On this episode we breakdown the games that have been played to this point in round 1 of the NBA and NHL playoffs. 76ers have swept the Nets and Tobias Harris was a big part of how they did that. Lakers go up 3-1 and the Heat also go up 3-1 on a historic night from Jimmy Butler. Many teams have had injuries hit them at the wrong time from Milwaukee with Giannis, Clippers with Kawhi, and now the Kings with De'Aaron Fox. Load management is clearly not working as Mikal Bridges doesn't miss time but plays every game while other stars are missing meaningful games late into the season.
No series have been won to this point in the NHL playoffs but a lot of teams are on the brink. There have been plenty of close games in the first round and overtime games. The Devils made a GK change and that has gotten them right back in the series with the Rangers. Oilers and Kings are having a fantastic series and the Maple Leafs and Lightning are not disappointing.
