They also break down Jalen Duren's struggles this postseason as one of the NBA's breakout stars was benched in cruchtime of the must win game and discuss what has gone wrong for the Pistons' Big Man before debating if this team has another comeback in them as they must win their next 2 games to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. Next, Skip Bayless faces the music on his scorching hot take that LeBron James is the 9th best NBA Player ever and sparks a debate on whether or not the King's time with the Los Angeles Lakers should be considered a success as he only found postseason success inside the NBA Bubble. They also debate if the King will receive a statue with the Los Angeles Lakers after spending the final years of his illustrious career with the franchise before discussing his next moves as he ponders taking a discount to stay in LA vs taking his talents elsewhere to chase one last championship.
