I love Wildes. I always hope that other viewers understand how brilliant he is. Whilst Nick & Broussard have the classic binary arguments where they put one guy/team/coach up against another and try to convince each other that their reasons are superior to the other's, Wildes just floats around the segment like a happy little bumblebee laughing along as he offers his unique, oddly sincere, and often poetic thoughts providing perspective in unexpected and always amusing ways. What Nick & Broussard do they do as well as anybody, but ultimately there are dozens of Debate Minded Sports Commentators out there. Wildes however is totally unique, nobody else can do what Wildes does the way he does it, he's 1 of 1.

Dear Wildes, Love the show. ...You're welcome. Last week, you placed all the dunk-contest viewers on the BUD list for complaining too much. My wife and I were motivated to amend our outloook. After a mini darkness retreat, we emerged with renewed sense of vim, vigor and vodka hangover. If you dont know what the word "vim" means, just ask Broussard. Anyway, we did enjoy the dunk contest , so thank you. However, on Monday, we noticed that you chose to whine and complain a lot about the All- Star game. This made me wonder if there will ever be a "BUD list app" where we can notify friends, family and "TV SHOW-Hypocrites" as to their presence on our personalized BUD lists. We would be "Tickled Pink" if this became a reality soon. And I don't mean "Jordan Love" soon. Sincerely EVE and STEVE

[@bennwardhaugh3013]

That's not true at all, I'm a LBJ fan and his 2011 meltdown is 110% on him. The thing that people want is there to be consistency, considering whenever any team LBJ is on loses a single game there's always a large contingent of media that'll automatically put all the blame on his shoulders no matter what his numbers are or the efficiency at which he gets them. It is a team sport after all and long gone are the days where the best player on the court can beat the better overall team (and he even bucked that trend when coming back from 3-1 down in the finals). You just have to look at Skip to see a microcosm of what I'm talking about.

[@JimBrave-vi9ji]

I think James is the first to try and be good at 38. Malone and Kareem were good at that age aswell. Also a past his prime Jordan at age 38 had the Wizards in the Playoffs and was 4th in the NBA in scoring until he got injures. (the league was much rougher then). Still Jordan was 4th in the NBA in scoring at 25 ppg 6 rebounds 4 assists 2 steals until the injury. Only like 4 or 5 players tried to be good or Very good at that age.

You can't have greatness without expectations..they go hand in hand. It's a different time, MJ was going for ownership, the Wizards were not the Lakers. There was no AD. Unfair..thats a stretch. That's why Bron is great, but people think being great means above criticism, and that's a big no.

[@ubadman1]

@Will NorthAmericanGroup yall always move goalposts. Jordan was gett8ng destroyed in a weaK east. As nick showed LeBron has played more ganes than curry or kawhii yet those teams can function without them. Why is it on LeBron in year 20 to be out there every game and every minute? These are goat expectations becuae enough one else is held to these standards.

This is the easiest era to score in... so averaging 30ppg ain't that impressive

[@edgybravo4287]

​@@ubadman1 move the goal post like how you Bron fans did when Bron won 3 and somehow that was better than 6? Talk about moving the goal post you ain't got that same argument that there was 8 teams in the league that is used against Bill Russell. Why LeBron only got 4 of he's sooooo good? Steph is gonna end up winning more than him playing in the same era you realize that correct?

LeBron James has went to more NBA Finals than Pat Beverley made the playoffs

[@diegochavez679]

Because he played in a trash conference Dirk and Duncan destroyed him Kobe would too if he played in the west hed never make the finals unless he teamed up with 3 other hall of famers he's the biggest fraud of all time "the chosen one " means Nike signed hima and would do anything in their power to make sure they get a return on their investment teaming him up and always pushing the narrative that he needs more help when he's losing putting up empty stats

@@diegochavez679 Exactly. LeBron is in the West now and and hasn't been in the playoffs in the past 3 or 4 years with a few stars on the roster. HUHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[@LargeDude2023]

The fact that lebron (at age 38) is scoring more and putting up better numbers these last 2 years than when he was younger and in his Prime and Peak... says all you need to know about how ridiculously EASY it is to put up stats in this NO DEFENSE league.

[@jayrich6965]

Exactly all the 40 point games by avg players the reason is 7 players currently avg over 30 the reason all the teams are avg about 110 points a game now why the all star game was foolish and not really that far from how the normal game is being played teams shot more threes than twos now players get 3 on 1 fast breaks and pull up for 3 instead of making easy layups
