INTERVIEW | Who Makes The Final Cut? w/ Fred Katz of The Athletic
In this episode, Jon is joined by Fred Katz of The Athletic to discuss the eventful last 7 days the Knicks have had since their last recording, which include trading for Mikal Bridges, losing Isaiah Hartenstein in free agency, several backup center options leaving signing elsewhere (including 2 options going off the board live) and much more (like Jon going to the Clippers).

Fred is such a gem. Never change.
Love Deuce but for Kessler yes I do it
Hey Fred,looking refreshed after the long season. Always look forward to the episode when I see you. Don’t get me wrong I watch most KFS content but I especially enjoy the chemistry you have with Jmac and Andrew. Reminds me of the Knicks chemistry. Let’s Go Knicks!
Best GMAC and Katz yet!!!
Yo Katz it s fucking comedy bro !! 😂😂😂
Fred Katz is one of my favorite beat writers. One day I'll scrounge up the money for his pod
Glad I stayed to the end to learn about the up and coming “Your Tubes Are Tied” channel. Looking forward to it, Matthew
Fred is a welcome Matt
Fred with the scissors had me rolling.

Oh what I miss by usually just listening.
Great conversation. Nice job. The CBA rules are insanely punitive.
Jon you give me hope! I'm having my 1st daughter in Aug, my 3rd child total and I promised my wife I'd get the snip after she delivers. 😅 I'm nervous lol.
Snip Film School is hilarious!!!!! Lmaooooooo great content fellas
Absolute insane ending lmaoooooo 💀
Keep an eye on Hukporti. I don't think he's as raw or behind as people assume. He has a legit chance to take Sims' spot at very least.
What did this team do when the drafted IQ? Grimes? Both 24/25 picks. Both played their rookie years.

That was in the beginning of their rebuilding they had to start there chest moves
Kessler for rights to Rokas, Sims, Washington protected 1st, 2-3 second rounders, Salary filler.

Who's the salary filler? The only one left is McBride. I dont want to trade him. Thats the issue we're having. Hopefully we can sign and trade Burks.

Kessler has a really good contract. Like 2.7 million. Sims probably has similar. May not need salary filler. Ainge would probably want more. Detroit's protected first too.
I dont think the knicks backup center for the playoffs will be on the opening day roster. I think that person may end up coming later at the trade deadline.

You make a GREAT point. The Knicks made two in-season trades this past season that were transformative. This is a clear area of weakness that the NYK need to shore up. Everyone can see it. Ainge will ask for the sun, moon, and stars for Kessler----he HATES the Knicks. Playing the waiting game might be the most prudent thing to do at this point. Can't shop hungry, especially when the seller knows this and doesn't like you. Things are more fluid during the season. The Pistons made a trade back in the day in January of '88 that eventually catapulted them into the Finals past the Celtics when they traded for backup Center James "Budha" Edwards. The Knicks need to continuously gauge the market and strike when they can take advantage of another team's wants/needs/internal strife/injuries/surplus of players at a certain position/poor salary cap situation, etc. Patience is on order now.
Big Fred in da house !!
snips film school LOL fred rules
If they don’t make a trade in the off season, will they have the flexibility to make a mid season trade? They need a reliable center at some point in the future. I think any deal they make now will be from a position of weakness. Never a good thing.
As it stands now, they are one big Mitchell Robinson injury away from having a big hole at center. And as sure as the Sun rises in the morning Mitchell Robinson is going to get hurt next season. It looks right now, Precious, Sims and Julius as the backup, with OG at specific situations.
guys if the snipperbocker film school did not want to talk about plane tracking, you could have talked about Fred's favorite team in Michigan, didn't have to go there but then again probably wouldn't have been as popular
katz is a menace ✂️✂️✂️✂️
5:28 .... "they came here for news!!! NOT THIS NEWS!" *audience remains locked in cause knicks need precious lol
KZreads are tied 😂
Just get Kessler!
Who gives a fuck if he got a vasectomy this is why I listen to CP
Why they barely talked about Mitch when most of this hour was talking about center?
Diedot, Sims, cash and some 2nds for Walker Kessler happening?

They've gotta wait until 30 days after the draft if they wanna trade one of their draft picks. Dadie, Deuce, and Rokas are superfluous assets now that can be used in a deal (along w/lots of 2nd round picks, perhaps cash, & salary filler in the form of Jericho Sims).
Katz its Hilarious
Hartenstein leaving seems to have caught Knicks fans and ESPN clowns off guard which is dumb when we know other teams could pay him more
Ariel hukporti
Feels like Deuce is gonna have to be inevitably moved for a center. The Knicks didn't want this to be the case and neither did we since Deuce is an excellent asset but Hartenstein leaving and the team not having a starting caliber center on the roster outside of what is hopefully a healthy and in-shape Mitch has forced their hands here.
You have to be good to beat the crap out of a team.
Good thing Orlando didn't trade for Murray...
Great show. Cut the crap:)
snip snip snip snip snip snip
✂️ To hear TRADE JULIUS RANDLE in a High pitched voice ✂️🙄
Feel like this was. HIPAA violation, Fred.
Jon must be a fan of the Florida State Seminole vesicles!
Tristan vukcevic
Again - DARIO SAKIC - only 30 years old, cheap and great fundamentals to counter the "Hack a Mitch" issue late in games. Sakic shots at an elite level and the best thing he is a PASSER. Playing in this offense shooting 3's you need a SAKIC that can hit the open shooter. SAKIC beat Luka's team in Olympic Trials yesterday posting a triple double. and the best thing he is CHEAP! He can play!!!
Losing IHart is a major buzzkill. And for nothing
“Someone say 2 prongs?” “YOU CLEARLY HAVE VASECTOMY ON THE BRAIN”
Deuce to nets and Robinson + 2nd round picks for Walker Kessler
Listen enough with these Small ball 6’8 centers just shut up and get Nick Richards trade Deuce if u have too even though I believe we probably wouldn’t need too
First
Ariel hotouri is the guy
OG's (Mr. Glass) contract is going to end up being an ALBATROSS!
Duce for Kessler yes
i would love to see the stats on the viewer drop off when Andrew shows up. He is a legend behind the scenes but ...
