  RUMORS: Knicks STILL Pursuing Backup Centers + John Konchar Is GONE

  Oct 1, 202628 min

  New York Knicks eye Moussa Cissé as a potential game-changing backup center, reigniting hopes for added frontcourt depth before the season tips off. Could a last-minute cut from the Dallas Mavericks reshape the Knicks’ rotation, or will contract hurdles keep Cissé out of reach? Gavin Schall breaks down the Knicks’ latest trade rumors, exploring how Miles McBride’s contract and value could play into New York’s pursuit of another big man. Josh Hart’s lingering finger injury sparks fresh concerns about his shooting and long-term impact, while debate heats up over whether the Knicks should prioritize keeping McBride or extend Hart’s contract amid looming cap decisions. Additional topics include John Konchar’s surprise exit from training camp, the search for reserve centers like Mo Diabate and Karlo Maktovic, and how new signings Tyler Nickel and Kevin McCullar Jr. could influence the rotation. Are the Knicks prepared for the challenges ahead as real games return?

  The Knicks Will Extend Towns... But Here’s the Catch

  Sep 24, 202635 min

  The New York Knicks face a critical crossroads as Karl-Anthony Towns’ contract talks stall, raising big questions about their championship window. Will Towns accept a discount to keep the core together, or will salary cap tensions force tough roster choices? XJ unpacks the strategy behind the Knicks’ push for Towns to take less than his max, targeting flexibility for players like Deuce McBride and Josh Hart while managing the looming threat of the second apron. XJ discusses why Towns’ unique offensive skill set is irreplaceable, how Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby factor into New York’s elite playoff hopes, and what it means for fan favorites on the roster if management prioritizes luxury tax savings over continuity. Can the Knicks keep their contender status while balancing player contracts and ownership’s spending limits? 00:00 – The Knicks WILL extend KAT (just not yet) 01:24 – Congrats to Gavin!
