Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones Jr. are joined by Seth Partnow -- former Director of Basketball Research for the Milwaukee Bucks, and author of "The Midrange Theory" -- to discuss the Thunder's Game 5 win and 3-2 series lead over the Pacers, the Desmond Bane trade, and give some background on Sports Business Classroom.

Then, Steve and Nekias give their early thoughts on this year's WNBA All-Star starters -- and who else should be in the mix.
