The New York Knicks battled hard against one of the hottest teams in the NBA. Unfortunately, the basketball gods decided today was the day the Knicks finally ran out of point guards. 

Alex Wolfe and Gavin Schall discuss the Los Angeles Clippers' loss and why an injury to Cam Payne was ultimately the straw that broke the camel's back. They also explore Tom Thibodeau's scheming up some magic in the first half, Josh Hart's leveraging momentum into playmaking, Karl-Anthony Towns' shot-making, consistent creative finishing from OG Anunoby, defensive lapses, and more flashes from Tyler Kolek.
