Amin is back with the hot takes, and he's reminding Charlotte that her Celtics aren't untouchable, as proven in their latest game against the Miami Heat. Joel Embiid is looking like he's given up after their second straight loss. Amin argues that Anthony Davis falling into the Nuggets' bench after Jamal Murray's game-winning shot was one of the worst things that can happen to an NBA player. Charlotte and Amin close out today's episode with Bet the Show.

ODDBALL - Heat Upset Celtics, Donnie Wahlberg Responds

We find ourselves at a rare moment in human history, facing an undefinable industry worth trillions, which happens to be concentrated in the hands of a few billionaire stewards like the doomsayer Elon Musk, the evangelist Sam Altman and MMA enthusiast Mark Zuckerberg. Are they just super-villains plotting our own destruction? Washington Post columnist Josh Tyrangiel’s entire beat is artificial intelligence. So we ask him to contemplate the odds of extinction — and why A.I. might just cure James Harden's addiction to strip clubs.

With Amin out today, Charlotte has a guest co-host who's really shaking things up: Al Gorithm. Al is helping Charlotte get into everyone's algorithm using cutting-edge technology to pinpoint topics that are guaranteed to drive traffic to Oddball's various social media platforms. Is Anthony Edwards the next Michael Jordan? Do the Heat stand a chance against the Celtics without Jimmy Butler? Can the Mavs keep this pace in their series against the Clippers? And wasn't it crazy when Nikola Jokic's brother fought a Lakers fan? Charlotte also admits that it's been hard to not become a Knicks fan, and shares some footage of New Yorkers after speaking to them before game two of their series against the 76ers. 

Finally, Executive director of the National Association of Basketball Coaches Craig Robinson joins the show to talk about playing pick-up basketball with his brother-in-law, former president Barack Obama. Listen and subscribe to Craig's new podcast, WAYS TO WIN with John Calipari by going to: link.chtbl.com/waystowin?sid=oddball1
