About the episode
Verno and Jacoby react to the Spurs holding off the Knicks in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Victor Wembanyama bounced back to help give the Spurs their first win of the series after missing a game-winning shot at the end of Game 2. The guys discuss what went wrong for the Knicks, how the referees influenced the game, Wemby’s push on Jalen Brunson, and the big and small picture for the Knicks for the rest of the series. Also, they debate whether the Knicks were relying on Brunson too much, Jacoby’s dislike for Wemby, and whether Game 4 will determine the eventual winner of the series.
