EMERGENCY POD - Draft Lottery Reactions

No, it's not the end of the world. Kyle & Mike are mostly annoyed about moving backwards, not that the Knicks didn't "win" the lottery. Plenty of options to be had whether they select a player (Kira Lewis, Devin Vassell, Killian are a few names discussed) or look to move up or down in the draft. All in all, if the new regime/front office are what they say they are, it shouldn't be an issue.
