On today’s episode, Jason and Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) get the party stared by sharing their thoughts on the Philadelphia 76ers’ shocking blowout road victory over the Boston Celtics. After years of slander from our fearless leader, Joel Embiid and James Harden have their team one win away from an Eastern Conference Finals berth. The only question at this point is whether or not Doc Rivers is the man to lead them over the hump. On the flip side, the Jekyll-and-Hyde Celtics continue to confound us with their ability to look like the best team in basketball one night and also-ran the next. How much of that falls on the shoulders of rookie head coach Joe Mazzulla? Shifting over to the Western Conference, all eyes are on Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets after they bludgeoned Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns to take a 3-2 series lead. Jokic is putting up historically great playoff numbers and the Nuggets look like the best team in the Western Conference. Finally, the guys close the show by making their Best Bets for Wednesday night’s NBA Playoffs action featuring the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors.
