Desmond Bane, Jalen Brunson DELIVER with HUGE nights to ADVANCE in NBA Cup

Orlando Magic rally past Miami Heat behind Desmond Bane’s electrifying 37-point showcase—can the Magic’s defensive grit fuel a Cup run in Las Vegas?

The episode unpacks Josh Hart’s sharpshooting, the Heat’s offensive woes, and the Raptors’ fast decline despite Brandon Ingram’s best efforts. The hosts preview upcoming Western Conference Cup matchups, debate regular-season milestones, and question whether the Oklahoma City Thunder’s historic pace is sustainable.
