For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

And Kawhi Is the King in the North!” 6/16/2019 Special guest “Mr. Nets” returns to debate the blockbuster trade, in which Anthony Davis was finally traded to the Lakers for Lonzo Ball, Brandon Ingram, Josh Hart, and three first round picks (including this year’s No. 4 overall pick, in 2019)! The Toronto Raptors are your new NBA 2019 champions! Kawhi Leonard is a NBA Finals MVP, once again! Therefore, he truly has become the “King in the North!” In this episode of Knicksfandom, the guys give an exclusive 2019 NBA Finals wrap-up! They discuss if Kevin Durant should have played in a “do or die” Game 5, which ultimately resulted in him suffering a season ending injury, in which he ruptured his Achilles tendon. Shockingly, Klay Thompson would go down in Game 6 with a season ending injury, in the form of a torn ACL. “Mr. Nets” gives his thoughts about Kyrie Irving possibly signing with his Brooklyn Nets and his thoughts regarding the two possible max players salary cap room, that the Nets recently opened up by trading Allen Crabbe.

Kristaps Porzingis aka “KP,” was recently traded from the New York Knicks in a blockbuster trade! KP, Tim Hardaway Jr., Courtney Lee, and Trey Burke for Dennis Smith Jr., DeAndre Jordan, Wesley Matthews, and two future first round draft picks (reportedly Dallas’ 2021 Dallas- 1st Round Pick “unprotected” and reportedly Dallas’ 2023 1st Round “protected” Pick (1-10)! What do we truly think about this trade? What do the guys think about KP’s “legacy” as a Knick! Who should the Knicks pursue with their massive cap space ($74.56 million) in the summer of 2019? What does this deal mean for the Knicks immediate future? Anthony Davis Potential Trade! Anthony Davis’ agent Rich Paul publicly demanded a trade for AD from the New Orleans Pelicans! Anthony Davis aka “AD,” was subsequently fined $50K for his public trade demand, by the NBA! What do we think about AD sending Rich Paul to deliver the news Pelicans? Which team do we think AD will eventually up being traded to… (i.e. Lakers, Celtics, Nets, 76ers, Warriors, Nuggets, etc.)? What does it mean for LeBron and the Lakers if AD ends up with the Lakers? And is Kyrie far behind? If you were AD which team would you truly want to be traded to, in the near future? Moreover, what does it say about the weakness of the “super-max contract,” within the NBA’s present collective bargaining agreement and what must be done to improve it as a whole? What can actually be done to improve “small market team’s” chances to keep their superstar players in the future? {Kristaps Porzingis} By Ed (AIMG_1464) [CC BY-SA 2.0 (httpcreativecommons.orglicensesby-sa2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons {Anthony Davis} Anthony_Davis_dunk.JPG Find our Podcast Here: www.spreaker.com/show/knicksfandom iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/knicksfandom/id1173138462?mt=2 Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=124330&refid=stpr Facebook: www.facebook.com/Knicksfandom Spotify, YouTube, Google Play & Pocket Casts!…

Marrkhanen led the Bulls to a much-needed win with 24 points and the game winning basket over the Thunder in a 114-112 win, which also the new Bulls Head Coach Jim Boylen’s home debut! Unfortunately, they followed that win with an epic loss to the Celtics 133-77! - A three-team NBA trade recently took place. The Milwaukee Bucks acquired point guard George Hill from Cleveland, and forward Jason Smith and a 2021 second-round pick from Washington. - The Cavs received Matthew Dellavedova and center John Henson, along with 2021 first-and second-round draft picks from Milwaukee. - The Wizards acquired Sam Dekker from Cleveland via Milwaukee and swapped second round draft picks with Cleveland, with the Cavs sending the Wizards’ 2021 first round lottery protected pick and may not convey until 2024, back to Washington for the Wizards’ 2022 selection. - This deal could also potentially save the Bucks about $19 million dollars next season if they choose not to keep Hill (only $1 million guaranteed). FAST BREAK- - Masai Ujiri, Toronto Raptors President of Operations in a recent two-day celebration of his Giants of Africa basketball program, Masai Ujiri stated and I quote, “I’m confident to say there are 10 Embiids walking around, there are 10 whosevers walking around in Africa.” Africa’s current population is presently estimated between 1.2 billion and 1.3 billion, with the median age being 19.4 years according to worldmeters.info. Is Ujiri being somewhat disrespectful or is he just being truthful? OPEN COURT- - Danny D, asks the guys about their opinions about Giannis Antetokunmpo avoiding workouts with other NBA stars: I don't 'buddy-buddy' with my opponents.

HOT TOPIC- - Gregg Popovich recently lamented the currently aesthetics in the NBA. “There’s no basketball anymore, there’s no beauty in it,” he said. “These days there’s such an emphasis on the three because it’s proven to be analytically correct.” - Also, Shaq recently gave the “Superman” moniker to Giannis Antetokounmpo because he plays through the post and even went on to say, “He does what a lot of big guys need to do, take their big as*, down in the paint.” - Therefore, the guys discuss should NBA teams continue to chase the 3-point shot as whole, or should certain teams like the current Philadelphia 76ers (Embid recently complained about having to play near the 3-point line, since they acquired Jimmy Butler, in order to make more spacing.) go back to playing through the post like a lot of teams did in the 1990’s teams such as the Houston Rockets with Hakeem Olajuwon, the Indiana Pacers with Rick Smits, and even our own New York Knicks with Patrick Ewing), or is it too late and this “style of play” has already been permanently phased out of the NBA? {New York Skyline.jpg) C.
