Tyrese Maxey saves the Sixers season with an all time Game 5 performance at MSG. We talk NBA and NHL playoff action from Tuesday night plus the Lakers got bounced and somehow people still think they were so close to beating the Nuggets in a series (-). Shams is eviscerating coach's moments after games and we have our first bee delay of the year in MLB (-). Hot Seat/Cool Throne including NFL scouting and the biggest loser gambler of all time (-). JJ Redick joins the show to talk NBA playoffs, how good Ant is, what do the Suns and Lakers do, is this the death of the superteam and his son going to basketball camp at Duke (-). We finish with listener submitted FAQ's (-).
Recap
HankThe Boston Bruins will win their series against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Just gotta win in Toronto. Now it's a tough, it's tough to win in the playoffs. You know, the leaves are a good team. They, they battled through adversity tonight. And, and we gotta come back stronger. Put Swayman in the net and, and we're gonna win.
Big CatThe Lakers were never winning a title because their roster was the problem, not coaching.
I still think that the roster is the problem that they just don't have enough guys. And the Nuggets were a better basketball team no matter how many minutes the Lakers led. Execution and being able to win games late is what makes the team better... They were a good team. They were never a great team.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterMike Tyson could be 90 years old and still knock someone out.
I'm pumped up. 'cause I think everybody that is, most people that are paying attention to this would just like to see another Mike Tyson knockout. Yes. Just bring us back to the glory days. Yes. And he could be 90 years old and I would still believe that he'd be able to knock somebody out.
PFT CommenterTaylor Swift should give up half her money to men to help the Chiefs win championships.
Basically what we're saying is that Taylor Swift should give up half of her money to men. Is that too much to ask? No, I thought we were about equality. Equality matters 50%. And if she, if she was a true Chiefs fan, she would be like, 'Hey Travis, take the league minimum and let's go win another championship.' Rings... it sounds like she's only about her personal engagement ring, not a Super Bowl ring.
Interview
JJ RedickThe Minnesota Timberwolves match up better against the Denver Nuggets than anyone else in the NBA.
I think this Minnesota team probably matches up as well as anyone in the NBA versus the Denver Nuggets. I'm really fascinated by this series.
JJ RedickThe current NBA landscape marks the beginning of the death of the 'Super Team'.
I said at the beginning of the year... this year could be the beginning of the death of the super team. Part of that is the new second apron in the CBA... you have to build through the draft. And then be positioned... to then make an impactful trade.
JJ RedickNikola Jokic is already a top 15 player of all time.
Nikola Jokic to me is already a top 15 player of all time. And I know that that's maybe a hot take. I don't really care.
JJ RedickThe Phoenix Suns' issues are about team building and personalities meshing, not just one specific player or coach.
I would look at sort of team building in a very holistic way beyond just, oh, we gotta trade this guy... You have to look at any roster, any team, and look at how personalities mesh together and how skill sets mesh together... and you have to be willing, I think to, as an owner, you have to be willing to be patient with that.
