Colin recognizes the Boston Celtics--down two key players--simply ran out of gas after a stellar first half against the Miami Heat in the first tilt of the Eastern Conference Finals. Also, Colin fully supports the newly agreed-upon equal split of bonuses between the US Women's National Soccer Team and the US Men's National Soccer Team.

FS1's Nick Wright, co-host of "First Things First," drops by to sound off on the NBA Playoffs--including his love of the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals.
