Summary

Rich recaps the big NBA weekend that saw Doc Rivers lose the 10th Game 7 of his coaching career as the 76ers got bounced from the playoffs by the Boston Celtics and says why does not understand new Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia firing the highly respected Monty Williams despite turning the franchise from laughingstock to NBA title contenders. ‘Pardon the Interruption’ co-host Michael Wilbon tells Rich his reaction to Joel Embiid, Doc Rivers and the Philadelphia 76ers’ latest playoff disappointment, why he’s not surprised the Phoenix Suns fired former NBA Coach of the Year Monty Williams, what the Golden State Warriors should do in the aftermath of getting bounced from the playoffs by the Lakers, why the Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic is the most obscure superstar in the NBA, and why the league should not be lenient with Ja Morant following the latest Instagram video showing him brandishing a gun. Rich breaks down Chris Brockman’s 180 on the Celtics who he pronounced D.O.A. last week after going down 3 games to 2 in their series against the Sixers. Learn more about your ad choices.
