Hello and welcome to another edition of the Nix Film School pregame show.

My name is Andrew Claudio, aka GMAC, and it's time to preview the next upcoming matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

A bit of a different twist on the episode you're about to hear. It is not hosted by me.

I went on the Chase Down podcast, which is the official Cleveland Cavaliers podcast. It was on their YouTube channel.

If you want to go check it out there. And I completed a home and home because Justin Rowan of

the Chase Down came on our show back in, I want to say that was back in January when the Knicks

played the Cavaliers last. But I went on with them for this episode. There's a good chance. There's going to be

And then the ramp back up for a big guy like that on an ankle, I just have no idea what to expect,

whether it's back for game two, back for game five, gone for the whole series, back for game one.

You know, so i approach this conversation with

justin and with carter as if there's going to be no julius randall in this series because

um that's just that that's the perspective i have right now hopefully i'm wrong that this isn't a

three or six week injury and then he's not gone for the season. And look,

another element is that I'm curious to see what this team does. They face adversity all season.

And every time they have, they have shown us something. So now with this new adversity that
