the playoffs. We just mentioned it. The Knicks are a team full of guys they got in free agency

or trades. They've gotten hot. I think a lot of people thought the Celtics were going to be there.

It's going to be the Knicks Cavs. Knicks, I guess, are a favorite in this series. How do you see

that one playing out? Yeah, I'd agree with that. I think the Knicks, you know, you do wonder about they've been off for

almost more than a week, and you do wonder about Rust versus Rust is a kind of classic

puzzle in the playoffs sometimes. But, you know, I do think the healthier team tends to over

seven games take control of the series.

And while Cleveland's sharper, because they just played last night and they've played two

seven games series, I do think the Knicks probably are going to win that series.

You know, they have home court.

I think the way that Towns has been playing the last couple of series is really kind of

unlock some things for the Knicks that make them less dependent on Jalen Brunson.

Like they don't need him to score 40 to win a playoff game now if Towns is facilitating

and creating offense for other people and having Ananoi back,

right? He missed the end of the last series with the hamstring, but he's had 10 days off,

12 days off. And you don't know with hamstrings, like they're wonky and they could come back

at any moment. But if he is

healthy, I think that he's a difference maker for them in that series. Isn't that kind of crazy,

though, that like JP just said, that the starting five are all guys that they acquired in trades

and they didn't draft any of them? That's kind of crazy. Well, it's New York.

I don't know, but props to whoever their GM is.

They are on a slightly different plane than the Wizards are.
