The Dummies are back as Will and LeeJay kick things off with some everyday frustration (yeah, gas prices are still wild) before jumping straight into the New York Knicks and their up-and-down playoff series with the Atlanta Hawks. When the Knicks keep it simple, they look like the better team… so why do they keep getting in their own way? The guys break down what’s working, what isn’t, and why Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns are at the center of everything.

From there, it turns into a bigger NBA conversation—tanking, the draft lottery, and why the same bad teams seem stuck in the same cycle every year. Is the system broken? And if it is, how do you even fix it?

The halftime topic goes a little off the rails (in a good way) as Will wants to know why some movie critics treat everything like it should be an Oscar contender.

We also hit on the NFL Draft and how the Giants and Jets fared. We then check-in on the New York Mets… which, yeah, things aren’t exactly great right now.

Please enjoy!
