## Resource

First Take begins with the Knicks first loss in over a month! Are the officials swallowing their whistles (then randomly calling segments of the game tight), Wemby's heightened play, or KATs regression to blame for the loss? Then, if the refs are allowing head punches, an abundance of hand checking not seen since early 2000s Artest, and one sided flagrant fouls, who does it favor? Next, is Sam Presti coming to SGA's defense over social media bullies the right or wrong move? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
