It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN.

Hi, Boomer and Geo, Coneyal Live with the build forward tough studio on the fan and CBS Sports Network.

So yesterday we opened up the show talking about the domination that Janus had over the

Knicks and how sloppy and bad of a game Carl Anthony Towns had in Milwaukee.

And one of the things that we had brought up ever since he said it after the Knicks were eliminated from the postseason, into the offseason, into this regular season, was that Rick Petino talked about the thing that would unlock Carl Anthony Towns.

The one thing that he thought would make him better, and that was getting in better shape.

He talked about getting his body fat percentage down and needing to be in better physical condition to deal with the rigors of the NBA postseason.

So fast forward to this morning when Stefan Bondi of the New York Post

who covers basketball, both the Knicks and the Nets locally here, writes about what is

maybe challenging the Knicks early on in this season with Mike Brown's offense,

and what does he come up with, Boomer?

Well, he comes up with that there are a number of players that are out of shape,

and obviously he was also talking in his article that players can get themselves

in better shape as the season moves on. But it's obvious and it's apparent

that Carl Anthony Towns does not fit in this offense the way that the offense wants to be run because

he's supposed to be the first guy down the court and to get under the basket as the center on the

team. And he talks about conditioning and he says that that he and O.G. Ananovi,

which was a little shocking to me because O.G. to me, looks like he is in shape. But maybe he's not.

Maybe, maybe there are issues there. And maybe Stefan Bondi is getting this information from

somebody within the next. But it's something that, you know, I don't know how many times I got to say it, that, you know, these players are making so much money. And, you know, it is, it is vital that they take care of their bodies and that they put themselves in the best situation that they possibly can to be the best player they can be. And whether it be Mackay Beckton from five years ago or whether it be Luca Donchis

when he got traded from the Mavericks and there were other different reasons there

surrounding that, but it was obvious because Luca won on this offseason training thing
