About this episode
Adam Mares and Tim Legler break down the biggest NBA games and storylines from around the league, starting with reactions to the New York Knicks winning the NBA Cup and what it means for their season. The guys dive into Trae Young’s return to the Hawks and how it was spoiled by a surging Hornets team, including a deep look at Charlotte’s young core and their shockingly efficient offense. They discuss Jalen Johnson’s rapid development and why he reminds Tim Legler of Kevin Durant, debate the best long term fit next to Trae Young, and analyze the Mavericks staying hot after outlasting the Pistons alongside another standout performance from Cooper Flagg. The show also covers Detroit’s shooting concerns, the Pelicans stunning the Rockets in overtime, the Nuggets’ dominant second quarter run against the Magic, the Suns edging the Warriors in a thriller, and a wildly controversial finish in the Blazers vs Kings game. 00:00 - Intro 002:22 - Reactions to the Knicks winning the NBA Cup 09:14 - Trae Young’s return spoiled by the Hornets 12:55 - Jalen Johnson reminds Tim Legler of Kevin Durant 17:22 - The Hornets young core create an insanely efficient offense 22:39 - Who's a better fit with Trae Young: Dyson Daniels or Nickeil Alexander-Walker? 24:50 - Mavs & Cooper Flagg outlast the Detroit Pistons and stay hot 30:55 - Will a lack of shooting be the downfall of the Pistons? 38:30 - The Pelicans surprise the Rockets and win in Overtime 47:23 - The Nuggets’ 2nd quarter run against the Magic was DOMINANT 49:58 - Suns outlast the Warriors in a nail biter 56:55 - The Blazers beat the Kings on a VERY controversial final play FOLLOW ALL NBA Twitter: http://x.com/ALLCITY_NBA Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/allcity_nba/ TikTok : http://www.tiktok.com/@ALLCITY_NBA An ALLCITY Network Production All music credited to Greg Kramer, check him out on Spotify!
