On today's episode, Jason and producer Rob (a diehard Lakers fan) discuss what went wrong for the top-seeded Purple and Gold during their stunning game 1 loss to Damian Lillard and the eighth-seeded Portland Trailblazers. Specifically, Anthony Davis decided to play like a backup shooting guard rather than the All-NBA big man we all know him to be, the Lakers starting backcourt gave them next to nothing, and LeBron James and AD came up small in crunch time. In the Eastern Conference, Giannis Antetokounmpo led but his Milwaukee Bucks teammates refused to follow as his team also dropped game 1 to an eight seed. Either way, Jason isn't one to overreact to one game, and he explains why he still expects the Lakers and the Bucks to win their respective series. Jason also does a deep dive into the falling NBA television ratings, and explains the real reason why the League's TV numbers are their lowest since 2012. Plus, Jason aims to get back into the win column with his Best Bet for Wednesday's night NBA action.
