He meant in terms of educating them about himself. If you believe you're a leader, educate the masses as to why they should believe you're a leader rather than just getting upset because people question your leadership. Tell them hey I do xyz. This that and the other. The default for a player in the NBA isn't that he's a leader until proven otherwise. You have to PROVE your leadership. KD hasn't proven it. We're not taking away from him. We're just not giving him praise that he hasn't earned. He's earned all the praise about being a great player. All time scorer. One of the best players of all time. And he's given that respect and credit all the time. He simply hasn't earned the right to be called a top tier leader.

SAS killed it at the end. Often JJ is on point in calling out bs. Which is important. And he called what he THOUGHT was bs this time as well. Which is good. But SAS was totally correct. We judge what we see, and KD's leadership didn't reach the level of LeBron, Magic, or Curry. He COULDN'T galvanize his players like the top tier leaders could. Leading by example is important which KD does in terms of putting in work, but that's only one component of it. All the other great leaders spared no effort in their work. But they were able to galvanize their players on TOP of that. KD doesn't get more respect as a leader because he hasn't EARNED that respect. As they say, respect is earned. We're not taking anything away from KD. But you need proof to ADD to someone's resume, and KD didn't provide that proof.

That's similar to steph not kd. KD cant be compared to steph and tim duncan, find someone else to make your point because its not valid. Honestly the coach is the leader. But when you play as the best player, for the same team (long time), people consider the team yours like the face of the team, they may see you that way and fall in line. Of course I'm only speaking to players with the personality as kd "lead by example" (Lebron is different). We keep confusing best player as leaders. There should be a distinction. I don't believe kawi has ever been a leader of the team. I actually see pg as the leader, not kawi (even though kawi's the best player literally leading them to victory). Hope I made since....

Mad Dog is just missing sipping a cup of tea in this scene.

Jj was apologizing for K.d Lack of leadership. Kd said himself when got to GOLDEN STATE " He just wants to hoop" so he joined team where he didn't have to lead. AND AT BROOKLYN it didn't work out, whole thing collapsed. Kyrie said they don't need coach, KD co-signed.

Before he went to Golden State, they were winning and When he left the Golden States they Still WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A Leader doesn't go for what makes him happy. He prioritizes what makes his team happy, Durant is pursuing happiness at the expenses of his teammates? He's no leader! He's an amazing player though! Right now is the time for him to prove that he a leader. He's the experienced player on a young team... Lead them to victory and we'll open the debate of you being a leader! LEbron left the cavs, went to Miami, won titles, came back to the cavs, won a title the went to the Lakers, won a title... That's a Leader but not like the REAL LEADERS JORDAN (evemn tho I think LBJ > Jordan) and Curry who stayed on their Team to win titles!!!

As soon as I read the Forst sentence in your comment I was digging around to see where you mention Curry. And sure enough, it’s there.

I mever seen Mad dog this entertained. His silence said alot lol. Great take

This was a great segment. Not overly dramatic and great dialogue

Stephen A and JJ really had a very tense exchange that got personal.

JJ should stop questioning his colleague credential just because hes a former player and is "liked" more by current players. In his view, ANYTHING that players say is the ultimate truth and whoever DARE to question that or challenge their view is dumb and uneducated about the NBA because they never play it at a high level.

He didn't question his credentials, he just asked questions . Is it kd job to educate steven a. The problem is they don't talk to players they don't like, they just create narratives

JJ is too quick to make it personal about reporters vs players and ofcourse SAS is going to win that argument

@johnpaulkerrigan7975 i disagree ..old man and a 3 podcast, he critiques players and games on a weekly basis. What are you saying no to? That he doesn't know basketball more than SAS Smith or that a man saying something about winning an argument, not childish?

Stephen a is right, jj would defend a player no matter what they did

That just isn't true. He didn't defend Zion. JJ tells it how it is on a lot of players. Zion went to Duke and was a teammate for a short time. So, it should have been harder to be so strict on him. JJ does take the player side a majority of the time but as a former player, their mindsets are more similar than the mindset of a pure media member like Mad Dog or Steven A.

"Can I respond?" (SAS). Of course you can, it's your show"(JJ Redick). 😂😂😂

Stephen A is not at all interested in having a serious conversation that educates people about the game. His entire livelihood is dependent on the "men yelling at each other about sports" genre. There is a market for serious conversations about the complexities of the game with the best players in the league (which is why they all have podcasts now which we all listen to) but Stephen A is utterly surplus to that conversation.

Both great arguments, this was a good one.

I'm so sick of JJ acting like the authority on everything just because he was a mid player in the league.

He wasn’t mid but ok… he averaged 28 at duke average 17+ for years a 17 year career one of the best three point shooters you don’t know basketball

That was a great discussion. I hope the respect is there between them all (JJ and SAS in particular) because I'd like to see other interesting subjects get thrashed out between them.

That was an incredibly solid debate

I love the debate!! Fire it up boys!!

Great segment

JJ looking thrilled to be on the show

Luv those 5’s Kev!!!👏🔥💯🎯

Yall think Jj getting fired, I think this is a great conversation lmao. They both making excellent points.

Finally, the first take I love!

Mad Dog's take is built for radio and a little old school but I love it.

Ayoooo JJ be Wylin made hella sense … but he deff came crazy at SAS 🤣🤣 he looked like he wanted to fight

JJ is too aggressive in conversation and completely disrespects Mad Dog. This is similar to how Richard Sherman is towards Skip. Maybe some group therapy for Sherm and JJ is in order.

10:13, This is a very interesting discussion, and Stephen A. with a quiet take down of JJ🎤

I love JJ & Stephen A. It's a great mix!!!

KD sounds so confused as to what he wants. 😂

Perfect example to reply a crazy argument “let’s address the question”

The way Mad Dog purses his lips before he is allowed to outshout Stephen A tells me his words are actually, physically trying to push themselves out of his mouth, and he is holding on for dear life, keeping them in until its time. 😂
