Summary
Jonathan Macri, the Dean of Knicks Film School, joins Stugotz to break down the New York Knicks' stunning 2-0 lead over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals. Macri reflects on the emotional roller coaster of being a lifelong Knicks fan, including the moment he felt furthest from ever seeing this team reach the Finals. Plus, why this postseason has become a legacy-defining run for Karl-Anthony Towns, a hilarious soundbite from Macri's live watchalong, and a round of One Table.
