Perk only saying 4 without naming Luka or Giannis is so crazy. I am so sick of this guy being on ESPN having any type of voice

If youโre going to go out your way to include Steph then letโs not pretend like LeBron, Giannis & KD wouldnโt be over Brunson if they werenโt old. He wants to be Stephโs friend so bad bcuz most of the other aging greats donโt rock with him. Stop it Stephen ๐ฅฑ.

Howd they not included Luka in that list?

May 14, 2026 at 6:58 pm
WRONG! Brunson came to NY in 2022. KD was already on da nets in 2019-20 season but was hurt. LIARS

SA is incorrect. When we missed on Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, it was Julius Randall we settled for. When the rent was a free agent, Bronson was still with the Mavericks.

Josh Hart was right, SAS is not a real Knicks fan and don’t know sports. JB went to the Knicks in 2022 3 years after KD went to Brooklyn and you have Perk sitting there saying “right, right!” Dumb and Dumber!

1) SAS calling someone a fake Knick fan is hilarity, he has no business talking lmao
2) there was no Kevin Durant Sweepstakes when we signed JB. Nice try though
