They're not like traditional old banks that charge you overdraft and monthly fees.
This is fee-free banking built for you. And me, not the 1%.
You may say there's got to be fees. Look, overdraft is not an unlimited amount of money. You can't just take out every dollar you want. I would never lie to you, but overdraft can be free free. Chime is full of benefits like that. Listen to these. Get 5% cash back on Chime card in a category of choice like gas or groceries. You get savings that grows faster with a 3.75% APY. 3.75?
Seriously, I had to double check that. 3.75% is nine times higher than the national average.

Chapter 2: What impact did Josh Hart have on the Knicks' playoff performance?
You know, the Strews didn't have a hot game. Oh, my God. I mean, the Cavs stars had moments. Like, Mobley and Allen, I thought from the jump, were pretty engaged. Allen was good on the offensive glass. Mobley hit a couple threes, hit a couple inside. He had a nice balance going, but then he did disappear. He took six shots in the first quarter and eight for the game. That's crazy.
The Cavs need to involve their bigs more. The backcourt is not going to be an advantage here with the length that they can put on Harden and on Mitchell. There's also the question mark of, is Mitchell injured? If you have a bad game in the playoffs, they're going to say you're injured. I don't know. He does not seem to be moving like Donovan Mitchell.
He doesn't seem like the same guy, but he's still scoring 27 a game on decent efficiency. So I don't put it on him, but... They got to find out a way to keep Mobley involved. Like, let him bring the ball up. I thought that was a huge thing for them in the Detroit series. Him relieving some pressure from Harden and Mitchell. They would go into inverted screens for him and let him create as well.
They could try some big, big screens. Like, he should have a size advantage at the very least over whoever's trying to stick him. They just need to establish... Allen and Mobley inside. They did, I thought, in the first quarter and then just completely went away from it. It feels like as things go poorly for the Cavs, they just want to chuck a three. And last night they were not hitting threes.
Yeah, I think there was a reason why they went to the short roll for Evan Mobley to end the second quarter and to start the third quarter. There's a reason. We're going to get our big guys involved. And it worked for those two plays. But they didn't get them a lot.
And the Knicks, I think, did a pretty good job of like getting into Mobley on these roles and not giving him a ton of space to catch and create because there was a lot more traffic in the lane in the second half. And then as for the Cleveland supporting cast, I mean, you know, we're talking about the stars for Cleveland that sort of came up short, but nobody last night was contributing.
Merrill, we went over him, Schroeder, Struess, Jalen Tyson, Dean Wade. I think combined they shot six of 27. So no like spark from a guy off the bench to like maybe get you back in the game or give some life to the team. This is sort of across the board. Everybody's struggling there in Madison Square Garden. Yeah, every single guy off the bench.
I mean, Jalen Tyson's kind of like the Josh Hart of their team where his shot just ain't on right now. I mean, he's shot well in the regular season, but it is totally off. And so they're deciding. He didn't play in game one. And Mike Brown, or excuse me, Kenny Atkinson decided, okay, all right, we'll give him a shot because our other guys aren't hitting a shot.
So there's a problem there, obviously. The Donovan Mitchell, is he physically hurt? Yeah, he ain't 100%. You can see he's got a hitch in his walk a bit. You can see it. There's no doubt. He's got a hitch. Cat's the waddler on the other side because he just waddles at all times. But he can still play. Mitchell can still fight through it, and he is fighting through it.

Chapter 3: What are the challenges facing Donovan Mitchell in the playoffs?
Of course. It's not even a role, is it? You're going Bateman, though. That's fine. He, at least the shot I saw on the broadcast, Bateman went like, he went Nick's towel, I think. Okay. So he had something in his hands. I think it was a towel. And Sudeikis, a little more cool, played it cool. But he had the cool WNBA hoodie on, too.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think he was with his daughter, too, on his left. They kind of cut her out to show the Bateman.
Chapter 4: What strategies can the Cavs implement to improve their game?
The Jasons. The double Jasons. I mean, I'll go through the stars they had last night. Let's go. Timothy Chalamet, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock, Jon Bon Jovi, Dustin Hoffman, Michael Strahan, the two Jasons, John McEnroe, Igor Shosturkin, Rangers player, CeCe Sabathia, Rick Pitino, Michael J. Fox, Jon Stewart, Mariska Haggerty, Ben Stiller, Alex Rodriguez.
Damn.
And that's without the players. Marbury, Ewing, Stark, Sprewell, Schumper, Wilson, Chandler, two Thomases, Tim and Kurt, Gerald Wilkins, Larry Johnson, Bernard King, Walt Frazier, Nate Robinson, and Bill Bradley. Nate Robinson gave a good handshake to the players when it was all done. Oh, very nice. Some buddies with Kat, I guess. How'd you feel about fans, well, fans chanting Nixon 4?
There wasn't a lot of gusto behind it. It was not a large contingent of people chanting Knicks in four, but there were some Knicks fans.
Yeah, I mean, they should feel confident in their team right now. Could they sweep?
Certainly. Oh, absolutely. But I do think the Cavs will get one. This could be a gentleman. Yeah. Yeah. Gentleman sweep. Very gentlemanly. Hopefully we have a series after Saturday. I mean, it'd be fun if the Cavs obviously get that one because then things just get a little more interesting for a game forward. It's like, ooh, could be tied. Ooh. Yeah. 3-1.
And hopefully Dono is saving those legs for game three because he's not done. He's not done. It's all up to him, to me. I mean, yeah, the shots matter, but if you're riding that guy's back, then the shots start to fall. All right, let's take it. I got a few. Oh, you got more? Jesus. I got a lot more. I got, like, Richard Jefferson randomly breaking down the NHL playoffs.
Like, they just read a promo for Knights versus Avalanche. He's like, oh, yeah, Avalanche lost their first game at home, but they're going to be all right. I know they're missing McCarr, and Breen's mind was blown. He's like, what? He's like, this is what we do, Mike. I thought that was great. But I think he's underplaying the absence of McCarr a little bit.
That guy's an absolute star, as we all know. I also like Mike Breen talking about the premature bang that he gave to Sam Merrill. He said, I knew it wasn't going in. Taking the piss. I like that. And then Josh Hart showed up with a full pizza at the press conference with him and Carl Anthony Towns.

Chapter 5: How has Mikal Bridges performed during the playoff series?
He's like, that's pretty funny, but you must be an interesting guy. Yeah, no doubt. I actually wrote a song for Reign for his birthday. Don't go. Go on. Chocolate rain. In Portland, he's going to have some. All right. Josh Hart gets wobbly. Scored a playoff career high 26 points in Game 2 of the East Finals.
I think Schumann said it was the highest usage rate Josh Hart has had in any game in his career. It was like over 31% in Game 2. That's pretty nuts. He shot 10 of 21 from the field, 5 of 11 from deep, 4 boards, 7 assists, 2 steals. In 33 minutes, the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be. Part of the Hart Foundation, Josh Hart. You think he was trained up by Stu?
Oh yeah, in the dungeon. Up in Calgary. You try and convince me Josh Hart wasn't born in Calgary. Where was Josh Hart born? I don't know. I have no idea. So he played at Villanova. Yeah. He seems like a Northeastern guy to me. He does to me as well, but... He loves Mike's and Ike's. He loves Mike's and Ike's. He was born in Silver Spring, Maryland. Okay. So... East Coaster.
Went to high school in Washington in D.C. Okay. East Coaster, you called it. Went to college at Villanova. Somebody in the front row... I think I actually saw it when we saw that Donovan Mitchell clip where I was really screwed up on gummies. Um... Split jersey. Knicks and Villanova. Did you see that? I didn't see that, but it was like a split jersey. Or a split hat in Method Man's case.
Very, very cool. I wonder what was on the sides of his hat, too, because he's just sitting straight forward. There's some monster things on that side of the hat. Need to know. He didn't perform with the hat on. That's a good question. It looks like he's got the hat on. I would have thought his head would have turned for you to see if there was anything on the side. He's got a Knicks hat on here.
Interesting.
Maybe switch it up.
It could be a different hat. It could be a performance hat.
Change the hat.

Chapter 6: What were the key moments from Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals?
If it's no Harper, no Fox, I would take the Thunder. Yeah, but maybe one. Okay, let's say one of them plays first.
Okay.
It's 11.02, 11 o'clock. Injury report just dropped. It's the same as 10.45. Yeah, they wait. They wait as long as they possibly can. All right, we'll see. We might, again, like I said, have a little mini podcast on the weekend if it lives up to the hype there, Game 3. At the very least, we'll be back on Monday here from the Classic Factory to break down all the NBA weekend playoff games.
And we'll have, by then, all NBA teams that are announced on Sunday. So we'll talk about that on Monday's podcast. Thanks for joining us. Until then, Clipper Bros.
