'26 NBA FINALS - RECAP Conference FINALS FreshMint Pod S3E8

We cover the first two games of the NBA Finals, the New York Knicks versus the San Antonio Spurs. The two games in San Antonio were hard fought and filled with mistakes by the upstart Spurs. They showed all of their cards early in the contest getting double figure leads, all to fall back into despair down the stretch and lost both games at home. They are now headed to the Mecca of basketball at Madison Square Garden where the crowd had been awaiting the return to the Garden and a possible sweep. The crowd will be diminished in a sense because an unwanted house guest is forcing the closure of the watch party areas around the building and fans that do get in the building are being treated to TSA style searches. Hopefully for the teams they won't be distracted too much. As for the Conference Finals, the favorites were Detroit in the East and Oklahoma City in the West. I think the league manipulated the results for the Spurs to be catapulted into the Finals. Detroit did themselves in and the Knicks are the class of the East, sweeping the last two rounds and winning 11 games in a row (13) to represent the East.
