On today's episode, Jason and Producer Rob G kick things off with a deep dive into the Golden State Warriors' Game 2 win over the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. The Warriors blew the game open in third quarter, and unlike in Game 1, never looked back as they cruised to victory. Even though you've lost home court advantage in the series, if you're a Warriors fan, you still have to be feeling pretty good  about yourselves as the series shifts back to Boston. Steph Curry has been the most consistently great player in the NBA Finals thus far, and he's even shown flashes of being a decent defender to boot. Golden State needs Steph to be the best player on the floor if they're going to win the championship, and he's been exactly that through two games. Later, the guys go long on Donovan Mitchell's future in Utah following a report that he's 'unsettled and unnerved' about the Jazz' long-term outlook. If Mitchell is that unhappy about his situation in Utah then he absolutely should force his way out of town, and the Miami Heat and New York Knicks seem like the two teams who make the most sense as potential landing spots. However, anybody who trades for him needs to do so knowing that he'll likely never be the best player on a championship team. There are only a handful of true 'No. 1' players in the NBA, and Mitchell ain't at that level.
