Summary

In this episode, I'm solo and jumping into a few different things. We're going to start with the Trae Young dominance and Boston breakdown in the fourth quarter, where Trae dropped 38 points and 13 assists on his way to beating Boston on the road 119-117 to force Game 6 back in Atlanta with Dejounte Murray back. Some tape there on how Trae attacked Boston in the fourth. Then, we'll do a quick deep dive into Jimmy Butler's 56-point masterclass against Milwaukee. I dive into the tape, explain why Jimmy is essentially built to beat the Milwaukee defensive structure with his game. Next, we dive into the two Western Conference games, where the Denver Nuggets moved on against Minnesota Timberwolves, and Phoenix Suns moved on against the Clippers to set up a potentially awesome playoff series.
