Summary

The Knicks may be two wins away from the Eastern Conference Finals, but the focus remains on OG Anunoby and what his injury could mean for the rest of the run. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate when OG might return, why the diagnosis matters beyond this series, and how much the Knicks’ championship hopes depend on him being available. Evan and Tiki also look ahead to a crucial Game 3 in Philadelphia, warning against assuming the series is already over. They compare the situation to the Knicks’ painful series against Indiana two years ago, discuss whether the Sixers still have enough fight to make things uncomfortable, and react to questions around Mitchell Robinson’s illness and how the Knicks handled their rotation without him.

And so what we'll do. But if it's a contact injury, then it's likely not a hamstring. Right. That's my point. Which is probably better.
