The NBA Finals are set. Indiana and Oklahoma City, two franchises built through patience and vision, are now battling for a championship. Meanwhile, in Phoenix, the Suns remain coachless, drifting in uncertainty, trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube of roster questions under the watchful eye of new general manager Brian Gregory.
With each postseason exit, a new door opens for speculation. Every fallen contender invites the same question: could they use a star like Phoenix Suns All-Star forward Kevin Durant? The Knicks, fresh off a six-game loss to the Pacers, might think so.
