Podcasts about eastern conference finals

Four years.$273 million.A player option.A full trade kicker.And a Cleveland Cavaliers team that can no longer hide behind “we're still learning.”In this episode of Beyond The Game: Pick A Side Sports, Q breaks down what Donovan Mitchell's massive extension really means for Cleveland. Because the question is not whether Mitchell is good enough to get paid. He is.The real question is whether the Cavs are good enough around him to win big.After 52 wins, an Eastern Conference Finals run, and a sweep at the hands of the Knicks, Cleveland is officially out of “almost” season. If you pay like a contender, you have to build like one.But the East is not waiting around.Giannis is in Miami.Jaylen Brown is in Philly.The Knicks are sitting on the throne.Boston is retooling.Toronto is trying to bring back that old feeling.And Cleveland just locked in its star while the rest of the conference started loading up.Q gets into the real Eastern Conference question: did Cleveland lock in a championship window, or did the Cavs just pay top-tier money for a team that may still be one tier short?Then it is time for the NFL check-in.Shedeur Sanders is trying to close the gap in the Browns' quarterback battle, but the name cannot be louder than the numbers. Q looks at the receipts from Shedeur's rookie season, the training camp buzz, and whether Cleveland should give him a real shot — or make him earn every bit of it.Plus, Travis Hunter is one of the NFL's most unique talents, but should Jacksonville use him heavily both ways or protect the investment and make cornerback the priority?And later, Q brings out Start, Bench, Cut with one of the nastiest debates yet:Most entertaining prime:Allen Iverson.Derrick Rose.Russell Westbrook.Not the best career.Not the greatest legacy.Most must-see TV.This is not lazy hot takes.This is not fake outrage.This is sports talk with receipts, humor, context, and a clear point of view.Around here, we do not sit on the fence.Pick a side.

Breaking news drops mid-show that Donovan Mitchell has agreed to a four-year, $273 million extension with the Cavaliers, and Ken and Anthony debate whether it clears the way for a LeBron signing or is simply about locking in stability now. Ken pushes back hard on fans who turned on Mitchell after the Eastern Conference Finals sweep, arguing he's been a drama-free, community-focused superstar performing at or above his Utah numbers, and that no other star of his caliber is walking through Cleveland's door anytime soon. The two also revisit an old on-air disagreement where Ken once said he'd rather have Freddie Kitchens than Mike Vrabel, with a joking detour into Diana Rossini's relationship. The segment closes with Ken and Lima debating whether they'd rather see LeBron sign for one all-in year or two years given the physical toll at his age.

Ken and Anthony spend most of the segment arguing over Ken's choice to watch Guardians baseball over non-USA World Cup matches, with Anthony accusing him of being disingenuous about his soccer interest. Ken insists he's not ignoring the World Cup, just prioritizing the Guardians' tight division race, and says he'd only skip a Guardians game for the World Cup final itself. They also touch on a listener email backing Ken's earlier theory that NBA media (like Stephen A. Smith) roots for players to land in cities they personally prefer to visit. Ken and Anthony agree James Harden's stereotype as a bad fit ignores his real production in the Cavs' run to the Eastern Conference Finals.

Ken and Anthony replay Danny Cunningham's take defending Kenny Atkinson as coach for a potential LeBron-led roster, then debate whether the Cavs' three Hall of Fame-caliber players actually need a tougher voice rather than a "player's coach." Ken raises the comparison to David Blatt getting swapped for Ty Lue after LeBron's first stint, questioning whether the team's apparent lack of urgency in the Eastern Conference Finals reflects a lack of respect for Atkinson. Anthony counters that Atkinson isn't the problem, noting the Cavs still made the conference finals despite injuries and that most reporters expected him to keep his job. They close by noting LeBron has historically avoided the "coach killer" label, meaning a coaching change tied to his arrival would be a delicate, unlikely move.

Ken and Anthony open with a Fourth of July fireworks safety tangent before circling back to whether Kenny Atkinson is really equipped to coach LeBron James, questioning if he's a legitimate "player's coach" or someone the roster ignored during their Eastern Conference Finals collapse. A caller named Diane predicts LeBron will announce his decision on July 11th, pointing to the date's link to his original 2014 return to Cleveland, and brings up his emotional, tearful tribute at Rocket Arena as proof of how much the city still means to him. Ken and Anthony agree that moment seemed to hit LeBron harder than almost anything else in his career. The segment closes teasing a discussion on whether the Cavs are being too stubborn about trading Evan Mobley.

Reacting to Jayson Tatum's historic 51-point performance & the Celtics advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals, special guest Donnie Wahlberg joins Max & Josue to discuss if Boston has finally turned the corner toward an NBA title or if Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat can stop them in their tracks. 0:00 Donnie joins the pod! 0:55 Jayson Tatum propels Celtics to ECF 2:58 Boston is just deeper 4:20 Jaylen called out the Garden 8:50 Donnie's Mt.

Ken argues the Cavs front office quietly accepted at the trade deadline that the Eastern Conference Finals was this year's realistic ceiling, once Rich Paul effectively forced the Darius Garland for James Harden trade and left no time to build chemistry. He pushes back hard on fans wanting a "punitive" shakeup just to feel something, insisting a Jaylen Brown deal would only stack the backcourt, age the roster, and shrink the championship window without fixing anything real. Ken draws his line in the sand: as built, this team can't beat the Knicks, Thunder, or Spurs, but it can beat everyone else in the East, so patience matters more than a splashy move for its own sake. He closes the show thanking Brian Geltzeiler, Mike Florio, and Danny Cunningham for a packed morning of Sorsby and Cavs debate.

Brian Geltzeiler joins to weigh in on a possible Evan Mobley for Jaylen Brown swap and says he'd make the deal as Boston but isn't convinced as Cleveland, arguing Mobley's offensive ceiling has been capped by usage rather than talent. The segment derails into a heated argument when Anthony pushes back on Geltzeiler calling James Harden's Eastern Conference Finals performance "humiliating," comparing it unfavorably to Victor Wembanyama, and Geltzeiler abruptly threatens to hang up over the disrespect before the call actually drops. After patching things up, Geltzeiler argues the Cavs have a roster structure problem, with Mobley miscast next to Jarrett Allen instead of playing center outright, and says running the same group back next year guarantees the same result. He closes things out on a lighter note, confirming AJ Dybantsa was the right pick at number one in last night's draft.

Ken goes on a rant after a fan tweet compares the Cavs to a play-in team, using it to defend the James Harden trade and call out anyone still nostalgic for the Darius Garland and Colin Sexton era. He insists a trip to the Eastern Conference Finals is nowhere close to mediocre, no matter how it ended. Then the conversation shifts to Jaylen Brown's frustrated Twitch comments after his name leaked in trade talks, with Ken and Anthony weighing whether Evan Mobley should actually be on the table to get him.

Cavaliers Chief Marketing Officer Chris Kaiser joins Ken Carman and Anthony Lima to break down Friday's 10-year anniversary celebration of the 2016 championship, including a new championship-themed basketball court and a commercial-free replay of Game 7 at the Meet Me Here Plaza downtown. Kaiser opens up about how tricky it is to honor the franchise's past while staying focused on a current team fresh off an Eastern Conference Finals run, especially with LeBron James's free agency looming over everything the marketing department plans. Carman also gets Kaiser to explain the surprisingly well-organized process behind auctioning off the actual seat Taylor Swift sat in during the playoffs, which fetched a notable price for charity.

Andy and Jeff talk about what the Cavaliers can do this off season to fix the issues that kept them from winning the Eastern Conference Finals.

The Devil's Ledger | Week of June 15th, 2026 This week on The Devil's Ledger, we begin with something that feels almost surreal—the New York Knicks are World Champions. A long-awaited moment for a franchise and a fanbase that has carried decades of hope, frustration, and belief. From the Canyon of Heroes to living rooms across the country, this is more than a title—it's a moment etched into the mythology of New York sports. The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week A moment in time that may not have moved the way it should have. We revisit Game 3 of the 1999 Eastern Conference Finals, when Larry Johnson stepped to the line for one of the most iconic plays in Knicks history. But for those who were there, the memory isn't just the shot—it's what happened right before it. A strange thinning of sound. A collective pause. A sense that something had aligned just long enough for the outcome to land exactly where it was supposed to. Was it pressure? Adrenaline? Or something harder to explain? On The Devil Within We launch a brand-new summer series: Campfire Files: Stories That Follow Us Home These aren't distant legends or secondhand stories. These are grounded, firsthand accounts that begin in the places we trust the most—campgrounds, lakes, beaches, and vacation homes. We start in the Great Smoky Mountains, where a family trip turns into something far more unsettling. What begins as a quiet weekend in the woods slowly reveals something that doesn't behave the way it should—and doesn't stay where it started. We'll be here all summer, exploring encounters that begin in familiar places and follow people long after they leave. On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio returns with another sharp, unsettling look at the human condition—where ambition, envy, and pressure collide in ways that feel all too recognizable. These are the kinds of stories that happen more often than we'd like to admit—and still manage to surprise us every time. On The Culture of Criminal Cool Season One has wrapped, but the story may not be over. There are whispers of additional material, extended interviews, and possibly even new conversations with Adam Diaz. Nothing confirmed yet—but enough to keep your attention. On The Slippery This week's episode dives into the disturbing case of Dr. Thomas Weiner, once one of the most respected oncologists in Helena, Montana. What begins as the story of a trusted medical figure quickly unravels into something far darker, centered around a patient treated for over a decade for a disease they never had. As the investigation deepens, the image of a respected doctor begins to fracture—revealing patterns that raise troubling questions about trust, oversight, and how something like this could go on for so long. This Week in Horror A new film out of Norway taps into one of the oldest and most enduring myths: Kraken Strange behavior in marine life. Unexplained deaths in deep water. And the suggestion that something ancient has resurfaced. It's a return to elemental horror—vast, unknowable, and just beneath the surface.

Ken and Lima react to the Knicks winning their first championship since 1973 and debate what it means for Cleveland's title window. They push back on the overreaction to James Harden's arrest and the calls to void his contract, arguing the Cavs wouldn't have reached the Eastern Conference Finals without him. The guys make the case that New York's run should give Cavs fans hope, but also make them more desperate to add another piece around Donovan Mitchell.

The hosts of 92.3 The Fan discuss the rival New York Knicks' dominant run to the Finals, where they held a 3-1 lead over the favored San Antonio Spurs after Wednesday night's historic comeback. Does the Knicks' performance against the Spurs make you feel better about the Eastern Conference Finals? How far are the Cavs from the Finals, and does the Knicks' emergence as a force to be reckoned with mean the Cavs will have to be more aggressive this offseason?

While Caroline is honeymooning in the Dolomites, Lily Shimbashi, founder of Sportsish, joins us to break down the most important news in sports and pop culture. Madison Square Garden is on our minds this week – and it's not just because the Knicks lost at home. Rumor has it that Taylor Swift's wedding will take place at the iconic New York City arena on July 3. Are we buying it? No. What's are people *actually* buying when it comes to the pop star? The literal chair she sat on during the Cav's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. We hate it here too.

On Monday, Philadelphia Union II took on Côte d'Ivoire at Subaru Park in the African nation's final tune-up before the start of its World Cup campaign. Philadelphia Union II welcomed Cavan Sullivan back to the second team for the first time since 2025. The match also saw former Union II players and current college standouts Jojo Elliott (Delaware), Henry Bernstein (Maryland), Gavin Wetsel (Pittsburgh), and Daniel Krueger (Wake Forest) return to the fold.

Todd and José are joined by Anthony Fontana to discuss Jim Curtin to Austin FC, Fontana's experience training with Union II over the past few weeks, playing in his first match at Subaru Park since 2021, what he hopes his next move is in his career, and the 2026 World Cup.

“Regardless of what people think of me, I know who I am & let my play talk for me.” Trae Young  Some conversations hit right on time and this is one of them- we sit down with NBA star Trae Young for one of his most personal and revealing episodes yet, peeling back the layers of one of sports' most misunderstood stars. From Oklahoma roots to growing up under the guidance of his father and navigating the pressures that came with being a basketball prodigy, Trae opens up about the journey that shaped him into one of the league's most polarizing and electrifying players. He reflects on draft night, being traded moments after being selected, and how that blockbuster deal fueled the chip on his shoulder from day one. Trae shares stories from his high school days competing alongside future NBA stars Jalen Brunson and De'Aaron Fox, the doubts he faced throughout his career, and the motivation he found every time critics counted him out. He revisits his unforgettable playoff battles in New York, embracing the infamous "F*** You Trae Young" chants at Madison Square Garden and turning hostility into fuel. The conversation also takes a deeper look at his years in Atlanta—the highs, the heartbreaks, and the magical run to the Eastern Conference Finals that changed the trajectory of his career. Trae reflects on falling short of reaching the NBA Finals, the lessons learned from adversity, and what it meant to carry a franchise's expectations. Setting the record straight, Trae opens up for the first time on how the move to the Wizards became a reality and the misconceptions around his departure from the Hawks, a city that he called home for so long.  Now entering a new chapter following his move from Atlanta to Washington, Trae discusses leaving behind the city that drafted him, embracing a fresh opportunity with a hungry group of young players and the legacy he hopes to build moving forward. He takes us inside his circle, to understand more just why and how the trade came together. In an emotional moment, Trae reflects on the bond with his younger brother, the urge to protect him every step of the way and how he works to make sure his career doesn't cast a shadow on the future he's creating. Raw, honest, and insightful, this episode reveals the man behind the headlines as Trae opens up about family, criticism, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of greatness.
