I’m excited to talk about my beloved New York Knicks with ! I always enjoy my time on the program and am thankful for the chance to be on.

I can't believe Florida just knocked out the Boston Bruins. Two massive upsets for south Florida between the NBA and NHL. Arguably the biggest upset in NHL history, especially considering the Bruins were up 3-1. Wow.

It's hard to believe No. 5 Knicks vs. No. 8 Heat is a reality but it is. The only bummer from a Knicks perspective about the Heat win tonight is that Randle will have two less days to rest.

No. 8 seed Miami beats top-seeded Milwaukee in five games. Game 1 of Knicks-Heat is on Sunday at Madison Square Garden. Here is the rest of the series: Game 2 on May 2; Game 3 on May 6; Game 4 on May 8; Game 5 on May 10; Game 6 on May 12 and Game 7 on May 15.
Knicks vs. Heat in the second round is so, so awesome. The intensity will be fantastic and I'd imagine the scores will be low. I cannot wait.

Obviously everyone knew this trade was coming, and yet it's still shocking to read this:

Trade compensation, per sources: Jets get: 🏈Aaron Rodgers, pick No. 15, a 2023 5th-rd pick (No. 170). Packers get: 🏈Pick No. 13, a 2023 2nd-rd pick (No. 42), a 6th-rd pick (No. 207), a conditional 2024 2nd-rd pick that becomes a 1st if Rodgers plays 65 percent of the plays.

With 22.5" of rain in 7 hours (3 to 10 pm) at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FL) International Airport (mostly in 6 hours), this is an off-the-charts event going on in South Florida. On the upper bounds of a 1,000 year rainfall event, maybe a once-in-5,000 year event. #FLwx

Nets lose, Cavs win, Sixers win. This clinches the No. 5 seed for the Knicks and the No. 4 seed for Cleveland. Jalen Brunson & NYK will face Donovan Mitchell and Cavs in the first round of the playoffs.

“Spring Fest” was held at Melbourne Beach’s Ryckman Park on Saturday. The event featured kid-run businesses, entertainment and food trucks. One such business was “Flowers on the Moon,” which sold tulips and daffodils:

Crazy to think it’s consecutive Sweet 16s for Miami. Crazy to think it’s far more successful in basketball than has been in football lately. Crazy to think this happens given how things looked 16 months or so ago. And crazy to think 2 teams from South Florida are in the Sweet 16.

HOW SWEET IT IS! (5) Miami takes down (4) Indiana and heads to the Sweet 16 for the second year in a row. (!!!!) 🙌

I'm really glad they got this done and that both Jones and Barkley are returning, even though the dollar amount here appears to be fairly high for Jones.
Quote Tweet
The #Giants and QB Daniel Jones beat the clock on the franchise tag, agreeing to terms on a long-term deal, sources tell me and @RapSheet. Jones’ agents and the team worked hard to get this deal done in time. Jones has six fourth-quarter comebacks in his career. Make it seven.

Incredible that Miami gets the no. 1 seed in the ACC basketball tournament given the talent in the conference. If you would have told me when they entered the ACC that the basketball program would have more success than the football program....

THE HURRICANES HAVE DONE IT. MIAMI WINS A SHARE OF THE ACC TITLE.

I give the Rangers credit for going for it, but the East is so tough this year that I worry about the chances of this working. Still, the Rangers are super talented and will be a fun team to watch for the rest of the season and in the playoffs.

Breaking: It's Showtime. Sources tell @DailyFaceoff: #NYR expected to acquire Patrick Kane for 2023 2nd Rd Pick (can become a 1st) and a 4th Rd Pick. #NYR and #Blackhawks plan to conduct 3-team trade call tonight. Possible Kane makes #NYR debut Wed in Philadelphia vs. #Flyers.

For those interested, I’ll be on at 3:20 talking baseball. I always enjoy my time on the show and really appreciate him having me on.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone at News 13 and with the families and friends of the victims of today’s shootings in Orlando:

Congratulations, Kansas City! As a Giants fan I’m not disappointed in the outcome even though the call on Bradberry looks pretty iffy and is reminiscent of last year’s Super Bowl ending. The 22-23 Eagles rank pretty high on list of best teams to not win a Super Bowl.
