Adam Miller is joined by Ryan Klinker to make their Final 4 and national championship picks for the 2026 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.

AM Basketball Breakdown — 2026 NBA Season Quarter 3 Check-In

Adam Miller and Seth Zimmerman check in on the NBA season as the playoff race starts to take shape. They break down the league’s biggest storylines — including a shocking 83-point performance, the latest burner-account drama surrounding Kevin Durant, and the controversial trade moves by the Philadelphia 76ers. They also discuss whether the Oklahoma City Thunder are still clearly the team to beat despite their dominant record.

They also dive into one of the most impressive rookie classes in recent memory, led by Cooper Flagg and sharpshooter Kon Knueppel, and explore some of the league’s trickiest off-court scenarios — including tanking strategies and how teams can “lose without looking like losers.”

Adam is joined by Ryan Klinker for a wide-ranging, personal conversation about what Indiana basketball really means—starting with their own stories of becoming IU fans. From there, they walk through every major era in modern IU history, asking the hard question: why has banner number six been so elusive?

They break down the Mike Davis era and whether inheriting Bob Knight’s roster helped or hurt, revisit the short-lived Kelvin Sampson years and how different that scandal looks in today’s college basketball landscape, and examine how Tom Crean rebuilt the program after sanctions but still struggled to meet rising expectations. The conversation continues through the Archie Miller and Mike Woodson eras—was IU stabilizing, or actually moving forward?

Finally, Adam and Ryan look ahead to the Darian DeVries era, analyzing early signs of an efficient, modern offense and what makes this team different. They close with the big-picture questions: Can the Indiana Hoosiers still be considered a blue blood alongside the UCLA Bruins, Kansas Jayhawks, North Carolina Tar Heels, Duke Blue Devils, and Kentucky Wildcats? And finally: Why do you think IU basketball still matters nationally—even without recent success?
