NEW York Knicks reporter Jill Martin tried conducting an interview with actor Justin Bartha during the Knicks game against the Cavaliers, but her questions were met with unctuous, coquettish digressions that left the reporter — and the TV audience — clearly uncomfortable.

The “Hangover” and “National Treasure” actor displayed his PUA-approved template for flirting with Martin immediately, putting his arm around her and turning each question back at her.

“Best picture: Did you have a favourite movie?” Martin asked during her “Gimme a Minute” segment.

When Bartha cited Bradley Cooper-starring “American Sniper,” he used his “Hangover” co-star to — playfully, he hoped — toy with the blonde.

“You’ve gotta stop texting me about [Cooper],” he teased to a professional Martin, who calmly swatted aside his pitiful moves.

The topic shifted to the possibility of a “Hangover 4,” which prompted the biggest guffaw in a conversation — watched by millions — teeming with them.

“Maybe we can do something, like me and you, and we can get Bradley …” he offered, ostensibly talking about the movie.

“I don’t know how this became about me, we wanted to talk about you,” she replied to halt the interview, showing cracks in her strong veneer and understandably sounding more frustrated than playful.
