Clearly Stephen A didn’t hear what his colleague Mike Greenberg had said…
😂😂😂
Clearly right
Greeny even doubled down on
He’s such a narcissist that he thinks the reported was talking about First Take.
@@kevothegoat9891 yup. That’s why that reporter asked the question. 🤷🏽♂️
Oh stop SAS. Greedy very clearly said the Lakers SHOULD tank. Believe it or not, not everything is about you.
Stephen A acting like that ain’t a crazy question just to cover for Greeny 😂.
Yo Greeny CLEARLY said "lose the game" 😂
Thats ALL CAP. GREENY literally said they SHOULD and he doubled down
SAS is a clown man, he was next door when greeny said that. Sucks espn doesn’t check him ever.
Come on Stephen A that question is obviously headline bait 😂. Ham could see that and you got mad he made a joke out of the question and didn’t give your company a narrative to run with lol
Stephen A is on a smear campaign against the Lakers. He’s gonna criticize them if they lose to the defending champs as the underdogs and make it more about them losing than Denver winning or if they somehow win will belittle it 😂.
@@withallduerespect5258stop coming up with an excuse for yourself if the Lakers lose 😂
@@juanthompson8016 Ain’t they expected to lose? Are you saying you would make a big deal if they do?
Mike Greenberg said the lakers would be better off if they LOSE to the pelicans. The reporter didn’t misrepresent the statement made by your colleague.
SAS a 🤡
Steven A got his feeling riled up on getting called inmate of the asylum 😂.
It's insane how his book is titled Straight Shooter but he knows how to twist his own words and his colleagues when he's called out.
Lmao nah Greeny spent the entire day yesterday saying they should duck Denver and everybody was getting on him 😂
Stephen A is capping…run the tape
Probably one of the worst Stephen A sports clips ever smh
He’s calling out Greeny 😂😂
Yup
O yeah, I forgot First Take the only show that exists so every comment and question is about them 😂🤦🏽♂️
Now when somebody tell him what Greeny said he need to come on here and apologize 😂😂😂😂
Sometimes I don’t understand what Stephen A is arguing about or why he’s even arguing something in the first place
Steven is always talking like a tough guy and it's never not funny as hell because he really thinks he's intimidating somebody
Clearly he ain’t watch Get up this morning lol
Calm down stephen a don’t pull out the 9 😂
Only the real know.
Stephen A. Smith is more fired up than a Lakers fan during a playoff game! 🔥
Mike Greenberg literally said to tank …
Greenberg said he doesn't care what anybody says they should lose the game on purpose 😂😂
Wouldn't asking whether the Lakers would tank the game be seen as worse to Darwin Hamm than someone suggesting they should? Like he literally said that was an insane suggestion. So, to Hamm, Stephen A is asking if he is insane, rather than simply suggesting an insane idea.
They woulda dragged the Lakers if he said they thought about it 😂. The media is toxic
Don’t get mad at the reporter he ain’t say that nonsense 😂
Protective 😂 Stfu. Greenberg said, "LOSE THE GAME". Stephen A is becoming more and more insufferable by the day.
This is the stupidest theory out there. If they duck the nuggets they get the kings. The kings been whooping the lakers too so why do that? And less rest. Btw. The media was saying that. Greeny said it.
Greeny said EXACTLY that, adding - half jokingly after - that like other geniuses, he wouldn't be appreciated in his time.
I can guarantee that SAS doesnt even watch the Lakers Games
Y'all going to act greeny didn't say this? 😂 😂
But it's the fact that y'all are questioning the Laker's heart for no reason. The lakers have not been getting smoked. They are losing these games by a few possessions. I understand a loss is a loss. I just don't understand why the media feels that way.
@ 1:10 On Monday, April 15th's Get Up, ESPN's Mike Greenberg said, "Here is what I am proposing that the Lakers should do. Tomorrow night, they should not play LeBron James; they should not play Anthony Davis. They should tank the 7-8 game, (and) take their chances in a Friday night, one-and-done at home against either Golden State or Sacramento and go in and play OKC, instead of playing Denver in Round One, which is a buzzsaw!"
So get your facts straight Stephen A., before lecturing others!
Not only did he say it he doubled down a day later 💀
SAS clearly not saw Grenny
I'm going to need somebody to make a supercut of all the times that was said and show it to Stephen A quick. Because he either just lied on national TV or he only watches his show
Lakers tried to loose that game but the refs wouldn’t let them😂
If a team wants to lose a game they can easily come on now 😂.
SAS with the bull today, and HE suggested they lose
No no no. Mike Greenburg SAID they SHOULD 😂 do ya research SAS
Stephen A mad. They got it all on tape lol.
lmao greeny been closing past couple days saying this SAS aint been watching any ESPN I guess
GREENY said it Stephen A. He said it on Get Up a few times.
Jesus, Stephan A: Mike Greenberg: "Should the Lakers sit AD and Lebron to avoid Denver in the 1st round..." Then on his podcast: "Don't win tonight. Don't win tonight. Because you walk into a buzz saw..." Oh, sorry...you did qualify that with "weak assed reporters", so that would include Greeny.
Thats a lie the 2 people that sitting there is on record, saying they should tank it...
Bit of an overreaction
Greeny said just that yesterday lol like every comment says. If we heard it I know Stephen A does. At least he has his coworkers back.
Your wrong it's ok get out your feelings bro 😂
ESPN said exactly what he said. Sas is wrong.
What an absolutely horrible "defense" from this clown. Now he's trying to twist words to make it seem smart. Bro, no matter how yoy word it, the message was clear: you were suggesting that they lose to avoid Denver. YOU are the problem with the industry because you have all these platforms so you think you have the world in your hands.
Greeny doesn’t know a thing about basketball idk why we pay attention to anything he has to say
No Stephen A.. the media say that. People on ESPN say that
This man acting like wondering if the Lakers were gonna tank isn't just as ridiculous and disrespectful. And, one of the people on ESPN did say the Lakers SHOULD tank. Nonsense.
The path to the finals goes through denver... you will see them at one point.. whether its the first round of WCF...No point in ducking
I guess Ham touched a nerve up in here ... I guess SAS is part of the insane asylum sources... A hit dog will holler
that's not what greeny was saying
🧢. People like Greeny and his crew along with people on other networks like Kevin Wildes were all saying it.
Greeny clearly said it
Denver stomps the Lakers in 5 anyways
SAS has mastered saying nothing
Lakers don't make it 👍🏽👍🏽
4-0
People talking like the Denver so tough, this the same denver with joker that lost a game on purpose to duck Kevin Durant warriors so the Rockets get to play them 😂 and the warriors still smoked them when they met up 😂 they did it again by losing the spurs to avoid the clippers cause they think the lakers easier but they'll learn
Denver is tough.
They're defending champions for a reason. And in case you forgot the nuggets beat kd and the suns in 6 games last year. And the clippers are a dogshit poverty franchise. They're going to fall apart like they do every year. Ya'll just love to yap
Ulol may hater deto ng Denver😂😂😂
Stephen A is a 🤡
Time to retire Stephen A 😂😂
Gettem Stephen A!
Hah first
🤡🤡🤡
