Yahoo! Sports Writer Spears Mangles Warriors' Steph Curry's Name At-Least Five Times on KNBR Post-Game Show

Marc Spears

 So this guy, Marc Spears, from Yahoo! Sports comes on the Warriors KNBR post-game show Thursday Night as a "guest-host" and I swear to God mangled Steph Curry's name five times! I counted. 3 times in one sentence.


"Steve Curry, Steven Curry, Steph, --I like 'Steve myself."

(Nervous laughter from the producer in background.)


Worse yet, Spears, who should know better but is considered by Yahoo and KNBR, I guess, as a hipster, cool dude got seriously worse later on too. He's dreadful on radio. Sounded real crappy. Unintended-laughter entertainment special.


I mean, at least Stephen A. Smith has credentials and can actually elicit information and not butcher a star NBA player's name like STEPH Curry. Steve? Not.


Did Spears think he was funny with the "Steve" routine? I hope it was a matter of Spears simply fucking up because that gets you post-game radio gigs on Knibber.


The rest of the show sounded dreadful too --mounds of dead air. Awkward interview with more dead air with some guy in Sacramento who had all the charisma of a poached egg. Thankfully his name wasn't Steph.
