Thunder Win The NBA Title! OKC’s Defense Top 5 All-Time, Kevin Durant Traded To Rockets, SHORTEN The Postseason

Colin is joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight”, to break down the OKC Thunder’s win over the Pacers in Game 7 of the NBA Finals! They start with their biggest takeaways from the series and point to OKC’s GM, roster construction, elite defense and #1 star in SGA… bottom line… the best team won (4:00). They discuss why the loss of Tyrese Halliburton was too much to overcome for the Pacers (7:45), and why the OKC defense is top 5 all-time (10:15). They break down SGA’s game and explain why he is one of the best midrange scorers the league has ever seen (12:00), and discuss why OKC actually underachieved for the majority of the postseason and should only get better (25:00). They discuss the rash of season ending injuries to star players and Colin argues against seven game playoff series, and why the injury to Halliburton was such a buzzkill (32:00). They react to Kevin Durant being traded to the Houston Rockets, explain why Houston won the trade, and make their predictions for how each team will benefit (47:00). Finally, they break down where it all went wrong for the Suns and left their roster noncompetitive (1:01:00). (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)
