Is Jalen Brunson’s ball dominance actually elevating the Knicks, or quietly holding them back? Rami and Bryce debate (0:00). Then, Mikal Bridges had one strong half that Rami is overreacting to (13:10), plus real credit to Jordan Clarkson’s evolution and how Mike Brown is maximizing him (15:37). And with home court looming large, do the Knicks have a real path to chasing down the Boston Celtics for the 2-seed (26:35)

Rami Lavi and Bryce Gelman are joined by John Jastremski of the Ringer's "New York, New York" podcast on today's episode. The guys break down their biggest threats to the Knicks in the Eastern Conference, how impressed they've been by Karl-Anthony Towns lately, and whether they'd bet New York to make the finals. Plus, they work in a conversation about Aaron Judge's ineptitude in big moments and JJ & Bryce have an aside on the disastrous coaching search at their alma mater, Syracuse.  

JJ joins the guys to talk all things Knicks. They also sprinkle in some Aaron Judge and Syracuse talk. 

Rami and Bryce discuss Josh Hart's 33-point game against the Pacers and wonder if this is a sign to keep him in the starting lineup. Also, they give their flowers to Karl-Anthony Towns. 

The inaugural episode of Knicks for Clicks is here. Rami Lavi and Bryce Gelman launch the podcast by explaining how they met, why they both became obsessed with the Knicks, and why the NBA’s most talked-about team deserved a show of its own. Then SNY’s Sal Licata joins the conversation to break down his viral “Mike Clown” take about Mike Brown, Karl-Anthony Towns’ inconsistency, whether it’s even possible to bench Josh Hart, and the biggest topic of all — the early disappointment surrounding Mikal Bridges. The guys close out with Sal’s expectations and prediction for the Knicks moving forward.

The guys welcome on Sal Licata as the first guest of "Knicks For Clicks"

Rami and Bryce set the scene for what is to come on "Knicks For Clicks".
