He is analytics driven and people hate seeing the evidence that goes against they eye test opinion.

I can’t take anything he says serious. People that are so biased and unreasonable when talking ball upset me. But then I remember mostly likely he does it for views.

Tbh I think Cris Carter is getting tired of him. I watched their little spat the other day about LeBron in NY and Cris was basically intentionally trolling him and not subtly making fun of his obsession with LeBron.

Personally, I liked when he was featured on shows where he would engage in a debate. His current show doesn't really do that, he just says his opinion then the woman awkwardly massages his ego

I do enjoy his takes on most things not basketball related though. Stopped taking his basketball opinions seriously when last season he showed his arguments are based almost entirely on emotion and he can't be objective. As someone said, a worse Skip Bayless

He actually brings facts to support his opinions unlike Skip but like him is hellbent on taking an extreme take on a polarizing player and only brings facts that support his opinion and conveniently ignores counterpoints a lot of the time.

I have a friend though who worked for a major sports show who always had writers and radio hosts on as guests. He met Wright years ago before he was popular and said he was the biggest a** he ever met and extremely arrogant and condescending.

Biggest LeBron homer I ever seen...but he brings analytics to the table to back up his points.

There is no reason as to why LeBron only has 4 MVPs when he has been the best player on planet earth for arguably a decade.

(I have Kobe as best from 06-09 then LeBron takes over, not here to debate this either)
