The OKC Thunder are in the 2025 NBA Finals! SGA out-duelled (smoked) Ant Man again to book the Thunder’s first trip to the #NBAFinals since 2012! SGA led the way with a MASSIVE game and also walked away as the WCF MVP and snags his first Earvin 'Magic' Johnson Trophy. Ant Man... well... that was a bit disappointing.
And... was that Joe Ingles' final NBA game?
What worked so well for OKC? What went wrong for Minnesota? We break it ALL down in today’s episode of #NBA #Straya.
There’s also the NBA Straya Game Wraps, as well as the NBA Straya Awards: That’s Not A Knife, Old Mate No Mates, Spud of the Night, Better Than Lonzo Ball and more....
Plus YEAH NAHs, the Unpopular Opinion of the Day and OUTBACK TAKEHOUSE...
There’s also a quick Aussie NBA Player Watch… and an ANDREW GAZE GREY MAMBA AWARD… before a SWEATY HAIRY THROWBACK PLAYER OF THE WEEK!
We close out the show with a pick, preview and prediction for #Pacers @ #Knicks Eastern Conference Finals Game 5 for Friday May 28: will Indy book a ticket to take on OKC in the #Finals? Or will New York keep the series alive??
