Chris Brickley Got Hired As Carmelo Anthony's Trainer After He Missed A Potential Game-Winning Shot For The Knicks

On today's Pardon My Take... CHRIS BRICKLEY! The NBA Trainer joined Mr. Cat and Mr. Commenter in-studio to talk about his path to being a trainer, playing for Rick Pitino, Carmelo trusting him and if this is finally the year for Ben Simmons. 

Brickley is known for training a bunch of the best basketball players in the world, including LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and many, many more. You can check out his recent work on his Instagram below...

With all this in mind, how did Brickley get his first big break in the NBA Training world? It all started with a man named Carmelo Anthony...

From New York Knicks intern, to the trainer for the franchise player, just like that. If Carmelo made that game-winner, maybe that would have changed the entire trajectory of Chris Brickley's career. But it is really cool to see the domino effect that this had for him.

Great guest, great interview.
