The Mismatch
Can the Knicks Force a Game 7? Plus, the Thunder Are Finals Bound and the Missing Playoff Intensity.
About the episode
Verno and Jacoby react to the Knicks shutting down Tyrese Haliburton and the Pacers to survive for at least one more game. Jacoby discusses his experience from inside MSG, the Knicks’ stingy defense, and the hot-and-cold playoff performances from Tyrese Haliburton. Have the Knicks figured out how to contain the Pacers? Next, the guys congratulate the Thunder for beating the Wolves in five games to reach the NBA Finals. They discuss the Thunder’s dominance for most of the series, SGA’s consistency, and what has been missing from both conference finals.
