For our season finale, we wanted to turn to you, our amazing listeners, for some insightful questions for IT. Who are some of the best coaches IT has worked with and what did he learn from them? How did he figure out how to score at the rim on bigger defenders? How did his mentality change over time as he moved up the ranks? Who are the most intense trash-talkers on the court? IT digs into all of these questions and more, exploring the core childhood memories that made him who he is today. It's been an amazing season, and we want to thank our fans again for tuning in! We can't wait to dig back into all things basketball in the fall.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On this week's special episode we're joined by Seattle and Knicks legend Nate Robinson! Of course we get Nate to weigh in on New York winning their first championship in over 50 years and what it was like to be a Knick in the early 2000's. We also dig into Nate and I.T.'s deep friendship and how Nate has mentored and motivated him over the years. As two of the greatest small guards to ever play the game, Nate and I.T. also spend some time digging into what it really takes to make it as a small guard in the NBA.  Have a question for I.T.?

The NBA Finals concluded in historic fashion with the New York Knicks winning their first championship since 1973. The guys have to give credit where credit's due to these Knicks, but the unprecedented amount of blown double-digit leads by the Spurs was insane to witness. I.T. breaks down why this may have happened, and what the Spurs can do to get better next season. I.T. and C.J. also take a minute to look ahead – Summer League will be an amazing opportunity for I.T. to work out with and watch some rising talent. And the guys can't help but speculate on a few key star players' next moves in free agency: where will Giannis, Ja, and LeBron end up? I.T. has a couple of hot takes for good measure.  Have a question for I.T.?

Recorded before Game 3, I.T. and C.J. catch up on what they've been seeing from both the Spurs and the Knicks so far in this series. Brunson and KAT are playing in an incredibly organic way that just so happens to throw Wemby's game off completely. On top of that, the Spurs' role players aren't quite hitting their stride yet and it's making all the difference. If the Knicks can pull this off, it will be a Finals run for the history books. And speaking of hoop history, C.J. puts I.T. to a new test this time around – he has to blind rank 10 epic Finals moments with zero time to prep. Can you guess which moment went #1? You know we have to talk sneakers too, so I.T. and C.J. round up all the best shoe selections they've been seeing on the court. As always, we round things out with our No Days Off segment, where we shout out the unsung heroes in these exciting games.  Have a question for I.T.?

I.T. called the Spurs going all the way back in February, and he wasn't lying! And now, after a truly legendary playoffs, we're finally here: the NBA Finals! Before we look ahead, C.J. and I.T. take a second to break down the dramatic Spurs/OKC Game 7 from this past weekend, including some tough love for Chet Holmgren, some much-deserved praise for SGA both on and off the court, and nothing but love for the incredible role players on both squads for stepping up throughout the series. Next, C.J. and I.T. look ahead to the Finals. A 1999 rematch, an NBA Cup rematch, and the biggest stage possible to launch Wemby into superstardom. Will the Spurs begin their dynasty? Or will Brunson break the curse and become the greatest Knick of all time? Like every episode, we end with some quick games: I.T. redrafts the 2011 draft class with 15 years of hindsight and ranks the top 5 all-time signature shoe lines. And to round things out, this week's No Days Off award goes to none other than Julian Champagnie, who put on an insane 3-point clinic in Game 7. Have a question for I.T.?
