The Knicks & Wizards are streaking with Ryan Mayer

Welcome back to another episode of The Drive & Dish NBA podcast, hosted by Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir) & Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose). Justin is still off on his honeymoon this week, so Kevin is joined by CBS Sports producer & Fox News Headlines Sports anchor Ryan Mayer (@r_mayer). The guys start the show by breaking down the surging New York Knicks, who have gotten all the way up to the #4 seed. How did we get here, and can the Knicks actually win a first round series? Plus, why this sets the franchise up for the future if they keep the momentum going. Kevin & Ryan then dive into the Washington Wizards and their sudden emergence in the play-in game picture. How they’ve gotten here despite a ton of injuries, and whether or not Scott Brooks has taken himself off the hot seat. The duo then takes an in depth look at the race for the #1 seed in the Eastern conference. Does Brooklyn’s lack of chemistry even remotely matter? Do the Sixers need #1 more than the Nets? Have we collectively underrated the Bucks’ chances of doing damage? Find out all that and more on this episode.
