What happened in Game 1 between the Thunder and Lakers?
This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

And nobody cares in the NBA if you injured your oblique over a month ago. Austin Reeves was three for 16 and awful last night. Nobody cares about the injury.
How do players feel about the flopping issue in the playoffs?
Ant was great coming off an extended knee. Hyper extended knee. Game one. Embiid, his appendix burst. He's been great. Cade Cunningham had a collapsed lung. Missed 11 games. Cade Cunningham. Nobody cares. He's great.
What strategies are teams using against Austin Reeves?
Austin Reeves last night was dreadful. 0 for 10 on uncontested shots. Nobody's done that in this league since Draymond Green three years ago. I understand his popularity. He's undrafted. The headband. He's scrappy. He gets a little bit better every year. Seems like a great kid. He was awful.
How does Austin Reeves fit into the Lakers' future plans?
And here's what happens. You see his limitations. So when a team picks on you, they're not doing it in the abstract. They have watched film on you. Last year, the T-wolves, Chris Finch and a great staff watched film on Austin Reeves and attacked him. He was bad. OKC watched film on Austin Reeves, saw him as a weakness and attacked him, put ball pressure, multiple, multiple turnovers. And you saw this with Derek White of the Celtics. Everybody's like, Derek White had a down year. No, when Derek White was a five or a four, the Celtics were a championship team.
What changes could the NBA make to address flopping?
This year, because the Tatum injury, and they moved off Porzingis and other players, there were nights he was a two. He was often the third.
