I don’t know about you, but these NBA Finals are even better than last June.   Of course, that’s always tough to say, since we don’t have a time machine to take us back to those feelings.

Who knows, maybe I was screaming while watching last year, and cried my eyes out when Gregg Popovich kept Tim Duncan on the bench in Game 6.  Not fandom crying, but crying out of disgust.

On another note, are you sick and tired of flopping in this league?

I know I am, and it’s made it laughable to wake up the next morning and see that a millionaire has only lost $5,000.  Really ….. pocket change?  Don’t be absurd.

On today’s episode of the Hard Screens Podcast, we dive into all of that!

I am joined by HoopsHabit’s Assistant (to the Regional) editor, Gerald Bourguet, to analyze the Finals, flopping, and head coaching vacancies being filled.

Yes, yes, yes.  We also take our best shot at the Carmelo Anthony saga, and react to the latest news of the Miami Heat wanting to make a run at the guy.

Don’t let it happen, Adam Silver!  BASKETBALL REASONS!

Enjoy the show, everyone:
