Sal Licata and Jerome Williams open the show honoring Kobe Bryant, exactly one year after his tragic passing.

Starks talks about the current Knicks, Quickley, "The Dunk," watching "The Last Dance," playing against Kobe Bryant, guarding him and Michael Jordan, if Hakeem Olajuwon didn't block the shot in Game 6, if Patrick Ewing didn't have him injured in that practice in 1990, memories from the '90s Knicks and all the things he is working on now. NY Post Knicks beat writer Marc Berman drops by to talk about Harthorne Wingo's passing, if Quickley should start, what Toppin needs to improve upon and the tributes to Kobe from players after he passed.
