About this episode
Shai Gilgeous Alexander's NBA Playoff Masterpiece DAZZLES The Gil's Arena Crew as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to Shai & Jalen Williams both dropping playoff highs to lift the OKC Thunder to a 3-1 lead in the Western Conference Finals over the Minnesota Timberwolves and break down how the Thunder pulled off an improbable win by slowing down Anthony Edwards & Julius Randle. Next, they invite legendary New York Knicks fan The Kid Mero into the Arena to preview Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Knicks & Pacers and break down the series from the perspective of a Knicks super fan. They discuss what Jalen Brunson means to this franchise as he pushes them towards the NBA Finals and gives on honest take on how high Tyrese Haliburton is rising in the hierarchy of most hated opponents in Knicks history. Finally, they react to Adam Silver continuing to tease the idea of a USA vs the World All Star Game as Giannis Antetokoumpo has joined Gil's Arena in advocating for the change to the NBA's midseason classic, sparking a debate on if the NBA's new TV deal is putting pressure on the league to increase viewership.
