Jalen's point is simple. Just report the facts based on what you see. But to call someone out their name is totally unprofessional.

[@joegiants4219]

And it’s wrong, if you are making millions of dollars the reports have fair game to give you names as long as it’s accurate and doesn’t involve their outside life

[@Jason-id3yp]

@@joegiants4219 How is it professional to call someone a name that isn't their given name? It is childish and pathetic. You can say that they aren't performing as well as they can but there are other factors that you have to consider. I don't care how much someone makes, it doesn't give you the right to make call them a name that you think is appropriate. It's crazy that people actually think name calling is ok. If we were in middle school and immature, I would agree with you but I assume most of us are adults. You can criticize someone without calling them a name, or maybe they lack the ability to keep it professional. Now, if a player is acting like a child, you can say they are acting like a child without calling them a child. It's not a difficult thing to understand or do.

[@joegiants4219]

Jason McClellan so how come people are advocating so much for name calling of athletes but it’s ok for Trump to name call his opponents and vice versa. You should be just offended by that but you aren’t

[@Jason-id3yp]

[@mlelo7]

“What’s right isn’t always popular. What’s popular isn’t always right.” - Howard Cosell

[@Kdawg24NCAA]

this is the realest take ive ever seen. i wish first take/undisputed would talk about this topic more often

[@KCKickReviews]

I side with Jalen overall in this matter. When it comes to name calling and things of the sort, it's unnecessary and unprofessional. Unfortunately what has happened is that in this 24/7-365 news cycle the story extends much further than between the lines of play. Skip stated that he decided to do studio because he felt his objectivity was being compromised by being ingratiated with the players. And that's fine. But you can't remove yourself from the players and then psychoanalyze them and judge their character on a daily basis as Skip does. And I like Skip, he's cool with me, but that's the truth. I have more respect for Stephen A because he at least is around a lot of the players he talks about on a more personal level. But what I never liked and was highlighted in this entire episode was the double standard that there is with athletes and media and fans. Anybody who has dedicated their life to any craft should have the accepted right to respond to any criticism they receive if they don't agree. At the least respond. But when an athlete responds the public (media/fans) counter with "You should be above that" "This is beneath you". Why? We're all people. Because a person makes money they don't have the right to respond without criticism? I don't get it. And I know some people may not care, but I thought Skip was ridiculously disrespectful to Chris Bosh. To have the audacity to say "I'll continue to call you Bosh Spice until you play up to your potential" had me dumbfounded. Utter disrespect. He came on the show, respectfully told him how it was disrespectful and offensive yet Skip pretty much "Fuck you, prove me wrong". IMO and the opinion of many, comparing a man to a woman, which Skip is doing when he says that, his a high offense amongst men. And in a professional realm, it's unacceptable because it puts Bosh in a lose/lose situation. It's not like Bosh can take care of him like they're on the streets. And Skip's smugness like he's some master or overseer above human decency in the matter was appalling. I thought we live in a world when something is offensive to someone and their family we discontinue to do that. But Skip in my opinion had that white supremacy come out with how he spoke to Bosh. "Listen Boy, I'ma call you what I want until I see fit to stop. F*** your feelings. I'll be the judge". But anyways, save the disrespect for the barbershop and around the way. That's not necessary for ESPN or any major sports outlet. If a player isn't playing up to their potential, that's an indictment on the AS WELL as the scouts and Front Offices that evaluated and paid these guys. Don't get mad when athletes get upset but the minute someone criticizes anything a media person does they get super defensive.

[@simoncampusano1015]

[@Mishad8]

But all players trash talk on the court. So basically it's ok for players to talk trash and stuff and it not get blown up. But not journalist ? Jalen did say that he was a trash talker, and I'm guessing that was for the 10 years or so he played in the league. I don't see the difference.

They cross the line and epitomize what you shouldn't do on a global spectrum, which encourages the way people treat each other today. Watching Skip and Stephen A. Make me not want to pursue an athletic career at a professional level. Knowing that no matter what I do and what I prove they'll open up hate among all medias. Can't stand what they're saying, hypocritical and BLASPHEMY.

[@Solomonreborn]

I completely agree. It's one thing to analyze , however what is going on now is straight bullying. The irony you can't say the F word or the N word but you can basically call somebody "soft" "weak" or "stink" without repercussions.If I don't like somebody's sexual practices that they choose to advertise , I'm homophobic and discriminatory, however if someone doesn't like the way an athlete plays, it' fair game.

Jalen IS right. It used to be if you cant do it better yourself, then dont criticize. It is not quite this way now. Nevertheless, analysts and show hosts should be allowed to matter-of-factly dissect an athlete's skills, but the moment they make it personal with name-calling and trash-talking, then they have crossed the line.

[@sha9infinite450]

indeed. media as stars is how it is now days. example, I liked shows like the Tim mccarver show, where it was enjoyable without all the extra. news is like that with the hannitys and bill O'Reillys, trying to be "louder" than the next.

[@Solomonreborn]

This is an excellent point. There is no respect for time and effort even the "worst" player on a team has put in to get to the pros. It's disrespectful and I don't like it.

Some of the personalities in all forms of media are trying to be like the celebrities that they cover, yet want to be respected as serious journalists.

[@EbonySeraphim]

Jalen’s point isn’t what everyone else on the show sloppily interpreted it to be. He is making too fine of a distinction that the others can’t make. The use of qualifying negative names (“name callling”) is beyond their professional. A person can have an epically terrible game, but to call them “trash” in a general sense is a a problem. It’s a hair away from saying “they played like trash” but the Skips and Stepehen As run their mouths so loudly and constantly they don’t ever see it. Calling the player trash in a general sense requires far more than the observations they just made, and beyond that it’s them just letting their lips flop

[@biloxielizabeth6291]

From the time Stephen A started talking on this segment (pt5 of 5) up to the 335 mark, is probably some of the best talking he's EVER done. It wasn't rehearsed or thought about a couple of hours or days before the broadcast. This was said right off the top of his head, and quite frankly, it was not only brilliant, but 100% spot on. One of the points I agree with most is, in a discussion with an analyst who's never played and an athlete turned analyst, especially an athlete that's relatively new, I'm going to trust the analyst knowing there's no bias involved.

you see, its business. stephen a was correct, his audience is the public. if they didnt have this argument. u think us as the audience would pay so much attention to this????? its all marketing. when ur playing decent. nobody cares, but when u play like a scrub. they call u out. nicknames are part of the marketing. sadly, the public likes it!!!!!!!dont u see Jay was talking the twitter world is paying attention???

Keep holding your own Jalen don't let them over talk you.

[@mrgeeda5432]

Stephen A is dramatic, emotional, disrespectful and hypocritical on many levels

[@jtrent4942]

So all of this is because Jalen asked Skip about his high school stats and skip claims it's a lie and say Jalen crossed the line?
