Summary

The Nuggets took Game 1 in Oklahoma City thanks to a late-game 3 from Aaron Gordon, but the big topic of discussion was whether the Thunder should have fouled when they were up three late in the game and Jokic was off the floor. Logan, Raja, and Howard Beck discuss that and whether they saw who the real MVP is during the game. The Knicks defeated the Celtics on the road thanks to 45 (!) missed 3s from Boston and some late-game heroics provided by the NBA Clutch Player of the Year, Jalen Brunson. Plus, what are they hoping to see from the Warriors-Wolves series? Is Ant primed to eliminate another legend? Finally, the mailbag!
