Plus — Marcus Morris is back! The longtime NBA veteran rejoined the KOC Show, and didn’t hold back on anything. Kevin had Marcus play “Double Down or Walk It Back,” in regard to the many HOT takes Marcus has uncorked over the last 2 months. Do the Thunder really lack the depth to win a title? Is Tyrese Haliburton the next SGA? Nikola Jokic is NOT Top 20 all-time? The Luka and LeBron pairing will definitely work? Get your popcorn ready… Marcus and KOC absolutely brought it.
Lastly Kevin’s longtime pal Tate Frazier stops by to talk about the NBA Draft, which is now just a month away. Could the Spurs figure out a way to make Dylan Harper work? Is there any chance at all that the Dallas Mavericks would at least LISTEN if the Bucks called offering Giannis for #1 overall? Who are the biggest DEEP sleepers at each position? Which shooters in the Draft should the Orlando Magic target? Who should the Minnesota Timberwolves draft? Nearly every prospect that declared for the 2025 NBA Draft is discussed in some manner on this awesome convo with basketball guru Tate Frazier.

Knicks trade ideas: Giannis? KD? A Mavs deal? 3 moves that can get New York over the top
It’s a question New York Knicks fans and longtime owner James Dolan have to ask themselves: Who do you want running the Knicks: Leon Rose the agent or Leon Rose the exec?Because this Knicks team faces some difficult decisions this summer, and the most seismic ones revolve around clients of CAA, the agency that Rose used to run, starting with Karl-Anthony Towns.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementRose’s deep ties to CAA, as I detailed in depth back in October, helped push New York to the doorstep of the NBA Finals. Before the season, the Knicks president most notably acquired Towns, who was once Rose’s top-earning client among a star-studded fleet of athletes when Rose was an agent.Among league insiders, the Knicks’ loyalty to CAA has been one of the strongest undercurrents of the NBA landscape.
