The Mismatch
Don’t Overlook the Grizzlies, Who Gets the Blame for Phoenix, and Instant Reactions to Playoff Matchups
15 Apr 2025
Verno and Jacoby break down tonight’s play-in games, starting with the Hawks-Magic matchup (01:44) and the Grizzlies-Warriors matchup (07:14). They then discuss tomorrow’s play-in matchups before debating the best possible scenarios that could come out of the play-in (16:32). Next, they get into the news of David Griffin’s firing in New Orleans (30:15) and Mike Budenholzer’s firing in Phoenix (36:37). With Joe Dumars expected to take over Griffin's role with the Pelicans, what will they do with Zion Williamson? Does Kevin Durant deserve to take some blame for the Suns’ disastrous season? Finally, the guys briefly preview the playoff matchups that have already been set (45:50). Leave us a message on our Mismatch Voicemail line! (323) 389-5091 Walmart Express.
