We roll into this week’s show with LeBron flinching on a woman in the front row of the Nuggets-Lakers Game 5, and how Rob felt about the Lakers performance as they were eliminated in the first round. Rob thinks Denver is vulnerable as they prepare to take on the high-powered Timberwolves, and while Rob picks Minnesota to win and advance, B-Dog thinks Denver will show the championship pedigree and find a way to win. Plus we debate about whether LeBron played his final game as a Laker – and while Rob says no, he does think the Lakers move on from Darvin Ham. The wild Suns payroll has our heads spinning as rumors circulate about them moving on from Frank Vogel, and we all discuss how Kyrie and Harden have both been exceptional in the Clippers-Mavericks series. We also get into Joel Embiid’s dirty play against the Knicks, and from there a debate about whether Embiid is a dirty player across his career. And we dive head first into the NFL Draft with a debate about whether the Falcons were wise or stupid to draft Michael Penix Jr after signing Kirk Cousins in the offseason – and amazing Draft audio from Xavier Leggette and Keon Coleman who both set the Internet on fire this week. We close out with Reggie getting his Heisman back, audio of the week from Charles Barkley as he took on the city of Galveston Texas, a Big Shot of the Week to a couple of barbers who saved a young girl’s life, and an eye-opening NBA game called Salary Cap.
