Summary

Ken and Lima open the phones and the anger is real, with callers zeroing in on the same thing the hosts can't get past: seven straight Brunson possessions going at Harden with zero adjustment, zero timeout, and zero accountability in the postgame. The breakdown of why Atkinson had no good options defensively gets a fair hearing, but the conclusion is the same either way. The series isn't over, but Ken keeps saying it so much he admits it's starting to sound like he's convincing himself.
