NFL Season Preview ft. Tony Cavallo | Season Predictions, RB Salary Issues | EP 47 | KG Certified

Kevin Garnett is officially on correspondent duty for the most cracking Summer League he can remember. KG runs through the rookie class he’s been waiting on: Darryn Peterson 25-and-12 statement, Kareem Lopez making history as the first Mexican-born first-round pick, and the Boozer-Lopez frontcourt that could flip Memphis.

Then it gets real. KG keeps it a buck on the Jaylen Brown trade (“I wanted JB to retire a Celtic”), why it feels like KD leaving Golden State all over again, why he’s heated for New York losing Mitchell Robinson, where LeBron should actually sign now that the Lakers chapter is closed, and why Ja Morant in Portland might be exactly the fresh air he needs.

The Knicks are champions and New York will never be the same. Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce break down how Brunson closed it out, why one ring just put him on the Mount Rushmore of New York athletes, and how a city that hasn’t won in over 50 years is about to throw a parade for the ages.

Then the guys get into Wemby’s reality check — a rough first Finals, the no-handshake walk-off, and what the Spurs’ young core needs next. Plus the Giannis sweepstakes heating up (Boston? Cleveland? Minnesota?), why guard play is the new currency in the West, and which stars need a big summer to climb back into the conversation. Ticket & Truth also relive their own 2008 title on the anniversary of the night the Celtics got it done.

The road team has won every single game of this Finals, and Game 3 was the wildest one yet. KG and Paul break down Victor Wembanyama’s bounce-back, Stephon Castle going absolutely nuclear on both ends, and a rookie Dylan Harper coming off the bench being a differencemaker. Then they get into the part everybody’s mad about: 24 second-half free throws to 8, Mike Brown losing it, and whether the refs just decided Game 3.

Plus: should the Spurs actually put Fox on the table, what New York’s crowd energy (the butters in the front row, the anthems, the whole circus) does to a road team, and what has to change before Game 4. Two Hall of Famers, no filter.
