Summary

On this edition of Road Trippin', the crew covers our remaining first round NBA Playoff matchups. Dillon Brooks continues to tay on brand, by talking some serious trash to an "old" LeBron James...but will King James take the bait and try to drop 40? Rich & Channing tell you how LeBron has dealt with this before, and how he'll likely respond as this series plays out. Continuing on the Lakers conversation, how can Anthony Davis get more buckets and put his team in a real position to advance? We also talk Cavaliers vs Knicks, where the series is set to head into Madison Square Garden over the weekend. Can the young Cavs respond on this big stage and learn to win inside a true pressure cooker? We also examine Channing's "playoff beard", make fun of some awful commercials and dish out some good parenting tips for watching playoff ball at your house!

All right, welcome into this edition of Road Trip with RJ and Channing. I'm your host,

0:11.0

Ali Clifton. What series didn't we talk about yesterday? Let's see. How about Memphis

0:18.1

Lakers? You've got Nix Caves. We got... Oh, Nix Caves. Nix Caves. Saltix Hawks. And you've got

0:24.1

made me a move. We're not talking about Saltix Hawks. All right, you want to go Nix Caves.

0:29.6

You want to go Nix Caves? Yeah. How is your one about this one? Love it. I love it. From the

0:35.7

standpoint of I love what the Nix did in game one. They were the physical. They were the

0:39.8

veteran team. Brunson had just come off a conference finals. He's playing against a point

0:44.4

guard in Darius Garland who's never been in the postseason and he did what he was supposed

0:48.2

to do. Cook this ass. Right? And you go and look at Julius Randall who's been in the

0:55.3

postseason. What did he do to Evan Mowbally and Jared Allen? Cook the ass. They were... And

1:01.7

when I say this is not that it wasn't competitive, it's just that you could see their experience

1:12.6

of that stuff and get out rebounded like 51 to 37 with that size that you got killed

1:18.3

on the glass. And so the best thing about game two is you've got to find out about the

1:24.2

Caves, not the Nix. Because the Nix we're going to do with the Nix are going to do. They're

1:28.4

going to be aggressive. They're going to be physical. They're going to hit the glass

1:31.2

because they're not great shooters. So they hit the glass. And the Caves, they ate that

1:37.1

shit. They were like, Oh, okay, we had shot and it goes up another level. So all of these

1:41.6

guys that had that, you know, tough game one. Imagine what like I saw Luke Walm last night.

1:47.4

And he was like, boy, the garden is going to be lit. It's like if you have it like a playoff

1:53.6

game in the garden, oh, it's going to be so much fun. And this Nix team is good. So I'm just

1:59.0

saying that the Caves answered the call in game two. They answered the call. And I think
