Jose Salviati and Steve Purciello preview the set 2026 NBA Finals (Spurs vs. Knicks) via Steve’s “13 Rules: Random NBA Thoughts,” focusing on San Antonio’s need to get Victor Wembanyama at least 20 shots and use him more effectively near the foul line/post rather than only up top, while noting modern tendencies to pass up sure twos for threes. They criticize Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson’s “expected score” comment after losing to New York, then discuss the Knicks’ unusual, dominant playoff run despite finishing third in the East and debate whether their hot streak can continue after a layoff. They examine Cleveland’s offseason options, including trading Evan Mobley for Giannis and the possibility of LeBron returning, while distinguishing “stars” from “alphas.” They review OKC’s issues versus San Antonio, praise Spurs defense, condemn late-game showboating dunks, assess Mitchell Robinson’s pinky injury impact, and give finals predictions (Steve: Knicks in six; Jose: Spurs).
