Thank you jj reddick for taking the time to discuss actual players that had amazing games that is never talked about in the National media.🙌🏼

[Seddysaid]

Mikal Bridges:

31 points on 17 shots.

Defended CJ McCollum for 36 plays, held him to 10 points on 3/11 shooting

Defended Brandon Ingram for 34 plays, held him to 7 points on 2/5 plus 3 turnovers. He also had 4 BLKS & 2 STLS. DPOY🙌🏼

Suns really did great developing Bridges, Ayton & Johnson hopefully they can keep this core together post CP3 considering the money they gave him

[nathansheffield]

One of the most underrated in the game

[professorzoom]

i’ll forever support this podcast. not that it needs me 😂 Mikal just dropped one of the best playoff games by a defensive specialist ever. Lebron, Kobe, KD, Vince Carter and Dirk are the only others to drop 30+ points and 4 blocks in a playoff game

[anniketennakoon]

Philly really traded Mikal for a nobody LMFAO 😭 bum franchise

[smam]

31 points, 12/17 shooting, 2 steals, 4 blocks, locked down ingram and mccollum... mikal bridges was the best player on both sides of the court this game.... He is easily one of the most underrated players in the league currently, if not THE most underrated....

Media really sleeps on the Suns, glad u guys can see it.

The Mikal for Zhaire Smith trade is one of the top 5 worst in NBA history considering Smith has played less than 150 career minutes, scored less than 100 career points, and has missed 315/328 games since being drafted with a combination of GLeague, DNP-CDs, injuries, and a severe allergic reaction to sesame seeds.

When you factor in the fact that Mikal is from PA, went to Nova, the Sixers were in need of his exact draft profile/skillset, and his mom worked in the Sixers front office… holy L for the 76ers

Admittedly, I don't watch too many Suns games but I tuned in to yesterday's. Bridges immediately stood out to me. I was amazed that the supposed 4th or 5th best player on the team was just dominating on both ends.

JJ is the realist one! Media spent most of their shows talking about Ja’s dunk. Respect ✊🏾

[bigseannn]

Mikal bridges my favorite player to trade for in 2K along with Jonathan Issac and OG lol

[ashwrightyy]

One of the worst draft night deals was the 76ers getting rid of him. They could have had him and maxey, they drafted both of them. Added to that they could have had Jordan Poole instead they opted for Matisse Donut. Bridges + Maxey + Poole + Embiid, that's a very handy quartet.

i love how jj always mentions the guys who dont get enough credits. mikal's performance last night was insane🔥

[Bachisme]

Yea sorry, Marcus Smart is good but Mikal literally showed last night why that award is truly his

[abalwaysballing]

The media doesn’t like the suns bruh. Zero credit for the whole team

[LoudButtons]

He is the only NBA player in history after all. MIKAL BRIDGES

[Claviceptic]

Without a doubt one of my favourite players at his position. Wings, man. Gotta love 'em.

[StonerKitchen]

Salute to JJ for being one of the only people who consistently gives Bridges props.

[mjgoat]

It’s crazy he hasn’t missed a game in the NBA. True dedication. Nothing but respect for bridges.
