In this episode, Kaim breaks down a massive Game 4 win for the Oklahoma City Thunder, who tie the Finals 2-2 and (maybe) slam the door shut on the Indiana Pacers’ title hopes. Despite an ugly shooting night, OKC rode Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s fourth-quarter brilliance—and maybe a few uncalled offensive fouls—to victory. Is Shai getting star treatment from the refs? We talk about that.

Then, the first blockbuster trade of the offseason hits: Desmond Bane is headed to Orlando in a monster deal that sends KCP, Cole Anthony, four first-round picks, and a pick swap to Memphis. The Magic are making a massive bet—will it lead to a ring, or regret?

The playoffs are heating up. In this episode of 3 in the Key, we break down four of the biggest storylines from this wild postseason:

Steph Curry goes down, and so might the Warriors. Can Golden State survive without their superstar in a series that might not last long enough for his return?

Boston chokes two massive leads while the Knicks shock the world with comeback wins and a 2-0 lead. Can Tatum and the Celtics flip the script, or are the Garden boys for real?

Haliburton and the Pacers steal two in Cleveland, and now the pressure's on. Is this the beginning of the end for the Cavs’ dream season, or can Donovan Mitchell pull off a miracle?
