Amazing Thunder, Roaring Knicks, Freakish Wemby, Cavs Give The Ick
from Missing the Point · host Dave Clarke
The playoffs always expose what a team really is, and we get into the version of that truth that Celtics fans do not want to hear. We break down Boston’s exit with an unfiltered coaching conversation, from predictable offence to the difference between “shoot more threes” and having real counters when a series tightens. If you have strong takes on leadership, max contracts, or what “easy to play against” actually looks like, you will have plenty to argue with here.Then we zoom out to what is making this postseason so addictive. The New York Knicks are playing a brand of hard nosed basketball that feels old school without being nostalgic, and we talk through why it travels in the playoffs. On the other side, Thunder Spurs is basketball at a higher speed, with Victor Wembanyama bending the court and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander answering every punch. We dig into Oklahoma City’s biggest weapon: depth, flexibility, and a true one through 15 rotation that lets them adjust without panicking.We also hit the stuff fans yell about every night: refs, replay, foul baiting, and simple NBA rule changes that could clean up the product fast, especially around landing space and quick review decisions. We even take a short detour into Netflix true crime and new movies, because apparently our brains cannot stop analysing narratives anywhere.Subscribe to Missing the Point, share this with a friend who is watching every game, and leave a review with your hottest playoff take.
