Will the NBA come to an end tonight in Denver? Howard Beck, Locked On playoff and off-season expert, is in Denver to see what might be the clinching night for Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets. How do we look at this Nuggets run? Is this a sign that the NBA has made a shift? If the Nuggets win tonight they will be 16-4 and the run will be dominant but it won't have been against dominant teams or with a cadre of dominant players. David Locke hosts the show and he and Howard look at all these questions plus where is the NBA heading and will super teams still be a part of it? Is there any validity to LeBron James in Dallas with Luka Doncic? Ja Morant and Zion Williamson have caught themselves in the middle of social media firestorms with their actions. These are the pitfalls of the modern era for athletes and make what LeBron James has done to stay out of this mess all the more remarkable. Lastly, how will the collective bargaining agreement impact the off-season? Will it have a chilling effect? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
