🔥🏀 START. SIT. CUT. — WHO’S THE BEST ISO SCORER IN THE NBA?!

When the ball is in your hands, the defense knows you’re coming, and you STILL get a bucket… that’s a different level. 😤

We’re putting three of the NBA’s toughest one-on-one shot creators head-to-head:

🎯 Kyrie Irving — handles for DAYS.
🔥 Luka Dončić — impossible to keep in front of.
⚡ Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — gets to his spots and makes it look easy.

Diego Thompson, C-PAIN & Derrick Thompson had to make the call…

🟢 START — Who’s your go-to bucket getter?
🪑 SIT — Who barely misses the cut?
✂️ CUT — Who are you leaving out?

Three elite iso scorers. Three different styles. And some TOUGH decisions. 👀

This is just a clip from the full Start. Sit. Cut. segment coming soon to the Pick’em Pros YouTube channel! 🎬

👇 YOUR TURN: START. SIT. CUT.

Kyrie Irving. Luka Dončić. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

WHO YA GOT?! 🏀🔥

🔥🏀 THE NBA SEASON IS HERE… SO WHO ARE YOU STARTING?!

STEPHEN CURRY. ANTHONY EDWARDS. JALEN BRUNSON.

Three elite guards. Three VERY different games. But you only get to make ONE choice at each spot. 👀

The latest START. SIT. CUT. puts the crew to the test as we decide who we’d START, SIT and CUT heading into the 2026–27 NBA season!

🚨 AND NO… THIS ISN’T A LEGACY DEBATE!

We’re talking RIGHT NOW. Who gives you the best chance to win this season?

🎯 Steph’s shooting
💪 Ant’s explosiveness
🔥 Brunson’s ability to take over

This one had us making some HARD decisions! 😂

👇 YOUR TURN: START. SIT. CUT.

🏀 Stephen Curry
🏀 Anthony Edwards
🏀 Jalen Brunson

😂🏀 WEMBY IS HUNGRIER THAN SGA?! MIKE SIMS BROUGHT RECEIPTS! 👀🔥

The NBA season tips off TONIGHT with the Thunder vs. Spurs… and Mike Sims has a theory about why San Antonio has the advantage.

And this man came PREPARED. 😂📱

Wemby: Training underwater with weights like a NAVY SEAL. 💪

SGA: Showing up at fashion shows looking fresh. 😂

Mike spent 21 YEARS IN THE MARINE CORPS, so he knows a thing or two about training hard. And apparently, he believes Wemby wants it MORE! 🫡🔥

Christopher “C-PAIN” Davis is riding with Mike and the Spurs…

But Derrick and Diego aren’t buying it. They believe the OKC Thunder will be the better team this season. 👀

Two teams. Two superstars. Two VERY different arguments about who’s hungrier. 😂

👇 THUNDER OR SPURS — WHO YA GOT?!

THIS MIGHT BE THE HARDEST ONE WE’VE DONE YET. 😳🔥

Adrian Peterson. Derrick Henry. LaDainian Tomlinson.

Three absolute BEASTS. Three different styles. Three legendary careers.
