PMT Drafts Breen and Yandle For Finals Week

Pardon My Take loaded up its Finals-week episode with Mike Breen and Keith Yandle, and Big Cat and PFT used the airtime to ride with the Knicks and float leg…

Finals season is when PMT's guest book gets fun, and 6-1 is a stacked one. Mike Breen on the NBA side, 3x All-Star Keith Yandle on the hockey side, plus the usual run through Arsenal hate and Who's Back of the Week. If you were going to pick one episode to drop into during championship month, this is the lineup you'd build.

The full rundown for the new episode, Spurs-Knicks Finals talk included.

The headline take inside the pod: Big Cat is riding with New York. He said it plain on mic — he thinks the Knicks are taking the series. Whether that ages like wine or like milk, planting a flag on PMT in June is the kind of thing that gets clipped back at you for years, and Big Cat clearly does not care.

From there it got dumber, in the good way. PFT, asked what Chet Holmgren should do this offseason, suggested the leg-lengthening surgery bit — and then casually admitted he'd looked into it himself. Classic PMT offseason advice: skip the jumper work, just become taller. The full episode is on Netflix, which is still a wild sentence to type about a podcast that used to live in a basement.

Yandle handled the hockey half, previewing Vegas-Carolina through the most PMT lens possible: the crank-off. Not goals, not save percentage — who's going to be the most unhinged guy on the bench come puck drop. It's a recurring bit, not a stat, but with a 3x All-Star defenseman walking you through it, it plays.

Knicks pick, Cup Final preview, a Mike Breen 'BANG' for the road, and PFT openly Googling growth surgery. June PMT doing exactly what June PMT is supposed to do.
