Why Pacers Have a Pathway to Game 7 DESPITE Haliburton Injury | Knicks Say NO to Durant Deal | Pacers Make a TRADE

Tyrese Haliburton’s calf injury looms large over Game 6 of the NBA Finals, but is there still a path for the Indiana Pacers to force a Game 7? Doug Branson is joined by Matt Moore and Haize to break down what Haliburton’s limitations mean for Indiana’s chances and whether an emotional “Do it for Haliburton” game could keep their title dreams alive. In other league-shifting news, the New York Knicks reportedly pulled out of the Kevin Durant sweepstakes. Why are more teams backing off KD—and are we overrating the impact he could even make at this point in his career? The panel debates whether Karl-Anthony Towns would’ve been a better fit in Phoenix, and what moves could actually reshape the title race more than a KD deal. Plus, the Pacers quietly make a significant trade in the middle of the Finals. What does it signal about their long-term strategy—and are they gearing up to throw four picks at a superstar next season? And finally, Memphis is under fire. Between Desmond Bane’s comments about the Grizzlies’ facility and Stephen A. Smith calling the city “unsafe,” has the franchise lost control of the narrative? Matt and Haize deliver strong reactions and call out unfair portrayals of Memphis and cities like it.
