Summary

Reports indicated mutual interest between the Knicks and Kevin Durant at the trade deadline, a move some are calling "here we go again" given the trend of older players not winning championships. This sparks questions about potential big changes to the Knicks roster, with even Rick Pitino suggesting KAT isn't at his best. An older interview with Aaron Rodgers from 2005 highlighted his need to always prove himself, while Russell Wilson spoke at Giants OTAs. Chris Russo criticized SiriusXM for mishandling Michelle Beadle's show takeover by Stephen A. Smith. The Pacers came back to beat the Thunder in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the Yankees shut out the Guardians 4-0 with Cody Bellinger contributing three RBIs, and the Mets lost to the Dodgers before heading to Colorado. The segment concluded with a discussion about the Knicks' future and an upcoming guest, Nicky Cass.
