If you think Stephen A. Smith’s attack on Tyrese Haliburton was going to be unnoticed, then you are wrong. The veteran broadcaster took offence at the Pacers star guard’s comment against the media “talking heads.” As he dismissed the opinions of asking, “What do they really know about basketball?” SAS launched a scathing attack and even a warning. But the Indy fans are purely behind the superstar, and that’s why even Kendrick Perkins had to pay the price.
The fans trolled both ESPN broadcasters at the price of one. Two fans present at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse wore outfits from the famous Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels 1994 movie “Dumb and Dumber.” You probably know what comes next. The two fans wore the same suits Carrey and Daniels wore in a scene from the movie, with an upgrade. They also had face cutouts of ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith and Kendrick Perkins. Both Smith and Perkins are in Indianapolis working the game for ESPN.
A hard-to-miss moment since these two fans were next to the Pacers’ bench. And it seems the Celtics legend took notice of the fact, and his response was unlike SAS. No rants from Big Perk, just one word, “Lmao!!!!” We will have to tune in to ESPN to actually see if Smith and Kendrick Perkins took that joke well!
