Hoops Tonight - Jalen Williams DOMINATES...

About this episode

Jason reacts to Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers. He starts by diving into Thunder star Jalen Williams’ 40-point performance and how his consistency has helped OKC up until this point take a 3-2 lead in the series. Jason discusses Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's floor game and how it has impacted his best two performances in Game 5 and Game 2, respectively. Jason also praises Chet Holmgren the OKC defense as a whole in the fourth quarters of these Finals games. Next he discusses Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton's struggles, and how he believes it is disingenuous to blame his poor game on his injury as there have been more instances of him no-showing in the playoffs. Jason wraps up discussing Myles Turner and his belief that Rick Carlisle is not putting his big man in advantageous positions defensively.
