## Resource

Shaun is in for Tiki as Evan Roberts breaks down why Mitchell Robinson is no longer a Knick, arguing that the decision comes back to James Dolan and the second apron. The conversation digs into whether Dolan should have written the check, how much Mitch truly meant to the Knicks, and why fans can still appreciate him even after he lands with the Celtics. The hour also looks around the NBA as the Celtics move Jaylen Brown, the Sixers suddenly become a bigger threat, and the Nets face questions about their quiet offseason. Evan and Shaun take calls on the Knicks, Nets, Yankees, and Mets while mixing in plenty of detours, from Yankee Stadium parenting advice to a wild Paul Skenes trade idea.
