00:00There is a new NBA champ, Wiggy.

00:02Yep.

00:04And I don't know, maybe things would have gone differently

00:07if not for the injury to Halliburton.

00:10But you end up with the OKC Thunder as your NBA champions.

00:16And it didn't go the way they wanted, I guess, ratings-wise, Curtis.

00:22It was a good game.

00:23The first half, you fell apart if you're a Pacers fan.

00:26The team fell apart in the third quarter.

00:29And that's where they really, Oklahoma City, took advantage.

00:32Other than the kid, TJ McClellan, no one else could score.

00:35They had 18 points off a turnover.

00:37Tyrese looked good before he went down, though.

00:39He was having a game before it happened.

00:42Is he done for all of next year?

00:44Yeah, I think it's the Tatum thing.

00:46It is.

00:47Yeah, because you could see as soon as they showed the replay.

00:49Oh, and they showed it 9 million times.

00:51So, thank you.

00:52That was his Achilles that got popped.

00:54But, you know, Indiana still had a chance.

00:57They played them tough.

00:57But that third quarter is what changed it.

00:59And then they got up by 20.

01:01And in the end, they had one last run.

01:03But they couldn't do it.

01:04So, I mean, you know, good for Oklahoma City.

01:07It was a good series.

01:08It went seven games.

01:09But I'm just happy for the safety of the person that painted the buses that Oklahoma City won.

01:14Yes.

01:15Because he would have had a really long rest of his life if that cost the Thunder, their championship.

01:21If I'm a Pacers fan this morning, though, I wish that they had lost earlier.

01:24Because then you don't have to worry about Halliburton next season.

01:27Like, the fact.

01:28Because he was playing, what?

01:29It was a strained calf going into it, right?

01:31Yeah.

01:31Game five with the calf.

01:32Right, but obviously that impacted it.

01:33Yeah, that affected it, you know.

01:35But you never know those things are going to happen.

01:37It's like, you've got to go out there and play.

01:38And you're sorry.

01:39You're like, you know, you said he hit two threes.

01:42And then that was it.

01:43So, but, OKC.

01:44They've got a young team.

01:47We'll see what happens.

01:48Dynasty?

01:48Ah, it's.

01:50And they're going to be tough, though, man.

01:52They're going to be tough.

01:53They've got to pay Jalen Williams.

01:55Why would every team wins, no matter how obscure, do we have to spend the next week talking about if it's the start of a dynasty?

02:01Like, I feel like when I was growing up, you won three and then you started the conversation.

02:05Yeah.

02:06Yeah.

02:06I mean, they're legit has been, in my mind, no dynasty since the Patriots.

02:13I, I, the argument is, is attempted when it comes to the Chiefs.

02:19But there's no, like, is, can you think of any other that even comes close?

02:24Yeah, I would say probably the Chiefs would be the closest one.

02:28Not really, that's the closest one.

02:29What, they won three or four championships?

02:31They won three.

02:32So, I would say.

02:33Yeah, you would say that in like four or five years, right?

02:36I mean, I guess that the whole, the dynasty conversation has changed into, like, what's considered?

02:43Consider the dynasty winning two championships.
