The Oklahoma City Thunder took Game 2 in convincing fashion, but Matt Moore isn’t ready to hand them the series just yet. He and Haize debate whether the Thunder’s adjustments — and their youth — are being overrated after just one bounce-back performance. Meanwhile, the Pacers’ issues run deeper than cold shooting. Is Pascal Siakam bringing enough intensity? Can Tyrese Haliburton create under playoff pressure? And are Indiana’s balanced scoring and bench units finally backfiring?
In New York, the Knicks are rumored to be eyeing Mavericks coach Jason Kidd. Is that a legitimate plan, or just leverage theater? Haize and Matt both weigh in on how real the Knicks’ coaching search is — and whether it has anything to do with Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Later, the Cleveland Cavaliers are reportedly open to moving Darius Garland, prompting a tough question: is it too soon to break up their core? Matt and Haize clash over whether the Cavs should be patient or proactive — especially now that Garland is out for 4–5 months after toe surgery. Could the Orlando Magic swoop in for the perfect backcourt addition?
