## Resource

Brian Windhorst is joined by ESPN's Tim Bontemps and Tim MacMahon to react to the Pistons outlasting the Cavs late in the game once again including another playoff disappointment from James Harden. But, the guys tell us the bigger concern for Cleveland in the end. Next, the guys talk about the late conflict between the Lakers and the officials in OKC before talking about the impressive performance from the Thunder's depth. Then, we tackle some major injury updates in the Knicks-76ers series leading into Game 3 in Philadelphia including OG, Embiid and more. We then transitioned earlier in the day to discuss the Spurs' mature win over the Wolves before diving into some NBA drama with Giannis & the Bucks and Jaylen Brown & the Celtics. We also tackle if there may be trades to come from either situation in Milwaukee or Boston. Finally, we preview what could be an incredibly consequential NBA Draft Lottery with a possibility that could shake the foundation of the system. Learn more about your ad choices.
