## Resource

In this episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast, Ethan Sands, Chris Fedor and Jimmy Watkins dissect the Cleveland Cavaliers' historic fourth-quarter collapse against the New York Knicks in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. After the Cavs squandered a 22-point lead to lose in overtime, the discussion heavily critiques head coach Kenny Atkinson for his lack of in-game adjustments—most notably failing to call timely timeouts to stop the Knicks' momentum and repeatedly allowing an exhausted James Harden to be isolated defensively against Jalen Brunson. The hosts also address star guard Donovan Mitchell's late-game disappearance, the team's ineffective bench utilization, and the pressing need for internal accountability and tactical changes heading into Game 2.
