First, Jordan, Stacey, and James talk about the future of the Detroit Pistons, and possibilities of what will happen in this year’s NBA Draft and free agency.
Following the Pistons talk, Ben hops on and gives us his hot takes of the week!
The guys then discuss the NBA Finals as the Toronto Raptors hold a 3-1 series lead against the Golden State Warriors. How have the Raptors earned this lead? Can they finish off Golden State and end the Warriors dynasty? Will Kevin Durant return for Game 5 in Toronto? How will that affect the series? Would winning a championship change the equation and could Kawhi Leonard stay in Toronto? We examine all that and more.
In the theme of the NBA Finals, Ben then gives us his Player of the Week – it should be no surprise!
To end the episode, the guys have some fun and make their own All-NBA Bust Team!
