The Jump

I used to love every time the show started during the week with the cool intro for the show and what to hear and learn about in the news of what is happening in the basketball world, but lately the show The Jump has been talking more about politics and other things that are not that much about basketball and more about criticizing players when they say a post game comment or something in a interview during the week. I am just glad that there have been better shows out there that have better basketball coverage and news and having fun while talking about what is happening in the world of basketball.

Great show and love Rachel and the guests like T-Mac, Paul Pierce, Scottie, RJ, Brian etc. Love everyone except for Kendrick. He constantly contradicts himself and loses all credibility. Does he even know basketball? Most of the show is everyone arguing with Kendrick, trying to give him basketball knowledge. He says things like how LeBron (on the Lakers) should be MVP over Giannis because LeBron has nobody and Giannis has the entire Bucks team that would get the 4 seed without Giannis. And then his next line, when asked who should get the Defensive Player of the Year, is Anthony Davis. It's laughable when this guy is trying to make a point and he is literally taking airtime from people that actually have a basketball IQ. It's like a classroom being disrupted by a class clown when everyone is trying to have an intelligent conversation.

There are too many of these basketball shows that spam my youtube feed.

Back in the 90s they had basketball shows that were entertaining. Now, they try hard to be entertaining. Yes, they are trying to entertain.

The Jumper has guests that talk about nothing which is hosted by a peculiar "fem" host. I'm not sure why she is there.

Overall i'm not impressed with this show. it has a few segments that I can sit and watch but overall I'm not impressed.

Verdict: I suggest you rely on playing basketball instead of listening to people talk about it.
