## Resource

0:00 - Coach Sanford and Raj aren't dipping their toes in negative talk today! They want to explains how and why the Avs still have a chance even if its a small one. They go through why the Avs MUST play a full 60 minutes liek they know what's at stake. 13:53 - Coach and Raj discuss why the Avs can't give up like the Cavs did in game 4 last night vs the Knicks! Unlike the Cavs, the Avs have so much more on the line and it starts with knowing that what's impossible is still possible. The question becomes who will come alongside the stars to make sure this game remains in control. Also, will we see MacKenzie Blackwood tonight? 31:25 - There was a certain expectation level heading into the NBA and NHL playoffs that aren't being met in the conference final(s). The NBA saw a team get swept and the NHL is seeing is Stanley Cup favorite on the ropes. Does this make the playoffs better or worse when the unexpected starts to affect the expected?
