I hate the Heat. In this episode, I break down the Knicks' first loss of the 2026 season. We get into why their offensive approach was actually the right one — it just came down to poor execution. We also touch on the Knick defense, Miami’s physical defensive showing, and a few other takeaways from a tough night in South Beach.
