1:23 ... The crew discusses their respective Father's Day celebrations

2:33 ... Pacers/Thunder game 5 discussion ...

3:10 ... Bruce felt the seeds of OKC's game 5 victory were planted on Friday night when they came back late in the game to defeat the Pacers on the road. And OKC's defense dominated game 5 from the jump.

4:49 ... World B felt that Indiana played a sloppy game on Monday and that was their undoing as the turnovers were a huge difference in the game.

6:56 ... Ross cited Tyrese Haliburton's leg injury and the guys discussed whether Indiana can come back if he is not at full strength.

8:52 ... World B feels like TJ McConnell might be able to rise to the occasion in game 6 if Haliburton struggles.

10:21 ... Bruce feels Andrew Nembhard needs to have a big game in game 6 for Indiana.

12:19 ... Bruce asks Ross if game 5 will be known as "The Jalen Williams game?" Ross agrees and also cites Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for a great effort.

14:27 ... Bruce cites Williams for his work on defense and how he is a real disruptor on defense and everyone agrees that he has answered all the questions about whether he is a premier "Number Two" in the league.

15:15 ... Ross tees up everyone for their game 6 predictions ... all three of the guys like Indiana to force a game 7.

17:05 ... The Memphis Grizzlies have traded Desmond Bane to the Orlando Magic and the guys discuss how he fits into the Magic lineup with his great three point shooting and all around game. While Orlando gave up a lot to acquire Bane, the situation in the eastern conference might be very favorable for the Magic with Bane.

22:44 ... Cole Anthony goes from Orlando to Memphis and World B feels he got a raw deal with the Magic. Bruce feels Anthony's chippy style will play well in Memphis. Kentavious Caldwell Pope hopes to rejuvenate his career with the Grizzlies.

25:52 ... Memphis gets four unprotected first round draft picks plus a pick swap, so Ross feels Memphis will do fine with this deal. The guys then discuss whether the Grizz might be looking to deal more players, but Jaren Jackson Junior, Ja Morant, and Jaylen Wells all seem to be franchise cornerstones.

30:36 ... Kevin Durant has told the Suns which three teams he'd like to be traded to: Miami, Houston, or San Antonio. Bruce would love to see KD end up in San Antonio with Victor Wembanyama. World B doesn't feel like KD is chasing a ring since he seems uninterested in going to Minnesota. Bruce cited Marc Stein's report that Miami might offer players other than Bam Adebayo or Tyler Herro and doesn't feel like Phoenix would consider Andrew Wiggins or Duncan Robinson. Ross feels like if Phoenix wants to rebuild, Devin Booker would bring a King's ransom in return.

38:41 ... The Knicks are having problems finding their next coach because they keep trying to hire coaches that are currently employed by other teams and have looked clueless in their pursuit. World B calls it an embarrassment. Bruce compares Knicks management to the Keystone Cops. Bruce thinks NY should hire Mark Jackson, who played for the Knicks and coached the Warriors as they were about to become a dynasty under Steve Kerr.

45:30... Ross wraps it up and says good bye and see you next week.
