Podcasts about Oklahoma City Thunder

Welcome to Part 2 of our very special episode of Mind the Game with LeBron James and guest co-host Tyrese Haliburton. In this episode, Tyrese and LeBron talk about the amazing 2025 Indiana Pacers playoff run, the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder and of course Tyrese's devastating injury in Game 7. Then the guys get into the lazy ‘overrated' narrative that surrounds Tyrese and what it's like being a villain in the NBA. And finally, the guys get into the teams that have been influenced by the Indiana Pacers including The Boston Celtics and the Phoenix Suns.Thanks for watching Mind the Game.

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley kick off today’s show with a story abut one of Mike’s neighbors. They recap the Nuggets’ game against the OKC Thunder last night, along with all the news surrounding it like the return of Jokic and Jamal Murray’s first All-Star Game. The NFL coaching Carousel has finally stopped, and VJ has been left without a job once again; the guys express how happy they are to have him back. The 6am Duo look at some mock drafts that have the Broncos shoring up their big positions of need. They discuss the rumor that the Vikings are interested in bringing George Paton back into their fold. What should the Broncos ask for in exchange? The guys discuss whether the Jokic injury was a blessing in disguise considering everything we’ve learned about this version of the Nuggets in the interim.  

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour comparing the NFL draft experts to a rodent before they debate if VJ staying in Denver is really as good as we all think it is. They break down how a fully healthy Nuggets team can dethrone the OKC Thunder and whether the narrative of unprofessionalism about Jamal Murray is unfair now that he’s an All Star.

With the NBA trade deadline days away, the conversation turns into pure domino math: what happens to the New York Knicks if Giannis Antetokounmpo does not get moved, and why that directly impacts Karl-Anthony Towns. Evan and Tiki Barber lay out the “60/40” trade vibe, the incentive for Giannis to move before the deadline, and why the Bucks might wait for a better summer offer. They also explain why the Knicks are boxed in by pick rules and roster construction, meaning a separate KAT deal could actually hurt their chances if the real goal is a future Giannis swing. The segment then pivots to fit, coaching, and buy-in, including a telling quote from Mikal Bridges about being “coachable,” and what it says about the Knicks identity under Mike Brown. The calls bring the chaos: are the Oklahoma City Thunder the real threat with all that draft capital, do the Golden State Warriors have the Super Bowl-week buzz angle, and is the ultimate gamble worth it, flipping KAT for Anthony Davis if it means a higher title ceiling?

Hour 2 opens with Jon Gruden finally addressing the rumor mill on Tampa sports radio, flatly saying there was “never anything” from the New York Jets. Evan and Tiki Barber dig into what that actually means, parsing the difference between an “offer” versus contact through agents, friends, or back channels, and why the wording can be technically true while still avoiding the full story. They also push back hard on fans dismissing credible reporting, defending Diana Russini and Zack Rosenblatt and explaining how information can be real while still being shaped by the motivations of whoever leaked it. The conversation turns into a bigger question: who benefits from the Gruden chatter being out there, and could it make Aaron Glenn look better or worse depending on what gets pinned on him versus Woody Johnson? Then the show takes a left turn into comedy when a caller, Ozzie from Woodridge, “bullies” both Evan and Shaun about their hair on YouTube, leading to on-air style changes, hat reveals, and plenty of roasting. On the phones, the Malik Willis conversation heats up with callers pitching him as a real Jets swing, plus trade ideas and fear that he ends up elsewhere. The hour closes by pivoting to the NBA trade deadline drama: how a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo move could ripple into a New York Knicks decision on Karl-Anthony Towns, why Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors keep getting mentioned, and the ultimate high-risk debate: is Anthony Davis worth the gamble if you are chasing a title?

On today’s episode, Jason discusses why he has a problem with folks who heap praise on Sam Darnold for making the Super Bowl being the same ones who go out of their way to bash reigning Super Bowl MVP Jalen Hurts, his expectations for Darnold in next week's Super Bowl against the New England Patriots, why it's clear that Shedeur Sanders getting selected for the Pro Bowl has everything to do with his popularity and nothing to do with his on-field play, and how the Oklahoma City Thunder could throw a monkey wrench in the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade market. #FSR Follow Jason on Twitter and Instagram.

In 2025, the whole world watched as Chicago native Cardinal Robert Prevost was elected Pope Leo XIV, the first American pope. Again, everyone watched as Conservative Christian Apologist Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University.But while religious news events like these were known world round, other important stories are being covered all the time by journalists like Bobby Ross Jr., a veteran religion reporter.In addition to covering Kirk and Leo, Bobby also wrote about Christian parents grieving in the wake of the Central Texas floods, faith's role in The Oklahoma City Thunder's championship-winning season, and the possibility of Christian higher education in Europe.So on this week's episode of the Religion Unplugged Podcast Matthew Peterson sat down with Bobby to discuss not only the news trends he anticipates in the year to come, but also his career of 25 years covering faith through on-the-ground reporting in all 50 states and in 20 different countries.Bobby started his career of reporting on what he calls “the Godbeat” back in 2001, when he was working for the Oklahoman.Today, he is Editor-in-Chief of The Christian Chronicle, which focuses on covering Churches of Christ all over the globe.

The Pacers walk back into Oklahoma City and do the most Pacers thing possible — they beat the NBA's best team and exorcise some serious demons. Indiana avenges last year's Game 7 heartbreak with a cathartic win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, delivering one of the most fun nights of an otherwise frustrating season. A career night from Jarace Walker, elite defense from Johnny Furphy in the starting lineup, and a near triple-double on hyper-efficient shooting from Andrew Nembhard powered the win. The Pacers did it shorthanded, too — without Tyrese Haliburton in the building, as he shared with Taylor Rooks that it was still too soon to return following his Game 7 Achilles injury. He made it clear though: the next time he's in OKC, he plans to be in uniform. A night of redemption, release, and a reminder of what this group is capable of when it all clicks.

In this episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast, Ethan Sands, Chris Fedor and Jimmy Watkins react to the Cavaliers' 136-104 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder and what it revealed about Cleveland's standing in the contender hierarchy. The conversation centers on the growing gap between a Thunder team operating with championship habits, clarity and edge, and a Cavs group still searching for a consistent identity. The trio examines why injuries can no longer explain Cleveland's uneven play, questionable decision-making and lack of collective assertiveness, particularly from a roster carrying the league's highest payroll. They dig into Evan Mobley's evolving responsibility within the offense, the pressure on the Cavs to play with force and purpose, and how OKC's maturity exposed uncomfortable truths about Cleveland's readiness for May and June. The episode also touches on Donovan Mitchell's All-Star starter snub, the mounting frustration around the Cavs' inability to establish a reliable formula, and why time is becoming less of an ally as expectations remain championship-level.

Send us a textIs the Oklahoma City Thunder a budding dynasty or a team that hasn't met its "Detroit Pistons" yet?In this deep dive, we explore the evolution of Michael Jordan from a statistically explosive rookie to a disciplined champion, and how that transformation serves as a warning for the modern-day OKC Thunder. While popular myths suggest MJ's dominance was inevitable, the reality was a precise, often tense psychological battle between refined instinct and defensive system.In this Episode, we discuss:The "Jordan Rules" Diagnosis: How the Detroit Pistons used "diagnostic pressure" to turn Chicago's best instincts into a predictable tell.Phil Jackson's Triangle as "Delay Technology": Why the famous offense wasn't about teaching Jordan to trust, but about forcing a "delay" to make his teammates consequential.The Scottie Pippen Game 7 Symbol: Re-evaluating the 1990 migraine through the lens of compressed space and psychological pressure.The OKC Thunder's Unfinished Question: Why their current "egalitarian" success is untested by the deep frustration that forced the Bulls to evolve.Shai Gilgeous-Alexander vs. The Apex: Comparing SGA's economical restraint to Jordan's early-career "responsibility".The 1991 Bulls didn't win because Jordan became "generous"—they won because he became strategic and learned to govern his own reflexes8. Does Mark Daigneault's 0.5 system provide the same containment, or is the Thunder's real test still waiting in the wings?Until next time Keep your eyes up and your dribble low. Support the showDid you know we are one of the Top 30 Collage Podcasts in the World! https://podcast.feedspot.com/college_basketball_podcasts/?feedid=5529823&_src=f1_featured_email Support the Pod or Binge the Entire Season Now! https://www.buzzsprout.com/1269236/support https://youtube.com/@IconicSeasons Connect on Social https://www.instagram.com/ncaaiconicseasons/

On today's episode of “Fearless,” Jason explains that offenses in the NFL have become downright offensive. The final three games of the NFL playoffs highlighted the lack of offensive ingenuity. LeSean McCoy claimed that the Philadelphia Eagles' offense was limited because Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is incapable of executing exotic elements of different formations. Jason ponders whether we're watching the death of the RPO offenses. Danny Kanell joins Jason to discuss these topics, while answering the question of whether Aaron Rodgers or Mike Tomlin is worthy of another season in Pittsburgh. Kanell reveals whether he believes in Caleb Williams and if the 2025 Indiana Hoosiers are a historically great football team. Jay Skapinac is next up, discussing another Steelers playoff decimation before delving into the NBA world, sharing his thoughts on whether the Oklahoma City Thunder are what we thought they were and if the Lakers should trade Austin Reaves. Lastly, Jason gives his thoughts on reporter Lynn Jones-Turpin's viral clip praising Liam Coen's first season as head coach. ​​Today's Sponsors: ZBiotics  ZBiotics Pre-Alcohol Probiotic Drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking.
