great conversation. Too many fcking ads tho!

Suns "worst offense IN THE LEAGUE in the 4th quarter" actually broke my brain. How is that possible? Surely that should be basically their biggest strength.

Word of the day: Grotesque😂😎

You can't judge a team on their worst or best day but in the average

They got a lot of talent, no doubt. There's no on court leadership just guys who want their buckets and will overlook defense.

The bucks and suns game was close and the suns did clamp up, the bucks just had a hot hand throughout the game. Suns need to clamp up on their perimeter defense. In every loss it’s been because of TO or the inability to close out on 3’s very fixable by the time the playoffs roll around. Gotta get the defense and chemistry on a string
