    Am I the only one who doesn't like bballbreakdown?

    The guy is so biased. He's a huge Warriors dickrider and hates on LeBron constantly. His last video, he jabbed at LeBron a bunch, didn't even mention Curry completely disappearing, ignored Klay getting put on a poster. He made a whole video bashing DeMar Derozan for taking bad shots, but is silent when Curry does the same. Probably cried after that game 😂😂

    I can't stand him, never could. He seems knowledgeable but loves to pick and choose what he wants to love/hate on. Westbrook would drop a 40 point triple double and nail the game winning shot and that guy could make a 15 minute video highlighting every little thing he did wrong and claim how he basically cost them from winning by more. He's horrible.

    I've personally never really saw him overpraise GS, but I've also stopped watching him completely. So idk how he's been the past couple seasons.

      He made a video called something like "Why Steph Curry is an elite defender" I lost all respect for his basketball opinions after that. I watch a few videos now and then when they pop up on my home page, it's all the same nonsense.

        Always saw him as someone who found a niche at the right time. Launched a YouTube channel, branded it well, said some things that were right, then went viral enough that many somehow began looking to him as a definitive authority on anything related to the game of basketball.

        I respect those who enjoy his channel but I personally have a distaste for his style, direction, personality and even the notion that it's somehow been established that he must be referred to only as Coach Nick. Something about him has always struck me weird and possibly even fraudulent.

          Yeah most people here don't like him. I usually watch his content and appreciate it overall. Sometimes I agree with him, sometimes I don't.

            Never heard of him, but if that's his m.o., I have zero interest in watching the guy.

              Yeah I used to love his Youtube channel until I paid attention and realized he was a Warriors goon


              I used his page to keep up with around the league stories so I watch a couple GS videos last year and hes going CRAZY. He was riding them off something fierce. Then I watch videos of GS and CLE comparisons and its like he was attempting to hide his bias but he didnt really care at the end of the day if he was biased. I havent watched a bballBreakdown vid in a while. It is funny to hear of his analysis of the christmas game tho lol

                I stopped taking him seriously after "Curry is an elite defender". I know enough ball now that the basic stuff he talks about isn't useful to me. I watch his cavs and warriors videos cause they honestly funny to me.

                  Not much point in watching when the majority of the videos are Warriors, Cavs, Westbrook, and Harden.

                    Nick is a polarizing guy. I tend to fall in the middle, where I appreciate and like a lot of what he puts out, but some of it is over the top.

                    If you know what to look for, he has a lot of really helpful information. His stuff is definitely worth watching if you are able to filter out the garbage. A lot of the issue is his choice of words. Like Curry being an elite defender. He's not elite, but lost in the choice of words is that his video shows that Curry actually is a solid defender. Not poor, not elite. Stuff like that...you have to use your own discretion.

                    Another thing to keep in mind is that this is his job. It's a business. Maybe he likes to stir up certain narratives and story lines to keep the views and discussion up.

                      And to go along with that, you also have to realize Coach Nick isn't the definitive coach of anything. Like all coaches, he has his preferences and beliefs. Once you figure those out you kind of already know where he's going with his videos. It's pretty clear he favors ball and player movement over isolation basketball so teams/players that iso alot are going to get ragged on by him. It's not so much that he's a Warriors stan and a Cavs h@ter.

                      I just appreciate having a different way of watching players besides the infinite number of highlight videos on youtube.

                          I'm subbed to him. He's knowledgeable about the game but he does have personal vendettas against Bron, Russ, and Melo and d**krides Steph and Kawhi which gets annoying but he's pretty good overall
