Summer Of Change (May 2026)

The season is over. The Magic took Detroit to seven games as the eighth seed (with a 3:1 lead by game 4 before it all fell apart) and we're here to pick through the wreckage. Gary takes us through the latest news. Geraint is back from Orlando with stories from the Kia Center, Casey's bar, and the emotional rollercoaster of watching a 24-point lead evaporate in person. Drum delivers the blue sky thinking on a Game 6 where Paolo went 4-for-20 and the team scored 19 points in an entire second half, and somehow still finds reasons for hope. Mickey makes his long-awaited return to the pod as we get into the big one — Mosley's gone, Weltman's staying, so who's next? We go round the table with our top coaching picks, from Billy Donovan and Steve Kerr to Mike Budenholzer, Micah Nori, Chris Quinn, Becky Hammon and even a Dusty May curveball. Plus, what Paolo's role should be in the process, whether Weltman can nail the hire for a third time, and what this roster actually needs to take the next step.
