David Samson defending Stephen A. Smith is laughable. The ex-Miami Marlins president and host of Nothing Personal with David Samson said as much, all while coming to the defense of Stephen A. for mindlessly playing Solitaire during Game 4 of the NBA Finals. Pat McAfee respects Smith’s commitment to playing your father’s favorite card game. So does Samson. Well, sort of… “Defending someone who I think is a complete blowhard, who does not have complete conviction in all his feelings,” Samson began. “And just wants to make sure he can get clipped and aggregated. By the way, I’m genuflecting in your general direction to get $20 million to do what you do. Believe me.”

Barry Jackson: You guys are asking me KD questions under every Dolphins/Marlins post. Here's the deal: Nets aren't tempted by Herro-led package.Heat's chances thus hinge on Durant insisting to be moved & to only Miami/ Phoenix AND encouraging other teams not to pursue him, which hasn't happened
