In this rapid reaction episode, the crew breaks down the Knicks’ frustrating Game 2 loss to the Pistons—a game that slipped away despite Jalen Brunson’s 37-point performance. A stagnant third-quarter offense, a nonexistent bench, and a lopsided whistle all contributed to a loss that felt entirely avoidable. With the series now tied 1–1 and momentum shifting toward Detroit, Andrew and Gerard unpack what went wrong, what needs to change, and where the Knicks go from here. It’s all part of the ride—one Knicks fans know all too well.
