    Max Kellerman is a crappy, Yankee version of bayless. He should stick with boxing.

    Bayless is a no talent hack too.

    This show is so riddicoulous. Two assholes saying and shouting one on another. And they split this got duo, so Scream A Smith got this asshole to shout at, and Bayles got some former NFL asshole to shout at.

    He also said Curry was better than LeBron & the Duds were better than the '96 Bulls last season.

    These men are s who have sold out any real pretense at sports journalism for scripted, contrived controversy format to generate viewership. Who knows (or cares) what their real opinions are.

    It's like wondering why professional wrestlers can't get along.

    With a that makeup Stephen A is looking more and more like Little Richard. Tutti Fruti indeed.

    OP must be young. Any Spur fans who were around from the beginning of Duncan's career can remember how many times ESPN and Stephen A bashed Duncan for being boring and said multiple times he was overrated. I remember Stephen A way back in '04 was the reason why I stopped taking ESPN seriously. Eventually Duncan won a few more les and ESPN had no choice and had to respect him. For the Kawhi bashing to stop he's going to have to win a few les.

    The Fox Show and ESPN show are two awful versions of the same formula. Bayless and Screamin Smith just get more money for themselves by going separate ways. All I know is Skippy left DFW 20 years ago and literally NO ONE spoke well of him. An aloof loner totally out for himself and would lie cheat and steal to put himself in the limelight.

    KL has won as many as Curry, Horseface, and Thompson in GS and played in more finals games than any of them. More than Durant too.

    I agree but the media has always had double standards and biases against the Spurs. I remember way back in 2000 they refused to give Duncan credit for the '99 championship but bought into the asterisk crap that Phil Jackson had created. At the time Duncan had an equal amount of championships as Kobe and Shaq but both were billed as better players. It was a bunch of BS but eventually Duncan silenced them by winning to the point where they couldn't disrespect him anymore. Kawhi is going to have to do the same. Also you have to factor in Kawhi just like Duncan is not an attention and isn't having a relationship with the media like those guys you listed above. It's really a two way street if your not going to be buddy buddy with the media then they are not going to respect you. The Kawhi disrespect doesn't bother me since I have lived through the media ting on Robinson and Duncan. It's tough for the very young fans who are new to this experience.

    Every time we win a ign le, the league creates a diversion to keep from promoting us. in 99 it was the lockout season and all that "asterik" bul . in 2003 it was about Kobe and Shaq not gettng along and if Jason Kidd would sign with us. In 2005 they made it about ratings(in which new seeding came about which prompted 2 of the top 3 teams in the entire league playing each other in the 2nd round the next year). In 2007 it was about Lebron's first finals. In 2014 it was about if Lebron was going to re-sign with the Heat. None of our les after we've won them in the media have been about US. it's always something.

    The Spurs got respect in 2014, but not before that - even if it was for like 2 days or so. The Mike Greenbergs of the world were crying in 2007 about PHOENIX getting jobbed because their players were undisciplined and not properly taught by Mike DumToni. Prior to that the Spurs were BORING. This team has not been boring in a decade or more.

    Bayless somehow seemed more believable. I feel like MK sometimes just wants to burst out laughing during these planned debates.

    But dear God this is better than having to listen to Shannon Sharpe speak for more than 2 minutes. I thought Steven A. was irritating.

    In hindsight, we had the best set up for this kind of stupid show with Steven A. and Bayless. Now we have 2 of them that are far, far worse than the original.

    You're correct. Shannon Sharpe does not have the ability to enunciate words in the English language, and yet he is in the business of broadcasting.

    Sharpe is an unqualified mush mouth.

    When I was younger the disrespect bothered me but as I got older and more mature and saw how respect from the media is very hollow. For a team to get respect from the media they have to either play in a big market or the star players have to be attention s. Both reasons for getting respect are very shallow. Whenever the Spurs win a championship it's awesome because they play the spoiler and destroy the media's dream of seeing certain teams win which makes it that much better. I enjoyed it especially in '05 seeing Stephen A in tears especially after he had proclaimed that Duncan was soft and would lose against the Pistons. Imagine how they will react this year if the Spurs take out the Warriors and Cavs. Bottom line the media is a bunch of es there is no point in getting respect from es.

    Makes me think of Rachel Nichol's Twitter last night. A top 5 MVP candidate had just gotten his first 40 point game while beating the champs on the road, and she repeatedly made posts about Cousins getting some raw deal on a bad call at the end of a KINGS game...not once mentioning the outcome of Spurs/Cavs. I'm not upset by things like this, it's expected and kind of hilarious.

    They want big market success, controversy, and after that they want the success of loud players who pound their chests, scream, dance, and generally disrespect their opponents.
