For some reason, reporters decide to say some super dumb things during playoff season.
Last week, one journalist, who is probably better off remaining nameless, asked Kyrie Irving how much of a father figure LeBron James is to Irving and the rest of the Cavaliers.
Then, Brian Windhorst And Skip Bayless went on "First Take" and talked about how the best post-game press conference moment of the playoffs, between Steph Curry and his twin/baby Riley Curry, should've never happened.
Why? Because kids are a distraction to the something important, or whatever.
In any event, we're going to give these obviously talented reporters the benefit of the doubt and call these "brain farts." In honor of those brain farts, here are 20 of the dumbest questions sports reporters have ever asked.
