Then, Tim Legler stops by to talk about the biggest keys for both the Knicks and Spurs, Karl-Anthony Towns' evolution, and what surprised him most about Wemby. Next, Hall of Famer Gary Payton joins the set to discuss what he loves about the guards in this series, some "would you rather" player debates, and the time he and Ryen nearly survived a plane crash.
