And honestly, when these top-tier athletes give us a peek into those “wait, am I the crazy one here?” moments with their partners? Pure. Comedy. Gold. So, what did the Greek Freak do now?

TNT’s Reggie Miller didn’t hold back during Game 5 between the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks, mocking a questionable foul call with a fiery quip: “Oh come on now, I’ve been kissed harder than that.” His sarcastic jab came as Karl-Anthony Towns was benched after picking up his fourth foul, a moment that quickly shifted the game’s momentum. With Towns out, the Pacers sparked a 10-2 run, trimming the Knicks’ lead to 76-64 late in the third quarter.
