  1. Means he’s done good to get traded for his favorite player

  2. Fortunate for us, that’s pretty hilarious.

    Do the have player-specific flairs? Asking for a friend

  3. FoFoAndFo

    Thought he was gonna say AI as a Philly guy. Now i realize he was 4 during Iverson’s MVP campaign. I’m getting old.

    We will be cheering for you Mikal! And Cam!

    What’s unfortunate about Kevin Durant? He’s a great player.

  6. Overall_Machine_5668

    I’d say prolly lebron, Kobe, tiger woods, Allen iverson, Vince carter, sidney Crosby, Mario Steve yzerman joe Sakic Peter forsberg. To name a few

    Title had me thinking it was gonna be like Ray Rice or some shit

  8. cowmaster90

    The looooong pause before he responds is absolute gold.

    I bet he and Brunson are going to be hanging out more often now that they’re back in the same city!

    We traded him for a dead man I’m gonna be sick again

  10. parmanyugaming

    Based on the title I thought he was gonna say Karl malone

    Now I know I’m fucking old when dudes are naming KD as their favorite athlete growing up, it feels like only yesterday KD and the rest of OKC were these scary young kids coming up

    When your idols become your rivals, I love Mikal Bridges

    I’m buying my ticket to Mikal Island. Hopefully there’s still space

    You’d have to think though, with that answer, that he’s proud as shit of himself for being a vital piece in making a trade happen involving his favorite player.

    Like, yeah.. it’s not as good as playing with your idol, but being a main cog in a trade for him has to be pretty fucking validating.

    Hmmm, players 8 years older than me…

    – Walt Williams
    – Latrell Sprewell
    – Alonzo Mourning
    – Jim Jackson
    – Doug Christie

    Man, I wish the Suns didn’t have to give him up for KD. I know they would have had to give up some other player instead, but I doubt Brooklyn is taking Wainwright or Cam Payne for KD.

    For my money, Bridges was the hardest working player on the Suns this season.

    Gets traded by his hometown team on draft night and then gets traded for his favorite player. How can you not love this guy lol

    Long time Suns admirer here.

    I didn’t like this trade. Mikal B was/is one of my favs.

    Loving that Mikal is gaining a lot more fans around the league, besides being a bad ass iron man and great player he’s gotta be top 5 most wholesome dude in the NBA

  20. Thought he was going to say OJ or something wild.

  21. Taken from the Brooklyn Nets youtube channel which by the way I highly recommend giving the most recently posted episode a watch : https://youtu.be/5i5cLasu2fI

    Was pretty cinematic and gives a good inside look of the last few weeks for the Nets

    Great now fully aware of people had time to grow up while watching Kevin Durant play in the league. Guess it’s time to start looking at retirement homes
