Gil's Arena PREDICTS Who Will Be The NBA Cup Champions as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew return to the arena and preview the final game of the NBA Cup where the Oklahoma City Thunder take on the Milwaukee Bucks to see who will win the ultimate prize of Adam Silver's midseason tournament. They discuss how a win will cement Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard and Doc Rivers' impressive turnaround and break down how this test in a playoff environment is exactly what Shai Gilgeous Alexander and his young OKC Thunder teammates need as they shift their focus to the NBA Playoffs. They also react to another vintage James Harden performance as the beard dropped 40 for the 2nd time this season and debate if he's getting enough credit for this Los Angeles Clippers season, before breaking down how Kawhi Leonard's return could change everything for the Clippers and Harden's elite bucket getting. Next, they return to South Beach to check back in on the Jimmy Butler trade rumors and discuss if the Miami Heat are playing too well to trade their superstar or if they're simply waiting it out for a bigger deal to materialize. Finally, the Gil's Arena Crew reacts to another highlight reel performance from Ja Morant and debate if the Denver Nuggets championship is still open with Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray as the franchise cornerstones.
