Houston, We Have Firepower

Sports Illustrated Senior Writer Chris Mannix stopped by the show today. Manix explained why this year’s NBA Finals may belong to OKC on paper, but the defining moment will always be Tyrese Haliburton’s injury. The building deflated when he went down, and the narrative shifted. Mannix sees promise in OKC’s core, but reminds us: dynasty talk is dangerous. He also likes the Rockets’ gamble on Kevin Durant and hints at a quiet Spurs move for Giannis. The NBA never sleeps, and neither does this former friend of the show.
