Yeah. With one post where you can run up whoever it man can’t even see my damn face. What is up y’all? It’s your boy CK. I am CK 2 K here back for another play by play brought to you by CGeek here on the channel. Shout to you guys. Sorry about the little bit of a wait. Had some uh had some final touches that I had to do outside with the um Christmas things and whatnot. And it took me like 2 3 minutes more than I expected. But we are here today and I appreciate you guys for rocking with us. Shout out to my mods and members for being in the building right here. Russell Whiskey holding it down. First one in.

Sorry. Let’s go, man. We got to bounce back. We got to bounce back today after how things went yesterday against the Boston Celtics. We hate losing to the Boston Celtics, but the Knicks need to write that ship here tonight against a lowly Charlotte Hornets, a team that is full of confusion from the top down. LaMelo Ball possibly being traded at some point and whatnot. We don’t know what they’re doing and the Knicks need to take advantage of that. Man, it was really frustrating cuz I really wanted the Knicks to get that dub off of the Mikuel Bridges game of the season. Bro could not miss down the stretch, but unfortunately we went away from a little bit too much in that fourth quarter. Celtics took advantage and we took the L. So, we got to turn this thing around tonight. Shout out to you. I see you. I see you, Cap. What up, bro? Um, what’s good, CK? What up, Immaculate Addicts? Hope you’re good, man. CK, let’s really talk about what we all want to talk about. You’re talking about a little bit of uh of news that might be through the the the way the what’s it called? The um the grape vine today. Little bit of news, man. If you weren’t if you weren’t entwined, if you weren’t paying attention, there’s some crazy crazy news going on in the NBA. News that could possibly concern the New York Knicks. Maybe, maybe it won’t, maybe it will. And that news is that the Clippers told Chris Paul to stay home. That’s right. The Clippers looking to move on from Chris Paul. And you know, No, I’m just kidding. Hold on a minute. I’m playing. I’m playing. I’m playing. That That That was crazy though, by the way. That was absolutely out of pocket for the Clippers to do that. That man decided to go back to the Clippers, the team that, you know, he was the star, the superstar of in the the lob city era, and this is how they do in CP3. Absolutely insane. But no, we know the real the real news, and that is that the Bucks are rumored to be looking to shop Giannis Anttompo and the Knicks could be in the mix. Now, again, take it all with a grain of salt. lot of reports here and there. Um, but the main thing to me, the main thing to me is how we’ve talked about all season long how it feels off that Towns has been playing as off as he has been playing. And you got to wonder if this has been known knowledge ahead of like before the news or reports came out officially today. You gotta wonder if that has been in his camp, if it has been a conversation and it has leaded it has led to the way that he has played to start this season. We’ll see. I don’t know. But again, I’m not I’m not confirming or denying anything. All we do know is it is has been reported today. Let me see if I can pull up the tweet. But as been reported today, Bucks and Giannis ready to part ties are the Knicks the one that they go to. CP1 Yes. Come to New York. CP3 to New York. He said, “Psych.” Ah, what? Nobody want Nobody Nobody was thinking about the CP3 news. That’s not what we were talking about. Yeah. Crazy stuff, man. Crazy stuff. Crazy crazy crazy stuff. Um, I don’t know. I just, you know, it’d be it’d be very awesome if we got that Lakers type treatment, you know, where we in two seasons and in two successful seasons, we get gifted a marquee player um by a rival team in quotes. A rival meaning that they’re an East Coast team looking to do the same thing that we’re trying to do. It’d be odd that mid-season that they decide to send Giannis all our way. But hey, man, maybe they just want to be, you know, do their due diligence with Giannis and send him here. I don’t know. I don’t know what to believe. But it is pretty crazy, right? Pretty crazy the timing of everything. What up, Russell Whiskey. Oh boy. CK2K ain’t going to be no announcements tonight. Every bad play trade cat. Yeah. Here’s the For those that didn’t hear it, here’s Winhorse with the uh soundbite a few hours ago. This is crazy, right? This is absolutely crazy. Here we go. And this already happened. Shams reported this a couple of months ago. You you can put out whatever verbiage you want around it about whether he requested it or asked for it or hinted at it, but he basically said, “I want to be a Nick. Can you make me a Nick?” And they had discussions for some period of days and that those tra those talks didn’t progress. And so they dropped it and he reported to camp and tried to focus on it. The He said, he says he we need to hear from the GM now that Giannis is too fat. We need it, bro. Sham’s also tweeting out, uh, this is again, this was all hours ago. Just catching up those who do not are not aware. Uh, by the way, the game has not started yet. Allan is Oh, no. I got Let me refresh refresh. The game has not started yet. Getting the starting lineups and whatnot. Here, let me move this away so I can see and keep track of that. Uh, Twitch, I’m going to get to you guys in a second. Um, yeah, Sham’s uh tweeting out earlier that uh Justin Yanso and his agent, Alex, not even going to try and say his last name, have started conversations with the Milwaukee Bucks about the twotime NBA MVP’s future and discussing whether his best fit is staying or elsewhere. Sources tell ESPN a resolution is expected in the coming weeks. Now, here’s the thing, man. That means so many things. Now, again, I’m not trying to be the the bearer of bad news, not trying to be Mr. Negative, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it equals trade, you know what I mean? Um, what Windhorse was talking about was the rumor that happened in the offseason about Giannis directly telling Milwaukee, “Get me to the Knicks some way, somehow.” Obviously, we know how that turned out. Um, but it’s interesting that this is leaking at this part of the season. Will that end up that move end up happening? um do we have enough that they’re going to want? Do we bring in another another team, which is probably the most likely situation if they decide to go that direction? And also, you gota you got to ask, you know, regardless of what we feel as fans and whatnot, you got to ask far as Leon Rose, is he willing to take that I want to say L. Well, it’s not really an L, but take that hit that you you trade the to make the trade you did for Carl Ly Towns last year and only in one year’s time you decide to then try and flip away from it, but you’re only getting a two-time MVP in the process. So, I don’t think anybody would necessarily be mad at you, but you know, just the the schematics of it. Are you willing to make that kind of move? Uh, look, I said it. I I I I thought I saw it as I saw it all as a smoke screen. So, I told you guys I wasn’t going to take it serious. I wasn’t going to talk about it, but now we’re seeing this. We’re hearing these these uh developments. Simple question that you’re asking, CK, if you would you do it. The Knicks play the Charlotte Hornets tonight. And we’re going to get into that right now. We’re seeing Mike Brown. We have our starting five of Deuce McBride. Uh yes, I would do the move. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I you know I I’m I’m rooting for Cat because he’s wearing a Knicks uniform. But you know if you had to make me choose between Cat and Giannis Hand Dumpo. Let’s be real ladies and gentlemen. Let’s be real. But we’ll see what happens. A lot to digest here. They said several weeks time. We’ll see. It might end up not nothing coming from it and it being an offseason situation. But interesting that that news has leaked and come out. Jaylen Brunson trying to get things started as he misses the mid-range jumper. LaMelo Ball. A lot of lot of name a lot of rumors around him as well. speculation. The the terrible um look for LaMelo as he was taken out in the final uh minutes of their last game where they were trailing by what 18 or some odd like that took LaMelo Ball out the game and then they the Hornets came back and won behind Colin Ston and you know LaMelo Ball and John Morant guys that are you know talented guards that just seem to not be fitting in their current spot. Trey Young as well. So, a lot of trade rumors along around a lot of superstars. And there goes Carl Anthony Towns who gets away with saves his own play and gets the fast break dunk. It’s an interesting start to the year, man. It’s an interesting start to the year, ladies and gentlemen. Let me refresh to make sure you guys can see the score. My bad. I realize the score is not there, but the Knicks are up two zero. Shout out to everybody in the chat, whether you’re watching on Twitch, Twitter, or on YouTube. It is appreciated. Can for the three. Caniple, canle, however you say it, doesn’t matter. It’s a miss. Josh Hart with the rebound. Can I get the box score up for us to look at here? Um, while the box score is refreshing, let me look at the chat. Uh, Leon traded for Cat to get Giannis CK2K. That’s 4D chess. Completely agree. It’s just, you know, in that those the circles and the insiders and what they’re going to say, you know, you you made this big investment in getting towns and then you immediately swap it. But I’m with you. I see that as, you know, it was just a part one of a bigger plan, honestly, if that’s the way it goes. Um, yeah. I don’t know. We’ll see. We’ll see, man. We’ll see. Uh, my semicconcussed self will drive Cat to Milwaukee myself. Let’s get it done, CK. Hard. Hell yes. Give me 12 beers. Oh, yeah. Chat, I already know John Morant is moving. I agree. I think Jaw does move. Uh, Ball Bro is about to re be reunited. Yeah, I like Lavar’s plan, man. I think that they should all just go and play together in in in uh on the Clippers because what what the hell else does that team got? Rain Hills, I see you. LaMelo and John game has been trash. Yeah, I look mindsets, man. I’m telling you, I feel like a lot of it has to do with their situations. Uh you no one will ever get me to say LaMelo Ball is not a good player, but it’s you know I feel like the combination of being in Charlotte and then just LaMelo Ball with that playground type play style, it’s just not a good combination where it leads to the conversations that are being had right now. Canelo off the take. By the way, both free throws down from Carl Town. Town’s looking to make a statement here today after the news that’s most likely surrounding his name came out with Giannis Ando cuz obviously if that trade is made, it would have to be centered around Carl Anthony Towns if it is going to be with the New York Knicks. Um why where’s where’s the scoreboard? I don’t see the scoreboard. We got the scoreboard bet. Where’s the box score? Let’s get that going. There we go. We’re looking at the Hornets. Look at the Knicks. There we go. All right, we’re with it. 34 is the score. Knicks up by one. It has been all towns to get us going here offensively. If you miss it, the starting lineup right now, Jaylen Brunson, Josh Hart, Deuce, McBride as Hart gets a nice layup off of the baseline. Uh, Deuce, Hart, Brunson, Bridges, and Carl Anthony Town. Same starting five that it has been for a week and some change. Now, LaMelo with the floater. Little Strong rebounded by Towns. Let’s see what Twitch is saying, man. Um, dirty how they did Chris Paul facts BKNY. Crazy, right? And we do need this dub. What up, SCM? Uh, what are your thoughts on the Giannis situation? We kind of talked about it just now. Arms. So, I’m Chad after like 6 months and that’s all you say to me. I need more emotion. I need you jumping up and down. Arms, I’m glad to see you. But you know what I need from you? Consistency. So feeling his mutual arms. I do appreciate you though. Nice take there for James who was was inserted into the starting lineup a few games ago and been doing a solid job since starting for the Charlotte Hornets. The rookie wing. Deuce McBride looking to continue or get himself back on track. He had probably one of his lowest scoring games last night. Missing the three ball rebounded by the Hornets and the Knicks going the other way. Three ball by Canuple. That one. No good. And sails out of bounds. 65 is the score. Magic said, “Damn, I think that’s fair.” How about that? I think that’s fair. He wants me to have a whole band stand uh introduction for him. But I need consistency. I need consistency. Josh from the corner three. That one no good. Rebounded by Miles Bridges. Um Brunson is drunk. Down goes Brunson, by the way. And he draws a charge. So, one way or another it works. LaMelo getting traded. I think John Moran’s probably the most likely. I don’t know if the Hornets pull the trigger because here’s the thing. Where does he get traded? The only trades that make sense is if these guys get traded for each other. If I were if you were to ask me what would what I think would work, I think you do like a Trey Young for LaMelo ball trade. Send LaMelo to to Atlanta. Um I I feel like, you know, you get a little bit more hype, but it’s a similar player between LaMelo and Trey. Um, I I think that John Morant I I’m sticking to my guns. I think um Brooklyn because of where they’re at, they go gunhole and try and get themselves a big superstar, young superstar kind of guy and send the farm to get John Morant. So Brooklyn picks him up. But I don’t know, man. I just don’t know what the real estate is for some of these guys, you know? as Brunson trying to back down. The rookie fadeaway jumper clean as JB looking to turn things around after an ugly night of basketball yesterday. No, Brooklyn gets nothing. Look, man, I’m just putting on my GM hat. I don’t want it to happen. I’m just put my GM. It’s the only thing that makes sense. I don’t know where else he goes. Towns pulling from three on trans in the transition, excuse me. rebounded by LaMelo, sending it up to Miles Bridges. The thing is though, like though the his teammates, LaMelo Ball’s teammates really love LaMelo Ball, but the problem is they’re just it’s just winning is not uh a solution here with the way that this team is built. So, if they’re really trying to turn things around, you know, they don’t have that belief in LaMelo, they might have to, you know, get the guys they want to get. But, yeah, I would I I think a Trey Young Lamelo ball swap works both ways. They both slightly get a little bit of a change, but the problem is everybody’s so injuryprone except for Muel Bridges. Mr. Iron Man missing that three ball though. Rebounded by Deuce finding Bridges. Great activity there between Deuce and Bridges. That’s the new law firm until OG comes back. Deuce uh stepping in for OG. The new law firm is now uh ran by Deuce and Bridges. Check it out. Three ball is up. Three ball no good. Rebounded by Hart. Both teams just letting that thing fly and it feels like it’s constant movement in this game. I could hear the F F lamelo chance now cuz he’s a Hawk. I can see it. Brunson with the floater. No good. Rebounded by Towns. Look at how active all of a sudden this Carl Anthony Towns guy is. Look at the activity. Does he not want to be traded? Uh her CP wasn’t talking to Lou. Lou not type of coach to play out. Uh the game What? What do you mean not type of coach to play out? What do you mean by that? Uh the game in Boston was a fluke. Jaylen Brown needs uh needs just for men. Dcoan Tiller is [ __ ] up. Dcoan, that’s why he he he forced the Knicks to wear our our black uniforms. And look at Towns. Another good take. But that one no good. Towns really active here today. But been 50/50. And the steal by the Knicks. Towns full head of steam gets the fast break dunk. Not sure how many of those he had. I don’t know if y’all saw the dude in the red hoodie and the black skully behind Towns after that dunk, but there was no emotion out of him after Towns made that bucket. But he’s clearly a Knicks fan. And I think that’s the temperature right now with Knicks fans and Carl Anthony Towns. But I thought that was funny. He clearly got on a scully with New York on it, but Town just had that fast break dunk. He just looked all serious looking at the play. I don’t know if anyone else caught that, but caught at the the the back of my eye. Hey, I thought that was funny. Go Brooklyn. Go. Somebody get Somebody get Somebody get Fro, bro. Somebody get him out, man. Bro, your CKW character is merging into real life cuz you must be drunk. You must be They’re literally looking for Cat on every possession. This team is funny. It’s facts, man. You see it how many shots Town’s got up already. Yeah, he’s already got five shots up. Eight points in one quarter. Not mad at it, but where is Ben? The Swamp Dragons getting nothing. CK Bridges induce the new chicken spot. All right. Okay. Okay. Yo, Bridges. Bridges already sound like a dope chicken spot. Bridges. Oh, that dude sound like a chicken spot, man. Shout out to everybody in the chat, man. As we are watching another playbyplay, second of a backto back. Knicks looking to bounce back after the sorry loss we took to the Boston Celtics. Muel Bridges did everything he could, but we just could not get the job done. Um, I need Mike Brown to tighten his second quarter up. Yeah, we talked about it yesterday. I personally with the change I would make is I would keep Bridges out there with Towns with that second unit as opposed to Hart in Towns. Um, but we’ll see. We’ll see if he runs the same five for what’s been what the fifth fourth night in a row. Uh, that has cost us the lead every single time. But we’ll see. Right now, the Knicks still trying to build upon their lead with 528 to go, trying to elevate that stock for that trade. You uh you John Morance’s uh manager, man. He said uh the one said, “How many town How many times Towns went to the basket and didn’t yell foul?” They said he playing aggressive tonight. That’s what they saying. He said, “It’s okay, CK. If Cat is heartbroken about leaving, I’ll take him to a bar on the way to Milwaukee by myself. Beer him and Shirley Temples. It’ll be all right for sure. It’s chaos.” Hakee, what you got, brother? It’s going to be something crazy. Buckle up. Giannis will be a Nick by February 1st. Every player on the Knicks can be included in a trade except for OG and I guess Brunson. Oof. Okay, you took it too far. You had me with the February 1, but then you went too far. You kept talking. Hakee the Dream, I appreciate the $5 super, but not everybody is included. You’re not taking my possible defensive player of the year player in Mikuel Bridges. He is not available. He is not available. You’re not taking my young gun in Deuce McBride. He is not available. Downs and whatever else, fine, but not everybody is available. Yaboo, just show him the Philadelphia highlight film and we’ll say that we lost the Knicks highlight film and see if he can be a part of it. Towns, by the way, going for up for his fourth opportunity. This time he will get the bucket. Towns scoring in the paint and another steal for the Knicks. The Knicks right now active hands 16-7 looking to try and find the open man. Yu extra pass to Bridges. Bridges going right after uh Paul. I don’t know who Clarkson was. I have no idea who Clarkson was trying to fake out there. There was nobody there but proceeds to shoot the three and misses. Kon said I rebuke that super chat. Shout out to the dream. Hakee going to always speak his mind. He going to speak his truth. He don’t care about if people are going to agree or disagree. Hakee going to speak his truth and I respect it. Uh 16-7 Nicks forcing another miss. Nine-point lead for the Nickers. Towns who has had his fingerprints on every play it feels like to start this first quarter. Yaboo steps into the three ball. That’s no good. Rebounded by the big fella in Charlotte. Nasty hoops from Cat. Lol. Jordan told Cat, “You better go. I’m not leaving New York.” Jordan Wood said, “I will be damned if you catch me out there in Milwaukee.” Jordan Woods lowkey the best part of the trade, man. Hey, 1610 is the score, though. Colin Sexy getting ready to check in. Nick’s holding on to a six-point lead. Bridges back over to Clarkson. Clarkson, he desperately needs to turn his luck around cuz he’s had backto back terrible games. Pass to Clarkson. Can’t get the floor to fall. Everybody trampling and stumbling over Carl Anthony Towns. LaMelo ball picked up by Bridges. Crosscourt to James. James gets to to the Man, there’s so many rookies on this Charlotte Hornets team. LaMelo fires from three. That’s no good. His three-point percentage this season has been awful. Awful. Woeful. I need somebody to save my boy LaMelo. Man, look at Brunson with the feet work. rookie getting a little crash course on how to guard that type of star. Brunson getting the finish. Uh BBL needs to join the season. Uh Mickey can’t be traded till February. Uh all what what extension forbids his extension forbids him getting traded. He stays put. Don’t worry about all that. Don’t worry about that. He’s just not available in general as right on Q. Mikuel Bridges is missing that three ball though. Hornets looking like the bad news Bears of the Hardwood. We saying all that, but the Knicks not really doing much to put them away. LaMelo Ball with another miss. Nice. Oh, what aggression there. Excuse me. What hustle there and Clarkson dupes them out. Gets the easy lay. Shout out to Russell Whiskey. Channel mod and member with the $5 super. What you got for me? There are two types of Knicks fans. One, fans of Cat. Two, fans of Cat’s trade value. Either way, root for Cat. Okay. As as Mikuel Bridges gets really high up on the dunk, had to check to see if he hurt himself on the way up, but Bridges with the transition bucket. That’s a good point. Uh, Russell Whiskey, that’s that’s a really funny way to put it. You know what I mean? Either way, they’re paying attention to Carl Anthony Town is what Russell Whiskey is saying. Whether you are watching him because you are a fan of his game or you’re watching him because you want him traded because of that trade value one way or another. He says you are watching Carl Anthony Towns. He ain’t lying. He ain’t lying. It’s a funny way to put it, but he ain’t lying. Yeah. The Bridges nosebleleed Sully kills me, bro. That time he was check he checked the side of his head. He’s like, “Oh, shoot. It’s too damn hot. Speaking of which, you uh for those like myself who miss the Mikuel Bridges, you know, Sy, the one that I do on 2K, he told a story about why he stopped doing it on uh Brunson and Hearts podcast. Hake Dream appreciate the $2 super. Take it away. A new Bodega is opening up in Milwaukee soon. Man, when that news came out today, I’m like, I already know what today’s uh playbyplay is going to be like. I already know. I already know what this playbyplay is going to be like. I I already knew what this playbyplay was going to be like, bro. Trade Big Zesty Giannis needs to pull up. I don’t know, man. I I mean I No, I don’t know. That sounds like I don’t like that. That’s not what I’m trying to say. I’m just I’m just having a hard time believing that it’s going to happen. Why? Why does Milwaukee do business with us? I guess you can make the argument that they’re still getting an allNBA kind of guy, an all-star level guy, a number one in some people’s minds kind of guy with Towns, but like I I’m if I’m Milwaukee, it just makes no sense. We just signed Miles Turner. You trying to put a combo of Turner and Towns? That sounds like a terrible buddy cop movie, bro. Turner and Towns, man. Turner and Towns. I don’t know, bro. But hey, hopefully, you know who, somebody said it uh in the playbyplay yesterday. You know, Nico Harrison is available. Maybe they pick him up for a consultation and he, you know, he gives him some great advice and then poof, Giannis is a nick. He says, “Kh, you’re right. Sorry, I’m talking too much. I’m saying You’re right. You’re right. You’re right. You’re right. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. You’re right. Somebody for the Bucks will be listening is like, you know, that’s a good point. That one YouTuber brings up a good point. Turner and Towns, bro. TNT. God, it sounds like a nightmare. Turner and Towns, man. TNT. We don’t care. CK Yiannis equals championships. We want race. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I I’m Here’s here. This is how I work. This is this this is the kind of Knicks fan I am. I even though we are still good, I still expect bad things to happen to us because it’s just the way the NBA treats us. You know what I mean? So, I’m looking at it at as a buck. I’m looking at it from the Bucks like for sure I do what you got to do to get Yiannis. I’m looking at it like man all these rooms going to come out and then they just going to clown us and say that it didn’t make no sense and we couldn’t do that. I’m just ready for I’m ready for the let down. So, I’m not allowing myself to get to that that level of hypeness that you guys are all at right now because I’m just I don’t want to be let down. As Brunson fires a three ball right over Turner, I’m sorry, Turner Bridges missing it terribly the dream with another $2 super. Interested to see what he’s going to say. And look at the bumbling stumbling three ball coming up. Giannis and Og are very close. family connections. Giannis and Og are very close. Didn’t know that. If that’s a true fact. Didn’t know that. He said, “F the other side. We want Yiannis.” You got it. Brunson though drawing contact off of Miles Bridges saying he’s good. Making sure he’s all right before he gets back up. But he does tell the Knicks that he’s good. Walking it off before he gets three free throws. Nick’s doing a great job at drawing fouls at the three-point line. I got to say, I feel like I don’t know what the stat is on that. And yeah, Miles Bridges bronson didn’t even really contort himself. Didn’t really move. That was a straightup shot. Bridges tiptoes into his landing space. And you know, we saw what happened with Bridges yesterday that this one to me gives me more of a technical foul vibes than the one that Bridges got yesterday. technical flagrant foul, excuse me, than the one Bridges got yesterday because Brunson is just straight up and Bridges just slowly creeps into his landing space. That’s a flagrant to me. But we’ll see what the referees come back with. Giannis doesn’t guarantee a ring, but he ends any excuses for non around here. CK, I’mma be real. That’s where my ignorance will come in. If that if that that tall Greek man steps into Madison Square Garden as a Nick and all we gave up is give up his Carthy talents and the rest of our roster is is as as constructed, give up trades, I don’t care. I don’t care if we give up picks, whatever, but the majority of this roster is is as constructed and we just get that big that big big Greek fella. Yeah, championship, bro. What you mean? Yes, championship. Peace and love. Yes, championship. And it is going to be sorry back to the game. It will be ele elevated to a flagrant three. So flagrant three to a flagrant foul. So Brunson will get three free throws and the ball backto-back knights of Knicks are going to be the beneficiary of this play. But yeah, man. Peace and love. Peace and love. Peace and love, man. That’s why look, I I am I am keeping I’m keeping Milwaukee on like I’m not hanging up the phone. I’m just going to keep them and I’ll mute myself, but I’m making sure we never hang up until a deal is done. Uh, fact CK, I’m not going to jump out the window on Giannis. Won’t happen. All right. I just I I need I need I’ll be excited when it happens. But if it does happen, I don’t know, man. Couple of dogs and and Giannis and Bruna together. By the way, I don’t think we’re talking about it. Hug Porty did check in a few plays back uh with Yabu Cellle going to the bench as well as Towns. Oh, you know what it is. Oh, we do not have Mitchell Robinson tonight. So, Hucky elevating in minutes tonight again. Second game of a backto-back. So, no Mitchell Robinson. So, Hook Porty looking to take that spot. Deuce McBride. I feel like I haven’t hit this button yet, but Deuce McBride steps into a three. and doing what he’s been doing really well the last few nights, causing the miss by Colin Sexton. The New York Knicks arguably one of their best defensive quarters of the season. I would like the stat on that, but that this has to be arguably one of our best defensive quarters. Correct me if I’m wrong. We hold them to 12 points in the quarter while we score 27 and the Knicks up by 15. The Knicks, we not really even paying attention to this game because everybody is crazy about the Giannis rumor going around right now. And the Knicks is like, “All right, bet. Handle business.” But to speaking of in the same uh uh conversation of Giannis Carl Anthony Towns the one holding it down for the New York Knicks today having a monumental quarter with all those rumors coming out. Towns out firing and playing his best game. He has four he’s four for eight from the field 10 points, seven rebounds, two assists. Big cat looking to make himself known. There go my boy Earl Smith Jr. and the Ultra Lounge in MSG. One of my all-time favorite Knicks. I don’t care what anybody says. Y’all can meme him all you want. J.R. Smith is one of my all-time favorite Nicks and he’s a lot higher than I I’m willing to admit. Giannis is like Gang Wanoto bleed at KG facts. Uh, sensational sensational sub 500 teams are the most stress-free games. We don’t have to play D. They just couldn’t say that last year. Last year we used to make those sub 500 teams look top tier. Uh, Huck looks good out there. What has Mike Brown been doing? Doo Marie, what up? Sexton is so annoying. The I’m I’m so glad somebody else feels that way. I feel like so many Knicks fans are fans of Colin Sexon and they’ve been wanting Sexon. Colin Saxon annoying as hell. Maybe that’s what we needed. He probably one of those guys that we would end up loving over here. But yeah, playing against Colin Saxon is just always mad annoying. Always. Demon Pome in the greatest shooting big cap for the Greek boy. Who says no? Now he’s demon, huh? Now he’s a demon. Anyways, we having fun, man. We having fun. Big news that came up today. Big rumors that and speculation to come out today. So, Knicks fans all around all over the place with their thoughts on it. And my god, what a small lineup has Mike Brown rolled out here today. Deuce McBride. Yo, this lineup is tiny. Deuce McBride, Tyler Kohic, Jordan Clarkson, Josh Hart, and Carl Anthony Towns. Appreciate the sub. Now, mind you, the Hornets are not much bigger on the other side, but we’re going to see here as Towns goes right after yo. Okay, he gets fouled. Towns getting fouled. They’re not entirely sure how he would have missed that, but Towns does get fouled and he will go to the free throw line for two free throws. So, I said at the top, you know, I would what I wanted to see in the second quarter is Towns and Bridges out there together, but Brown sticking to the Hart and Towns combo, which I’m not mad at. I just again, I just wish we can get more Bridges and Colet time together there. There’s no way that there’s no statistician, no analytic guy backstage or or sorry that on this training staff that has not brought it to any of these coaches attention that when Kolic and Bridges are on the floor together, magic happens on a regular basis. Why do we not get enough of those two on the floor together? But I digress. I digress. Both free throws down by Carl Anthony Towns by the way. Colin Sex handing it off to Bridges. Bridges step back. He thinks about it. He pulls. Can’t get the three ball to fall. Also, by the way, the Hornets missing a big piece as Brandon Miller is not active to go here tonight as well as Duce just gets an easy one to fall. Knicks right now playing with their food as they should be because this is just light work after the nightmare we had to go through against Boston. But hopefully the Knicks don’t get a little too comfortable at any point in this one. Look at Miles Bridges with the nice spin and make no Brandon Miller over there for the Hornets. LaMelo Ball on the bench right now. So Miles Bridges the one holding it down here in this second quarter. I’m convinced the people hanging on to Cat was trying to keep Julius. Interesting take. Colin Ston though. What a take. Strong move. Strong finish with Deuce McBride on his hip. Layup goes down. 1831. Colick to Hart. Hart firing the three ball. That’s no good. But shout out to Empire with the $10 super. Here comes Nikita to read it away. Nikita, you not going to read it? Nikita says she’s not reading it, so I’ll read it. Melo was pissed. Wait, what? When LeBron took J.R. Smith and Shumpert and me, too. Empire felt the type of way about that trade. I did, too. I I that that trade hurt my heart. I don’t say they they took me, but I hated that trade. Um, and the Melo’s piss. Care to elaborate? Empire. Appreciate you though. Uh 34-21 is the score. 9:30 remaining in this first half. Towns going right after the rookie. And look look as aggressive as Towns has been. I’m not telling him to stop. I’m not telling him to not do what he is doing, but it it feels like he’s just throwing whatever at the wall and hope that it sticks. And I I I I like it that way. But it’s just so interesting cuz I’m just not used to towns keeping up this level of attack. And I think that was a long two. Do I reward that three? I’m going to reward the three. They did. So I’m going to reward the three, too. Deuce McBride for a corner three. It looked like his foot was on the line, but the NBA rewarded him a three. So I’m going to reward him a three. 910 remains. But yeah, man. My man Cat just throwing whatever he can. Gets a steal right there. Jordan Clarkson looking around. Clarkson looking to try and get to somebody. Kick was ahead of the pack. Gets it over to Hart in the corner. Hart feeding Towns again. Towns draws the contact. And one. Carl Anthony Towns going for a 50 piece today. And he’s about to look at all you guys like, are you not entertained? In hopes that we forget that we’re playing the Hornets. I hated that shumper trade. I think a lot of Knicks fans that was so stupid. Nope, that was Phil Jackson. Yep. Can I ask how we feel about the entire Giannis thing? Devel just stick around the chat long enough. You will find out. Anthony Gale. Appreciate the uh Marcus said CK if the three is overturned, you got to play the 007 sound in rever. I don’t have that. I don’t have those facilities, man. I don’t have the facilities for that matter. Shout out to 220 in the chat. Man, I I you know, the second game of a backtoback. We’re going up against the Hornets after a big loss to the Celtics. Expected tonight to be more of a chill night, but you know, Giannis news definitely changes things up. And now Nick Knicks fans are all in a tizzy one way or another. But Nicks up 18. I like this. Hopefully this is a lead that we maintain all the way throughout. Miles Bridg is just missing terribly there. And yeah, this the Hornets right now really, you know, I want to give the Knicks defense some sort of credit, but really the Hornets just don’t look, you know, intellectual right now on the floor. But Tyler Kolick again, the Rock from Clarkson. Clarkson back to Carl Anthony Towns. Nice pass to the driving hard. Hard extra pass to Yabu. Yaboo to Kulk. The ball is moving. Extra pass. Clarkson. Will he make him pay? That was beautiful ball movement. But Clarkson from three just hasn’t been hitting this year. 3921 18 point game. Three ball going up. That one no good. Rebounded by Yabusle. CK. You right. They really not cheering for Tails. I’m telling you, I saw that dude in the red, clearly a Knicks fan. Hey, he he did not give a damn about that nice play from town. I’m telling you, man. Towns though, double team. Goes up for it. It goes goes down and a 20point lead. Carl Anthony Towns 16 points in the first half. Coincidence? I think not. Look at that. 24 points in the paint to the Hornets 10. A lot of that to Carl Anthony Towns McNeely on the drive. McNeely goes all the way, draws no contact, but will get the score back to an 18point game. RGT, what’s good? How is this hardest team in the NBA? Amen, brother. But let’s let’s slow and roll before the Knicks start to nick. You know what I mean? Uh, but Kolic hit that three. Kick hit a three. Man, we must have been talking. Did I really miss a colic 3b mills? Damn, I am I am the I am I am see got me all riled up. How would Giannis look in this offense minutes ago? God Ali. Yeah, I’m looking at chat. I’m so sorry. My bad. My bad. My bad. I gota get I got I gota lock in, bro. My god. My god. I gota lock in. Ice is coming to close down the bodega and send it to Milwaukee. Crazy. Um, how would Yiannis look in the offense not being a three-point shooter or floor spacer? Uh, easy. He’s going to driving and dishing. I think he already does that pretty solid right now. Um, and some of the the Milwaukee Bucks uh in the championship run, championship team run, um, a lot of that was a lot of driving addition. Giannis though, I don’t know if he really needs to dish too much cuz driving you can’t really guard him on the drive, but um I think he’d be fine. I don’t think he needs to necessarily be a shooter to fit in that offense. Yeah, my bad. I missed the call three for real. Call a three and I missed it. Man, I am I need to lock in, man. I’m here paying too much attention to chat. Shout out to Empire with a $10 super. Hopefully this one gets read. Melo the locker room up when he found out. Melo tore the locker room up when he found out about the trade. Got you. Got you, Empire. Got you. Appreciate $10 Superman rare edition with a $5 super. Shout out to the supers in this chat today. What you got? What you got? What you got? If Carl Anthony Towns gets traded, what part of his game do you think fans will miss the most but rarely gave him credit for? because of who he would be traded for. I would say I would say the shooting. I know people be CK, he ain’t even shooting that well this year, right? But the mere fact that he had that ability, remember he shot from the logo from some times and hitting the three ball over on the Madison Square Garden spot and all that kind of stuff. You know, we’re not getting to get that with Giannis. That’s that’s going to be gone with Towns because Giannis not known to be a shooter. He’s trying to improve it, but not anywhere the shooter that Towns is. So, if I had to choose something, I think that’d be it. I think that’d be the thing that would be missed. Interesting question. Rare Edition, you little troll. Interesting question. Knicks up 4123. CK 2K is a terrible host because he missed the Tyler Kic three. So mad about it, so I owe you guys one of these. too busy paying attention and and conversating with chat. I missed it. So, Tyler Kohlick. Damn, I’m upset. I missed that. But the Knicks up 41-23, 18-point lead. Let’s get it, man. And yet, missed the Yahoo block. Missed it or uh choose to not talk about it cuz I did see that. Um, true. Nice. Word up. His automatic 12 boards for real. For real. That’s a good one, too, Marcus Miller. That’s a good one, too. But, you know, that’s a pretty good rebounder as well. Uh, cat falling on the floor like he’s the MSG mop. The the uh the the fabled MSG mop. Still not convinced that there really is an MSG mop. Here we go. Back in action. The Hornets trying to get something going. LaMelo Ball checks in. He What the hell? Oh my god. No way. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, he was fouled. Okay. Cuz Lord have mercy. I I thought that he just took that layup. He was fouled. All right. All right. I I’ll take it back. All right. Okay. Okay. No, he was fouled. He was fouled. He was fouled. He was fouled. He was fouled. LaMelo to the line for two free cuz if he wasn’t fouled, I was going, you know, and I am a LaMelo Ball fan, but I was a little worried about that play just now. Yeah. Are we sure he was fouled? You know. Sure. Sure. Sure. The referees called it a foul. Sure. Sure. Sure. Sure. Sure. What up to Cowboys? Mala said Malachi uh what Goodidge said, I’m still salty from last night. As you should. As you should. I’m too, bro. I hate that we’re one and one against them. And to Cowboys and follow up saying, “Me too. Beating up the Charlotte. Beating up Charlotte won’t cheer me up. Bridges finding Brunson. We got a new five by the way. Kolic, Brunson, Bridges, Hucky, and Yabusellle. Bridges seemed to have left his jump shot in Boston. Not really hitting the three ball here tonight. LaMelo trying to go right after him. Fouled by Bridges. Lot of Chad Dcoin agreeing with Malachi as well. Wisdom not a fan of this lineup. Vill still trying to question what happened. Last play with LaMelo Ball. Knicks up by 16. Orange is trying to cut into this lead and get it to as close to 10 as possible. That one no good. But what a put back there by the big fella. the rookie having himself a nice season he’s I’m a fan of him. I like him. I can’t say his last name consistently, but I do like his game. He gives me He gives me Teimu uh Palasaw vibes. Hopefully he he gets the the development to be that kind of a level, but he does give me those Teimu Palasol vibes. Tyler Koh says, “K, you going to see this one?” Two three balls for Tyler Kolic. That one goes down as well as Canuple tried to get the floater. That’s no good. And there he goes yet again. Another bucket in the post. 44-29. Knicks holding on to a 15point lead. 530 remains in this first half. The Knicks are just breezing through this. I right now it’s a it’s a battle of trading buckets between the two teams. Bridges now brings it to the mid-range. Can’t get that to fall either. Mikuel definitely left his shot in Boston. Two for five from the field as Muel with only four points. Three ball from LaMelo Ball and LaMelo gets that three to go down. 12-point game. Here comes the Hornets trying to get back in this one. Knicks fans a little too cocky and comfortable. Now they’re trying to strike back. Kick with a nice side. Oh, I wanted Col to go up with that. You got to go up with that one, Tyler. You got the whole left side to yourself. They’ll hand it off to him. He had two defenders there. What a move by Kolic. But terrible decision after the play and it turns into three more points from Canuple who has been a solid three-point shooter in throughout his rookie season. And just like that, back to single digits, 3544. Come on, Tyler. Got to go up with that man. Began West Teimu. Yeah, he’s like a teamu pow you know. hopefully develops and becomes full Palasaw. But right now, yeah, that that’s just the comp I see his game. Very similar vibes to what his game is, what what Pasawol’s game was like, but definitely a team version. Oh boy, here we go. As I said, don’t don’t gigg before they hatch cuz the New York Knicks love to let teams back in. They love to give them that. You sure? Give them that, hey, you want to try again? Nick’s going to do that. We’re doing it right now. Nine-point lead. Knicks still up. Hornets comeback, baby. This is unfortunate. Can’t lose to these guys. I I ain’t gonna say we going to lose. Oh yeah, man. Anytime I lose to Boston, my stomach hurts. Family show, the Red Sox. And screw Robert Craft. Don’t talk about Robert Craft. That those Patriots, man. They they got Drake May. Drake May looking like looking like the second coming of Jesus, man. Crazy, bro. This dude is MVP caliber in what? Second season. Sheesh. Patriots, man. Getting released on your retirement run is kind of crazy. We were talking about Chris Paul earlier. Yep. Yep. Crazy. But the Clippers Clippers just diabolical like that. I thought things were different with Balmer, but no, Balmer doing the sameish. Sidebar Nuggets are not messing around with the Pacers. Oh yeah. Got 8158 is that score. Damn. A lot of boring basketball on today around the NBA. Clippers and Hawks kind of close, but a lot of uh big leads across the board. The Blazers with a nine-point lead now on the the Cavaliers. I’m not sure if that stays, but the Blazers been playing pretty well this year. It’s been my league pass team to watch on the West Coast. Spurs up against the Magic. We like that. So, let’s go Spurs. Let’s go Blazers. Take out the Magic and the Cavaliers. Keep them down there. Let’s go. Clippers are messed up. Free taloo. Facts, man. NC State is about to play Auburn. Y’all tune in. Go Pack. No, we tuned into the Knicks, but appreciate that. Great advertising for NC State. Uh, they paying for Chanty’s bail money, man. I look, I don’t care if it’s controversial. I I I hope Chanty didn’t do it, bro. I I Chie Bells, I loved what he was doing there with Tra the Trailblazers. Terry Roier, you know, you know, take it, you know, it is what it is. Take it easy. He had a good career. But yeah, I really hope Chanty able to get out of that one. We’ll see. Not what you want if you’re Chanty. The team that he wanted to build playing better without him. I don’t know if they’ll play better. I think they were going to have a good season regardless. I I was afraid that the team was going to fall off because of the whole chanty situation, but you know, and Thiago Splitter even said that he didn’t really change much up from what they were working on as Brunson gets a nice strong finish there. Um, yeah, Thiago Splitter said that they didn’t really change much up from what Chanty and them were working on in in training camp and uh coming into the season. So, a lot of the ideas that’s going on right now is a lot of what Chanty was trying to push on, but Thiago putting a little bit of flare onto it. So, we’ll see, man. We’ll see. But that man got to stay out of jail first. And Saloon, who has been a early bust throughout his career, gets a three ball to fall there. Not his fault. The Hornets should not have drafted him where they drafted him. But Saloon has been meh. Back to an eight-point game. Knicks only up by eight after being up by as many as 23. Ball away for Towns. And Towns letting it fly every time he touches the rock. That time no good. Canel going right after Deuce McBride. McBride. What a move and what a finish by Canelo. Here come the Hornets. Hornets not going away without a fight. And there’s still so much time in this first half. Knicks just looking at a six-point lead now. Brunson has an open man. Waits a little while to get there. Finally does. Hart fires and lets him down. Another rebound for a baby pal though. He even moves like Pal, bro. Oh [ __ ] LaMelo Ball. The onelegged three pull. The only person to help the Knicks stay in this one is LaMelo Ball. He with us as they say. Josh Hart on the other side. Knicks need to score on this position. Towns left butt naked open and makes them pay. Carl Anthony Towns off to a monstrous start. 19 point first half for Big Bodega. That time LaMelo gets that floater to fall. Here we go. Eight-point game. Sorry, seven-point game. Brunson fires a three. That’s no good. Knicks making things a little bit easier on the Hornets if you ask me. As we’re taking some, you know, not particularly the best of looking shots. LaMelo ball falling away. Three ball. That’s no good. Rebounded again by the Knicks. Again, I can’t stress enough, LaMelo’s three ball percentage has not been great this season. Bridges has a full lane, but instead finds a wideopen Brunson. And Brunson lets Bridges down. Bridges had the lane to himself, the dunk to himself, and then does the most 2K thing ever. Passes it out to the open three. Here we go. Baby pal thought about it instead. Hands it over to Kuple. Canelo back to ball. Ball. Extra pass to James. James for three. He got fouled. And they will call the foul. And now James getting three free throws and an opportunity to cut the lead down to four. Knicks collapsing before our very eyes yet again in another second quarter. And here’s the interesting fact. We talked about the the lineup being the problem. This is all happening with the starting five. This this collapse has primarily been happening to the Knicks starting five. So, we can’t really blame that raggedy lineup that we were seeing the last few games. Hornets after scoring only 12 in the first quarter putting up 32 this quarter and James with three big free throws ahead of him. P Shams Giannis has a right calf strain. It’s all happening ladies and gentlemen. It’s happening. It’s happening. It’s happening. 4945. Four-point game. The Knicks only up by four now. Towns with a wrap pass there. But good defense there from Colin Ston. No foul. It’s going to be Nick’s ball though. I like the play there between Towns and Hart. But man, what effort by Colin Ston this game, man. Knicks really, really trying to let the Hornets stay in it. Carly Towns picked up falling out. Gets it over to Brunson. Brunson lead pass to Deuce. Deuce finding Hart. Hart goes up. He can’t get the fall, but he will get fouled. Hart now trying to give the Knicks something here. It’ be great to see the Knicks go back up by at least double digits before the second half. But sheesh. KG said, “Y’all is mad as the square garden.” Uh, we are over here going back and forth with the Hornets. Outlaw is not happy. He said, “The damn Hornets broadcast on my pirate ship.” Well, I’m here to help you with that. as Hart misses the free throw. Knicks right now just, you know, oh, the New York Knicks on some interesting stuff right now. Nick strain Oh, sorry. Giannis strained his calf. Yep. Pretty convenient. Pretty convenient. Pretty convenient. But it happened. Oh, it happened. Uh, that’s right. They’re playing the Pistons right now. So, it happened in game. It’s not even a Okay. All right. Well, we’ll check it out. We’ll see if we can get some video of that. I’m hearing it was non-cont. I thought that this was like something that happened in practice and they’re reporting it, but no, I forgot they’re playing the Pistons, so it happened in the game. We’ll pull up video of that here in the ne under the next minute and we’ll see what that’s all about. But right now, Nicks holding on for dear life to a three-point lead. Brunson not sure what he was trying to do there, but the backcourt violation. Giving the ball right back. Look at Rick Brunson. Look at Mike Brown’s face. I don’t mean to laugh, but what are we doing, folks? We got to I got to We got to We got to make uh I’mma add a What’s it called? We going to add a um what’s it called? Emote. CK 2K emote. One of them going to be just the Mike Brown face. Just the Mike Brown stare. The the the the mouth open stare from Mike Brown. Dead ass, bro. We about to make that. We We adding it to the mix, bro. It’s just going to be there. Anytime you hear somebody make a dumb take or whatever, just throw up that Mike Brown stare, bro. Knicks now still holding on to that three-point lead. get away with one right there. Get the ball right back. Brunson trying desperately to force and find anything. Getting it to Deuce. Deuce pass it to Bridges. Bridges firing the corner three. That’s no good. But before the shot even goes up, what was the call? What was the call? Subs coming in for the Knicks, but I don’t even entirely know what the call was just now. Chad saying cat three seconds that on Q Towns going to the bench. Was that really what it was? So we just hate the second quarter right now as ZM said. Yep. It’s been this way all season long. I I pointed it out. The third quarter of Doom might need to be retired because yeah 3 second violation on Carl Anthony Towns. Yeah, Towns was camping down there. Oh wow. All right. The Hornets are they’re going to try and tie this thing up. LaMelo ball one-on-one against Deuce McBride. LaMelo not the best three-point shooter this season, but he’s still going to have the confidence to pull it up even if it’s onelegged. Instead, he just free my boy Melo, man. Free my goal Melo, man. Get him out of there, man. Send him out, bro. Get him out of there, man. My man took up that whole clock just to dribble out of bounce. Knicks now with 1.8. Have an opportunity to get a shot up. Brunson, no, they’re not going to get it to Brunson. Hart has to heave it. Barely gets it to Brunson. Brunson needed to put the ball on the ground. Hits the fadeaway three. Does it count? They are going to count it. So, we’re going to count it. What is this quarter, bro? Oh my god, bro. Yeah, that definitely counts. Oh yeah, he definitely got that one off on time. But man, oh man, what a quarter of basketball. The New York Knicks gave up 35 points while only scoring 26. The Knicks been consistent in this game. 27 in the first quarter, 26 in the second quarter. But here’s where the inconsistency lies, and that’s on the defensive end. We only allowed 12 points in the first quarter, but then gave up 35 in the second. Make it make sense. Tragic. Tragic. Make it all make sense. But the Knicks up by six after Brunson nails the fadeaway three ball, shooting 40% from the field. And that in fact was his first three of the night. One for four is Jaylen Brunson. The three ball not falling tonight. Really flat from three. 29% to be exact. The only shooter, the only shooters that have been making the three ball at a good percentage. Deuce McBride and Tyler Koolic. Both of them two apiece. McBride two for three. Kick two for two. But the story of the first half has been Carl Anthony Towns. And even with a monstrous first half from Carolina Towns, the Knicks barely clinging to life, meaning we need others to come and join him and help him in this one. Been very ball dominant as Carl Anthony Towns, but not much to show of it as we barely trail or barely lead by six. It’s your boy CK2K here on the playbyplay.

Chilled and cool. Say a weird ass game. That is an understatement. RGT is beside himself. JFC, he says. Uh, right. Willie Cruz. Willie Cruz facts that this has become the Knicks identity at this point. Solid first quarter, deadly, nasty second quarter. Then sometimes we get the third quarter of boom. And then last few we’ve got a third quarter of doom. And then it’s the fourth quarter of just trying to figure it all out. But here we go. Taquan gets it. Third quarter of boom. Watch CK2K.

Obviously, if you are new to the chat today, the focus of conversation has been centered around the Giannis onto the Kmpo uh rumor news, if you will. But now it seems like Giannis has more news around him right now. So, we’re going to see. Oh, yeah. He just goes down. Oh, yeah. This is not a good look. So, I’mma play I’mma play it for those who have not seen it yet. But here’s uh here’s what happened to Yan Koopa. That’s the key. Doesn’t look good. Not entirely. I’m waiting to see him get up. He went down. Sorry. It’s not funny. This is not funny. But what we doing? What we doing? Huh? This ain’t nothing doing him. All right. How did he get How did he get screen time, bro? You know what I’m saying? Like, this ain’t about him. They’re going to I’m waiting for them to show the slow-mo on it. I’m waiting to see if he’s going to stand up on it. I’ll show it again for those that that might have missed it. But I thought they’re going to slow-mo it. Seen AJ Green trying to help him up. I want to see can he stand on it because if they’re saying calf strain, that is uh that is like the trainers hiding more to it. All right. They’re not They’re not showing it. Yeah. See, he just goes down. Look right here. Is down. Doesn’t look good. Yeah. Doesn’t look good. The whole stadium gets silent. We’re going to see, man. We’re going to see. I saw someone already in the chat talking about saw someone in the chat already talking about so does this mean that his does that mean that his stock is lower now? I’m like yo bro can y’all take something serious bro? Nick or no man that’s we don’t need that. Uh attack what up? There will be no horned slander now that I’m here. Let me go cry in the corner first. Hey man, nice little run in that third that second quarter. Tack, it’s not over, man. What’s up, Tack? Uh, we just can’t have nice things. Eddie Suarez, the day that the rumor comes out that he wants to be a Nick possibly torn Achilles. Yeah, that leads to an a Achilles tear. Yeah, every time we saw S Gardner have a similar situation. The most notable though is probably Kevin Durant in those NBA finals against the Toronto Raptors. we saw him try and play off of the quote unquote strained uh calf and then that led into a full tear of his Achilles. Um yeah, they they tend to be connected in most most most cases, so they get treated as such, but we’ll see. Non-cont though, you don’t like those, man. Jay Nol. Hey CK, I don’t follow all the rumors and stuff. Why exactly do people seem to seem so certain a trade will be made for Giannis? Possible injury not withstanding. Um well that’s you know Nick Knicks fans. Knicks fans believe that the minute that a player declares they want to be here and then there’s a uh you know there’s a connection between us and said player that it is a done deal. There’s there’s no concrete evidence or information that he is for sure going to be a Nick. All that is really for sure is that Giannis and the Bucks are going to be looking to see if there’s any possibility of making any moves. And um the only thing that around that is around that is that the Knicks can be a major player in that. And why the Knicks would be favored in any trade with Giannis is because we probably would have the most the best player to give back to the Milwaukee Bucks to help them um in a deal. So, I think that’s why a lot of fans would believe that the Knicks are the most favored, but we’ll see. We’ll see what happens if anything tends to happen or if anything happens. But, um, yeah, unfortunate news there. Now, we got the ESPN version in the mid-range finding a cutting AJ Green. And that’s the key. Yeah. I’m trying to see like does he does he walk out on his own? Oh, he does walk out. That’s what I wanted to see. This is what I want. I wanted to see does he walk out on his own. Oh yeah. Okay. So, it’s not Achilles. So, all right. For sure. For sure. Captain. Okay. I don’t be trusting these reports when they be saying that it’s a strange cat. I just don’t trust him. I don’t trust him. But yeah, if he’s walking on his own. Yeah, it’s probably probably is a calf. We should be all right. I said we like he’s a dick already. They should be all Let me stop. Y’all y’all y’all y’all poisoning me, man. Y’all poisoning me, man. Uh, shout out to everybody, man, in the chat. It’s been an interesting half of basketball. We wanted to check in on that because that is Nick or not is uh unfortunate to see that kind of thing happen to a superstar like at that at that level. Been a lot of injuries this year. A lot of stories this year with the NBA, but right now the New York Knicks holding on to a six-point lead in the second game of a backto-back against the Charlotte Hornets. We’ll see how they look in the third quarter. U be said, remember what I said last night, CK is Cat fighting the new offense? Well, there’s a place Midwest where he can be the focal point of the offense for sure. Yeah, we’ll see. BK and Y said if he comes near, we have to take his brother, too. Yuck. Look at Shane and Sharp. Driving Dunk right there. Sorry, I’m looking at the top the highlights. RGT said, “Lol, that dude is fine.” Right. Right. Right. Um, it’s Cat’s fault. He sent someone to hurt Giannis. Look, tonight, Cat hasn’t scored from the bench. Anyone from this chat would score while on the bench. Interesting take. Giannis’ doctors live in New York. Elevator. There’s no way, bro. Uh, what’s good, CK? The Knicks are looking not bad, but those Hornets got bunch of threes. Yeah. Um, it to me, it’s not even really about the Hornets catching fire because it’s it’s the NBA teams are going to do that. It’s the response. Uh we saw this similar instance last night. You know, I I get it. The other team is gonna make some points, but we we have such a hard time responding to that. We start to go stupid offensively in response. So, yeah, that that’s my issue with that second quarter more than anything else. Let’s get giving to the vibes. Yiannis is one of us. One of us. One of us. I ain’t saying nothing until it’s official, bro. Y’all not going to do this to me, bro. I’m late, but I’m here. What up CK? What up Vanessa? Hope you are good. Hope you had a wonderful day. Glad to have you. Kobe walked it off and it was his Achilles just saying. Yeah, that’s I I mean I get that but lot not a lot of fools. Kobe Bryant, bro. I’m sorry if he’s a little It might be you know if there’s anybody I would believe it being Giannis be the next one but a lot of people try. I don’t know if y’all heard the Tyrese Hallebert story trying to try to be cool and try to walk it off. He say he took a couple of steps then he instantly collapsed. N I’m I’m I think it might be uh I think it might be the calf strain. He was moving a little too comfortably. Even Kobe when he walked it off, you could see he was in pain. We’ll see, man. We’ll see. Madison Square Giannis like Russell Whiskey said. Oh lord, bro. Look, I will I will if if if if it happens, I will celebrate with y’all. But I ain’t gonna put that in my head right now. I’m going to focus on the Knicks getting this win today and getting ourselves in the spot. By the way, um we didn’t really talk about it, but Jaylen Brunson was rewarded player of the week last week. So, shout out to the cap. I think it was in that week he averaged what 29 points a game. Eastern Conference player of the week. 29 points a game. Knicks went 4 and 0 last week. So, shout out to the cat. To be fair, cat has been healthier than Giannis last couple of years. True. Giannis meeting with OKC. So, I don’t know about the Knicks. That would be so I hope he doesn’t do that. Peace and love. I hope he doesn’t do that. He said, he said, “Not this week.” Y’all, y’all not right, bro. He like, “Cool, but not this week. He ain’t no He ain’t my player of the week this week.” Oh my gosh. I forgot we might be welcoming home our draft pick the Nasis onto Dupo. Once a dick, always a dick. If we do, I’m playing into the meme. I ain’t going to lie. It’s time to develop the Nasses. Nah, bro. Nah. CK2K. Uh, Jaylen player of the week is like Dirk’s MVP after losing to the Warriors. Woof. Damn. It wasn’t that serious, but Jesus, I get what you’re saying. I’m so mad we lost to Boston. Amen. Amen. The way Kobe planted, you knew what it was. You also knew he was tough for walking it off. That’s that’s that’s true. Yeah. The way he’s moving, he doesn’t have that same kind of like pain to it. We’ll see. I mean, I ain’t no doctor. I just I just wanted to see if he was going to walk it off or he had to get carried off. No, he walked off on his own will. Obviously a little slow to it, but I buy it. What up, young? Hope you’re good. Welcome back for the second half. Knicks only up by six. were getting ready to run it back after a so and so first half. First quarter looked great. It was the Carl Anthony Town show. But second quarter things were all Charlotte as they went on a run and now trail by just six points. Shout out to everybody in the chat.

But LaMelo LaMelo seems like he is taking No, it’s got to be J. It’s got to be J. LaMelo’s only been recent. It’s only been like the last week. John Morant. It’s been all season for him. It’s been all season for Jaw. He just looked like he is dejected. He’s like halfass in these games. And yeah. Yeah, I’m going Jaw. Jaw is my choice. Wisdom. I wanted to go with LaMelo, but I’m going with Jaw cuz Jaw it’s been like that all season. A little bit of last season, too. That being said, though, 4753, we back in action here for the second half. Can with the alleyoop and no good, but he is fouled on the ground. But no, I should be on the shot. So, he’s probably going to get some free throws here. Oh, no, he won’t. No free throws on the way. Yeah. Inbound for Charlotte. Just the foul for Jaylen Brunson. Oh, Marion. And the, you know, I’m talking about like, you know, the B2K and the the OKC has enough ass. Yeah, I know they got enough assets to do it, but Lord of Mercy don’t do that. LaMelo Ball. Oh, but did for the second time, I don’t know how to say his name. Diabet, however you say his name, he has had a hard time getting to the rim for those dunks. Fouled on the second attempt though by Deuce McBride LaMelo with a little bit of Steve Nash level trickery. Dribbled around and around and around. Yeah, this diabete guy just cannot get to the rim. That’s the second time he got hung at the rim, but it will result in a foul. Kimell Walker on the coaching staff is still such a wild thing for me to see, bro. Good for him. Handing off to Canelo. Canelo for three. That one no good. He beat it with the rebound. Finding LaMelo ball. LaMelo ball. Flings it and wings it. LaMelo celebrating, feeling good. Finally seeing a three ball fall for him and a timely one at that. Knicks trail. Oh, sorry. Knicks are only up by three now. Inbound there or sorry, uh, dumps it down to Towns. Towns throwing a wild alley to Bridges. Bridges able to get the fingertips on it and puts it down. Five-point game. But on the other side, anything you could do, I could do better. LaMelo Ball with the oop to Miles Bridges. The Hornets now playing with some confidence in the start of this third quarter. Eggs playing a little slow for my liking, but Towns now looking to break it down against Ibita, but no, he’s looking for a pass. He ain’t even looking to try and find a bucket. Screen set there. Deuce gets the switch back to Towns. One-on-one with Bridges. Gets the pump fake. Step back. Onelegged pull. Inspired by LaMelo Ball, but misses. Gets his own rebound. Now pulls from three and he nails it. Oh, Anthony Towns just doing whatever he wants today. And LaMelo, nobody’s guarding him. Jaylen Brunson. No, that wasn’t even Jaylen Brunson. I don’t even know who it was getting lost there off of that screen. No help. Gets the easy one down the lane. And here comes LaMelo Ball. So, Wisdom, I feel even more confident. It was Deuce that got left behind. but induces defense. He had no help in the paint and he just skips right on through. But yeah, Wisdom, I feel uh yeah, I I stand on my decision of choosing John Morant cuz LaMelo right now looking confident. Uh Brunson is tired. He he he ain’t allowed to be tired. He ain’t got time to be tired right now. Frankie, again, I’m so sorry I don’t get to see uh subs on Twitch, but I appreciate you for re-uping your prime sub, my boy. Means a lot. 36 months total on a two-mon streak. Appreciate you, Frank. What’s good, brother? Um, it was a semi bad, LaMelo. Right. Right, man. Went on a tear to start off this quarter. Nicks right now trail or sorry, only up by four. Luckily, diabetes that that sugar, how do you say his name? Is it diabet? How do you say it? Diabet. Oh, bro. I I don’t I don’t I can’t, bro. All these damn names this year, bro. Does Brunson want changes, too? Why is he playing like this? Eddie says he’s tired of his own BS. Listening party says, “Not tired, just playing like trash.” Ty said that they’re cussing out cat on defense. Rightfully so. There’s a whole I gotta find it. There is a whole mixtape of of Miguel Bridges talking to Carl Anthony Towns after all of his mistakes on defense. Some of them he’s a little animated, other ones he’s trying to be a good teammate, but it’s really funny. Speaking of MueL, might need him to turn it up here in this second half. It seems like we are not getting a spark from anything right now. Hey, Randy Jones. Randy Johnson, pause. Pause. Randy, pause. Chuck D in the building. Can’t stop a nose bleed. Amen. Chuck. Shout out to Chuck D in the building. PE’s in the chat for the legend. T Who is the best point guard in the East? You know, the first first week and some change I was confidently going to give you Jaylen Brunson, but if you want me to take my Knicks hat off, I you know, I still I don’t know. I don’t know. The best guard in the East, I I wanted to say Maxi, but Maxi’s even slowed down a little bit. Donovan slowed down a little bit. I know people would be like, Kade, Kade, Kade, tough, tough go, man. Ask me at the end of the season, bro. Until then, my default answer is is Jaylen Brunson as Muel Bridges. Right on Q. Right on Q. I just asked. I said we might need Miguel to get it going. And Muel said, “You right, my boy. I got you.” Balls moving around though. Look at the confidence of the Hornets. They are always somebody open. James Short for the three. Canelo gets the rebound. That’s not who you want to see. Pick up an open rebound. Bridges to ball. Ball’s been on fire that time. No good. Rebounded by Towns. Knicks need to push the pace here and keep this ball, no pun intended, rolling. Hart now looking for the screen. Hart on the drive. James in front of him. Hart gets blocked at the top, saving it to Deuce. Deuce lands inbounds. Bridges to Towns. Towns to Brunson. Brunson back to Towns. Towns looking around and he’s backing down deep. What a pass. Brunson a lot of contact. can’t get the bucket to fall, but he will get free throws. Nicks right there a good job of mo moving the ball. Ball is going to pick up the foul on Brunson. TK, what do you think about Zion getting hurt again? I couldn’t even tell you last time I remember Zion playing basketball. You could tell me right now that Zion’s been playing all season long and been averaging career stats. I wouldn’t believe you. I just I just I don’t I don’t think of Zion Williamson as a basketball player because he’s never playing basketball. RJ Barrett’s the best player in that draft drive class. How much more do you want from me, bro? I can go all I can go I I could talk about this for the rest of the stream. That answer your question? Any of that answer your question? Oh boy. I’m I still I still think here’s here’s the here’s the only compliment I got for Zion Williamson. I still think the minute that the Pelicans get rid of him, I think that Zion Williamson about to reincarnate, have a a renaissance at his next stop. I stand on that. I stand on that. Unless he ends up on like a Brooklyn or something crazy, but yeah, I stand on that. T getting traded to the Saints. Hey man, we can use the help. Pion running back Canuple for the pull up in the mid-range. They’re putting out the fire a little bit for the Hornets as the Knicks caught some fire and extended their lead. Hart using the screen. Hart finding Towns. By the way, both free throws down for Jaylen Brunson. Brunson picked up by Bridges. Bridges. Our Bridges. Muel Bridges now at the rock looking for Towns. Towns went up a little too high if you ask me. I thought he would have stayed at the elbow instead. Gets it over to Brunson. Brunson on the drive. One man to beat. Beats him. Gets the floater and Brunson a much needed bucket in the paint. Uh Canuple firing from three. That’s no good. Rebounded by Deuce McBride. CK, would you want Zion in a Knicks uniform? We need hype. I don’t care what his positions claims to be. We need hype. Carl Anthony Towns 43. And Towns continuing his aggressive play in this one as he tries to lead the Knicks past the Charlotte Hornets. We’re all going to act like it has nothing to do with the rumors that came out today. And Towns is just looking to turn this thing around. 6856 12-point lead yet again for the Knicks. Ball gets a lot of space. What a finish around the paint. LaMelo Ball trying to get the Hornets back in it. The Hornets lost their energy a little bit. Ball though trying to keep it going for them. Oh my goodness. Towns gets a push off there on Miles Bridges, but Towns is going to get the foul. Good for Town or Towns, sorry. The foul is going to be four. The foul is going to be against Bridges leading the Towns going to the line for two. So, we’ll take it. Free throws on the way. Carl Anthony Towns big free throws on the way. Taquan said, “Let’s go.” CK talk. Me too. CK. Yeah. Um, free throw one going down for Carl Town. 69. Nice to 58. Frank, why? We don’t need any more players in street clothes. You know, you know what Frank’s doing. Frank out here trying to get sound bites, bro. Don’t Don’t take it serious. Frank wouldn’t do it either. Frank wouldn’t do it either. Shout out to Frank. Frank know what he doing. Free throws down for Carl Anthony Towns. And now the Knicks seem to have finally got a good grasp of this game. Speaking of getting a grasp of this game, with 850 left in the Blazers Cavs game, the Blazers holding on to a 14-point lead. Also, with about 6 minutes left in the Spurs Magic game, the Spurs holding on to a 9-point lead. So, loving some of these circumstances around the NBA. Ball trying to throw some nonsense up, but the foul on Brunson. Ball going to the line for two. But know they’re going to say it’s on the ground, so it won’t it might not be a shooting foul. Neither team in the bonus. So they might just call that a regular foul on Jaylen Brunson. I’m trying to see what Brunson did here. Ball a little bit of a push out of bounce. Very slight. Ball doing a great job trying to sell and trying to turn it into a shooting foul, but that’s definitely going to be on the ground. So inbound. Diabete right there with the ball. Looking around trying to find somebody, anybody to get the rock to. Gets it to Canelo. That is probably the right choice. Back to the roll. And how did nobody see that coming? Boneheaded play after boneheaded play defensively for the New York Knicks. We’re seeing Towns get the ball back at the top at the three-point line. He’s looking to try and dish it off to somebody else. He’ll find Hart. Hart can’t corral it though. Ball there to defend him. Gets the stop, but they will call a foul. And Ball fouling Josh Hart. Diabetes. I don’t know how to say his name. Tell me please somebody. Di look it literally diabet diab how do how do you say it bro help? Clippers beating ATL but is ATL doing anything right now? Golly they are smacking ATL. Maybe sending Chris Paul home is the right decision. Nobody says Clippers, bro. Oh gosh, I meant to check the Piston score and accidentally switched over to the Pistons game. Pistons are up, by the way. 4837. I have to refresh my stream. Di diabetes. There go diabetes. Did you just say diabetes? Oh, someone in chat said diabetes and I copy what they said. I I was under the impression as diabete or whatever. Diabate. There’s some I I heard I heard I’m trying to go off of what they say at the Hornets broadcast. I’m pretty sure it’s diabeta. I don’t know how to say it, bro. Diabetes, bro. I’m just going to call him 14. 14 with the rock. Hand it over to Canelo. Canelo flings it over to LaMelo. LaMelo uh catchin shot there. No good jump ball between Towns and 14. Knicks up by 12 by the way. got themselves out of that little hole. Shout out to Queens, man. Shout out to Queens. Appreciate you. What’s up, brother? We not supporting the clips where they did the CP3. Amen. Diabate. Thank you. Diabate. Okay. So, it’s fancy diabetes. Diabate. Type 1 diabetes. Okay. Let’s go. Diabate. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Type one Dabbate. That’s his name, bro. All right. CK2K, my brother. What up? What up, Queens? What up, bro? Cat can shoot. You don’t need your big doing massive little man work now. Lol. Start big man two-way play in late January in my opinion. Chuck speaking his mind thinking that the Knicks should not pursue Giannis onto the Gooo. make no trades,” he says. Going against the grain here as the chat has been echoing all day long that they want the Greek man. Meanwhile, CK is just here struggling trying to pronounce the name Diabate. Oh, we got we got an update. Diabetes. We got Diabetes. Which one is it, Willie? Hold on. Wait. I got two of them. Willie saying Dabbites, but I other one I got was diabatees. What is it? Somebody lying to me. Somebody lying to me. He said it’s fancy diabetes cream. Oh boy. Who said we don’t have fun on a playbyplay, man? Shout out to 280 in the chat, man. We We trying to figure it out. Fancy diabetes. I spit all my water. Yeah, man. Tai Dabate, bro. Let’s go, man. Whatever. Somebody lying to me. I’m going with Diabatees, bro. Chuck standing on all tentos saying, “Nope. Hell no. No trades. Dcoin Tillery is already in Dcoin’s mind, he already making the trade for Giannis on 2K. 2 Giannis is a Nick according to Dcoin Tiller. CP3 future Nick. I you know there’s a there there’s a world where I would have been okay with that especially with with his affordable contract right now. But I’m not there right now. Let’s keep running with the young guys. Tyler Kolic is getting his uh confidence. We bring him in and then we lose that. So no, I’m cool with what we got, man. Also, as I said about Zion in that hypothetical, we need hype. Shams even said it’s possible. Yeah. Yeah. Everyone’s talking about the possibilities and it makes sense. I get it. Diabetes. All right. And Eddie, you’re not helping at all. And he said, “Let me give it a swing. Let me give it a swing.” Probably sound like this, right? Diabetes Spanish for you. Got that sugar. Santana Diva. Appreciate you for joining the crew. Glad to have you, big dog. All right, we having fun. Nicks having fun. 12-point lead here in this third quarter. Knicks hopefully will not squander it yet again. LaMelo Ball though trying to do everything he can to keep the Hornets in the fight. Not able to get the second chance there, but it’s going to be Hornets ball off of the Knicks tip. 12-point game. Clark Carson has been tragic last three years. Yes. Yes. After such a strong start winning me over as a fan. Yeah. He is going through it right now. Golly gets left behind from his former teammate Colin Sexton. Sexon hitting the mid-ranger. Colin Ston has in what has been a ugly season overall for the Hornets. Ston has been a one of the few bright spots. Jordan Clarkson another brick from three. Rebounded by the Knicks fighting for no. Diabate gets it. Colin Ston missing the layup. And the Knicks pushing the other way. A lot of extra opportunities. Hart thinks about it. Hart goes all the way. Hart flings it up, draws the contact and he’s going to get free throws. This game has been a bit ugly at points, but as long as the Knicks are continue to put points up, getting the job done. Sant thought I had a membership. My bad. No, don’t apologize. I appreciate you. Don’t apologize at all, man. Welcome to the family, Sant. Yes, welcome to the family. We here. Uh, we need chemistry. Knicks fans, look up Bob McAdoo. Uh, may have been before many of your times, but same team, same building, same city, same NBA superstar grab. Milwaukee should have been won three Eastern Conference Finals. Again, Chuck not a fan of the idea trading for the Greek Freak. Interesting conversation, man. It’s an interesting conversation to have cuz it’s just such an interesting time to make that kind of a move. And I think that’s my only hang-up is just the timing of it because you know technically this is our first full season with everyone with after a full training camp. Yeah, we we honestly we still are learning things because we got a whole new coach and a whole new system. So, we’re relearning that. you make a move like that getting Giannis and Giannis has to then get reintegrated or integrated in general with the squad. It’s a lot of lot of factors to it. You know what I’m saying? So, I understand all all sides of it, you know, but if you were to ask me if if Milwaukee had me on the line right now as the New York Knicks GM saying, “We’re ready to make the move. Are you hitting send?” I’m hitting set just for the just for the mere fact that you know I I like that that cat can open up the floor for us. Shout out to Kenya Solomon. I like that Cat can quote unquote open up the floor for us, but I feel like there’s a lot more fastest we can get out of Giannis. But the problem is, you know, his injuries have been a little bit of an issue. But yeah, I again again all all great arguments on all all facets, all sides. Not fine, y’all. Uh Hart to the line for two makes the first one. That champagne was close. 7462 as Hart hits both free throws. Nick’s doing a solid job on the free throw line here tonight. 13 to 16 in the 80 percentile. Love that. 7462-point game. LaMelo Ball probably playing his one of his best stretches of this young season. Canuple gets the pass down. What a block from Hart. That’s going to be Nick’s ball. Teimu Pow getting blocked by Joshua Hart. Nicks getting another opportunity. Triple putt Pat said thumbs up y’all. Click that dag gum button. Tell them brother click that dag gum button for real. We got Deuce going to the bench. Bridges checking back in. 12point game. Knicks. Now, this is the point where I would love to see the Knicks push away a little bit. Huck in the game right now. Getting it back to Bridges. Bridges finding Brunson. Bridges and Brunson both a quiet night tonight. Brunson gets the floater to fall. Almost looked like an alleyoop there. A porty doing a good job reading the play. 14-point game. LaMelo Ball finding Bridges. Bridges is losing it on the way up, but will get called for the foul. I think it’s going to be against Hucky. Bridges to the line. Damos says that uh Jericho Sims has 10 points off of five for five field goals. Happy for him. So, was he hurt when we played him the few times we played him? I was wondering why he wasn’t even in the rotation. So he he must have been injured. Must have been injured. Surely we don’t let the baby blue bees go on a run, right? Hopefully. Both free throws down for Bridges. Bronny on the Knicks. Disgust. Don’t listen to him. Nobody discuss that. Nobody discuss it. Nobody comments on it. 7664 12-point game. Brunson steps into a three ball. Just not his night after coming off of a player of the week. Bridges getting cute. Gets the roll and the make. Muel Bridges, man. I mean, you know, he’s missed a few shots in that first half, but the way this season is going, Mikuel does not miss many shots. Porty getting a monster dunk on LaMelo Ball. Jordan Clarkson finding a wideopen Brunson. Brunson elects to go to the rim. Bridges with the up and under. And the Knicks now feeling confident. 405 remains in this third quarter. That has been Ho Hum. Canup will try to shoot it. Bridges there for the block. And Bridges number two in the NBA and Stocks. Clarkson’s in a three. He fakes it. He’s looking around. He throws up a floater. He gets a bounce. And the Knicks finding a groove just like that. An 18-point game. We went from 12 to 18 in a matter of seconds. A 10-2 run to be exact for the final or for the the last two minutes. LaMelo trying to give the Knicks or the Hornets something, anything. A smooth floater right there to cut into the lead. A 16point lead. Much better second half for LaMelo, but not many others following suit. Brunson pulls the mid-ranger and the Knicks cannot miss. A 144 run for the New York Knicks. The Melo, you can tell, is probably about to get subbed out. So, he’s trying to give every bit that he can before he leaves. McNeely for the three and laces it. A lot of shooters in this rookie class that the Horn is drafted up. We’ll see what it turns into in the long run. Brunson finding Hart. Hart wants to jump into the fun. He doesn’t get it. Porty gets the rebound. Back out to Brunson. Brunson to Clarkson. Clarkson thinks about it. Clarkson on the drive. Picked up by Canelo. Almost loses the handle. And now he has to reset. Clarkson on the drive. Canelo is backpedaling and stumbling and bumbling. Another make. Good patience there from Jordan Clarkson. Team Pow trying to throw it up and he goes to the line for two. Ties, we got to get back to the Easter Conference first. I’m not counting the chip yet. Amen. Another run without guess who? No. Oh boy. Curtis West. I don’t like that nickname. You gonna have to explain that nickname to me, but I don’t like it. I I I’m not calling him that. I don’t like that one, Curtis. I don’t like that at all. Not even a little bit, bro. Great job from Clarkson. He reset it and finished. Yep. Huck should be playing more. Yep. Wisdom. Lol. CK. What a lob merchant. Ali. All alioops for Sims. What a lob merchant. It’s crazy. Ho. I’m not calling him that, bro. Curtis West. I wouldn’t need you to go back to the the the nickname board because I’m not calling him that. Jaylen Brunson, a moving screen for Hucky. Not sure how I feel about that one. Look at Patrick in the building. Get that man on the coaching staff. Damn it. Now they The Knicks are paying him to be an ambassador. Good for him. That is the job. That is a dream job. 8671 though, 15-point game. Hornets trying to cut back into it. McNeely finding T-Mal, handing it back over to Saloon. Saloon gets the ball to the paint. He misses that one there. Draws the contact. Here comes free throws. Clarkson can’t believe it. Curtis, please. Oh no, the nickname’s catching on. No one likes it. Curtis, Chef Curtis West, I’m going to need you. I need you to go into the drawing board and read re, you know, find a new nickname. Big fella. I don’t like it. Chuck says, “I like Giannis as an enemy. Green light.” No, no, no. Hold on, bro. Hold on. Curtis Wes is a member. No, no, no, no, no. Green light. No, let him live, bro. Let him live. Queens. Queens. Chill. Queens. Oh, man. Hey, what up? What up, Fly Boy? How you doing, bro? Uh, I was nosy and wanted to see what the nickname truck had. Now I wish I had it was Curtis. I wish I had it. Yeah, man. My man Queens ready to shoot. Bro, let my man Curtis live. Shout out to Chef Curtis West, man. That’s the OG. Another foul there. The Hornets right here trying to chip away, getting to the free throw line on backto back possessions. This time Cat checks in and immediately called with the foul. He said phasers on stun. The phasers are never on stun with queens, bro. Queens is shoot to kill at all times. You There ain’t timeouts when Queens is is behind the helm, bro. Timeouts are not a thing. You are banned. Ain’t no shoot. It’s no stun. He is on shoot to kill. I got I got treat I got treat queens like blue from uh Jurassic World. I like a champ queens. Oh man, that’s funny. Y’all funny, bro. Anyways, 80 uh 75 to 86, 11point lead. Knicks were so close to getting back up to 20, but the Hornets doing everything right, chipping away, going to the free throw line, making things difficult. So, a timeout called by Mike Brown so the Knicks can get resettled and start it over. He said phases on blaze. Right, right, right, right. You know this CK. Yeah, man. He said just kid. No, you not play with your queens. Elo fatal queens. Right, bro. Right, bro. Man, look at me. Say green light. Uh, look at Cat trying to look like a good defender. wisdom cat. Respectfully, nobody is challenging a Falcon from you. All right, bro. Oh, man. Shout out to the 300 in the building, man. We’re having fun today. The New York Knicks trying to make this one interesting as they’re up by 11 points against the Charlotte Hornets. The Hornets, I should say, trying to make this one interesting. The Knicks allowing them to do such. Marcus Miller, shout out to you, my guy. Appreciate you becoming a member. Appreciate you. Appreciate you. Be appreciate you, Marcus Miller, my guy. With all disrespect, Carl. Anyways, uh here we are. Knicks are inbounding. We got a minute 35 remaining in this third quarter. Knicks winning this third quarter. We are 35 to28 is always the uh big deal for me. I love when we take advantage in the third quarter. That one is going to be called goalending right at the peak as it was on its way down. It was blocked and that is a goalending. Can’t do that. So two points on the board for El Capitan. Yeah, that’s already yep. He got that about a second too late. Here we go. 8875 13-point game. I have no idea who this guy is at point guard. That ain’t Trey man or anybody I know, but I will check the stumbling and bumbling though. Hands it right back. McNeely from the Knicks logo almost gets it to fall rebounded. Oh, Py having a hard time, but Bridges will corral it. A minute left and we’re seeing some uh bet MGM stats here. Knicks are seventh or sorry, second ranked for the bet to win the Eastern Conference right now. So take your bets if you want to. Not sponsored though. Brunson though drawing the foul. Brunson getting two free throws on the play. He said I have to join to protect myself from queens. Queens spinning the block man. Be careful. Tread lightly. Tread lightly. Brunson to the line for two. The Greek freak is singing this right now. I’m broad. I’m broad. on Broadway. Yes, I’m Oh, man. Knicks fans, we want Giannis, they said. That’s what they said. Oh man. Brunson gets the first one, also drains the second one as they zoom. Look, look at the look at the Hornets coaching staff. My boy, you got to hide it better than that. He’s sitting on the bench like, “Yo, bro, what is what is going on?” Shout out to Kimell Walker, though. McNeely off the screen. McNeely over the 12. Yeah, there’s a lot of players on this Hornets team. I couldn’t really I can’t really name. 25 is going to fire the three ball. Don’t know who he is, but he missed it. I got to do my research here. 25. 25. That’s KJ Simpson now. Nope. Wouldn’t Wouldn’t be able to tell you all that, man. 7590. 15-point game. 15 seconds remain. 10 on the shot clock. Towns thought about it. Goes right after the smaller saloon. Misses the layup though. 5 seconds remain. Shout out to George for the sub. Good block by Hook Porty. Knicks trying to get it up on time and they won’t. But the Knicks will win the third quarter. Third quarter. A boom indeed. They just had a six-point lead coming into the second half and escaped with a 15-point one after the third quarter of play. That’s that’s our best quarter of the game even though we had a monstrous start to the game. 37 points put up in the third and the New York Knicks looking to cruise to victory here. Carl Anthony Towns the leading man 27 points 12 rebounds five assists plus 18 along with Jaylen Brunson who has 23 points. Jaylen Brunson who has had a rough few nights after being named Eastern Conference player of the week last week. Brunson having a rough stretch right now but trying to get himself out of it. Still not shooting the three ball where he would like. 20% tonight but 53% from the field. Male Bridges had himself a nice third quarter. 13 points, six for 10 from the field. New York Knicks looking to close the deal and get this second game of the backto back in the win column. Third quarter a boom to uh Taco. Third quarter boom. You know who doesn’t miss layup CK Giannis. Ah, that notification never gets old. Touch, Amaran. Yeah, that was from that was from one of the streams, man. I had to I had to use it, bro. The three stooges lineup incoming, Deuce, and Clarkson. You going to leave my boy Kick alone, man. Col with two threes on the night. Nice quarter for the squad. Can’t let a random get hot in the fourth. Amen. Scotty said, “Yo, Giannis is hurt.” Yes. Um, we watched the injury halftime. Um, yeah, allegedly a strained calf. He did walk out on his own accord, but yes, a strained calf is the report. The three stooges has to be Yaboo Clarkson Hart. Lol, they be tripping. We’re going to see right now as the Knicks try to take this one home and then we have we have a game against Utah on Friday. What are we doing? What’s happening? Oh, Garden of Dreams. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. I was a little glitchy there, but we’re back. And what do you know? Mike Brown giving CK the lineup he wants. Bridges out there on the floor with Kolic Towns and right on Q. Oh, doesn’t get the three ball to fall. But what do we know? Mike Brown, I’m telling you, Mike Brown is watching this stream live. I’m telling y’all, what a take there from Miles Bridges. Can’t get it to fall. Towns is going to get the rebound. Kick ahead of the pack, but nobody running with him. So, he’s waiting to get somebody, anybody. Towns at the top of the three-point line. Almost traveled right there. Slings it right back to Kick. Screen on the way. Doesn’t use the screen. Kick doing a great job drawing the contact, but they won’t call the foul. Bridges going to fire over ball. And that time it will go down. Kolic and Bridges still waiting on the sitcom to be made, but the two of them always equals magic. No Orlando. Good block there. Hook Py has been a monster. Looking like a a throwback. Mitchell Robinson here defensively blocking the mid-range jumpers. Deuce McBry missed the three there. Bridg is trying to get cute trying to get the pass back out to Kick. Kick saves it, but it won’t result in a shot. looking for the screen from Hucky. Down goes ball. No foul is called and the foul is actually going to be called and they will call the moving foul on Hucky. Tragically enough, too. Towns made that three ball off of the pass, but we won’t get those three points. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nope. He He was out of your range, Huck. He was out of your range. You stepped your foot out. Can’t do that. Can’t do it. That’s five fouls for Huck Bord. Golly Huck out there earning these minutes. LaMelo ball off the dribble. LaMelo flings it to McNeely. He misses the three. Rebounded by Towns. Towns up to Kohic. Kolic one man ahead of him and it’s Bridges. But there’s two defenders in between him. So he’s not going to go that way. Kick trying to get cute. Fade away jumper from K. Oh, if he made that I was about to lose my mind. Towns though. A lot of contact. No foul called, but it is the Kolic Towns and Mikuel Bridges show to start this fourth. We’re trying to put it away, but it seems like CK may or may not know a thing or two cuz I feel like I called this that this should be the start of our our second quarter lineup. You know, I feel like I said this on this live and last live as Duce goes for the three no good. me. I I feel like I said this that we would get a better result having Bridges out there with those guys as opposed to Hart. No, no, no disrespect to Hart. I just feel like they need that other option to score as well as you’re getting some defense and a stop there from Towns back and forth. Towns with the fast break play. I’m just saying. Yeah, you going to get this. I told you so. Marcus Miller cuz I did I called this one yesterday when we talked about these raggedy second quarters. So you going to get this? I told you so. Marcus Miller. Knicks on a tail right now. 22point lead right now. And the Knicks looking good. He said Miles been stringing like that. Uh yeah, Cat definitely saw Sports Center today. Oh, Cat don’t got 60 points yet. Ty said, “I’m not amu I’m not amused. Till he gets 60, I’m not listening.” CK, the side of Giannis uh 30s is injury laden unless he goes to great conditioning squad that protects his body. Under Tibs, we were Miami. Uh, under Tibs, we were Miami would excel with Giannis, not us as much. Okay. Okay. I see what you’re saying. I see what you’re saying. But, you know, that I Alexarus always tells me, you know, this this this uh this this medical staff is different. CK, you you can trust this medical staff. So, you know, I I’m told not to worry about the injuries so much, Chuck, is what I’ve been told. But that’s a great point. Tcoin said, “No more talk about that trade until he has a bad game.” Rose Whiskey, you’re damn right. Gave give me Yiannis or nothing. Dcoin, we got Dcoin. Tillery wanting Yiannis. Taquan saying, “Let’s ease up on the conversation since Cat is playing well today. Defense isn’t the best. Passes up, dunks, layups, and a foul machine.” Talking about, you know what’s funny, Queens? I just read your previous comment, so I know you’re talking about a Huck, but if I didn’t read that previous comment, I wouldn’t know if you’re talking about Huck or if you were talking about Carl Anthony Towns. That wasn’t that wasn’t me trying to slide him. I’m just being real that, you know, the comment fits for both players. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. So, I had to double check who you were talking about, but you’re talking about Huck. Yeah. Huck showing a little bit of rust here today. The thing is, it’s funny cuz it we’re getting a 50/50 game out of Huck. I understand. It’s probably not the best outing, but it it’s it hasn’t been terrible in my opinion because I thought he’s done a good job on the uh protecting the rim. Unfortunately, a few of those turned into some fouls, but uh I I wasn’t completely upset with the version of Hucker we got today. Yeah, it could have been better for sure, but defensively is all I’m asking for for Big Huck. Every game Cat doesn’t score 80, he’s out of here. The chat is done. Oh, 9775 is a score. 22-point lead. LaMelo trying to get one more fight out of the Hornets, but the Hornets just missing all the gimmies. The Knicks playing with so much energy right now. LaMelo firing the three from Brooklyn and that’s no good. But Hucky, yo, they are I ain’t going to lie, referee’s bullying Hucky, man. That dude couldn’t get a chance. And he’s going to pick up his sixth foul. And that will be the end of the night for Hucky. I don’t know some of these calls that he got. Yeah, Carly Town’s giving him some love. Yeah, Hug 40 kind of got bullied on some of these calls. These referees a little ticky tack on some of these fouls on Ariel Hugporty, but we move. That’s That’s the life of being a player from the end of the bench. No respect from the referees. Here comes Josh Hart checking in for Huckorty. So, the lineup’s going to turn a little smaller. Here we go. Seeing Hart, uh, Deuce, Kohic, Bridges, and Towns. LaMelo trying to get something, anything. Gets the foul and one. Yo, LaMelo can’t talk about his fight tonight. He’s playing solid, but not much else to work off of from the remainder of his cast. Melo fighting hard, but it might be all for not. Melo to the line to at least cut this game under 20 for now. Huck was dissed. I agree. And LaMelo gets the free throw to fall. A 19-point game. Knicks up with 858 left. I’m sure we probably will go to Brunson, but there we if we keep this energy that the Knicks are playing with. What a find by Kohic. And a three ball. You better give him that assist, Mr. Joshua. Art. There might be a world where we won’t need to go back to the captain. LaMelo sideeps, gets the three ball to F. I’m telling you, he’s the only one out there trying to give the Hornets a shot, but everyone else just him and Han in the Hornets uniform. And the Knicks taking complete advantage of the lack of fight by this Hornet squad. Kick over to Bridges. Bridges looking around. He’s in the corner with James trying to find Towns. Towns going to let it fly. That one a little strong. reduced to fight for the rebound, but it’s going to be McNeely who gets the board. McNeely picked up by Bridges. Crosscourt to LaMelo. LaMelo quick pass to James. James firing from the corner three. And here we go. Back to a 17 math. 16 point lead for the New York Knicks. So maybe we might get a few more Brunson minutes. And right on Q. Here comes the captain. Bridges with the handle finding Kolic. Kick hands it to Deuce. Deuce with a perfect looking shot. That one does not fall. That was one of those shots that looked like it was going to fall, but it does not. Uh B Milson Hart said, “Damn, I got to go back in.” He thought he was done. Well, the Knicks right now trying to not let the Hornets get back in this one, but the Hornets with a little bit of fight as long as LaMelo Ball is out on the floor. Hornets trying to give them something. Kick fires from three. That one no good. Hart fighting for that rebound. LaMelo going to run away with it. Two players on the wings. LaMelo sideeps. Kick is there to poke it away, but he won’t get it. Miles Bridges comes up short. And yeah, no help from the Cast from one Bridges to another. Muel finding deuce for the corner three. Lot of contact. He’s fouled and he’s going to get three free throws. Can’t get the bucket to fall as well. And somehow Teimu Pal is the one with the injury. Oh yeah, he got it. Bro, that is reverse. And the thing is, he still might get a a flagrant for this. Rolled his own ankle and he might get a flagrant for rolling his own ankle. He was all up in the landing zone of Deuce McBride there, but he is on the wrong side of it. Hobbling to the sideline is the rookie. He has had a solid season if they develop him right. The the Hornets do have a solid big man on the way up. They got a solid squad of rookies in general. They they The Hornets, I know it’s it’s so funny to say because of how bad this team is, but they they do have something. They do have something, but it’s with the Hornets, it’s always what are they do they know what to do next when you start to build something finally? And the Hornets never know what to do. They always do. They always get it wrong. So, we’ll see what they decide to do in the coming season. I like the pickup of Charles Lee. I like the G the new GM that they brought in there. But what will they do next? I don’t know. Can’t blame MJ no more. He’s a minority owner now. He ain’t even the main owner no more. So, we’ll see. We’ll see. But this year is not one of those years cuz uh it’s going to be another lottery year for the Charlotte Hornets. Uh Deuce, by the way, missing one of his three free throws, going two for three from the line in that opportunity. Knicks up 18. Straight to the locker room. Yeah, Kick passes me right in the shooting pocket, bro. Every time. Right. Right in the bread basket. LaMelo ball, by the way. Three ball. 87102. Still a 15-point game, man. Every time I want to sit here and get comfortable. Orange is doing some nonsense. Hart firing from a mid-range. Jesus, that barely hit the front of the rim. Right in the hands of Ball. Ball bounce pass. Risky pass to McNeely. And there will call the foul on Hart. A little overzealous. Hornets trying to, you know, they’re trying to stay with it, but they can’t trade buckets. They got to do something on the defensive end, man. Uh, Lee grew in Charlotte’s market long ago, Chuck. Which is why they got to take a page out of the OKC book, man. Got to all it’s all got to be selfgrown. And that’s why I like the draft that they had this year. They had a solid draft of a group of rookies and LaMelo Ball and one from way downtown. Four-point play on the way. But yeah, Chuck, yeah, this is not a team that’s going to get star and marquee free agents. So, you got to pull the OKC way and just draft your way into notoriety, get the right guys, develop them. And I feel like in their first year, first full season with the new front office and new head coach, they’re they did the right thing. So, we’ll see, man. But seems like the more praise I give them, the the hotter they get because they have a opportunity here to cut this lead to 11. But right now, they’re going to review that foul. I honestly I think LaMelo made a good shot and he crunched before the defense even touched him. So, I don’t see the foul. Hold on. Oh god. Oh god. All right. There’s your answer from Tyler. I missed it. I missed it. I missed it. I missed it. I missed it. Yeah, that to me that’s I don’t if if anything maybe it’s Yeah, it’s just the one free throw and the three which is I think what they call no flagrant there. It’s hard to call that from that spot that he shot it from too in general like what what is what is considered your landing area when you’re shooting it from damn near the sideline. You know what I’m saying? So he will just shoot the and one free throw after making the three ball to possibly cut it down to 11. And the Knicks need to wake up. LaMelo Ball trying to spoil the Knicks wireto-wire win here. 15 to 15 from the free throw line are the Charlotte Hornets. But the Knicks now need to wake up. Carl Anthony Towns handing it off to Deuce McBride. McBride pass picked up by my my good friend Diabate. gets the ball right back. Look, look at Deuce with a T. Oh, but he misses it. But he will pick up a foul. Free throws on the way for Deuce to slow it down. Ties. He said minority owner is a double onandre. You right, you right. You’re right. You’re right. Minority owner cuz Michael. You got it. You got it. Deuce in the first of two. TK, you on Twitch? I am on Twitch, too. Shout out to B Mills, Honcho over there, BKNY, Frankie over there. So, the Clippers tonight said CP3 really was the problem. Feeling uh Did they Oh, they’re Oh, yeah. They’re cooking the the the Hawks right now, huh? But it’s the Hawks. Melo Ball looking up. Oh, throws an alley to saloon. And my god. Yeah, man. Knicks need to wake up here. I mean, we could play the trading game. Muel Bridges getting ready to check back in. The Hornets right there are just at the cusp. They’re winning the scoring margins of this quarter. 1814. Jordan Clarkson with the fake. Clarkson picked up by Dab Diabate, excuse me. Clarkson to the paint. Throws it up. No good. Rebounded by Canuple. Canuple extra pass to McNeely. McNeely thought about it. McNeely losing the handle. Canuple’s going to pick it up. He has options. He’s trying to look for somebody. Back out to ball. And now ball picked up by Clarkson. The Hornets looking to cut it down to ninepoint lead. Oh my goodness. The double step back from Ball. It’s way short. Please get it Towns. And he will. Towns handing it over Brunson. Hart Hart back the ball. Heart over to Towns. Towns from the K on the Knicks logo. Barely touches the rim. We don’t need that shot right now. Bodega, we’re winning. McNeely hands it over to Ball. Ball goes right into Brunson. Wraps it over to Saloon. Saloon fires from three and Saloon hasn’t looked this good in the two years that he was drafted and cuts the lead down to eight. You can hear the whispers in the garden right now like, “Oh, here come the Knicks again. Doing this thing again.” Josh Hart finding Clarkson. Clarkson the deuce. Need this one from Deuce. Make Bride and Deuce getting those three right back. Couldn’t have asked for a better time. LaMelo now going to step into a three of his own. That’s no good. Rebounded by Towns. Towns feeding it to Brunson. Brunson just one man to beat. Brunson should attack him, but Brunson decided to bring it back out, but the defense doesn’t even help. But Brunson with a smart move. The defense just stagnant. Brunson realizes that and goes right back at him. Resets and attacks and gets the foul. Beautiful play from Jaylen Brunson there. I was going to say, I’m like, Brunson, why didn’t you just attack? Cuz he said, CK, look at the defense, man. Nobody getting back. I’mma get this foul real quick in the and one. That’s why you the captain. Uh JB, my fault. Do your thing, player. He said, “You hear?” Yeah, we the step kids of KFTV. No, bro. No, no, no, no. Shout out to Twitch, bro. Shout out to Twitch fan TV. Shout out to the CK Twitch fam. I appreciate all of y’all. Trust the captain CK. You right, Wisdom. My fault, man. That was a beautiful move from El Capitan. LaMelo Ball. He is not going away. How many points does he have? I’m scared to look. LaMelo. I feel like he got all the points right now in this game. LM Oh, he got 33. 12 of 26. He cleaned up his field goal percentage after how raggedy he looked to start. Brunson lobbing it to Bridges. Bridges. I just realized that you guys don’t have the stats up. No one said nothing. My fault. Oh god. Oh god. I lost the game. Oh god. But Hart made the bucket. I’m assuming Hart made the bucket the way he’s backpedaling. So 112 to 98. Canelo off the drive. Canelo going right after Deuce. Missing everything. Towns rebounding push. Bridges. Oh, he’s going to shoot this in the transition. It’s way short. Knicks keep [ __ ] their three balls. 14-point game. Not the best shot attempt there. Almost turned over from Brunson, but Ball’s going to keep it. LaMelo Ball trying to get in his bag. Throws it up right over Brunson. No good. Rebounded by Hart. Hart saves it to Brunson. And now the Knicks can start to sigh a breath of relief here cuz it seems like now the Knicks got their momentum back. The Hornets slowing down a little bit. Timeout called by Mike Brown to give the Knicks a little bit of a break. But it seems the momentum swinging back towards the New York Knicks got a little dicey there as the Hornets found a groove. But it might have been too little too late. Knicks back in control. Back in control, excuse me. What up, Kush? I was listening and woodworking until now. Nice. What we working on? What we working on? Only 12 points from the bench. Nasty work. Oh my god. You’re right. Yeah. Colick with six. Clarkson with six. You’re right. Cat taking logo threes. Yeah, we don’t need that player. We don’t need that. Nicks without a good PG like Cadet and Trey Young or Cade and Trey Young can’t be a contender. You just say Nicks without a good PG. What the hell? Oh my god. No way. What? Anyways, uh this that Mike Brown offense trying to get 63s. Oh man, we finding things to complain about. Knicks right now doing what they’re supposed to do. handling business. Uh this is why I can’t take cat. Uh terrible three-point attempt early in the clock when you trying to burn time. Yeah. And also from the spot he took the three on too. Uh they took Huck out because he was locking up LaMelo. Oh, I was like I don’t think we had a choice. He fouled out. But you’re saying that they fouled him out? Gotcha. H Miguel Bridges should be on LaMelo Ball. Well, Bridges just checked in. Who Who is he guarding? He’s probably on Canle. Who is Who is on LaMelo? Is it Deuce? I’m not mad at Deuce. I’ll pay attention. I’ll pay attention to this one. All I say, you know, I’ve been watching the Knicks for the past three to four years. How you going to say we don’t have a PG, right, bro? That’s what I’m saying. Threw me off, man. 98112. We got 219 left in the game. Knicks looking to get another Madison Square Garden victory here tonight. Santis said woodworking. Let my let my man let my man do his thing, bro. Uh they took Yeah. Yeah. Um as long as we’re winning, who cares? Yeah. Yu hasn’t played at this half. Oh well. It’s okay. Here we go. Starting five still out there for the Knicks. Brunson off of the roll. I think the starters are out there as well for No, no, no. Those are not the starters. Bridges. Extra pass to Deuce. Should have gone over to Hart, but Deuce now gets to the paint finding Bridges. Mid-range pull for Bridges. Can’t get it to fall. Rebounded by Saloon. Saloon up to Canuple. Canelo going right after Brunson. Shoots it and Bridges there for the B. No, they’re going to call a foul. Interesting foul call there. I thought Bridges did a good job there defensively, but Canuple Canuple does not look like an NBA player, bro. Peace and love. I peace and love, bro. This dude does not look like an NBA player in the slightest, man. I Bro is a hell of a shooter, though. Bro is a hell of a shooter, but man, Cyber Kos said, “We never had a good center in the 80s and 90s, too, CK.” Ah, okay. Ref Ball is back. Still a 12-point lead for the Knicks. A minute 55 remains. Knicks need to get good shot selections down the stretch and don’t need to shoot them so early. The Knicks said, “Yes, we do.” CK Towns getting a big bucket quick and in a hurry. Flex is on the camera. Here come the Knicks. Back to defense. M LaMelo loses it. Stolen away. Towns with his second. Oh, he got Q with the dunk. Whoa. Whoa. And oh, Deuce almost gets the steal instead. They’re going to call a foul. It’s going to be on the ground though. Laamela tried to get cute and trying to make it a shooting foul, but it’s definitely foul on the ground. Mike Brown can’t believe it. But look at Carl Anthony Towns. He’s like, “Can Yiannis do this?” He said, “Yeah, but can Yiannis do this?” Okay, Carl Anthony Towns having his game of the year. 50% from the field, 43 from three, 17 rebounds, 31 points, a plus 16. Ganthony Towns playing in the break. Oh, cat said we got y’ at home. Facts, bro. Yo, Cat would have this kind of game today, bro. I This It’s I You know, and I swear if this dude proceeds to just have a stinker in Utah, man, thinking that he escaped, I’m it’s I’m going to be pissed, bro. 10 116 101 15-point lead for the Knicks. Yes, we’re back in action Friday against the Utah Jazz. Towns thought about it. Towns out to Bridges and the Knicks now finally trying to cut some clock down. Hopefully get a good looking shot. Kick ball ref. No kickball called there. What the was that by Hart Hart jump past to nobody and then the the the Hornets to not be outdone. What is Oh, Benny Hill. Oh, we got it. Look at what is what is this? What the hell? Oh my god. No. We here. Just Can we just end this game, bro? Can we just end this game, man? What is going on? Josh Hart with the most athletic looking layup I have seen. It’s an and one. It’s an and one. Let’s go, Hart. 118 101. Oh, what a what a run. What a run. Knicks needed this though, man. Tyler Kohic checking in. Bridges, oh, sorry, Brunson’s night is over. The captain a lot better in this game. A much needed turnaround game for Jaylen Brunson. Diawara checking in. Seems like uh Brown is emptying the bench. Rightfully so. Powerman with the and one. That thing was cute, man. He got He got funky with that layup. Got to make this free throw for me, Mr. Hart. Thank you. 119 101. Under a minute left. Both teams emptying the bench. You know, I tip my cap to the Charlotte Hornets on that final stretch. can’t lie, made the Knicks sweat just a little bit, but got to give the Knicks credit, too, for surviving. And Saloon having probably his best game of his young career here in Madison Square Garden. A lot of people were curious about why the Hornets went and selected him so high two drafts ago. And nights like tonight are why they looked at him. Kick finding Hart. Hart looking around. Hart keeping the ball, finding Deuce. Deuce, who had a nice night here tonight, goes right to the rim. Oh my goodness. Scoop that super high under the shot clock. Time left. We got 19 seconds remain. And of course, the Knicks would foul instead of just let this game wrap up. Here goes KJ Simpson who’s fouled by Tyler Kolic. I assume that we’re going to get the remainder of the Knicks bench to check in here with these free throws. But unless there is a computer glitch, unless we have a power outage, or unless this is all a dream, this game is all but over and the New York Knicks are going to advance to 14-7 on the season. and they’re going to continue their hot ways in Madison Square Garden as we look into our next game against the Utah Jazz on Friday. Hopefully that one could be a no-brainer. But the Jazz love to give teams that they play work for their make them work for their money. But here we go. Tyler Koh dribbling it out. The New York Knicks getting the win. Carl Anthony Towns, you would ask how did he respond to the rumors? Well, I’d say he responded pretty well. 35 and 18, shooting 57% from the field. I would say he handled it really well. But with the win, you know what that means? Hit the music. Your New York Knicks 14 and seven. I think with the way that everything transpired today, Cavaliers losing to the Blazers, Magic losing to the Spurs, uh, the Mavericks could also do us a favor and take out the Heat. The Knicks, you know, Pistons. Oh, Pistons. We kind of need the Bucks to win that game. But the Knicks should go back up to second or third today. But we got to let the dust settle before we see what our standing is. But more importantly, your New York Knicks win the second game of this back-to-back. Unfortunately, losing to Boston, but we forget about that. We move on with that. Shout out to everybody in the chat. Shout out to my new members, man. We had some new members join the crew today. Look at all the Frenchmen on the floor right now. A lot of French players out there showing love. But shout out to Santana. Shout out to Marcus Miller. I appreciate you guys.

Welcome to the terror dome hosted by a franchise for the colors that we bleed in the field. The pressure is insanity cuz we don’t do L’s n and it’s everything they said it would be. The lights get even brighter than you’d ever believe. Yeah, it’s game time. Is you built for this? These colors is forever infinite. Blue and orange everything. Heat. Heat.
