ESPN's Stephen A. Smith is arguably one of the Worldwide Leader's most valuable assets. He continually finds a way to work his name into the national discourse, and buzz is everything in media today. The most recent way he entered the conversation, however, appears to have been unintentional. While ranting about DeMarcus Cousins signing with the Golden State Warriors, Smith referenced the "me-mes" about the transaction that have popped up on Twitter.
"Everybody's talking, oh my God, just do away with the NBA—you've got me-mes on Twitter with Adam Silver wearing a Golden State Warriors jersey," Smith said.
