RealGM Radio with Danny Leroux

The New York Knicks are headed to the NBA Finals, and their run raises a fascinating team-building question: how did they build a championship contender without relying on homegrown lottery picks? Wes Goldberg is joined by Gavin Schall of Locked On Knicks to break down how New York built its Finals team around Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges. Unlike past Knicks regimes that chased shortcuts with moves like Eddy Curry, Joakim Noah, Andrea Bargnani and Steve Francis, this version of the Knicks showed patience, adjusted the roster over time and built a real championship formula. Then, John Wilmes of RealGM joins to talk about the biggest NBA offseason questions. What should the Cleveland Cavaliers do after falling short? Where could Giannis Antetokounmpo or Kawhi Leonard land if they hit the trade market? What happens with Ja Morant? And which surprise stars — including Devin Booker, Joel Embiid, Kyrie Irving, Alperen Sengun and Zion Williamson — could become trade candidates?

Wes Goldberg and Mike Shearer are back with Good Take on the RealGM Radio, starting with their reactions to the Oklahoma City Thunder taking Game 2 of the Western Conference finals vs the San Antonio Spurs. Mike opens with a bold free agency prediction. Then Wes argues that NBA teams are realizing something important: it's almost impossible to win a championship when your best player is over 30. From Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Victor Wembanyama, to Jalen Brunson and Donovan Mitchell, the league is shifting toward younger stars. What does that mean for Giannis trade offers, Kawhi Leonard's market, Kevin Durant's next move and teams like the Cavaliers or Rockets? Plus, Wes makes the case for Durant becoming the NBA's John Wick, and the guys lay out three ways to fix the Dallas Mavericks this offseason.

Wes Goldberg and Mike Shearer are back with Good Take on the RealGM Radio YouTube channel, starting with the Cavaliers' overtime win over the Pistons. After Kenny Atkinson claimed Cleveland had the momentum in the series, Wes and Mike debate whether the Cavs are actually in control or if Detroit still has answers. Then it's time for the week's best NBA takes. Wes argues that everyone is talking about the San Antonio Spurs the wrong way. Victor Wembanyama is the headline, but Dylan Harper might be the missing piece who turns San Antonio into the NBA's next great powerhouse. Could Wemby and Harper become the best long-term duo in the league — or even the next Shaq and Kobe? Mike brings a take on why Jalen Duren's restricted free agency could become one of the most interesting storylines of the offseason.

The NBA playoffs are creating big questions across the league, and this episode of RealGM Radio starts with a fast-moving five-pack of NBA observations. First, Wes Goldberg breaks down the Cavaliers' massive 23-0 run against the Pistons, Donovan Mitchell's takeover, and the adjustments Detroit must make to keep the series alive. Was this the version of Mitchell Cleveland has been waiting for, and did the Pistons miss their best chance to steal control of the series? Then, after another close Lakers loss and the Thunder advancing to the Western Conference Finals, Wes looks at LeBron James' uncertain future. LeBron said he doesn't know what comes next, but his postgame comments about being a third option and still chasing championships raise a bigger question: could he eventually look for a different role somewhere else? Wes also reacts to the NBA Draft Lottery, including big wins for the Bulls and Grizzlies, a mock draft scenario involving Darryn Peterson, AJ Dybantsa, Cam Boozer, Darius Acuff Jr. and Caleb Wilson, plus what Victor Wembanyama's elbow moment says about his mindset. And with reporting that the Milwaukee Bucks are seeking trade offers for Giannis Antetokounmpo, Wes explains what the Bucks should prioritize if they move their franchise superstar — and why a full teardown might not be the right path. Then, Dieter Kurtenbach of the Bay Area News Group joins RealGM Radio to discuss the mood around the Golden State Warriors, why Steph Curry may age better than Kevin Durant, the NBA Draft Lottery, changes in NBA media coverage, the rise of betting and analysis on broadcasts, streaming, regional sports networks, and whether the Oklahoma City Thunder's rise has actually been good for the NBA.
