Yet the guy I find most enjoyable doesn’t always have a strong opinion, Dan Patrick.

I don’t know who he is but he’s not wrong about every year people think that’s the year Lebron goes down in the east. 2015 was the most amusing with the Hawks.

Because he actually knows how to be entertaining.

Combine him and skip bayless and you get someone who is neutral on Lebron.

One of the most punchable face on TV

Well, I think Lebron is the #2 all time player, but I don't think he has any chance of getting #1.

But anyone trying to convince themselves that Lebron has face major competition out East is delusional. Yes, he played some pretty good teams, Indiana back in the day for one with the Heat. But it's been nothing compared to out West. Of course, Lebron's teams have overcome the winner of the Western conference 3 times....so it's logical to deduce those Heat teams probably would have come out of the West in those years as well. That's up in the air though I guess.

Lebron is my favorite player ever.

But this guy takes it too far. When he is incorrect or looks bad on something, He feels the need to bring something up or switch up the argument to make Bron or his argument look good in it so he feels like he never loses a debate and looks like a genius. Those are usually the worst people to debate with.

He's not charismatic at all. He's extremely unlikable.

So was David Koresh.

Last year he predicted the cavs in 5 but doesn't mention he was wrong. This year he said every team in the NFC has a better chance to win super bowl than the eagles. He also overreacts after every game. Here are some gems from this year's sport season:

I hate Nick Wrong. He cherry picks when to come criticize Kyrie and the Celts at every bad game, but he's conveniently watching some other sport and can't tweet in as usual whenever the Celts were doing well. Plus his blatant LeBron ball licking is so crazed that even his co hosts can't stand it.

I think it's kind of silly to get all worked up about how someone on television has opinions that you disagree with.

I’m surprised people still pay attention to this big nosed idiot :lol:

Have no problems with the guy. Like Chris Carter alot though. Pretty much speaks the truth and has good football analysts.

Just one night, Lebron, just one night you will never forget...

I watch / listen to the show everyday, the guy obviously fishes for hot takes, but for some reason, I cannot help but to enjoy watching it. His love for Lebron is pretty nauseating.

Ik but the issue with that is that people were predicting the Celtics or Raptors to make it BEFORE the trade deadline with that trash cavs team. Now a lot of opinions have flipped.

He also acts like there's no argument to take the Raptors or Celtics over them because of what he saw today lmao. One game in his eyes cancels the whole season out. If the cavs got blown out today he wouldn't say anything

When are people gonna realize this is a make/miss league....the Cavs scored 127 pts in IT's 1st game...yesterday Clarkson, Hood and JR were 19-29 on FGs...good luck w that consistent shooting

For some reason, I was expecting this thread to be about Nick Young.

Most espn analysts don't admit when they were wrong, it's nothing unusual.

Probably because he gets paid quite a bit for being wrong?

I assume people would get annoyed for a lawyer losing case after case yet still gets paid?

He's a smart guy who saw how much money Skip Bayless was making with the anti-LeBron schtick, and decided to flip it and be a pro-LeBron stan.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I think I'd rather have a conversation with Skip than Wright. Both guys are terrible but Skip feels more "real" than Wright imo.
