Current NBA star, Anthony Edwards plays an antagonist, Kermit Wilts. Ben Foster, Robert Duvall and former NBA stars, Julius Erving and Kenny Smith also star. Directed by Jeremiah Zagar.

The 2022 NBA Draft took place at the Barclay's Center in Brooklyn, New York. Some well known college stars were on hand and some unknown commodities were in the green room, looking to make a name for themselves. The top three picks were supposedly set in stone, but ended up in a blender as the draft commenced. We give our take on who we thought were the top draft picks for this year. Not the whole draft, just who we liked. Of course we don't like the same guys but check it out for yourself.

We had a delay in recording our episode, so we combined game 5 back in San Francisco where the Warriors took control of the series, and Game 6 where the Dubs closed it out. Draymond Green was back to his old self, being aggressive and Andrew Wiggins continued to make a name for himself with double-doubles in the last two games. Wiggins got some consideration for the Finals MVP... NOT!! Not on Curry's watch. News: Christian Wood to the Dallas Mavericks, Kyrie Irving and the Brooklyn Nets are at an impasse.

The Golden State Warriors are down 2-1 to the Boston Celtics and have to be in desperation mode as to not go down 3-1. The Warriors will be in serious trouble if that happens. Steph Curry finished with 43 points (14/26 FGs  7/14 3FGs) and 10 rebounds, but was it enough? Draymond Green seems to be depending on his podcast to share his narrative but is still so-so on the court in Boston. Jayson Tatum had 23 points and Jaylen Brown 21 points and 6 rebounds, and the Celtics have had good fourth quarters. How did it end? You know we didn't agree on how it went down.

We recap Game 3 of the NBA Finals and Boston takes control of the series. Draymond Green is met with a vicious, raucous crowd at TD Garden in Boston. He looked out of sorts and didn't have the same aggressiveness we saw in Game 2. Draymond is a fellow podcaster and some say he was distracted by still religiously doing episodes on the road and responding to critics in real time. The Celtics responded in Game 3 with three players, ( Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart) with 20+ points, 5+ rebounds, and 5+ assists. They now have a 2-1 lead with Game 4 at home in Boston. We still don't agree on the next game, but what's new.
