## Resource

LeBron James is heading to Philadelphia, and the stunning decision immediately changes the Knicks’ path through the Eastern Conference. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash react to LeBron joining Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown and Tyrese Maxey, debate whether the Sixers are now New York’s biggest threat, and explain why this move puts LeBron’s legacy on the line. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts. Evan and Shaun also restore the full context behind Bryce Harper’s viral comments about the Mets, turning outrage into an indictment of how David Stearns dismantled the team’s identity. Harper’s praise for Don Mattingly sparks another debate over whether Carlos Beltran or Albert Pujols is the type of former star the Mets need as their next manager. Plus, a Giants fan delivers a fired-up prediction about the defense under Jim Harbaugh, with an unexpected landscaping lesson along the way.
