## Resource

Adam Mares and Tim Legler break down the biggest NBA playoff games and adjustments, starting with the Philadelphia 76ers holding off the Boston Celtics and Joel Embiid’s dominant performance, while also discussing how his presence shapes Philly’s identity. They analyze the 76ers’ defensive strategy, how it disrupted Boston’s offense, and whether either team can adjust moving forward. The episode also covers the Orlando Magic taking a 3-1 lead over the Detroit Pistons, a physical and uneven series impacted by injuries, and the offensive limitations both teams are facing. They dive into Desmond Bane’s increased importance, the growing challenge of guarding Cade Cunningham, and which teams are most likely to pull off a comeback. The conversation wraps with bigger-picture playoff questions, including which teams should have made in-season moves and what the most important qualities are for winning in the postseason.
