The fact that Stephen A Smith has a job still boggles my mind. The fact that nobody at ESPN is capable of beating Stephen A in an argument shows how far the company has fallen. Every day is a new day in the brainless world of Stephen A Smith. Once again, Stephen A made a fool out of himself on First Take.
One topic today was about which NBA players would you pick to build a team around. Luka Doncic was 2nd on the list according to The Hoop Collective in terms of players you would want to start a franchise with. ESPN’s resident idiot had a wild take.
