## Resource

In this high-stakes episode of The Drake Toll Show, the spotlight shines on a historic night in the NBA playoffs. The New York Knicks delivered a masterclass in Atlanta, crushing the Hawks 140-89 to clinch their spot in the Eastern Conference semifinals. We break down Mike Brown’s tactical shift that turned Karl-Anthony Towns into a facilitator and allowed OG Anunoby to explode offensively. Despite the lopsided score, a second-quarter ejection involving Mitchell Robinson proved that tensions remain high even in a blowout. The action continues with the Philadelphia 76ers forcing a Game 7 against the Celtics behind a vintage performance from Tyrese Maxey and Paul George. We also look out West, where Jaden McDaniels and the Timberwolves officially ousted the Nuggets. Rounding out the hour, we dive into the "Biggest Losers of the Day" and look ahead to the rest of MLB season with handicapper Adam Trigger. PJ Glasser also stops by to give his favorite NBA and NHL bets. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
