The Knicks raised their championship banner, received their rings, and then immediately lost their season opener to the 76ers. But Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber aren't sounding the alarm. Evan, a proud Knicks hater, admits the loss didn't even bring him joy because the celebration was so much bigger than the game. With OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges, and Karl-Anthony Towns struggling, the question becomes how long Knicks fans can ride the championship high before another loss actually starts to hurt.
The emotional ceremony also leads Evan to a heartbreaking realization about Joe Namath and the Jets' fading connection to their last Super Bowl championship. Plus, Tiki explains why the Knicks may have been emotionally drained, the guys debate when a championship hangover becomes a legitimate concern, and Josh Hart's brutally sarcastic comments about the Knicks' 0-1 start raise questions about the urgency needed to defend their title.
