## Resource

Gavin Schall rolls solo to break down the golden opportunity to return to the NBA Finals for the first time in nearly 30 years. He shares how Cleveland presents some borderline unique challenges for the Knicks, while also being beatable. How James Harden and the Cavs bigs screening, and the Knicks' ability to defend it, is the inflection point of this series, and why Cleveland's double-big lineup puts the spotlight squarely on Josh Hart.
