Craig and Anthony dive into the unprecedented parity in the NBA, with seven different teams winning the title in the last seven seasons. What does this stretch of no repeat champions say about the league today? Is this the new normal in the post-superteam era, or just a unique run? They explore what this means for team-building, star movement, and the NBA's future.

Craig begins the show with a big-picture reaction to the Oklahoma City Thunder winning the 2025 NBA Championship. He reflects on the growth of the Thunder's core, led by Finals MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who averaged 30.3 points per game in the series. Craig also reacts to the devastating injury to Tyrese Haliburton—who tore his Achilles tendon in the first quarter—and how it drastically impacted the Pacers’ chances. What can the rest of the NBA learn from OKC’s rise? Craig breaks it all down.
