@pablo.show graciously made some time to come through the NBA Daily virtual studios to chat with me & @justesbaraheni.bsky.social about the punishment for the Clippers and what comes next.

Did the Knicks just pull off the greatest championship run ever? Video for @theathletic.com:

Jalen Brunson, Steph Curry, Tony Parker and Isiah Thomas are the only guards 6’2 or shorter to win Finals MVP. This championship changes a lot for him as far as all-time status. Sort of like Dirk in 2011,

Spurs made some real adjustments that panned out in a major way in Game 3. Wemby on Hart permanently + Keldon on KAT to help them force more turnovers. 21 points off 13 turnovers for them. They also scored 40 points in the restricted area. Wemby/Castle/Harper cooked inside.

Victor Wembanyama has been absurdly good in this game. He has 14 of his 32 points in the restricted area. Again, the Spurs spacing in the pick-and-roll has allowed him to get easier looks via lobs, duck-ins.

19 points off turnovers for the Spurs after 3 quarters. That's the most they've had in these Finals so far.

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

The one guy who is flat-out just not afraid of Wemby as a defender: OG Anunoby.

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 09/06/2026

10 of Steph Castle’s 18 points have been in the restricted area. A couple of and-ones. The drives have been available for him and the rest of the Spurs guards tonight. Great sign for the Spurs.

It was around this time of Game 2 that KAT really started to assert his dominance. He led the Knicks to an 8-0 run just now. Assist to Clarkson in the corner, got fouled on an offensive rebound, took Fox 1-on-1 for the finish, and had the poke out that led to the OG three.

The Lakers score more efficiently in the pick-and-roll than any team in the NBA. Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves have made them impossible to guard. My latest video for @theathletic.com: youtu.be/ulceItTUmrU?...

“At some point, we have to ask ourselves what we’re willing to give up on defense?” - Brandon Ingram On the Raptors abysmal defensive start, the Green Knight, and delivering a promise: www.raptorsrepublic.com/2025/10/30/c...

Can the Raptors defense ever deliver on it’s promise? - Raptors Republic

The Raptors have not lived up to their promise of being an elite defensive team. Do they have to change their ways or proceed on the path they've laid out for themselves?

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 30/10/2025

The Raptors give up 139 points to the Rockets. Second time they've given up 139 in 5 games. Their defense is allowing 127.8 points per game. Atrocious defense.

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

The Rockets have 11 offensive rebounds, the Raptors have 13 TOTAL rebounds. The only reason they're in this game is because they're shooting 12/21 from three. Rockets put up 70 points at halftime. The Raptors have give up an average of 63 points at half to start the year.

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

Brandon Ingram is 7/7 from the field for 18 points -- just absolutely cooking on offense

0145

Justesbaraheni @justesbaraheni.bsky.social · 29/10/2025

This is what the Rockets do. 8 offensive rebounds leading to 10 second chance points. They bludgeon you on the glass. Makes it harder to run in transition also.

Jakob Poeltl is DOUBTFUL for Wednesday’s Raptors game with lower back tightness. He missed a few pre-season games with lower back soreness + left Spurs game early for that reason and hasn’t looked himself.

Collin Murray-Boyles with 16 points in 17 minutes on 11 shots. He also has two steals and two threes. Fun stuff from the rookie in his second game of the year.
