Summary

The Knicks are interviewing Mike Brown and Taylor Jenkins for their head coaching vacancy, with one caller criticizing Leon Rose for the team's current state and another suggesting Jay Wright, though he's not a candidate. Meanwhile, the Yankees were swept in Boston, a series that saw Rafael Devers traded to the Giants after homering. The Mets also suffered a three-game losing streak, fulfilling Mike Francesa's prediction to Frank The Tank, and now head to Atlanta. In other sports news, JJ Spaun won the US Open, and Fanatics selected 50 regular people to compete against professional athletes. A caller also proposed Allan Houston or John Starks as potential Knicks coaches.
