01:18–02:45 – They pivot into the NBA Finals, specifically Game 6, which the Pacers won decisively over the Thunder. Greg is surprised by how dominant Indiana was.
02:45–03:58 – Discussion on Oklahoma City’s struggles, particularly how they didn’t appear urgent, whereas Indiana played with desperation.
03:58–06:43 – Chris critiques Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA), suggesting he’s miscast as a point guard. They discuss his turnover-heavy performance and limited passing impact.
06:43–07:11 – Chris shares a moment about TJ McConnell’s dad on TV and mentions the Pacers’ diverse contributors.
07:11–08:26 – Chris lists sportsbook odds for Game 7 (Thunder -285, Pacers +235), and Greg favors the Thunder due to home-court advantage. Chris argues a Thunder loss would be more interesting.
08:26–10:19 – Both debate the Thunder’s lack of a consistent second shot-maker and discuss Durant as a hypothetical fit.
10:19–11:31 – Indiana’s roster construction is praised for its deviation from the “super team” model. Siakam’s acquisition is seen as impactful but not superstar-defining.
11:31–13:07 – KD trade rumors: Phoenix allegedly turned down a deal with Minnesota. KD is reportedly forcing his way to a Texas team. San Antonio emerges as a logical fit.
13:07–14:08 – Orlando’s shocking jump in odds following the Desmond Bane trade is debated. The move distorted trade value market-wide.
14:08–15:34 – Houston is noted as a young team missing a centerpiece. Durant could hypothetically be that guy.
15:34–22:41 – Discussion turns to draft chaos: Ace Bailey refuses to work out unless guaranteed the No. 3 pick. Speculation arises that bad advice from his inexperienced agent is hurting his stock. Chris and Greg break down sportsbook odds (Flagg -100,000 for No. 1, Harper No. 2, Edgecombe No. 3) and worry Bailey will slide to Washington, limiting his development.
22:41–24:23 – They analyze potential Sixers moves and lament the franchise’s awkward spot. Chris dislikes taking another guard like Edgecombe and floats possible trade-down scenarios.
24:23–25:33 – Talk shifts to Charlotte.
25:33–27:37 – The Caitlin Clark saga is unpacked. Greg believes the attention and physical play she’s facing is part jealousy, part intensity of her stardom. Chris ranks Clark as the WNBA’s No. 2 behind A’ja Wilson, with Collier also in tier two.
27:37–29:12 – The duo agrees Collier is an elite but underappreciated talent due to Minnesota’s market. They highlight how attention is mostly on Clark and Wilson, leaving others like Stewart and Ogwumike in the shadows.
29:12–32:36 – College prospects like Juju Watkins and Hannah Hidalgo would be top picks but aren’t draft-eligible yet due to age limits. Greg and Chris criticize the outdated eligibility rules.
32:36–36:13 – They assess current WNBA title contenders. Greg favors the Liberty for their talent depth. Chris points out the upcoming CBA means nearly the entire league will hit free agency, making next season’s landscape unpredictable.
36:13–37:16 – The fall of the Las Vegas Aces is discussed. Trading Kelsey Plum is considered a mistake. Chris wonders when Cam Brink will return.
37:16–39:01 – Expansion talk: Chris wants a WNBA team in Philly. They discuss the need for competitive expansion and praise how the NHL has managed team transitions like the Golden Knights and Utah’s rebrand from Arizona.
39:01–40:52 – Greg explains the Coyotes’ move to Utah. Chris is surprised and amused by Greg’s growing neighborly interactions. They wrap up with lighthearted banter.
