Tom Thibodeau was relieved of his duties as the head coach of the New York Knicks after the team made a conference finals run for the first time in 25 years. Logan Murdock and Howard Beck react to the news and try to figure out what ultimately led to Thibs's firing after having a fairly successful run and bringing the Knicks out of mediocrity? Can a new coach improve the team, or do they still have to make changes to the roster in order to compete?

Then, throw out your big-market biases: There are two very exciting teams in the NBA Finals! Logan and Howard preview the matchup and discuss whether the way the Thunder and Pacers' rosters are constructed is how team-building should be.

Plus, 'Inside the NBA' has officially ended at Turner and will move to ESPN. Logan and Howard are joined by Bryan Curtis and Joel Anderson of The Press Box to discuss the transition and what the show will look like. The guys also discuss their favorite moments from the show.
