CP The Fanchise sits down with The Athletic’s Timberwolves insider Jon Krawczynski to unpack everything Knicks Nation needs to know about Micah Nori—the Minnesota Timberwolves’ lead assistant who just interviewed for New York’s head-coaching vacancy. From Nori’s tactical chops and “Ted Lasso” personality to his playoff-proven poise and deep connection with Karl-Anthony Towns, we dig into why he’s suddenly a frontrunner in Leon Rose’s search. Plus: CP reacts to Stephen A. Smith’s latest rant, breaks down roster implications, and announces our latest KFTV trivia winner.
