The Knicks Hype is Real... But the Spurs Will Be 2026 NBA Champions

On this week's episode, I.T. and C.J. catch up on the past week of playoff hoops: the Knicks continued their historic march to the Finals with a clean sweep of the Cleveland Cavaliers on the backs of an incredibly balanced and poised roster. The Cavs got their hearts ripped out in Game 1 and just never really seemed to recover. And in the West, the Spurs v. OKC series has been just as incredible as anticipated. Role players like Jared McCain and Isaiah Hartenstein are stepping up big in close games, alongside monster performances from Wemby and SGA, and the coaching adjustments on both sides have been immaculate. What do the Cavs do next? Is this Knicks team for real? Who's going to come out on top in the West? We dig into all of these burning questions, plus we crack open I.T.'s closet door for another edition of Shoe and Tell, and we give flowers to Deuce McBride and Landry Shamet for holding down the New York bench throughout this Knicks run.  Have a question for I.T.?
