New York Knicks legend Bill Bradley has dunked on Donald Trump’s NBA Finals plans.
As the Knicks head to the NBA Finals for the first time this century, Bradley told TMZ Sports that if the New York native president does follow through with his stated idea of attending one of the games, then he won’t actually be the star of the show.

Trump, who has attended multiple high-profile sports events since his return to office, is “not going to be the center of attention,” said Bradley, who helped lead the Knicks to two NBA championships in the 1970s before serving as a Democratic U.S. senator from New Jersey until 1997.
“The center of attention will be the Knicks and whoever the team is,” he continued, arguing that Trump would have “to realize he is second fiddle.”
“He is the president of the United States but at the NBA final, if he attends, he’s second fiddle. He’s not first,” he added.
“Quite frankly, as I said, I don’t give a shit what he does,” Bradley claimed. “What I care about is what the team does and whether we get to the top of the mountain and whether guys have memories of things they sacrificed for each other to get there and create that bond that lasts a lifetime.”
