Back to EpisodesKnicks come home for game 3, Victor Wembanyama Backlash, World Cup Fever heats up | 06.08
Description
Bomani Jones breaks down why the New York Knicks suddenly look like a completely different team in the NBA Finals, why they feel inevitable with a 2-0 lead, and why this run is starting to feel a lot bigger than anyone expected.
Bo also gives Karl-Anthony Towns his proper credit, arguing that KAT has been the best player on the floor, while pushing back on the easy Victor Wembanyama criticism by explaining how much of his rough night was really about the Knicks’ size, physicality, and defense.
From there, Bo and Ryan get into the huge NBA Finals ratings bump, what Victor’s star power means for the league, why the World Cup’s dangerous heat is becoming one of the tournament’s biggest storylines, and why Anthropic’s warning about powerful AI sounds a lot less crazy than people want to admit.
