Tiki Barber

Your New York Yankees.

All right.

No matter what the Yankees do in the regular season, you're going to look at your team and say, that doesn't matter until October.

Yeah.

And probably even more so because of the coaching change.

Because they made a change at head coach with the clear line of, hey, we better get to an NBA finals.

We fired our head coach after losing in the Eastern Conference finals.

And so I think the Knick fan in a lot of ways has morphed into the Yankee fan where you're more critical of your team and you're more impatient.

Like...

you're saying go win in the postseason.

And what I'm trying to tell you is you can't win in the postseason during the regular season.

There's nothing you can do.

Look at the Yankees, and we're going to get into them later.

There's nothing they can do.

Nothing that they can do in April, May, June, July, August, and September that's going to make the non-believer believe.

And so I kind of think it runs the same way with the Knicks.

If you don't believe in this team, whether it's Kat and Jalen Brunson who have looked very different on the floor together over the last few games, or it's their defense, or whatever it is,

There's nothing that's going to change that in the regular season.

So I think the Knicks fan, in a lot of ways, and I say this with an aye-aye, an aye-aye, an independent aye.

No, I think there should, and I think that what we have experienced as a roller coaster, and we have tried, I have certainly tried, to stay kind of looking straight ahead on this roller coaster through the ups and the downs, which is nothing has changed.
