On today's episode, Jason gets the party started by sharing his thoughts on the Chicago Bulls play-in victory over the Toronto Raptors. J-Mac has always been a big fan of Zach LaVine's game so to see him dominate on that stage was truly gratifying. Vindication for the LaVine Fan Club! In the Western Conference play-in, Oklahoma City guard Josh Giddey had his coming out party in the Thunder's win over the New Orleans Pelicans. We already knew Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was a stud, but if Giddey can continue on this upward trajectory, OKC's 'backcourt of the future' could be downright dangerous way sooner than expected. Later, 247Sports journalist Cameron Salerno swings by to preview the Western Conference Playoffs showdown between the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors and discuss why he expects Game 1 in Sacramento to be one of the rowdiest playoff environments the Warriors have ever played in, how the Domantas Sabnonis-Tyrese Haliburton trade reshaped the Kings, the evolution of De'Aaron Fox, how the Kings plans to slow down Steph Curry and much more!
