They beat up the Sixers last night and are on an amazing run of games.

WFAN and Yankees radio icon John Sterling passed away Monday at the age of 87, leading to a day full of tributes across all of our shows.

Plus, Aaron Boone joined The Carton Show to pay tribute.

We open with Boomer’s bike tour and a heavy look at the Knicks/Sixers series, covering everything from spread guesses and Joel Embiid’s desperate plea for Philly fans to hold their tickets.
