On today’s episode, Jason discusses the opening weekend of the NBA Playoffs, namely how the teams who seemingly had the 'most to prove' all showed up in a big way (Los Angeles Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Cleveland Cavaliers and Milwaukee Bucks), if an early exit could force the Dallas Mavericks to break up the Kyrie Irving-Luka Doncic backcourt, whether or not we can expect the Los Angeles Lakers can turn their matchup with the Denver Nuggets into a competitive series, why Joel Embiid seems to put together more postseason clunkers than a player of his caliber should and how a deep postseason run could help turn Anthony Edwards into the Face of the NBA moving forward.
