It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. And we're coming to you live from the Built Forward Tough Studio, Boomer Esiason, Greg Giannotti. It's Boomer and Geo on the fans, simulcast across the country on CBS Sports Network and wherever you are on the free Odyssey app. Good Thursday morning. Sometimes in a long NBA regular season, you get a peek into what the playoffs might look like. A couple of teams that are actually trying on both ends of the floor with superstars who... Do not want to lose, and you got that last night at the Garden with the Knicks and the Denver Nuggets and great players all around, superstars that are showing up in big moments. And I think because we've talked so much about the coach and Carl Anthony Towns, we have...
Not forgotten, but we haven't talked enough about Jalen Brunson and how great he is. And when you have him, you can just do about anything. And he is someone that I trust once they go into the playoffs. And maybe he puts the whole team and Carl Anthony Towns on his back and wins an NBA title like he did last night in winning this game in double overtime. NBA trade deadline, 3 o'clock today. We will see if any huge moves happen. Knicks make a minor move. Rangers make a big move. Trading the bread, man. We'll get to all of it. Good morning, Boomer. How are you? Yeah, good morning, Jay.
I'm doing all right.
And that game last night was amazing. It was absolutely an amazing game. And Jalen Brunson, once again, shows you why the Knicks thought so highly of him a few years back when they got him from Dallas. You know, the thing I would say now as we head into the trade deadline, where is Giannis going to go? Is Giannis going to go? The Warriors have pulled out of the Giannis sweepstakes. They did acquire Porzingis, who may now win another championship. Well, you know... Warriors are trying, but they've got a lot of really good teams in the West there. They do, but they ended up making a couple trades. Now it seems like if there is going to be a trade, from everything that you've read, everything that I've read, everything we hear from Shams and every other NBA insider, I would say that Minnesota is likely, if they're going to get something done before this afternoon,
Yeah, so they're the team that seems to be the most aggressive right now because they know that they can give a better package than some of the teams like the Knicks and Miami can give right now as opposed to at the end of the year where more assets are allowed to be traded. It's all a funky thing when it comes to the NBA. So yeah, it feels like the Minnesota Timberwolves are desperate, more desperate than the other teams to get it done. And then if it doesn't happen right now, it's not our problem. It's the Bucs and Giannis' problem. And then we'll see how it goes. And I would love that because then we'll see what this team is under Mike Brown for a postseason. And then you'll have Giannis still on the Bucs knowing that he's going to get traded in the summer.
And if it doesn't work out, then you're like, okay, we can switch it up. You know Giannis wants to come here and give it a shot with a different roster that way. So, and the other point, too, from a Knicks perspective is like – This seems like this is the team.
How did Jalen Brunson's performance impact the Knicks' win?
This is it. Like nothing's happening. Unless they make another minor trade for some bench person or player or whatever. I'm not really sure. But it looks like and it feels like that this is the team. And by virtue of the fact that they've won eight games in a row now, they played well. They got Detroit now on Friday night. Detroit's playing tonight. So Detroit will be coming off of a back-to-back. The Knicks obviously in double overtime last night off of a back-to-back. That would be a real good test for the Knicks to see where they are and how close they are to the Detroit Pistons. But it really does feel like this is the team. Now, you've got to wonder. They've heard about all the noise around them. They obviously read and they see social media.
So you would think that guys like Bridges and Ananobi and Carl Anthony Towns have been reading the last two and a half weeks about how they could be part of a trade package going somewhere else.
