On this episode of the Kevin O'Connor Show, Tom Haberstroh joins Kevin to discuss the thrilling game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunder, as well as the latest trade rumors as the deadline approaches. Both Kevin and Tom agree that after the Cavaliers' impressive win on Wednesday night, they have solidified themselves as serious contenders for the NBA title. Kevin highlights the depth of the Cavs' roster, pointing out the contributions of players like Ty Jerome and Dean Wade. While the matchup between the Cavs and Thunder may not be the most anticipated in terms of TV ratings, both Kevin and Tom are excited at the prospect of seeing these teams face off again in June. Fans will have another chance to witness this showdown next week, although it's unfortunate that Chet Holmgren won't be able to participate due to injury.

The guys broke down the chances of the New Orleans Pelicans actually moving Zion Williamson now that he's back in the lineup and looking great. Tom's idea: why shouldn't the Spurs take a swing for Zion? Pairing Williamson and Wemby might be the modern day equivalent of Shaq-Kobe when it comes to unstoppable duos. The trade chatter didn't stop there: each of the guys give their take on where Bradley Beal and Jimmy Butler could wind up, too. While Golden State Warriors fans wish Steph Curry would get some help, the guys explain why GSW may stand pat. And speaking of "Pat," Riley and the Miami Heat might be better off tanking for Cooper Flagg at this point. Fresh off Tom attending Duke's last game, Tom and Kevin discuss the ultra-talented 18-year-old.
