Famous NBA Media personality Stephen A Smith and the Los Angeles Lakers’ superstar LeBron James’ equation has never been so smooth. Smith publicly shared his feelings about not personally talking with James, but their broken relationship never restricts him from commenting on something related to James.

Recently, James’ cryptic online post “The Second Decision” made noise online. Many believed the veteran guard was about to make his announcement, while some suspected it was something related to a brand promotion. However, James cleared all the confusion, and the post was related to a brand, Hennessy’s marketing stunt.

Stephen A. Smith did not hold back and shared his thoughts on James’s action. “If you play like garbage at any point in time when it really, really counts, I’m going to think about that Hennessy commercial and wonder if you were drinking something before the game,” Stephen A. Smith added as the loudest critic.

Besides those off-court dramas, his health remains a big concern for the Lakers ahead of the season. The big man is reportedly missing back-to-back preseason games due to his recent glute injury, but is expected to be on track for the opener against the Golden State Warriors. With high hopes, fans are eager to witness him on the court and playing at a high level for the Lakers.

Stephen A. Smith wants the New York Knicks to trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo. He believes Giannis is so good that almost no one on the Knicks could match his presence. However, Giannis reportedly showed interest in joining the Knicks.

“Giannis is a monster man. Getting somebody of that caliber, to me nobody outside of Jalen Brunson would have been safe for me personally, because that’s how I feel about Giannis. He’s just that fantastic,” Smith added. “The New York Knicks, if you can get that dude to the garden. Everybody but Jalen Brunson I’m giving up. I’m giving up every damn body. The Knicks obviously did not feel that way. Knicks obviously didn’t feel that way.”

Now, it’s time to see how the Milwaukee Bucks respond to a deal. As long as there is no proposal coming from any team, Antetokounmpo’s spot remains secured in the Bucks’ depth. However, if a strong deal that matches the Bucks’ expectations, Giannis might make a move, but the Knicks will be his only choice.
