Steve Hartman, host of the Splash City Basketball Podcast, talks about the key stat for the Minnesota Timberwolves to beat the San Antonio Spurs.

Donovan Mitchell & James Harden killed Detroit in G3, but can they do it AGAIN in G4 for the Cavs?
Stars often decide playoff games. In Games 1 and 2, Cade Cunningham was the best player on the floor and carried his team to victory. In Game 3, it was Donovan Mitchell’s turn to show why he’s a perennial All-NBA player. Mitchell’s heroics to start and a nine-point fourth quarter from James Harden to close helped the Cleveland Cavaliers climb back into their second-round series against the Detroit Pistons with a 116-109 win in Game 3. Detroit still owns a 2-1 series lead. Starts to games have been an issue for the Cavs throughout the first two games of the series. They’ve lost the first half by 13 and 11 in the first two games of the series. That trend turned around in Game 3, or at least it did after the first three minutes. Detroit got out to a quick seven-point lead after Duncan Robinson and Cunningham hit two tough contested triples right out of the gates. The Cavs settled in from there. They found a way to get into the paint in the opening frame. Mitchell and Jarrett Allen led the charge, as each delivered nine points in the first quarter, leading to a narrow two-point advantage after one. | https://www.fearthesword.com/cavs-scores-results/49123/cavs-recap-detroit-pistons-game-3-cleveland-cavaliers-jarrett-allen-donovan-mitchell-james-harden-cade-cunningham-evan-mobley Subscribe and ring the bell for the latest talk about the Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Guardians, Cleveland Cavaliers and Ohio State Buckeyes: https://bit.ly/ucss_subscribe Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ultclesports Watch live on YouTube 11 a.m.-1 p.m. weekdays on YouTube and WKYC+ on your Roku and Fire TV apps!

San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves Full Game 4 Highlights - May 10, 2026 | NBA Playoffs
San Antonio Spurs vs Minnesota Timberwolves Full Game 4 Highlights - May 10, 2026 | NBA Playoffs #nba #highlights #basketball Anthony Edwards had 16 of his 36 points in the fourth quarter to help the Minnesota Timberwolves even their second-round NBA playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs with a 114-109 victory, following the stunning ejection of star Victor Wembanyama early in the second quarter of Game 4 on Sunday. Naz Reid took the fateful elbow to the neck from a frustrated Wembanyama and finished with 15 points and nine rebounds to help the Timberwolves finish strong after some shaky stretches. Harper and Fox each scored 24 points and Stephon Castle added 20 as the Spurs guards unflinchingly took the baton from their 7-foot-4 superstar and turned the rest of the night into a mid-range clinic with an array of pull-up jumpers in and around the paint. After committing six turnovers in a 20-point third quarter, the Wolves found themselves in another eight-point hole early in the fourth following Fox's 3-pointer before delivering another clutch finish. “We have a resilient group of guys. No matter the circumstances, we are going to keep fighting and give everything we have and keep trusting one another,” Gobert said. “Just making the right play. That’s who we are. We might not be always consistent with that, but I feel like when it matters, we raise our level.”
San Antonio Spurs vs Timberwolves Game 4 Post Game Show | In The Building | Mike Taylor & Rudy Jay
IN THE BUILDING | Spurs vs. Timberwolves Game 4 POST-GAME REACTION | 2026 NBA Playoffs Western Conference Semifinals Mike Taylor and Rudy Jay are back LIVE with your full post-game breakdown from Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals. The Spurs came into tonight leading this series 2-1 with a chance to put Minnesota's back against the wall on their home floor — and the entire basketball world is watching. We have got the full reaction, the biggest plays, and everything you need to know heading into Game 5. --- WHERE THIS SERIES STANDS The Spurs have won two straight and all the momentum is on San Antonio's side. Victor Wembanyama delivered an absolute masterpiece in Game 3 — 39 points, 15 rebounds, and five blocks — as the Spurs took a 115-108 victory in Minneapolis to seize the series lead. He went 13-of-18 from the floor and 10-of-12 from the line while his presence in the paint was suffocating all night. Only Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had put up those numbers in a postseason game before Friday night — and Wembanyama got there faster than any of them, in just his seventh playoff game. We are watching something generational happen in real time. Stephon Castle quietly put together one of the most efficient games of his young playoff career in Game 3, finishing with 13 points, 12 assists, and a team-high plus-17 rating, while De'Aaron Fox added 17 points. On the other side, Jaden McDaniels and Julius Randle combined to shoot just 8-of-34 from the floor, unable to get anything going against Wembanyama's rim protection. Minnesota comes into tonight desperate. Anthony Edwards gave them everything he had in the loss — 32 points and 14 rebounds — and it still was not enough. Edwards hit a buzzer-beating 31-footer to end the first quarter, and the Wolves clawed back from missing their first 12 shots of the game to tie it at halftime, but San Antonio pulled away in the third quarter by going 6-of-10 from three. --- THE INJURY FACTOR Minnesota is playing shorthanded and they have been all series. Anthony Edwards has been battling a knee injury that sidelined him late in the Denver series, and his status has been a question mark heading into every game. The Wolves need him healthy and they need more from the players around him. Naz Reid has been their best secondary option, but it has not been nearly enough against this Spurs defense. --- ONE WIN FROM THE CONFERENCE FINALS This Spurs team has answered every challenge thrown at them. They dropped Game 1 at home and responded with a 38-point blowout. They went into Minneapolis for Games 3 and 4 and took control of the series. Since losing back-to-back games in January, the Spurs went 40-9 — the equivalent of a 69-win season — and that same resiliency has defined every moment of this postseason run. The Western Conference Finals are within reach. One more win and this young Spurs team makes history. --- SUBSCRIBE AND HIT THE BELL — We are going LIVE after EVERY San Antonio Spurs playoff game this postseason. Don't miss a single take, breakdown, or debate. Mike Taylor and Rudy Jay will be here every step of the way on the road to a championship.

Spotting the Real Problem with A's Bullpen Usage
The A’s came home from a brutal Philly-Baltimore road trip sitting two-and-a-half games up in the AL West, and Hobbs is officially sounding the alarm for the rest of baseball. This episode of Habit Hunter breaks down a gritty series win over the Orioles that showed something the A’s haven’t consistently had in years: real pitching stability. Hobbs dives deep into the numbers behind the rotation turnaround, the reduction in walks, and the biggest trend changing the season — starters finally keeping the team alive instead of detonating games by the third inning. Jacob Lopez continues flashing both promise and warning signs, Luis Severino battles through another frustrating outing, and Mitch Spence… well, “Mr. Foot Traffic” still exists in spirit through Mark Leiter Jr. chaos. At the plate, the stars are beginning to separate themselves from the pack. Shea Langeliers is turning into a full-blown superstar before everyone’s eyes, Nick Kurtz keeps stacking quality at-bats like a veteran ten years older, and Brent Rooker is slowly dragging himself out of the Mendoza Line graveyard one loud RBI at a time. Hobbs also unloads on the team’s horrifying strikeout totals, questionable bullpen usage, and the obsession with trying to squeeze “one more out” from exhausted pitchers. Add in ABS drama, Jacob Wilson’s scary injury, reverse-jinx wizardry from Booney, and a roll call that paints the picture of a first-place club learning how to win ugly, and this episode feels like the moment the A’s stopped being a cute story and started looking dangerous.
