Recording in-person from Downtown Milwaukee, Kris and Marques Johnson break down Ryan Rollins' incredible season, his 36-point game in Portland, why he should be Most Improved Player, and whether lottery picks should qualify for the award.
The guys also discuss Giannis Antetokounmpo’s return from injury, the balance between competing and long-term health, the origin of the M.I.P. award, and Marques’ experience playing through injury. Plus, the Johnson family broadcast takeover vs. the Clippers, why Giannis is built different, and a hilarious Mitch Richmond story.
Then, rising play-by-play voice Michael Grady joins to discuss his Indiana roots, broadcasting Mount Rushmore, finding his voice, signature calls, Amazon’s NBA coverage approach, the state of NBA media, Rollins’ MIP competition, and insights on the Bucks and Victor Wembanyama.
