Summary

Andrew Schlecht and special co-host Will Guillory are joined by Mark Schindler to discuss topics from around the NBA and if they sink or float:

  1. Giannis is the best player left in the Playoffs
  2. The Grizzlies are lucky to be tied 1-1
  3. Miami is the most underrated team left in the Playoffs
  4. Phoenix is the heavy favorite to win it all
  5. This is the last time we will see this version of the Mavs (Luka, Dinwiddie, Brunson)
  6. The Suns targeting Luka exposes his lack of elite conditioning 
  7. We are entering a new chapter of James Harden’s career
  8. Philly won’t get a game against Miami
  9. The Celtics figured something out with Grant Williams and Horford on Giannis


Then the guys are joined by Keith Parish to discuss the Memphis Grizzlies and their series with the Golden State Warriors.
