Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine are back with this week’s big number: 1 million dollars. That’s how much Jay-Z allegedly wagered and then lost, when he placed a milly on OKC to win the Finals in 5 games. Indy won Game 3, which rendered that bet moot — and Indy added another victim to its pool of people that doubted them. Don’t miss the guys break down the stats that prove Indy may very well be the better team, both offensively and defensively. Plus later in the show, Tom wonders if Kevin Durant could return to Oklahoma City — especially if the Thunder get packed up in 5 games!
