The Knicks lost a disappointing game 2 to the Pistons. Gio thinks Thibs is watching the type of team he wants to coach in the Pistons, beat the team he's actually coaching in the Knicks. Karl-Anthony Towns was a non-factor in the fourth quarter, which is unacceptable. There's just been something off with the Knicks all year long. ‘It's been off and it's been weird' according to Gio. Gio is jealous of the way the Pistons played. Boomer thinks OG Anunoby was pissed at not getting the ball late in the game. Gio didn't like how Thibs blamed the officials after the game.
Jerry has the sounds of the Knicks losing at MSG. Thibs talked about rebounding being the difference in the game. The Mets beat the Phillies and Francisco Lindor hit 2 more home runs and now has a lead off HR in two straight games.

Knicks lose to the Pistons, but where were the adjustments and coaching from Thibs?

Hour 2 Gio isn't overly concerned about Devin Williams' early struggles, recalling Edwin Diaz's initial adjustment in New York.

A caller shared details about Masters ticket prices and pickup. Jerry joked about shooting a 150 at Augusta. C-Lo's update included the Yankees' win. The show discussed Chris Russo's disbelief over Cody Bellinger's hotel chicken wing order and Keith McPherson's unfamiliarity with "scuttlebutt." Zach Gelb interviewed Ian Eagle about his and his son's Emmy nominations. Luka Doncic's 45-point return was mentioned again. The final segment covered the Rangers missing the playoffs, which annoyed Al last year, and the current Giants draft talk also bothers him, with a question raised about the lack of Jets quarterback draft discussion. Hour 3 Justin Fields addressed media questions about the Jets potentially drafting a quarterback, stating he doesn't answer rhetorical questions but is open to teaching. Jerry believes Fields still needs instruction himself. The Steelers lack a quarterback, and Aaron Rodgers didn't appear at Pat McAfee's Pittsburgh show. The upcoming Kickoff to Summer show was mentioned. C-Lo's update covered Masters practice rounds. Allen Lazard is staying with the Jets on a reduced contract. DeShaun Watson claimed doubters will be proven wrong, but Gio called him a "slimeball loser." The show also pondered OnlyFans' profitability despite free content. The hour concluded with a discussion about Al Leiter's field in Bayville, NJ, where Jerry's son recently played, noting Al's funding of the field. Hour 4 Thibs' job might be in jeopardy if the Knicks underperform in the playoffs, especially with Michael Malone available. The Rangers will have a new coach next season, highlighting the NHL's trend of rehiring coaches. The show questioned why good coaches are repeatedly fired instead of addressing player issues. A caller described an agent interacting with OnlyFans customers. Another asked Gio about breathing magnets, which didn't help him; he plans to try mouth "hostage tape." C-Lo's final update included Adam Schein's anger at optimism following the Knicks' loss to the Celtics, Jason Day's correction of a reporter's phrase, and the disappointment of Sam Rosen missing playoff games in his final season. The Moment of the Day was a humorous suggestion of an OnlyFans featuring Fred Couples. The show concluded with a discussion about golf spectators getting hit by stray balls.

Thibs could be on the hotseat if things don't go well in the playoffs, with recently fired Nuggets head coach Michael Malone available. If they don't get out of the first round or get swept in the second round Thibs could be gone. The Rangers will no doubt have a new head coach next season. NHL head coaches get fired all the time and get rehired again. It's a retread coach league. Some people think Torts will be back. Why do we keep firing coaches we know are good? Shouldn't we get rid of the players instead?
