Summary

Logan Murdock, Raja Bell, and Howard Beck are back with another edition of Real Ones. They discuss the epic Game 1 of the Western Conference finals, where Victor Wembanyama made history by being the youngest player ever to score 41 points and grab 24 boards in the playoffs. What can the Thunder do to keep Wemby from having another historic performance in Game 2? How did the Spurs manage to frustrate back-to-back MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander? Even though they got blown out in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semis, did the Pistons actually exceed expectations this season? Plus, the mailbag!
