Summary
In both conferences the #1 seeds went from up 2-0 in their respective 2nd round series to tied at 2-2 heading back home. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss some of the things that stood out them over the weekend, including how much the "make or miss league" saying held true for both series, whether the Heat are in trouble now that Joel Embiid is back and Kyle Lowry is struggling after his return from his hamstring injury, and if Luka and the Mavs have cracked the code vs. the Suns or if Phoenix will get back on track now that they'll be back at home for game 5.

| 0:33.9 | A lot of mirror images around the playoffs. Both number one seeds saw their leads |
| 0:40.3 | in their series go from two zero to tied it two with Dallas tying things up with Phoenix and |
| 0:46.3 | then Philadelphia tying things up with Miami. And then the three seeds, both former champions |
| 0:51.4 | in Milwaukee and Golden State, went up two to one on good but younger and perhaps |
| 0:56.7 | inexperienced teams. Guys, one of the themes I saw this weekend was that whole idea that this is a |

| 1:07.1 | so many possessions where Phoenix made the exact right rotation and closed out and |
| 1:11.9 | did everything correctly and then someone just stuck a shot, just a three in someone's face |
| 1:17.6 | that was like good defense, better shot. Then on the other end, you had a few games or a few players, |
