Back to EpisodesSpurs-Thunder instant classic, ECF thoughts + WNBA check-ins
Description
We have a jam-packed episode of The Dunker Spot coming your way!
First, Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones gear up for the Conference Final!
They discuss the all-time classic we witnessed in Game 1 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and San Antonio Spurs, with Victor Wembanyama breaking our brains en route to a victory. From the loud performances, quieter adjustments, and biggest questions heading into Game 2 and beyond, the guys cover it all.
From there, the guys put a bow on the Eastern Conference semifinals. They salute the season of the Detroit Pistons, praise the Cleveland Cavaliers for their dominant Game 7 victory, then spend a little more time previewing their upcoming matchup against the New York Knicks.
Finally, the guys shift to the WNBA to bounce around! They discuss the 4-1 Las Vegas Aces and some of the structural differences (allocation of touches, pace of play) they've displayed so far. They also circle back to the Dallas Wings following a bounce-back win over the Washington Mystics, examine the interesting start (and rotation patterns) of the Mystics, and salute some early rookie standouts.
