Speaker 1: Quick updates on the second round series going on right now. Celtics,
Speaker 1: like I said, or tied one one as Philadelphia Walston
Speaker 1: a TV garden stole home court forty five points for
Speaker 1: James Harden on your head, and he said something that
Speaker 1: was so funny goes Everybody said, I couldn't be this
Speaker 1: crazy scorer anymore, and then I do it. But the
Speaker 1: reality is when I was doing it, you told me
Speaker 1: that was not a winning mentality. Then I was like
Speaker 1: putting up twenty assists on your head and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: he's not the same elite score that he used to be.
Speaker 1: That's facts. How would Boston resport us spawn? They blew
Speaker 1: the doors off the Sixers who got part of MB back.
Speaker 1: They looked not very good. It was not an MVP
Speaker 1: portion of Joel Embiid. If Joel Embiid is only like
Speaker 1: eighty percent MVP and the other twenty percent goes to
Speaker 1: like Jokic, that twenty percent was what showed up on
Speaker 1: Game two. So we head back to Philly now with
Speaker 1: the Sixers having a chance to take him please control
Speaker 1: of the series if the if they hold home court,
Speaker 1: I think this thing goes seven. A team playing the
Speaker 1: best basketball right now in the league is the Denver Nuggets.
Speaker 1: The Nuggets have taken a two to zero lead at
Speaker 1: the crib against the Phoenix Suns. Never was it particularly close.
Speaker 1: Jokic is bawling along with Jamal Murray. Even Jamal Murray,
Speaker 1: with his bad game on Game two, which I think
Speaker 1: you only had ten, still played phenomenal in Game one.
Speaker 1: Nuggets bench is just so much better than everybody else.
Speaker 1: The Suns are in danger of getting swept. I think
Speaker 1: it's a rap. I think it's night night. I think
Speaker 1: they are dead. CP three is now injured, has a
Speaker 1: groin injury. I mean, what's new, It's it's May like.
Speaker 1: If have you ever seen CP three in May healthy? Fully,
Speaker 1: I haven't without him. I don't think this is gonna
Speaker 1: be particularly close. Uh Nicks in the Heat. They are
Speaker 1: tied up one to one, but it is deflating. If
Speaker 1: you are in New York, you probably should have won
Speaker 1: game one. You barely beat the Heat in Game two
Speaker 1: without Jimmy Butler and Julius Randall has been playing well,
Speaker 1: but you're gonna need even more for him from him
Speaker 1: for Game three. Of course, like I said, the Heat
Speaker 1: were without Jimmy Butler, and that showed he's probably good
Speaker 1: to go for whatever reason. It's like five days between
Speaker 1: Game two and Game three, So Jimmy is chilling right now.
Speaker 1: Literally his ankle is in a bucket of ice right
Speaker 1: now as we speak. We talked a little bit earlier
Speaker 1: about the Lakers and the Warriors. Lakers are up one
Speaker 1: to zero. By the time this comes out, you will
Speaker 1: know whether the Warriors came back and got the second
Speaker 1: game at the Crib. If they go out and go
Speaker 1: down two zero at Chase and now they head to
Speaker 1: the Crypt, I don't know. They might be in trouble.
Speaker 1: Our dubs. I have like fifteen bets on them to
Speaker 1: win the West and to win the title, because I
Speaker 1: was not hoping that they would go one, two three
Speaker 1: Cancun against the Lakers. I'll just tell you that I
Speaker 1: was hoping either Kings or against the Nuggets. I do
Speaker 1: not think they want to go seven games with this
Speaker 1: Lakers because the Nuggets are coming. They will be fully
Speaker 1: arrested and that Aad and Braun can win either of
Speaker 1: those game sevens by themselves. And that's the danger of
Speaker 1: the closeout game. At this point, the Warriors probably gonna
Speaker 1: be considering themselves lucky to get to a Game seven
Speaker 1: they could lose in six. Jonathan Kaminga is publicly bitching
Speaker 1: about his role on the team, saying he's not getting
Speaker 1: enough minutes. He went from twenty one minutes per game
Speaker 1: when Andrew Wiggins was on walk about obviously in the
Speaker 1: regular season two under three minutes in their Game one loss. Uh.
Speaker 1: But did you see the three minutes that he had
Speaker 1: in Game one? I think he was like a negative fifteen.
Speaker 1: I think he gave up fifteen consecutive points and allowed
Speaker 1: the Kings to win that game single handedly. So sorry,
Speaker 1: Jonathan Kaminga, you just bought yourself a one way ticket
Speaker 1: to Detroit to play with your best friend, James Wiseman,
Speaker 1: because I tell you what, if, by the grace of God,
Speaker 1: Bob Myers comes back, he is not allowing that shit,
Speaker 1: and the new GM is not allowing that shit either.
Speaker 1: If Bob Myer does go, so interesting shit around the league.
Speaker 1: These playoffs are heating up, and I don't know who's
Speaker 1: gonna win. I don't know who's even good. I don't
Speaker 1: know who's even bad. That's where we're at right now.
Speaker 1: Are the heat good? I don't know are the Knicks bad,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Are the suns cooked with Kevin Durant? Probably? Probably.
Speaker 1: That's all the time that we have for the Eat Check.
