Listen "Philly's Done, Bucks are Trading Giannis: Who ACTUALLY Rules the East?"

Episode Synopsis

BT & Sal dissect the wide-open Eastern Conference as the Knicks tip off, arguing that the predicted top-tier is misleading. While they respect the Cavaliers and an ascending Orlando Magic (a potential 50-win team!), they dismiss the Sixers and question the future of the Bucks amid Giannis trade rumors. The hosts turn their scrutiny to the Knicks, challenging the Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns tandem, asking if they have the championship DNA of a duo like Brunson and Giannis. They also blast the team's questionable opening night rest for key players like Josh Hart and Mitchell Robinson, with Sal voicing a strong suspicion that the center's injury is being "a little bit cute" and may be more serious. The pressure is on for the most talented Knicks roster of all-time to finally get it done!
