Come on. Brunson handled it well. You could say he handled that question better than he handled the Indiana pressure in the series. Brunson was, was good, obviously. I think he's leading the NBA in playoff scoring. He's had a great postseason. I, I do think we need a little less Brunson next year. Maybe lean on our bench more. I saw a stat that the Knicks starters this season average like 97 points per game, which was the highest in the NBA in like 48 years. News flash, Thibodeau, you got to make some more changes. And I've been yelling from the rooftops. Tibbs, you got to put up or shut up. He beat Boston, guys. They took down the defending champs. Like, let's not gloss over that fact. I know Tatum got hurt, but the Knicks were in control of that series anyway at that point. So I'm actually here as the commander in truth to tell you. Knicks, we're not going after Giannis. Knicks, we don't need Kevin Durant. I think the pieces are in place for the Knicks to get back to the conference finals and extend to the NBA Finals next year. Let me remind you, Giannis is going to be shipped from Milwaukee and there's a good chance he goes West. Although there is a team in the east we're going to talk about that's making a move on him currently. But, like the Cleveland Cavaliers, do they scare you? Do the Pacers really terrify you? They had a great series, but the Celtics, the best team in the east by far. They're going to be without Jason Tatum next year due to the Achilles. The east is wide open. And oh, by the way, Knicks fans, I know we're upset. Quick reminder, we were favored in the series against the Pacers. And oh, by the way, game one, if the Knicks don't blow a 14 point lead in the final three minutes, what, what happens in that series? Do things go in a different direction? Like, the Knicks are close, they're right there. And sometimes, New York fans, the best move is to do nothing. So Commander in truth says Knicks, Stan, Pat, No Giannis, no kd. We're good. All right, let's move to the NFL. And a much dicier topic that is not very rosy, and that's the Cleveland Browns. And I'm sure there's a segment of the NFL population already sick of the Shador Sanders talk. I know for a fact Kevin Stefanski is, because he's going to be facing questions about it all week at OTAs. Folks, Deion Sanders is an unbelievable football talent. And he looks like he's a pretty damn good head coach, too. As a kid growing up, I remember Deion Sanders. He was unbelievable, okay? With the Falcons, with the Niners, like, just a great career. The one thing I liked, which is not serving him well now, is that he loved to run his mouth. I love trash talking. Yes. I play in men's basketball leagues. Sometimes I run my mouth too much. I, I, I've dialed it back in my advanced age. Dion, you need to do the same. My guy. So Deion Sanders was on a podcast this week, the say what Needs to Be Said podcast. Meanwhile, we haven't heard from Dion about his son, about the Browns since the draft. Take a deep breath, folks, because Dion's talking again. Here's what he had to say. When you sit up there and say something like, he went in a meeting unprepared. Like, dude, Shador Sanders, who's had six different coordinators, stop lying. Like, you gotta understand, my kids are built for everything. They want to create these narratives and create these stories and then attach them to a kid that ain't never done nothing wrong. You gonna tell me he had on headphones? Shadors, Anybody know my son? Understand? He's a professional. Like, he's gonna go into a meeting with headphones on, like, yo, come on. It did hurt. Not good. Not good at all. This, my friends, is why Shador Sanders fell in the draft. I thought it was probably 50% Dion. 50% Shador. I'm now thinking NFL teams front offices were just like, no, thank you on Shador Sanders precisely because of this. Folks, it's the beginning of June, and Deon is already complaining about his son and what went down at the draft. And you know, there are teams that passed on Dion this morning. That's why we didn't want him. Joe Shane and Brian Dabel. Look at their owner. I told you, we don't need this crap. And again, I'm not going to challenge what Deion said. It doesn't really matter. Did he wear headphones to a meeting with a team? I don't know. That seems like something weird to make up for a team. But Deion's pushback is. Oh, would he wear headphones to a meeting? Well, he either did or didn't. And oh, by the way, this whole. He had six offensive coordinators. That's not denying what went down at the meeting. Him being unprepared. And again, Shador has an uphill climb in Cleveland, and I think a lot of it has to do with exactly what Dion's saying on this podcast. So Kevin Stefanski is going to show up at OTAs this week, and he's not going to get asked about, hey, how's Myles Garrett looking? And the defense? What's up with Nick Chubb? Have you made a decision? How about the wide receiver room? You know, a lot of change there. Eddie, quarterback update. It's not going to be any of that. It's going to be. So Deion Sanders said this, and now you're getting questions about your fourth string quarterback in June. And, folks, it ain't going to end here. This is going to continue anytime. Deion steps in front of a microphone. Nobody cares about the Colorado Buffaloes right now. Travis Hunter's in the NFL. Shador's gone. You know what they're going to ask Deion. Hey, you know, Kenny Pickett threw three picks at a preseason game. Dion, your thoughts? And Deon, who has a history of talking, that's. I mean, that's what made him famous. That's why it's primetime. You think he's gonna be able to stand down and pull back? Folks, it's sort of an analogy this morning, and I'm like, wait a sec. So Arch Manning at Texas was beat out in back to back years by Quinn Ewers. And you could argue, hey, he was a young guy. Okay, fine. But, you know, in Texas fans, there were a lot of them ready for Arch Manning and Arch Manning's parents, and Peyton and Eli. All the Mannings, they've done a ton of interviews. They're on red carpets all the time. They could have easily said he should have been the guy over Quinn. Well, you know, Quinn, you were struggling against Georgia. Why. Why didn't Arch get the start easily? Anybody in the Manning clan could have popped up and said something. Nothing. They stayed out of it. They powered down and they let their kid figure it out. Hey, Dion, Shador is now 23 years old. I'm not telling a grown man what to do, but it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, Dion, if you. Next time you were asked about it, hey, man, I wish my son the best. I will be rooting for him hard. I'm a Cleveland Browns fan. Go Browns. On to the next question. Just stop. All you're doing is hurting Chador. And oh, by the way, do you remember Shador Sanders talked about this exact thing recently. Here's a video 99 of hatred is, you know, towards Pops. And then I'm just, you know, I'm just his son. So it really just come from.
