Summary

Nick Wright reacts to the New York Knicks firing head coach Tom Thibodeau and breaks down replacement candidates including the Dallas Mavericks' Jason Kidd. Later, Nick breaks down whether New York is targeting the Phoenix Suns' Kevin Durant or Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo to pair with Jalen Brunson. What would a trade require to bring either of these stars to New York City? Later, Nick explains why Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is having arguably the greatest guard season for any player not named Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson. Would an NBA championship makes SGA's 2025 better than Steph Curry's 2016 MVP season with the Warriors, when Golden State fell to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals? #Volume #Herd
