Description
Over the weekend, Sal’s son’s team lost in the Little League semi-finals, but he still may go to the finals anyway. Phil Mickelson won the PGA Championship, which brings up the question- is this the year of the old guy (01:45)? Dave goes to the Aquarium and misses the Penguins game to see actual penguins, the guys don’t understand how he could do this (05:30). Then Sal and Dave discuss all the upsets in the Western Conference round 1, game 1, playoff games and who could be in the most trouble. Sal likes the play-in round but thought it took a toll on both the Warriors and Lakers in their next games. Then they discuss the Eastern Conference and the Knicks return to the playoffs and Trae Young silencing the crowd. Dave still likes the Nets and Lakers to meet in the NBA Finals (15:45). Then they go back to discussing the NHL Playoffs and the difference between the regular season; Dave doesn’t think it’s good for the game if star driven teams don’t advance (29:30). Sal and Dave give out their Crown Royal: Crown on the Court Winners from the weekend (40:30). Then Jalen Rose joins the show to discuss sports debate television and how it’s evolved and changed the landscape since he first started. Jalen talks about silencing a crowd on the road, why the play-in tournament is great for the NBA as well as a new mid-season tournament (41:15). Jalen talks about his recent interview with Chris Webber, what it meant to him and how it may lead to a bigger conversation, plus could the Fab Five been a NBA playoff team and how Bill Simmons influenced his career and the podcast game (57:45).
