Knicks Closeout Detroit in 6 Behind Jalen Brunson's Filthy Crossover

Al and Ra are back, and the Knicks are moving on! In this playoff-packed episode of Knick Life Crisis, the guys break down Games 5 and 6 of the Knicks vs Pistons first-round series — from the electric MSG vibes to Jalen Brunson’s ice-cold game winner. Al shares the emotional rollercoaster of Game 6, while Ra dives into Hack-a-Mitch, foul trouble, and how the Knicks barely escaped in dramatic fashion.

The crew reflects on the highs and lows of the series, including standout (and not-so-standout) performances, and gets real about what needs to change heading into a brutal Eastern Conference Semifinal against the Boston Celtics. Expect a mix of strategy, storytelling, and the usual Crisis Corner chaos — including Luka’s defense, Clippers-Nuggets madness, and Halliburton’s dad catching strays online.

Oh, and if you're selling your playoff tickets… they’ve got some words for you.
