The boys talk about the NBA-Cup-Champion-Era-Knicks and how they’ve handled the games that followed their victorious run in Vegas. Brunson’s continued heroics, McBride’s absence, Robinson’s free throw streak, and Kolek’s growth are just a few of the topics that get discussed. And cookie talk. Lots of cookie talk. This quite possibly could be the greatest podcast ever recorded in history.

A day removed from the NBA Emirates Cup Final, Barry, Blandy, and Christian rehash the merits of the in-season tournament and the value of winning the cup.  They discuss Brunson’s class, Clarkson’s glimmer, and Kolek’s balls.  They also weigh in on the ridiculous banner controversy, and Blandy is about to be in cookie heaven.

The Knicks got off to a shaky start on their road trip in their loss to Miami. The boys talk a little about that game and how the Knicks might fare against their upcoming opponents. Ralph calls in and makes his season debut. An injury filled "Around The NBA with Blanderson Hooper" and Barry still thinks that Jalen Brunson better be f*cking Mickey Mouse.
