OKC Takes Game 5 Over Pacers, Durant Wants To Join Spurs, Ja Morant’s Future? Desmond Bane Perfect For Magic

Colin’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down game 5 of the NBA Finals plus some of the top stories from around the league!

They begin with the Thunder taking a 3-2 lead over the Pacers, powered by SGA and Jalen Williams 71 combined points and tip their cap to Williams for the years of work he’s put in to reach his high level of play (3:30). They also highlight Chet Holmgren and the OKC defense as one of the biggest factors in the win (9:00) and discuss why they feel the eastern conference will be wide open going forward (14:15).

They react to the massive haul paid by the Magic in the Desmond Bane trade but also point out why he’s the perfect piece for Orlando to add (25:30). They discuss the tumult surrounding the Grizzlies, what to make of Ja Morant’s future as his trajectory is pointing down (29:00), and why Morant is a cautionary tale (34:00). 

Finally, they react to the reports that Kevin Durant prefers the Spurs as a trade destination, debate whether it’d be the best fit out of his potential suitors (44:00) and comment on the positive trends in the league (53:00).
