Summary

Rich tips off the hour recapping night one of the NBA’s Play-In Tournament that included a 50-point night from the Celtics’ Jayson Tatum and another disappointing postseason showing from Russell Westbrook.   Rich recaps the eventful night in Major League Baseball that saw the Angels’ Shohei Ohtani demonstrate his amazing two-way skill set, but also the Mariners getting no-hit for the second time in two weeks (congrats to the Tigers’ Spencer Turnbull) that illustrates a growing problem with the Grand Old Game.   Former NBA head coach and current ESPN NBA Analyst Jeff Van Gundy and Rich recap the first night of the NBA’s play-in tournament and why coaches, fans and teammates have to learn to live with Russell Westbrook’s high-risk high-reward style of play, is the Warriors’ Steph Curry should win this season’s MVP Award, which teams the Suns and Clippers would prefer to face in their first round matchups, and his favorite Kobe Bryant story that illustrates the late Lakers star’s unstoppable drive and competitiveness.    The guys wrap up the hour revealing the winners of the Inaugural Rich Eisen Show NBA Awards as voted on by Rich, TJ, Brockman, and Adam the Call Screener. Mike Del Tufo DID NOT get to vote. And make sure you check out Rich's other podcast: Just Getting Started with Rich Eisen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
