Summary

Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs are one win away from advancing after beating the Minnesota Timberwolves to take a 3-2 series lead. Wes Goldberg, Matt Moore and Haize break down Wemby’s response after being ejected in Game 4, why this was a superstar moment, and how Dylan Harper’s 12 points, 10 rebounds and clutch third-quarter buckets helped blow the game open. Then, the crew reacts to the Philadelphia 76ers dismissing Daryl Morey and what it means for the future of the franchise. Was Morey’s tenure a failure? What comes next with Joel Embiid’s massive contract, Paul George’s deal and Tyrese Maxey at the center of Philadelphia’s next era? Plus, the Cavaliers and Pistons meet in a pivotal Game 5 with the series tied 2-2. Who has been the best player so far? Who has disappointed? And what adjustment could decide the closest series of the second round?
