On today’s episode, Jason gets the party started by recapping the Los Angeles Lakers’ wild – and ugly – play-in win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. LeBron James and Anthony Davis were good-not-great but backup point guard Dennis Schroder was the difference in this one. That’s part of what makes this Lakers team so dangerous; You never know which of the ‘other guys’ will pop on a night-to-night basis. Later, Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) joins the show to discuss the reports that the Atlanta Hawks would consider trading superstar point guard Trae Young this offseason. Atlanta may have beaten the Miami Heat in their play-in game but it’s fair to say they’ve underwhelmed the past two seasons. How much of that is on Trae? How much of that is on the Hawks front office? Sticking in the NBA, the guys go at it for a few minutes debating which stars are most deserving of an All-NBA nod. Should Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid both make First Team given that they're both centers? Will the Dallas Mavericks missing the play-in keep Luka Doncic off the three teams altogether? Finally, J-Mac closes the show with his Best Bets for the Wednesday night NBA Play-In games featuring the New Orleans Pelicans, Oklahoma City Thunder, Chicago Bulls and Toronto Raptors
