    Game 3 Keys in Indy and a New Kidd in New York? Plus, Tyrese Haliburton: The Low-Usage Superstar.

    Verno and Jacoby discuss the expected Game 2 Thunder victory and how Game 2 was the best of the best of the Thunder and the worst of the worst of the Pacers. They discuss how the media is viewing Tyrese Haliburton and why the narrative around him might be misconstrued. They then dive into their expectations for Games 3 and 4 in Indianapolis, as well as the series going forward. Next, the guys examine what the injuries to Zach Edey and Darius Garland could mean for the Grizzlies and Cavs, respectively; what Atlanta’s front office changes signal; and whether Jason Kidd might end up coaching the Knicks.

    The Case for a Pacers Surprise, OKC’s Path to the Finals, and What’s Next for the Knicks

    The Pacers beat the Knicks over the weekend to reach the Finals, where they will meet the Oklahoma City Thunder! Before discussing the Finals, Verno questions Jacoby regarding the next steps for the Knicks after a disappointing ending to their season. Is it time for Thibs to go? Does this core stay intact for another year? Next, the guys make the case for a Pacers upset and discuss what it'll take to pull that off, as well as their hope for a competitive series. Lastly, the guys discuss Devin Booker's involvement in the Suns' head coaching search and the weird send-off ‘Inside the NBA’ has gotten despite the fact that the show will return next season on ESPN.
