One Thing That Will Decide the Thunder Pacers Showdown | KAT's future with Knicks In Jeopardy?

The Finals matchup is here, but is it over before it begins? We break down why the Thunder’s ability to generate turnovers might be the single biggest advantage in the series—and whether Tyrese Haliburton can flip the script. Are the Pacers’ 12-deep roster and Rick Carlisle’s coaching wizardry enough to manufacture one more upset?

We also dig into the Eastern Conference Finals MVP debate: Did Pascal Siakam deserve the nod over Haliburton? 

Then we pivot to the Knicks—after bowing out to Indiana, is the Brunson-KAT pairing salvageable, or did the team’s identity issues finally catch up with them? Matt suggests a coaching change may be the only way forward. 

Plus: Zion Williamson is facing serious allegations. What does this mean for his future in New Orleans—and should the Pelicans consider cutting ties altogether? And finally, Devin Booker gets a say in the Suns’ coaching search. Smart move or slippery slope?
