What I am surprised about as we slowly begin thinking about this series and breaking this series down is the disrespect that the Knicks get.

And I want to give you a specific example of, I think, shocking disrespect.

And usually when Nick fans are upset with the way they're talked about or they're treated, it's the media.

And so it's like, oh, the media hates the Knicks, Knicks for clicks, blah, blah, like all that.

Everyone's got an agenda.

Yeah.

What I'm about to present to you is not the media.

It's not Frank Isola who you can blame.

It's not Justin Termini who you can blame.

It's the players because the athletic did a NBA players anonymous poll in which they asked 146 players who they think will win the NBA title and they can't pick their own team.

That's the rule.

Okay.

And I think the results, you'll be like, okay,

50% of people, which I think is smaller than I expected, said that the Oklahoma City Thunder

are going to win the NBA title. And these are players. So that makes sense. Players.

That makes sense.

146 players from around the league. 50% said the Thunder. I think we understand it.

Yes. Number two, by a wide margin, is the San Antonio Spurs, which I think is a respect to the uniqueness of Victor Wanbanjama. Now, I'm skeptical of the Spurs because of the inexperience that they have. I think this is going to be a big year for them in which they will gain that experience. And if you ask me to predict a year from now, who's going to win the NBA title? I'd probably say the San Antonio's birth. But I can't do it right now. And then there's a drop off. Oh, okay. The Celtics are at 8%. The nuggets are at 7%. The pistons are at 4%. So you're like, oh, wow, the Knicks got disrespected. Have they're only at 2%? No. Well, they're at 1%? No.

Not a single So you're like, oh, wow, the Knicks got disrespected. Have they're only at 2%? No.

Well, they're at 1%? No.

Not a single player.

Not a single player.
