On today's show we're joined by one of the best basketball players of the last generation, former All-Star and current NBA on TNT analyst Chris Webber. C-Web has seen his broadcast career take off since joining Turner and he's currently working alongside Ian Eagle calling the Pacers-Wizards Eastern Conference semifinal. In this podcast, we chat with Chris about his broadcast career, his desire to get into coaching, and how the playoffs have shaken out so far. Topics include...

-How being close to the game as a broadcaster helps to prepare for an eventual coaching career and his desire to follow the paths of Mark Jackson and Steve Kerr.
-What it's like to work with EJ, Kenny, and Charles at Inside the NBA and why it's even funnier behind the scenes.
-Why this year's first round was the best ever.
-The struggle in Indiana and what's really going on with the Pacers. It's not all Roy Hibbert's fault that the Pacers are reeling.
-Walking the line in being able to be critical of players having been there before and having conversations with current players about some of his analysis.
-Why the Wizards have a core group that could eventually be Finals contenders.
-How many teams left have a legit shot at a championship.
-HIs reaction to the Donald Sterling controversy and why he hopes it motivates the NFL to change the Washington Redskins nickname.
