Next, we preview the Eastern Conference Finals between the Knicks and Pacers. Is this the rebirth of a legendary rivalry? Who steps up when it matters most, Brunson or Haliburton? Over in the West, Thunder vs
Wolves might be the beginning of a new era. What’s on the line for Anthony Edwards and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander?
We also ask the big questions about the Nuggets future and discuss the Caitlin Clark vs Angel Reese controversy that has the WNBA world buzzing.

Celtics DOMINATE Knicks to Stay Alive!
Season 1 · Episode 130
Friday, May 16, 2025 • Duration 53:12
The Celtics aren't going down without a fight. After a dominant 127-102 win over the Knicks in Game 5, Jaylen Brown's message is clear: "Don’t count us out yet." But with Jayson Tatum sidelined, can Boston really force a Game 7? We break down the key differences in Game 5, standout performances, and whether this version of the Celtics can keep the momentum alive. Outside TD Garden, we asked Celtics fans for their one-word take on the team, graded Joe Mazzulla’s playoff performance, and put new ownership on the hot seat with the big question: run it back or blow it up?
Around the league, the Pacers and Timberwolves are moving on to the Conference Finals. Are fans sleeping on them? What’s next for the Cavs and Warriors after disappointing exits? And with the Thunder leading the Nuggets 3-2, is this the real championship series?
We also dive into NBA Draft Lottery chatter. Is it rigged? Could the Celtics make a surprise move into the lottery, or should they look ahead to the 2026 draft and AJ Dybantsa? Plus, how will Cooper Flagg fit in with the Mavericks?
All that and more in this week’s episode of Hold My Banner, hosted by Travis Thomas and Ountae Campbell.
