00:02 - I wanna get your thoughts on this.

00:06 So the Knicks filed a lawsuit against a former employee

00:11 that allegedly took thousands of files with him

00:14 to his new job with the Toronto Raptors.

00:17 Play frequency reports, a prep book from last season,

00:21 video scouting, your boy took his entire Knick career

00:25 with him up there to that new coach in Toronto.

00:28 What's this all about, coach?

00:29 What do we got here?

00:31 - Well, listen, you know, usually what happens is,

00:34 is when you go to a new team,

00:35 sometimes they can ask you or a new school,

00:38 how did you do things?

00:39 What did you do?

00:40 What did you run?

00:41 And you can visually show them,

00:45 but you're not supposed to like take stuff with you.

00:48 This guy took everything, everything.

00:51 And it's property of the Knicks,

00:53 including something that we call synergy.

00:55 You hear me talking about synergy on here?

00:56 This is basically like what every team in the NBA

01:00 and NCAA women's and men's division one basketball use.

01:04 It's an editing software

01:05 where you can get every game of team plays.

01:08 It's already clipped by team stuff,

01:11 play shots, offense, defense.

01:13 So you can clip and that's how you do video scouting.

01:17 So this guy basically took everything that the Knicks had

01:21 with him to Toronto.

01:22 When you sign to be part of an organization,

01:25 you probably disclose that you're not gonna

01:27 take stuff with you.

01:28 This guy did, Ronny Kovacs has it.

01:31 And now he's got the Knicks quote unquote playbook,

01:34 at least scouting wise, what they do.

01:36 It's kind of a big deal,

01:38 but I don't know how much,

01:39 I don't know if there's gonna be any type of tampering

01:43 or loss of draft picks.

01:44 I don't think it will go to that level.

01:47 - You're right.

01:48 Like when you think about it that way,

01:51 it is kind of a big deal.

01:52 Like that's, let's be honest.

01:55 It's cheating.
