Can the Knicks Finally Escape Their Loser Franchise Label?
Podcast: Evan & TikiPublished On: Tue May 12 2026
Description: The Knicks are rolling through the postseason, but not everyone is ready to believe in them. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Paul Pierce’s blunt dismissal of New York’s championship hopes and debate whether the franchise’s painful history should still define this current team. The conversation digs into the tension between old scars and present dominance, from the Knicks’ impressive playoff point differential to the lingering fear that another crushing ending is waiting. Evan also weighs what it would feel like to witness a Knicks title in person, while callers question whether fan optimism, past heartbreak, and even Positive Tommy could become part of the story.
