The NBA All-Star break is over… and now the real season begins.

With the Super Bowl behind us, it’s officially basketball season — and the league is CHAOS heading into the second half.

The Detroit Pistons have the best winning percentage in the NBA. Cade Cunningham is playing like a superstar. The Thunder still look like a juggernaut. And somehow the Cleveland Cavaliers might be the most dangerous team in the East.

In this episode of Big Game Energy, we break down:

– The Pistons’ shocking rise and Cade Cunningham’s MVP case
– Why the Thunder still control the West
– Can Jokic and the Nuggets or Wemby’s Spurs stop OKC?
– Rockets vs Lakers playoff matchup 👀
– Are the Cavs built to beat the Celtics?
– Why the East might be wide open

Is OKC repeating? Are the Cavs legit? Is Cade getting disrespected in the MVP race?
