We start by first looking at the Nets-Bucks series, but stop to recap the NBA Draft lottery (7:01). We then delve into an interesting thought: what if the Nets did not trade for James Harden…and then we find there’s some other “what ifs” involved in that (14:34). After a break conversation about great playoff runs and 2K cheese (26:34), we talk about the future of Ben Simmons (32:52) before we give our picks for the conference and NBA Finals (50:54).
