The Knicks are on the verge of another NBA investigation, this time over the details of Rick Brunson’s promotion to a top assistant role in the same offseason his son, Jalen, took a huge pay cut. Front Office Sports reporter Alex Schiffer joins the show to explain why the Knicks view a potential investigation as “harassment” by the league and how this situation could play out.

We also hear from former Knicks GM Scott Perry, who weighs in on drama in the Eastern Conference and the rise of mid-market teams under the new CBA.
