Show notes

Joe reacts to Pat Riley’s end-of-season press conference for the Miami Heat, as Riley makes it clear the organization is focused on building around Bam Adebayo while shutting down any talk of retirement. He also challenges Erik Spoelstra to fully commit to—or move on from—the Bam Adebayo and Kel’el Ware pairing, and weighs in on the NBA’s load management era. Joe and Hollywood debate whether Bam can truly be the centerpiece of a championship team, with Joe firmly against the idea of moving on from him. Plus, the guys take a look at some of the most compelling matchups unfolding in the NBA playoffs.
