Lingering Finals thoughts and first offseason dominoes
We start this week's episode with an announcement about the future of PTR, before delving into some leftover Finals thoughts, including potential roadblocks for the Celtics and Mavs in the near and distant future. Then we assess the Alex Caruso-Josh Giddey swap for the Thunder and Bulls, wonder what the next move might look like for OKC, talk Pascal Siakam and Malik Monk's early extension agreements, the lack of such an agreement for Paul George, major coaching decisions in Detroit and L.A., and more.
