Tom Haberstroh on Victor Wembanyama becoming the Villain + Knicks biggest issue | 06.10

On this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones is joined by Tom Haberstroh to break down why Victor Wembanyama has completely changed this series and why the New York Knicks suddenly look like they’re running out of answers. They dig into Wemby’s dominance on both ends, how San Antonio keeps getting him downhill and at the rim, and why Tom thinks the Spurs should actually feel like they could be up 3-0 right now. Bomani and Tom also get into what’s going wrong for the Knicks late in games, including Jalen Brunson’s extreme ball dominance, the lack of flow in New York’s offense, and Karl-Anthony Towns disappearing in crunch time after such a strong start to the series. From there, they discuss whether the Knicks can make the adjustments needed in Game 4, whether Wemby has already become the biggest force in the series, and why his physical edge and swagger are turning him into one of the most polarizing stars in the league. They also hit the controversial officiating around Wemby’s contact with Brunson, the NBA’s response to that play, what this matchup says about who’s built for the moment, and even where Jalen Brunson belongs in the all-time Knicks conversation.
