In this episode of The Sideline Sidetrack, Andrew recaps the pivotal Games 5 and 6 of the NBA Finals and previews a legacy-defining Game 7 between the Thunder and Pacers. From pressure mounting on stars like SGA and Halliburton, Jalen Williams’ breakout, to Siakam’s Finals MVP case, it’s all on the table. Beyond the box score, it’s a real conversation on how ring culture influences how we rank legends—KD, Kobe, LeBron, and more. In “Watch Later,” Andrew dives into the bizarre true story of the Great Emu War and later recommends new music from Offset & JID, and Big Gigantic. Plus, a rant on PTO headaches in this week’s “What’s the Deal?” segment.
