Summary

The Celtics blew a 3-1 lead at home and nobody can explain the game seven starting line-up. The Sixers got blown out by the Knicks in game one. Wemby went 0-8 from three. De'Aaron Fox put up 10 points and six turnovers; and Coach Brendan Suhr dropped a medical opinion that will have doctors arguing for weeks: calf strains don't exist. Mo and Coach break down every first-round result, go series by series on the second round matchups, and pick their predictions for who goes deep. From Cade Cunningham playing through a punctured lung to Julius Randle as the secret X factor against the Spurs - nothing is off limits. Listen or watch for the full breakdown. Topics covered: Are calf strains real? Brendan goes on record Franz Wagner, the Magic's season, and why Jamal Mosley got fired Cade Cunningham on a punctured lung - the numbers are absurd Cavs in seven: why taking seven games to beat Toronto is a problem Celtics game seven: the lineup, the logic, and the collapse Joel Embiid, Paul George, and why Philly deserved to win Knicks 137-98: the Sixers never had a chance in game one OG Anunoby is playing at an elite level Wemby goes 0-8 from three as the Wolves steal game one De'Aaron Fox: 10 points and six turnovers on his super max Julius Randle as the X factor the Spurs can't answer OKC vs Lakers preview and predictions How many subscriptions does it take to watch the NBA in America? 🎧 Listen to the full Hoop Genius Podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & all platforms. 📺 Subscribe for new episodes 2x a week.
