[Levity]

But how many times did he apologize?

[HEAT111]

Busstt you know...:lol

[oh the horror]

Probably nerves. I mean he's what? 19 or so being put out there In the bit leagues now.

[ArbitraryWater]

bron was one confident alpha from the start, with like the most spotlights on any rookie, ever

[Living Being]

As long as he goes in the dunk contest, I don't give a shit, you know?

[tmacattack33]

LOL. I didn't even noticed when i watched it the first time .

This year's draft drew the highest TV rating ever at 3.1. LeBron's is the second highest at 2.7.

[Meticode]

LOL. I didn't even noticed when i watched it the first time .
I did. I watched it live and some of us were in the thread like, "Damn, he's starting and ending sentences with "you know""

[Rose'sACL]

I did. I watched it live and some of us were in the thread like, "Damn, he's starting and ending sentences with "you know""
he once said "you know" in the middle of a laugh.

[Sakkreth]

He's clearly used to say this. But nerves increased amount of this filler dramatically. It's quite normal for 19yo to be nervous in such press meetings with all eyes on him.

[Psileas]

Is he worse than Aldridge? I've heard him having some comparable "performances".

[tmacattack33]

If you ignore the "you know"s though, he seems pretty smart.

[TheMarkMadsen]

He's a humble hardworking kid who doesn't expect anything to be handed to him

Cleveland is going to love him.

[ZenMaster]

You're probably right, but why does he(and a lot of other people) ask "you know?" in a lot in their sentencens, and why would being nervous make you ask "you know?" even more?

NBA ratings sucked ass in the early '00's. Not surprising.

And?

What does that have to do with what I said?

No player entered the league to as much fanfare and attention as James.

[TheMarkMadsen]

How is he supposed to be himself when you're counting his "you knows" you know?

[Sakkreth]

If you ignore the "you know"s though, he seems pretty smart.

Overusing fillers is quite common for intellectual people aswell. Even presidents overuse certain fillers in their speeches that they don't have written down.

You don't get that?

Cmon now...

[Genaro]

At least he's not talking about practice.

[TheMarkMadsen]

And?

Must be why his debut in the finals drew the lowest rating in NBA finals history.

Spurs

[TheMarkMadsen]

Spurs

99, 03, & 05 all drew higher ratings.

99 & 05 by a significant margin.

That's true but Bron has been on tv since his junior or sophomore year in HS.

[Living Being]

It's the same as, you know, "ummmm."

[ZenMaster]

You don't get that?

Cmon now...

I understand fillers, but why a question?

[Living Being]

It's not a real question. :hammerhead:

It's a terrible habit that's what it is.

[Living Being]

It's a terrible habbit that's what it is.

After his, you know...press conference. He went with Blatt, and Griffin to support the community in opening up their new Activity Center for Cleveland Clinic...

[SOD 21]

Geez, cut a kid a break who is only a year out of high school for being a little nervous on the biggest night of his life.

You know?

[MUGEN]

Fk! That's even more impressive than LaMarcus 'you know' Aldridge!

[Rose'sACL]

already breaking records and hasn't played a game yet.

[D-Wait]

Didn't notice it while I watched the press conference for the first time...

Probably didn't notice it because of being used to Waiters using fillers like that...
Though Waiters' best filler is ''at the end of the day'' in almost every sentence :lol

[navy]

Not a big deal. Alot of people have speech fillers especially when they are nervous. He plays basketball.

[NattyPButter]

Wiggins says "you know"
Waiters says "at the end of the day"
You know at the end of the day none of this shit matters.

[MUGEN]

already breaking records and hasn't played a game yet.

We definitely have a winner

[9erempiree]

I don't trust guys that says "you know"

[Rake2204]

That's impressive. And a little bit humorous. Completely understandable, but still humorous. Sounds like a good guy.

He has an infectious smile.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

SMH at the nikka who actually counted it

[buddha]

he could just be socially awkward, with like aspergers or something, but I want to say he is stupid and will be a bust because I don't like his teeth.
