Bobby Krivitsky: Jaylen Brown with a message to Boston entering this summer and the prospect of a season without Jayson Tatum: “I know Boston, it looks gloomy right now, with JT being out until kind of the end of the year, but there’s a lot to look forward to and I want the city to feel excited about that.”

Clyde Frazier talks about Josh Hart getting the first Knick playoff triple double since he did it in 1972: “He’s the heart of the team. I saw the black eye, he was undaunted by that. The good rebounding. He grows on you, you watch him he just does whatever it takes to win a game.”

Sam Amick: You know what I mean? Like, they want every scenario to gut the other team. And Jon Horst is going to go for blood here, I’m telling you. He just got a new extension. He has the organization’s backing. Jon is not going to just try to be on good terms with Giannis—he’s trying to do right by the Bucks. And that means that if every scenario in play leaves the other team so gutted that Giannis might not actually be in that much better of a situation, then maybe that’s where he looks at the room and says, “All right, let me stay put.”

Sam Amick: But I mean—yes—like, it’s Steph’s party. It’s right next to Chase Center at the Splash restaurant and bar that they have there. It’s a Warriors evento. Yes, and it’s almost midnight. And Giannis and his wife Mariah—they come to the party. They go up the stairs, and the room kind of stops. Like, I’m literally talking to Joe Lacob in that moment, and it was pretty entertaining to see Joe kind of turn and start having—you know—kind of hearts in his eyes as he looks up the stairs. But that being said, the Warriors—and my colleagues at The Athletic just put this out yesterday—all signs point to them being all-in on the Jimmy Butler era. Major changes are not the focus right now. They want to build around their new Big Three. So, we’ll see where it goes.

Sam Amick: All the Kevin Durant to Houston talk? Kevin’s age and timeline don’t fit. I feel confident saying that’s not the direction they’re looking. Devin Booker was also on their short list before, but after a bad year, he’s likely fallen off.
