Episode Synopsis

So many people are not watching the Pacers battle the Thunder in NBA Finals, according to ratings... but should we? Yes, says a Midwestern Div. II head coach, Chris Johnson, who leads the University of Sioux Falls men and is a die-hard Minnesota Timberwolves fan. Why does he think the "watchability" factor is high, and what should be the first couple roster moves the Wolves should make to increase their chances of reaching the Finals next year? Johnson also gives us his perspective on Jake Sittig, the former West Central boys basketball coach who was fired after a historic 21-4 season and exhaustive hearing process with the district's school board. Sittig played for Johnson at USF. Finally, two lightning rod topics — the new college basketball replay/challenge rule and how a few parents always seem to ruin the experience of youth sports for their kids.
