During a recent episode of the Roommates Show by Playmakers, hosts Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart gave their opinions about the Mikal Bridges Trade. Brunson and Hart expressed their surprise at the trade. Hart explained that the Nets fans are saying some random stuff about the Bridges trade.
Jalen Brunson: I never thought it would happen, because, when’s the last time the Nets made a trade with the Knicks?”
Josh Hart: “1983.”
Jalen Brunson: “When we used to see each other after games, everyone would be like, ‘Oh these guys are recruiting.’ I was like, well, it’s never gonna happen.”
Josh Hart: “You don’t really think it’s gonna happen but you’re like, let me mess with Mikal because that’s my guy. Then Nets fans just be saying random stuff all the time, so it was poking fun at the Nets a little.”
