Defending Anthony Edwards, Spurs-Thunder must-see series, Steelers Sign Rodgers | 05.18

The Right Time with Bomani Jones

Bomani Jones reacts to a wild NBA playoff weekend, from James Harden somehow escaping slander despite a rough stat line to the Knicks, Cavaliers, and the fascinating Donovan Mitchell vs. Jalen Brunson subplot. Bo also breaks down why Karl-Anthony Towns may be quietly changing the Knicks’ ceiling, and why one bad game could flip the conversation all over again.

Then, Bomani turns to the matchup he’s been waiting for all year: Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs against Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the defending champion Thunder. Bo explains why Wemby’s defensive dominance already feels historic, why the MVP presentation could add even more juice to the series, and why OKC’s style of play gets under his skin.

Plus, Bomani discusses Aaron Rodgers signing with the Steelers, Waffle House workers rallying for better pay and safer working conditions, the fake-feeling internet age of stealth marketing campaigns, and listener voicemails.
