Kevin O’Connor and Tom Haberstroh discuss SGA and the Oklahoma City Thunder’s dominant performance against Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. With the Thunder leading the series 2-0, there is little hope for the Timberwolves to recover from their 0-2 deficit. The discussion highlights SGA’s superior performance compared to Edwards, suggesting that SGA is on a different level.
Next, attention turns to Knicks fans, with Kevin O’Connor offering a therapy session for those devastated by the Indiana Pacers’ latest comeback victory. Jonathan Macri, a diehard New York Knicks fan, joins to share his thoughts on how Tyrese Haliburton and Aaron Nesmith contributed to the Knicks’ heartbreak.
Additionally, projected 2025 NBA Draft first-rounder Asa Newell joins from the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago. Newell discusses his game as a floor-spacing, switchable big man, providing insights into his potential impact in the NBA.
