The Lakers winning the NBA’s inaugural in-season tournament gave Shannon Sharpe an excuse to bring out his “GOAT” mask on First Take Monday morning.
Sharpe, a longtime proponent of LeBron James as the NBA’s greatest player ever, wasn’t going to miss the chance to use the Lakers’ win over the Pacers Saturday to make his case, and had the entire ESPN set in hysterics in the process. Coming out of a commercial break, Sharpe donned a mask of a goat’s head, immediately going into a dialogue about “GOAT James”.
Stephen A. Smith could hardly watch, but host Molly Qerim was nearly in tears laughing.
