Summary

Verno and Jacoby break down the exciting pair of games from Monday night starting off with the unbelievable performance by Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers as they even up their series against the Nuggets (01:25). Next, Jacoby shares his experience watching the Pistons get their first playoff win since 2008 to even up their series against the Knicks from inside Madison Square Garden (18:37). Verno then begrudgingly discusses what it’ll take for the Grizzlies to take a win a game in their series against the Thunder after losing by 51 over the weekend (38:30). Also, they discuss the need for Dame to return to spice up the Bucks-Pacers series (48:05), what kind of response the Lakers will have after getting embarrassed by the Wolves (51:18), and why Ime Udoka should lean into the Rockets size against the Warriors (01:00:09).
