Knicks Historic Comeback; Trump Promises Iran Attacks if No Deal

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.
On today's podcast:
1) The New York Knicks came from 29 points down to beat the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, taking a 3-1 lead in the series. The Knicks' win was capped off by OG Anunoby's tip-in with 1.2 seconds remaining, which followed a long 3-point shot by Jalen Brunson that bounced off the front of the rim. The Spurs had led 81-52 in the third quarter, but the Knicks outscored them 58-30 in the second half to complete the record-breaking comeback.
2) President Trump said he will continue bombing Iran if it refuses to agree to an interim peace deal, following a second night of clashes between the countries’ forces. Iran retaliated by firing on US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain and Jordan, and said the Strait of Hormuz would be closed to all types of vessels. Trump ordered multiple strikes, including around 50 Tomahawk missiles, which Central Command described as “self-defense strikes,” in a signal that Trump wants to avoid restarting a full-on war.
3) US inflation accelerated in May to the fastest pace in more than three years as the Iran war pushed up energy prices, outstripping Americans’ pay gains. Still, President Trump sought to downplay the CPI data, calling the figures “great” and suggesting fuel costs would be even higher if not for US efforts to get oil shipments out of the Strait of Hormuz. “You know what I really love? I love the inflation,” Trump said Wednesday. That’s because once the war is over “it’s going to come down like a rock.”
