Episode Description from the Publisher

The New York Knicks EPIC Game 1 Comeback FIRES UP Gil's Arena as the Gil's Arena Crew reacts to the Knicks overcoming a 22 point deficit in the 4th Quarter to stun the Cleveland Cavaliers in a Game 1 thriller and break down how Jalen Brunson & the Knicks stole the opening game of the Eastern Conference Finals with their gutsy performance. They analyze what the Cavs can do to slow down Brunson as the series moves along and call out James Harden for sinking his team with his 6th game in these NBA Playoffs where the beard had more turnovers than FGs made. Next, they react to the stunning news from the Dallas Mavericks as the team decided to move on from head coach Jason Kidd and break down what this means for Cooper Flagg and the rest of the Mavs roster as the team looks to move in a new direction under new leadership. Then they give their takes on the viral clip of Anthony Edwards shaking hands with the San Antonio Spurs with 8 minutes left in their Game 6 blowout and debate if the Timberwolves superstar was overstepping with this immature action before getting into a heated debate on who is the best player in the World right now after Victor Wembanyama outplayed Shai Gilgeous Alexander, despite the OKC Thunder Superstar taking home his 2nd NBA MVP Award.
