Typically on First Take, we’d see Stephen A. Smith taking control of the set and talking over everyone. He’s normally yelling and screaming while trying to make his point. That’s just what he does — it’s how he is.
But Brian Windhorst may have had the greatest command of the First Take set that we have ever seen on Friday.
For a full two minutes, Windhorst was talking about what really seemed like a mundane trade between the Brooklyn Nets and the Utah Jazz for Royce O’Neale. They did it after news broke that Kevin Durant was traded and nobody noticed it.
