The stakes are high on Wednesday evening at the world's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden. Perhaps nobody embraces the villain role more than Trae Young as he and the Atlanta Hawks visit the Big Apple versus the New York Knicks. 

At stake, bragging rights and advancement to compete for the 2nd Annual In-Season Tournament and the Emirates Cup. 

DeShaun Tate and Tenitra Batiste are here for it all to breakdown the results of easily one of the NBA's fastest and fiercest growing rivalries including ATL's consistent bench production/contribution, the area(s) nobody's talking about that has led to the Hawks' recent success, why Trae has been so successful in New York, a preview of Saturday's meeting versus Milwaukee & why they like Atlanta's chances to survive & advance plus a little hint of shade thrown for the Hawks/Trae haters.
