ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith is dissatisfied with the New York Knicks’ performance so far in their first-round playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks.
On Friday’s First Take show, Smith called the Knicks a group of sorry asses and blamed Knicks forward Mikal Bridges for Giannis Antetokounmpo’s absence from the squad.
You’re all sorry asses right now! After the Knicks’ defeat in Game 3, Smith remarked on First Take that he was losing his “damn mind. “
Mikal Bridges, the honeymoon is finished. Dawg! We didn’t anticipate that you would give up five first-round selections in return for him. Mikal Bridges was scoreless against the Atlanta Hawks, prompting criticism from Bridges.
I’m staring at a slew of zeros, a bunch of donuts… That is why we do not have Giannis as a member of the New York Knicks right now, he explained.
The honeymoon has ended… Josh Hart, Mr. What’s wrong, he said, continuing his attack on the Knicks, with just two points in 40 minutes.
The Knicks have surrendered home-court advantage against the Hawks in the first round and are now trailing 1-2.
A must-win Game 4 for New York will be held on Saturday in Atlanta.
