Summary

Gio feels Karl-Anthony Towns doesn't embody the superstar mentality, lacking visible disappointment or fire. Boomer countered that Towns simply had an off night and couldn't find his rhythm. Before Jerry's update, Gio expressed disbelief at people falling for fake Adam Schefter reports on X. Jerry's update featured Mike Breen's call of the Knicks' Game 2 loss, with Thibs discussing the need to win differently. They then played a clip of the Clippers' play-by-play announcer, whom they found unauthentic, and mentioned Shaq abruptly leaving the set due to olive oil consumption. Mavericks GM Nico Harrison stated he underestimated Luka's importance to fans. Jazz Chisholm homered in their loss to Cleveland, while the Mets defeated the Phillies, with Jesse Winker and Lindor hitting home runs, improving their home record to 10-1. Jalen Milroe discussed his relationship with Malik Nabers on Kay Adams' show. Gio expressed enthusiasm for the Giants potentially drafting Jalen Milroe with their second pick, citing Todd McShay's assessment of him as the best running quarterback prospect ever evaluated.
