Welcome to the Render NBA show. I'm Chris Vernon joining me as he does every week is Kevin

O'Connor from the Render.com. Kevin! What up, Chris? Well, we're a day early this week. Bill

Simmons is going to be doing a podcast with a reaction to tonight's game 7 between the

Celtics and the Wizards. So keep a lookout for that tomorrow. But we do have that game 7 that's

going on tonight. I was glad that given the way the weekend plays out, we obviously had two really,

really good games, the Friday night game and then the Sunday afternoon game. Let's start with Friday

night and how we got to this game seven with, I mean, obviously the lasting impression is John

Wall hitting that shot, jumping up on the scores table after forcing a game seven. But your biggest

takeaway from game six, which was the Wizards win that's causing tonight's game seven.

Chris, it's really just the fact that John Wall has just elevated his game to the next level.

That's a shot you can't sleep on him anymore. Before he used to be able to, you know,

hope and pray John Wall would settle for jump shots. But now, now, you know, he can hit big ones.

He still shoots that, you know, pull up jumper at a rate of like, you know, 28, 29 percent on

the season, but it's held a lot better than he was before and enough. It's on a great much

higher volume. I think the Selix could probably live with that shot that he took, but you can't

sleep on him. He's a big baller, man. John Wall, it just took the win right out of the hands of

the Celtics. Doesn't it feel like he went to a totally different level because of that? Like,

this is what we look for the same way we, we gave James Hardin this massive to merit because

the games didn't play out all that different. Wall was not good in the first half much like Hardin,

but then in the second half, he came out guns blazing and you could see in that post game

interview, it was interesting because they asked him about coming out in the second half and he

basically said, I wasn't going out like that. Like, I'd rather go over a hundred than then,
