The Conference Finals are here! Between SGA, Jalen Brunson, Haliburton, and Ant, which player do you want to see win their first NBA Championship? Hate 'em or love 'em, the Knicks are good, and that's good for the NBA. Haliburton is going to give Brunson a lot of work and the depth of the Pacers bench and scoring in bunches will hurt the Knicks. On Oddball we are loud with our support of the Knicks… but secretly we think the Pacers have this in the bag. The Thunder-Timberwolves series will be the first time we see Ant Edwards take on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the playoffs... Can the young wolf knock off the MVP? The T-Wolves have flaws, but this series might be there for the taking. Can we trust Julius Randle? J-Dub vindicated himself after game 7, but Chet still has a lot to prove. Plus, people were so upset with Izzy's Cleveland rant that he decided to go on an apology tour. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
