Colin is joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight”.

They start with the city of Chicago losing the Bears to Hammond, Indiana as well as losing its bid to host World Cup games and the trend of states/cities competing with each other to host professional sports teams (3:30). 

They move to the NBA Finals and whether Wemby’s thin frame has become a disadvantage when playing against the thicker, stronger Karl-Anthony Towns (6:00), why the expectations that Wemby be a finished product at 22 years old are unrealistic, and why Towns has grown and learned from past mistakes that cost his teams (10:15). 

They argue that the Spurs have been making dumb mistakes you’d expect a young team to make, while the Knicks have been situationally excellent (17:30). They also discuss the confluence of events that have to come together in order for a non-star driven team like the Knicks to win the NBA title (25:30). They highlight that the Knicks have a special locker room chemistry that has led them to play for one another and exceed expectations (31:45).

Jason breaks down why the Knicks have been able to break down the Spurs defense with ease, and why the Knicks are just a terrible matchup for the Spurs (37:00).

Finally, they look back at the life and career of Bulls legend and broadcaster Stacey King who passed away at 59 (43:30).

Colin’s top takes of the week.

First, Colin is joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” to break down the NBA playoffs.

They begin with Colin explaining why he became a “fan” during Game 7 and why he was pulling for the Spurs dynasty to begin, and Jason highlights some of the adjustments the Spurs made to beat the defending champs (3:00). Colin marvels at the poise and composure an incredibly young Spurs team showed in a high pressure game 7 on the road, and they make the case for Wemby being the best player in the world (8:45).

Colin argues that Thunder GM Sam Presti may have to look into trading for Giannis in order to compete with the Spurs going forward, but Jason argues that Presti should look to target someone in the draft (14:15).

Then, Colin is joined by legendary sportswriter Ian O’Connor to talk about all things Knicks.

They start with Colin’s theory that the Knicks began their resurgence after owner James Dolan stepped away to build the Sphere and became more distracted and hands-off from running the team and letting GM Leon Rose build the roster (24:30). They discuss the reasons behind Mike Brown’s success as head coach and why he’s been able to succeed when past coaches have failed, and the change he made to the role of Karl-Anthony Towns (29:45).

They examine the Knicks supporting case and why their high effort, tough nosed style of basketball feels a bit like Villanova…but yet, it works (34:15 ). Finally, they discuss Jalen Brunson’s incredibly rare team friendly contract with the Knicks, and why he knew that ending the Knicks title drought would be worth far more than a few million dollars on his contract (38:30).
