It’s not often you hear the New York Knicks’ name paired together with the Los Angeles Lakers these days. Stephen A. Smith added a welcome exception earlier this week.
Speaking on ESPN’s First Take on Thursday, Smith was speaking with NBA insider Brian Windhorst and co-host Max Kellerman about the upcoming offseason. Taking a prompt from host Molly Qerim about All-Star Anthony Davis’ next destination, Smith foretold a positive outlook for the Knicks.
While a majority of the conversation focused on the current New Orleans Pelican’s chances of joining the Los Angeles Lakers, Smith argued against the case.
