  • @engie229

  • @hmrhuang
    As a Canadian, I hope SGA makes Sharp eat his words 100X over!
  • @shipwreck8847
    Lakers are 3-1 vs OKC this season. But 0-4 against Nuggets. Meanwhile OKC is 3-1 vs Nuggets but 1-3 against Lakers. It's all about the matchups not the records.
  • what's wrong with unc today bro? "how are you 10 seeds if you are good" that's how good west is this year..this is the best west in probably 20 years.
  • @melvinguz11
    Don’t interrupt me molly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
  • @ZandeKongo
    I get what Shannon is saying. OKC are not the weakest, but nobody fears them.
  • @XPXhumble
    whoever came up with the play-in tournament needs a raise
  • @tigerhoods7927
    lol they really should only have Tim legler talking basketball
  • @KingKCA
    How can you say they’re a week number 1 seed? Young teams always break through at some point to prove how good they are. It’s the only way to prove it.

    "The Lakers are the strongest number 10 seed" - Shanon Sharpe
  • Unc is trippin'. Thunder are 3-1 vs the Nuggets & Mavs, 2-1 against the Clippers, & 2-2 vs the Timberwolves. Yes, 1-3 vs the Lakers doesn't look good, but they were not blown out in any game. This OKC Thunder team absolutely earned the #1 seed in the Western Conference, DESPITE them not having any experience.
  • @Tehui1974
    OKC is not the weakest #1 seed in Western Conference history, they're simply the youngest and most inexperienced #1 seed.
  • @Speak317
    Shannon is the biggest rider of all time. Really anybody to be #1 in the West is in no way overrated
  • @abuhrman989
    Shannon always talks about "being a favorite" like that decides who would win. Being a favorite means nothing once the playoffs starts. It's about who's hot and who's not, who plays as a team and who plays as individuals. OKC is exactly how you want your team to play and get along together. Their chemistry is the best in the NBA
