Description

Baron Davis Breaks Down NBA Finals Game 5 With Gil's Arena as the legendary California hooper joins the Gil's Arena Crew to break down the OKC Thunder's huge win over the Indiana Pacers in Game 5 of the NBA Finals and react to the Thunder's dynamic duo lifting their team to within one win of the NBA Championship. They debate if this career altering performance solidified Shai Gilgeous Alexander & Jalen Williams as the best duo in the NBA and discuss if Williams vaulted himself into the NBA Finals MVP discussion with his 40 point performance. They also dissect the game from the Pacers perspective as a calf injury held Tyrese Haliburton to his worst performance in the NBA Playoffs, sparking a debate over who will step up to push the Pacers to a Game 7. Next, the Gil's Arena Crew reacts to Magic Johnson's comments on the criteria for an NBA Superstar and give their take on how many true superstars are in the NBA before breaking down Magic calling out Luka Doncic over his conditioning late in the season, sparking a debate over whether or not they believe Luka is cut out to be the face of the Lakers. They then continue their discussion on the best landing spots for Kevin Durant, this time highlighting the San Antonio Spurs as the best landing spot for the Phoenix Suns' superstar. They discuss if it makes sense for the Spurs to leverage their impressive future to pair Victor Wembanyama with a Hall of Famer and debate if this move would immediately put the Spurs in contention for an NBA Championship. Finally, the Gil's Arena CALLS OUT Stephen A Smith for his terrible take that Giannis Antetokounmpo is an underachiever if he doesn't win another title and Baron Davis gives his take on various NBA topics like the Knicks' head coaching search, Jonathan Kuminga's contract battle with Golden State, and Russell Westbrook's future in the NBA.
