Then we get to Mikal’s journey to becoming a Brooklyn Nets. Topics include: the moments after finding out about the trade, why he’s going to miss Phoenix, why he thinks it actually makes sense that The Suns traded for Kevin Durant, what he’s hoping to bring to The Brooklyn Nets, his big 45 point night, playing alongside Dorian Finney-Smith, how he’s getting along with Jacque Vaughn and so much more.

I miss my boys 😭😭😭😭
Hey, get Nikola Jokic on the Podcast
As phx fan it's surreal to See Mikel and Cam in different uniform. Sad they left Suns without title ane so young. Thank you for all your hard work.
So which OM3 correspondent is getting traded next year because we had Haliburton last year and Mikal now
Great guy. Took it way better than most people would lol
We miss mikal 😭😭😭😭
30:33
Sixers trading him away immediately for a bum and a shitty pick was arguably the worst mistake of the process considering how Bridges turned out as a perfect two way wing
Sometimes we forget these athletes are people.
Forever a Suns Legend.
MIKALBOW IN BKKKKKK
Awh man you can't end on that lol… I need stories now from Mikal about Bizzy. But gonna miss you Mikal! Will be a fan of wherever you end up.
Mikal interview starts at 30:40 …you're welcome.
Come back when free agency hits mikal…
City of Brooklyn loves him????
If only in Philly
Big win for Nets. Positive energy they need.
Aww kal. We. We love you
Love JJ’s takes man
Excited for Mikal hopefully he retires a net
I’m confused why the Celtics are brought up in this video 🤔 like damn probably talked more about Boston than Brooklyn
damn 30 mins before the interview starts
Without Imes words Tatum and Brown wouldn't be players they are this year. Celtics grew last year. Joe just continued what Ime started. Similar to how Kerr took over for Marc Jackson, Budenholzer took over for Kidd and so on…the growth of a player is in part because of the coaching around them. Vaughn does deserve credit since he took over for Nash's lackluster effort on possiblly the greatest offensive team ever assembled. If he would've had more coaching pedigree I think kyrie and Harden would've made it work
Ah here we go.
I'll still be wearing your jersey Bridges!
Can't stand the Suns mostly of Book and CP but I always respected Mikal's style of play. I'm glad he's doing well in Brooklyn.
Nets are going to be my Eastern Conference team now that they have Mikail and Cam J. Good luck to them both and the Nets.
KD will not guard the stars of the other team but he was the main reason the Nets got better on defensive. They lost some depth losing Bridges and Cam but now they got more open shots and a easy 30 from KD. They still got rim protection from Ayton.
Much love 25 🥲🧡💜
Why the hell does Tommy NONSTOP nod his head? Please bro stay still it’s distracting 😭😭😭😭
