Yeah

Woohoo Yeah!

Yeah!

Yeah, we're on.

Welcome to the No Dunks podcast on The Athletic Network.

Happy May, everybody.

I'm Tassmellis.

With me, as always, the man in the middle is Trey Kirby.

Hey, yo.

Hey, yo. All right, J.D JD chiming in over there, making the magic happen. It is JD. Hello. What's up, J.D. No skates for the rest of the week. Just Trey, who was in the middle, who just mentioned to me that he had a great night with Skits playing basketball, so we have to, we have to mention that. Yeah,

biggest games of the night. Me and Skeets looking like Yokic and Murray out there, play it in.

The church gym got down a bunch of times to ask, but we were always coming back. Always.

Yeah, it was nice. Thank you. Thank you for that. What was also nice for the games last night, we'll get to those, of course. We'll get to LeBron's future with the Lakers. We'll get to the Pelicans' future this offseason. Some words were had about that. Chris Up's Porzingis injury update. But we've got to start with the game that isn't Trey Kirby. It is the Knicks and the Sixers. How did this end the way it did, Trey?

I don't get it.

Knicks up six, 28 seconds left.

Sixers are ready to be sent home for the entire summer and somehow they came back.

Tyree's Maxie obviously leads the way, but how, why, what's to talk about in this game, Trey, other than that ending, man. I mean, I guess we start the last 25 seconds. Yeah. Is this going to be called seven points in 25 seconds for Tyrese Maxi? I mean, I guess it's like technically seven points in 18 seconds. Right. Doesn't roll off the tongue the way eight points, nine seconds does for Reggie Miller, but it was definitely Reggie Miller-esque. This is how you get a tiny statue built in Philadelphia. Performances like this from Tyrese Maxie, literally saving the season. After Deuce McBride hit the jumper at the free throw line, I thought it was over. We went to go play another pickup game. I saw text messages coming in.

Good night, Philly, says my dad. RIP the process, says our buddy Jared. It seemed like it was over.

Yep. But then Mitchell Robinson lunged a little too far on Tyrese's pump fake. Maxi knocks it down,

goes to the free throw line, hits the jumper there. We play the foul game. Josh Hart leaves one way short.
