You obviously don't have them making the finals.

What do you think the ramifications would be for the Knicks if they fall short of where they got last year?

All right, last thing for you, KOC.

My buddy Nick Wright, he upset some people with his word choice, with clown on LaMelo.

I think it was a little silly how people got so upset.

I'm like, so would you be okay if you would have said knucklehead?

Like, it was like clownish behavior, whatever.

But that aside...

He's been in the league six years, and two nights ago was the biggest game of his life, which means tonight is now the next biggest game of his life.

And if they make it to the playoffs, those will be the biggest games of his life.

And the playoffs are where you actually get to set your narrative at large for who you are as a player in this league.

What do you expect LaMelo to do as the casuals come in and start taking in his game for the first time, given that this is the brightest spotlight he's ever had?

1979, that was a big moment for me.

84 was big to me.

It was a wild year.

I don't think there's a more important year for black people.

A win is a win.

A win is a win.

I don't care what y'all say.
