"I believe this is a coin-toss series. I know that a lot of people thought a few months back — whoever wins the West wins the title. Well, now I don’t believe that... I truly believe in my heart both of these teams have what it takes on both ends of the floor, and with their depth and balance and coaching to be the team that ends up hosting a parade. I believe that in my heart."

Tim Legler sits with @Brian_Martin to discuss calling his first NBA Finals game and previews Spurs-Knicks ahead of Game 1, tonight at 8:30pm/et on ABC!

Week 25's Must-See Matchups 👀

@Brian_Martin: "If the postseason began today, this would be a potential second-round matchup between the No. 1 Thunder and No. 4 Nuggets. However, Denver has a chance to climb up to No. 3 and avoid the defending champs until the Western Conference Finals, as the Nuggets enter this week tied with the No. 3 Lakers with four games to play."

Week 22’s Must-See Matchups 👀

@Brian_Martin: “The Hawks enter Monday’s matchup seeking their first double-digit winning streak since 2015, trying to become the fourth in the NBA this season to reach 10 straight wins or more, joining OKC (16), Detroit (13) and San Antonio (11). To do that, they’ll need to defeat the team with the second-longest active win streak in the East (Orlando, seven straight).”

Week 21's Must-See Matchups 👀

@Brian_Martin: “The Celtics are 2-0 since Jayson Tatum returned to the lineup on Friday after missing 10 months while recovering from a torn Achilles. Can they keep that momentum going when they visit a Spurs team that has won 15 of its last 16 games?”
