Episode Details

The Western Conference Finals started with an instant classic, as Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs beat the Oklahoma City Thunder in double overtime. Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize break down their biggest takeaways from Spurs-Thunder Game 1, Wemby’s huge night, and what the matchup could mean for the rest of the series.

Then, the Eastern Conference Finals begin with Knicks-Cavs Game 1, and the crew drafts the most important players in the series. Is OG Anunoby the key to unlocking New York’s defense? Can Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley or another Cavalier swing the matchup? Which role players could decide who reaches the NBA Finals? Finally, the show turns to the Minnesota Timberwolves’ offseason after their playoff exit. Do Anthony Edwards and Naz Reid need more talent around them? Should Minnesota make major changes or smaller tweaks to keep pace with teams like the Spurs and Thunder?
