On the Daily Play, Joy Taylor reacts to the Knicks sweeping the Cavaliers 4-0 to win the Eastern Conference finals and reach the NBA Finals for the first time in nearly 30 years, highlighting a balanced Game 4 win (130-93), Jalen Brunson’s Larry Bird ECF MVP, and key contributions from Josh Hart, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby, Landry Shamet, and Karl-Anthony Towns, who reflects on making his first Finals with the team he grew up cheering for. Taylor praises New York’s physical, defensive, team-oriented style and their 11-game playoff win streak, calling the run great for the NBA and its biggest brands. She then discusses the Spurs tying their series with OKC after a Popovich message, noting De’Aaron Fox’s debut, Dylan Harper’s return, strong defense on Shai, and standout play from Stephon Castle and Wemby. Finally, she reviews the All-NBA teams and the 65-game rule exclusions for LeBron, Steph, and Giannis. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
