The Knicks take a 2-0 series lead as injury concerns mount for OG Anunoby, while Ryan Weathers’ sudden illness and John Morgan’s macabre memorabilia collection lead into a fiery clash between Tiki Barber and Hugh Douglas.

The Mets beat the Rockies as Juan Soto led the game off with a HR.
All the ballparks now have a viral food item that they sell. The Rockies have a $45 hotdog called the Glizzilla, and last night Steve Gelbs and Keith Hernandez shared one...Lady & The Tramp style. Plus, a caller on the Embiid injury.
Jerry returns for an update and starts with Tiki Barber telling Joel Embiid to ‘stop being a bitch’. Former NFL player and WIP host Hugh Douglas responded to those comments. He brought up Tiki wearing ‘red kinky boots’. The Sixers are favored by 1 tomorrow night.
If the injury is serious (and we don't know anything as of this broadcast), this puts the Knicks in a serious bind because of what a catalyst he is on the court.
