The Knicks Need to Change Their Starting Line-up

Dave DuFour and Es Baraheni check in following an Eastern Conference Finals rematch between the Cavaliers & Knicks and discuss a short-handed Warriors team hanging with the Houston Rockets.

Then, NBA Senior Writer Sam Amick joins the show to discuss: Miami’s tumultuous west coast trip, Giannis Antetokounmpo’s relationship with Doc Rivers, Domantas Sabonis seemingly quitting on the Kings, Sacramento’s roster inflexibility, Doug Christie’s future as the team’s head coach and whether Sam would like to issue an apology for doubting San Antonio’s three-guard line-up & Walker Kessler’s impact on the Lakers.
